Reborn: I Stock Up and Bully the Trash to Dominate the Apocalypse

"Report to the captain, the stern of the ship is severely damaged and cannot continue sailing!"

A crew member came running over to report.

Zhipeng wiped his face and ordered in a hoarse voice: "Control the ship and return immediately!"

The fleet struggled to adjust its formation in the chaos, and several fishing boats quickly approached the damaged ship in an attempt to rescue it.

However, the wind and waves were too strong, making the rescue operation difficult.

Fortunately, they have been living on the sea for many years and are not panicked when encountering danger.

In the huge waves, they chained the fishing boats one by one, along with the damaged boats.

The fleet began to turn around and moved forward with difficulty towards the island.

However, the wind and waves did not weaken, but became even more violent.

Zhipeng stood on the deck, holding the railing tightly with both hands, staring fixedly ahead.

He knew that the return journey would be extremely dangerous.

After nearly four hours of suffering, the fleet finally sailed into relatively calm waters.

However, a huge whirlpool suddenly appeared on the sea ahead.

The whirlpool is hundreds of meters in diameter, and the sea water forms a bottomless funnel, as if it wants to swallow everything.

"Captain, there is an abnormal vortex ahead. It is recommended to detour immediately!" The lookout's voice came through the loudspeaker.

Zhipeng quickly picked up the telescope and carefully examined the vortex in front.

His expression became serious, and he quickly ordered: "All fleets, immediately detour westward and maintain a safe distance!"

The fleet began to turn slowly to avoid the whirlpool.

However, during the detour, the lookout once again discovered a shocking sight.

"Captain, we found a group of reefs in front of the left, with dense schools of fish and huge numbers!" There was a hint of excitement in the lookout's voice.

Zhipeng immediately turned the telescope and looked in the direction indicated by the lookout.

Sure enough, in the sea shrouded in mist, the reefs were looming, and countless silver fish were swimming among the reefs, like a silver ocean.

"Captain, do you want to get closer to catch fish?" a crew member nearby asked tentatively, with desire in his eyes.

Zhipeng frowned and ordered, "Survey the reefs immediately!"

A moment later, the sonar report came in: "Captain, the undercurrent at the bottom of the reef is as fast as 25 knots, and the surface of the reef is covered with sharp rocks. It is extremely dangerous to approach."

Zhipeng clenched his fists again, his eyes moving back and forth between the reefs and the fleet.

He knew that seven fishing boats in the fleet were seriously damaged at this moment, and any carelessness would cause irreparable losses.

"Attention all ships, give up fishing and continue returning!" Zhipeng's voice was low and firm, with unquestionable majesty.

Although the crew members were unwilling, they also understood that the captain's decision was for everyone's safety.

The fleet adjusted its course again and headed towards the island.

After returning to the island, the maintenance personnel quickly carried out emergency repairs on the damaged fishing boat, replacing the broken planks and patching the holes.

At the same time, two crew members who were injured in the collision were rushed to the medical area for treatment. Fortunately, their lives were not in danger.

Zhipeng stood on the dock, looking at the busy crew and maintenance workers, his heart filled with complicated emotions.

Knowing that the fishing team had suffered serious damage, Captain Chen and Deputy Captain Xiao rushed over.

After Zhipeng explained the situation, he went on to tell about the discovery of a school of fish hiding under the reefs.

Vice Captain Xiao's eyes lit up and he asked, "How many fish do you think there are?"

Zhipeng said, "A rough estimate is that there are several thousand fish. It's a very large school of fish."

This time they spent a whole day at sea but only caught a few fish.

Part of the sea surface has already frozen over.

Thousands of fish, assuming each fish weighs at least 3 kilograms, the harvest is over 10,000 kilograms.

This gain is enough to make the warship take some risks.

"Come in." Deputy Captain Xiao's voice came from inside the house.

Captain Chen looked at Zhipeng sharply: "Do you remember the direction?"
