When a fish jumps into the water, it means that it is struggling very violently!

And Tony, from the beginning of a few dozen zhang, to now, has only shortened the distance by five or six meters!

You know, such a huge fish, the pull that erupts, is very huge, and it is very difficult for Tony to use manpower to force him onto the boat.

Walking a fish is a clever way to deal with big fish.

Use the lateral position to resolve the direct pull of the big fish, and repeatedly move sideways left and right, consuming its physical strength!

If human beings are not as good as many animals in nature, whether it is strength, destructive power, or speed, but there is only one thing that is enough to stand on the top of the earth.

Thanks to hands-free, upright walking, human internal organs are the only ones in animals that are not squeezed, and a good chest cavity with well-developed sweat glands can provide excellent heat dissipation and recovery efficiency for the lungs.

This gives humans a lot of stamina.

Continuous high-speed movement, continuous explosive power, crawling, amphibian, and fish are much weaker than terrestrial homeothermic animals, and their predation is a three-plate axe, and they are scrapped when they are used up.

Once fatigued, the reaction speed will drop a lot, and the fighting spirit will completely collapse.

Fish, in particular, are pulsed to fight or prey and flee, tossing a few times and then resting, and are basically slaughtered during the interval.

However, tuna has red and white muscles that are much higher than other fish's ability to metabolize lactate, giving them the stamina to stand out from the crowd, which also allows them to quickly recover their strength after chasing prey or avoiding predators.

Tony started to take the figure-eight route, which would allow him to squeeze every ounce of his stamina without giving it any respite.

When it shows weakness, it's time for him to win with one blow.

The nights were dark, the waves were rolling, and the low visibility and waves provided him with a little challenge.

But that only adds to Tony's excitement.

"Cassifer!" Tony finally couldn't help but call out to Cassifer, "Help me speed up the castle and walk in circles." ”

He used all his strength to support the fishing rod, and sometimes he couldn't slip away at all, and using Cassifer was a good choice.

Cassifer is also happy to participate, and while the castle moves, Tony also uses his sea rod and fishing wheel to take advantage of the opportunity to reel in the line.

Half an hour passed, and Tony was sweating profusely.

The huge blue-black shadow also gradually shortened from 25 meters to 15 meters, and finally to 5 meters!

It flapped violently in the water, and it could even splash the water onto Tony's body and the grass.

Thanks to the fact that this is a meadow, he will not lose his grip because the ground is wet with seawater, otherwise he will be pulled into the sea by the fish.

A roll of the waves.

Tony took the opportunity to pull the rod again, and with his left hand, the bluefin tuna was successfully pulled to one meter.

Char was already waiting with a harpoon on the side at the moment, and under Tony's eyes, he directly threw the speargun, and then pulled it up.

As the fish, which had been wrestling with Tony for more than half an hour, gradually revealed its shape, Isabel and Alicia both gasped.

The same goes for Babi, who is looking at this side with a telescope.

It was a giant beast that was more than two meters long and about one meter wide, and it was definitely the largest fish they had ever seen.

It is like a spindle-shaped whole, with a very thick body, with two small dark black dorsal fins like sharks growing on its back, and the entire back is blue-black, with two small silver pectoral fins on each side.

The bluefin tuna has particularly large scales on its chest, glowing silver, and looks like a thick, stocky piece of metal armor that transitions to its belly and becomes white, with two pelvic fins like sword bones underneath.

Compared to its stout body, it has a small tail at the base, a crescent-shaped tail fin, and a bulging crest of the caudal peduncle with black hard bones, which provides it with a strong swing power.

Its fish head looks cute, and it does not have the ferocity of the ocean's top predators, and it has a pair of big white and black eyes, which are blazing.

And Tony's sea hook is stuck in its lower mouth.

Tuna breathe differently than the rest of the fish.

They open their gill covers while swimming, allowing seawater to flow directly through the gills.

