"Sure, no problem at all!" Chen Fan was not the least bit stressed. He had a 95 percent chance of winning this bet, and a 5 percent chance of losing. But...what if he really lost? He'll just play punk!
"Can I borrow your yellow croaker?" There was no more kindness in Chen Fan's squinted eyes . They were shining with treachery and darkness!
"Sure, I wanna see how you're gonna catch a shark." The pretty lady handed over the jumping yellow fish, observing Chen Fan closely.
After taking the yellow croaker, Chen Fan pretended to look professional. He looked at the surrounding and then drew a few lines of blood on the yellow croaker's belly with the hook. The shark is extremely sensitive to the smell of blood. Fishing enthusiasts like using bloody meats to fish sharks.
After hanging a big hook, Chen Fan used his strength to throw out the fishing rod before sitting on the beach chair with an enigmatic expression.
"Are you gonna move the fish?" The pretty lady asked. The bait usually has to be kept moving at a certain speed for shark fishing, as sharks do not like biting hooks.
"Nah, just let the fish struggle in the water." With this, Chen Fan gave a sinister smile before closing his eyes and shifted his thoughts onto the electric eel.
Due to its sheer size, Chen Fan had always kept the electric eel a few tens of meters deep beneath the sea. The eel was close to fifty meters long anyway so no marine creature would dare to provoke it.
The eel was not too far from the Princess Cruise, Chen Fan only used ten minutes to get the eel to the surrounding area of the ship. After waiting for a while, the pretty lady could not help but ask, "Why haven't you got it on the hook? I guess the fish is probably dead!"
"What's most important in fishing?" Chen Fan started to educate her instead. "Patience...patience…" With this, he continued to close his eyes and pretended to be resting.
The thresher shark was quite commonly seen in the East China Sea and often caught by fishermen. As Chen Fan controlled the electric eel to move a few rounds at the place where groups of fishes often gathered, he had already seen five or six thresher sharks.
After targeting one that was over one meter long, Chen Fan controlled the eel to move forward and then suddenly released over 800 volts of high frequency discharge.
Pah! Chen Fan felt a little itchy at the eel's front claw. He turned and saw that the GPS navigator had been burnt by the strong discharge.
"Argh, there goes 2,000 RMB…" Chen Fan said bitterly in his mind. After biting off the GPS, he controlled to eel to grab hold of the electrocuted thresher shark and swam toward the hook. The eel hooked its front claw vigorously and moved the mouth of the thresher shark close to the dying yellow croaker. Stimulated by the smell of blood, the thresher shark shivered and bit the yellow croaker. After making sure that the shark's mouth was hooked securely, Chen Fan controlled the electric eel back into the sea and then immediately shifted his thoughts back to himself.

"It's moving, your rod's moving." The pretty lady sounded like a little sparrow as she leaned on the deck railings.
"Haha, there's a shark on the hook!" Chen Fan jumped up from the chair and turned the reel madly with his right hand. After turning back one-third of the reel, an over one-meter long thresher shark jumped up from the water surface. Its streamlined body shone brightly under the sun, looking marvelous.
"Wow, a huge shark!" The pretty lady was stunned, unable to close her mouth. The bent fish rod was like an English longbow, with a gray fishing line tied onto it firmly. The over one hundred kilos shark was struggling with great strength in the water, that even the physically strong Chen Fan was staggering.
Taking a big step forward and with his left foot on the railing, Chen Fan pushed the reel lock with his thumb and then used the strength in his arms to compete with the shark! "Ah!" Chen Fan shouted as he exerted all his energy in his arms. The rod was bent like a half moon. What kind of big fish could pull the carbon steel fishing rod to this extent?
"Oh my goodness! What is that?" The people fishing on the deck went into an uproar, as if they smelled the bloodiness of the shark. Everyone on the three levels were in shock and shouting!
Thump! The thresher shark was jumping and struggling on the water surface a distance away, as if on steroids. Usually only big, husky people could fish large-size fishes. Although Che Fan looked ordinary, he was still a hunk in every sense. "Ah!" Chen Fan roared again. He unlocked the reel and turned the wheel, hurling the shark toward the ship.
"What's going on? What's going on? Excuse me!" Hearing the commotion on the deck, Wang Bing and company opened up a gap among the onlookers and came in. The three were flabbergasted when they saw Chen Fan battling with the shark.
"Goodness, Bro Chen caught a shark!" Zhang Xueyang covered his mouth and screamed, "Kong Zhi, quick, go get a harpoon."
Wang Bing beamed with joy as he shouted, "Boss, you're damn cool!"
"Haha!" Chen Fan laughed triumphantly as he increased his speed of turning the wheel. The struggling thresher shark got closer to the ship as Chen Fan pulled with all his might. The passengers were full of excitement looking at the more than one meter long shark with its long mast-like tail."
"I've found one!" Zhang Xueyang's driver brought a two-meter long, spear-like harpoon with rope at the bottom. The fifty-centimeter long blade was made up of twenty-four sharp edges. One could imagine the terrible consequences of it being inserted into the body.
"Let me do it!" Wang Bing took over the harpoon and raised it over his head, getting ready to throw it at the shark when the time was right. When the shark was pulled to a distance of three meters away from the ship by Chen Fan, the passengers onboard could see the sharp teeth in its mouth. Wang Bing jumped up. With the strong inertia in his waist and the strength in his arms, he threw the harpoon right through the shark.
Under tremendous pain, the shark thrashed about madly on the surface of the water as if sulfuric acid had been poured over it. Seeing this, Chen Fan quickly reversed the wheel to prevent the shark from breaking the fishing line while struggling. The shark which had been pierced through by the harpoon and struggled in the sea for around ten seconds before dropping its head and turning over.
"Whoa…" Chen Fan wiped the sweat off his forehead excitedly. Shark fishing was indeed a hundred times more exciting than fishing small fishes. In particular, the tremendous strength that came when pulling the fishing rod was even more satisfying than pulling a girl into the nuptial chamber!
Wang Bing spat on his palms and gave them a rub before pulling the shark up from the harpoon with all his strength. "Boss, this shark is definitely more than a hundred kilos!"
"Wow…" The passengers around all gasped in surprise. They were not exclaiming at the shark's weight, but at how this flippant-looking person could carry a hundred kilo weight with just his two hands.
"Heh heh…" Chen Fan grinned with a sinister look before turning his head to look at the pretty girl who had not closed her mouth since the shark appeared.
"Little girl, come sing All Northeastern Chinese are Living Lei Fengs, first!"
