Ruby ordered the crew to steer the Lotus Flower into the river. At that point, Jack returned to the Black Pearl as captain, and then both ships sailed toward Tortuga.
《Upon arrival in Tortuga》
When they arrived at the pirate island, Jack left Gibbs in charge of the Black Pearl and Ruby left Johari in charge of the Lotus Flower. The couple then went to a tavern that, according to Jack, sold the best rum in the Caribbean.
Upon arriving at the tavern, Jack immediately went to sit at the table he had always sat at since the first time he had visited the place, and Ruby approached the bar to negotiate for a couple of bottles of rum.
《At the bar》
Upon seeing Ruby, the longtime bartender immediately recognized her and greeted her while continuing to prepare his drinks.
Bartender: (Seeing Ruby) Captain Evans, I haven't seen you around here in years.
Ruby: (Resting her hand on the hilt of her dagger) I see that you still remember me.
Seeing the pirate's gesture with her dagger, the bartender felt great fear and put the bottle he was using to serve his drinks aside.
Bartender: (With a voice of fear) How could I forget you? The entire Caribbean knows the famous Captain Evans.
Ruby: I'm glad I haven't lost my fame despite not sailing for years.
Bartender: Beautiful dagger, by the way.
Ruby: (Takes her dagger out of its case) Do you like it? It is my most valuable weapon. After my pyrokinesis, of course. (Sets fire to the blade of the dagger)
Bartender: (More afraid than before) What... are you doing here? Can I help you with something?
Ruby: How much your best rum bottle? (Puts away her dagger)
Bartender: Normally, I sell our best rum for five silver coins, but since you're Captain Ruby Evans, I can let you have it for three.
Ruby: (Puts six coins on top of the bar) Give me two.
The bartender, seeing that Ruby paid immediately, was surprised to see that the pirate did not try to negotiate.
Bartender: (Confused, he grabs the coins) Are these coins real?
Ruby: Why wouldn't they be?
Bartender: (Surprised) You didn't try to negotiate for these bottles!
Ruby: Why do it if you already lowered the price for me?
Bartender: You're Goddess Flame! You didn't even try to fight to get these bottles for free!
Ruby: The least I wanna do right now is to fight. The only thing I want right now is a break and a bottle of rum.
Bartender: You sure you want just that?
Ruby: You were the one who said we haven't seen each other here in years. These were not easy years.
Bartender: I have to admit that I am afraid to attend to the Goddess Flame.
Ruby: And I don't blame you. I might be the Goddess of Death, but before that, and just like you, I am an ordinary person who gets tired of working so much.
Bartender: I'm coming right now with the bottles of rum.
The bartender grabbed five of the six silver coins Ruby had given him, then went to pocket the payment before returning with the redheaded pirate's order, leaving both bottles next to the coin he hadn't picked up.
Ruby pocketed the coin the bartender had left, grabbed the bottles, and headed to the table where Jack was sitting, drawing pictures on the wooden table with the edge of a knife.
Ruby placed the bottles on the table and then sat down directly in front of Jack to open a bottle and take a long sip of the drink.