This is obviously a very efficient way of breathing for animals adapted to high-speed swimming, but the disadvantages are just as obvious:

They need to swim constantly to breathe.

If it stops, it will immediately die due to the loss of oxygen, which is probably why the meat quality of tuna is so special.

"Whew~"

Tony dropped the rod and slumped on the ground like a deflated ball, but his joy would not be lost by exhaustion, he looked at the big fish in front of him, laughed, and shouted.

"Cool!"

"How can you eat such a big fish?" Alicia said.

"It must be sashimi!" Without hesitation, Tony said, "This fish is the perfect sashimi, and I brought wasabi." ”

With that, he got up and took out a bottle of mustard from the box.

"Sashimi?" Alicia frowned, "What is it?" ”

"It's sashimi." Char said.

"Eat it raw?" Alicia raised an eyebrow.

"Just taste it." Char held out his hand, "Give me the knife." ”

Alicia handed the knife in her hand to Char, and he directly stepped forward and cut a few pieces of fish meat in the front and middle of the tuna's belly, the fat content here can even be as high as 50%, and the price is naturally the most expensive.

Conjure up some ice cubes on the plate and place the fish slices on top of the ice cubes.

The fish looks beautiful, not bloody, with beautiful lines, layers of fat and powder, with some tendons.

Ordinary fish is white meat, but tuna is different and more like red meat because it contains more hemoglobin.

Char picked up a piece of fish meat and dipped it in mustard and handed it to Alicia, "Try it." ”

Alicia hesitated, but still took a bite, and the expected fishy smell did not come, but melted directly in her mouth.

If before this, the freshness and sweetness of the grouper's fish was a metaphor, but at this moment it is an adjective, and she really tasted the freshness and sweetness in the raw fish.

Of course, if it's just this fish, it can only be said that it tastes good, but with the mustard, it's different, or maybe the mustard covers up the fishy smell, and she doesn't taste the fishy smell at all.

A spicy breath rushed straight to the nasal cavity, and while the spicy energy had not dissipated, he took another sip of Bacchus rum, and the liquor entered his throat, the fresh and spicy mixed with the sweetness and spicinessness of the alcohol, and the cerebral cortex was slightly numb.

There was a sense of exhilaration.

The fishermen who were watching not far away also saw the scene of them enjoying their tuna, and it was a little silent.

The scene of the battle between the human and the giant beast in the sea just now, they all saw it.

They're fishermen, so they know better than anyone how incredible it is to catch such a behemoth with a fishing rod.

Luck, strength, skill and preparation are indispensable.

"So a big bluefin eats like that?" One person said regretfully, "It's a pity, if you can sell it in the market, it's worth a lot." ”

"People don't care about that money."

"They actually got caught it." Old Burke lost his mind and muttered, "What the hell is the origin of this group of people?" ”

But then he saw the light of some of the remaining kerosene lamps in the darkness.

He picked up the binoculars in his hand and looked over.

"Who is it?" Babi asked.

"Old Sassoon, old Maury, and other people's old buddies, they probably saw it too." Old Burke said, "I guess I was attracted by the light." ”

He's talking about nearby fishermen.

Soon, he noticed the flickering, rhythmic glow of the kerosene lamp not far away, which was how they were the local fishermen communicated.

There were a lot of pirates nearby, and they did not dare to come out to fish during the day, but only at night.

But fishing at night is very dangerous, and in order to take care of each other, they invented this way of typing letters by the length of the flashing lights.

So Old Burke apparently read the meaning of the boat on the other side, and he grinned.

"This old shark is laughing at me.

Say that I have fished for most of my life, and I am not as good as a young man. ”

He snorted, "He didn't catch it, what are you proud of?" ”

He looked at Babi and was about to ask him to respond to the boats on the other side.

But the next moment, the light of the kerosene lamps of the ship not far away made his eyes freeze instantly.

The lights went out in that instant, including the lights around them.

His expression changed, and he turned to Barbie.

