Ocean Master

The victory of the Anemone Domain over their main rivals was a shocking outcome that spread through a large area of influence of high-grade rural settlements. Every rural settlement knew of the news.

In the decades-long stalemate that both high-grade rural settlements were forced to drag their rivalry on, a lot of people believed that the Snake Kingdom was the stronger side.

Despite the advantages that the mechs of the clownfish brought, the Snake Kingdom was the side that still had the deeper foundations.

Their snake elders were also seen as stronger, as all 5 of them were veteran Red tier predators that could go against any same-tiered opponent without worrying unless they went against freaks like Eliana.

The fact that the Snake Kingdom was the one who started the invasion first did not surprise a lot of spectators, this was only to be expected.

It was the outcome of the invasion attempt that shocked them stiff.

Situations where the dark horse won against the favorite were always loved and hyped by people, and the same thing remained prevalent with Oceania beasts.

This victory of the Anemone Domain instantly shot them to fame among the most prominent high-grade rural settlements of the Green Mist Sea.

The Anemone Domain became a household name to a lot of predators, not only because they won the war but mostly because of the little time that it took them to vanquish the snakes.

In the whole Green Mist Sea, even the war that was already brewing between the Beast Empires, none of them had properly developed yet not to talk of ending which made the clownfish victory all the more iconic.

When the situation seemed dire to them, the manner in which the clownfish turned the circumstances was so legendary that the feat could not be ignored.

The wisdom of the Chief Councilor of the Anemone Domain was clearly demonstrated through the victory. 

By deliberately ordering some of his councilors to collude with the snakes, pretending that they were dissatisfied with his rule, they managed to hoodwink the hoodwinkers, playing and winning the snakes in their own game.

The performance of the other 12 councilors, and of course the Commander in Chief of the clownfish army could not be sidelined either.

Despite the wonderful performance of all these iconic clownfish in the victory, the real hero of this upset victory was not a clownfish, but a Megalodon!

The Megalodon who came as an anatomist, but left as a hero of the Anemone Domain became known in a lot of regions of the Green Mist Sea after his exploits in the clownfish-snake war.

Sebastian's feat of being a mere purple tier predator who managed to annihilate a pinnacle Red tier predator like the Ancient Basilisk was so legendary that no predator dared to sideline him.

No one questioned how he killed the snake, they didn't even care if he used outside help, all that they knew was that he killed a Red tier predator.

Killing a Red tier predator of the Basilisk's caliber was already enough to be called a legendary feat, but doing so as a purple tier predator hit a lot harder.

Instantly, Sebastian's infamous exploits spread everywhere.

Sebastian's stint in the ocean volcano region where he killed Octumpedam and all his other exploits was also an abnormal feat that could only be described as legendary, but those exploits did not garner him any fame.

He didn't get fame because the ocean volcano was cut off from the rest parts of Oceania. It was when he proved his mettle in a well-known high-grade rural settlement that he finally entered the sight of the big players.

Instantly, every high-grade rural settlement and beast organization in this region of the Green Mist Sea was taking note of this Megalodon. 

Sebastian's exploits brought him to the limelight, and this exposed him to both neutral, enemy, and friendly beast organizations.

…

The Green Mist headquarters of the Demon Inter-racial bounty organization.

Inside the secret underground compartment that was the secret headquarters of this massive beast bounty organization, the dimly lit room was filled with a serious atmosphere as the variant humans went on with their work.

On one of the well-sophisticated virtual system multipurpose computers, the white screen suddenly turned blank before switching on again with a red background now dominating the computer screen.

Also, an alert icon was flashing on the red screen.

On seeing the alert icon, the red scale-skinned variant human floated up immediately as he left the dimly lit room to another part of the underground base.

"Come in".

Before he could knock, his superior already permitted him so the red scale-skinned variant human swam in without wasting any time.

"Your Excellency, Master Red Mask!"

"What is the situation?"

"News about the Megalodon was just discovered".

The blue-skinned variant human immediately stood up. "Tell me".

"Yes, your Excellency". 

A few minutes later, the leader of this base finally understood the full gist. "Connect me to the deep-strike team".

"Yes, your Excellency".

About a minute later, a communication request was put through to the deep-strike bounty hunting team that was sent to claim the black bounty target.

"Information about the target has been found".

"Reorient your search direction. Start a wide-search sweep with the high-grade rural settlement called the Anemone Domain as the starting point".

"If we're in luck, we can intercept him before he escapes again".

"Yes, your Excellency!"

Once the call ended, the grayish-white eyes of the blue-skinned variant human narrowed as he tried to guess the thought process of the Megalodon.

In the end, he sighed. "What a random fellow".

…

A lone warship floated through the waters of the Green Mist Sea in stealth.

At this moment, the massive warship was moving through a region filled with dangerous predators but it could not be seen due to its stealth state.

This was the modified Annihilator warship that was renamed a few months ago when it changed owners, becoming a private-owned warship.

The Omega Annihilator warship was the vessel of the lone Atlantian warrior, Captain Omega who was now on a vengeance hunt.

A few months ago, when Captain Omega tried his hand taking the lone warrior route with his newly acquired warship, he expected a lot of difficulties but the problems of going alone still proved more than he expected.

For over a month, this Captain and his crew struggled as they could not settle down completely to build a foundation of survival for themselves.

It was when they started it that they really knew the challenges involved. They were no longer part of a massive Division Fleet where they could easily restock with headquarters, they were alone, survival was theirs alone.

Surviving beast attacks, recovering from damages to the warship, maintaining a healthy diet and sleep schedule, all became problems that plagued Captain Omega's crew. It was only recently that they started adapting.

Due to the challenges of adapting to going alone, Captain Omega's crew had never been able to focus on pursuing their target, what they didn't expect was for the Megalodon itself to leave clues behind for them.

Like most of the major rural settlements out there, though they were just a single warship, they were powerful and also got the information.

Once Captain Omega got the news, his eyes that were already turning weary from exhaustion shone again like he had just taken a dosage of hard drugs.

"Full throttle ahead!"

"We're going to the Anemone Domain; our search starts there!"

The Annihilator activated its accelerators as it blasted away at full speed.
