Ocean Lords: Start as a Fisherman

As the sea of ​​faith, which had filled the starry sky, instantly receded...
Cao Ge and Di Anxuan then moved back.

At this point, the enormous "polluted fish" had vanished without a trace.

Only Su Wang remained standing above the pure white sky.

Upon seeing this, Cao Ge immediately teleported to Su Wang's side and asked him.

"Boss, what about the polluted fish? Has it been dealt with?!"

Su Wang was in a mysterious state at this moment.

Reflecting on the feeling before that final blow.

The soul that had already reached the highest level seemed to have crossed over to another level.

However, as the filth and blood disappeared, this state also faded away.

Hearing Cao Ge's call, Su Wang also came back to his senses, nodded and chuckled.

"It's resolved; all potential problems should be solved."

To get a definite answer

Cao Ge's somewhat ethereal body suddenly leaped up, a wide grin spreading across his face, and he pounced on Su Wang.

"Ha! I knew you could do it, boss!"

"Now that the root cause of pollution has been solved, there is no more danger in this world."

"When we get back, we must gather all the fishermen in the alliance for a celebratory banquet. These past few months have put a lot of pressure on me, Lao Cao."

Di Anxuan, who had also instantly arrived, smiled with relief.

This time, Su Wang did not push Cao Ge away from the embrace, allowing him to share in the joy.

He was pushed away when the lightning pulse effect lasted less than 20 seconds.

"It's time to relax a bit. You can host this celebration banquet, Lao Cao."

Cao Ge was taken aback upon hearing this.

"That won't do. Boss, you are the biggest contributor and the leader of the alliance."

"It still has to be you, boss, who organizes this. I, Lao Cao, am too ashamed to take the limelight."

Su Wang merely smiled wryly and did not reply.

Cao Ge, who appears carefree but is actually quite thoughtful, saw this...
He immediately realized what was happening and the smile on his face vanished.

"Boss, what happened?"

Su Wang did not answer Cao Ge's question directly, but changed the subject.

"Old Cao, my crew members have been settled at Fool's Wharf."

When you get back, please tell them I'm going to travel to a very far place and may not be back for a long time.

Su Wang then remembered something, conjured something in his hand, and tossed it to Cao Ge.

"Oh, by the way, please give this to Mirei for me, and tell her to take good care of herself."

Cao Ge caught the thrown object, his expression becoming even more uneasy.

"Boss, aren't you going back?"

Di Anxuan, who was standing to the side, also cast a questioning and uneasy glance at her.

She also sensed something was off about Su Wang's words.

Su Wang shook his head with a wry smile again.

With only a few seconds left to maintain the ability, there was no way to explain it clearly in a short time.

Or rather, he didn't know what price he would have to pay when his ability ended.

The power he unleashed with the lightning pulse earlier was terrifying, far beyond what he could normally unleash.

The price to be paid is unimaginable!

It's even highly possible that once the ability ends, he will simply disappear.

Seeing that there were only 3 seconds left, Su Wang immediately gave instructions to Cao Ge and Di Anxuan.

"Go and integrate into the world below, and you will become the new ruler of the world. Go now."

After saying this, the lightning pulse ability's effect lasted for the last second.

Su Wang's consciousness also ceased at that moment.

...

At Fool's Wharf,

The sea breeze ruffled Mireille's skirt.

Since disembarking from the Heartless,
She stayed on the edge of the harbor the whole time, without moving an inch.

This process has lasted for a whole day.

Night is falling.

Many residents coming and going in the harbor cast curious glances at the girl standing there, whose clothes seemed out of place.

At this time, Tia, who had already returned to the family's residence for a visit, came to the port again.

Tia walked to Mirei's side and whispered.

"Mirey, it's getting dark. Come with me to the Horned Eel Clan's base to wait for the captain."

Tia had originally waited in the same spot for several hours after disembarking.

However, seeing that the Heart of the Dead had not yet returned, he took Menata back to the family's residence.

When Mireille heard Tia's invitation, she gently shook her head.

"No, I'm going to wait here for Captain to come back."

"He promised Mireille that he would come soon."

Mireille has no "home" at Fool's Wharf.

Only her room on the Lost Heart, where the captain was, was her home.

Since becoming a crew member of the Heart of the Dead, she has been sleeping inside the Heart of the Dead.

Of all the creatures that spent the longest time aboard the Heart of the Dead, it was Mireille who truly deserved the title.

Tia looked helpless upon hearing this.

Looking up at the sky, they also hoped that the warship, which could blot out the sky, would reappear.

Just then, two figures suddenly appeared at the port.

It appeared just a few steps away from Mire and Tia.

Mire didn't know one of them very well, but she was quite familiar with the other.

A look of joy flashed in Mi Lei's eyes, but after waiting for several seconds and not seeing the person she really wanted to see, her joy faded considerably. Mi Lei took two steps forward to Cao Ge and asked him in a charmingly coquettish tone.

