Chapter 3 The death knell at sea

"Mr. Gu Ming, you said that this arm was chopped, but why did the wound seem to be bitten by some vicious fish?" Yi Zhicheng never liked to beat around the bush and asked directly.

"Ah... so many years have passed, can you still see how you were injured?" Gu Ming was stunned for a moment.

"As long as you have been injured, there will be traces of injury. If I treat these scars on your body, I can also guess how they were injured." Yi Zhicheng looked at Gu Ming's scars crisscrossing on his chest with greed.

When he was just curing his broken hand, he only felt some of the memories of Gu Ming when he used the sword. Although this heavy sword technique with a big opening and closing is also good, it was not what he wanted. He wanted more ninjutsu or sealing technique.

"These? No, no, these are all men's medals. When I was in the hot spring, I brag about the capital to the girls. If you were cured, wouldn't I become a young white-faced person who had never seen blood?" Gu Ming's big head with a bearded face shook.

"Your appearance cannot be a novice." Yi Zhicheng was a little helpless, and it seemed that he could only treat his new injuries: "You haven't said what kind of beast you were bitten by."

Gu Ming looked around vigilantly: "I told you to you when you see you are in love... Don't tell others that I was bitten by a mermaid!"

"Mermaid?" Yi Zhicheng pretended to be puzzled, and he could not have imagined that Gu Ming would be so honest.

"Yes! That's right, it's the legendary mermaid with fish tails in human body and fish tails! You are also a member of our Fuxing. I don't hide it from you. In the early years, the Water Kingdom wanted to unify the sea, and the pirates were driven away without even a place to stay. Our boats often do some tricks of stealing, such as selling medicine, wine, meat, fruit, etc. for pirates, making some money to find a place to be happy, hehe... You know, those dirty dogs always have a way to get good things!"

Gu Ming had thick eyebrows and big eyes and smiled with a wicked smile. He told the well-known little secret on the ship without any mind, and told the fact that he was bitten off his wrist because he was curious about touching the mermaid's face.

"Well, do you still have any contact with pirates now..." Yizhicheng tried to ask.

"Oh, Acheng, don't get me wrong. I have never done anything to Sorry to the Kingdom of Wool. That is, our Haimen salary is too low, and life on the sea is really boring. Only our Fuxingha has lived the most casual life. Other captains are not as clever as me." Gu Ming was a little worried that Yi Zhicheng was an honest and honest man, and he didn't want to lose an excellent ship doctor.

"Mr. Gu Ming misunderstood. I'm just a little curious about these pirates... We who are still in the hospital will also steal some medicine and go home to make some plaster." Yi Zhicheng smiled.

"Hahaha... So, the pirates have been cleaned up by the Water Kingdom over the years and have been hiding. It's hard to do a small business." Gu Ming laughed at ease when he heard that Yi Zhicheng was not too rigid.

Yi Zhima was still thinking about how to speak, and see if Gu Mingmei could get a few boxes of war supplies to send to Konoha. You should know that what is given to those ungrateful wolves now will turn into water that is poured into the brain in the future by the vortex country.

It’s better to stay and expand your strength.

At this moment, a young crew member stumbled into the captain's room, pointing outside with panic on his face, and his voice was trembling: "Mist...Mist...Mist..."

"Boy, why did the turtle bite your mouth? Let me make it clear!" Gu Ming hit his head with an apple core in his hand and said angrily.

"The fog...it's foggy outside...it's so big fog..." The young crew member looked pale, swallowed, and was still panicked.

"Idiot! It's not normal to fog on the sea!..." Gu Ming suddenly was stunned for a moment, and immediately jumped from the stool: "What... it's fogging! Don't you idiots avoid it!!!"

"We...we thought it was just ordinary sea fog..." The crew looked a little aggrieved.

Gu Ming didn't care about Yi Zhicheng, and he also lost his usual calmness. His strong body knocked over things all the way in the narrow passage, attracting countless scoldings.

Yizhimai followed closely and came to the deck.

As the crew said, the sea was foggy, and it was as thick as it was covered with a layer of white gauze. The visibility was so low that it could not even be seen on the masts when standing on the deck.

"Sure enough..." Gu Ming, who had always been unruly, frowned at this moment.

