Endless Ocean: Escape Starting from a Canoe

Chapter 160 Spreads Throughout the Endless Oceans! (Third Update)
The next day, the twelve stars.

Ize brought a rather lavish breakfast to Wright's hospital room, inquiring about her teacher's injuries. Wright's injuries were no longer serious, but Ize still felt a strange sense of loss, as if a young girl's innocent heart had been shattered, its fragments scattered somewhere unknown.

That figure lingers in my mind.

She rested her chin on her hand, her brows furrowed with an indescribable sadness.

"Yize, could you read today's morning paper to me?"

"Okay, teacher."

Ize picked up a maritime intelligence report, exclusively for high-ranking officials within the Twelve Stars, and began to read it. This wasn't the kind of newspaper the general public could read; only figures of the Fontainebleau's caliber were entitled to subscribe.

"The Da Yu Xi Rang Research Institute claims to have deciphered part of the inscription on the mysterious stone tablet once again."

"Ancient sea monster skeletons dating back 10,000 years have been discovered in the endless icy sea."

"The Pharaoh, a general-class drifting ship, has suffered severe damage. Its general-class properties have mysteriously failed. Its famously sturdy pyramid structure has been damaged by the mysterious drifting ship. The estimated loss is over 5000 pure crystals."

As Ize read, he paused for a moment.

This is information with pictures, and a color photo is also attached.

It was a young man standing proudly at the bow of a drifting ship. In front of him were dense cannonballs raining down. His face was resolute and fearless. Beside him was the Pharaoh, a general-class drifting ship with a large hole in it. At the edge of the photo, the remains of a sculpture of a four-eyed cobra could also be seen.

"Stone?"

There was an inexplicable surge of uncontrollable joy in Ize's voice.

That overwhelming sense of loss vanished completely.

"Oh?"

Wright got up from his sickbed, and Ize hurriedly put down the intelligence report and helped his teacher up.

Wright sat up and took the intelligence report.

His eyes carefully observed the figures in the picture, his icy blue pupils gradually widening.

It really was him! His height, demeanor, appearance, and even the drifting boat behind him were exactly the same as the "Stone" we knew before.

Moreover, the secret patterns on this guy's face, body, and eyes are the same secret patterns that once appeared on the deep-sea Titan, aren't they?

Chains of Order!

So, it all makes sense.

Miss Yan, whom he initially believed to be the ultimate victor, died mysteriously, and the mysterious figure who seized the spoils of victory remained elusive. Now it seems it was him? This kid is no ordinary person; he actually managed to defeat Miss Yan, who was known as the "Blazing Succubus," and become the final victor!
And yet, such a commotion has been stirred up on African soil again?
Wright remained silent for a long time.

He sighed, then felt relieved again.

That's it.

It's better than it falling on Miss Yan of the Lighthouse.

Perhaps it's my own Ocean-Calming Pearl...

Ugh!
He looked at his apprentice, whose eyes shone like stars, and sighed again.

After the previous battle, he was completely demoralized and now only wanted to manage Fontainebleau and family affairs. However, this news would soon reach the Lighthouse, and given their ruthless methods, he feared...

……

……

……

Some people are worried.

Some people are happy.

Even before the Twelve Stars and Fontainebleau received the news, the Nile, which was also in the Yellow Sands Sea, was on board. At that moment, its captain, Orhan, almost laughed his big gold tooth out.

"Ha ha ha, Ptolemy, you've finally met your match!"

"Repairing this Pharaoh will probably take quite a bit of work, won't it? I really want to see your face right now; it must make my heart race more than the legendary Cleopatra..."

And that newly promoted S-rank Awakened One also died.

The Sea Beast Feast has also been cancelled...

Orhan was smug.
Now you're not bragging anymore, are you?!
Humility is a quality of successful people; arrogance only leads to destruction, my brother.

"This young man named Stone is truly a hero of the Yellow Sands! His drifting ship, which looks like just a mere silver ship, how did it break through the Pharaoh's [suppression] and smash such a large gap in it?"

"If we can learn this secret, the Nile will surely teach the Pharaoh a painful lesson next time we encounter it."

Orhan pondered, his mood becoming even more cheerful.

"Send word that Fatuna, Ansuya, Zhu Ji, Alila, Sharta, Sanges, and Riel should bathe and change their clothes and come to my palace. I will bestow upon them the greatest favors."

"Yes, Your Majesty the Sultan."

"Summon Lord Artu; the best pleasures are made possible by the assistance of his skills."

……

……

...Lighthouse.

Commander Trindon leaned back on the sofa, looking at the intelligence on the electronic screen.

This was sent to him by "Golden Tower," and its summary was only one sentence: "Find the suspected culprit who murdered Miss Yan, and the person behind the acquisition of the Deep Sea Titan Skill Fruit."

The photo shows a young man.

Standing on what appears to be a Silver-class drifting ship.

The pyramids crumbled, and fireballs flew everywhere.

The visuals are truly epic.

Single-handedly, he rammed a corner of the Pharaoh, killed a newly promoted S-class powerhouse in full view of everyone, entered and exited the suppression sea area as if it were no place, and turned the Pharaoh's feast into a joke... No wonder, only someone like him could make Miss Yan perish and die on Olympus.

Trindon was quite surprised, but his face remained expressionless.

It was as if they were just handling a routine government matter, replying with only a few words.

"Find this person and eliminate him."

He thought for a moment and then added a few more words.

"Keep the body as intact as possible."

Then, he took out the communicator that read "Let there be light."
The information was synchronized.

……

……

……

Black Society.

The princess sat on her throne, with her young wolfhound Tatasta behind her and her niece, Naruno, who was 10 years younger than her but looked 20 years older.

Tatasta gazed at the princess with tenderness, like a knight guarding her side.

Naruno glanced at the intelligence report and a look of astonishment, barely perceptible to others, appeared in his eyes.

The princess finished reading the intelligence report and put it down.

"You mean, it was this kid who stole the No. 23333 drifting ship and the map of the Endless Seas?"

"They even killed the Demon Blade?"

Itsukushima Rin, sitting in the lower seat, said with absolute certainty:

"Indeed, although the Great Wilderness is dead, after comparing the details of the drifting ship, a large number of other features and trajectory comparisons, as well as the information from the Golden Pagoda, we have confirmed without a doubt that this ship is the drifting ship numbered 23333, and its current captain is suspected to be an S-class Awakener who has acquired the unknown ability of the Deep Sea Titan."

"It is highly likely that Ashina also died at his hands."

In fact, Ashina was killed by Lady Flame.

But Wright couldn't possibly tell the Black Society such information, lest he offend the Lighthouse.

A lighthouse cannot self-destruct.

Even if the triads knew, so what?
"It's not easy."

"This mere kid can manipulate your gang so easily?"

She glanced at the little wolfhound behind her, the father of the child in her womb.

"Tatasta, your opponent has arrived."

The young, wolf-like Tatasta grinned.

“I am willing to serve you, my princess.”

……

……

……

"Captain, you seem to have become famous."

"Haha."

Shi Ming sat at the bow of the boat, holding a fishing rod in his hand.

It doesn't matter,
He had long known that the day the Titan Descent skill was revealed would be the day he was fully exposed to the Lighthouse and the Black Society, and all intelligence would be presented in a complete closed loop, making it impossible to hide anymore.

But so what?

Born fearless, fight to the very end.

……

He moved his wrist.

The fish have taken the bait again.
