"Killer Crab"—that was a piece of news Rear Admiral Yak had learned while chatting with the two of them.
Recently, a gigantic crab had appeared along the coast near Karate Island. After observation and testing, they discovered that it could disguise itself as a massive boulder by the shore and attack passersby and tourists nearby.
Fortunately, when the Killer Crab came ashore, it was high tide, and the only person on the coast was a Water Striking Flow dojo master training by using the waves crashing against the rocks.
After exchanging blows and realizing he was no match for it, the dojo master took a direct hit from the Killer Crab and used the force of its attack to fling himself onto the shore, narrowly escaping disaster.
Afterward, the dojo master informed the islanders about the giant crab on the coast. Several dojo masters from different schools joined forces, yet they were still driven back, with several of them injured.
Because of its vicious nature, formidable strength, and the injuries it inflicted upon the dojo masters, people called it the Killer Crab.
It was not as though no stronger dojo masters had wanted to kill the sea beast after hearing the news. However, it spent most of its time in the sea and only came ashore occasionally. After enough failed attempts, they had no choice but to give up. They could not stand around waiting forever; they still had students to teach.
With such a monster on the beach, panic spread for a time. No one dared approach the coast.
Quite a few residents had already asked the Marines to clear out the Killer Crab. After all, no one knew whether it might someday enter the town in search of "food."
His old friend Cher also wanted to take action.
