Ocean Master

When Verni heard the voice calling out to him, he didn't even need to look as he felt a wave of relief surge into his heart. He felt like crying but he could not, he recognized this voice, it was a voice belonging to his family member.

"Tungsten!" He called back wearily.

At this moment, amid the raging battle, despite being at the very forefront of the battle only behind Sebastian, the Lizard Lord and the Mystery Pryer Crocodile noticed the 5 newcomers immediately after they appeared.

These 5 newcomers were sharks, precisely Great White Sharks. They looked different because of the varying adaptations that they had on their body, but their essence as Great Whites could not still be overshadowed.

At their very front stood the powerful leading Great White who Verni called back at after recognizing his voice, Tungsten. 

This shark was different from the others, it towered at a size of 15 meters just like Sebastian. At its forehead, it had a sharp menacing horn-like adaptation that left it emitting demon vibes.

It had spikes at the sides of its body just like Sebastian. All these were minor features, the most glaring feature about it was its glowing pure white eyes like those of a blind anime old monster.

This was the second strongest Great White Shark in the shark family being led by the powerful Old Mak. And alongside Verni, they were the only official students of their leader.

Though he was not at the purple tier yet, he was a powerful powerhouse who was at the pinnacle of the Orange tier at level 20. It was because he hasn't found the perfect moment yet, that was why he was still at the Orange tier.

A few days ago, his fellow student who was his master's favorite, Verni went out with another group of family members for his curiosity expeditions.

After becoming of age, Old Mak said every shark has the freedom to live his or her own life but they must always remember to put the family first, so such curiosity expeditions were not prohibited.

Unfortunately, Verni and his group encountered a terrifying enemy. Teeth killed 3 Great Whites on the spot with all the others escaping. Not willing to give up the pursuit, Teeth decided to go after Verni.

As a shark that Old Mak saw as his favorite, Verni was able to keep himself alive while escaping for days. While this happened, the Great White family also detected the problem.

Without wasting time, Old Mak organized a team and assigned his other student, Tungsten to be the leader. And here they were after days of tracking.

At this moment, Tungsten's pure white eyes quickly turned sharp like daggers as he focused on the bleeding shark.

He was not alone on this, seeing their kin in such a bloody and half-death state, the 4 other Great Whites behind him revealed looks of bloodlust and anger.

Of course, Tungsten wanted to charge into the battlefield immediately and teach the offender a lesson but he recognized who the enemy was. He already heard of the terrifying Octumpedam from his master.

He felt shocked that this terrifying Octopus was injured by other sea creatures, but he didn't want to know how it happened. It didn't take him long before he came to a decision.

"You are all to cooperate with me, our mission is to rescue Verni and not to engage in the battle. Activate your magic shields and follow me". As a powerful shark, his intelligence was also up to par, even more than Verni's.

As soon as they heard his order, the Great White Sharks became obedient like primary school kids as they looked at Tungsten attentively in anticipation of the next orders from him.

"Now!"

Tungsten activated his magic shield, prompting a white magic shield to appear at his front as he charged into the raging battlefield towards the dying Great White Shark. The other sharks rapidly followed behind him.

They stacked their magic shields together, forming a combined shield that was far stronger than just 1+1+1+1+1.

Bam! Bam! 

They attacked but they had no intention to kill, using skills was just to clear up a path through the suffering sea creatures to get to their target at the fastest possible speed.

Unlike the others who were already exhausted from battle, they were still as fresh and vibrant as a new Buggati Bolide that just came out of the factory.

They were not powerful enough to confront the Octopus, but that was not their plan from the onset. They simply burst in with speed and started pushing every obstacle away with their speed. 

  At the front of the formation, Tungsten rushed forward, bombarding every obstacle away with his frightening brute power.

It only took them about a minute before they got to Verni's position but as soon as they got there, the terrifying predator noticed them.

While thrashing wildly in anger, killing the puny prey before him, Octumpedam was still looking for the shark who injured him. He didn't know how he was doing it, but this shark was so well hidden that he still couldn't find it.

Pushed by his growing frustration and anger, on seeing the new sharks, he immediately decided to vent on them. It instantly started directing the same special attention that he gave to Sebastian at them.

8 of its tentacles abandoned the other prey, then they all shot towards the 5 sharks who were trying to save their comrade.

Tungsten noticed it, but there was little that he could do as the 8 tentacles slammed into their combined shield, breaching it immediately.

Boom!

3 of the sharks suffered severe damage immediately, and at the last moment, Tungsten jumped in to take the damage, or else Verni would have died from the attack.

He didn't know why the Octopus was suddenly triggered, but he knew that the situation had already gone way too wrong. He roared an order at his companions after making another decision.

"Use the device!"

Without asking questions, 2 of the injured sharks immediately retreated as a device that looked like an old typewriter with a large circle at its middle suddenly appeared before the 2 sharks.

The other 2 sharks, including Tungsten, stood their ground not only to protect Verni but now to protect the 2 sharks also.

While taking refuge behind their companions, the 2 sharks went to work.

Bam! Bam!

The tentacles lashed out wildly and dangerously, giving the 3 sharks including Tungsten severe injuries in seconds but they still held their ground, holding to that sliver of hope which was the device.

Back on the main battlefield, the Mammoth Crocodiles and Draconic Lizards felt a rare moment of respite after the Octopus focused on the sharks but its effects in turning the tides of the battle were minimal.

Too many Lizards and Crocodiles already died to the frightening predator, the battle was now unsalvageable. 

And even though the Lizard Lord and the Mystery Pryer Crocodile finally started dealing damage to Octumpedam's main body after Sebastian's attack, they still suffered more and grew tired faster. 

They already lost hopes of winning, all they wanted to do now was hit and give the Octopus as much pain as possible before they died.

As the battle raged on, Tungsten and his group were already beaten to the same state that Verni was, bringing their combat power to the barest minimum.

"Are you not done?" Tungsten growled.

"..." The sharks didn't reply for a few seconds as they continued their operation but they soon stopped. "Done!"

Immediately after the word 'done' reverberated, the surrounding water space contracted. Before the astonished eyes of the other predators on the battlefield, a huge teleportation portal was opened.

Unlike the small-range teleportation skill that was used against Sebastian some time ago when he visited the city of eels, what this device erected was a long-range teleportation portal.

Bzzz!

The water space shook and vibrated like a volcano was erupting, making the water bubble fiercely amid sizzling sounds. In this environment, an enormous snout passed through the portal.

The next moment, the full body of the enormous Great White Shark was pushed through to the other side of the portal. It emerged intimidatingly.

This was a Great White Shark that towered at a size of over 20 meters, dwarfing both the dead alpha Crocodile and the Lizard Lord.

Its enormous body looked plain, but all its adaptations were hidden inside its body. Its eyes glowed a deep red, and its teeth looked as sharp as swords that were just created from a forge.

Sweeping the battlefield with its eyes, it immediately understood the situation as its eyes were left trained on the thrashing Octopus.

From afar, seeing this enormous Shark, the Lizard Lord felt memories surge back to him as he visibly shuddered. "Old Mak!"
