Chapter 229 School of Fish
If the fish jumps out of the water, it means that it is struggling very violently!
And Tony has only shortened the distance by five or six meters from the first tens of feet to the present!

You must know that the explosive pull of such a huge fish is very huge. It is very difficult for Tony to force him onto the boat by manpower.

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

Use the lateral position to resolve the direct pulling force of the big fish, and move sideways repeatedly to consume its physical strength!
If we say that humans are inferior to 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 freeing hands and walking upright, human internal organs are the only ones that are not squeezed among animals. They have a good chest cavity and well-developed sweat glands, which can provide excellent heat dissipation and recovery performance for the lungs.

This allows humans to have very strong endurance.

Continuous high-speed movement, continuous explosive power, crawling, amphibious, and fish are much weaker than terrestrial warm-blooded animals. They are all three-axes for predation, and they will be useless when they are used up.

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

Especially fish, so their fighting or predation and escape are pulse-like, violently tossing a few times and then resting, and they are basically slaughtered during the intermission.

However, tuna has red and white muscles that are much higher than other fish in lactic acid metabolism, endowing tuna with outstanding endurance, which also allows tuna to recover quickly after chasing prey or avoiding enemies.

Tony started to take the figure-of-eight route, which could better squeeze every bit of strength from the bluefin tuna and not give it any chance to breathe.

When it showed weakness, it was time for him to win with one blow.

The night was dark, the waves were choppy, the low visibility and the waves provided him with some challenges.

For Tony though, this only adds to his excitement.

"Calcifer!" Tony finally couldn't help calling out to Calcifer, "Help me speed up the castle and walk in circles."

All his strength is used to support the fishing rod, and sometimes he can't slip up at all. It is a good choice to rely on Calcifer.

Calcifer was also willing to participate. While the castle was moving, Tony also used the sea pole and fishing boat in his hand to take the opportunity to reel in the line.

Half an hour passed, and Tony was sweating profusely from exhaustion.

The huge blue-black shadow also gradually shortened from 25 meters to 15 meters, and finally shortened to 5 meters!
It slapped violently in the water, and even splashed the sea water on Tony's body and the grass.

It's also fortunate that this is a grassland, so he won't lose his grip because the ground is wet by sea water, otherwise he will be pulled into the sea by fish.

There was a crash of the waves.

Tony took the opportunity to pull the sea pole again, slammed the fishing reel with his left hand, and the bluefin tuna was successfully pulled to one meter.

Shaar was already waiting on the side with a harpoon at the moment. Under Tony's gaze, he threw the harpoon directly, and then pulled it up.

As the fish that had wrestled with Tony for more than half an hour gradually revealed its figure, both Isabel and Alicia gasped.

The same is true for Bobby, who is observing this side with a telescope.

This is a huge beast that is more than two meters long and about one meter wide. It is definitely the biggest fish they have ever seen, bar none.

It looks like a spindle as a 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 and black, with two small silver pectoral fins on each side.

The chest scales of bluefin tuna are particularly large, shining silver, and look like a thick and solid metal armor. When it transitions to the abdomen, it becomes white, and there are two sword-like pelvic fins underneath.

Compared with the stout body, the root of its tail is very thin, the tail fin is crescent-shaped, and the black bony ridge of the caudal peduncle provides a strong swinging force for it.

Its fish head looks very cute, without the viciousness of the top predator in the ocean. It has a pair of big white and black eyes, piercing with energy.

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

Tuna breathes differently than other fish.

When they swim, they open their gill covers to allow seawater to flow directly through their gills.

For animals adapted to high-speed swimming, this is obviously a very efficient way of breathing, but its disadvantages are also obvious:
They need to swim constantly to breathe.

Once stopped, it will immediately die due to the loss of oxygen. Perhaps this is why the meat quality of tuna is so special.

"Whoo~"

Tony discarded the fishing rod and slumped on the ground like a deflated ball, but his joy would not disappear because of exhaustion. He looked at the big fish in front of him, laughed loudly, and then shouted.

"Cool!"

"How should I eat such a big fish?" Alicia said.

"It must be sashimi!" Tony said without hesitation, "This kind of fish is the most perfect sashimi. I brought wasabi."

Then he got up and took out a bottle of wasabi from the box.

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

"It's sashimi." Char said.

"Raw food?" Alicia raised her eyebrows.

"Taste it and you'll know." Xia Ya stretched out his hand, "Give me the knife."

