World’s End: My Keyword is One More Than Others

Chapter 131: Pink flag

The days drifting at sea were boring.

Moreover, there were only a few people on the ship, and they had already squeezed out all the joy they could from them. If they wanted to continue improving using joy, they could only wait until they reached the shore and influence more people with joy.

Therefore.

Du Ge could only focus his life on fishing.

In the simulation field, strength was the foundation of survival. Otherwise, when encountering other players, he would be killed instantly, and even if he had excellent advanced skills, it would be useless.

Moreover, the information on the ship was closed off, and he couldn't do anything other than fishing.

When the captain fished and went out to sea to fish, Du Ge's strength improved rapidly.

There were too many fish in the sea. Every time he caught one, his strength would increase by one point.

Occasionally, he would luckily encounter a school of sardines or a group of large fish like whales and sharks. Du Ge's attributes would soar like a rocket.

At this time, there were only over six hundred candidates left in the simulation field. It had to be said that even for elites, it was difficult to survive and stay in the simulation field.

In the end, this was a game based on luck.

Not to mention, with his kind of death at the beginning, nine out of ten would not survive.

If he only had the keyword "fishing," he wouldn't be able to recover even if he wanted to. You could still fish even if you threw it into the sea.

If he lost his life, he would be directly eliminated, and even if the fish gnawed his body clean, his attributes wouldn't grow...

...

Through these few days of fishing, Du Ge gained new experience.

Dolphins were not fish, turtles were not fish, crabs were not fish, and touching them wouldn't increase any attributes.

However, touching octopuses, whales, and squids would increase attributes.

In the definition of biology, octopuses and squids were mollusks, and whales were mammals, but here, they were all considered fish.

In other words.

There were two ways the simulation field judged fish. One was if it was originally a fish, and the other was if the name had the word "fish."

According to this algorithm, Du Ge felt that if he touched Jiang Xiaoyu from The Peerless Twins, he could also make her his private possession...

Being skilled at fishing was more suitable when paired with a skill that could change other people's names.

...

On the fifth day of drifting at sea, Du Ge finally saw land.

Pirate ships needed to dock to replenish supplies and fresh water. Barry and the others lowered the pirate flag and replaced it with a regular merchant ship flag.

After all, pirates were illegal organizations. If they openly docked with the pirate flag, it would be a provocation to the navy and would immediately be met with coastal artillery fire and naval encirclement.

No pirate ship would be stupid enough to do that.

But after taking down the pirate flag, even if the coastal garrison knew they were pirates, they would turn a blind eye and let them replenish supplies on the shore.

After all.

Pirates going ashore also meant spending money, which could promote the economic circulation of coastal towns.

...

Du Ge leaped out of the sea and onto the deck. He shook off the water droplets from his hair and came to Barry's side, smiling. "Barry, after we go ashore, find a tailor shop and let's change the flag."

"What should we change it to?" Barry's heart skipped a beat and asked.

"Didn't I tell you before? A pink flag with a smiling skull." Du Ge looked at Barry strangely, looking at the pirate hat on his head. "Not only should we change the flag, but we should also change the pattern on our pirate hats. We want to be a group of pirates who can bring joy to others. And, I'm planning to change the name of the ship as well, to the Smiling Angel."

"Paul, if we do that, our peers will laugh at us, and from then on, no one will be afraid of us." Barry's face turned red, "I strongly disagree with changing the flag to pink."

"But this is my ship. Why should I need your permission to change it?" Du Ge said, "I can change it to whatever I want. I can even paint the whole ship pink and cover it with women's underwear..."

"Paul, if you insist on changing the flag to pink, me, Wayne, and everyone on the ship will leave." Barry said angrily.

"I don't care! I've already lost my memory. To me, you guys are just like a group of strangers." Du Ge smiled, "Anyway, we're about to go ashore. I can recruit a new group of sailors anytime, people who share the same goals as me. I will go with them to find happiness..."

Damn it!

Barry was stunned. He suddenly realized that the memory-less Paul was just using them to bring the ship back to the shore.