"Did you encounter the Mist Hidden Fleet?" Yi Zhicheng knew that it was normal to encounter heavy fog at sea, but it would be like this that the crew was so panicked, that they must have encountered danger.

"Well... there is chakra in the fog, not natural." Gu Ming just responded perfunctorily, still thinking about how to deal with it.

"Captain... turn around and escape!" A first mate, who is also a member of the Uzumaki tribe, came and suggested.

"No! We are moving with the wind. If we want to go against the wind, it will be too much. Besides, they shouldn't have discovered us yet, otherwise they would have bumped into us long ago... What's more, they have a ripple perception barrier. If they keep moving, they might be able to get through it. If they turn rashly, they will be discovered." Gu Ming frowned.

Then he lowered his voice and ordered.

"Everyone keeps absolutely quiet! Turn off the lights! Lower the sails!"

Then the first and second mates immediately dispersed and sent the orders out.

Immediately, the people on the deck began to move. I have to say that the sailors on the Fu Star usually looked lazy and were lazy. When something really happened, they immediately showed good training. Except for the inevitable creaking sound of the wooden board, there was no unnecessary sound.

They have all heard of the terrifying fog hidden fleet. Once they are shrouded in this gloomy white fog, even the most powerful ship cannot escape, not to mention that the old man Fuxing has nothing to do with power.

As the sails descended, all the work was completed. The Fuxing, which had lost its sailing power, slowly stopped. The entire deck was left with the sound of waves hitting the side. Even people did not dare to breathe loudly, as if the rest was only waiting for the favor of fate.

And Yi Zhima never uses his life to bet on the favor of the goddess of fate, because he has always been an unlucky person who was tricked by fucked fate.

Crunch...crunch...

The waves swayed gently, making the old Fu Star's disrepaired hull make a sharp and sharp sound, which looks extremely annoying in this deadly quiet environment.

"Damn Daming... I said how many times the ship should be repaired, and I shouted that I had no money every day!" Gu Ming even dared to curse at this time.

"Can you avoid it?" Although Yi Zhicheng knew that the position would not be exposed because of this sound, he lowered the sound as much as possible.

"I don't know... I see if you have the skirt of the goddess of the sea who is desperate to lift up..." Gu Ming looked at the surrounding sea surface nervously, took the cigar into his mouth several times, and put it down again.

"Can't you do something?" Yi Zhicheng hates this feeling of waiting for death, as if he is facing the enemy's gun, but betting on his fate without bullets.

"More than ten years ago, when the Kingdom of Whirlpool and Water Country were in good terms, we invited our elders to participate in the sealing ceremony of the tailed beast. That time I was shameless and also visited the flagship Mercury of the Fog Hidden Fleet..." Gu Ming began to speak worriedly.

"I was very surprised at that time. So many ships were sailing in a sea area, surrounded by fog, and could not see anything. Why didn't they bump into each other?"

"Later, after getting drunk with their second mate, I realized that they had a ripple perception and command system. Every time they would hit the metal plate at the bottom of the ship, radiating oscillating ripples, perceiving everything on the sea surface, and then distinguishing the enemy and me according to the different reflection wavelengths, and then commanded by the spiritual magic array."

"Is the sonar radar? Does it actually have this kind of perception? Then this ripple perception... how often will they release it?" Yi Zhicheng also frowned.

"It is basically released all the time during naval warfare, and this is also called the "death knell of the fog abyss" by the pirates, because hearing the death knell basically means death."

"It's not certain that the non-combat moment is. It may knock it once an hour or it may knock it once every few hours." Gu Ming shook his head, and he couldn't say it.

"If you let the ship stop, can you hide it from the sea?"

"...I don't know that reefs and whales will appear in nearby waters. If the Perception Ninja on Fujihi's night duty is not experienced enough, it may be possible to get away with it."

The two of them were silent at the same time. They both knew that it was definitely not a good idea to hand over everything to fate, but at this time, they really couldn't do anything.

Time passed little by little, and the fog still did not dissipate. Everyone's nerves were tense to the extreme, their faces were so pale that they were scary, and their blood was almost blown to condense by the cold wind. Yi Zhicheng even felt that a scream could scare everyone's souls away.

"clang!!!!"

A dull metal bell sounded like a low roar from the abyss, and the turbulent sea surface was filled with fine ripples.

Iinomaki could sense the tremor of the hull when he pressed his hand on the deck.
