Chapter 234 Eye of the Storm

“This doesn’t make sense! Why would we encounter a mythical god here?!” Todd asked, shaking his head.

The Demon Eye seemed to sense the movement on the water's surface, turning its eyeballs and casting its gaze toward the Black Pearl.

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

We will all die!

Aisha got up from the ground and ordered her men, "Raise the sails! Full speed ahead! Get out of these waters as soon as possible!"

By the time the order was given, it was too late. Several enormous tentacles emerged from the seabed and tightly bound the Black Pearl. The ship, already battered by storms, saw its planks crack and utter a final, mournful cry before its demise under the immense force of the tentacles.

"Damn it! Cut off these disgusting things!" Aisha drew her short sword and stabbed at the nearest tentacle, but this action completely enraged the Demon Eye.

More tentacles emerged from the black water, snatched the anchor, and dragged away the crew, plunging the deck into chaos.

To make matters worse, a storm gradually swept across the area, and the once calm sea was once again overtaken by gales, torrential rain, giant waves, and lightning.

In this situation, it was no longer time to hide their strength. Todd used his abilities of "Metal Skin," "Speed," "Power Enhancement," and "Weakness," while Rachel used her telekinesis to attack the giant tentacles together.

However, as one tentacle was driven back, another tentacle rose from the sea.

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

Rachel looked at Todd, her eyes filled with despair.

Todd, however, did not give up hope of survival. He observed everything around him that might offer a chance for life. When he noticed the hurricane blowing against the unfurled sails, causing the ship to tilt gradually, his eyes lit up, and he grabbed Rachel and ran to the base of the mast.

He grabbed the mast ropes that were swinging wildly in the wind and rain, found two, and tied one to Rachel's waist and the other to his own. Then, he took a few steps back and slammed heavily against the mast.

The already shaky mast, under the impact of the supernatural power, has developed some cracks in its base and the mast itself has tilted slightly.

Aisha, having seen through Todd's plan, jumped off the helm, dodged the tentacles attacking from all directions, grabbed a cable, and tied it to herself.

After estimating the distance and force, Todd took a few more steps back and crashed into the mast once more.

The base of the mast broke off, and the entire mast separated from the hull.

Todd roared, maximizing his "Power Enhancement" ability, grabbed the falling mast with both arms, and lifted it up.

A gust of wind swept across the sails, like flying a kite, and lifted the mast and the three people into the air.

Todd glanced at the Black Pearl beneath his feet, which was being dragged into the sea by tentacles, closed his eyes, and his body drifted further and further away in the storm.
