Sailing at Sea: The Breath of the Day at the Start

Page 406

However, it is precisely because he appears and disappears without a trace and often creates clones that Ron finds it difficult to guess what he really is.

Tornado finally woke up. Her heart was the most seriously injured part, so she had been resting in bed recently. These past few days, she was finally able to get out of bed, so she went for a long walk outside without stopping.

"I'm already tired, why are you still walking!" Fubuki was exhausted by her. Even though she wasn't injured, she was tired, but Tatsumaki didn't seem tired at all, and didn't even pant.

Tornado had been lying in bed for several days and was itching to get back to work; she really wanted to practice her skills.

Tornado thought for a moment, then said to Fubuki, "Why don't you practice with me? I'm so tired of lying around these past few days, my bones feel like they're going to fall apart!"

"Huh? Me?" Fubuki looked incredulous; she certainly didn't want to.

But before Fubuki could finish speaking, Tatsumaki attacked, throwing punches so fast that Fubuki had nowhere to hide.

In the end, Fubuki could only desperately dodge, then stumbled and fell backward. Fortunately, Ron reacted quickly and pulled Fubuki back, so she landed right in his arms.

This made Fubuki extremely happy, and she immediately forgot about what had just happened.

Tornado, puzzled, casually asked, "What brings you here?"

Ron shook off the snowflakes, signaling her to get emotional, and then let her stand up properly on her own.

Ron then said, "Recently, we've heard rumors about the Great Serpent King, and it seems he's injured quite a few ordinary people. But this is just hearsay; no one has actually seen him yet. It's all just folklore."

57. The Great Serpent's Trail

Since devouring Garou, Orochi has never appeared again. Even among the Monster Alliance, no one has seen Orochi.

The fact that Orochi has actually shown up this time means that he is out of danger and will most likely return to the Monster Alliance.

"The Great Serpent King devoured the Hungry Wolf, so his power must have increased a lot. I must have a match with him and see who is stronger!" Tornado's bad habit kicked in again.

Ron was too embarrassed to say it aloud, and could only think to himself: "You're in this state, and you still want to fight." But in the end, he didn't dare to say it, and instead said, "You should rest well. I'll take Fubuki and we'll go check out the Monster Gang's place, just in case they have any tricks up their sleeves."

After saying that, she grabbed Fubuki and left, unable to get out. As they walked away, Fubuki made a face at Tatsumaki, indicating that she should stay put.

Tornado watched as the two left, and she stood there, somewhat at a loss.

Ron wanted to find out what evil schemes those weirdos might still be plotting, especially against Wang Da She. He knew that Wang Da She couldn't just disappear so easily, so he wanted to confirm it.

Fubuki was a little happy to see that Ron had called her, and asked smugly, "Why did you ask me to come with you?"

She asked the question with a hint of shyness, the kind of embarrassment a girl has.

However, Ron didn't think much of it and said directly, "I saw you up ahead, and I was afraid you'd get killed by Tornado, so I called you along the way!"

So it was just a side trip! Fubuki's smiling face immediately turned cold; she didn't want to listen to Ron anymore.

He then said, "Hmph, I'll go take a look over there. You see for yourself."

After saying that, he ran off to check if there were any other passages to the lair of these strange people.

Ron was still unaware of what he had done wrong, so he ignored Fubuki and went off to search for her on his own.

Seeing that Ron hadn't come looking for her, Fubuki, a little sullen, decided to go find him herself.

This place looks rather desolate, with not much to see; it seems more like it's been abandoned.

Fubuki didn't know how she got here; she just walked here in a huff, and it definitely looked like there were people here.

This time, Fubuki didn't dare to act like before. She immediately perked up and became more vigilant.

She slowly followed the only path downhill.

Ron didn't notice anything at this point; he only realized that the Snowman was gone and no longer nearby.

He wasn't too worried for the time being, just assuming she had probably gone a little too far.

But as time passed, Ron still couldn't see Fubuki.

Fubuki somehow ended up outside a room, where there was someone inside.

Curiosity compelled her to slowly raise her head and peer inside.

She saw that there was indeed a strange person inside, but strangely, this strange person looked so familiar, yet she didn't seem to have seen him before.

Fubuki couldn't figure it out either, and she didn't dare to act rashly on her own, so retreating was the best course of action.

Just then, Fubuki, of all people, made a commotion.

The person inside immediately shouted, "Who's there!"

Fubuki closed her eyes, feeling like she was about to commit suicide. Suddenly, someone behind her reached out and covered her mouth.

Fubuki initially thought it was some strange person and was about to raise her hand to retaliate when she realized it was Ron. Only then did she feel relieved.

Ron put his hand to his mouth and whispered, "Shh!"

Ron, who was in the room, also saw it. He immediately recognized the strange figure as the vanished Orochi and the devoured Garou. And if he wasn't mistaken, I was, in appearance, Orochi, but also being controlled by Orochi.

