Book 8 Chapter 186 (2/2)
Moreover, the submarine-like s.h.i.+p would be extremely useful in future maritime battles.
As Woohyuk persistently tried to persuade him, Davy Jones sighed and nodded.
“I can’t disappoint Anne since she left me in charge of rewarding you. All right. I shall continue to captain this s.h.i.+p until all the Divine Thrones are filled.”
“Great decision. By the way, did you tame that Kraken?”
“No, the Sea G.o.d gave it to me. He told me to deal with bothersome beings like demons if they were to disturb my work.”
If so, there was no need for Woohyuk to train the mother Kraken.
As long as Davy Jones stayed in the sea, he could easily control it.
As the situation cleared up, Woohyuk looked straight ahead again.
During their conversation, the Abyssal s.h.i.+p was being sucked into a black whirlpool in the middle of the sea.
“Let's continue talking after we escape this. This s.h.i.+p can’t go underwater like the Nautilus.”
“Where is your destination? I will accompany you from below the sea.”
“The Isle of Chaos. It’s where Blackbeard and his men are based.”
No matter what, Woohyuk couldn’t let Edward Teach escape.
He had found out that Aleister was supporting Blackbeard from behind the scenes.
And maybe the Isle of Chaos was one of the places where the Clipport’s Fruit was being produced.
As he stared over the stormy storm, Woohyuk’s eyes gleamed.
***
The Dark Veiled Sea was extremely ferocious, worthy of its notoriety.
If they were on an ordinary s.h.i.+p, it would have been completely smashed and sunken on the seafloor already.
However, the Abyssal s.h.i.+p was a legendary pirate s.h.i.+p, st.u.r.dy enough that it could survive through harsh currents and waves.
Thanks to the Deep Sea Orb, they were able to avoid dangerous situations as well.
When they finally reached their destination, they saw pirate s.h.i.+ps moored in rows.
The flags flapping in the wind on the masts were that of Blackbeard’s pirate crew.
Woohyuk immediately gave orders and bombed them indiscriminately.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
Cannonb.a.l.l.s flew over the waters relentlessly, and torpedoes continued to advance beneath the sea.
As a result, the anch.o.r.ed pirate s.h.i.+ps were destroyed in an instant, and the lucky Blackbeard pirates who survived swam to the Isle of Chaos’ sh.o.r.es.
“Sa, save me!”
“Enemy attack!”
They wouldn’t even have dreamt that Woohyuk's party would come all the way here.
Triton appeared in front of the men begging for help.
Swoos.h.!.+ Crack!
When Triton stabbed the Frost Sword Ranghilt in the water, the sh.o.r.e began to freeze in no time.
As a result, the pirates were stuck within the ice and couldn't move.
“Ugh!”
”s.h.i.+t! This is ridiculous!”
While they struggled to survive, Woohyuk and his party landed on the ice.
“Blackbeard must have noticed our arrival by now, right? I wonder when he’ll come out.”
“Try provoking, Witch of Profanity. Isn't that your greatest skill?”
“… You’re too much. But was it okay to leave Roan behind on the s.h.i.+p?”
“He was tied to the mast with a golden rope loaded with mana. It would be impossible to escape on his own. Drake and Davy Jones are with him as well.”
The two infamous pirates couldn't leave their s.h.i.+ps because of the system's constraints.
Brynhild nodded at Woohyuk's explanation.
“That’s rea.s.suring. In any case, this island is full of ominous energy. What happened here in the past?”
Despite being a Valkyrie, Brynhild had no knowledge of the Erendia Kingdom.
Sieg also tilted his head in confusion.
“Brynhild, you weren’t aware of this place until now?”
”Yes. It feels somewhat familiar, but I certainly don't remember it.”
“It is probably because of the Sea G.o.d. He can erase the memories of all beings below him.”
While Valkyries would be exceptions to this since they were demiG.o.ds, Brynhild had lost her abilities and was exiled from the Heavenly World.
Therefore, it was not particularly strange even if she had no memories of the Erendia Kingdom.
Everyone admired Woohyuk's reasoning.
“You really are smart. Even I, a Valkyrie, didn't think about that.”
”That’s my lord. Maybe you’re the reincarnation of the Wise King Solomon?”
“Well, at least you’re worthy enough of your t.i.tle as Hero King. But you still have a long way to go to challenge the Demon G.o.d’s throne.”
Woohyuk shrugged and spoke again.
“Anyway, the possibility that the Sea G.o.d himself sunk the Erendia Kingdom is high. Do you know anything related to him, Triton?”
“… Unfortunately, nothing remains in my memory. It seems the Creator did something to me while I was confined in the Lost Temple.”
The quiet Triton shook his head with a dark expression.
However, he was a descendant of the Sea G.o.d, so he could potentially be useful in their current situation.
He could find clues that Drake hadn't found in the past.
“By the way, do the 72 Demon Kings know about this? The high-leveled demons might...”
“Maybe these events happened before they first arrived on the Eeth Continent.”
According to the Edda Chronicles, the demon world was originally not connected to the Eeth Continent within the system.
Therefore, the Demon Kings and Lilith were used to balance out the system, since the G.o.ds had total control over the continent.
It could also be that the Creator made the G.o.ds and demons fight each other in an attempt to stop them from aiming for his own position.
He must’ve given the Holy Grail and Lemegeton to the Wise King Solomon in an attempt to have humans join the fray as well.
As Woohyuk's group made speculations with each other, they heard laughter in the distance.
”Hahahahahahahaha! To think that you came all the way here! You people are truly fearless”
It was Blackbeard.
It was Edward Teach.
