Chapter 384: Get twice the result with half the effort
Kaku did not answer his words, but looked around and sighed:
"It's really prosperous. I've always heard about this place, but I've never been here once. Hey, Gabra, you're living a very prosperous life. I wonder if your strength has declined."
“Don't worry, I'm better than you!”
Gabra smiled provocatively: "Want to compare?!"
“Forget it, I'm not here to do such boring things with you.”
Kaku shook his head, "As an agent, you have more important things to do. Where is Captain Sager?"
Gabra was about to continue provoking, but he took a steady look at Kaku, frowned slightly, glanced at the people moving in front of the port, thought about it, turned around and shouted:
“You guys, work hard!”
As he spoke, he walked to one side first, passing through the port city into the royal capital.
The city was rebuilt earlier and the city walls were demolished, leaving only an arched door to separate the port area and the royal capital area.
Gabra walked in without any trouble. After some twists and turns, he walked into a deserted alley, and then he stood still.
“I'm glad your skills as an agent haven't faded away.”
Just as he stood still, there was a voice behind him. Kaku crossed his arms and leaned against the wall, looking sideways at Gabra and smiling.
“I'm also glad that your hiding ability hasn't deteriorated.”
Gabra turned around and said with a ferocious smile: "You came here in person instead of calling, and now you are hiding in a deserted place. Are you afraid of being discovered? Speaking of which, we have a lot of hidden agents here. I don't know who they are.”
Gabra is just a little stupid in his actions, but he is still very experienced in the professional level of an agent.
Kaku's actions just now made him immediately realize that something was wrong.
They agents don't have any old friendship.
Kaku must have something going on alone, but it's not through a phone call, which means that the phone bug will be monitored.
If someone arrives here and deliberately hides to avoid being discovered by others, then this matter is hidden from the World Government.
“The presence of many rats is an inevitable thing for all great pirates of this type.”
Kaku said calmly: "Especially for a pirate like the captain who doesn't care. I heard that he recruits pirates without looking at his background. He dares to use anyone."
“It's easy to use. As an agent, you have to do your best to infiltrate other people's places.
Gabra shrugged, "However, we have screening here and have a general grasp of it, so there is no need to worry about this matter."
“Don't worry, old man, we are agents, not the world government.”
Kaku said: "Captain, I have something to report. I don't have much time."
"This is the direction I'm taking you to now. Let's get out of the city first. There's still a way to go."
Gabra smiled and said, "Don't fall behind."
As he spoke, his steps flashed, and his body turned into an afterimage and disappeared.
“As I said, I'm not interested in competing with you for such boring things.”
Kaku lowered his hat slightly, and when Gabra disappeared, people followed him.
In the huge Storm City, in those deserted alleys, two afterimages are like ghosts, blowing out fast wind, blowing the curtains of the buildings around the alley, the clothes on the clothes drying rack, and the hanging noodles, one after another. He walked out of Storm City and ran straight towards the suburbs.
Above a river on the main island, in a land of green grass, Sage sat on a small horse inlaid with gems. He held a gold fishing rod painted with gold paint in his hand and looked at the river in front of him attentively. , motionless.
Beside him, B'Elanna has laid out a picnic cloth, placed a lot of exquisite food, opened another bottle of wine, filled the wine glass, then walked behind Sag and whispered:
“Sir, lunch is ready.”
“Don't worry, look.” The water surface of the river is relatively clear, and you can see the shadows of fish swimming along the river under the water.
Sage stared closely at a fish surrounding the bait and said excitedly:
“It's going to be hooked soon. Let's add a grilled fish to the meal. No. Let Marika come over. As the first fish I caught, it has the qualifications for Marika to cook it in a luxurious way!”
“Hush, lower your voice, be quiet! Hey, the two behind you, hurry up and use your strength! Urji, chant sutras, Hawkins, hurry up and start your Doro!”
Far behind him, Hawkins and Urqui stood on the left and right, looked at each other after hearing this, and sighed.
Ulki raised his hand with one hand and said: "Is this really useful? How many times has it happened that the captain and the fish have nothing to do with each other?"
“The tired Wadokana.”
Hawkins took out the tarot cards and said, "Destiny is meant to be broken. At least there is still probability!"
After shuffling the cards quickly, he reached out and pulled out one card from the top, and showed it to the outside, "In the right position, magician, you can make things get twice the result with half the effort."
Yes, he activated his ability!
Simple divination is completely useless. Even if it is Urki chanting, the probability from 1% to 2% is the same as nothing.
They settled the matter, and after returning here, they happened to rest for a while, and then went fishing with Sage.
Today is already the fifth day.
The key point is that these five days have been in the same place. Some idiot revealed that there are many fish in this river, but it used to be the private property of the nobles and was not allowed to do anything here.
But after Sage came, the ban was lifted. Although it also belonged to him, Sage did not prohibit anyone from taking nature, as long as he recognized him as the owner of the land.
So nearby villagers would come over from time to time to catch a fish, adding a bit of natural game.
After Sage came here, he saw with his own eyes that a little boy tied a rope with a crudely made wooden stick instead of a fishing line, just a simple rope, tied a small earthworm and threw it into the river. The fish is hooked.
At that time, he was jealous and immediately stationed here.
Even if he catches nothing for five days in a row, he will not get angry.
It's only been five days, and it's not just the time when I get irritable.
Children can catch anything they want. He is a master of fishing. From the fishing rod to the bait to the equipment, they are all at the master level. How could he not catch anything?
A temporary defeat is nothing, what Sag has is perseverance!
He even brought Hawkins and Urki to increase his strength.
Then.
These two people waited there with him for five days, but nothing happened.
Hawkins had no choice but to use his ability directly today.
His fruit power, if used properly, can also cause miracles.
“Bite it!”
Just when the ability was activated, Sage saw a big herring surrounding the bait and was about to open its mouth to bite the hook, and immediately screamed in surprise.
“Captain!”
Suddenly, a silly hoarse voice sounded behind him. I don't know whether it was the sound wave of the voice or the rapidity of the river. The fish was obviously excited. The fish that was about to bite the hook closed its mouth, flicked its tail, and followed. The river swam downstream.
Sage was left with a frozen expression.
Get twice the result with half the effort
The fish ate the hook with half the effort and ran away.
Sage blinked, then suddenly turned his head and glared behind him.
“Damn it, you idiot! My fish is hooked!”
