While Feng Ye was working on his boat, he unexpectedly encountered other boats.
He spotted the lights on the ship from afar; it seemed to be in operation as well.
Nowadays, most ships don't go far and gather in the sea area within an hour's sailing distance, so it's not surprising to encounter one.
Most ships are fine; once they see someone, they'll keep their distance and won't intrude into their shipping lanes.
Most people don't intentionally cause trouble.
Of course, it cannot be ruled out that there will be some who are more domineering and deliberately cause trouble.
Although they were operating in the same sea area, Feng Ye did not attempt to drive them away and continued to work slowly around the two islands.
When it was fully light, he went to the cabin and woke Ah-Can up to collect the net.
When they reached the stern, they were both somewhat surprised.
On the sea, a large fish was seen swimming at lightning speed.
Judging from its dorsal fin, which protrudes above the water like a sail, it is clearly a sailfish.
"Wow, are there a lot of fish? How come I've encountered them three times in a row?"
Hearing Ah-Can say that, Feng Ye felt the same way.
In retrospect, they encountered sailfish quite a few times.
"Brother Ye, should we try to get it up here?"
Ah-Can asked excitedly.
Feng Ye shook his head and said, "Forget it, sailfish are too dangerous. Have you forgotten how Lan Xin'an died last year?"
Ah-chan was immediately embarrassed and speechless.
He was so excited when he saw the giant marlin that he completely forgot about it for a moment.
Even now, recalling that scene still leaves me a little shaken.
He was thinking of something to put away to ease his embarrassment when he suddenly realized that the sailfish wasn't turning and was still rushing forward.
At this point, they were already very close to the Rising Sun, less than 10 meters away.
"Hey, what's that sailfish trying to do? Is it trying to attack our ship?"
He was somewhat surprised, but still managed to crack a joke.
Feng Ye also noticed the sailfish's unusual behavior, his brow furrowing slightly, a bad feeling creeping over him.
Could it be that Ah Chan's jinx really came true?
He then shook his head, thinking to himself that it was probably impossible.
They didn't provoke it, so it shouldn't attack the Rising Sun on its own initiative.
Just as he was pondering this in his heart, the sailfish suddenly leaped out of the sea and flew towards the aft deck of the Rising Sun.
The upper jaw, sharp as a sword, pierced straight towards the two of them with a whooshing sound.
"Damn, are you serious?!"
"Holy crap, get out of the way!"
Both of them were terrified by the scene and instinctively shouted something before scrambling to the side to avoid it.
"Bang!"
The sailfish crashed heavily into the cabin, its sharp upper jaw easily piercing the wooden bulkhead.
This demonstrates its incredible speed and the sharpness of its upper jaw.
Immediately, the sailfish began to struggle violently, writhing its body and slapping its tail against the deck with a loud noise.
But its struggles were in vain.
Its upper jaw pierced the bulkhead, but it also got stuck and couldn't break free.
Feng Ye and A-Can, still shaken, exchanged a glance, both seeing fear and lingering dread in each other's eyes.
Fortunately, they reacted quickly and managed to avoid it.
Otherwise, it wouldn't have been the bulkhead that was pierced, but one of them.
"Damn, what's wrong with this sailfish? Why is it actually attacking us?"
Looking at the struggling sailfish, Ah-Can said with lingering fear.
"Never mind what's wrong with it for now, the most important thing is to kill it."
"Yes, yes, yes..."
The two men quickly ran into the cabin, one grabbing a knife and the other a harpoon, before returning to the aft deck.
The sailfish is now under control, giving the two a golden opportunity.
Holding a harpoon, Feng Ye aimed at the sailfish's eye and thrust it forward.
At the same time, Ah-chan also swung his knife and slashed down at the upper jaw of the sailfish.
The most dangerous part of the sailfish is its sword-like upper jaw, which must be cut off.
The two attacks landed on the sailfish almost simultaneously.
Feng Ye's harpoon easily pierced the sailfish's eye and went straight into its brain.
But this sailfish was quite resilient; it didn't die immediately.
Because of the intense pain, it struggled even more violently, as if it wanted to pull its upper jaw off the bulkhead.
Fortunately, the knife arrived at that moment and slashed hard on his upper jaw.
Ah-chan used every ounce of strength he had.
With just one cut, he severed the upper jaw.
After succeeding, the two quickly retreated, afraid of being hit by the struggling sailfish.
Although the sailfish wasn't particularly large, only about 100 pounds, being bumped into it was still quite a shock.
With its upper jaw severed, the sailfish was freed from its restraints and struggled more easily, leaping and rolling haphazardly on the deck.
However, it was merely a spent force, a dying struggle.
The harpoon had penetrated deep into his brain, damaging his brain tissue.
Because of its struggle, blood was splattered everywhere, even on Feng Ye and A Can, who were far away.
"What's wrong with this sailfish? Why is it attacking us?"
Ah-chan asked the question that had been on his mind once again.
Feng Ye was also puzzled by this, since they hadn't provoked it.
When he turned his gaze to the sailfish whose struggles were growing weaker and weaker, he took a closer look and immediately understood what was going on.
This sailfish didn't go crazy for no reason.
Rather, they had genuinely provoked it, albeit unintentionally.
