Chapter 272 Sea Creature

Apollo slid down the ladders and looked to the second floor, where Mars returned to his cabin amid eerie silence.

"Did I just hear him right?" Ambrose asked Apollo to make sure.

"Unfortunately, yes." Apollo sighed and massaged his temples. "I have known Mars for five years, yet I didn't expect this."

A green-haired young man arrived at the deck after recovering from exhaustion.

He touched his earlobe and asked. "I heard something; what did Mars say?"

Looking at Loki, Apollo sighed and repeated what Mars said.

Loki's expression turned serious as he listened to Apollo's words.

"That lunatic." Damian came from indoors as he also heard Apollo, and he shook his head. "What can we possibly do against the Sea King and his fleet?" n./OVE1bIn

"Are they strong?" Ambrose asked, as he had only heard about the names Death King and Sea King but wasn't that knowledgeable about them.

He wondered if they were as formidable as their names implied.

"Sea King has the mightiest fleet in Pirate Battleground." Damian said with crossed arms. "People say that in the sea, Sea King is undefeated."

"Sea King apparently has power to control the sea," Apollo said from the side. "I heard rumors of entire storms bending to his will."

"His fleet commanders are also really scary." Loki said. "That Red-Eyed Bonney was just one of the commanders, but she alone was an A-ranked captain. There are multiple stronger A-ranked commanders working for the Sea King."

"Mars might be strong enough to fight against the Sea King, but if the fight happens in the sea, Mars might lose."

Ambrose turned thoughtful. 'That would be magnificent if Mars died, but that could also mean our death...'

He looked at the others and frowned deeply. 'I wonder if there is a way to escape the pursuit of the Sea King and keep our lives.'

"We'll have to prepare for any fights." Apollo sighed and opened the latch to the lower deck. "I'll prepare the cannons. Mind waking up others and saying that we are going to war?"

"I'll do it." Damian said and left to share the dire news with everyone.

'I'll need to talk to Bonney.' Ambrose put his hands inside his pockets and returned to his cabin.

After taking out the parchment paper, jar of black ink, and ink pen, he sat down on the chair and placed the Sky Fall pearl on the desk.

The familiar eye swam inside the pearl.

"You heard it all?"

The eye shook left and right as confirmation.

"What will happen there?" Ambrose asked quite a vague question and then began reciting the alphabet.

Soon, words appeared on the parchment paper.

The sentence read, "You all will die."

"How comforting." Ambrose chuckled mockingly. "Is there a way to escape Sea King with our lives intact?"

The eye didn't shake, meaning that, according to her, it wasn't possible.

"Heh." Ambrose massaged his temples in frustration. "At least I might have a chance to go to Breast Island, if we are lucky."

At that moment, a question arose in his mind.

He asked, "What if I give you to Sea King? You and him can go kill Mars, get the mace back to him, and because I helped you, ask him to spare our lives."

The eye didn't move.

Ambrose began reciting the alphabet to get an answer out of her.

The sentence soon read, "I can't let Sea King find out that I lost his mace."

"I see..." Ambrose felt like there was something ongoing behind the scenes but didn't bother to ask and instead tossed the pearl back into his inventory.

Thud—the ship suddenly rocked back and forth as if it were struck by a powerful wave.

The candle on the deck fell over, causing a small fire to ignite on the floor.

"Shit..." Ambrose stood up and stomped down the fire, soon killing it before it managed to consume the rest of the ship.

As soon as he put the candle back on the desk, he heard loud shouting from the deck.

"What is it now?" Ambrose asked from himself and left his cabin, soon arriving at the deck.

He saw most of the crew leaning over the railing, shock plastered on their faces.

Even Mars was standing on the second floor, looking in the same direction with a serious frown.

Ambrose walked over to the crew and looked in the same direction. His breath almost stopped at the shocking sight.

A massive tentacle, covered in slimy scales, was reaching out from the foggy sea below towards the clouds above. It was absolutely massive, making the Black Heart ship look like a mere speck in comparison.

"W-what the fuck?" Ambrose whispered, and with a fearful gaze, he dropped his gaze to the foggy sea below.

If the simple tentacle was that big, just how big was the creature below the sea that was lurking in the depths?

"It's the Kraken..." Damian whispered fearfully. "It must also be Adult Kraken."

At one of the cabins, Ors peeked out from the window towards the massive tentacle and started praying for Anti-Christ with all his might.

The purple tentacle pierced through the clouds high above, and after reaching high enough, the tentacle fell down as if the creature were simply lowering its arm.

However, the massive tentacle was falling down to the Black Heart ship!

"Holy fuck!" Henri screamed.

Zero's face was paler than usual, and he thought about using his "Zero Impact," but after further consideration, he realized he wouldn't be able to stop the tentacle even for a second.

'Should I use Sky Fall?' Ambrose thought, but at the final moment, he closed his eyes and gritted his teeth. 'I can't, or Mars will find out about it, and if the pearl destroys, Bonney might die as well.'

Mars scoffed and ran back inside his cabin, and soon he returned with the Mace of the Sea King.

He lifted it high above his head, and the strange engravings on the mace lit up like a beacon in the dark night.

"Sea Creature, I command you to stop this attack!"

The tentacle didn't stop, and soon, its shadow was cast across a 10-kilometer radius, making it look like night had fallen.

"Kraken, the King of the Sea Depths, spare us!" Mars tried one more time with a loud scream.

At last, a peaceful hum rocked the seabed and caused powerful waves to crash against the ship's hull.

The Kraken, far away in the depths, slowly retracted its enormous tentacle, which had been poised to strike. Once the tentacle was submerged below the foggy sea, an enormous wave suddenly engulfed the ship, threatening to capsize it.

"Mars Right!" Mars screamed and sent a powerful right-handed hook, which connected with the wave and sent a shockwave rippling through the water.

The wave exploded, but the shockwave sent the ship rocking across the stormy seas, threatening to capsize it.

At the last possible moment, Leon turned the helm and stabilized the ship.

With a sigh of relief, most of the crew slouched down. They really thought they were all going to die.

"What is this place?" Ambrose asked as he looked out at the foggy sea, imagining the terrifying creature right below them. He felt chills like icy fingers running down his spine.

He had never felt something like this before.

Not when he faced Reinhardt or Mars.

This was a feeling of pure terror after seeing a creature that was vastly beyond human comprehension.

If he sent a video or even a picture of the encounter to Martial Online's forums, it would cause wide-range panic.

He was certain that none of the players would want to come to Dark Waters after witnessing that!

The creatures lurking in the depths were truly fascinating and terrifying.
