"!!!"
When Spandine heard Burari say that, he flew into a towering rage.
"You idiot! I told you to look for traces of the Sky Pirates! What are you watching fish for?"
Burari shook his head awkwardly and said, "No... I mean, these fish are really strange. They look like they're fleeing for their lives, like they've gone mad..."
"Fleeing for their lives..."
At that moment, the Marines on the warship, who had been watching the sea all along, seemed to notice that something was wrong as well, and they began shouting loudly.
"What's happening to the sea?"
"It looks like something's coming this way..."
"What the hell is it...?"
Now everyone truly realized something was off. They hurried to the side of the ship, and with one look, surprise appeared on all their faces.
Off the port side of the warship, on the distant sea, the surface of the water visibly churned without stop, bubbling as though the seawater had been boiled.
Only on closer look could one discover that they were actually fish—one after another, of different sizes and species, yet all of them swimming across the surface at high speed as if fleeing for their lives, escaping toward the distance.
The scale of it was enormous. There were all kinds of marine creatures, as if every life-form beneath the sea was carrying out a great migration.
Vice Admiral Tsuru was the first to react, and she asked Huo Shanshao beside her, "Are there any islands in that direction?"
Huo Shanshao was stunned at first, but then he reacted, thought for a moment, and said, "In that direction..."
At that moment, Burari had already shouted excitedly, "I see it... I see it... the pirate ship of the Sky Pirates..."
"That island is the destroyed kingdom of ice: Reykjavik..."
