85: Sea power!

The vast sea was now a bloody red.

It was the blood of other sea beasts, almost dyeing this entire sea area crimson.

"Commander, Golden Tiger King has not been found yet!"

"Not found!"

"We’ve searched everywhere…"

As one report after another came back, the Naval Commander’s expression grew increasingly solemn.

He never expected that under such intense firepower, Golden Tiger King not only survived but also vanished without a trace.

After a moment of silence, the Naval Commander barked, "Keep searching!"

"Yes, sir!"

Just as humans were frantically searching, Xia Fan had already dived to the seabed, with the extraterrestrial meteorite iron right before his eyes.

No one would have thought that this Golden Tiger King would dare to return here.

Following his previous method, Xia Fan unhesitatingly dripped a drop of his blood onto the extraterrestrial meteorite iron. After completing the recognition process, he would simply collect it.

"My King, save me!"

Suddenly, Ta Mu’s panicked cry for help reached Xia Fan’s ears.

He immediately swam upwards in the direction of the cry, and soon a line of enormous creatures appeared in his sight.

They were ten orcas, several times larger than the giant sea turtle from before, now forming an indestructible wall, blocking Ta Mu’s retreat and preventing him from leaving.

Seeing this, Xia Fan understood, "No wonder Ta Mu asked for help directly. Even if they stood still and let him eat them, it would still take a lot of effort."

Seeing the encirclement still shrinking, Xia Fan didn't say a word and directly revealed his form, appearing beside Ta Mu.

The latter finally breathed a sigh of relief, "My King, if you had come any later, I might have been eaten!"

"But, with so many powerful fierce beasts, can we win?"

"Don't talk yet."

Xia Fan growled, signaling Ta Mu to shut up.

At the same time, a strange voice came from one of the orcas, full of scorn and anger, "Land creatures, how dare you covet the treasures of my sea!"

"This is not where you belong!"

"Since you have broken the rules between the land and sea races, then stay!"

Xia Fan then realized that the voice came from the surface of the water in front of the orca, and the speaker was clearly a woman.

But to be precise, the other party was a Mermaid Nami!

"Mermaid Nami?"

Seeing this Mermaid Nami, Xia Fan was also very surprised.

In his mind, some basic information about her instantly surfaced with his past life memories.

In Xia Fan’s past life memories, she was an existence that ranked extremely high among King-level creatures.

Although Mermaid Nami was a King-level fierce beast, her destructive power against humans was no less than that of an Emperor-level fierce beast, because she could control tsunamis!

It could be said that coastal areas were Mermaid Nami’s home ground.

Xia Fan still remembered that in his previous life, Mermaid Nami had once, by herself, unleashed a terrifying tsunami that directly submerged an entire coastal city, causing millions of casualties!

Thinking of this, Xia Fan already had the urge to retreat, "It's not advisable to clash with her head-on for now. Anyway, the extraterrestrial meteorite iron is already in hand, so there's no need to stay."

After a low growl at Ta Mu, he intended to retreat.

"Trying to leave?"

Seeing this, Mermaid Nami’s anger intensified.

She already harbored a strong dislike for fierce beasts or humans from outside the sea. Now, seeing Xia Fan not only take the meteorite iron that fell into the sea but also brazenly attempt to leave, she immediately became displeased, "Did I say you could leave?"

"Go! Stop them for me!"

Amidst Mermaid Nami’s strange and ethereal voice, the ten orcas immediately surrounded them excitedly, their cries filled with menace.

The atmosphere in the arena instantly became tense.

"Do you really think I'm afraid of you?"

In an instant, Xia Fan’s face showed killing intent.

He was unwilling to clash with Mermaid Nami, merely unwilling, which didn't mean he was afraid of her.

Now, seeing that Mermaid Nami was foolish enough to attack him first, he naturally wouldn't be polite.

Pfft—

Xia Fan struck an orca with a claw, moving incredibly fast. The latter’s massive body was instantly torn open by him, a huge wound gushing with blood.

Seeing this scene, Mermaid Nami’s pupils constricted, but now that the arrow was on the string, it had to be fired.

She once again let out a strange and ethereal voice, issuing orders to the other orcas, "Stop them at all costs!"

"Get lost!"

Xia Fan suddenly opened his mouth and spat out a piece of extraterrestrial meteorite iron.

Under his control, the extraterrestrial meteorite iron seemed to have no weight and hit wherever he aimed. A huge muffled thud immediately spread through the sea.

One by one, the orcas, though not killed by the impact of the extraterrestrial meteorite iron, were covered in wounds, and most of them lost their combat ability, unable to launch any more attacks.

"What a great opportunity!"

On the main battleship, the Naval Commander, observing the battle between the two fierce beast teams through his binoculars, was overjoyed, "Quick, change course and fire missiles at them, bombard them fiercely."

"Leave none alive!"

"Yes, sir!"

Whoosh—whoosh—whoosh—

A few seconds later, missiles, trailing long plumes of smoke, streaked towards Xia Fan and Mermaid Nami.

Although the human navy still didn't know who the fierce beasts fighting Golden Tiger King were, it no longer mattered.

The Naval Commander even excitedly fantasized, "As the saying goes, when the snipe and clam fight, the fisherman profits."

"Today, I will watch those two great fierce beasts fight to the death, and then I will be the fisherman, the biggest winner."

"Golden Tiger King, you are finally going to die, hahahaha…"

Boom!

Amidst the Naval Commander’s wild laughter, the missiles also exploded with a roar, their terrifying power causing the sea level where Xia Fan and Nami were located to briefly drop several meters.

When the surrounding explosions ceased, Mermaid Nami looked around and discovered that all ten orcas she had brought were gone.

Mermaid Nami was immediately enraged, and her strange and ethereal voice suddenly became continuous.

Whoosh—

In an instant, waves gathered together, almost visibly forming a tsunami that headed straight for the eastern coast.

A tsunami a hundred meters high; even the human fleet here would be unable to withstand it.

The powerful fleet, including the eastern coastal defenses, was instantly swept away, without even having time to react.

"You seem somewhat useful, so come with me!"

After seeing this scene, Xia Fan’s eyes lit up.

He stared at the huge tsunami, forcefully broke through to Mermaid Nami’s side, then effortlessly grabbed her and roared, "Ta Mu, let's go!"

Originally, Xia Fan didn't want to fight Nami because he was wary of the Dragon King behind her, who had gained the power of the stars and awakened the Dragon race bloodline.

However, since the Dragon King wasn't here, he really wasn't afraid of these little minions in the ocean!
