JOJO hiding in the hunter world
#232 - :A peaceful journey
The azure sky and ocean merged into a single color, with only a thin line separating them in the distance.
The weather was beautiful, and a cruise ship sailed across the vast sea.
Jon realized that he never had good experiences with air travel. Airships resulted in assassinations and explosions, and helicopters had been shot down three times…
Land-based transportation was fine, but he seemed to be cursed when it came to airplanes and airships, making air travel more prone to accidents.
This might be retribution for using the alias 'Joseph' back then, inheriting part of the vehicle-killer curse.
Anyone would be afraid of falling from a great height without protection. Jon had Nen and a Stand, so he wouldn't die from a fall, but it would still hurt.
What if he encountered sky pirates again? It was best to avoid it if possible.
Besides, Jon felt quite confident in the sea now.
Transportation in this world wasn't particularly developed. The infrastructure was lacking, making taxis, boats, and airplanes all expensive.
Taking a cross-national sightseeing cruise like this wasn't much cheaper than flying, making it a significant expense for ordinary people.
However, Jon was traveling for free using his Hunter License. The cruise line recognized Hunter Licenses.
Jon currently had two licenses: his ordinary Hunter License and Jotaro's One-Star Crime Hunter License.
Jon swiped Jotaro's license, easily getting on board without a ticket.
Jon sat in the comfortable lounge, finding a window seat to read.
Although the gaming industry in this world had begun to flourish, it was only at the level of the year 2003 in his previous life.
Only a few games were decent, and Jon had already beaten them all. There were too few games.
Greed Island, a Nen-user game, had long disappeared, and wasn't even available at auctions.
The entertainment in this world was far behind his previous life, making it incredibly boring. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to focus on reading.
He was reading materials and legends related to youkai, as well as information about the culture and customs of Sakura Country.
Sakura Country was an island nation with ethnic customs largely similar to those of Japan in his previous life.
The main religions were Shinto shrines and Buddhist temples, with Christianity and other Western religions being introduced in modern times. (Christianity and Catholicism also exist in this world.)
Of course, there were also many cults in the country. Sakura Country didn't crack down on cults very much, and there were about seven or eight cults with many followers in society.
However, due to mutual checks and balances, as well as the strong business capabilities of local shrines and temples, things didn't escalate too much.
These cults were mostly similar to pyramid schemes, brainwashing people and scamming them out of money, but they were very restrained and didn't cause social unrest.
Some people were swindled out of their fortunes, but there were no reports of them inciting suicide.
The leaders of these sects were mostly seeking wealth and women, and didn't dare to cross the police's bottom line too much.
However, this Sakura Country was very different from Japan. First of all, this world also had a world war, but Sakura Country was just a small country, without the same combat power as in his previous life.
There was also the factor of geographical location, which led to Sakura Country's ambitions being nipped in the bud.
Sakura Country did have ambitions in history, just like Japan in his previous life, but the geographical location was different. The neighboring country had benefited from the world's first industrial revolution.
Without the victory in the Sino-Japanese War, Sakura Country didn't have the same good fortune as in his previous life.
It could also be said to be a blessing in disguise. Although Sakura Country was still a fence-sitter with little influence in international conferences, without the trade dividends of relying on China in his previous life, its economy and manufacturing were comprehensively behind his previous life.
But at least they had the military autonomy they had dreamed of in their previous life.
Sakura Country's national power was only about the level of South Korea in his previous life.
Fortunately, the place he was going to was Kyoto in Sakura Country, an economically developed city that ranked among the top three in all cities in Sakura Country in terms of trade and economy.
Interestingly, in recent years, Kyoto's economic growth had even surpassed the capital of Sakura Country.
Moreover, the economic growth started eight years ago when rumors of youkai began, and after a year of economic turmoil, it began to grow rapidly.
A rare phenomenon in the world has emerged, that is, after the regional economy has soared, many local people are trying to get out, and outsiders, even foreigners, are trying to get in.
This city really relies on tourism to prosper. There are youkai in other parts of Japan, but 80% of youkai sightings are concentrated in Kyoto.
Sakura Country is an island nation, and Jon could better appreciate the coastal scenery along the way by taking a boat.
Perhaps because he had 'Power' and 'Dark Blue Moon', Jon was a little more at ease with the sea route.
Now Jon was full of confidence in naval warfare. Even the professional marine life hunter Morel could only secretly suffer under Dark Blue Moon's shameless abilities.
Morel's most proud breath-holding ability, was it stronger than Dark Blue Moon's underwater breathing? It forcibly turned Jon, a swimming novice who could only dog-paddle, into a water battle expert.
Underwater breathing plus water control ability, beating Morel.
If Jon hadn't read too few books and knew so little about marine life.
If he was willing to spend the effort to learn relevant knowledge, with his diving ability beyond human limits, he might be able to make a great contribution within five years and be selected as a marine hunter.
What sea island turtles, submarine whales, and so on. It felt like man-made species modified by humans, but they were indeed native species in nature.
Nothing major happened along the way. When Jon got tired of fishing, he would read the books the chairman gave him.
Inside were remnants of the chairman's diary, recording the chairman's boring life of challenging martial artists across Sakura Country.
The writing was similar to that of Mr. Hu Shi, like keeping a running account.
Most opponents were knocked out with one punch. This diary was more like a memo, how much memory could there be from knocking someone out with one punch?
Can you still remember the size of every piece of bread I ate?
In case one day, the descendants of these dojos want to reclaim their honor and challenge Netero. Netero still has the opportunity to flip through the book to find what he once did wrong.
There were more than one hundred and nearly two hundred schools of all sizes, and the names were also strange, including many great schools passed down from generation to generation.
They were all praying and then knocked out with one punch. If it weren't for the record in the notebook, Netero might not even remember their names.
Netero once challenged a swordsmanship dojo empty-handed, and it was the same as entering an uninhabited place.
At that time, no one in all of Sakura Country could last five minutes under Netero's hands.
Jed was a little younger than Netero, and he was also a newcomer at that time, and he was also defeated by Netero. Of course, later he improved the Hundred Ghost Curses, and his strength was indeed very close to Netero.
The diary inside was very boring, probably just a running account of who he defeated today and who he defeated tomorrow.
Jon couldn't empathize with the martial arts insights written in it at all.
It was like reading Zhuangzi and feeling ethereal and free, but almost no one could reach this state of mind.
The martial arts experience inside was too abstract, it was almost like discussing philosophy, not suitable for Jon, a martial arts 'half-baked'.
It took about ten hours to sail from the mainland to Kyoto in Sakura Country.
This was already the third day since Jon left the Hunter Association.
