42 What a great day

after hearing Mr Harvey declaration some of the crew looked towards Alex with pity

"Mr Havery don't be to hard on your disciple" a old man with a peg leg said in response to Mr Harvey's order to Alex

"don't worry firstmate John I'm sure Alex could handle it after all he could now pull 27 silver back in this deck within 6 hours, and his luck also made me think that this disciple of mine is born for fishing" Mr Havery said

"your rigth with that I mean who could hook 27 silver back in 6 hours but still"

"you worry to much firstmate john I'm sure Alex could handle a puny shark rigth my disciple " Mr Havery bellowed

mean while Alex was busy stuffing his mouth with food raised his head after hearing his master question, he swallowed is food hurriedly

"amm... yes you could count on me"alex answer while tumbing his chest

"see" Mr Havery turned to the first mate and said

"your disciple your choice" John stands from where he is sitting and eyed alex

"be more carefull kids " he said as he continued to walk outside using on of his peg leg

alex was a bit bewildered why would a level 9 mutant be scared of a shark, or what happened to one of the mans leg, turning his he toward Mr Harvey he asked

"what happened to his legs? "

"a that... it was bitten off 5 months ago"Mr Havery answered

"by what?"

"sharks"Mr Havery said nonchalantly as he sit near alex then ordered some food

Alex "..."

upper deck

"this kid, he was only out here for 4 day in the sea and yet he had managed to increase his strength in such a terrifying speed not only that his even lucky to have a rare trait, if this continues he could surpass me but I need to keep that for myself so that he will continued to train diligently" Mr Havery

on he other hand Alex was a bit tipsy to think that the shark here could bite off a level 9 mutant foot off so what do alex amount to , but even still Alex was also a excited to fight such a beast in battle called fishing

taking a bait that was provided Mr Havery he noticed that this bait was also the same type of bait that Mr Havery always uses so he came to an conclusion that Mr Harvery has also fishing for this beast

so without thinking twice he grabbed the hard shelled lobsters and tied it his hook after that he untied the hard rope that was emmovalizing,

the lobsters begane to move it body trying to pinch alex so he immediately cast it to the sea and waited for some thing to bite

but after one hour of waiting there are no other movements from the bait except from occasional pulls coming from the bait itself or from other fishes that has tried to bite it but failed miserably because of the lobster hard shell

with that he grab a chair near by then sit there for another one hour, he pulled his line only to see that his bait was surprisingly intact so he stand up and cast his line angrily I as far as he could then he sat again in foldable chair

"don't be to so hasty Alex sharks here are a bit rare in the ocean so don't expect that you could hook one easily , even I your master didn't hook one after casting my line for 4 day straight so I doubt that you could easily hook one" Mr Havery said coolly as he walk beside alex while casting his line in the other direction

Alex didnt answer

suddenly the line from Alex rod straighten in a forcefull manner making a vibrating sound, alex was exerting all of his strength to hold his rod then after a short while a giant figure could be seen from afar jumping out of the water

"..."Mr Havery

"is this a shark? I was quite a handfull " Alex said while blue vain's starting to show in his neck and arms

"your just lucky and obcourse its a shark but hey would you like me to help you pull it in? " Mr Havery asked he was also abit excited after all this is one of the reason why he chose to go here

"no need Master as you had said earlier I could handle this somehow" Alex

hearing his disciple respond Mr Havery began to regret saying that line he should had said that Alex will only help him hook one and not fight with it

but he thinks that alex would most likely to give up half way then surrender his rod to him with that Mr Havery began to observe Alex to find an opportunity to asked the rod from him

Alex on the other hand noticed Mr Havery intense gaze,and he knew what he wanted so after 20 min of holding without reeling he pass the rod to Mr Havery

after all he has already used every ounce of his strength and he knew that he couldn't possibly pulled the shark in his state

after Mr Havery received the rod he begane to smile in excitement then he pulled the rod in a relaxed manner for another 20 min

"what a great day! " Mr Havery yelled as shark that was that 30 feet in length jump to air from the water
