About

A nobleman whose father is killed by pirates infiltrates their band as the Black Pirate, then captures a merchant ship carrying Princess Isobel.

He infiltrates the pirate band under the name the Black Pirate and offers to fight the crew's best man to prove his worth. Anders Randolf plays the Pirate Captain. In character as a pirate, the duke single-handedly captures a merchant vessel. Aboard he finds Princess Isobel, played by Billie Dove, a young woman of royal blood, and his plan becomes more complicated.
