Chapter 442
The chief mate didn't know what method Lu Mingfei used to achieve this effect. Changing the concentration of dragon blood of a mixed race sounds like a fantasy. With the evaluation system of the Secret Party, this is equivalent to putting an A Grade B hybrids were transformed into B grade or even C grade.

As we all know, the concentration of dragon blood of mixed blood is inherently doomed, and all methods of changing bloodlines are taboos that are absolutely impossible to spread. The end point is to degenerate into a deadpool.

Speaking of which, there is another rumor about this road of pushing the bloodline to 100%. I don’t know where it came from, but most of the mixed races firmly believe it.

In other words, if there is a hybrid who can complete this path, cross the critical blood line, and push their bloodline to 100%, this hybrid can complete the transformation from mortal to god.

Therefore, in the word of mouth of the mixed race, this road to increase the concentration of dragon blood is also called: the road to conferring gods.

But it is a pity that no one has been able to complete this road to becoming a god so far.

There is an insurmountable gap between mortals and gods. Although compared with ordinary people without dragon blood, hybrids who can express their speech and master various mighty powers seem to be called extraordinary, but only they themselves You know, to the real gods, those who are at the top of the blood pyramid, I am nothing at all.

"You mean, my lineage has permanently declined..."

The first officer emphasized "permanence".

Lu Mingfei naturally understood what he meant.

Nodding apologetically, he said.

"Unfortunately, it is."

The first officer lowered his eyelids and fell silent. He seemed to be thinking about something, but nothing could be seen from this calm and rigid face.

Lu Mingfei understood the first officer very well.

For warriors, nothing can be a greater blow than losing their cultivation and becoming an ordinary person.

Even he himself was depressed for several days when he was cut off from Yan Luo and started to practice Dragon Snake Secret Record again.

What's more, the chief mate's situation was different from his own.

At the beginning, although Lu Mingfei lost his cultivation, he was still able to start over, and he was confident that it was only a matter of time before he achieved Waigang again with his natural talent.

But the first mate is different. The dragon blood of the mixed blood is completely different from Kyushu martial arts. At least based on Lu Mingfei's current observation and research, it is still impossible to find a way to increase the blood concentration of the mixed blood.

Lu Mingfei sighed in his heart, and prepared secretly. If the first officer asked him if there was any way to improve his bloodline and restore his previous strength, no matter how cruel he was, Lu Mingfei would firmly say no.

But surprisingly, the first mate said nothing.

"I see."

He nodded.

"In any case, I still have to thank you."

"If it weren't for you, I would have become a monster who only knows how to kill."

The first mate smiled.

"And you also rescued everyone on the Sonny."

"To be honest, I don't know how to repay this kindness."

Lu Mingfei waved his hand.

"You also saved me, even if it's evened."

"That won't do."

The first officer said seriously.

"Even if you are saved, you only need to save one person. What's more, the person who fished you out of the sea that day was Xiaojiao, and she was the one who actually saved you. You can completely stand by and watch us, but You still made a move."

"and……"

The first mate shook his head.

"In the final analysis, even if the Sonny didn't pass by that day, and Little Pepper didn't find out, nothing really happened to you, right?"

"I don't believe that with your ability, you will really die because of something like drowning."

When he said this, the first mate subconsciously observed the changes in Lu Mingfei's expression. Unfortunately, apart from a faint smile, there was no other expression on his face.

Sure enough, if possible, the chief mate still wanted to find out why Lu Mingfei was so powerful.

It doesn't mean that he covets Lu Mingfei's secrets, carefully speaking, this kind of mood should be curiosity.

Lu Mingfei, who obviously didn't have dragon blood in Iwata's induction, can show such a strong fighting power. He really wants to know what's going on.

It was because Lu Mingfei had something special that blocked Iwata's perception.

Or did Lu Mingfei not use the power of dragon blood?
The first officer was deeply curious about this.

It was not convenient for him to ask directly, so he made indirect remarks, but this indirect method didn't seem to be effective.

"Drowning?"

Lu Mingfei thought about his state at that time, and shook his head.

Whether he would die by drowning was really uncertain to him at the time.

It was very late at night, the first officer stayed for a while, got up and said goodbye.

"The return flight will be faster. After returning, we will arrange for Mr. Lu to go to Tokyo. Please rest assured."

"Don't refuse, this is the only thing we can do, please let us do our best."

Lu Mingfei opened his mouth, then nodded helplessly.

"Then, I will trouble you."

The first officer showed a relieved expression.

Everyone on the Sonny owed Lu Mingfei a life, especially him. The other party helped solve the problem of degeneration. This kindness weighed heavily on his heart. Now there are some things that can help Lu Mingfei, which makes everyone Vice felt a little relieved.

