Ji Chen immediately stood up from Alice’s lap and pulled with one hand.

Swoosh-

A large carp weighing at least six catties flew out of the water, flopping around on the fis.h.i.+ng hook.

On the other side, I_Love_Black_Stockings, who was secretly observing, felt a little uneasy when she saw that Ji Chen’s first catch was a five-catty carp.

However, she quickly shook her head with a relaxed expression.

So what if its five catties? I’ve already caught five fish, totaling about fourteen catties.

Five against one, fourteen catties against six catties.

It’s still stable, no need to panic!

In that moment, the fis.h.i.+ng hook was tugged once more, and the force felt remarkably strong, sending a tremor through her heart.

She quickly pulled and successfully added the sixth five-catty fish to her collection.

Just as I_Love_Black_Stockings felt a little proud, there was a commotion on the other side.

She turned her head to look.

Big Boss Islander was holding the fis.h.i.+ng rod, and the hook was attached to a fish that was almost as long as his forearm.

Her eyes widened.

This… must be at least eight catties, right?

She had only caught a fish of this size once before, and it took her a long time to wrestle with it before she finally caught it. She was happy for several days after that catch.

But now, the Big Boss seemed to have easily caught it?

She was a little envious…

However, l_Love_Black_Stockings quickly adjusted her mindset and comforted herself.

He’s a beginner, its normal to have good luck.

If he wants to keep catching fish, he still needs the expertise of an experienced fis.h.i.+ng expert like herself!

As long as she stays steady, she’ll be the ultimate winner!

But as soon as she calmed down, she heard another commotion beside her.

Did he catch another fish not inferior to the one before?

With this catch, doesn’t his total weight exceed hers now!?

At this moment, her mindset underwent some changes.

In less than half a minute.

Another burst of cheers came from beside her. The Big Boss had caught a twelve-catty fish.

I_Love_Black_Stockings’ face looked as if she had seen a ghost.

Are there such large fish in this pond?

Just as she was trying to collect herself, another fish took the bait on Ji Chen’s side.

This time, there were two fishes on the hook, each weighing less than five catties, but together they totaled around ten catties.

One minute later…

A fish weighing eight catties was hooked on the side.

Three minutes later…

He caught another ten-catty big fish.

As time crawled by, the jubilant cheers from beside her made I_Love_Black_Stockings feel increasingly numb.

It had been an hour since she last caught a fish, not even a small thumb-sized one!

On the other hand, it seemed like the fish on Big Boss Islander’s side were lining up underwater to bite the hook one after another.

The moment the fis.h.i.+ng rod was cast, a fish would bite immediately, and it never stopped!

Minute by minute, second by second, time went by.

Listening to the constant commotion nearby, I_Love_Black_Stockings felt that their feelings were not mutual; she only found their noise irritating.

After three hours, the compet.i.tion ended.

When I_Love_Black_Stockings and Big Boss Islander met again, both sides fell into silence.

I_Love_Black_Stockings looked at her own harvest.

Two buckets of fish, with one bucket not even full.

And as for Big Boss Islander…

There were over a dozen buckets br.i.m.m.i.n.g with fish.

Laying the results side by side, the outcome was obvious, and the winner was clear.

Ji Chen glanced at this stark contrast and almost burst out laughing, but he managed to hold it in, saying, “Looks like 1 won by a small margin.”

“Big Boss, you are really amazing, 1 admire you.” I_Love_Black_Stockings forced a smile, but no matter how one looked at it, it seemed pained and forced.

“Don’t think too much of it. 1 just had slightly better luck and caught a dozen buckets more fish than you did.”

Hearing that, I_Love_Black_Stockings felt even worse.

Fig Foss, what you said is true, but please don’t say it again next time.

The compet.i.tion ended, and it was already afternoon.

The group began to return.

On the way, I_Love_Black_Stockings asked about the upcoming trade tomorrow.

“Big Boss, the trade tomorrow will take place on the New Moon. I heard that many players will be attending, and some may have malicious intentions. You better be careful.”

Although Ji Chen wasn’t too concerned, he still nodded, “Alright, I’ll keep that in mind.”

The New Moon was now under the control of the Tidal Sea Spirit, and everything on the s.h.i.+p was within his grasp.

Furthermore, his s.h.i.+p and army were powerful enough, and with targeted measures, he wasn’t afraid of anyone causing trouble.

Causing trouble? He would deal with them.

As the two parties separated on the sh.o.r.e, I_Love_Black_Stockings continued to oversee the reconstruction of her territory, while Ji Chen and his team returned to their s.h.i.+p, preparing for tomorrow’s trade.

Early the next morning.

Eight three-masted wars.h.i.+ps set into motion, with four surrounding and guarding the New Moon, while the remaining four began patrolling the area.

On the s.h.i.+p, all pirates and soldiers heightened their alertness, and the cannons were ready to fire at any moment.

Especially the New Moon, the gunports on both sides of the s.h.i.+p were wide open, and the black barrels protruded.

Not for any other reason, but to serve as a deterrent.

The weather was also very good today, with clear skies and calm seas, providing excellent visibility.

From King Kong Island, one could see the majestic and powerful New Moon moored on the sea surface.

Even though there was still some distance, its grandeur, and mightiness could be felt at a glance.

Several players who had quite good relations.h.i.+ps came together to attend the trade.

Upon arriving at the sh.o.r.e and witnessing the New Moon, which resembled a stone mountain floating on the sea, and the three-masted wars.h.i.+ps guarding and patrolling around it, they were astonished.

“That’s the s.h.i.+p of the Big Boss Islander? The New Moon… Could it be that it’s the largest s.h.i.+p they’re talking about?”

“I never expected it to be such a ma.s.sive s.h.i.+p. I thought it was just those three-masted ones….”
