Chapter 1028: Chapter 556_3
In the dead of night, motorboats raced across the sea, bearing dark-skinned Japanese fishermen.
Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam!
Upon reaching the dolphin-packed inlet, the Japanese fishermen plunged a long pole into the sea, continuously beating it to create waves of sound, frightening the dolphins, which rely mainly on keen hearing for survival.
At this point, Japanese fishermen would board small boats, relentlessly driving the dolphins into a lagoon blocked by fishing nets.
Startled, the dolphins swam frantically within the bay’s cove, their blood dyeing the sea water red.
Dolphins are highly intelligent animals, similar to humans in having complex social connections, often forming small groups based on family units, and these group relationships may last a lifetime.
In the face of capture, mother dolphins warned their calves of danger and tried to protect them, often emitting extremely painful cries, leaping from the sea, and using their voices to warn their kin and offspring to stay away.
The scene, with its desperate cries and shocking blood, appeared both tragic and bloody.
Yet the Japanese fishermen were already accustomed to it, joking and laughing as they slaughtered dolphins with long hook knives, spearing them with sharpened long spears, then hauling them onto small boats, slitting their throats, cutting open their spinal cords, and leaving them to bleed to death.
Due to severe blood loss and unbearable pain, the injured dolphins often lost their vitality; at that time, fishermen would haul them onto the fishing boats, slit their throats, or cut open their spinal cords. Many dolphins would be left on the boat to die naturally.
In the bay, the sea was stained with huge patches of red, with countless injured, wailing dolphins bobbing up and down within.
“Dad, today’s catch is pretty good. Tomorrow morning these dolphins can sell for a good price. I’ve long wanted to buy a good car, and hope to kill more dolphins this year to scrape together the down payment.”
On a fishing boat, Matsushita Youjun laughed as he speared a medium-sized dolphin with a long hook knife, trapping it securely.
Beside the boat, the mother of a young dolphin fluttered her tail fin, ramming the vessel back and forth, trying to rescue her child but powerless, emitting mournful cries.
Young Matsushita Youjun, only twenty this year, had already been fishing at sea for five years, following in his fisherman’s father’s footsteps, and was well-versed in dolphin slaughter.
For instance, he deliberately wounded a young dolphin, making it struggle in the water to attract the mother dolphin, thus creating wealth for himself.
Matsushita Youjun’s father, Matsushita Shiyu, a rough-skinned middle-aged man, impaled the mother dolphin attempting to rescue her child with a stabbing spear, laughing while dragging it onto the boat, he said: “Haha, this year’s catch does look good, a bumper harvest of dolphins!”
“If it weren’t for those animal protection organizations protesting and affecting our fishing trips, I’d have saved enough to buy a car last year. Those fools, idle every day with nothing better to do. How does our dolphin killing affect them, blocking my way to make money? Don’t they know how hard it is these days to fish normally? With all the nuclear wastewater being discharged, everyone’s saying the radiation levels are over the limit, and nobody’s buying our seafood anymore.”
Matsushita Youjun complained, filled with resentment at the protests of those animal protection organizations.
“Alright, hurry up and work. Left side, more dolphins, go hook them onto the boat.”
Matsushita Shiyu waved his hand, directing his son to operate the boat.
The boat quickly set in motion, heading toward the dolphin swimming area.
“Strange, where did they go?”
When the boat reached this area, circling around, Matsushita Shiyu stood by the side, holding a long hook knife, swinging the searchlight over the sea. Earlier, he saw the water churn and fins, but coming over, he couldn’t find any trace of the dolphins.
Glug Glug!
Suddenly, the sea surged, and Matsushita Shiyu’s eyes lit up, swiftly and accurately plunging the long hook knife into the sea.
The sensation in his hand made him feel as if he’d struck something.
But before he could rejoice, a tremendous force suddenly pulled at him, almost dragging him into the sea, the long hook knife slipped from his grip, and if not for his son Matsushita Youjun next to him, he would have been pulled into the water.
“This is a big one, fast, get the gear.”
Matsushita Shiyu exclaimed excitedly, pulling out a stabbing spear from the boat, his eyes locked on the sea.
Matsushita Youjun operated the boat at the stern, aiming the searchlight at the sea.
Under the searchlight, they could see the long hook knife Matsushita Shiyu had plunged in earlier swiftly slicing through the sea, breaking the waves as if something huge was swiftly swimming beneath.
“Definitely something valuable.”
Matsushita Youjun also lit up, accelerating the boat towards it, the propeller churning clusters of white waves on the sea.
“Die!”
Matsushita Shiyu shouted fiercely, plunging the stabbing spear into the sea.

The waters suddenly surged violently, and just when Matsushita Shiyu thought he succeeded, he saw his small boat suddenly shake violently, seemed to be struck by something, making him lose his balance.
“What’s going on, Youjun, steer the boat properly.”
Matsushita Shiyu angrily turned to scold his son.
“Wait, Dad, something’s in the sea.”
Matsushita Youjun’s pupils shrank; he had just seen a massive shadow passing under the sea, and if that wasn’t enough, he vaguely saw a few spots of scarlet red light, as if something in the water was staring at him.
