Chapter 79 Bewilderment
A few minutes ago, the Hell Island Crab suddenly began to mourn and wail incessantly. The loud voice made the eardrums bleed and the people began to feel dizzy.
At first, Momonga thought it was a steel pillar inserted into the brain of the Hell Island Crab, and it made it wail so loudly.
However, as the current ran out, the steel pillar calmed down, and the Hell Island Crab was still wailing and Momonga realized that something was wrong.
“What the hell is going on? What made this beast scream so much?”
This question lingered in everyone’s hearts, and they all became nervous.
“Could it be that Thunder Pillar?”
Momonga couldn’t help but think like that. The only thing that had happened to the Hell Island Crab, excluding their actions, was the Thunder Pillar that fell from the sky.
However, the Hell Island Crab itself can carry out a Discharge attack through its biological currents, and it has excellent resistance to lightning.
At the same time, even if the power of the Thunder Pillar exceeds the upper limit it can withstand, it will only cause some damage so why is it uttering such a despairing wail?
That kind of voice, if it hadn’t been for the fact that Momonga witnessed what the Hell Island Crab did after going crazy, he would have inevitably felt a little compassion for this beast.
Soon after, the Thunder Pillar disappeared.
However, the wailing of the Hell Island Crab did not stop, instead, it became bigger in an instant, going from wailing to a complete scream!
“What the heck is going on today?!!!”
Momonga was so angry that he almost smashed his fist through the railing.
The Recruiters on the island made him worry, the Hell Island Crab made him worry, but he had to force himself to show a calm expression on his face and he could not help but swear in his heart.
But what happened next made Momonga stunned. His Adjutant hurried over with the document and said to Momonga tremblingly: “Vice-Admiral Momonga, the signs of life of the Hell Island Crab are disappearing!!”
“I know that, but…why?!!!”
The people who can use Observation Haki can already see the situation as it is.
When the Scientific Device finally collected information from the chaotic magnetic field, it judged that the signs of life of the Hell Island Crab were disappearing. Momonga discovered this one step in advance.
In fact, Ordinary Soldiers can sometimes explode with greater courage than Generals because they can’t perceive the terrifying breath of life of this Giant Beast!
Now that breath fell like a stone from a cliff, and Momonga would naturally discover such a huge change.
But then the question arises, why is this happening?
Who the heck killed the Hell Island Crab?!
Didn’t he know that once this thing died, the new Hell Island Crab shell would emerge from the old shell that is “Hell Island” by one-third of its size?
Their safety device is made in the current area of Hell Island. Once the opponent is resurrected, the existing Steel Pillars wouldn’t be able to trap the behemoth in front of them!
“No! We have to rush back to the Marine Headquarters immediately to discuss countermeasures!”
Momonga’s gaze condensed, and he ordered: “Send my order and launch a retreat signal! Everyone board the lifeboat and board the island and rescue the Recruits!”
“Yes, Sir!!”
Looking at the Hell Island Crab that had begun to spasm because it was on the verge of death, Momonga silently thought in his heart: ‘No matter how many sacrifices would be needed to reseal the Hell Island Crab in the future, at least these little guys would be safe.
Phew!!
A yellow plume of smoke rushed high into the sky, and the Recruits on the Island were ecstatic for a moment.
“Great! It’s the retreat signal!”
“We are finally saved!!”
“Long liveVice-Admira Momongal! Long live the Marines!”
At the top of the mountain, Dante and others were equally excited.
As soon as the Giant Beast beneath their feet began to cry out in grief, the Beast Tide was calmed by a strong breath of despair, which was most clearly seen by them standing on high ground.
The only turbulence left was the small-scale chaos caused by the powerful Beast Kings calming down to return to their lair as the last return spasms began.
If the Beast Tide started because of the Thunderstorm, then everything that followed had nothing to do with the said Thunderstorm.
It was the creatures on the Hell Island that sensed the beast beneath their feet beginning to awaken, and that innate up and down pressure sent them into a frenzy.
Now, with the Beast’s dying wail, the pressure on them disappeared, and the animals who were filled with madness came back to their senses.
‘What are we running for? Let’s go back and eat something!’
The Beast Tide is not only extremely dangerous for Recruits, but it is also dangerous for the Beasts in Beast Tide. In this Beast Tide containing Thousands of Beasts, countless weak beasts were trampled to death, they were crushed, and eaten by the other beasts.
Even the Beast King did not dare to say that they would be able to save themselves. Now that the Giant Beast beneath their feet is slowly dying, the only spasm and tremor that remained on the Island is nothing for these beasts as they are used to volcanic eruption level tremors.
After calming down one by one, they slowly spread out, heading for their own areas.
It goes without saying how many bloodshed events will now occur.
Dante is a sensible person. He clearly saw this point and loudly said: “Do not get excited! Although the Beast Tide had dispersed, but there are still many powerful creatures down there! Everyone don’t be reckless and let’s slip out without getting notices by those powerful beasts!”
“Yes! Officer Dante!”
After the death crisis was over, the smiles that the Recruit had not seen for days finally returned to their faces. Dante shook his head and ignored it and he turned his head to look behind him.
Now that the turmoil has subsided, maybe Rowen should appear too, right?
Dante is not a Boy Lover, he just wants to know how much distance he has been pulled away in the days of Hell Island…
…
A few hours later, in a cave in the southeast area of the Hell Island, Marine’s temporary station.
“Yes! The Hell Island Crab has been confirmed to be dead!” Momonga reported to the Den Den Mushi in a calm tone, then pondered for a moment, and said: “When it comes back to life again, please let me stand at the front!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Sengoku immediately yelled from the other side of Den Den Mushi: “Enough! It’s not your fault Momonga! Are you trying to embarrass me as a Fleet Admiral?
Momonga responded with silence, and Sengoku also responded with silence.
In fact, both of them understood that trying to reseal the Hell Island Crab would cost as many resources and manpower as going to war with one of the New World’s Yonkō (Four Emperors)!
There will be countless deaths, and Marines will lose a lot of Resources! And someone has to take the blame for such a huge loss!
That someone would either be Momonga who failed to do his duty, or it would be Sengoku who is the Fleet Admiral…
