Chapter 285 Good luck always favors Hanhan [Three in One](1/2)
Skyler was still spending his annual vacation leisurely. Somewhere 10,000 meters below the Red Earth Continent, in Fishman Island, it was very lively, or rather...chaotic.
Jinbei stood in Fishman Street, with gold and silver jewelry, Baileys and even fabrics placed in front of him. It was as if he had placed everything in his home, the things he had bought and sold in his life over the years, and the income he earned from being a guard at Ryugu.
In front of him were countless "friends" from Fishman Street. Those who played, grew up, and fought together in Fishman Street, some eventually became friends, and some became "enemies."
At this moment, these people were making a lot of noise, because today was the day for Jinbei to go to sea. Jinbei looked at the people in front of him and said: "Dear friends and seniors, I, Jinbei, have been taken care of by everyone for many years.
Today I am leaving Fish-Man Island. These things are all the things I have earned over the years. They were obtained through the abilities taught to me by everyone in Fish-Man Street. Today... I hope everyone can accept this gift from me. Compensation!"
After saying that, Jinbei knelt down and looked at the old or middle-aged fish-men in front of him. It was these people who had pulled him up, taught him fish-man karate, and taught him domineering, making them his biggest helpers today.
Although there were many curses in the crowd in front of him, Jinbei just listened, then closed his eyes and leaned over.
"Bang~bang~bang~"
He kowtowed three times and straightened his back. Just when he was about to say goodbye and leave, a harsh voice came from the crowd.
"Jinbei! Your life is also given to you by Fishman Street!"
Jinbei clenched his fists suddenly. He recognized the voice as Aaron, but he did not answer. He stood up again and turned around. Aaron's voice came again:
"Okay! You don't want to keep it! You should keep the clothes you are wearing with Fishman Street, right?!"
"Aaron, what do you want to do?!"
An old fishman next to him yelled at Aaron, and Aaron showed a disdainful smile on his face and said: "He said he wanted to keep everything he earned in Fishman Street. Why, this dress is not Already?!"
Beside him, some fish-men who were also dissatisfied with Jinbei's betrayal of Fish-Man Island also shouted: "Aaron is right, he said he wanted to stay as compensation, what, did he go back on his word? !”
"Yeah, Brother Tiger hasn't smiled since he came back. It must be because of that bastard Jinbe!"
Hearing these voices, Jinbei kept taking deep breaths and panting, trying to suppress the anger in his heart. There were also some people in the crowd who kept saying good things to Jinbei.
After all, is Jinbe's move... really a betrayal of Fish-Man Island? In fact, some people can understand it.
Ever since Princess Otohime returned from the World Conference, she has continued to promote peaceful coexistence with humans. The fish and mermaids rescued by Skyler have also continued to popularize the concept that humans are not necessarily evil to their companions.
On the upper level, even most murlocs and merfolk were convinced because they could see clearly.
But in this Fishman Street, there are not many people who can understand it. After all, a fishman born in Fishman Street may never leave the Fishman Street in his life. He just fights with others all day long and develops a violent temper.
Stubborn, they regard being conservative as loyalty. Even if they have never been in contact with humans in their lives, they still believe that humans are sinful. Even if humans do good things, they must have other motives!
The few people who could understand Jinbei's plan to leave Fish-Man Island and join the navy to help Princess Otohime were unable to sort out these thoughts because of their low level of education.
Therefore, what was originally just a quarrel between Aaron and the others turned into a quarrel between two concepts. Jinbei saw this, feeling touched and disappointed. He raised his hand and said:
"Everyone, stop making noise!"
His voice was loud, and everyone looked at him. Jinbei stared at Aaron with his eyes. Aaron was a little hairy because of Jinbei's stare. When he was about to say something, Jinbei took the initiative and said:
"Do you want my clothes? Here they are!"
As Jinbei spoke, he took off the clothes with the same name as his and threw them towards Aaron. Aaron caught them blankly and looked at Jinbei who only had a piece of crotch cloth left.
Jinbei pointed to his crotch cloth and said, "Do you want this one?!"
Aaron shook his head subconsciously, and Jinbei took a step forward, his momentum erupting. He had never shown such a fierce aura to his peers in Fishman Street. He was about to leave at this time, and it was also the first time that he broke the rules.
Jinbei stared at Aaron and said: "I can also keep my life, come on, keep my life!"
With that said, Jinbei directly opened his arms, completely exposing his torso in front of Aaron, and said: "Why don't you do it?! Are you afraid of me? Ah?!"
Aaron took a step back. Then, the ridicule from the people around him made him blush. He picked up the knife of a companion next to him and slashed at Jinbei. Jinbei did not dodge or even make any defensive movements.
"Asshole! Stop!"
Suddenly, a roar sounded.
"Danglang~"
Aaron's body trembled and the machete fell to the ground. He looked back and saw Tiger striding over with an angry look on his face.
"Big brother, he..."
"Bang~"
Tiger didn't listen to Aaron's words and hit him in the face with an iron fist. Aaron fell to the ground, covering his face and looking at Tiger in disbelief.
Tiger didn't bother to look at him, he bent down, picked up the clothes Jinbe had left, patted them, and said, "Jinbei, your life is not wasted here!"
Hearing Tiger's words, Jinbei also realized that he had indeed been reckless just now. The distrust between his fellow tribesmen made him so angry that he lost his mind.
