Cracker Jack was surprised and mumbled, "You could talk?"
"Almost everyone of us can talk here except the young son of the Emperor," the goldfish replied.
Cracker Jack: Ha? Really. How come he cannot talk while you can?
Gold fish: The emperor's young son is only a year old.
Cracker Jack: And - how old are you?
Gold fish: You wont believe me. I'm over 150 years old.
All the crew boastfully laughed so loud, and one of them suffered a stomach ache. One guy had a hard time breathing.
Henry: That's impossible! Goldfish never live that long period of time.
Goldfish: That's what you think. Wait till you see the creatures out there.
Jerry: Oh, are you scaring all of us with your fancy little tale of yours?
Goldfish: Hmmm----(then the fish laughed hysterically). You know what? You can believe me or not but I like you Cracker Jack and your funny men. You're all dim-witted. Hehehehehe!
After Jack introduced the rest of his merry men he asked the goldfish who wants to be called Golda.
Cracker Jack: Would you like to help us find the golden ivory? And how we can have it right away?
Golda: You mean to say you are here for that golden relic? Uhm...you will have a problem. Big problem you know. The sacred relic belongs to the young emperor Toyotami.
Jack thought he could see the young emperor and then he could probably ask him instead or his parents.
Based from the old ancient story the Tokugawa's empire had their wealth progresses through their field of soya beans that never stop growing until it fills the whole empire. The whole kingdom is filled with variety of beans except the pond where Golda lives. It is the only source of water. The pond is clear and clean. Dr. Waldo Turner tested the water if it's okay. It just need chlorine tablets and it's safe for drinking. Or you can boil the water up to a safe boiling point to make sure that there is no bacteria.
Jack: Golda we have to keep on walking then to find the kingdom of Toyotami. If you don't like to help us we'll just settle to our own plan.
Jack and his men walked down the ladder and tried to jump from the last step to the bank of the pond. Only then they realized the pond is bigger than what it is. It's more than a lake. It's a river!
"Yeah right!" "Make it an ocean, gushed Jerry. It is ambiguous alright.
Justin: You have to widen your eyes.
Pressurized inside their spaceship that their vision has deceived them. They all agreed. They all said goodbye to Golda. Golda just nod and gave them a big smile.

Chapter 6 - Cracker Jack Lobster - A Pond of Gold
The whole crew did a thorough research at the mini-library to ease the pain of boredom. The exact location of where to land in Japan. They found the chronological time order but where? The safest landing ---
Cracker Jack's spaceship has a jet propulsion 5x faster than the usual rocket. It's also a time machine so the whole crew did their calculation and estimated the landing would be on this part of the Earth.
Without further ado the spaceship landed safely. They all screamed, shouted that they safely landed on solid ground. The ship was on a well balance position. They were in good health and good spirit. No one was harmed. Their ego is still intact. Waldo Turner checked their pulse, heartbeat, blood pressure. Everything's okay. Nothing to worry assured Dr. Waldo.
Excited and nervous, they all proceeded to the gate of their spaceship. Waiting for some more instructions from Cracker Jack the troops are about to thread (tread) in to a foreign land they haven't seen in their life time only now. Again they heard Cracker Jack instructed them
to be careful and always be prepared.
When Jack opened the exit door of their ship, the ladder metal ladder automatically hit the cold water of a pond!
"We're in a pond?" Jake couldn't believed what he see.
"So what if we're in a pond?, Dr waldo said. "At least it's the safest place." We're not harmed whatsoever." You must be thankful."
The pond is filled with water lillies, hyacinth, irises on the other side of the bank, and not to mention the many colorful yellow-orange school of fish. Lots of them.
When the fish saw the troops coming down from the ladder they all started flipping and swarming towards them. As if they were some kind of magnet to them.
They were like obedient sheep paying them too much attention. Their mouth wide open for something.
Cracker Jack: It must be food they are after ha.
Jack dig deep down his pockets if he had some bread crumbs left over from his breakfast.
As soon as he threw the crumbs on the water, all the fish rushed in to dive and get the fish food right away. They were so happy and delighted. The men were quite astonished but they seemed extra overjoyed to see them hurrying for food.
Then after a minute, a big orange gold fish leaped towards Jack and landed on the big green lilly pad. It winked and blinked its funny goofy eyelashes and big bright blue eyes and begged, " Do you have graham crackers?"
