Chapter 354 Baby Shark!

Chapter 354 Baby Shark!

— ROAR! —

Smelling the blood, an enormous prehistoric-looking shark appeared!

Wasn't this a little too fast? And how the hell was it roaring underwater?! In any case, the creature had already locked on Jack.

< Bloodthirsty Great Killer Shark! Lv. 50 :shark:>

Moon Moon and the eel stepped forward, ready to help him fight. But Jack had other plans, crazy ones. "Stand Back. I'll personally deal with this one." He ordered.

One versus one against a goddamn shark?!

"Y-you're joking, right?! Why?!"

"Woo!" (Trust in him!)

The little wolf moved to the side, trusting his master more than logic would have warranted. It was wholeheartedly supporting this "suicide" attempt, even cheering…

Just by moving, the creature was generating a fast current. #Shark Maelstrom #Much Speed! #Scary Shark!

The monster's appearance would have been enough to prompt anyone to flee. Every sharp tooth was already larger than Jack's head! But he calmly took his shield out, readying himself.

— ROAR! —

Then the monster was upon him.

Its enormous body collided with him, generating a force so colossal that resisting was impossible— not that he would try.

Jack blocked it, using the momentum to push himself away from the creature, his feet leaving the ground, rapidly floating away. That's when the creature's nightmarish grin seemed to grow.

Just from this exchange, it knew that it would win! Its meal was utterly doomed now that it had lost its footing. The water was the shark's domain.

It swam unbelievably quickly and—

— CRUNCH! —

But something strange happened just as it was about to gobble the human up. Out of nowhere, a blue light appeared along with….a trident?!

[You cannot Wield This Weapon!]

[You cannot—]

Yet a bright red damage number appeared above the creature's evil head!

Jack had used the mythical trident he had obtained back then and positioned it perfectly for the shark to hurt itself! The shark couldn't help but be taken aback. What was that?!

Its eyes turned red with fury as it slapped its tail toward the human. A push attack! Jack diligently blocked it with his shield, being sent flying once more.

Fighting underwater usually hindered players, but he was using the water to absorb the shock of the shark's attacks. Otherwise, he would have long been reduced to a paste.

— ROAR! —

The shark seemingly entered a mad rampage, slapping with its tail, cutting with its fins, and biting at the target. That's when Jack's talent shone; not many witnessed it, sadly.

"H-how is he doing that?! How is this possible? The shark seems to be toying with him at first glance, and yet…WTF?!" The eel cried out in disbelief.

There was something perverse about Jack's method of fighting. He wasn't actually doing any damage himself, the shark's skin being way too thick…and yet he was winning?!

Every shark bite always ended up with the poor creature biting the trident. At first, it tried to devour the thing hole; how hard could it be, right? Except, it was a mythical trident! #Sturdy!

No matter how much the shark bit, it simply couldn't break the item. It had also tried stealing it many times, only for skeletons to "help" it give it back to Jack.

Their bony hands couldn't do much damage, but they had no qualm whatsoever about diving deep into the shark's mouth to retrieve the weapon.

But the longer the fight went on, the more tired Jack became. Moon Moon could sense how exhausted its master was, worry adorning its tiny face.

Yet, even then, it still believed…and cheered of course!

"Woo!" (Beat this baddy shark!)

Faced with such humiliation, the shark progressively lost its mind. It went from furious to savage, only to have a mental breakdown afterward. It didn't help that Jack kept taunting it!

"Come on, big guy! What are you waiting for? Aren't you hungry? Can't you smell my tasty blood? Doesn't it just make your stomach rumble?"

He'd even wave a bloody hand around while singing an annoying tune to boot. "Baby shark, do-do-do!" It was horrendous!

Then it finally reached a point where the shark finally had enough. All energy left its body as it despondently began swimming away. What was wrong with this world?!

Just as it was despairing, Jack threw it a lifeline…

"How about it? I have some very food right here. Want some? I just need you to help me with something." He tempted while dangling the bloodiest, juiciest steak ever.

— Drool! —

Could sharks even drool? This one was for sure! Its eyes were transfixed on the food as if in a trance. When Jack finally threw it over, it couldn't believe its eyes. The food was for real?!

After the suffering it had just suffered, this was bliss! Every bite felt like its mouth was having a party— or something like that. It even seemed to be tearing up slightly.

[Successfully...Half-Tamed a Killer Shark?!]

[The Wild Predator Is Now Friendly...]

[Swimming Ranked UP +++]

[Taming Ranked UP ++]

While the shark was busy devouring the treat, Jack sighed with relief. He couldn't feel his arms, both of them, nor did he have the energy left to swim. Plus, he was utterly out of mana!

Had the shark pushed a little bit longer, it would have actually won that fight out of attrition. Luckily for Jack, he had brought lots of food, enough to distract an army of hungry monsters.

By the side, the eel was still puzzled.

"Psst— But why did he insist on fighting a shark, alone to boot?" He asked the nearby Moon Moon.

"Woo! Woo!" (It's obvious! He beat it fair and square to gain its respect!)

The eel's face couldn't help but twitch. If this was fair and square, then sneaky things were a myth! It wasn't his place to judge, but even then, one detail didn't add up.

"Still, what good will a shark be for an infiltration mission? It can't hide…."

The burly creature couldn't be more conspicuous! From its large body to the gigantic teeth and the thirst for blood… it would draw all gazes.

Jack lowly chuckled in response.

"Who said anything about hiding? We'll simply walk straight through the front door."

"W-what?!" The poor eel cried out.

He officially had no clue what the fuck was going on.

He even started questioning his decision to help the lovers reunite. This guy was definitely crazy! More than he could ever possibly fathom…
