Curses echoed incessantly from the ship, but Fu Wan, hiding in the sea, remained remarkably calm after the initial tension.
She pondered for a moment, then gestured for the baby orca to come forward, and then explained her plan to it using gestures.
Once someone goes into the water, that's when the orcas will strike. They only need to bite the person and drag them to the depths of the sea to kill them.
Through the seawater, Fu Wan saw two figures descending the rope ladder.
"Sigh, Brother Dao's temper is getting worse and worse, I really can't live like this anymore."
You just saw it, didn't you? I wasn't mistaken, someone released that little beast!
"Oh, don't mention that. You know that Brother Dao's job is to get the fins of a live adult killer whale and a pair of great white sharks. He got the shark fins, all that's missing is the killer whale."
These orcas are very cunning; they finally manage to catch a small one, and then it disappears again.
They offered five thousand dollars, and now the prize is gone, leaving the brothers to starve. How could Brother Dao not be anxious and angry?
"You're right. It's all those soldiers' fault. They're always loitering at sea, interfering with our work!"
As the two talked, they approached the water's surface. Fu Wan could hear them clearly and guessed that this group of people were probably hired to hunt whales.
Seeing that the two were about to go into the water, Fu Wan patted the little orca's head, signaling it to hide not far from the propeller.
She herself hid behind the rocks, gripping a dagger and preparing to act as the opportunity presented itself.
"That's really strange, how come the propeller is made entirely of seaweed?"
The two men were good swimmers, and as soon as they came down, they could see the propeller that was tightly entangled in seaweed.
The two gestured to each other and immediately swam towards the propeller.
The baby killer whale seemed eager to try, but Fu Wan held it down, signaling it not to rush.
There were only two people there, but she saw at least five people on the boat.
That's just on the deck; we haven't even counted the cabins yet.
The two men quickly swam to the propeller and began tearing seaweed apart.
However, the knot that Fu Wan tied with seaweed was not something they could easily untie!
Fu Wan used a sailor's knot to tie the seaweed to the propeller; this knot was taught to her by Boss Fu.
This type of knot also has a name: the Zeppelin knot. It can tightly connect two ropes together.
Fu Wan threaded the seaweed through the gaps in the propeller and tied it with a sailor's knot. This knot was unbreakable and would only tighten as it was pulled.
The two tried to pull it for a long time but couldn't budge it. Since they had been in the water for a while, they had to surface to breathe and call for help.
"Wild dogs, wild dogs! Get two men to bring a knife down here, the propeller is tangled up!"
Stray dogs?
What a unique name.
Fu Wan thought to herself, but before she finished, she hurriedly held down the little orca that was trying to rush out and crash into the two of them.
Now is not the time. The best time will be when everyone who can disembark has disembarked.
After all, the more people who go into the water, the greater their chances of winning.
Hearing the shouts, two more people came down with tools. The two who had been on the boat were already floating on the surface, waiting for them.
"Hey, did you guys bring any knives?"
"We brought it, but what's with the propeller? You can't pull it with that seaweed?"
"Hey, don't even mention it. If you don't believe me, go down there and see for yourselves. That thing is completely tangled up, and you can't use your hands at all... Oh my god, what is that thing!"
Upon hearing the shout, Fu Wan's heart leaped into her throat. She had initially thought that a pod of killer whales hiding on the seabed had been discovered, but it turned out to be a ray.
To be precise, it was an electric ray that was about a meter long.
Electric rays are a type of ray, but unlike other rays, they have electric organs on both sides of their heads. When stimulated or encountering prey, they release electricity to shock the other party.

The two people in the water initially thought it was a large creature like a shark, but when they saw a ray wobbling towards them, their tension instantly subsided, and they started laughing at each other again.
"Look at you cowards! You're scared like this by a mere stingray!"
"You talk as if you weren't scared just now. Hey, the ray tastes pretty good too. How about we catch some and let Brother Dao try it to cool him down?"
"Shut up, you son of a bitch! That's a madman! It'll electrocute you bastards to death!"
As the group chatted, Brother Dao on the boat began to grow impatient.
He leaned against the side of the boat and roared, "Are you all out of your minds?! Taking this long to process seaweed?!"
"Damn it, you're all a bunch of good-for-nothings. If you haven't finished in five minutes, don't bother coming up here!"
Dao Ge was furious, and the four people in the water were even more angry but dared not say anything. The electric ray hadn't left at all, and none of the four wanted to experience being electrocuted.
However, for Fu Wan, now is the opportunity!
She patted the baby killer whale's head. Killer whales are basically immune to the electric rays' electricity. At this moment, the group's attention was entirely focused on the electric rays, and they didn't notice that a large creature was quietly approaching from the seabed.
"Why do I feel a hairy feeling on my back?"
One of the four asked in a low voice, but before he could finish speaking, he felt something bite his leg. He was about to scream in panic when a tremendous force pulled him into the water.
"Gurgle gurgle gurgle..."
"Wild dogs, wild dogs!"
"Brother Dao, there's something in the water! There's...something...in the water!"
The baby killer whale's movements startled the electric ray that hadn't yet swum away, causing the cries for help that the people were about to utter to become intermittent.
Seeing the baby killer whale emerge, the pod of killer whales that had been waiting below immediately swam up. The people, paralyzed by the electric shock, hadn't even recovered before being dragged to the seabed by the killer whales.
Although the shouts of those men weren't loud, Brother Dao happened to be standing by the boat, and he and his men witnessed the scene of those men being dragged into the sea.
"Useless idiot, damn it, there's something down there!"
Brother Dao roared, terrifying his henchmen. "Brother Dao, maybe... let's escape in a boat!"
It's sinister, so sinister!
They hadn't even seen what was in the water before four of their brothers were already dead. Brother Dao's eyebrows furrowed, and he swiftly drew the gun from his waist.
"Run! Do you think I don't want to run?!"
The propeller was tangled in seaweed!
How do I get there?
"Don't panic. I've been sailing the high seas for five or six years. I've seen all kinds of storms. Where's the speedboat on the ship? Get it out quickly, let's take that thing and go!"
"Yes, yes, and there's a speedboat too!" The underlings were overjoyed and hurriedly went to untie the speedboat that was chained to the deck.
With a speedboat, the things below definitely can't catch up with them.
However, Fu Wan was not about to let them have their way. After the little orca dragged the man to the bottom of the sea, it rushed back up. Fu Wan hurriedly pointed to the ship at sea.
Rumble it! Slam it over and let these whale-blood-stained creatures stay in the sea!
Upon receiving the command, the baby orca raised its head and charged toward the metal shell in the sea. However, another orca was faster than it. Fu Wan looked closely and realized that it was the mother orca that had been crying out earlier!
