The coastline where Carlin Port was located was called White Bay. It was famous for its beautiful seascape in the entire Gems Sea. As the name suggests, the sand here was white. It was as soft as a woman's plump skin when you touch it gently. The seawater here was clear and transparent. If you catch up with the good weather, you would see the sea and the sky are the same color, and the blue sky is like washing.

Under the guidance of One-eyed, Tonk came to the beach in the northeast of Port Carlin. They did not come to watch the scenery, but to get treasures.

One-eyed had been determined to help Tonk. After he learned that Tonk was short of money, he took the initiative to agree to help Tonk. When he and the rest of the crew escaped from Purgatory, he brought out some treasure and hid it on this beach.

Of course, Tonk was happy to accept this windfall.

"Where is your money hidden?" Tonk asked excitedly, holding a shovel.

"Did you see that coconut tree?" One-eyed pointed to a coconut tree on the beach. There was no other vegetation within five yards of the tree, so it was easy to recognize.

"Is it hiding under a tree?"

"Take that tree as a mark, take one step to the east, seven steps to the south, one step to the west, two steps to the north, three steps to the east, and one step to the south."

Tonk was dizzy when he heard it, and said, "It's so complicated and you can remember it."

"It's my birthday."

Tonk burst out laughing and said, "I also used to use my birthday as a password. It's easy to remember."

He felt that digging for treasure was interesting, so he volunteered. According to One-eyed's instructions, he stepped east and stepped west, and finally stopped in a clearing.

"Those treasures are buried in this place about five yards deep. Let me dig." One-eyed wanted to grab Tonk's shovel.

Tonk took back the shovel and said without any room, "That's not good. This is my first time digging a treasure. You are not allowed to rob it."

"Then I will obey your orders, and you will do it yourself." One-eyed shrugged and took a step back.

Tonk was digging furiously and was not tired at all. As the bunker deepened, he sank. Waves of sand were thrown on the shore, and cold seawater gradually seeped out from the bottom. He took a break in the middle. One-eyed tried to help him again, but Tonk still refused.

Tonk was digging and digging, and it had developed an inertial movement. He even began to wonder if he was digging in the wrong direction. At this moment, the shovel hit some kind of hard object and made a dull sound. He was so excited that he used the shovel to remove all the sand and soil around the hard objects at once A simple square wooden box emerged.

"One-eyed, I find it!"

Tonk couldn't wait to open the wooden box. There was no padlock on it, and the box wasn't metal, both of which disappointed him a little. In fact, this box was temporarily buried by One-eyed and others. They did not take too comprehensive security measures. Some pirates choose to hide their treasure on some isolated island or in a goblin bank.

The box was full of gold coins and jewelry. The golden light was shining brightly, turning Tonk's face golden.

Tonk grabbed a gold coin of excellent color and blew a victory slogan. He put the treasure in a cloth bag and let One Eye hang it.

If these gold coins were given to a commoner, he would be dizzy with happiness. However, One Eye's expression remained the same looking at these gold coins. First, he was a pirate who has seen the world, and he has seen treasures a hundred times more than this. Second, these treasures reminded him of the bits and pieces of Purgatory before. This made him feel even sadder.

Tonk wanted to know the value of these treasures, so he used the investigation technique when he had an idea. It didn't expect the investigation technique to live up to his expectations, and the simple results were displayed in his mind.

The total value of the treasure: 113020 gold coins.

After seeing it, Tonk took a breath and was taken aback. He hurriedly asked, "This box of treasure is worth 100,000 gold coins?"

One-eyed poured cold water and said, "Captain, your concept of gold coins is too bad. Although we are Pirates, we must learn to identify gold and silver jewelry. Otherwise, we will be cheated as dumb when we sell these things."

Tonk was dissatisfied with these remarks and hummed, "You mean this box of treasures is not worth 100,000 gold coins?"

"Of course it's not worth it. According to my estimate, it's around 1,300."

Tonk remained silent. Could it be that there was something wrong with the system? He still trusted the Pirate King system and felt that there should be something strange in it. Maybe One Eye missed some valuables and got the price wrong.

He repeated the investigation several times, and the result was the same. He held the treasure chest under a secluded tree, dug out the items one by one, and investigated them individually except for the gold coins.

One-eyed didn't know why, but he didn't bother. He looked around, beware of being seen. Not revealing wealth is the life creed of pirates.

Rings, bracelets, necklaces, crowns... all kinds of jewelry passed through Tonk's hands. The result of each investigation was: ordinary jewelry. In the end, there was only a steel ring, plain white, with a swirl pattern engraved on it, and a simple fish-shaped pattern on the sides.

Tonk secretly decided that if the jewelry was very ordinary, check the gold coins one by one. He used the investigative technique on the steel ring, and a surprising result came out.

Ring of Sea Vortex Crazy Fish:
Rank: Epic item
Type: Character equipment
Description:

In its long history, this little ring once shined brightly. In the year 1435 of the Golden Sea, in order to clear a route, the Dragon Fang Kingdom slaughtered the White Shells tribe living there, and the fishmen died tragically to tens of thousands of people.

