[West Sea Area - Ship Association Branch]
This is the official competition area for the World Championship: Death Wheel Race.
On the vast Red Sea, a huge fortress-like structure floats on the surface of the sea.
The bunker has a total of eighteen floors, and the top floor is now filled with a group of people.
Looking around, there's Roland of the Collins family, Kale of the Tasius family, Merlin of the Merlin family, Luca of the Luca family, and a whole host of other families from the Western Sea region...
These people can be said to control the upper echelons of the entire [Demon Sea Star].
but!
At this moment, the group of people watched the live broadcast of the [Giant City Ruins Tournament] with amused expressions.
"Whoa—"
"I never expected... that Zheng Hao actually had an apprentice?"
"It looks pretty good, doesn't it?"
Croatian Gil swirled his wine glass, speaking with a hint of sarcasm.
Sitting next to him was Freddy Rockburn, the head of the Freddy family.
"It's not bad..."
"Your shipbuilding skills are quite good, but unfortunately..."
"A bunch of fancy features, but in the end, they're still no match for the numbers..."
Yan Shao shrugged, completely uninterested in watching the game.
Even though Zheng Hao has repeatedly demonstrated the infinite possibilities of [ship skills], this group of powerful families in the Western Sea still firmly believe in the core ideas of 'numerical value first' and 'talent first'.
"Hi..."
"This kid's [shipping skills] are actually quite commendable..."
"At least, he can boost the ship girls' stats without any side effects! Can you imagine? If this kid appeared alongside that ship girl from back then, how overpowered would that be?"
Unlike the others, Tassius Cabbage accepted the emergence of [Ship Skills] with great magnanimity.
"Cabbage, you're talking about all this..."
"You didn't recruit him either..."
Merlin sneered: "What [ship skills]? If it weren't for his good luck in the last competition, he would have been utterly crushed by Amin! Gentlemen, don't forget why we're here today?"
"What's the point of this competition?"
Turning away, Merlin seemed disgusted at the sight of Zheng Hao, his eyes scanning all the family members present.
"Of course I know..."
"The [Serve] Project..."
"Three years have passed... things have stalled with the [Shipping Alliance]... I think it's time to test her blood potential! I plan to use this on the [Death Wheel]..."
Luca narrowed his eyes, and a strange smile inexplicably appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"But..."
"Didn't this thing get into an accident three years ago? That match... wasn't it?!"
Roland was clearly still somewhat hesitant.
"Enough!"
"It's been three years! The technology should have matured long ago!"
"Why should a boat girl from the slums be able to wield power beyond limits?! This kind of thing should be controlled by our great family!"
"I propose we initiate Project Serum!"
"【The Wheel of Death】marks the beginning of our dominance of the Western Sea!"
"Bang!"
Yan Shao smashed his wine glass and stood up abruptly.
He glanced at everyone, and they all nodded knowingly.
"Can..."
"It's worth a try..."
"At worst, we can just repeat what happened three years ago..."
"......"
Everyone spoke in a nonchalant tone, as if they were deciding on a trivial matter.
In the midst of this crowd, a refined-looking servant with graying hair, dressed in a suit, was holding a glass of wine, his hand trembling uncontrollably. His gaze kept drifting to the [Copy Number] on the screen, his face deathly pale.
"Xiao Rou..."
"Xiao Rou..."
......
Let's rewind to the scene at the [Ruins of Giant City].
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh—"
The gale continued to suck the giant's mouth in, and the [Copy], crackling with electricity, was about to crash into the tail of the [Destiny]!
"Tsk..."
"So that's why Zheng Hao sent you onto the field..."
"So we're the same kind of friends..."
"You know what? I've been planning this for so long for today's competition... for first place! How could I... how could I let you take first place so easily?!"
"【Whirlwind Charge Tornado】, right?! I already had a way to deal with that move in my mind!"
"【The God of Fate】!!!"
"Buzz—"
Inside the [Siming], Yinshan Ji was steering the ship in a manner resembling a Tai Chi symbol. The outlines of the [Copy] and [Lich] ships immediately appeared on the Yin-Yang symbol.
"Buzz—"
As the black and white fish rotated, the outlines of the two ships were swapped.
In that instant!
The Lich, which was originally in last place and was hovering in the air, suddenly accelerated and was about to overtake the Nightmare!
"Um?"
"You can also accelerate at high altitudes?"
"Wait a minute! You wouldn't happen to be...?"
Focalman glanced at the Lich's increased speed and immediately picked up the weapon again to avoid the collision.
He seemed completely unconcerned about finishing last, simply watching the Lich overtake him and crash into the Copycat!
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh—"
At the same time, the rotation speed of the [Copy] was also rapidly decreasing, and the lightning that burst out around the hull was also rapidly dissipating.
