What kind of profession do I want to create? A profession with infinite possibilities. The name of this profession... well, after breaking through to a 'Wushi', let's traditionally call...
"The cooldown period from the fourth level to the fifth level is one month. It's just enough time for one sea voyage."
Zhang Yue recalled that a trip to sea could last as long as a month or as short as one or two weeks, with a rest period of one or two months.
"Since I'm disguised as Zhang Yue, I have to act thoroughly and not let it fall apart. Let's go to that casino first and pass on the information."
Although Chen Mo was not an agent and had not received special training for this kind of multifaceted spy, his special forces training covered some of these skills. Combined with his Dacheng disguise skills and Zhang Yue's memory sharing, it was not a problem for him to disguise himself as Zhang Yue.
When "Zhang Yue" returned to the base, it was already past three in the morning. Although "Zhang Yue" was cautious, he was still caught red-handed by Geng Bo.
"Zhang Yue, where did you go so late at night?"
"Boss, I, I just got up to go to the bathroom and then I'll go back to bed right away."
"Getting up at night?! Are you sure you're not going to the treasury?!"
"Boss, I won't dare to do it again next time!"
Geng Bo looked at "Zhang Yue" silently. "Zhang Yue"'s body was shaking more and more, and he looked very frightened.
"From today on, you are not allowed to leave the base, otherwise, you will leave the Octopus Pirates."
"Boss, don't chase me away. I won't do it again! Seriously, I swear!"
"Okay, go get some rest."
"Yes! Boss! Thank you, Boss."
Looking at Zhang Yue's background, Geng Bo muttered to himself
"You're the person I least suspect, I hope it's not you!"
Chen Mo breathed a sigh of relief only after returning to Zhang Yue's house.
"Finally passed."
Although he was confident in his disguise, he still felt a little nervous when facing a tyrant and thief like Geng Bo.
Three days later, the Octopus Pirates set out to sea again.
"Brother, who is our target this time? Why are you keeping it so secret? You didn't tell me before we set out, and now we're out at sea, you still haven't told me. Is the boss still mad at me?!"
"Angry at you? How could that be? Did you do something to upset the boss again?!"
"No, no, how is that possible?"
"Hehe... I still don't know you. Did you sneak out to gamble before leaving and get caught?"
"Ah?! You, second brother, how did you know? Were you also there at that time?"
"Of course I'm not here. Do you have anything else to do besides this?"
"Hehe... that's right. Alas, I also know that gambling is a scam, but I just can't control myself and always want to play a few rounds. Besides, don't you know me? I know my limits. I always leave after losing everything. I have never borrowed money from loan sharks, don't worry."
"We know you know your limits, so we didn't force you to quit gambling. Otherwise, with the boss's methods..."
"Brother, my dear brother, please help me. This is my only hobby. If I lose it, what's the point of living? Besides, don't you know how I handle things? For example, with the recruitment, even if I lose a lot of money, I didn't touch a single cent of the money the boss gave me! This shows my determination, right? Brother..."
"Okay, shake it another way. I get it. I'll come over and plead for you later. Okay."
"My second brother is still the best to me."
Jiang Zhe shook his head and went into the captain's room. Seeing Geng Bo still frowning and looking worried, he asked
"Boss, what are you thinking about?"
"Oh, nothing. What's up?"
"What could possibly happen to me? It's all Zhang Yue's fault. He said he made you angry, so he asked me to plead for him."
"This kid," Geng Bo said helplessly
"I've always wanted to get him to quit gambling, specifically putting him in charge of recruiting, letting him reap the benefits so I could teach him a lesson, but I never managed to do anything. My plan to teach him a lesson has been thwarted. The day before yesterday, I repeatedly warned him to cultivate his character and not leave the base in the days before going out to sea, but he still slipped out to gamble in the middle of the night. I was so angry. Forget it, I won't talk about him anymore. It makes me feel bad. Jiang Zhe, look at this..."
"This is... Crescent Island? Are we going to rob Crescent Island?"
"Well, you remember the dementia incident at sea a while ago."
"Of course I remember. I heard that the pirates who didn't return at that time lost their minds and frantically attacked the nearby villages and towns on the small islands. Many pirate groups were wiped out. Fortunately, we happened to be resting on Shiraki Island, otherwise our Octopus Pirates might have been eliminated. It was simply a punishment from heaven for us pirates. I was really confused for a while. Why are you talking about this suddenly? Is this related to Crescent Moon Island?"
"I got the news that the Brotherhood Pirates were completely wiped out."
"What? The Brothers Pirate Group was completely wiped out?! No way! Although they're a little weaker than us, they're also a well-known pirate group that roams the East China Sea! How could they be completely wiped out?! Could it be because of that dementia incident?"
"The information I received is that the Brotherhood Pirates are gone."
"real?"
"real."
"Who wiped them out?"
"I don't know exactly what happened. The information I received is that they were completely wiped out after going to Haiya Island."
"Haiya Island? That's a big island in the easternmost part of the East China Sea! The Brother Pirates have really lost their minds and actually went to Haiya Island to rob?" Jiang Zhe shook his head, feeling sorry for the Brother Pirates. Then he was startled and said with shining eyes
"So, the Crescent Island of the Brotherhood Pirates is deserted. That was their home base, and the wealth accumulated over generations and decades is now ownerless. It's like picking it up for free! But, how did they get this information? Is it reliable? If there's no danger, why don't they just pick it up?"
Geng Bo looked up at Jiang Zhe and said
"Let's first look at the source of the information. I can guarantee the accuracy of this information, but I can't guarantee its uniqueness. Do you understand me?"
Jiang Zhe nodded.
"I see. This means that other pirate groups may have received this information and will compete with us!"
"That's right. That's why I've been hesitant. However, I lost a lot of money last time I went out to sea. I have no choice. Although it's dangerous, I have no choice but to go to Crescent Island and try my luck."
"Boss, you're just too cautious. We're pirates, pirates who risk our lives. When we go out to sea, there's always danger. Just like last time, if we'd attacked head-on, we might have a chance of winning, but Boss simply chose to retreat. He gave up! Alas, there are many such cases. Guan'er, I know you care about us brothers, but we're pirates, we're the Octopus Pirates, big octopuses, not small shrimps. We can't always retreat without a fight!"
