Breather Level: "New Life" is both this and a Breather Episode, since its a stage where Henry gets to assist in farming chores, where he's killing rabbits instead of humans, and cutting trees instead of blowing up ships. Until Edmund Kane's forces attacks the farm, that is.
Complete Monster: Admiral Edmund Kane is secretly in cahoots with the Spanish Conquistadors, arranging for an invasion that leads to an entire town under his rule wiped out and his army killed to one last man, Captain Henry Blake. After framing Henry as a traitor and having Henry tortured for days in his dungeon, Kane uses his connections with the Spanish to obtain a promotion, ruling over the seas with an iron fist with his army wiping out entire towns opposing his rule, including sending a platoon to attack a peaceful farming village Henry is taking refuge and having prisoners impaled on spikes to be publicly displayed outside his fortress. As Henry confronts Kane one last time and defeats him in a duel, Kane reveals his true cowardly nature by drawing a concealed pistol on Henry.
