Lu Ao followed his gaze toward the distance.
That was the direction of the coast.
Lu Ao immediately understood what these people were doing. They wanted to drive the Dolphin into the bay by the shore.
Then they would use fishing nets to block the Dolphin's retreat and gradually close in, shrinking the space between the nets and the coast.
The Dolphin would be trapped in that tiny area, left entirely at their mercy to be picked over.
A nameless fury rose within Lu Ao.
He was a Dragon, and also a fisherman. He normally held no ill will toward people who caught fish. Humans were part of nature too, and there was nothing strange about eating fish.
