Chapter 695: We Watched the Fireworks!

After hearing Kuzan’s words, Ryuunosuke gave a slight nod.

"Brother Kuzan, tell me something."

"If they were really planning an ambush, then who exactly were they trying to ambush?"

Ryuunosuke asked directly.

Kuzan froze for a moment after hearing that.

First of all, the Navy could be ruled out immediately.

It was not that Kuzan lacked confidence, but the three of them had already fled in such a miserable state. How could they possibly still be worth ambushing?

Then there was only one remaining possibility.

The ambush had been prepared for Ryuunosuke and the Dragon Hunter Pirates.

But how could those people have known they would run into the Dragon Hunter Pirates while escaping?

The two sides had not made contact beforehand. They had only happened to encounter each other on the sea.

If this really was an ambush, then the other side must have had a very clear grasp of the Dragon Hunter Pirates’ whereabouts.

But with the Eternal Ark around, how could it possibly be that easy for someone to locate them?

Any surveillance, any energy fluctuation, any attempt at sensing them would be detected by the Eternal Ark immediately.

Now that Ryuunosuke had asked that question, it meant he clearly had no knowledge of any such situation himself.

Under those circumstances, Kuzan found himself unable to answer.

"Let’s go."

"If they’re really waiting for me, then I’ll go see what they’re trying to do."

"And if this wasn’t aimed at me, then I’ll still choose to aim at them."

Ryuunosuke said with a smile.

After hearing that, Kuzan nodded.

Then the Eternal Ark changed direction and sped off once more.

"Captain Ryuunosuke, just how many of these monsters that may be divine artifacts are there?"

"And from what you said earlier, if traces of them have already appeared on the Red Line, then isn’t it very possible that we may encounter them elsewhere too?"

Sakazuki asked with a frown.

If that was really the case, then perhaps they would still have a chance to play some role later.

Otherwise, if the only enemy they had to face was that man in black, then the help they could offer would be limited.

"Those monsters?"

"If it really is a divine artifact, then the truth is you may have already come into contact with those monsters."

"That eerie gray mist is most likely the monster itself."

"But forget that for now. We’ll know when we get there."

Ryuunosuke gazed out at the sea and spoke calmly.

Yet at this moment, his mood was anything but calm.

Because if divine artifacts truly existed outside the Red Line, then operations across the sea were carrying a hidden danger far greater than expected.

If those things were not dealt with quickly enough, some serious problems would inevitably arise.

As the Eternal Ark cut through the waves at high speed, Ryuunosuke also glanced at the route on the map.

Now, the direction they were heading in was actually Morbig Island, Adam’s island.

Could it be that this divine artifact was connected to Adam?

Of course, that was only Ryuunosuke’s own speculation for now.

As for the truth, it was still too early to say.

Very soon, a ship appeared directly ahead of the Dragon Hunter Pirates.

"Captain, we will make contact with the ship ahead in three minutes."

"The scan is complete. It is an Evictor ship."

"And the person aboard is none other than Atostana."

Gaino appeared on Ryuunosuke’s shoulder and quickly reported.

"Atostana?"

"This guy... Gaino, are they already within firing range?"

Ryuunosuke asked.

"Within range?"

"Captain, who are you looking down on?"

"Even if he were standing on the moon, I could still blow him apart with one precise shot!"

"Should I fire?"

"I’m already itching to try."

Gaino said excitedly.

What was there to hesitate about?

"These are members of the Evictors. They’re the enemy."

"Just blast them."

Ryuunosuke laughed and cursed.

"Understood!"

"Full power!"

Gaino clenched his tiny fist and pointed toward the large ship ahead.

Then the Eternal Ark’s propulsion system instantly ceased moving, while countless terrifying cannon barrels emerged from all over the ship.

"What is this thing?"

Because the Eternal Ark had been advancing at incredible speed, its sudden stop caused Sakazuki and the others to stagger.

Then they saw the menacing artillery array and felt the aura of death coming from it.

"This is the Dragon Hunter Pirates’ ship."

"So, how about watching some fireworks?"

Ryuunosuke walked over to the three of them with a smile.

"Fireworks..."

Before Sakazuki could continue wondering, an earthshaking roar erupted.

The Dragon Hunter Pirates had already witnessed the Eternal Ark’s destructive power before, and they knew exactly what that deafening roar meant.

So the moment Ryuunosuke gave the order to fire, everyone had already covered their ears.

The terrifying shockwave struck the enemy ship almost instantly.

Immediately after that, countless annihilation cannons poured relentless fire on a single point.

Five minutes later, the ship on the sea had vanished completely.

The massive artillery barrels slowly retracted.

"Gray mist!"

At that very moment, strands of gray mist began to rise from the smoke and debris left behind.

"Captain Ryuunosuke, it’s that fog!"

The moment Sakazuki saw the gray mist that had caused them so much trouble, he spoke immediately.

"So it really is this thing?"

"It looks like this really does have something to do with Adam..."

"In that case, let me try something."

"Kuzan, could you help me out?"

Ryuunosuke asked softly as he leaped down from the ship and landed on the sea.

"Understood."

"Honestly, I still haven’t fully recovered..."

"Ice Age!"

Kuzan muttered a rare complaint, then immediately unleashed Ice Age.

In the next moment, the entire sea froze over.

At that point, Ryuunosuke stepped onto the ice and charged straight into the gray mist.

"Zero Degree Line: Azure Sky!"

Ryuunosuke slashed out with the Pact of the Underworld in hand, and the surrounding gray mist was torn apart the instant it came into contact with the blade.

Then the slash broke through the gray mist’s defense and struck the man in black.

Boom!

With a violent explosion, the surrounding scene finally became clear.

"Ryuunosuke?"

"The captain of the Dragon Hunter Pirates?"

The man in black walked out step by step.

Just like before, the attack had not caused any visible damage to him.

Ryuunosuke had not been holding back at all, even if it had only been a test strike.

Yet the man before him looked completely unharmed.

"So you’re not a divine artifact..."

A trace of disappointment appeared in Ryuunosuke’s eyes as he looked at the man in black.

At the same time, he also felt somewhat relieved.

As long as the opponent was not a divine artifact, then the threat level should at least be lower.

"A creation of the gods..."

"Those mindless things are not worthy of being mentioned in the same breath as me."

The man in black spoke coldly.

"Captain Ryuunosuke, if possible, could I trouble you with dying here?"

Buzz!

The moment the man in black finished speaking, an AT Field instantly spread out and sealed off the surrounding area.

"An AT Field?"

"So you really were waiting for me?"

"Still, I’m curious. Who exactly are you?" 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

Ryuunosuke asked with an amused expression.

Ryuunosuke himself could also release an AT Field. It was merely a special kind of barrier used to isolate a battlefield.

Of course, anyone with sufficient strength could also tear it apart by force.

Ryuunosuke possessed that ability.

But right now, he simply wanted to see what exactly the man in black intended to do.

And more importantly, he wanted to find out which side this person belonged to.

As for Atostana, who was watching from some distance away, he was probably not on equal footing with the man before him.

If anything, he was most likely of a lower rank.