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

Some ice cubes were conjured in the plate, and the fish slices were placed on the ice cubes.

This fish looks very beautiful, without any blood, with beautiful lines, layers of fat and pink flesh, with some tendons.

Normal fish is white meat, but tuna is more like red meat because it contains more hemoglobin.

Xia Ya picked up a piece of fish and dipped it in mustard, then handed it to Alicia, "Try it."

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

If we say that before this, the freshness and sweetness of the grouper's flesh was a metaphor, but now it is an adjective. She actually tasted the freshness and sweetness in the raw fish.

Of course, if it's just the fish, it can only be said to have a good taste, but with the mustard, it's different, or maybe the mustard covered up the fishy smell, and she didn't taste the fishy smell at all.

A pungent rush rushed straight into the nostrils. While the pungent energy had not dissipated, I took another sip of Dionysus rum, and the spirit entered my throat. The fresh and spicy mixed with the sweet and spicy alcohol made the cerebral cortex slightly numb.

There was a sense of joy all over the body.

The fishermen who were looking at this side not far away also saw the scene of them enjoying tuna, and it was a little silent.

They all had a panoramic view of the scene where humans wrestled with giant sea beasts just now.

They are all fishermen, so they know better than anyone how incredible it is to catch such a huge monster with a fishing rod.

Whether it is luck, strength, skill and preparation are indispensable.

"That's how big a blue fin is eaten?" A person said regretfully, "It's a pity, if it can be sold in the market, it will be worth a lot of money."

"People don't care about that little money."

"It actually caught them." Old Burke murmured absentmindedly, "What is the origin of this group of people?"

But then, in the darkness, he saw the lights of some other kerosene lamps.

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

"Who is it?" Bobby asked.

"Old Sassoon, old Morrie, and other people's old buddies, I guess they all saw it too." Old Burke said, "I guess they were also attracted by that light."

He was talking about fishermen nearby.

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

There are many pirates nearby, they dare not come out to fish during the day, only dare to come out at night.

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

So the old Burke obviously also read the meaning of the boat opposite, he grinned and said.

"The old shark was laughing at me.

It is said that I have been fishing for most of my life, and I am not as good as a young man. "

He snorted, "It's not like he caught it, so why are you so proud?"

He looked at Bobby, ready to ask him to respond to the boats on the opposite side.

But the next moment, the lights of the kerosene lamps flickering from the boat not far away caused his eyes to froze for an instant.

The lights went out at that moment, including the lights that lit up around.

His expression changed, and he turned his head to face Bobby.

"Quick! Turn off all the lights!"

Bobby's reaction speed was also very fast, and he extinguished all the kerosene lamps.

For a moment, the entire sea was pitch black and silent.

Against the backdrop of the distant castle courtyard, the brilliance became more and more conspicuous.

Old Burke's expression was ugly.

Those signals just now mean that someone found the trace of the pirates.

This shows that the pirates are already nearby.

"Damn it, it's fine that these bandits come out during the day, but they also come out at night." Bobby said with red eyes and gritted his teeth, "Are they going to survive!?"

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 murmured softly, "It seems that Mafia should have influenced them."

Bobby looked at the light in the distance, "What should they do, should we remind them?"

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

"I can't remind you anymore." Old Burke said in a low voice, "They have already been discovered by pirates. If we drive the boat over, the pirates may have already driven here. Let's get out of here quickly and don't get involved."

Bobby also knew that in such a situation where he could not protect himself, he couldn't care about the life and death of others.

He looked not far away, then sighed, and told the rest of the sailors to steer the boat away.

"How should we eat such a big fish?" Alicia asked, looking at the tuna on one side.

"Give it to the students," Tony said. "It's such a big fish, it's enough for everyone."

Isabel smiled, "You're still being generous."

"Of course, I'm a good teacher." Tony raised his eyebrows and said, "Put this fish on the table in the auditorium and eat it now."

Shaar smiled, he could already hear Tony's abacus.

Suddenly, he seemed to have noticed something, raised his eyebrows slightly, closed his eyelids slightly, and said with a smile.

"It looked like we were lucky tonight.

Whatever you say you will encounter. "

Tony also noticed something strange around him.

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

The ship was about a medium size, about the size of a castle. The people on board seemed to have been at sea for a long time, their skin was tanned, and their clothes hadn't been washed for a long time.

Some wore turbans, while others grinned, showing their large yellow teeth missing a few teeth, and skull flags fluttered in the sea breeze.

