We agreed to set sail, so you'd become the ruler of the deep sea?

Chapter 15 He Has Arrived! (Please recommend! Please add to your favorites!)
On the shimmering sea.

Several pirates mustered all their strength, wielding their oars to propel the small boat forward.

Although this power source is primitive, it is reliable and can actually achieve a faster speed for such a small wooden boat.

The screams of the other pirates behind them spurred them to row even faster.

One of the pirates spotted a strange shadow in the water and couldn't help but ask, "First mate, what... what is that shadow?"

"I have no idea……"

The look of terror still lingered on Walter's face as he murmured, "But at least I'm certain that it wasn't a living human being!"

"Shut up!"

Blood Wolf Hansen's fierce gaze swept over the pirates, silencing them and preventing them from uttering another word.

After suppressing the crowd, Hansen looked at the silhouette of the ship not far ahead.

After the intense chase, the distance between the Blood Wolf and the Black Swan had already been shortened considerably.

But when he saw the view on the deck, Hansen felt something was strange.

That ship was rather too empty.

There were hardly any sailors in sight; the only thing that could be found was a small figure in front of the rudder.

How could one person drive such a large two-masted sailing ship forward?

Or have the others already jumped ship and escaped?
Hansen shook his head, suppressing his unease.

In any case, give him a few more minutes and he'll be able to catch up with the Black Swan!
As long as he has a boat, he still has the potential to turn the tables!

As long as we can get to that ship...

Click!

The crisp sound of breaking wood interrupted Hansen's thoughts.

He looked down and saw that a thick, dark iron hook had pierced through the fragile bottom of the boat, revealing a rusty, pointed hook.

Beneath the sea surface, eerie black shadows appear and disappear, like the Grim Reaper making a visit.

Walter's face was filled with despair as he hissed, "He's here! He's caught up!"

"We can't escape...we can't escape..."

Walter's previous encounter in the sea undoubtedly left a deep psychological scar, to the point that he could not muster any fighting spirit and his mind was teetering on the brink of collapse.

"Shut up!"

Hansen slapped Walter across the face, causing his cheek to swell up and a tooth to be knocked out.

Faced with a mysterious and unknown enemy, Hansen was naturally somewhat panicked.

But based on his experience at sea, he knew that it was precisely in times like these that one should not panic.

A fierce glint flashed in Hansen's eyes. He pulled a jet-black bead from his pocket, then grabbed Walter's jaw and shoved the bead into his mouth.

This is a secret medicine that Hansen obtained by chance. After taking it, one can gain a huge boost to strength, and it can even allow ordinary people to reach the level of a first-tier Mystic.

But the price it came at was also incredibly high.

"Captain! You..."

Walter's eyes widened, his expression growing increasingly terrified.

"Whatever it is, stop it!"

Hansen coldly gave the final order, then kicked Walter into the sea.

"No...ahem!"

Walter choked on seawater several times and struggled to swim back to the boat.

But the next moment, something unexpected happened!

Walter's skin suddenly turned bright red, like a prawn that had been roasted, with fine blood vessels seeping into the seawater from his skin.

Immediately afterwards, smooth scales emerged from his skin, and gill-like organs appeared on his cheeks.

At the same time, his bones cracked and popped, and his whole body swelled up.

Walter's eyes were bloodshot, and he let out a roar like a sea monster.

Under the influence of the secret medicine, he had completely lost his mind, leaving only a violent desire for destruction.

"Ok?"

Below the small boat, Shane also noticed the strange person who had fallen into the water.

Before he could think any further, the other party had already transformed into a shadow and rushed towards him.

By this time, Walter's entire body was covered in scales, and his sea creature features became increasingly obvious.

It seemed to have undergone some kind of atavistic transformation, with all its attributes skyrocketing and gaining the ability to move freely in the sea. Its crimson eyes locked onto Xia En, who was closest to it, like a lithe shark.

Xia En was startled, but his actions were swift and decisive. He pulled out the iron hook from the bottom of the boat, lifted it up, and swept it forward.

boom!
With a muffled thud, the undercurrent surged, and the two bodies were thrown backward.

[Ship Soul Power - 3!]

Xia En licked his lips.

The opponent is not weak, but still within our capabilities.

He knew that he was now entangled with this monster.

To stop that small boat from getting close to the Black Swan, the only way is to take it down first!
With this in mind, Xia En unleashed astonishing speed, like a ghost, and launched a surprise attack.

……

……

On the small boat that is heading far away.

Seeing the two dark figures entangled in the sea, Blood Wolf Hansen breathed a slight sigh of relief.

Hansen himself didn't care whether Walter lived or died, but as long as Walter could buy him some time, then he would die a worthy death.

But soon, a crimson stain spread across the seawater behind them.

Hansen was somewhat surprised and uncertain.

Whose blood is this?

Has the outcome already been decided?
Before he could think any further, a scaly corpse surfaced.

On that atavistic, alienated face, faint traces of fear and pain remained.

Walter is dead?
Why so fast?
Hansen's heart skipped a beat. He had considered the possibility that Walter might die, but he hadn't expected him to die so quickly!
That's almost the strength of a first-tier Mystic!

Just how powerful are the monsters in the sea?

Boom!
An ominous, muffled sound, like the tolling of a death knell, came again from beneath the small boat.

The pirates' hair stood on end; immense fear gripped their hearts like a giant hand.

"I don't want to die, I don't want to die!"

In a panic, some people jumped into the sea and fled in the direction away from the small boat.

This time, the eerie shadow did not drag it into the sea, but instead focused on chiseling at the bottom of the ship.

Boom!Boom!Boom!
More and more cracks appeared in the wooden planks below, and seawater gradually seeped into the hull.

The remaining pirates could no longer bear the terror of death approaching step by step, and one by one they jumped ship to escape.

Blood Wolf Hansen hardened his heart, swallowed a secret medicine, and jumped into the sea without hesitation, then swam towards the Black Swan not far away.

After taking the secret medicine, his senses became numb.

The sound of waves crashing, the pirates' cries, the biting cold, the pain of sharp blades cutting through the body in the seawater... all seemed to become distant and unattainable.

What kept Hansen swimming forward was only one obsession.

As long as I can get there...

After an unknown amount of time, Hansen gradually regained consciousness.

To his surprise, he found himself standing beside the Black Swan, his hands resting on the solid wooden planks.

"I... survived?"

A surge of ecstasy rose within Hansen.

It's a miracle that they survived under such circumstances!
He struggled to climb onto the deck, but when he looked up, he saw a young and handsome face.

That face was so young, so young that it didn't look like a captain's face, but more like a noble young man traveling abroad.

However, in the other party's hand was a dark, heavy iron hook.

In an instant, Blood Wolf Hansen understood many things and was filled with dread and shock.

"How is this possible? You, you..."

But at that moment, Xia En had already raised the iron hook high, his face filled with only cold killing intent.

Under the blood-red sunset, his shadow stretched very long.

"Do not……"

Hansen's eyes widened, his throat tightened, and fear surged through him: "Don't kill me! I'm Norman..."

laugh!
Blood splattered, and shadows engulfed his body like a tide.
