Chapter 366 Target determined
A few days later, on the side of the golden ship, Jerry's excited shout exploded like spring thunder, attracting many eyes nearby.
"Wuhu! Another big fish is caught!"
Seeing that he had a "big fish" on his hook that was still struggling and was no bigger than a palm, another middle-aged fisherman not far from him sneered and said jokingly: "Tsk, young man, if you don't know how to fish, don't join in the fun. It's really embarrassing."
This is an excellent place on the Golden Boat for people to view the scenery and fish.
Jerry was wearing a hat and a pair of big sunglasses at the moment, which covered most of his face, so he was not recognized by the crowd.
"Uncle, you really don't understand the value of my superb skills. In such a big ocean, it's not easy to catch such a 'big fish', do you?" Jerry raised his face arrogantly and carefully put the fish on the hook into the bucket beside him.
The middle-aged man rolled his eyes, grabbed the bucket beside him unhappily, and showed it off: "Yeah, it's not easy, I only have about ten."
"Hehe! Aren't yours the same as mine? You're the pot calling the kettle black!" At this point, Jerry suddenly came to his senses, changed the subject, and said, shaking his head, "No! How can you be on the same level as me!? I can tell at a glance that your fish is different from mine, mine..."
Just as Jerry's eyes were rolling and he was racking his brains to make up a story, Skarl's voice came like timely rain, making him feel relieved.
"Boss Jerry! There's news!"
As the shouting came from afar, it was Skarl who was still wearing the skeleton costume.
Jerry stood up, holding the fishing rod in one hand and other fishing gear in the other. He raised his chin to the uncle on the side and shook the fishing rod, saying, "Uncle, you have to remember that I will be the fishing king! You'd better give up. I won't give up that position to you."
After saying that, Jerry immediately turned around, leaving the confused uncle and the onlookers disheveled in the wind.
"By the way, do you think that person looks familiar?"
"Now that you mention it, I think so too. When he looked up just now, I felt that he was with the Kuroko Pirates that have been making the rounds these days... and the skeleton man who came to find him... right?"
After Jerry and Skarr left, the crowd immediately became excited, and some sharp-eyed onlookers recognized Jerry's identity.
"Uncle, you'd better run away. It seems you have offended an important person."
This discovery spread rapidly among the crowd like ripples, and some kind-hearted people rushed to remind the fishing uncle.
"I'm not afraid of him at all. If he has the guts, just let him come at me!" the uncle responded calmly.
Before he finished speaking, he picked up his tools, disappeared from the spot, blending into the crowd as if he had never appeared.
"How is it, Skarr, do you have the specific information?" Jerry asked softly after they were away from the hustle and bustle and turned a few streets.
"Oh haha, of course. Don't you see who I am? I'm the world's number one intelligence expert!" Scar put his hands on his hips, looking like a cow standing upside down.
Jerry blinked and tilted his head to stare at Skaar: "Okay, the world's number one intelligence expert, then why didn't you have any news in the beginning?"
Scarr coughed twice, scratched his head and said, "It's because we were looking in the wrong direction at the beginning, but in the past few days, I combined some clues provided by Tezoro and finally confirmed it."
"It was an island that had no name before, but has been called Zhenbao Island in recent years. It should be called Zhenbao Island, right? Anyway, it is in..."
After listening to Scar's brief description, Jerry nodded slightly: "Just find out clearly, let's go back to the Blackie and notify Deuce and the others to come back first."
……
While Jerry and his crew were on the golden ship, Ace and his crew, who had completed the task of clearing up the disturbance in the Whitebeard Pirates' territory, did not relax at all.
Because, after learning the news of Caesar and Mingo's downfall, Big Mom and Kaido were furious and wanted to send people, and even claimed that they would personally go to settle accounts with Jerry and his gang.
Big Mom has high hopes for Caesar's research on human gigantism. In her heart, she has always coveted the bodies and combat power of the giants. Kaido's pirate group is the largest consumer of artificial devil fruits, which is related to the overall strength of the pirate group. Naturally, the two hate Jerry and the others.
But Jerry and others happened to be in the territorial waters of the Whitebeard Pirates, which made Big Mom and Kaido join forces to put pressure on Whitebeard and attempt to forcibly cross the territory to pursue him.
This action naturally alarmed the World Government, the Navy Headquarters and even many pirates and other forces.
Just when people from many forces took out benches, cut watermelons and prepared to watch the show, the Red Hair Pirates unexpectedly issued a statement that if Big Mom and Kaido joined forces, they would fight the enemy together with the Whitebeard Pirates.
As soon as these words were spoken, the situation was instantly pushed to a climax. After weighing the pros and cons, Big Mom and Kaido temporarily gave up the idea of sending troops and only issued a stern warning to the Kuroko Pirate Group.
This grand but anticlimactic move made the officials and people from many other forces excited or nervous for a long time in vain.
Jerry was naturally fearless about this, but he could not stop Ace and others from wanting to help, so he was forced to owe a debt for a big banquet.
As for the Red Hair Pirates, because the two sides were like enemies and friends, Jerry didn't say much, but just kept it in mind.
……
On the Heizi, everyone gathered in a circle, and after listening to Scar's information, all their eyes turned to Jerry.
"Now that we have locked on to the target, there is no need to hesitate. Let's set off right away." Jerry waved his hand and issued the order to set sail.
Deuce looked at everyone and said in a deep voice, "In that case, we must keep this operation a secret. Also, if it is really as Jerry said, everyone must be careful."
"That's right, let's see the situation first. Even if the fisherman is here, we must also be careful ourselves." Kalina stroked Carrot's little head and nodded in agreement.
"There's one called the Devil's Descendant, right? I'm most afraid of these ghosts. Every time I think of these horrible ghosts and monsters, my heart starts pounding, even though I don't have a heart, yoho." Brooke patted his chest.
Cavendish's eyes sparkled, and the corners of his mouth raised as he said, "How about letting me test his strength this time?"
"Whatever you want. If you are beaten from a cabbage to a water spinach, I will help you pick up the leaves." At this point, Jerry touched the back of his head and said in surprise:
"Yuyan, have you made a mistake? He is not our target, so why bother about him? Who knows, he might just have diarrhea, and we don't even need to meet him to achieve our goal and leave?"
Hearing this, everyone looked at each other in surprise.
Jerry ignored their reactions, turned around and manipulated the ocean currents, steered the Blackie out of the harbor and headed straight for the destination.
