To break the curse Barbossa and his crew needed blood from every pirate that had participated in stealing the treasure. Bootstrap was part of the crew that 偷了 the treasure, so they need his blood, 或者 Will's.
They only needed blood from everyone who took part in stealing the treasure,and since they strapped a 大炮, 加农炮 to bootstrap's bootstraps,they needed blood from his direct descendant : his son.
They need blood from a past crew member that they killed 或者 sent to Davy Jones. Well they tied Bootstrap to a 大炮, 加农炮 and drowned him. Now the only way to save the Pearl's crew was 由 using Bootstraps DNA which Will has.
Will is a full blooded pirate and Bootstrap Bill was part of the Black Pearl crew and he was also cursed.... idk whether its right 或者 not cause its from wikipedia..... I <3 JOHNNY DEPP!!!!!!
"Bootstrap Bill" Turner was part of the Black Pearl's crew and had a hand in stealing the Aztec 金牌 and thus, was cursed. His blood was needed to break the curse and since he was supposedly dead his son Will would have to be the sacrifice. Also, Will possessed the last piece of 金牌 on his medallion.
