I run a bank in Tokyo

Chapter 234 Octopus
Takeshiba Wharf is the entrance to the Izu Islands and Ogasawara Islands. It is 465 meters long and 7.5 meters deep. It has 3 berths and is mainly used for passenger transportation.

But when the ocean changed drastically, the facilities at Takeshiba Wharf were almost completely destroyed!
Crustal changes.

Broaden and deepen!
Today's Zhushiba Wharf has a water depth of more than 17 meters and has the potential to become a cargo terminal.

However, if the transformation is to be completed, the cost may be a huge figure!

In normal times, the government might not care too much.

But now the entire coastline has suffered a huge impact, such as most of the docks in Tokyo Port, there are countless places that need money, and it is impossible for the government to spend so much money!And in the case of unknown prospects, it is impossible to plan the layout.

That's why the Mitsui family was able to buy Takeshiba Wharf.

However, before the work of salvaging and clearing the ruins was completed, a very cunning sea monster was encountered here as a habitat.

Then I gave it to him as a matter of course.

You can repay the favor of saving your life, you can also lend his hand to clean up the sea monster, and then rent it back for your own use, and you can also develop a relationship with him.

Shin Seijuro did not refuse.

Not to mention the life-saving grace given to Mitsui Natsuko and the credit for saving the world, a different dock would be more than enough.

With such a pier, it will be convenient for him to transport things back from the island in the future.

Even if his soul is injured now, he wouldn't care about an ordinary sea monster.

After releasing the domineering aura of knowledge, he easily sensed the aura of this sea monster and wandered not far away.

The huge soul breath, active and agile, represents not low strength and high wisdom.

Look at the shape, it is an octopus.

Looking at the size, the head and body are about 10 meters long, and the length of the tentacles is more than 50 meters.

No wonder!
An octopus of this size is afraid that even a smaller warship can drag it into the water!
Coupled with the intelligence of the legendary octopus, if the brain also develops along with the size, it is afraid that the intelligence level is no less than that of humans!
It's just, very strange, that he actually felt a sense of familiarity in the soul breath of this octopus!

Is it his fault again?

But with his memory, he couldn't remember it no matter what!

In addition, although the sea water in this world does not have a strong restraining effect on the devil fruit, after all, it has absorbed the original breath of the pirate world, and still has a certain degree of restraining effect on the ability of the devil fruit.It stands to reason that it is impossible for Homiz to survive in the ocean, and he did not try to make Homiz from the creatures in the ocean.

However, apart from Homiz, he didn't know where this sense of familiarity came from.

If you can't figure it out, don't think about it, he directly released his soul breath.

An octopus that had just hunted a lobster that was more than 10 meters long had a sudden meal, then threw away the lobster it caught, and rushed towards his direction.

Shin Seijuro also jumped forward to greet him.

The two sides also met at a distance of more than 100 meters from the shore.

The huge octopus stuck its head out in the sea, staring at him with a pair of washbasin-sized eyes, and its tentacles were dancing under the sea surface.

Excited but also a little wary.

Shinsei Juro frowned slightly.

It has been confirmed that Homiz is not made by himself!
However, the sense of familiarity became more and more clear.

"Can you talk?" After a moment of confrontation, he asked tentatively.

"Yes." A childish voice sounded, as if it were a seven or eight-year-old boy. He was excited, intimate, and yet wary, like a child meeting his father for the first time.

Heck!

How could I have this idea?
After Jin Qingjuro dispelled the thoughts in his head, he asked, "Are you here to find me?"

Judging from the behavior and characteristics of this octopus, it is probably really his fault.

Although it is not clear where this pot came from.

But how could an octopus talk except for Homiz?
"Yes." Octopus answered all questions, looking like he wanted to get close but didn't dare to get close.

"Why are you looking for me?" Shin Kiyojuro asked.

The octopus looked at him with a pair of big "watery" eyes, seemed to have some resentment?
Shin Seijuro couldn't help but the corners of his eyes twitched.

What does it mean?
I have never done anything that is messed up and abandoned... Bah!

His preferences are normal!
"I don't know either, instinct tells me." After a moment, Octopus replied.

Jinqing Juro couldn't help but start to think about his omissions.

The result is, no!

Looks like we need to have a good talk.

"Is there an island nearby? Find a convenient place for me to stop." Although there are no sightseeing boats and there are fewer people near Zhuzhi Pier, there are still some people walking by the sea at night.

For Tokyoites, 1 or 2 am is not too late.

"Yes." The octopus led the way.

After about 5000 meters, a lone reef appeared.

The volume is too small, and it is more appropriate to describe it as a reef compared to an island.

It was not too far from the dark clouds here, and with Shin Seijuro's hearing, he could clearly hear the sound of the rainstorm falling.

Crackling, the movement is comparable to hail!
Occasionally there are thunder and lightning, howling winds, and layers of dark clouds that threaten to press down on the sea surface, giving people an apocalyptic feeling.

He landed on the reef, sat down, and looked out to sea.

Affected by the violent storm over there, the sea surface fluctuated and surged irregularly.

Under the sea surface, the turbulence is more rapid, and some smaller fish cannot move freely.

However, these did not affect the octopus in the slightest.

A pair of large eyes appeared on the deep blue sea, looking directly at him again.

"I feel that there is a familiar breath in your soul. Do you also feel this way?" Shin Seijuro asked.

"Yes!" There was more joy in the octopus' voice.

"Describe how you feel about me." Shin Seijuro narrowed his eyes slightly, and there was also a bit of vigilance in his eyes.

He remembered clearly that he had never tried to use sea creatures to make Homitz, nor had he ever thrown a soul light ball.Moreover, this octopus did not have the respect for itself that Homitz deserved.

Don't play your own mind!
Because of the series of experiences last night, he now feels like he is in danger.

"Father?" Octopus was silent for a while, during which he kept sneaking glances at him, as if he wanted to say something but didn't dare, seeing him waiting silently, finally shouted.

A few black lines appeared on Shinseijuro's forehead!

What and what!
"Do you know what this title means? I can't be your father!" He didn't feel soft-hearted because of its childish voice and "big watery eyes". After denying it unceremoniously, he said: "Tell me about you. origin!"

Being rejected by him, Octopus actually showed an aggrieved expression.

However, he still told his origins honestly.

According to it, a few months ago, after eating something, it suddenly became intelligent and its body size began to grow rapidly.

On the night when the ocean changed drastically, another qualitative leap took place, and it became almost the same body shape as it is now, and the soul also tended to be perfect.

At the same time, an inexplicable guidance awakened in its soul.

It followed this guide and found it all the way here.

That's it.

Jinqing Juro vaguely grasped something, and after it finished speaking, he suddenly asked, "Where did you come from?"
