Reborn as a Sea King in Tokyo Fishing Village

Chapter 100: First Bluefin Tuna Catch
At around five in the morning, Ji Chang finally spotted the tuna.

There are not many fish, only a dozen or so, but they are not small fish. Each one weighs forty or fifty kilograms, which is considered a big fish.

At this time, the female divers were all sleeping, so Ji Chang didn't wake them up.

He went straight to the deck and because the tunas didn't swim fast, he cast the net with his hands.

He cast out several nets in succession and caught all the tunas.

As Ji Chang recovered the fishing net, the valuable tuna was pulled onto the deck.

The bluefin tuna has a very beautiful body, with a streamlined body like a spindle. The entire back is blue, the fins are also blue, and the sides and abdomen are silvery white.

The smallest of these bluefin tuna weighs forty or fifty kilograms, reflecting the light.

This was the first time he caught this precious fish, and Ji Chang was still somewhat excited.

In fact, fish weighing forty or fifty kilograms are still considered juveniles among the bluefin tuna group, and adult ones weigh two to three hundred kilograms.

"Master, what are you doing?"

Kitamura Chiyo rubbed her eyes and looked at Ji Chang on the deck.

Soon, she saw the tuna in the fishing net.

"Oh my god, it's tuna, bluefin tuna!"

"Everyone, get up quickly. The master has caught tuna. Everyone, wake up quickly." Kitamura Chiyo hurriedly woke everyone up. After all, working was their job. How could they let Ji Chang be busy here alone?

The tuna, about one meter long, looks very beautiful, constantly flapping its tail fin in the fishing net.

There are four tunas in this net, and each weighs no less than 50 kilograms.

It is hard to imagine that Ji Chang fishes by throwing nets by hand, which is almost impossible for others.

Today, tuna is mainly caught using purse seine and fishing methods because tuna is different from other fish.

The female divers were awakened by Kitamura Chiyo and rushed out of the boat house onto the deck.

Seeing that Ji Chang was still collecting the net, they all gathered around to help.

"There's a net over there, bring it up."

"Also, drain the blood of the tuna on the deck and freeze them." Ji Chang made some arrangements and then pulled the net back.

With Ji Chang's arrangements, everyone took action.

Soon, Ji Chang pulled up the second net of fish.

There were six bluefin tunas in this net, weighing an average of 50 to 60 kilograms, and Ji Chang had a very hard time pulling them.

Fortunately, the fishing nets were strong enough and the tuna did not break through them.

The female divers surrounding Ji Chang worked with him to pull the entire net of fish onto the deck.

"I'm rich, really rich. There are six fish in total. This whole net can be sold for tens of thousands, right?" Ishii Roko shouted excitedly.

"It would be better if I had a 500-kilogram bluefin tuna. I think I could sell it for 200,000 or 300,000 yuan. That would be a real fortune."

"Five hundred kilograms? You really dare to think so. It's not easy to come across that kind of tuna. One is more than three meters long."

"Following the master, there is nothing to be afraid of. I think we will definitely meet him!"

Everyone has an indescribable trust in Ji Chang and feels that Ji Chang can do anything.

Soon, the third net was pulled up by the female divers, and there were a total of 5 tunas in this net.

"There are 13 in total, weighing more than kilograms in total. The master is so awesome!" Ishii Ruko completed the statistics and looked at Ji Chang with eyes full of admiration.

"This tuna is so beautiful. No wonder it is so expensive and so many rich people like to eat it."

"Yes, this is the first time I have seen a live bluefin tuna. It is so beautiful."

The female divers chatted excitedly while untying the fishing nets. Then, they bled the tuna and put them into the freezer for freezing.

If you specialize in catching bluefin tuna in the future, you will need to quick-freeze it with liquid nitrogen to ensure its freshness.

Nowadays, fishing boats preparing to catch tuna will use liquid nitrogen to process tuna.

First quick freeze, then normal freeze.

The bluefin tuna was processed before daybreak.

However, the female divers had no intention of sleeping.

They took the fishing nets and threw them into the sea.

If you can catch bluefin tuna, it will be a profit. If not, you can catch something else and use it to cook breakfast.

It's almost dawn, so it's time to start preparing breakfast.

Ji Chang returned to the cab, ready to continue looking for the tuna.

Tuna swims very fast, with 50 to 60 yards being common. If it swims at full speed, it may reach 80 to 90 yards. It is a very difficult fish to catch.

However, they cannot maintain this high speed all the time, especially when there is no prey, their speed will be slower.

The reason why Ji Chang was able to cast the net and catch fish successfully just now was because they were not hunting.

It is not easy for others to discover bluefin tuna, but it is not a difficult task for Ji Chang who has the ability to perceive.

As long as you enter his perception range, you will be discovered.

However, the range is only 650 meters now, which is still too short. Ji Chang feels that he needs to madly improve his perception range next.

In order to make money, you have to do this.

Even if it costs a lot to find someone, I have to do it.

Not to mention more, the perception range should be at least 2000, right?

Ji Chang naturally hopes that the perception range can be as large as possible, and he wishes it could be 20,000 meters.

However, he felt that this perception ability could not be improved infinitely, and there would definitely be a limit.

Through his own perception ability, Ji Chang discovered that there were a lot of seafood in the sea.

Big lobsters, big sea cucumbers, and big abalone are all very large and very valuable.

So he quickly notified the female divers to cast their trawl nets.

"Girls, throw the mop net into the sea. We are going to consecrate it today."

The first time Ji Chang used a bottom net, he wanted to catch something valuable.

He found that the open ocean was indeed much more enjoyable than the nearshore waters, as there were so many large creatures on the seabed.

There are also some large groupers, which are also very valuable.

When the female divers heard Ji Chang's instructions, they immediately took action and skillfully threw the mop net into the sea.

The morning light on the sea gradually brightened, and the waves gently hit the hull, as if cheering for the new day of fishing that was about to begin.

"Everyone, please spread the net evenly and try to cover a wider area." Ji Chang continued to instruct.

The mop net slowly sinks to the bottom of the sea. Its design allows it to move close to the seabed and catch big fish hidden in the cracks of the rocks.

Time passed minute by minute, the light on the sea became brighter and brighter, and a new day officially began.

Ji Chang stood at the bow, his perception abilities fully activated, monitoring every move of the trawl while also keeping an eye on the dynamics of the surrounding waters.