"Quick! Turn all the lights out! ”

Babi is also quick to react, extinguishing all the kerosene lamps.

For a moment, the entire sea was dark and silent.

The light on the castle courtyard in the distance became more and more conspicuous.

Old Burke's expression was ugly.

Those signals just now indicate that someone has spotted a pirate.

This means that the pirates are already nearby.

"Damn, even if this group of robbers haunts during the day, they even come out at night." Babi gritted his teeth with red eyes and said, "Are they still alive!?" ”

His parents were killed by pirates, so he really hated these pirates to the core.

"These days there are Mafia's boats disguised as ordinary fishermen's boats during the day." Old Burke muttered under his breath, "It looks like Mafia should have influenced them." ”

Babi looked at the light in the distance, "What should they do, are we going to remind them?" ”

Old Burke's face was a little darker, the sea breeze was blowing by his collar, and as a fisherman who had spent most of his life dealing with the sea, he seemed to be able to smell the disgusting smell of the pirates in the air.

"I can't remind you anymore." Old Burke said in a deep voice, "They have been discovered by pirates, and if we drive the ship over, it is estimated that the pirates have already rushed here, so let's get out of here quickly, and don't get caught up in it." ”

Babi also knows that he can't care about the lives of others in this situation where he can't protect himself.

He looked not far away, sighed, and told the rest of the sailors to hurry away from the ship.

"How are we going to eat such a big fish?" Alicia looked at the tuna tract on one side.

"Give it to the students." Tony said, "It's big enough for everybody." ”

Isabel smiled, "You're still weird for being generous." ”

"Of course, I'm a good teacher." Tony raised his eyebrows and said, "When the time comes, put this fish on the table in the auditorium and eat it fresh." ”

Char smiled, he could now hear Tony's abacus.

Suddenly, he seemed to have discovered something, raised his eyebrows slightly, his eyelids narrowed slightly, and smiled.

"It looks like we're having a lot of luck tonight.

Say whatever you say, you will encounter anything. ”

Tony also noticed something strange around him.

He looked around, and one ship after another was exposed to Char's light.

The ships were about medium size, about the size of a castle, and the people on board seemed to have been at sea for a long time, their skin tanned, and their clothes had not been washed for a long time.

Some wore turbans, while others grinned, revealing their large yellow teeth, which were missing a few teeth, and skeletal flags fluttered in the sea breeze.

The ships surrounded the castle and had no way to escape.

"Are pirates in the Mediterranean so rampant?" Tony muttered.

"Countries have actually sent troops to fight the pirates here, but each time they have risen again." Isabel picked up a piece of tuna and put it in her mouth, "It should be that the government here also has some forces that are funding these pirates." ”

"Not surprisingly." Tony bowed.

After a pause, he asked, "Shall I come?" ”

"No, you don't." Alicia said, "Try my new magic, I called some friends to ......"

Some distance away, the fishing boats had apparently seen the pirate ships in the light.

"These people look like they're going to be rich, they're going to be fine, they're going to be kidnapped and they want to ask their families for ransom." Old Burke whispered, "But I see there seem to be two beautiful women on that deck."

He didn't go on, but everyone knew what the group would do next.

Many people think that pirates are the freest beings in the world, but absolute freedom means absolute chaos.

I don't know how many people were killed by these pirates and burned ships in this ocean.

"Let's go." Old Burke said calmly, "While these pirates are attracted, let's leave quickly, and if we can find the government, we can save them." ”

But suddenly.

One of the men on the boat seemed to have seen something and exclaimed.

"Old Burke! Take a look below! ”

Old Burke bowed his head.

The scene in front of him made his pupils shrink slightly.

In the sea beneath their ship, some light loomed.

But as time passed, more and more gathered, more and more, and gradually lit up a large area of the sea.

The sea became more transparent because of these lights, which allowed them to see the source of the glow, which was a school of glowing fish.

Schools of fish gathered from all directions, surging toward the pirates.

