Chapter 132 - Supersonic Escape!

Both the Jellyfish and the enormous Sperm Whale were stunned by the sudden clever act of the shark. All the attention already turned to the jellyfish; nobody expected the shark to change targets at the last moment.

Clearly, both predators were fooled by this act as they could not react on time before this sneaky shark succeeded in stealing their prey in front of their eyes.

For the Jellyfish, she erupted in rage as her pink tentacles thrashed wildly in the water. She came to avenge the death of her children, and killing all 3 predators by her own tentacles was her way of avenging them.

Another predator killing one of her targets angered her, this was even more apparent when she knew the gains that she lost in losing such a target.

The skill points, the adaptation points, the joy of experiencing her prey's despair when the life was slowly snuffed out of it, they were all annoyingly gone!

Now filled with rage, the jellyfish got prepared to focus all her attention on the shark to finish it off as quickly as possible. 

Through her special adaptation senses, she already observed enough to confirm that this shark was not a purple tier predator yet, he just had a frighteningly effective offensive skill which made things a lot easier for her. 

But before she could move, the other predator surviving on the battlefield did an even more nefarious act after rapidly calculating.

Crunch!

The Sperm Whale attacked, it didn't attack Sebastian, nor did it attack the enraged mommy jellyfish. It rather attacked the dead Giant Squid; its rows of teeth dug into the Squid's main body and removed a large chunk of flesh.

"What the f*ck!"

While Sebastian exclaimed in his heart, confused by the predator's illogical action, the Sperm Whale turned after getting the chunk of flesh that it wanted. 

Sebastian felt even more stunned as his electroreceptors suddenly detected something filled with energy appearing inside the Sperm Whale's body after it took that crucial bite.

"Wait…, what? Is that what I think it is?"

The Sperm Whale didn't wait for them, it inclined its enormous body before plunging straight for a dive deeper into the water. As it moved, its magic power spiked, creating a glowing blue water film around its body.

TRO! LO! LO! LO!

The enraged mommy Jellyfish seemed to have also detected the mischief that this Sperm Whale just did. Even more enraged now, her umbrella-shaped bell pulsated furiously as she bolted after the Sperm Whale.

Covered with her wildly flaring pink magic power, her tentacles lashed at the Sperm Whale's body as she activated a skill.

Boom!

The impact was mighty, spreading the sound everywhere but the Sperm Whale was unaffected. This Giant Whale seemed to have activated its ultimate buddha defense skill, nothing could interrupt its dive.

Like a turtle-shell mage, it dived deeper uninterrupted by the mommy jellyfish who now seemed like an annoying bug following it down.

Seeing this, Sebastian was stunned but not for long. In this battle, the Giant Squid lost completely while he was the one who got the first gain by killing it. The Sperm Whale already got the next gain, who said he couldn't get more?

The mommy jellyfish was now pursuing the Sperm Whale, which meant that he had a lot more room to maneuver. His clever brain immediately clicked as ideas to benefit more from this situation rapidly started being generated.

He remembered something, his first clan mission which was to get food for the pen. Right now, not only was the remaining meat of the Giant Squid left behind but hundreds of jellyfish meat were left also.

A light bulb seemed to have lit up inside his head. "The baby sharks are gonna taste jellyfish soup today!"

For how to carry so many meats back with him without being dragged down by them, Sebastian didn't have to think much to arrive at a plan.

According to his system, the system inventory was like a system storage ring to him where he could keep everything that he acquired, stole, or looted. For all these meat before him, he categorized them as acquired food.

He didn't know how big the capacity of his system inventory was, but he was about to try it out.

[Host's acquired food has been detected!]

Sebastian grinned sharkily on hearing that, he gave a thump up to the system in his mind.

[All material acquired food is automatically being stored inside the system inventory.]

[System Inventory:]

[Weapon: Octranezion.]

[Food: 1 purple tier Giant Squid meat, 121 orange tier Stinging Jellyfish meat, 36 white tier Stinging Jellyfish meat.]

Immediately after the series of notifications started lining up before him, like magic, all the dead jellyfishes and the corpse of the Giant Squid were suddenly enveloped by green light before disappearing from the battlefield.

Sebastian was stunned, despite already experiencing it after his last battle involving purple tier predators, still seeing the phenomenon where his system committed daylight theft left him awed.

He was not the only one who was stunned, the mommy Stinging Jellyfish who was currently battling with destroying the shield erected by the Sperm Whale was stunned as she also detected the theft.

If Jellyfishes had a mouth, this mommy jellyfish would have yelled in frustration. Her pink body glowed in rage as she abandoned the Sperm Whale before she started accelerating back towards the shark.

Having predicted this, Sebastian didn't even need to think first before he turned, dusted his butt, and fled away from the battlefield.

[You have activated magic skill: Supersonic Speed!]

[You have activated unique skill: Water Transmutation.]

[You have created a magic manifestation: Fishing Net!]

As soon as the skill was activated, Sebastian was surrounded by a green magic power as he moved with a speed akin to that of light. The water released steam as it parted for him to pass through.

Boom!

Even as he swam away at a supersonic speed, the fishing net magic manifestation still materialized before him. Sebastian used all his willpower and perception to direct the magic manifestation towards his target.

In moments, he arrived at the position where Shanks was still trying to stabilize himself from the influence of the raging water waves.

Before the young shark could blink, the fishing net covered him and dragged him away at the same speed. A few dozen meters away, the fishing net did the same thing, catching and dragging Tosh along.

A few seconds later, the 3 sharks disappeared from the battlefield like they were never there in the first place.