The hungry wolf wasn't willingly being devoured; it's likely because he had already planned to control Orochi in this way.

Before Ron could think, he quickly pulled Fubuki away to hide. Just seconds after they hid, someone came out of the room.

Luckily Ron arrived early, otherwise they would have been discovered.

Soon, Luo and his companion left the area. Now that they knew where they were going, they weren't afraid anymore.

"Ron, thank goodness you arrived in time, otherwise I would have been dead again!" Fubuki said, her cheeks puffed out in fear.

Ron remained unmoved by her soft-spoken nature, coldly replying, "You know you're weak? Then why do you keep running around like this?"

Fubuki lowered her head silently, not daring to utter another sound. This time, she knew she was wrong.

The Monster Alliance isn't exactly quiet either. Garou wasn't so much devoured as he was more accurately described as parasitizing Orochi.

In this way, he can make good use of the Great Serpent's power, have a place to take refuge, and even make himself stronger.

However, while his method was good, it was not easy to hide, and anyone with slightly higher combat strength could easily detect the anomaly.

When Ron returned, he told them everything. They didn't fully understand the situation yet, so they could only be extra cautious.

Early in the morning, before anyone was even up, someone hurriedly shouted that something had happened to Ron.

Ron was startled awake and quickly got up to ask what was going on.

"What's going on? You all look so flustered!" Ron asked, puzzled.

The man, panting, said, "Wang Dashe is over there with some weirdos, claiming they want to challenge the heroes. They said if we don't come out, they'll go and destroy the people on the street! That's why I rushed over to tell you!"

Ron frowned upon hearing this. These people were really impatient; they hadn't even been gone a few days before they came knocking on his door.

"Fubuki, go and call everyone to go see what other nonsense those weirdos are up to!" Ron ordered.

Fubuki immediately went to inform everyone. When Tatsumaki heard that these weirdos were causing trouble again, she remembered how she had failed.

He was so angry that he immediately followed Ron to the scene.

"Damn it, this time I'm going to show you all what I'm capable of!" Tornado said as he walked.

Ron glanced at Tornado, who was following beside him. He was afraid that Tornado would cause trouble first, given her arrogant and fiery temper.

So Ron reminded him, "Hey, hey, stop it, don't keep calling me 'Master' all the time!"

"What? Am I not a master? What's wrong with me?" Tornado bombarded Ron with a series of questions.

Ron chose to keep quiet at this point because he didn't want to reason with women; they always had a point.

57. Provocation, parasite!

When they arrived at the scene, a crowd had already gathered, many of whom were there to watch the spectacle.

Ron had already sent Fubuki to inform the others, so Bang and Atomic Samurai arrived at that moment.

Wang Da She stood in the middle of the arena, and this time Ron didn't see anything different about Wang Da She, nor did he see that there was a hungry wolf inside him.

The first thing Wang Dashe saw was Ron, and he said arrogantly, "Hmph, you must be very surprised to see me here. Did you think I was dead? Heh, it's not that easy for you to kill me."

"Are you Wang Dashe?" Ron asked uncertainly, just to test what was going on with him.

"No matter who I am, I will never let you get away with this!" Wang Dashe roared. He hadn't forgotten how Ron had beaten him up that day.

Hearing his arrogant tone, Tornado could no longer contain herself and said, "You inhuman creatures are really troublesome. I don't know where you get the nerve to act like this!"

Tornado's words were undoubtedly an insult and an insult to them, but this time, the Great Serpent King was unusual and was not provoked.

"Speak, what is your purpose in coming here today?" Bang, who had been watching from the side, had no choice but to ask.

Orochi scanned all the heroes and then said, "I challenge you all! I'll show you the power of monsters. So, who wants to go first? Hmm?"

Tornado, of course, wouldn't give way, so just as she was about to rush forward, Ron and Bang simultaneously made a blocking motion.

Ron glanced at Bang; they were on the same page. Tornado was too competitive, so it was better to let Bang handle it first.

Bang then said, "I'll go. We don't know the current situation of the Great Serpent King. I'll go and test the waters first. If anything changes, you can come to my aid."

Although Tornado wanted to go up, she also felt that Bang made a good point and that she should stay calm and not act impulsively, so she didn't rush to go up.

Bang stepped forward and said defiantly, "I'm more than enough to deal with you!"

Hearing Bang say this, Orochi was very dissatisfied. After all, he was the leader of the Monster Gang, and now a not-so-great person was saying such things to him.

With a wave of his hand, he sent a beam of light towards Bang. Even before the light reached Bang, he could already feel the immense pressure.

Bang immediately spread his arms to catch the immense force. The moment he caught it, he felt as if his whole body was being crushed, and his internal organs were being squeezed.

Finally, unable to withstand the blow, he was sent flying three meters away with a bang.
