Some of the Coral Palace's secret texts were unheard of, but others were recorded within the Coral Palace, concerning events before the arrival of the Great Goddess on Umijima Island. Only the current human goddesses and priestesses were qualified to peruse them.

Upon hearing this, Coral Palace's vigilance completely dissipated.

Hearing the sorrow in Su Zhe's voice, calling him "Old Ba" repeatedly and saying "my best brother," and how he regretted not being able to stop the knife for Orobas, Coral Palace's heart softened instantly.

"Lord Kyogre, don't be sad. You weren't in Inazuma back then, so no one knew that such a thing would happen."

According to the secret texts, the great serpent invaded eastward and fought against the Narukami Shogunate. In the end, Orobas was killed by the Thunder General with a single blow, and his body lay on Hachiyun Island.

Coral Palace Xin Hai didn't know much about the specifics either.

As for the truth, it has long been buried in history, and only a few people with a keen eye know it.

"Old Buffett is really confused!"

Su Zhe sighed.

"General Lei Dian is powerful; why would he even consider invading the east? Isn't that courting death?"

"Lord Kyogre...why do you address Lord Omikami as that?"

Actually, I had wanted to ask this before. This kind of title feels a bit strange for a demon god. And why is it 'Old Ba' and not 'Old Ao' or 'Old Luo' or something like that?

"Oh, that's what we call each other. He calls me the European Emperor, and I call him Old Ba. I've long forgotten the reason, I just remember this nickname."

Coral Palace suddenly realized that the relationship between Omikami and Lord Kyogre was actually closer than she had imagined.

"Lord Omikami... he must have been thinking about the survival of the sea people back then, right?"

"Oh? What do you mean?"

"Although the environment of Umijima Island is beautiful, the land is not suitable for farming. Food is scarce, with only a few crops such as radishes that can barely survive. In addition, the problem of seawater intrusion is serious, and the problem of 'sacred land' is often solved through the Miki Festival. Omikami was worried about the people of Umijima, so he made the later decision."

"I see."

Su Zhe knew the specific reason, of course, but he didn't intend to delve into it.

Old Bakker died because he touched on the truth; he wasn't that desperate.

Moreover, Su Zhe already knew almost everything he needed to know, so there was no need to force himself to explore the secrets of Yuanxia Palace.

"It seems your lives aren't easy either. In that case, I'll go with you to Haizhi Island. Although my power is diminished, protecting the people of Haizhi shouldn't be too difficult... However, my people are injured, and I need to find a place to heal them."

Su Zhe finally remembered that his good brother Shi Tou was still lying there. His injuries were too severe, and he didn't know if the treatment from Coral Palace Heart Sea would be effective.

"Then, Lord Kyogre, I'll go with you to see it."

"Alright."

After their conversation, Su Zhe led Coral Palace Xin Hai back to the place where the stone was hiding.

"Those humans captured him. He was already like this when I arrived. Humph! Those villains from the Kingdom of Winter, if it weren't for Queen Winter, I would have wiped them all out long ago!"

Su Zhe gave a soft snort.

“Those people... should be the Fatui. Their influence extends throughout the seven kingdoms. They are now appearing in Inazuma as a diplomatic mission. Lord Kyogre, please don’t be impatient. If the commotion is too great, General Raiden may have to take action personally.”

"I know, but that Thor is far away in the castle tower, so it won't be easy for him to find me. Although I'm injured, I still have my skills."

Coral Palace Heart Sea nodded slightly. The Demon God's abilities were naturally formidable. Back then, the Great God's abilities were also wildly admired by the Sea Gods. Even though the Demon God War was lost, the fact that he survived that chaotic battle already showed that he was no ordinary being.

After all, when demons and gods rose up and fought in chaos, those who had the ability to compete for the positions of the seven gods were not ordinary beings.

It seems that Lord Kyogre's strength is about the same as Lord Omikami's.

Thinking of this, Coral Palace's heart burned with excitement. If Lord Kyogre could lend a hand to Umijima Island, then...

"Girl, how is he?"

Her reverie was interrupted by Su Zhe's question. She snapped out of her reverie, waved her hand, and cast a healing spell on the stone, but with little effect.

The treatment can only repair the external injuries, but the demonic power within the stone is surging, and its consciousness is in a chaotic state that cannot be suppressed. If this vicious cycle continues, death is the only outcome.

"To restore it, we must first suppress the power within the body and gently nurture its divine essence. Once consciousness awakens, it should be able to overcome the difficulties."

"Coral Palace Heart Sea said softly."

“Lord Kyoka, there is a suitable place on Umiji Island, the place where the Great God once lived. It should be suitable for it to recuperate.”

"That's perfect. Let's go without delay."

As he said this, Su Zhe activated the power of darkness to descend, completely concealing their whereabouts.

The stone reveals traces of special elements, so Su Zhe always uses darkness to conceal himself when moving it.

On the other hand, if General Thunder really came, the darkness would erase all traces, and she wouldn't be able to find him.

"Lord Kyogre, this is..."

Suddenly, it became pitch black, which startled Coral Palace's Heart Sea.

"Don't panic. I've used my ability to conceal my whereabouts. Under these circumstances, even Thor won't be able to find me."

"That's amazing?"

"It's just a little trick, nothing to be surprised about. We demons who have transcended life and death, how could we survive under the system managed by the Seven Gods if we didn't have some special skills?"

While Xin Hai was shocked, he also began to understand something.

The power of the demon god seems to be even greater than she imagined.

...

Haege Island.

Although it is included in the Inazuma map in the game, it is not actually under the jurisdiction of the Narukami Shogunate.

