"Huh? What just happened?"

Not only Verni but all the surviving Great White Sharks of the Ultimate Dissectors hunting team were also confused by what just happened.

Seeing 3 purple tier predators appear on the battlefield, they were originally shocked, feeling despair that they were dead and gone for good. They didn't think wrong, going against such powerful purple tier predators was suicide itself.

This was verified when Sebastian ordered the all-out defense formation which they obeyed immediately. 

At this moment, every shark already activated a magic shield, and they all huddled together to make the defense compact, sturdy, and difficult to break into. What confused them were the words and reactions of the toad and Praying Mantis.

The sparkling fish was even weirder. Compared to all the predators on this battlefield, the fish was the undisputed fastest but it never attacked, not even once to take advantage of this godly speed.

As soon as it detected that the Praying Mantis that was going after it was obstructed, filled with joy and relief, it continued escaping.

It bypassed the formation of Great White Sharks, taking another direction to escape towards. Unfortunately for it, the old toad also recognized it, now the other 2 purple tier predators were after it.

The fish became anxious again.

Seeing everything that just transpired, Sebastian was quiet as his eyes flickered silently, his brain rapidly processing the information.

He was ready to engage in an even tighter battle but was stunned at the circumstances. It did not take him long to arrive at some deductions though, the only problem was that he didn't know if they were right.

Well, it was this uncertainty that made deductions interesting.

After his battle with the toad, he already concluded that this guy was stronger than both the Sperm Whale and Giant Squid that he went up against some time ago, including the Basking Shark that was just killed.

Also, the toad's reactions to seeing the Praying Mantis revealed a lot. They were old enemies, the Praying Mantis was stronger, but it didn't escape because of the fish who was now the focal point of attention.

Through all these observations, he deduced that the fish was the main point.

The praying mantis arrived in pursuit of the fish, the toad forgot its fear of the mantis and joined the chase just because of the fish also. Sebastian's eyes sparkled; this fish's value was unimaginably high.

After making all these deductions, Sebastian could not help but laugh inwardly. "Extreme bad luck is bad, but bad also contains good at times".

[You have activated skill: Triple Reverse Swim.]

[You have activated skill: Advanced Dash.]

Sebastian decided to join this hunt. 

He may not know the value of this fish, but joining the hunt did not mean immediate death so why not? He was someone who would not escape without even trying first.

Seeing the enormous shark that was rapidly swimming towards them, the Praying Mantis snorted disdainfully. "A shark that is trapped in a well, not knowing how big the world is".

Clearly, this guy had the same personality as Tosh, talkative. The only difference was the status, this mantis was a purple tier predator with arrogance and high prestige while Tosh was still an orange tier predator.

This fish hunt soon turned into a tripartite fish hunt.

Consumed by greed, the old toad's last jump was accompanied by a skill, toad jump. Through this, he was able to leap extremely high, propelling his body so far that he landed farther than the fish, stopping at its front.

Now, he was at the fish's front, while Sebastian and the praying mantis pursued from behind. But Sebastian and the praying mantis pursued from different sides, which formed the tripartite chase.

Like they communicated beforehand, all 3 pursuers attacked.

The old toad's deadly tongue lashed out again, straight at the sparkling fish with deadly speed, tyrannical force, and lethal accuracy.

Sebastian's body glowed with his green magic power as they concentrated mid-water to form 3 enormous sonic drills. These 3 sonic drills shot out consecutively with more force and speed than others.

The Praying Mantis's attack was even more bizarre. With his hunting team harboring a shadow domain magic shark, Sebastian already saw some displays but the mantis showed that he had only seen the tip of the iceberg.

Poof!

With a soft sound like that of gas coming from a fat troll's buŧŧ, the Praying Mantis rotated on the spot before disappearing, turning into whips of black gas again which was the same form that Sebastian attacked a few moments ago.

As soon as he turned into the black gas, his speed increased exponentially. Not only that, the black whips extended out from the main branch, forming what seemed like giant shadow spikes in the air.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

The giant shadow spikes accelerated, all shooting towards the fish with speed and force. The fish was in danger of death once again.

Even before the giant shadow spikes arrived, the old toad's deadly tongue arrived, lashing out like thorn-edged whips at the fish's sparkling body.

With loud bam sounds, the tongue hit, its sharp and sturdy edge digging into the fish's body to dig out chunks of flesh as the fish immediately opened its mouth soundlessly in pain while still perseveringly swimming forward.

Before it could recover, the giant shadow spikes arrived, ruthlessly impaling its sparkly body. Like this, the toad and mantis dealt damage from afar, rapidly chipping away the health points of the fish.

Sebastian threw sonic drills also but none of them hit the target not only due to the distance but because of the speed that they moved at.

Sebastian revealed a sharky bitter smile; this was revealing his shortcomings. He may be powerful, but compared to these old monster predators who's refined their skills for years, he was still relatively new.

He could deal damage from afar too with his sonic drill skill, but his relatively lower battle experience was glaringly shown at this moment.

What made him feel even more anxious at this moment was that the fish never retaliated. All it had was its faster speed, and the sturdy basic magic shield surrounding its body, it never attacked.

Sebastian observed this for another minute where the fish was already bloody from all the attacks before coming to a bold conclusion. 

For some strange reason, this fish could only escape, it never attacked, or more like it couldn't attack. For some weird reason, this fish had no single offensive skill when even a Blue Tang had.

Instantly, Sebastian changed his battle strategy. Compared to before, his mana points were higher now, and some skills that he could only use sparingly before could be used more casually now.

Boom!

Sebastian rapidly accelerated, turning into a streak of green light in the water as he instantly closed the distance to the fish before it could react.

Activating his crushing bite skill, he ruthlessly bit down at the fish's head.

Crunch!

Still some distance away, both the toad and the Praying Mantis were stunned on seeing this sight before feeling enraged. The toad could only thrash angrily and swim faster, but the praying mantis could do more.

It suddenly stopped its pursuit and hovered in one place, tightening its deadly forehands that were already in a prayer stance further. 

While doing this, its shadow in the water suddenly flickered before turning more corporeal. The next moment, the shadow elongated, extending so far that it collided with Sebastian's body before he could react.

[A skill has been used on you: Shadow Clone Displacement!]

Warp!

The next moment, to Sebastian's shock, the Praying Mantis disappeared from its previous position. In less than a fraction of a second, the mantis dug itself out of Sebastian's shadow.
