The turquoise waters turned black, and the calm waves turned into stormy waves in the blink of an eye.

The wind whipped the torrential rain like countless whips, slamming into the hull of the Black Pearl.

Aisha stood at the stern of the boat, clutching at the rudder and shouting at the crew. The sound of the wind and waves drowned out her voice, and the sailors could only hear a few staccato words—'mast,' 'broadside,' and 'counterweight'.

The experienced crew immediately guessed the captain's intentions, and they shouted to their companions, and together they stood on the right side of the ship, grabbed the edge, and adjusted the counterweight, so that the Black Pearl's hull was rebalanced.

Todd hurried down the deck, and had just stepped on the first step when he fell heavily in the midst of a jolt of waves.

Struggling to get up from the floor of the cabin, Todd touched his forehead, and his palm touched a warm pool of blood, but fortunately, the wound had slowly healed under the influence of "regeneration".

Stumbling to his feet, gasping for air, he leaned against the wooden wall and walked towards the cabin.

When the hatch was opened, the room was in a mess, and Rachel was lying on the floor, rummaging for something.

Todd, who was staggering, rushed forward and grabbed her hand, shouting, "Follow me!"

The woman's face showed a rare panic and helplessness: "Our luggage! And the map that the connector gave me!"

"Leave that alone!" Todd pulled Rachel hard towards the door.

Walking down the aisle, the two saw the sailors scooping out the poured sea water while throwing supplies and cargo from the hold into the sea through the window.

Back on deck, Todd heard Aisha screaming.

"Prepare to withstand the onslaught!"

Following everyone's gaze towards the bow of the boat, Todd and Richer were shocked by the scene in front of them, and forgot to breathe.

A black wave as high as fifteen meters high, covering the sun and isolating the sky, like an ancient mountain, heading straight towards the small black pearl.

Feel the hull beneath you, as if you are climbing a mountain, and go up at an angle of 30 degrees. Todd, who reacted, pulled Rachel to the stern of the boat, clinging to the wooden fence.

The hull climbs upwards with the slope of the seawater, and the slope becomes larger and larger, 45 degrees, 60 degrees, 70 degrees, and finally the hull climbs almost vertically to the top of the sea wave slope.

Aisha wiped a handful of salt water from her face, and there was a fanaticism for the sea and adventure in her heterochromatic pupils: "Come on! Let the wind blow harder! Let the rain fall harder! This is the life I love!"

The black pearl rolls over the first wave, falls off the crest, and plummets vertically to the surface.

Everything on the ship went into a state of weightlessness, and the barrels, ropes, and even the body slowly floated into the air.

Immediately afterward, a huge impact spread throughout the hull, and it felt like a roller coaster descending from top to bottom.

Just when Todd thought he could breathe a sigh of relief, an even bigger wave swept in.

Aisha steered the rudder of the ship, laughing and shouting loudly under the stunned gaze of the people, and once again drove the Black Pearl into the waves.

In this way, I don't know how long it has been in the journey of suffering up and down, and the wind and waves have gradually decreased.

Todd sat at the stern of the boat with Rachel in his arms, drenched in the icy water, shivering at the sky.

The rolling clouds faded away, and a clear sky appeared overhead.

"The storm is over?!"

Todd stood up, and the joy of the rest of his life made him laugh.

Unfortunately, the joy didn't last long.

"We are now at the very center of the storm, commonly known as the 'eye of the storm'. Aisha asked her men to make urgent preparations for the Black Pearl as she lifted her hand and pointed to the bow of the ship.

Todd followed his hand and looked around, dark clouds and torrential rain filled the four directions, east, east, west, and west, except for the silence where the hull of the ship was.

Aisha twisted the seawater on her clothes, shook her hair, and said in a deep voice: "Wait a while, we still have to find a way, sail out of the eye of the storm, this journey is more dangerous than just now......"

Before he could finish speaking, one of the sailors let out a panicked cry: "What are those black things under the ship!"

