Background / History

Kraken was reborn in the deep sea after reaching the hundred-thousand-year level. Formerly known as Yuni, he discarded the fragmented, painful consciousness associated with his old identity and named himself after the abyssal monster of legend. His new gray-black gelatinous body felt at home in the cold, dark, high-pressure sea, though the declaration of his new name immediately drew down his delayed heavenly tribulation. 91

Following the tribulation, Kraken emerged in an unstable octopus-like form with a bone-white scorpion tail. His memories of his prior body were fragmented, but he retained traces of Wither power, poison, and an affinity for the deep sea. While fleeing Sea God Island patrols, he encountered the young Deep Sea Demon Whale Moyuan, whose familiar aura stirred uncertain memories. 96 97

Kraken was gravely injured while protecting Moyuan from Sacred Pillar forces. Tieshan initially mistook him for an enemy and charged him, but reconsidered after seeing Kraken indicate the broken sword in his own flank and the knight he had killed to protect Moyuan. Tieshan brought both injured beasts to safety, beginning their alliance. 105 106

After recovering, Kraken developed the hidden nest into a base of operations. He healed members of the Deep Sea Demon Whale clan, constructed a Wither-based surveillance network around the lair, and guided the mortally wounded Demon Whale Empress toward safety. He later used the harvested essence of Sea Horse Douluo and Sea Maiden Douluo to stabilize and revive her. 113 118 119 133

To gather energy without attracting Sea God Island, Kraken adopted a human disguise and began operating on the continent. He hunted soul masters, collected intelligence, traded soul bones, and sought targets whose energy could sustain the Demon Empress. 135 136 140 141 161

Over time, Kraken built a broad deep-sea coalition and infiltrated Sea God Island through the Coral, Sea Swallow, and Sea Turtle lineages. He cultivated a system of marked soul bones, manipulated Sacred Pillar families, and prepared long-term plans to weaken Sea God Island from within. 193 194 251 287 288

Kraken expanded his forces beyond simple alliances into a highly organized deep-sea power structure. His waters contain a breeding and processing complex overseen by the two-hundred-thousand-year Diamond Crayfish and Giant Claw Crab, while his methods and resources are used to cultivate large numbers of hundred-thousand-year soul beasts. 334 396

After becoming known as the Blue King, Kraken maintained a secret treasure-filled island and continued dealings with both Star Dou Forest and the Extreme North. Di Tian personally sought his aid in protecting Bi Ji, while Kraken's alliance with the Ice Empress developed through the exchange of cultivation methods, energy resources, and military cooperation. 198 200 203 300 370

Following his three-hundred-thousand-year tribulation, Kraken exploited the apparent weakness of his wounded body to draw six Title Douluo into an ambush. He concealed the battlefield in black fog and used the confusion among the attackers—including the betrayal of Sea Horse Douluo and Sea Ghost Douluo—to turn their assault against them. 371 373

Kraken subsequently accelerated his subversion of Sea God Island by directing the destruction of the Mermaid Clan and the capture of ice-attributed mermaids. He supplied Huben with one thousand elite soul beasts, helped arrange the poisoned welcoming banquet for the Mermaid Clan, and personally faced the surviving patriarch Eve after the clan's elders were killed. 374 381 394

Appearance

Kraken's true form is a Blue-Ringed Octopus with ice-blue eyes, eight tentacles, and a distinctive scorpion-tailed appendage. His appearance has changed repeatedly since his rebirth, from gray-black gelatinous matter to a fully developed octopus body. 91 96 179 371

• Gray-black or dark-blue body adapted to abyssal waters. 91 96
• Ice-blue eyes, often described as cold, rational, and emotionless. 96 135
• Eight tentacles in his mature true form. 179 280
• Bone-white or gray-black scorpion tail, later usable as a humanoid left arm. 96 135 207
• Blue ring patterns in miniature octopus form. 370
• Can assume the appearance of a cold-looking human youth in gray robes, with his scorpion tail disguised as a mutated martial soul. 135
• Can reduce himself to a miniature Blue-Ringed Octopus roughly the size of a millstone while retaining his characteristic gray coloration and glowing blue rings. 370

Personality

Kraken is patient, calculating, and highly adaptable. He prefers concealment, misinformation, and carefully prepared traps to direct confrontation, whether by disguising himself as terrain for days or by building elaborate networks of agents and controlled assets. 118 144 193 287

He treats power, corpses, and living beings with a utilitarian detachment, often viewing opponents as energy, fuel, materials, or resources. This coldness extends to his methods: he kills robbers without remorse, drains enemies to recover his strength, and engineers disasters to destabilize Sea God Island. 140 161 207 253

Despite this predatory nature, Kraken repeatedly accepts danger to protect Moyuan, Tieshan, and the Demon Whale Empress. He saves Moyuan while near collapse, revives the Empress using enemy essence, and takes her attack directly to prevent the rift's exposure. 105 106 133 179

Kraken's ruthlessness is coupled with a strong sense of responsibility for operations he has initiated. When he realizes that he has neglected the planned assault on the Mermaid Clan, he immediately changes course to support Huben rather than abandon the operation. 381
