The Ultimate Evolution

"My excellent Prince, we will seize the rat’s tail after rounding this cape! Afterwards…...there’s only three of them, my kids will be sufficient to rip them asunder! There is no need to sully your hands."

Prince Stalo’s lofty physique towered at the s.h.i.+p’s bow. His white locks gently fluttered under the setting sun.

For some unknown reason, he could feel an unexplainable gloominess and fret in his heart. At this moment, as past scenes rebroadcasted through his eyes, he suddenly felt that perhaps, he had miscalculated.

Because under the crus.h.i.+ng pressure of Glory Party, that Seaman remained unabashed and even erected a middle finger....….

Reef had blatantly demonstrated his ident.i.ty as a Growth-hunter...and even that Mogensha who was most aware of the specifics of Glory Party, had seemingly slapped his rifle b.u.t.t in defiance!

Yet the strangest part was…..his own magnificent Reserve-duty Brigadier General special ability, had unexpected been negated!!

An ominous premonition welled up in Prince Stalo’s heart!

This premonition surfaced abruptly and with harsh severity. It was like a lightning bolt that had struck his consciousness in a flas.h.!.+ Even his breathing turned sluggis.h.!.+

A sensation of having his heart tightly pinched by a ma.s.sive hand was transmitting throughout his whole body!

Stalo breathed in forcefully.

In this instance, his surroundings suddenly lost all frequency. The only clarity that was left, was his heartbeat.

Releasing a blazing breath, he felt as though there he was heading straight for a transparent rampart. His breath bounced back from the wall and against his face, spreading a numbing itch towards him.

"Shucks!!! How can there be something that could threaten my life in this place??"

This was a warning sign, an unprecedentedly intense warning sign received by his perceptive sense!

With a frantic call, Prince Stalo raised both his arms up high!

Instantly, an azure blue ring of frost extended out from both his feet, stretching towards his surroundings in a flash. The temperature of the Caribbean sea and even the seawater started condensing with frost.

This phenomenon encompa.s.sed tens of square metres around Prince Stalo. ‘First Halo: Beckoning of the Extreme North’!

Within a second, Prince Stalo, with his white locks fluttering about, raised his palm up front. Ahead, a thick translucent icy rampart was raised.

Stalo then pointed towards that Ice rampart. Instantly, seven entire 5-6 metres high solid ice ramparts were rapidly raised over the seawater ahead; st.u.r.dily blocking the s.h.i.+p’s bow!

By this point, Douglas had come to his senses and asked in shock.

"Prince, what are you doing? This will affect the speed of the s.h.i.+p..."

Before he could finish, the sun rays s.h.i.+ning past the precipitous cliff bend of that cape were abruptly blocked.

Instead, an insanely colossal shadow was cast onto them.

A shadow that could hide the sky and cover the earth. Just looking at the shadow itself could release waves of boundless majesty. It was practically like a mountain range that was pressing against them.

Glittering with metallic brilliance, the Dingyuan that had utterly s.h.i.+elded the penetrating sun rays away, as it abruptly swung around that cape; bluntly pressing in with unfathomable impetuous.

Although the two s.h.i.+ps were separated by a distance of several dozens of metres, the Dingyuan’s bow shadow had already engulfed

the entire Ghost s.h.i.+p!

It was as though it was trying to squeeze out the ghost out of the Ghost s.h.i.+p!!

Bear this in mind, the Ghost s.h.i.+p was a comparatively smaller s.h.i.+p amongst 3-masted s.h.i.+ps, while the Dingyuan was supposedly the gypsy Jiejie’s flags.h.i.+p!

It was designed according to a 7-masted grand s.h.i.+p, but barely 5 masts could only be erected due to the sparsity of the s.h.i.+p’s material! Nevertheless, the frame of the s.h.i.+p could be spoken in the same category as small 7-masted s.h.i.+ps. It was an amplified 5-masted wars.h.i.+p!!!

When placing both s.h.i.+ps together, the masts of Ghost s.h.i.+p had only scarcely overshot the Dingyuan’s hull....

Even though Prince Stalo had deployed 8 Ice ramparts in preparation, and though the ice ramparts of 6 metres height and 2 metres thick couldn’t be considered puny....in the face of the booming bow of the Dingyuan, they were utterly decimated like light sketches.

The 2-metre thick ice ramparts were like faulty strokes of the seawater. Not only did it fail to obstruct the Dingyuan, it clamorously shattered into a random scatter of crystal ice shards as the Dingyuan struck through.

Those sluggish decaying undead of the Ghost s.h.i.+p couldn’t dodge in time and even failed to notice those rapidly scattering ice shards had pierced into their limbs and head.

Presently, Douglas’s eyes were wide open and his jaw dropped with disbelief. That cigarette jammed between his lips dropped to the ground.

"The s.h.i.+t…...what kind of demonic s.h.i.+p is that? Even the Ghost s.h.i.+p’s capabilities are futile…."

His thoughts ceased at that moment because the bow of the Dingyuan had already impolitely crushed in, directly compacting the Ghost s.h.i.+p’s bow into the sea along with Douglas!