Askar the legendary dwarf craftsman couldn't bear it and decided to help the White Shells tribe resist the attack of the Dragon Fang Kingdom. He used the souls of the Fishmen to create the "Ring of Sea Vortex Crazy Fish". This ring has the power to summon a school of fish to create a vortex. Askar used the ring to protect the remaining members of the White Shells tribe to escape and later gave the ring to them.

Sadly, the Fishman coveted other treasures on Askar. They repaid Askar's kindness with revenge and they killed him. But the merciless fishmen did not get Askar's treasure, because Askar used all the treasures on his body to smelt this ring. He had already nothing left.

Effect: Create a huge whirlpool on the sea surface of 1000 square meters, you can control the direction of the whirlpool at will, last for 5 minutes.
How to use: Say the spell "Sea creatures, please help me" to the ring to activate its power.
Remaining number of uses: 4 each use will consume the power contained in the item until it eventually becomes an ordinary item. This ring has been used many times, and the power contained in the ring is very small.

Because the system determined that the ring already belonged to Tonk, the information obtained was extremely complete.

Tonk suddenly jumped up from the ground, staring at this inconspicuous ring, which turned out to be epic equipment! This is completely beyond his expectations. He has been around for so long, and the great sword in his hand is just an ordinary item. He didn't expect to get an epic-level item today, which spanned several item levels, second only to the artifact.

Looking at the effect again, it turned out to be creating a whirlpool on the sea! With such power, it is enough to directly destroy a ship!

No wonder the system had determined that this pile of treasures was worth 100,000 gold coins. With this epic ring, of course it could be sold at this price, and the actual price might be higher.

"What's wrong with you!?" Seeing that Tonk was strange, he approached and asked.

Tonk was petrified. He carefully looked at the system introduction. The ring in his hand had a mysterious attraction, shining with a bright metallic luster, and the swirling carving seemed to be slowly turning.

He put it on the index finger of his right hand. In order to cover up the specialty of this ring, he brought two other ordinary rings in his hand.

"Are you all right?" One-eyed asked again.

Tonk recovered as before, and smiled lightly, "It's okay. I just like these rings."

One-eyed thought that Tonk was greedy for money, and felt a little disdain in his heart, even a little disappointment. How could such a person be able to do big business?

Tonk patted the sand and dirt on his body, then said with a big hand, "Pack up all the gold coins and jewelry. Let's go."

One-eyed silently led the order, packed all the treasures in a bag, and carried it on his shoulders. The two walked back side by side. Five days away from Port Carlin.

Tonk rubbed the ring while walking, and he couldn't help but want to try the power of the ring. Although the ring had a limit on the number of times it can be used. If he didn't know the specific situation, he would be in a hurry when he use it.

It can be used four times, so why not one less?

"One-eyed."

"Yes?"

"Let me show you something fun."

"A fun thing?"

Tonk had never been an indecisive person. He made a resolute decision, turned to face the sea, clenched his right fist, and chanted a spell at the ring. His voice was so low that only he could hear it.

The sea was as calm as ever. One-eyed was unclear. Tonk waited quietly.

Soon, Tonk felt a sense in his heart. He felt the life of the sea jumping, and thousands of creatures were wandering in the sea. His heart established a connection with their hearts and responded to each other. At this moment, they were willing to be mobilized by Tonk. The school of fish became restless, scurrying around, and they were ready to go. The school of fish in the distance was swimming fast here.

He felt that if he didn't give orders again, the group of fish would go crazy. He transmitted his thoughts with his mind and told the group of fish where he wanted to destroy.

The fish swam to the area in unison and soon gathered a large group. They swam regularly in groups to form a circle. The force of this swimming stirred the seawater, forming a whirlpool, and continuously enhanced.

The sea let out a raging roar!

A whirlpool was formed, the sea water turned wildly, and the middle part sank like a funnel.

Tonk opened his palm and pointed to the sea in the distance as if he had the power to control life and death, majestic and invincible.

"This... this is...!"

One-eyed eyeball was about to pop out, staring at the sea surface that formed the whirlpool. He was inexplicably horrified. The power that Tonk showed at this time was really terrifying. If such a big vortex could be created, even a fleet like Black Toads would be vulnerable! A whirlpool could directly sink a large ship! This was really too terrifying power, shocking.

"Captain, are you a magician?" One-eyed asked dumbly.

In this world, there were very few magicians. They were supreme beings, and they had the reputation of being demigods.

Tonk didn't have time to answer, his mind was already closely integrated with the school of fish. He carefully controlled the direction of the whirlpool. Although the speed was much slower than that of the sailboat, it would fall into it as long as the hull touched the edge.

One-eyed had seen many wonders at sea, and today he had gained insight again.

Five minutes later, Tonk's connection with the fish was cut off. A jolt in his mind and he returned to normal.

He recalled the process of controlling the fish just now. The feeling was very wonderful. The powerful force was like poisonous fruit, which made people like sweets. It was as inextricable as poisoning.

One-eyed excitedly grabbed Tonk's hand and asked endless questions.

Tonk had no choice but to answer mysteriously, "I'm not a magician, but just like you have a special eye, I also have something special." He patted One-eyed shoulder, "Trust me, This sea is my world sooner or later."
