taken aback when, for the first and last time, he had no control over the situation. He was being flanked on both sides by two enormous ships. The cannons had been put away. There was no escape and no defense.

The only reason he got that power was through financial power. And maybe some royal bloodlines. He wasn't a swordsman. Unlike Norrington.