Everyone ran to the side of the boat, looked down, and noticed the strangeness of the water.

The color of the water in a 50-meter radius of the Black Pearl is somewhat different from the rest of the world. The perimeter of the hull is black, and a little further away is blue.

"Seaweed, fish?" Aisha said, holding the edge of the boat with both hands, looking at the sea, and frowning, "This sea is too dark, like a bottomless pit. ”

Just when everyone was still talking about it, what happened next completely broke everyone's psychological defense.

One eye.

A huge eye opened, and it appeared in the 'Black Water', the size of the entire Black Pearl's hull!

Screaming, crying, and cursing rang out on the deck, and some of the less timid sailors fainted directly.

Aisha's legs went limp, and she sat directly on the ground, muttering something to herself.

A forbidden name that gradually spread among the crowd - "Balor, the Demon King of the Evil Eye".

Todd looked at the huge eyeball under the hull and listened to the name that the sailors had repeatedly mentioned, and asked Rachel, "What exactly is Balor?!"

Richel's face lost its blood, and her teeth chattered: "The Evil Eye Demon King Balor is the king of the Deep Sea Giant Clan Fermore in the mythology of the northern barbarians, and it is rumored that he can use the magic eye to kill any living being!"

"This doesn't make sense!Why did you meet a mythical god here?!" Todd asked, shaking his head.

The MONOCULUS seemed to sense movement on the water, and turned its eyes to the Black Pearl.

"Oh my God! It's looking at us!"

"We're all going to die!"

Aisha got up from the ground and commanded her men, "Raise the sails! Go full speed! Get out of the waters as soon as possible!"

By the time the order was given, it was too late, and several huge tentacles reached out from the bottom of the sea, entangled the Black Pearl. The hull of the ship, which had been hit by a storm, cracked in the face of the huge force of the tentacles, and let out a "mournful cry" before death.

"Damn! Cut off these disgusting things!" Aisha drew her dagger and stabbed at the nearest tentacle, only to be completely annoyed by the Eye.

More tentacles came out of the black water, and they grabbed the anchor, swept away the crew, and the deck was thrown into chaos.

To add insult to injury, storms are gradually reaching the sea, and everything that had been calm is once again occupied by strong winds, showers, huge waves, and lightning.

In this situation, it is no longer the time to hide his strength, Todd uses the abilities of "Metal Skin", "Speed", "Strength Enhancement", and "Weaken", and Rachel uses his mind power to attack these giant tentacles together.

However, one tentacle was knocked back, and another rose from the sea.

Some of the sailors on the ship had the idea of abandoning the ship, grabbed a piece of wood or a wooden barrel, jumped into the sea, and swam forward with all their might, but they were swept by the tentacles under the surface of the sea, and they disappeared in an instant.

Rachel looked at Todd with desperation in her eyes.

Todd still didn't give up hope of survival, and he watched everything around him that might become life. When he noticed that the hurricane was blowing on the open sails, blowing the whole ship into a gradual tilt, his eyes lit up, and he grabbed Richel and ran under the mast.

Grab the mast ropes that were tossed around in the wind and rain, find two, and tie them to Rachel and his own waist. Then, he took a few steps back and slammed into the mast.

The mast that was already crumbling had some cracks in the base under the impact of the abnormal power, and the rod body had also tilted slightly.

Aisha, who saw Todd's plan, jumped off the helm platform, dodged the tentacles attacking everywhere, grabbed a cable, and tied it to herself.

Estimating the distance and strength, Todd took a few more steps back and hit the mast again.

The base of the rod broke in response, and the entire mast was detached from the hull.

Todd roared, and the ability of "Strength Enhancement" was activated to the maximum, and he grabbed the falling mast with both arms and raised it.

A hurricane blew on the sails of the ship, like a kite, and blew the mast into the air with the three men.

Glancing at the Black Pearl that was gradually being dragged to the bottom of the sea by tentacles, Todd closed his eyes and moved farther and farther away in the storm.
