Known as "the terror of the South China Sea" and possibly the most succesfull pirate ever lived.

Ching Shi was abducted from a brothel boat, became a pirate and formed a confederation of all the pirates in the Cantonese area of Southern China. But what is actually true in this crazy tale? This episode includes many names for the same women (so pay attention), and us trying to make sense of what is true and what is false.
