In this entry, we leave international waters and outsmart Captain LeFwee at his own game as we rescue Penelope.
Operation: Reverse Double-Cross
Once you find the X to get out of international waters and back to Blood Bath Bay, the fight is on.
You'll first fight the Death's Head. Here, I get lucky, and the Death's Head's cannons face me only once or twice, allowing for an easy defeat. From here, Sly gets on board the Death's Head automatically, where LeFwee seizes him for a plank walking.
At this point, insult LeFwee's creativity, make fun of his pirate talk, then mock his ability to keep Penelope prisoner. This will trick LeFwee into revealing that Penelope is locked up in his keep until she agrees to love him. After this, Sly will leap off the plank into Murray's waiting jolly boat. Row as fast you can to shore, which is up ahead.
Once on dry land, you'll need to use the same shortcut to Skull Keep that you took with Bentley and Penelope and go into the door where the treasure is. Sly will find Penelope only to learn he has fallen for an explosive trap. Meanwhile, the Cooper Gang takes their ship to harbor, but LeFwee blows the masts off. At this point, Guru and Crusher show up.
You'll need to move the left and right tentacles up and down with the left and right analog sticks, respectively, and use L1 and R1 to attack with the left and right tentacles, respectively. Watch the corners of the ship carefully and be ready to hit every guard that shows up as Bentley tries to break the four locks on the door leading below deck.
Once all four locks are broken, LeFwee catches up to Bentley and Penelope, and Sly seemingly comes back from the dead (honestly, did you think that explosive trap killed him?) and knocks LeFwee down from above with the Paraglider. As Bentley lies on the deck, Penelope produces a rapier and keeps LeFwee away from Bentley. This leads to a duel on the mast.
Use the left analog stick or D-Pad to jump and duck with Up and Down. Left and Right allow you to move across the mast. Up jumps over the low swipes, while Down ducks over the high pokes. When LeFwee is leaning away from the screen between sword swipes, press Triangle for a right swing. When LeFwee is learning towards the screen between sword swipes, press Square for a left swing. If you use the wrong swipe, it will be blocked. If you get hit, you'll be knocked back, and if you're knocked off the mast, you're doing this whole boss battle over again.
When you knock LeFwee off one level of the mast, it's down to the next level. The first level has you learning to jump and strike with Triangle, the second level has you learning to duck and strike with Square, and the third level puts it all together.
After the third level battle, you'll complete the job, Bentley finally finds true love, Captain LeFwee will be shark food, and Dimitri will be part of the team. From there...it's on to Kaine Island, where this all began...
