Chapter 293 The Sea Kingdom's Counterattack
"This"

"How did he manage to support an entire island?"

Even without witnessing firsthand the awe-inspiring sight of a hundred-meter-tall super wave crushing everything and the ocean currents flowing around it, the fact that such a large island was floating in the air, visible to the naked eye even with a reconnaissance aircraft, has prompted many leaders of various countries to ask questions.

one person,

No, how could an extraordinary being hold up an island with their bare hands?

How can the structure of an island be guaranteed to prevent it from collapsing, given the massive mass pressing down on it?
"Never mind those things,"

In the Tokyo operations conference room, Director Takeya calmly adjusted his non-prescription glasses.

"The strength analysis report on 'Mount Suzuka' will be summarized by professional physicists later."

Although countless physicists have suffered heavy losses in the face of supernatural forces, everything else, except for those things that are interfered with by supernatural forces, still follows the laws of physics. Rather, it is more accurate to say that supernatural forces also follow certain rules, only they do not appear to be classical mechanics.

"In short, the young lord of the Sea Kingdom has been resurrected and returned."

"Given Suzukayama's protective nature"

Next,
It's bound to be a major battle!
Sure enough, the Ōtakemaru on the screen, who was holding up 'Suzuka Mountain', had already made a move.

On the sea,

"The Nine-Tailed Fox's forces want to seize the 'Yasakani no Magatama'?"

With one hand supporting Suzuka Mountain and the other resting on the hilt of his sword at his waist, Ōtakemaru let out a soft hum after hearing Uminari's 'report'.

“Suzuka Mountain has countless treasures, but these treasures all belong to Suzuka Mountain—we can give them away to others.”

"Trying to steal it is suicide!"

Clang,

After saying that, he drew the strangely shaped long sword from his waist.

It is not a traditional Japanese katana, but a strange weapon with two blades, straight like a calamus leaf, and decorated with two rows of magatama like sharp teeth.

"All people of the Sea Kingdom, follow me on this expedition!"

"Target: Nine-Tails!"

After saying that, Ōtakemaru did not linger and carried Suzuka Mt. forward in mid-air.

"Yes," X3
The roar of the sea transformed into a howling wind, soaring straight into the sky;
The clouds in the sky began to rotate around Mount Suzuka, clearly brewing a devastating super typhoon.

The sea general named 'Kyujira' waved his hand, and the sea surged, with 'Atakebune' made of seawater bursting out of the waves.

These boats are fifty meters long and ten meters wide, with a huge, ferocious demon face at the bow. Extra-long oars, like wings, extend from both sides of the hull, and it is unknown what the purpose of these oars is. In any case, everyone's eyes were gleaming as they looked at these "Atakebune" boats made of seawater, floating a dozen meters above the sea.

"Followers, hop aboard!"

Without wasting words, Kyukira leaped onto the leading ghost ship.

One by one, the 'Sea Kingdom', who were seven parts fish and three parts human, emerged from the sea; they leaped onto the 'Atakebune' and began to stand on the deck like sailors, preparing for battle.

These 'Sea Kingdom' creatures are experimental products created by someone using marine life. Unlike the 'Sea Kings' which are developed to be gigantic, they are developed in the direction of 'humans': coupled with their not-so-low intelligence, they are not bad as soldiers.

Simply put, they are a group of 'spirit beasts' that look somewhat like humans.

Orochimaru's research on Samehada resulted in very few of his creations resembling humans.
"Ruf, we..."

"let's go!"

Since the Sea Kingdom is going to war with the Nine-Tailed Fox forces, they naturally cannot stand idly by: at least for now, the Sea Kingdom has been relatively 'friendly' towards humans.

As for the Nine-Tailed Fox faction, almost everyone present had a blood feud with them.

Thump,

With a push of the foot,
Luffy was the first to leap towards an 'Atakebune'.

"What about the ship?"

"Just leave it here, no one will dare to touch it anyway."

Having dispelled the girl's worries, Zorro, with two sticks tucked into his waistband, leaped into the air and jumped toward Luffy's boat.

"Two brutes,"

The blond man in the suit, who was smoking a cigarette, squatted down.

"Beautiful lady, may I have the honor of giving you a ride?"

"Thank you for your help, Sanji."

The girl sat directly in the blond man's lap. Although she had also consumed a supernatural pearl, her combat power was at the bottom of the ship. What combat power did she, a ship's navigator, need?

brush,

As she was lifted into the air by the blond man in the suit, shouts came from below:

"Wait for me!"

The long-nosed boy, hugging the bathtub, looked at the height of the advancing 'Atakebune' and then considered his own strength.

"Little King, cough, Your Excellency King of the Near Seas, could you please help me—"

In the fish tank he was holding, the ribbonfish swimming around rolled its eyes in a human-like manner.

splash,

The ribbonfish leaped out of the fish tank, its body growing longer as soon as it was exposed to the wind.

When he landed on the deck, he had already transformed into a 'giant beast' several meters tall.

With a sudden movement, the extraordinary fish, known as the 'King of the Near Sea,' lowered its head, bit the long-nosed boy who was hugging the fish tank, and violently shook its head.

Leave you!

"Aaaaaahhhhh~~~" Amid the long-nosed boy's screams, the ribbonfish coiled its body and made a 'charging up' motion.