"Brother Cao, where is Captain Cao?"

Why didn't I come back with you?

When Cao Ge heard the question from the person in front of him, a barely perceptible shadow of darkness flashed in his eyes.

"Mirey, your captain brother has gone to a faraway place to take care of some things and may not be back for a while."

The last vestiges of joy in Mire's eyes vanished, replaced by a faint mist.

Cao Ge was at a loss for what to do.

After merging the world's authority, he and Di Anxuan rushed back to Fool's Wharf.

There were three of them when they went, but only he and Di Anxuan came back.

After saying those last words, Su Wang's body suddenly disintegrated and disappeared.

Even after he and Di Anxuan finished merging the World Authority, they were unable to find any trace of Su Wang's existence using the power of the World Authority.

Seeing the disappointed look on Mi Lei's face, Cao Ge was caught off guard and didn't know how to deal with it.

Fortunately, Di Anxuan was there and immediately stepped forward to pat Mi Lei's head.

"Your name is Mireille, right?"

"Your brother Su Wang left something for us to bring to you, so you won't worry."

After saying that, he gave Cao Ge a meaningful look.

Cao Ge then realized what was happening and quickly took out something.

It was a small, reddish-brown fruit.

A common red eggplant found at the dock.

Cao Ge was also unclear why Su Wang had specifically instructed him to bring the red eggplant to Mi Lei.

But right now, this red eggplant is the only thing that can sense Su Wang's presence.

It seems that the power of the Supreme Being was used to keep the red tomato fruit in a state of time standstill.

When Mirei saw the red eggplant she had left in the room now in Cao Ge's hand, the mist in her eyes instantly turned into tears and fell.

"Waaah... Liar... Captain, you big liar..."

"You promised... you wouldn't lie to me."

Upon seeing the red eggplant, Mireille had a vague sense of what was going on.

The attempt to comfort her only made Mirei cry more.

Even Di Anxuan was helpless at this point.

He could only tenderly pull Mi Lei into his arms and gently comfort her.

"It's okay, I believe he will come back."

...

Five years have passed in the blink of an eye.

Since the last polluted area of ​​the sea disappeared completely that day, the strange fish that remained underwater also vanished without a trace.

From then on, the nights were no longer shrouded in red, but were restored to the bright moonlight.

Without the threat of pollution, this boundless sea has been restored to prosperity and peace in just two years.

On the sea, one can often see fleets of ships traveling back and forth to conduct trade.

Near the docks, fishing boats were busy at work.

During these five years, the Pisces Alliance eventually merged into the Purification Alliance, ushering in the first year of Purification.

At each dock stands three temples, known as the Three Great Temples of Purification, which enshrine the three great saints of purification.

All the fleets that went out to sea for trade at the docks, and even some fishermen who went fishing near the shore, would choose to go to the three temples to pray.

Praying for a safe voyage, or perhaps a bountiful catch.

This prayer is not in vain; rather, it will receive the blessings of two great saints and a tangible response.

However, at one of the fishing temples, no blessings were given after prayers, and as a result, very few people came to pray at this temple each day.

However, the Clean World Alliance has absolute orders issued to every dock.

Make sure to organize a weekly prayer session for the residents of this fishing sanctuary that receives no blessings in return.

And at Fool's Wharf in the capital city,

Among the other docks, the fishing sanctuary at Menchoklo is the sanctuary with the largest number of daily worshippers.

some of,
There were two figures who had come to pray every day for the past five years.

Inside the temple at this moment, two beautiful figures with their eyes closed were praying devoutly.

It was Tia, who became the new Queen of the Clean World Alliance, and Mirei.

Five years have passed, and Miley, who was just a little girl, has grown into a graceful young woman, shedding her childish appearance.

Tia has lost some of her youthful charm, and instead gained a more mature and sophisticated air that comes with age.

Mireille, in prayer, holds a bright red fruit in her hands.

Five years have passed, and the red eggplant looks just as freshly picked.

“Brother Su Wang…it’s been 5 years. You promised Mi Lei you’d be back soon.”

"Mirey isn't angry anymore, she just wants you back."

Mirei kept muttering to herself.

For the past five years, she has come to the temple every day to speak and pray.

Just because Uncle Cao said,
Brother Su Wang has reached the point where his faith is immortal, and so is he.

But even he couldn't find the reason why it disappeared.

After learning this, Mireille prayed continuously for five years.

Tia also conveyed the command that all docks must regularly pray for the fishing temple.

All of this was done to give Su Wang a chance to reappear.

After offering a sincere prayer, the two prepared to get up and leave as usual.

However, just as the two turned to walk toward the temple gate, a voice suddenly rang out from behind them.

"Sorry... I'm a little late."

...
