I Created Cthulhu In Naruto

Chapter 38 Captain Matthew

The country of the sea, Jiro Island.

The fiery red sun gradually sank below the sea level, and the fishing boats that went fishing during the day began to dock at the port of Jiro Island.

It is said to be a port, but in fact there are only a dozen small fishing boats and seven or eight medium-sized fishing boats docked. These are all the fishing boats of the local villagers.

"I'm back!"

Jumping out of the fishing boat, a man with a strong figure and bronze skin, wearing a bamboo hat and coir raincoat, waved towards the shore.

At this time, a mother and daughter were standing on the shore. The woman was wearing gray coarse cloth clothes. The girl beside her had short purple hair and looked only over three years old.

The man tied the boat skillfully, and then walked to the mother and daughter.

"dad!"

The little girl broke free from her mother's hand and jumped into the arms of the man. The man immediately picked up the girl and lifted her up happily.

"Haha, Yuhuo, did you listen to your mother at home today?"

"Yeah." The little girl named Yuhuo nodded with a bright smile.

The woman next to him came over and looked at the man affectionately and said, "Husband, you have worked hard."

"Well, let's go home first." The man asked the girl to ride on his shoulders, and the family of three walked towards the village.

...

This family of three lives in a fishing village on Jiro Island, the country of the sea. The man's name is Yushan, the woman's name is Zhimei, and their child is Yuhuo.

Fishing village, as the name suggests, means that all the income of the whole village comes from fishing, so Yushan named his daughter Yuhuo.

One is to hope that every time I go to sea, I can catch fish smoothly, and the other is to hope that my daughter can light the way home like a lighthouse in the sea.

When the three of them returned home, the food was already on the table and they could eat directly.

There are two or three vegetable leaves floating on the muddy white fish soup in the middle of the dining table, and each person eats a small salted fish and a bowl of rice.

Although life is hard, the family of three talked and laughed at the dinner table, looking very happy.

After dinner, Yushan called Yuhuo to his side.

"My mother and I will go out for a while, and I will be back in a while. Can you stay at home first?"

"Yeah." Yuhuo was very obedient, nodding obediently.

Seeing that their daughter agreed, Yushan and Zhimei left the house.

...

When they came to the port, Yushan and Zhimei got into their small fishing boat, opened the hatch cover in the middle, and saw the fish inside with the light of the torch.

There are only three fish smaller than the palm of your hand in the huge fish cabin, and they are not high-level fish. This is Yushan's harvest for a whole day.

"There are fewer and fewer fish in the coastal waters, and the fishing boats that went with us today have almost the same harvest."

Yushan sat on the edge of the boat, staring at the three fish in the fish hold with frowning eyes.

Seeing the dwindling harvest every day, Zhimei didn't know what to say. She knew that the family would collapse sooner or later.

Most of Jiro Island is salt land, which is not suitable for farming. Therefore, the income of each family in the fishing village depends on the men in the family to go fishing.

In this case, even if the woman in the family knows that her husband has hardly any harvest in the past month, there is nothing she can do to help the family.

"There may be a small rainstorm tomorrow, and I can't go fishing in the sea again, damn it!"

Yushan's fist hit the side of the boat, making a bang sound.

Originally, it was possible to go fishing in the sea during a small rainstorm, but Yushan's fishing boat was too small, even a small rainstorm might overturn Yushan's fishing boat.

Zhimei also knew that her husband was very troubled now, so she sat next to Yushan and comforted her: "If you can move to Mother Island, maybe there is still a way to survive."

Regarding Zhimei's proposal, Yu Shan immediately shook his head and denied it: "Impossible, the land of the sea country is not much in the first place, and now the mother island has a large population, it is impossible for the lord to let the residents of other islands move to the mother island to live .

"

There are four islands in the country of the sea. Mother Island is the one with the richest resources, the largest area and the largest population, followed by Dalang Island, and the weakest is Jiro Island.

As for the last ghost world island, it is basically a reef beach, and a village cannot be built on the ground.

"Many people have wanted to get out of Jiro Island for so many years, but only Matthew succeeded."

When mentioning Matthew, Yushan's eyes showed a trace of admiration, because Matthew is the pride of the whole fishing village.

Although he came from a humble background, Matthew worked hard after joining a shipping company named Cardo. Now he has his own large merchant ship and has frequent trade with the island countries around the country of water.

I heard from other villages along the coast that the current Matthew is no longer the fisherman Matthew, but Captain Matthew.

Thinking of this, Yushan felt a little regretful.

If he had followed Matthew to work for the Kaduo Shipping Company, his family would not have to worry about making a living because they could not catch fish.

"Husband, don't think too much about it. Since you can't go fishing tomorrow, then go to the Dragon King Temple with me to pray for blessings. The rest of the village will also go tomorrow."

"Um."

...

the next day.

Sure enough, it was hard to see a ray of sun on the sea, and the slightly strong sea breeze was blowing the fishing boats docked by the port.

The pattering rain hit the dozens of fishing boats docked at the port, and no fisherman tried to go fishing today.

The villagers of the fishing village did not take shelter from the wind and rain in their homes at this time, but concentrated in the Dragon King Temple of the fishing village.

The Dragon King Temple is a temple to worship the Dragon King, and the fishing villages along the coast generally worship the Dragon King.

In the hearts of the fishermen, the Dragon King is the God of the Sea, and all fish, shrimps, turtles, fish and crabs on the sea are under the control of the Dragon King. If you worship the Dragon King before going out to sea, you can get a good harvest and return to the voyage smoothly.

Although the Dragon King Temple in the fishing village is not magnificent, it is the largest building in the whole fishing village and can accommodate all the villagers.

More than a hundred villagers in the fishing village knelt and kowtowed to the clay statue of the Dragon King over and over again under the auspices of the village chief.

It's a pity that the tribute plate in front of the Dragon King statue is empty, and the village is now so poor that it can't even hand over the tribute for worship.

"Lord Dragon King, I beg you to grant us a good harvest of fish cabins!"

After finishing speaking, the village head led all the villagers to kowtow to the Dragon King Statue once.

"Lord Dragon King, I pray that you will grant us a calm sea!"

All the villagers kowtow again.

Click!

There was a thunder outside the temple, and the flashes of thunder frightened all the villagers.

The villagers looked back at the dark sky outside the temple, as if they were even more restless than before.

At this time, the broken wooden door of the Dragon King Temple was kicked open with a loud noise, and a burly man stood at the entrance of the temple.

Click!

There was another loud thunder, and the thunder light frantically poured into the Dragon King Temple from the door, and shone on the slightly frightened faces of the villagers.

The air froze for a second, and the person at the door walked directly into the Dragon King Temple without any instructions.

The villagers on both sides of the door were about to step forward to catch the rude man, but when they got up and saw the man's face, they stopped immediately.

"Matthew..."

"Matthew!"

"It's Matthew who's back!"
