The Sea Serpent's high-speed charge was only the beginning. The four Sea Kings behind it burst forth one after another, barely slower than the Sea Serpent, while the Sea Frog was even faster.
The five Sea Kings whipped up waves that filled the sky, scattering the clouds as they charged at the pursuing Pirate Ships with the force to topple cities and fortresses. The distance of over a thousand meters vanished in an instant.
Some Pirate Crews with slower reactions or insufficient strength were instantly crushed by the terrifying impact. More than a dozen Pirate Ships broke apart at once, reduced to fragments. The Pirates aboard were either killed outright by the collision or fell dazed into the sea, their fates unknown.
Only a few stronger Pirate Ships capable of resisting Giant Sea Kings escaped disaster. The captain of the Blood Axe Pirates, for example, removed the bloodstained axe from his back, leaped into the air, and swung it fiercely. The axe blade he unleashed forcibly stopped the charging Sea King.
Not only did it stop it, but it also split open the Giant Sea King's shell, leaving behind a wound more than ten meters long. However, such an injury was nothing to a Sea King of that immense size.
That single charge wiped out more than half of the twenty-odd pirate ships pursuing them, making many lose the will to continue. The burly man aboard the Blood Axe pirate ship, for instance, immediately ordered a retreat after blocking one Sea King's attack.
However, since they had already given chase, escaping would not be so easy. Every Sea King was an expert swimmer, making them difficult to shake off, and there were people nearby interfering as well...
Amid the snowflakes filling the sky, Animal Path Pain rode a black eagle
