Lord Cutler Beckett continues his purge against piracy. Countless executions and attacks on pirate ships by Davy Jones are intended to force Beckett's victims into singing the song that will summon the Brethren Court. In response, the nine pirate lords comprising the Court convene on Shipwreck Island. However, the late Captain Jack Sparrow, Pirate Lord of the Caribbean, died without a successor, and therefore must be present. Captain Hector Barbossa leads Will Turner, Elizabeth Swann, Tia Dalma and the Black Pearl crew to Davy Jones' Locker to fetch Jack. They need the navigational charts leading to World's End, the gateway to the Locker, charts belonging to Sao Feng, pirate lord of Singapore. Elizabeth and Barbossa bargain with Feng for a ship and a crew, but Feng is furious that Will attempted to steal the charts and is holding him captive. Just then, East India Trading Company soldiers attack Feng's bathhouse. During the chaos, Will secretly bargains with Feng for the Black Pearl in exchange for Sparrow. Will wants the Black Pearl to rescue his father from the Flying Dutchman. Their conversation is overheard by Beckett's henchman, Mercer.

The crew journey through a frozen sea. Reaching World's End, they sail over an enormous waterfall and into Davy Jones Locker. There, Jack is aboard the Black Pearl, surrounded by desert and suffering hallucinations. To his amazement, crab-like creatures suddenly appear and carry the Pearl to an ocean where he is reunited with his former shipmates, although Jack and Barbossa bicker over who is captain. While seeking an escape route, the crew sees souls adrift underwater. Tia Dalma explains that Davy Jones was appointed by his lover, the sea goddess Calypso, to ferry those who died at sea to the next world. In return, Jones could step upon land for one day every ten years to be with her. But when Calypso failed to meet him, the scorned captain abandoned his duty and transformed into a monster. Elizabeth then sees her father, Weatherby Swann's soul pass by in a dinghy, murdered by Cutler Beckett after discovering that whoever slays Davy Jones by destroying the heart replaces him as the Flying Dutchman's immortal captain. Unable to retrieve him, a distraught Elizabeth vows to avenge her father's death.

The charts reveal that a green flash on the horizon signifies a soul returning to earth. When Jack deciphers a clue on it, he realizes the ship must be capsized to escape the Locker. They overturn the ship at sunset and upturn back to the living world at sunrise amid an emerald light. Upon their return, they discover the Kraken is dead; Beckett ordered Davy Jones to kill it so it could not be used against him. Shortly after, Sao Feng attacks the Pearl. He has betrayed Will and made a deal with Cutler Beckett, but Beckett double-crosses Feng. In retaliation, Feng gives the Pearl to Barbossa in exchange for Elizabeth, whom he believes is Calypso. Angry over Will's deception and to keep the crew safe, Elizabeth agrees. Jack is taken prisoner aboard the Endeavor and forms an accord with Beckett to lead his fleet to Shipwreck Island, but he escapes back to the Pearl. Will is thrown into the brig.

Aboard his warship, the Empress, Feng tells Elizabeth that Davy Jones revealed to the first Brethren Court how to entrap Calypso into human form, allowing men to control the seas. Feng is mortally wounded when Jones attacks his ship, and before dying, appoints Elizabeth his heir, making her captain and the Pirate Lord of Singapore. She and the crew are taken prisoner aboard the Flying Dutchman. Also aboard is Admiral James Norrington, who switches allegiance after Elizabeth berates him for his disloyalty, and he frees her and her crew. They escape to the Empress on the tow rope pulling it, although Norrington is killed by a deranged "Bootstrap" Bill. Meanwhile, Will, who escaped the Pearl's brig, leaves a trail of floating corpses for Beckett to follow. Jack catches him and proposes that he will sta
