However, the sea dragon's footsteps stopped in the Okinawa Islands. Although Hong Long set a goal for himself to be in the Hokkaido fishing ground, this guy was lost in the warm Okinawa Trench waters.

Then the whaling ship is Honglong's unimaginable enemy, which is even more hateful than the fishing ship. The Big 6 has already stopped commercial whaling, and even scientific research whaling has stopped - the so-called scientific research whaling is commercial whaling? Only the Japanese are doing such things. It's not just the Japanese, but also Norway. Although Honglong cannot attack Norwegian whaling ships in the North Atlantic, the Japanese whaling ships that attacked the Okinawa Sea are still happy.

There are many uninhabited islands in the Ryukyu Islands. The terrain of these islands is quite complex. They are basically rocky islands with quite a few sea caves. It is a very good place for Honglong, a sea dragon that is more than ten meters long. As for attacking whaling ships, Japan's whaling also has seasons, and there are not always ships hunting whales on the sea.

However, Hong Long chose his residence for himself as Ximiao Island, Japan's National Nature Reserve. Eighty-nine major forests on the island are uninhabited primeval forests. This guy installed the caves he mainly lived in the sea erosion cave under the stone coast near the primeval forest. Of course, the little tiger fish also swims here. This guy has grown to four meters long. Just when he goes out and is seen by fishermen, he is enough to call him a sea monster.

There are local residents on Nishimoi Island and an important place for marine research, so there is a population of about 2,000 people living here. There are only two schools, one elementary school and one middle school. If you want to go to high school, you have to go to Iwo Jima, Okinawa or Ishigaki Island, closer. Most of the children here are children of fishermen. They have learned to make a living in the ocean with their elders since childhood, at least they can fish and play by themselves, and from time to time they can dive into the water to touch beautiful shells.

Taro Kageyama is such a child. His family lives in a village near the coast. The village with a cement road is very small, and his family is at the end. During the holidays, Taro Kageyama, who is ten years old, likes to go down the mountain to the beach from the small path behind his home, where there is a small stone pier, and the traditional catamaran wooden boats of Ryukyu fishermen are parked below. With the progress of the times, these fishing boats have long been replaced. Here are the boats that Taro's father specially stayed for his sons to play. Taro is accustomed to rowing boats alone or with his friends, crossing the bay to the island and reaching into a cape on the ocean, which is their secret base. Taro once caught a large sea bass there.

On this day, Taro was walking alone on the path, and the sun shone on the sea. From his height, the sea surface was divided into bright and dark parts by the clouds and sunlight in the sky, changing. Even though the child had seen such a beautiful scenery many times since he was a child, he still couldn't see enough. Taro, who stopped on the road, enjoyed the sea view for a few minutes, and then he remembered the primary school teacher who had just arrived. The child who was a countryman looked really beautiful. The female teacher heard that he came from Tokyo and taught them English. The boy looked forward to the female teacher for a few minutes, and then began to walk down the path again.

Just as he turned his head and looked at the road, he suddenly felt something seemed to be seen in the corner of his eyes. The boy suddenly turned his head and looked at the sea surface. On the sea surface about three kilometers away from him, there seemed to be a long stick-like thing outside the bay that was moving across the water. At this distance, Taro Kazuo couldn't see clearly. He couldn't tell what it was. But this thing could move, and the color looked deeper than the sea water. Soon, the stick-like thing suddenly turned an angle and then disappeared in the depths of the sea water and disappeared.

Taro frowned and looked for a long time. He was not sure what he saw. Children of this age were actually very interesting in knowledge. Boys like all kinds of monsters, and of course they also like dinosaurs, sea monsters, etc. They firmly believe that there are many boys living ancient creatures in this world. But Taro is a more mature child. He would not just tell his friends that he quickly went down the mountain along the road, but when he was standing at the small pier, Taro showed up that he could not see the strange stick swimming in the sea.

Taro Kageyama waited for a long time, but he did not see a stick-like creature reappearing. In the end, the child decided to row a boat to the sea. But for safety reasons, he planned to row along the coast instead of going straight through the entrance of the bay to the cape as before. Later in the day, Taro was always uneasy when fishing, and always felt that something seemed to be swimming in the water - poor here is the shallow sea, and the sun is quite good. If there is really something big in the water, he would probably be able to see it - at least he could do it in the fishing place.

However, until Taro caught a bucket of various fish, he did not find anything strange. Then the little guy rowed the boat straight through the entrance of the bay as before, and returned to his home at the pier at the foot of the mountain. After tied up the boat, he went up the path and prepared to go home. Before turning to see the bay, Taro turned his head and took a look. The red sunset spread the golden red sunlight on the sea from a very low direction. The sunlight reflected by the waves made it impossible to see anything clearly. Taro felt that there was indeed something swimming among the waves, but if you look closely, you could not see anything except the reflected light.