"I know... Boss Tai."
"Put it on."
Tiger said, passing the clothes in the direction of Jinbei. Jinbei nodded, put the clothes on again, and then looked at Tiger and said: "Boss Tai, then I... set off."
"Don't come back like a loser!"
Jinbe clearly saw that when Tiger said "loser", he pointed at Tiger himself. Jinbe gritted his teeth, nodded, and said: "Boss Tai, I will definitely do something great and come back!"
"Let's go!"
"Yes! Boss Tai!"
After Jinbei finished speaking, he turned around, walked out of Fishman Street, and came to a small boat in the port. The boat was already coated with film. Jinbei stepped in. The bubbles shook, but did not burst.
Standing on the boat, looking at Tiger who had been escorting him, Jinbei waved his hand, and then... set sail!
The boat is swimming in the treacherous and changing deep sea, surrounded by Neptunes. If it is on the surface of the sea or in shallow seas, a strong person will not be afraid of Neptunes, and even kill Neptunes like chickens.
But this is the deep sea. Here, no one wants to provoke the Neptune. After all, the Neptune may just turn over, and the turbulent currents will break the fragile coating on the hull.
In the deep sea of 10,000 meters, no one can survive without the protection of coating.
Of course, the survival difficulty of fishmen will be lower, because they can breathe through gills and will not die suddenly due to lack of oxygen or water pressure, but if no one can rescue them in time, they will die quickly.
After all, the deep sea is not only a danger to the Neptunes, various ocean currents and other objects driven by the ocean currents may directly kill them.
Therefore, even if he was confident in his own strength, his racial advantages would allow Jinbei to survive in the deep sea for a period of time, but Jinbei still operated the boat very carefully.
His natural sensitivity to water flow allowed him to avoid many dangers. Everything in front of him, from the light before leaving Fish-Man Island, to the darkness after leaving Fish-Man Island, and now, he saw a glimmer of light again.
Jinbei knew that this was a signal that he was about to reach the sea. Even though he had never been on the sea before, the old people, including his Tai boss, had told him so.
"Wow~Boo~"
The sound of ocean waves! And the sound of bubble wrap bursting!
Jinbei squinted his eyes because his eyes were directly illuminated by the sun, but he did not think of looking away. This was the first time he could see the sun so "closely" and so clearly.
He breathed greedily. The somewhat cold and damp air felt the same as the seabed, but it felt different everywhere!
"The sea! It turns out that the sea that humans see is like this!"
Realizing that his eyes were stinging, Jinbei shifted his gaze. The glare in front of his eyes disappeared and he saw the sea surface. He showed a mouth full of fangs and a big smile.
Originally he was standing on the deck, but now he sat down and half-lyed on the deck, enjoying the sun's rays. He felt the warmth of the sun for the first time. Although it made his skin feel a little uncomfortable,... This feels good.
After playing alone for a long time, Jinbei finally remembered the purpose of his trip. He quickly leaned over to look for the record pointer, but... there was nothing on the boat except him!
"Forehead..."
A blush of embarrassment suddenly appeared on the blue skin of Jinbei's cheeks. He scratched his head, as if... he had thrown the record pointer into Fishman Street.
At this time, there were 10,000 meters under the sea. After sending Jinbei away, Tiger, who had been standing at the port for a long time, also returned to the Fishman Street. As soon as he entered the Fishman Street, a fishman came over with an object and asked. road:
"Boss Tiger, what do you think this is? I've never seen this thing before, what's the use of it?"
Tiger is the only one among them who has been to the sea. People think that he is well-informed, which is indeed the case, and Tiger also likes this feeling of solving puzzles for his companions.
He took what the fishman handed him, and it was a small round ball, connected to a watch-like dial and a belt. The ball was transparent, and there was something with two edges inside, which was swaying weakly.
"This, this, this..."
Tiger was suddenly shocked, startling the fishman, and said quickly: "This was left by Jinbei, could it be some kind of dangerous item?!"
"No...this is the record pointer..." Tiger explained simply, while flipping the record pointer, he murmured: "No way? It shouldn't be, right? Damn it!"
Seeing the G-5 written on the back of the pointer, Tiger's eyes instantly went dark. That bastard Jinbe really left the record pointer for G-5 on Fishman Island!!!
"Where did you find it?"
Tiger asked eagerly, and the fishman said: "It just fell off when Jinbei took off his clothes, and no one cared..."
"Asshole Aaron!!!"
Tiger was incompetent and furious, but Jinbei on the sea was not so panicked at this time, although Tiger told him that it was important to record the pointer, because without the pointer, you would not know the direction of the destination.
But... wouldn't it be nice to just ask for directions? Jinbei, who has lived on Fishman Island for half his life, thought of this.
Therefore, Jinbei smiled again, opened his hands, and the webs between his fingers made his hands the two most useful oars. With his huge strength, the boat swam quickly.
Finally, after one day and one night...
The hungry Jinbei saw a small island in front of him, which seemed to be inhabited. He quickly rowed to it, but when his boat stopped, he remembered that all his Baileys were left in Fishman Street.
Before Jinbei set out, he had never thought that the sea could be so vast. He rowed for a day and a night before he saw traces of human life, but... he had no money...
But Jinbei still went to the island. Even if he couldn't buy food, he at least had to ask for directions, right?
"Hello!"