Of course, there is also money. Although the chief mate did not say anything about it, everyone from Iwata to Kenta decided to donate part of their savings to Lu Mingfei.

They floated on the sea all the year round and didn't go ashore for a long time all the year round, so they had very little to spend on. Over such a long period of time, only the first mate and uncle Iwata had a considerable savings.

Even if it is just a part of it, it is enough for an ordinary person to live a life without worrying about food and clothing.

But for them, money is the least worth mentioning. After all, even Kenta can see that with Lu Mingfei's ability, the world is as big as it can go, and it may be considered a problem for ordinary people For Lu Mingfei, the money may only be a little troublesome.

"that."

They had already reached the door, opened the door, and the first officer, who was about to go out, seemed to have finally made up his mind, turned around, and looked at Lu Mingfei.

"May I take the liberty to ask a question?"

"But it doesn't matter."

The first officer was taken aback.

From the very beginning, he always felt that Lu Mingfei was very weird. One of the reasons was Lu Mingfei's speaking habits. Although he had tried to cover it up, how could the chief mate who was full of books in the cabin not be able to hear it? Not many inadvertent language habits, very much like an ancient man.

Those Japanese words that only appear in ancient books are spoken out by Lu Mingfei, and most of the time, the first officer can't understand them at all. Lu Mingfei's words are too profound, as if he is a doctor who studies ancient books professor.

But the strange thing is here, Lu Mingfei's temperament is completely different from scholars like doctors.

No, this should be said to be the opposite.

It is really puzzling.

The first officer suppressed many thoughts in his mind.

He asked the question that had been in his heart for a long time.

It was also a question that guy Iwata wanted to ask but was afraid to ask.

He stared at Lu Mingfei's eyes seriously, and paused every word.

"Have you seen the mysterious island?"

There was a sudden look in Lu Mingfei's eyes.

He smiled.

"Oh, Mysterious Island."

"I know."

"Is it the one you and Mr. Captain have been chasing for most of your life?"

The first officer nodded, still staring at Lu Mingfei.

"that."

"The mysterious island that you and Mr. Captain are looking for."

Lu Mingfei said.

"Sorry, I haven't seen it."

Hearing Lu Mingfei's answer, even the chief mate showed disappointment on his face.

"That's right, I didn't see it."

As he said that, the first officer put away the expression on his face and returned to his usual face, which was serious and rigid.

"Although you may not care, I must apologize for my previous faux pas."

He bowed to Lu Mingfei again.

"Then, good night."

"I wish you a sweet dream."

Saying that, the first officer closed the door of the cabin.

In the cabin where there was only one person left, Lu Mingfei looked at the sparkling sea under the silver moon outside the porthole, thinking of the dark shadow in the deep sea that he saw that night.

It was a huge black shadow like an island.

Mysterious island?

Maybe even the first officer didn't notice it.

After hearing Lu Mingfei say that he had never seen the mysterious island, the first thing that flashed across the first mate's face was not disappointment.

Instead, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Lu Mingfei is very clear that for some people, a goal is needed to survive.

Their life is a marathon, marching towards the preset end point, running, running, running, or dying on the road, or reaching the end point.

But whether they die on the road or reach the finish line, this is their own business. In any case, what is certain is that they absolutely don't want to be carried over the line at a unit price when they finally reach the finish line.

For them, this is simply the greatest humiliation.

Compared to such humiliation, they would rather die on the way to the finish line, while running.

Obviously, the first mate and Uncle Iwata are such people.

The end of their life marathon is to finally find the mysterious island, to see if this unsolved mystery island is a living creature, as Uncle Iwata guessed.

It doesn't matter if you die halfway through the marathon.

But it was another matter for Lu Mingfei to tell them the answer directly.

This is equivalent to Lu Mingfei carrying them to the line with the unit price.

Even if you know the truth about the mysterious island, what's the point?
Therefore, Lu Mingfei lied.

He did see dark shadows in the depths of the sea.

But is that guy the mysterious island that the first mate and Uncle Iwata have been chasing for most of their lives?

In the end, it wasn't all up to Lu Mingfei to decide.

He said no, it was not.

Anyone have an opinion?

Who else can have an opinion?

Lu Mingfei recalled the relief subconsciously expressed by the first officer at that time.

Not just kids.

Even adults' dreams are worth protecting.

Speaking of which, Uncle Iwata spent his whole life verifying and pursuing his childhood dream.

Come to think of it, it's quite romantic, isn't it?