Kacha! This collision instigated a soaring pillar of water!!

The hull of the Ghost s.h.i.+p continued issuing repet.i.tive heavy fractures and distortions, seemingly about to snap in any second.....its splintered wooden deck and sail masts toppled under the astronomical impact, sending crashes of splash up tens of metres in the sky!

All of a sudden, Sheyan’s laughter echoed throughout the battlefield.

"This is utter folly! Trying to battle against me within the freedom of the boundless Caribbean sea!!"

At this moment, both Prince Stalo and the subordinate he brought along simultaneously revolted!

Although entrapped in an absolute disadvantage, Prince Stalo still held utmost confidence in himself. He believed that as long as he could break his way into the s.h.i.+p’s deck, he could establish his position and turn defeat into victory!

Prince Stalo reached out his left hand, where a light icy ember was combusting over his palm. He then stepped into the frozen water, and with every trampling step, a tiny azure glacier would form and support his foot.

A metre of seawater before his path then condensed into a solid layer of ice, as Prince Stalo leisurely paced himself amidst the perilous situation of this s.h.i.+pwreck, striding straight towards the Dingyuan.

Behind him, a bridge of ice was left behind! Floating well atop the seawater!

As for Prince Stalo’s subordinate, he appeared to be a Reserve-duty Growth-hunter.

All of a sudden, his figure blurred like a phantom and vanished into the thin air. Simultaneously, he suddenly emerged from the Dingyuan’s hull!

Short distance teleportation!

It was actually an ability that defied the natural order – short distance teleportation!

The odachi* by his waist flashed out brilliantly as he thrust it into the body of the Dingyuan. Evidently, the solidity of the Dingyuan had surpa.s.sed his expectations, as sparks dispersed.

(TL:*An odachi is a type of j.a.panese sword)

Nevertheless, he borrowed the impact of his odachi striking the s.h.i.+p’s hull to propel himself up onto the deck. Instead, an imposing s.h.i.+eld br.i.m.m.i.n.g with Egyptian flavour suddenly surfaced before his eyes.

Reef!!

Reef, who held a dark-gold grade s.h.i.+eld!

Reef, who was now an official Growth-hunter!

Yet spinning midair, was a Reserve-duty Growth-hunter; one resembling an a.s.sa.s.sin!

Right now, he was up against a superior MT, whose status, profession, and current position vastly exceeded his! No doubt, Reef completely dealt an absolute suppression onto this a.s.sa.s.sin. Without even fighting the battle, one could already predict its outcome.

Despite that, this a.s.sa.s.sin’s aim was merely to win some casting time for Prince Stalo!

Meanwhile, the Ghost s.h.i.+p had been utterly submerged into the water by the grand Dingyuan, smas.h.i.+ng out parting waves towards all sides like a giant wall.

Yet when those giant waves were about to engulf the white-haired Prince Stalo, it was forcefully condensed into a majestic ice wall.

At this moment, Prince Stalo howled fanatically and squeezed the combusting ice ember in his palm. As his white locks drifted up, one could observe the seawater behind him rocketing into the sky like a tremendous python, before it congealed into a wriggling glacic python spanning dozens of metres in length. The glacic python then speared towards the Dingyuan’s deck!

But right this second, Mogensha opened fire.

DA! DA! DA! Gunfire rumbling accompanied scorching streaks of bullets, as they rammed against the ice wall protecting Stalo’s front.

Instead, Prince Stalo exposed a smirk because he was aware of Mogensha’s battle powers. As long as his defense wasn’t broken within 5 seconds, the eruption of his glacic python would definitely win him ample time! Of which, he will use to leave a deep-seated lesson on these fellas!

Indeed, though Mogensha’s remaining bullets were carrying flames, they failed to penetrate through the ice ramparts protecting Prince Stalo.

Yet at this moment, Prince Stalo noticed that though Seaman strolled out to the s.h.i.+p’s bow, he appeared completely idle.

On the contrary, that Seaman blew him a pa.s.sionate kiss!

Beside Seaman, a sudden black man was controlling a primitive and ancient looking machinery, as he proceeded to aim towards here.

Indeed, Nanuke and his ‘Greenland Lethal weapon’!

A scalp numbing sensation instantly surged through Prince Stalo. Through the abstruse hole of that primitive machinery, he had glimpsed a sliver of deathly pale whiteness!

The colour and l.u.s.tre of that pale whiteness was a.n.a.logous to an utterly fleshless rib.

"What the shucks is that?! My ability is ready, but should I abandon it to dodge that?"

At the instance of Prince Stalo’s hesitation, Nanuke pressed the trigger!

No matter how mighty Prince Stalo was, he definitely didn’t possess the technicalities of an agile long-range combatant. After his sliver of hesitation, he realized an incredibly savage curved whale tusk was whizzing towards him in mid-air; in the form of a white beaming streak.

Nevertheless, Prince Stalo was still an exceptionally formidable individual. Even at this moment, he expelled a breath of biting cold air, which congealed into a protruding ice s.h.i.+eld; attempting to block that incredibly savage whale tusk.
