The Flor de la Mar was a ship which sunk off the coast of Sumatra in the early 15th century.

Many years after the sinking, a ship captained by Ji-Hun retrieved the treasure, including the Keystone, from the wreck. The Keystone was passed to Lei Bao, a member of his crew, and his ship with the remainder of the treasure was commandeered by the Chief Sea Devil in 1533. The legend of Ji-Hun and the treasure of the Flor de la Mar survived until at least 1807, when Zheng Yi Sao destroyed a statue keeping the Chief Sea Devil imprisoned in search of the treasure to pay off a ransom from the Black Flag Fleet. Together with Ji-Hun, the Thirteenth Doctor, Yasmin Khan, Dan Lewis, and Lei Bao's descendant Ying Ki, Zheng successfully fought several Sea Devils for possession of the Keystone and the rest of the ship's treasure. The Keystone was used to seal the Sea Devils back underwater, while the remainder of the treasure was used by Zheng to pay the ransom.