Lu Mingfei suddenly remembered a series of comic books he saw in Uncle Iwata's captain's cabin.It seems to be called "One Piece"...

In order to understand this dragon world that is completely unfamiliar to him these days, he forced himself to search through all the books on the Sonny, including this set of One Piece comics.

Lu Mingfei thought of the protagonist in the comics, the straw hatd Luffy.

Perhaps that's what they said.

Men's romance.

…………

"Hey, mate!"

Uncle Iwata said hello.

"What a good thing happened, so happy!"

After saying this, the first officer subconsciously looked at his own reflection on the glass next to him, was he very happy?But obviously he didn't laugh.

"Hahaha!"

Uncle Iwata laughed heartily.

"You, don't look at it."

"We've known each other for so many years, even if you're not smiling, happy or not, I can still tell."

Having said that, Uncle Iwata, who was carrying a lantern, leaned against the railing, blowing the sea breeze leisurely.

He turned to look at the first officer.

"Let me guess what's going on..."

"Ah."

Uncle Iwata glanced in the direction the first mate came from.

"I see!"

He put on that smug face again.

"You must go to Mr. Lu to admit your mistake."

Uncle Iwata's "Sir" here is different from the "Mr. Chief Mate" that Lu Mingfei said. He is a respectful term, and the concept is equivalent to "Mr. Lu".

The first mate ignored the narrowness on his friend's face, he walked to the railing, put his hands on it, and looked down at the dark sea.

No one spoke for a long time, and the quiet atmosphere reverberated here.

Uncle Iwata slowly put away the smile at the corner of his mouth.

He had a feeling that next the mate might say something important to them.

really……

"do you know?"

The chief mate's words echoed in the dark night.

"He says."

"I haven't seen the mysterious island before."

Uncle Iwata narrowed his eyes slowly.

"I haven't seen..."

"I haven't seen..."

He is your man.

Uncle Iwata was digesting the first mate's words in this way.

At the same time, his eyes gradually brightened.

There was a certain glow of excitement in it.

Compared with the lantern in his hand.

Than the stars twinkling overhead.

are brighter.

"what!"

Uncle Iwata let out a breath.

This breath was so long that it seemed to expel all the air in the chest.

"I'm so happy for nothing."

"What a pity."

"I didn't expect that even such a powerful little brother Lu couldn't find the mysterious island!"

Even though he said something regretful, but looking at Uncle Iwata's expression, there was no sign of regret at all.

"Is it so difficult to find the mysterious island?"

"Are you afraid!"

Uncle Iwata turned his head, his eyes seemed to be burning with fire, and he looked at him.

"Mate?"

The first officer raised the corner of his mouth.

"What the hell are you talking about, Iwata!"

"afraid?"

"Make it clear."

"Even if you are so scared that you want pants, I won't be afraid!"

"Hahaha!"

Uncle Iwata smiled heartily again.

It's just that compared to before, the gloomy and dreary things that were lingering in his smile are gone.

"it is good!"

He slapped the railing hard.

There was an overwhelmed metal whine from the shaking iron railing.

"I can't wait!"

"Think about it, mate."

"This is a mysterious island that even Brother Lu can't find."

"Even such a powerful little brother Lu can't stand it, and we will find it in the end!"

"hey-hey."

Uncle Iwata proudly touched his nose twice.

"Isn't that more fulfilling!"

"So, I really can't wait."

"First officer, let's go back quickly."

"Tell you, the next place, yes, the next place, a fountain of ideas came out of my head!"

"I have a hunch, this time it will definitely work!"

Uncle Iwata shouted excitedly.

"I will definitely be able to find the mysterious island this time, so watch out!"

The first mate snorted.

"It's impossible to say."

"Tell me, Iwata."

"The thing hasn't started yet, so don't be too happy!"

He still poured cold water on Iwata as before every time he was about to go to sea.

It's not that the first mate is really not optimistic, or that he is pessimistic, that's the reason. When someone in the team is passionate, someone else must stand up, keep calm, or cool down. There must be something to do. Otherwise, if a team starts to be impulsive, that's not a good thing.

"I know, I know!"

Hearing the first officer's familiar words, Uncle Iwata waved his hands impatiently and shouted "I know, I know".

He stretched his waist, and there was a burst of crackling sound from the joints all over his body, like firecrackers.

"Honestly, mate."

"I don't know why."

"In short, the me now feels like my whole body is full of endless energy."

"Ah."

The rare first mate didn't sing the opposite.

He actually agreed.

"Yes."

said the first mate.

"Speaking of you, we still have important things to do."

"How can I rest?"

Uncle Iwata clapped his hands.

"That's it."

He sighed.

"As expected of you, first officer."