These ships surrounded the castle, and there was no direction to escape.

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

"All countries have actually sent troops to fight against the pirates here, but every time they can get up 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 to fund these pirates."

"It's not surprising." Tony nodded.

After a pause, he asked, "Am I coming?"

"No," Alicia said, "to try out my new magic, I called some friends over..."

Some distance away, the fishing boats obviously saw the pirate ships in the light.

"The clothes of these people should look like rich people. They should be fine. They should be kidnapped and ask their families for ransom." Old Burke murmured softly, "But I see that there seem to be two people on the deck. A very beautiful woman."

He didn't continue talking, but everyone knew what the ending of this group of people would be like.

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

How many people killed by these pirates and burned ships are sleeping in this ocean.

"Let's go." Old Burke said calmly, "Let's leave as soon as these pirates are attracted. If we can find the government, we can save them."

But suddenly.

A person on the boat seemed to have seen something and exclaimed.

"Old Burke! Look below!"

Old Burke lowered his head.

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

In the sea below their boat, some lights were faintly visible.

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

The sea became more transparent due to these lights, which allowed them to see the source of the light, which was the schools of fish that glowed one after another.

These schools of fish gathered from all directions and rushed towards the group of pirates.

The fishermen on these fishing boats stared at this scene with wide eyes.

They have fished for so many years at sea, and they have never seen such a sight.

The sea they were extremely familiar with in the past has become extremely strange at this moment.

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

Instead, he was pulled into a fantasy dreamland.

"Woo~"

A melodious and ethereal whale cry came from under the sea. This long cry pierced the soul, making people's minds involuntarily see the vast abyss of the deep sea and the giant beasts wandering in the deep sea...

The old Burke was pulled out of his daze by the sound, and under his gaze, there seemed to be some huge monsters surging among the glowing fish.

And the number is huge.

The group of pirates apparently also noticed this scene, but they obviously didn't realize that the danger was approaching, but looked at the sea with a little excitement.

Some even have their nets ready to scoop up the glowing fish.

But the next moment.

"Peng!"

The sea water splashed, and with the melodious long cry of the whale, under the terrified eyes of the pirates.

A nearly 30-meter-long blue whale rushed straight out of the sea and dumped towards their boat.

"boom!"

The terrible weight of 170 tons fell heavily on the large wooden structure ship, sawdust splashed, and the whole ship began to crack from the middle to the surroundings, 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 up to rescue.

But then—

"Wow!!"

Dozens of blue whales rushed out from the bottom of the sea, and a boat even hit two or three blue whales. As the largest species on this earth, just its weight is enough to be the most powerful weapon.

Some smaller ships were even directly hit by fish tails.

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

After humans living on land fell into the water, they were no match for these ocean overlords at all.

Soon, these pirates completely disappeared on the sea surface, leaving only some sawdust and ship wreckage floating on the sea surface.

The dark clouds covering the moonlight did not know when to disperse.

A full moon shone on the sea, and with the fluorescent fish, they could see the appearance of the "ship" more clearly.

It couldn't be called a boat at all, the shape was the weirdest among the boats they had seen, and these chimneys were emitting black smoke.

Bobby came back to his senses from the shock, and quickly picked up the binoculars. He saw a few fishing boats in the distance looking at him with binoculars.

Obviously, they also saw that scene just now.

Looking at the expressions on their faces, Bobby felt that their mood should be the same as his mood at this moment.

The shock was indescribable.

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

A woman in the courtyard came to the fence, and through the moonlight and fluorescence, Bobby finally saw the appearance of that person clearly.

His eyes widened slightly, and his breathing stagnated slightly.

The silver-white long hair was loosely scattered behind her head, and the soft moonlight seemed to crush all the tranquility and swayed on her hair.

Alicia didn't have much European ancestry, and her skin didn't look like the pink-white with large pores of Europeans, but a cold white that was biased towards Asia.

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

He has never seen such a beautiful woman, who is not like a mortal creature...

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

Under the eyes of people on the surrounding fishing boats, a blue whale floated out of the water and approached the fence.

And the woman slowly stretched out her hand to touch its chin.

People's breathing stagnated slightly, their eyes slowly opened wide, trying to engrave the scene in front of them deeply in their minds.

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

It's like a queen putting a sword on the shoulder of a knight who kneels to herself to award honors.

It is also like a goddess of the sea giving blessings to her loyal followers.

Countless schools of fish surrounded it, emitting holy light.

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