Blackbeard

Twas never pirate more feared or revered,
than that salty seadog known as Blackbeard.
With his motley band,
and ship the Queen Anne,
he sailed the high seas to treasure he steered.

hello Wren Rushing, I do not know if Long John Silver was a legend or real. He was also feared like Blackbeard. Have a nice evening my friend.

I'm not sure what kind of pirate he was, but was great at frying fish. Have a blessed day my friend!