"It's so easy to say what I want to say but don't know how to say!"

"awesome."

The first officer gave this guy a strange look.

Doesn't he feel troubled by what he said just now?
"Let's go!"

Uncle Iwata pulled up the first mate.

"I can't sleep anyway, so accompany me to study the charts."

"Next time we go to sea, we will definitely find the mysterious island."

"When the time comes, I'll surprise Brother Lu."

"Speaking of which, first mate, you feel that such a powerful little brother Lu, if you are taken aback, what kind of expression will you have?"

"It's going to be fun, let me tell you!"

Uncle Iwata described it excitedly, and the first mate listened with a straight face. What this guy said, he must find the mysterious island next time. The first mate just listened to it and didn't take it to heart. , are all the same full of confidence, saying that I will definitely find it this time, and I even moved out the sixth sense of any man.

Please, the first officer has only heard of a woman's sixth sense. I guess only Uncle Iwata believes in this man's sixth sense.

After doing this many times, the chief mate will get used to it, just let this guy Iwata go, anyway, he has been prepared to die at sea a long time ago, and accompany this guy Iwata to find the mysterious island or something. Apart from doing this in my life, there is nothing meaningful to do.

So, that's it.

Some people once said that they were envious of the friendship between the first officer and Iwata, saying that the two of them are like the protagonists in anime, and they feel super good.

The first mate scoffed at this.

what?
You mean his friendship with this guy Iwata?

Stop making such silly jokes!

How could he have any friendship with a fool like Iwata.

As for why I went to sea with such an idiot for so many years?
If you want to blame, you can only blame yourself for losing to Iwata that summer decades ago.

Speaking of which, that summer was really hot.

The cicadas on the tree are also screaming fiercely.

There is no way, I lose even if I lose. After all, he is a man, he means what he says, and he promised to be his first mate for the rest of his life, and he will be the first mate for the rest of his life. As time went on, people forgot what his original name was, only called him first mate.

He is a man, he means what he says, and he has to admit when he loses. From the very beginning, he has already made up his mind.

No matter where this guy Iwata is going, no matter what he is going to do, he, the first mate, just needs to keep up.

After all, Iwata is the captain no matter what.

As the chief mate, isn't it natural for him to obey the captain's words?
"Come on, first officer, how about this route?"

Uncle Iwata pointed to the chart and excitedly showed his thoughts.

"whatever."

The first officer said calmly.

"Eh!"

"You are too cold!"

"This is the route I finally decided on!"

"Be more serious with me!"

"Mate!"

Sure enough, an idiot is an idiot.

The first mate looked at Uncle Iwata who was furious, and raised the corners of his mouth imperceptibly.

An idiot is an idiot who doesn't understand human speech.

The so-called whatever you mean is...

It doesn't matter where you're going.

Follow your orders, my captain.

…………

"Let's sail!"

Uncle Iwata shouted, and the resonant voice spread throughout the Sonny even without the help of the loudspeaker.

"understood!"

Kenta responded.

He calmly poked Da Shan's arm next to him.

"I said so."

"Do you feel that today's uncle is very excited."

Dashan scratched his head honestly.

"Is there?"

Lu Mingfei basked in the sun comfortably.

The Sonny started, cut through the white waves, and headed forward.

The sea breeze blows Lu Mingfei's black hair.

He looked in the direction of the bow of the ship, as if his eyes could cross the ocean and reach the land on the other side.

I am coming.

Destination: Japan.

The return flight is faster than the arrival time.

Lu Mingfei lived in seclusion, because of his help to the Sonny, few people bothered him.

Although they were really curious about what Lu Mingfei was doing in his cabin.

Uncle Iwata returned to his original appearance again. No, it should be said that he was more excited than before. Although he didn't find the mysterious island this time, it can't be said that it was fruitless. At least they saw the skirt of the goddess, and also saw the suspected messenger of the sea god. Uncle Iwata has a premonition that he is not far away from the final truth and from unveiling the mystery of the mysterious island.

Although the crew of the Sonny tacitly refrained from disturbing Lu Mingfei, when they got together occasionally, they would still discuss about Lu Mingfei, especially during meals, when they ate the raw fish carefully prepared by the first mate During the filming, I became even more curious about what Lu Mingfei was doing.

"Seven days!"

Kenta wailed.

"I haven't eaten Boss Lu's food for seven days!"

His head was rolling around on the dining table in pain.

At the same time, it also let out a whine.

"Tell me, what happened to Boss Lu!"

Dashan pulled the sashimi in pain, with a look of lovelessness.

Little Pepper looked thoughtful.

"That guy..."

"Could it be an injury?"
