"What did you say? How could the Kings of the Deep Sea appear here?!"

Upon hearing this, Krieg's face drastically changed, and he quickly moved to inspect the situation.

However...

Boom!

The main ship, Dreadnought Saber, was also struck by the Kings of the Deep Sea. The massive vessel shook violently, tilting severely.

Krieg braced himself with his legs, forcefully stabilizing his stance.

But the officers and crew behind him couldn't withstand it and rolled around the deck like marbles.

In just a few seconds, the ten large pirate ships were targeted by several Kings of the Deep Sea emerging from the water.

These ferocious sea beasts, living in the deep sea domain with blood-red eyes, seemed to be lured by a deadly attraction, frenziedly tearing at the pirate ships.

Some pirates who fell into the sea were swallowed whole before they could struggle.

In primal fear, the pirates screamed and fled in panic.

In an instant, the formidable pirate fleet plunged into endless chaos.

"Everyone, calm the hell down! Turn all cannons and guns, drive these beasts back into the sea!" Krieg roared furiously.

Although he knew the appearance of these Kings of the Deep Sea was undoubtedly related to the recent heavy rain, he wished he could tear Zyhark and his companions apart right then.

But clearly, the immediate priority was to stabilize the chaos within the fleet!

Gunsmoke filled the air as the pirate fleet faced a frenzied assault from the deep-sea behemoths.

When the rainwater carrying the scent of life dissipated, the Kings of the Deep Sea, battered by the cannon fire, slowly regained their senses.

The sea surface was not their optimal environment, driven by their instinct to survive, they turned and dived back into the deep sea, causing splashes.

Although the pirates successfully drove away the frenzied sea beasts, Krieg's fleet paid a heavy price.

All ten pirate ships were severely damaged, riddled with gaping wounds, with seawater pouring in through the breaches.

The Dreadnought Saber, in particular, suffered extensive damage, with two-thirds of the ship submerged.

The fleet's size was halved, with only about a thousand exhausted pirates remaining.

"All able-bodied men, move the treasure on board to a safe place!" Krieg stood on a broken mast, his eyes filled with furious bloodshot.

Gazing at the devastated fleet, he clenched his teeth and gripped his massive war spear tightly.

It was only now that he regretted attacking this damned sea restaurant for mere tens of millions in treasure.

The methods at their disposal were even more bizarre than reported in the news!

"Before that, you might want to think about yourself, Krieg."

The sound of rushing water and a calm voice came from ahead.

Seeing the timing right, Zyhark, wielding a long sword, left the Endless Dream and approached the wrecked ship where Krieg stood.

"Do you really think you can defeat me like this? I am Admiral Krieg!!"

Krieg, clad in golden armor, his eyes blazing with fury, charged at Zyhark without a word, launching a fierce attack.

The massive war spear, weighing nearly a ton, whipped up a fierce wind.

As the admiral who assembled a vast fleet, Krieg's physical strength undoubtedly dwarfed Captain Kuro of the Black Cat Pirate Crew!

However, such strength seemed somewhat insufficient in the face of absolute speed.

Zyhark didn't even need to use Observation Haki; he simply stepped aside, dodging Krieg's spear thrust.

Boom! T

he moment the spear touched the deck, the special explosive hidden at its tip detonated, causing a violent explosion.

Within the smoke, Zyhark moved swiftly, circling behind Krieg at lightning speed.

His sharp sword traced a beautiful arc in the air, aiming for Krieg's neck exposed outside the golden armor.

Krieg, not lacking in combat sense, raised his golden shield to block the attack as he sensed danger.

Clang!

The blade struck the sturdy shield, sparking fire.

"With just that strength, you dream of taking my head?" Krieg sneered, feeling the opponent's feeble force.

Due to the widespread application of holy water, which weakened her divinity, Aqua's blessings on Zyhark had little effect.

"Die!" Krieg pushed Zyhark and his sword away with brute force, then turned his spear, stabbing towards Zyhark's heart.

Zyhark swiftly retreated, effortlessly avoiding the spear tip.

Predicting this, Krieg dropped his other golden shield, smashing it downward towards Zyhark, who was momentarily airborne.

Zyhark, expressionless, stepped on Krieg's golden armor, using the momentum to leap away.

Bang!

The spike-covered shield missed, smashing the deck to pieces.

The battle paused as the wind blew, with the two fighters assessing each other's weaknesses, looking for a chance to strike a fatal blow.

"Divine Fist!" At that moment, from another pirate ship a hundred meters away, came a fierce cry.

Aqua, with her fists ablaze, engaged in combat with one of Krieg's officers—known as the Iron Wall Baloo, who boasted he had never bled in battle.

Seeing this, Zyhark was taken aback.

What was this foolish goddess up to, leaving the Endless Dream unguarded?!

It seemed as if Aqua heard his internal monologue, turning her head with an all-knowing look: Humph, don't think I'm unaware of your plan to hoard all the pirates' bounties for yourself!

Zyhark: "..."

It's not about the bounty; I'm genuinely terrified, big sister!

If not for the need to deal with Krieg, he would've thrown this troublemaker into the sea to feed the fish!

Luckily, all of Krieg's ships were severely damaged, making another large-scale bombardment unlikely.

Should any special situation arise, the remaining King would likely pilot the Endless Dream away from the area.

With this in mind, he refocused entirely on Krieg charging towards him.

The intense battle between the two resumed.

As Zyhark feared, King on the Endless Dream now faced an unprecedented crisis.

In the opposite direction, another pirate ship bearing Krieg's flag appeared!

Gin, staying close to King, quickly recognized the officer at the ship's bow.

It was the chief strategist of the pirate crew, the Tactician, known for his cunning plans.

The Tactician's elite pirate ship, originally lying in ambush along the planned escape route for the sea restaurant, had sped over to support upon spotting the unfavorable battle situation through his spyglass.

Naturally, they encountered King, who stood with arms crossed on the Endless Dream.