Bang!
Like a spring, the 'King of the Near Sea' shot up and leaped toward the ship in the air: with a splash, it disappeared into the warship made of seawater, then swam to the deck, its body rapidly shrinking as it leaped up, and finally landed with a thud in the fish tank held by the long-nosed boy who was lying on the deck with his butt sticking out.

Following Luffy's campaigns, the Lord of the Coast has also grown much stronger.

When he has nothing to do, he shrinks himself back to his former size, otherwise the 'ground effect vehicle' wouldn't be able to carry him.

"Hahahaha~~"

"Men, follow me!"

The three-meter-tall Teach squatted down slightly.

With a 'bang', it shot into the sky like a cannonball.

Despite his large and bulky body, his speed was comparable to that of those superhumans who took the agility route.

Many people thought he had only made his fortune through his 'copying' ability, but his captain's cabin was filled with all sorts of training equipment used by superhumans; when there was no battle and no need to give orders, the man named Teach would be sweating profusely in the captain's cabin.

Opportunity always favors the prepared.

"Using water as a bridge—"

Among the extraordinary individuals belonging to the 'Teach Pirate Crew',

Someone pointed, and the water in the sea surged skyward, forming a water bridge that connected to the 'Atakebune' chosen by their captain.

Dozens of extraordinary individuals stepped across the water bridge, went upstream, and leaped onto the boat where their leader was.

"Let's go too!"

"To fight for Lady Kani-hime, there is nothing better!"

"To rebuild the glory of our maritime nation is our inescapable duty!"

Seeing this, the other extraordinary individuals also displayed their supernatural abilities and leaped onto the ship. With Ootakemaru, who was holding up the island, and 'Sea Roar', the battle ahead was truly going smoothly! If they didn't show their loyalty now, when would they?

"Keep up, hurry up!"

"Organize the nearby fleets—"

Pirate crews, adventure groups, or private armies naturally boarded ships without hesitation to serve the maritime nation.

However, the navies of various countries certainly could not simply follow the maritime nation to the battlefield: they had to consult with the governments in the rear before making any allocations. The superhumans chased after the 'spaceships' that had already flown some distance away, trying to find a way to board them and fight.

The remaining ordinary people were not idle either; they transmitted orders to the whole world via radio waves.

A large fleet was converging on this sea area, along with thousands of various fighter jets, bombers, and reconnaissance aircraft.
If we can use the power of the 'Sea Kingdom' to eliminate—no, as long as we can severely damage the Nine-Tailed Fox's forces—many countries around the world can breathe a sigh of relief.

No one likes a force that kills humans at will: and this force is so powerful that one day they might just get bored and start destroying the world.

"The Maritime Kingdom sets out on an expedition,"

"Yu, tell me—who won and who lost?"

At her home in Adachi Ward, Nao, sitting next to Yu, adjusted her round-framed glasses as she watched the battlefield via live stream.

"It's hard to say,"

On the other side, Qiong Mei, holding a tablet, leaned on Yu's shoulder, while Yu touched his chin.

"On paper, the Nine-Tailed Fox forces have six demon-level powerhouses and tens of millions of biyokai and synthetic beasts, which is quite formidable."

Blood Hakama, Toneri, Sea Serpent, False Dizziness, Paper Dance, Ai Ling. During this period, Takahashi Ai Ling's strength has stabilized at the Demon level; as for that Paper Dance, who knows what kind of magical artifact she will pull out, it is perfectly fine to treat her as a Demon level.

"The Sea Kingdom has two Dragon-level experts, two Ghost-level experts, and a considerable number of 'Sea Kingdom members'."

In theory, the Sea Kingdom has the upper hand, since a Dragon-level being has a significant advantage over a Demon-level being. Of course, not every Dragon-level being is like Abe no Seimei. No matter how you look at it, the Dragon-level being from Suzuka Mountain in the Sea Kingdom cannot compare to the "strongest Onmyoji in history."

Even so, it is still a Dragon-level.

Haiming can generate a Category 18 typhoon, which is beyond human observation: this is not to say that his ability is limited to this, but rather that the highest typhoon can only reach Category 18.

The newly resurrected Ōtakemaru, wielding 'Suzuka Mountain' and personally donning his armor, is naturally a force to be reckoned with.

It's hard to pinpoint the exact location; he could simply throw the island he's holding out and cause a devastating disaster!

"but--"

As Sora and Nao listened attentively, Yu suddenly changed the subject.

"Don't forget the Nine-Tails' greatest advantage."

The biggest advantage?

What advantage?
The two beautiful girls seemed to be thinking about something at first, and then suddenly realized what was going on.

"Resurrection!" x2
"That's right,"

Nine-Tailed Fox Force

It refers to the nine tails of Tamamo-no-Mae.

To revive these 'tails', all that's needed is massive slaughter.

It's very simple. At least for the Nine-Tailed Fox forces that have grown up, hundreds of millions of people are their 'sacrifices'.

"The Nine-Tailed Fox forces have been entrenched in the Iberian Peninsula for quite some time. Given the amount of bloodshed they have caused, theoretically, it would be no problem for them to revive even more tails."

The reason it wasn't resurrected immediately,
It's just a way to summon the tail to counter a powerful enemy when we encounter one!
In any case, the 'biyo' under Blood Hakama's command is enough for killing.

"In other words, this time we will encounter—"

Qiong Mei looked at the tablet in her hand.
"A fifth tail?"