The island has its own independent government; if you had to put it in a word, it's more like a 'state within a state'.

When Orochi led the sea spirits to invade the east, he was killed on Hachiyū Island. Surprisingly, the Thunder God did not make things difficult for the sea spirits, but instead continued to let them worship the sea spirit Ōmikami and continue to live on the island.

The reason for this is probably related to the Thunder God back then. When Raiden was still alive, Shadow, as a martial artist, was only responsible for resolving matters with force.

Well, he's basically just a reckless brute.

There was frequent interaction between Umijima and Inazuma. As Sango Mikoto said, the situation on the island was not very good, especially food. Even if they could go out to sea to fish, it was difficult to meet their needs, and they had to purchase large quantities from outside through trade.

In fact, this area was originally managed by the company, which is why it was possible for Coral Palace Kokoro and the Kamisato family to have a connection.

As they traveled towards Haiqi Island, Coral Palace Xin Hai briefly explained their current situation to Su Zhe.

The situation on Haiji Island and the matter of the resistance army cannot be hidden any longer, so it's better to be honest sooner rather than later.

"You're fighting the Shogunate? Why?" Su Zhe asked疑惑地. "The Shogunate has the Thunder General in charge, you have no chance of winning, right? Since the Eye Hunting Order is Inazuma's business, why are you from Umijima getting involved?"

Coral Palace Heart Sea sighed softly: "Lord Geoka, although Umijima is independent of Inazuma, it is also dependent on Inazuma. If Inazuma is in chaos, Umijima will not be able to remain unscathed. In addition, the shogunate army is already at odds with Umijima. They have attacked Umijima several times under the pretext of the isolation edict, and have cut off most of the trade between Umijima and Inazuma for various reasons."

"Now that Inazuma is closed off from the country, we can't even buy daily necessities from other countries. We can only get the goods we need to survive by spending several times the price of the past. If this continues, the sea will definitely be drained."

Su Zhe understood that the resistance on Haiji Island was less about the Eye Hunting Order and more about the Isolation Order and the strong pressure from the Shogunate army.

The Eye Hunt Order presents an opportunity, and Haiji Island doesn't want to sit idly by and wait for its demise, so it must seize it as much as possible.

That's why the Kamisato family secretly helped them, because Kamisato wanted Inazuma to have real peace.

Ayato Kamisato was well aware of the character of the two great magistrates, Tenryo and Kansei, while what Narukami Taisha wanted was for that child who had become withdrawn in the Pure Land of One Heart to come out.

Of these three, Haiji seeks survival, Shenli seeks stability, and Yae seeks the greatest. As long as Ying can understand this, then all of Inazuma's problems will cease to be problems.

After all, who could defy the will of the God of the Sky on this land?

Therefore, the resistance army was nothing more than a pawn of Narukami Taisha and its administrators.

However, it is not enough to simply maintain the existence of the resistance army. People's livelihoods are satisfied, but what about strength?

That's why Yae no Miko was overjoyed when she saw Su Zhe's performance. Actually, if it weren't for Su Zhe, the normal situation would have been the Traveler coming, then undergoing 'Shadow Confrontation' training, training with the help of Yae no Miko, this 'traitor,' and then defeating Thor, and finally Inazuma returning home... Ugh!

In short, Su Zhe basically understood.

However, it is still a long time before the travelers arrive in Inazuma, the resistance is weak, and the Fools' plans have only just begun.

Huh? He's going?

Impossible! Don't even think about it!

At most, Su Zhe would just raise ornamental fish on Haiqi Island and live a peaceful life.

wow~~

A giant beast emerged from the water.

The place where the giant serpent once recuperated can be reached directly from the sea.

"Lord Kyogre, please take your people there. The power cycle within this space will generate an even stronger 'Moon Transformation' power to help it recover."

"However, the exact time is uncertain. Without the support of the Great God's divine power, the power cycle here is actually very weak."

Su Zhe looked around.

The middle spot is an altar; it was there that the Key to the Abyss was obtained.

He could vaguely sense the flow of some kind of power within the cave, and the surrounding points were branches of the cycle. He didn't know if it was natural or created by Orobas, but the gathered power was beneficial for recovery, and Coral Palace Heart Sea hadn't lied to him about that.

Su Zhe dragged the stone to a point in the power cycle; what would happen next was up to the stone's fate.

After finishing these tasks, Coral Palace Heart Sea still needed to deal with the resistance army, so she left first.

Considering the current situation of Umijima Island, she did not reveal the existence of 'Lord Kyogre' to the public, but only ordered the people of Umijima Island not to approach the place.

Su Zhe had no objection to this. After Xin Hai left, he calmed down and quietly recuperated.

After a long time, his consciousness sank and merged into the distant dark space.

Outside the seal, a large pile of glittering Mora was now stacked up.

...

For the next few days, Inazuma remained unusually calm.

While the Tenryo magistrate was busy dealing with the sea monsters, the rebels pushed their front line back to Nashii Beach and then set up camp there, without advancing any further.

Meanwhile, the Tenryo Magistrate was searching extensively for the 'suspected demon god'. After returning to Inazuma, Kujo Sara stormed the Tenshukaku Castle to report the matter to the Shogun, but was stopped by Yae no Miko on the way.

The latter reason was to clarify the situation first to avoid making a blunder.

After all, this matter involves the Tenryo Magistrate and the Kujo family. If the Shogun were to blame them, the Kujo family would also suffer.

Kujo Sara finally agreed to Yae's suggestion. After all, she was a member of the Kujo family, and besides, this matter was indeed strange. With a little guidance from Yae, Kujo Sara's attention was immediately diverted from the Fatui.