The fishermen on these boats watched with wide eyes.

They had been fishing at sea for so many years and had never seen anything like it.

The sea, which they were so familiar with in the past, has become extremely strange now.

They even suspect that they are no longer in this world.

Instead, he was pulled into a fantasy dream.

"Woo~"

A melodious and ethereal whale cry came from under the sea, and this long cry penetrated the soul, and people's minds involuntarily appeared in the vast abyssal deep sea, and the giant beasts roaming in the deep sea......

Old Burke was pulled out of his distraction by the voice, and under his gaze, there seemed to be some behemoth surging in the glowing fish.

And there are huge quantities.

The group of pirates had apparently noticed the scene as well, but they had apparently not noticed the danger approaching, and instead looked at the sea with a little excitement.

Some even have nets ready to catch the glowing fish.

But the next moment.

"Peng!"

The sea splashed, and with the long melodious call of the whales, under the horrified eyes of the pirates.

A blue whale nearly thirty meters long rushed straight out of the sea and dumped towards their boat.

"Boom!"

The terrible weight of one hundred and seventy tons slammed into the wooden ship, and the sawdust flew and the whole ship began to crack in the middle of the ship, and sank into the sea as the blue whale entered the sea.

The pirates fell into the water and struggled fiercely.

Seeing this, the rest of the pirate ships immediately planned to go to the rescue.

But then—

"Whew!!"

Dozens of blue whales have washed out of the ocean floor, and one ship has even hit two or three blue whales, the most massive species on the planet, and its weight alone is enough to be the most powerful weapon.

Some smaller boats were even directly destroyed by the tail of the fish.

But the fall into the water was not the end, they were dragged directly into the water by the glowing fish, and Old Burke even saw some sharks, killer whales and other deep-sea beasts.

Humans living on land are no match for these sea hegemons after falling into the water.

Soon, the pirates disappeared completely, leaving only a few pieces of wood chips and ship wreckage floating on the surface.

The dark clouds shrouded in the moonlight also dispersed at some point.

A full moon shone on the sea, combined with the fluorescent fish, so that they could see the appearance of the "boat" more clearly.

It couldn't be called a ship at all, the shape was the strangest of all the ships they had seen, and the chimneys were emitting wisps of black smoke.

Babi came back to his senses in shock, and quickly picked up the binoculars, and he saw that there were also several fishing boats in the distance looking at this side with binoculars.

Obviously, they also saw that scene just now.

Looking at the expressions on their faces, Babi felt that their mood should be the same as his's at the moment.

The shock is indescribable.

The school of glowing fish did not leave immediately, but wandered around the strange ship.

A woman in the courtyard walked to the fence, and by the moonlight and fluorescence, Babi finally saw the man's appearance clearly.

His eyes widened slightly, and his breathing stalled slightly.

Her long silver-white hair was casually draped behind her head, and the soft moonlight seemed to crush all the silence and sprinkle it on her hair.

Alicia doesn't have much European ancestry, and her skin doesn't look like a pinkish white with large pores like Europeans, but a cold white that tends to be Asian.

The brilliance of the surrounding fish reflected on her snow-white skin, as if a layer of white light was enveloping her body, like a god.

He had never seen such a beautiful woman, not like a mortal being......

By moonlight, you can actually see clearly even without a telescope.

Under the gaze of the people on the fishing boats around her, a blue whale emerged from the surface of the water and approached the fence.

The woman slowly reached out and touched its chin.

People's breathing stagnated slightly, and their eyes slowly opened as they tried to carve the scene in front of them deeply into their minds.

It was difficult for them to describe the scene in front of them in words.

Like a queen resting her sword on the shoulders of a knight who kneels to her.

And like a goddess of the sea, she blessed her faithful followers.

Countless schools of fish surrounded it, radiating holy light.

At this moment, under the moonlight and soft fluorescence, everyone felt that this scene was as sacred as the story in the Bible.