The matter of the ship being his that he had thought of before didn't exist at all.

As long as Paul was alive, the ship would always belong to Paul, and no one could take it away...

But could he really give up this ship?

How was that possible?

If he could afford a ship, he would have become a captain himself a long time ago!

Moreover, after Paul became powerful, they hadn't even done a proper job yet, and he didn't even have a pension...

Damn Paul!

At this moment, he suddenly missed the previous Paul who was determined to find the Trident of the Sea God and become the Pirate King.At least that Paul still had an ambitious fighting spirit, not like now, only wanting to be a clown who brings joy to the world!

......

"Paul, have you ever thought about seeking the Trident of Poseidon?" Barry took a deep breath, looked at Du Ge, and laughed, "That's your dream. If you're willing to give up that damn pink skull, we're willing to accompany you to find the Trident of Poseidon, to make the Flying Giant Bird the ruler of the entire ocean......"

"Barry, the Trident of Poseidon is a trap." Du Ge shrugged, "Life is short, why should we fight to the death with others for a false name, instead of seeking more happiness in this short life? Right, Wayne?"

"......" Wayne kept silent with a dark face.

The parrot Wendy had become familiar with Du Ge these days. Perhaps its brain capacity was limited, and it had long forgotten about the ghost. It opened its mouth and shouted, "Pink skull, Paul, Barry says you're a clown."

"Shut up."

Wayne and Paul scolded at the same time.

The parrot fluttered its wings and flew away, standing on the mast and continuing to shout, "Barry also said you would turn into a monster......"

"Barry, did you really say that?" Du Ge asked, "In your heart, am I that unbearable?"

"Paul, don't listen to that stupid bird's nonsense." Barry looked at Du Ge and suddenly sighed, "At this point, we can't lie to you anymore. Paul, you lost your memory, not because you hit your head, but because you made a deal with the sea monster Selma. You exchanged your past memories for immortality, just to become the Pirate King one day.

You've paid too much for the position of Pirate King. If you insist on changing the pirate flag to pink, when you get your memory back from Selma, won't you hate your current self?"

"I made a deal with Selma?" Du Ge was stunned.

"If you don't believe it, you can stab yourself." Barry said, "An ordinary person's wound won't heal automatically, nor can they hold their breath underwater for half an hour."

Du Ge pulled out his curved knife with doubt, cut his arm, and then, he was surprised to find that the wound really healed quickly. He said with joy on his face, "By the gods of the sea, I actually have immortality."

"Paul, with immortality, you have the qualifications to compete for the King of the Sea. Why do you want to turn yourself into a clown?" Barry said with a heavy heart.

"Barry, if I become the King of the Sea, can I make all pirate ships fly the pink flag?" Du Ge suddenly got excited.

Are you having a feud with the pink flag?

Barry cursed in his heart, he gritted his teeth and said, "Of course, the premise is that you have to become the Pirate King first. Then, you can write your rules into the Pirate Code, even make them dance before boarding the ship."

"So we'll become the Pirate King first?" Du Ge looked around at everyone.

All the sailors on the deck nodded at the same time.

"Paul, it's meaningless to just let one ship fly the pink flag. If you want to fly it, fly it on all the pirate ships in the world." Barry saw that his persuasion worked, and he continued to strike while the iron was hot like coaxing a child, "We are all familiar with this ship, and everyone is united. We can all assist you to become the Pirate King, as long as you give up the idea of dyeing the flag pink."

"Really?" Du Ge asked.

"Really."

Everyone nodded again.

Wayne said, "But you must give up the idea of hanging a pink flag."

"I can give up hanging a pink flag, but are you willing to add a suffix to your names for me?" Du Ge looked around at everyone, his face earnest, "I firmly believe that sea fish can bring me luck. I want everyone to add the name of a sea fish after their names. For example, you, Barry Sullivan, can you add the word 'Flying Fish' after your name? How about changing it to Barry Sullivan Flying Fish? After all, when a sea fish falls into the water, it won't die......"
