Chapter 1041: Weird Ripple

Without its terrifying power to propel them, and in the absence of a large-scale earthquake beneath the waves, a tsunami could not have formed so easily. The only possible explanation was that the two-headed giant crab had started feeding again.

"Oh my god, Boss, look! How are we going to deal with such high waves?"

Googles and the others wore expressions of terror. Xu Yang was preparing to take action at any moment when, suddenly, an incredibly beautiful figure appeared beside the Black Pearl. It was the Banshee Queen, who had returned.

The main artifact she held in her palm was the Boundless Ocean, the very marine artifact Xu Yang had temporarily lent her.

As expected, the powerful aura of the Boundless Ocean quickly spread, completely enveloping the Black Pearl's hull and creating an incredibly transparent aquamarine protective barrier. This barrier successfully withstood the assault of the second massive wave.

"Master, I hope I'm not too late?" The Banshee Queen smiled, looking at Xu Yang on the deck. The rest of the Glory Squad members cheered excitedly; the Banshee Queen's arrival had undoubtedly perfectly neutralized the threat from the giant wave.

However, judging by the current situation, several more powerful waves were likely imminent. As one of the top powerhouses who had lived in the Endless Sea for countless years, the Banshee Queen naturally understood the two-headed giant crab's habits.

Therefore, she did not immediately land on the deck and cease her movements; instead, she continued to gather her strength, preparing to meet the assault of the third massive wave.

As expected, one towering giant wave after another appeared. When the eighth wave finally arrived, the entire sea area within a hundred miles around the Black Pearl suffered an unimaginable assault from these terrifying, sky-obscuring winds and waves.

Xu Yang's Black Pearl, however, remained completely intact. Thanks to so many people personally guarding it and the Boundless Ocean main artifact's unparalleled control over sea waves, they finally managed to dissipate this last, incredibly powerful, devouring wave.

Unfortunately, the marine creatures in the deep sea where the two-headed giant crab was hidden, targeted by the eight waves, were far less fortunate. By now, they had likely all been swallowed by the two-headed giant crab.

"Holy crap! That's terrifying! Is this the power of a peak Purple-level mid-tier marine overlord? Boss, if you made me fight him one-on-one, even a hundred of me wouldn't be a match for such a behemoth."

Googles couldn't help but swallow. Before Xu Yang could retort, the stunningly beautiful maid beside him immediately shot down the stout man.

"Stop fantasizing. Only Lord A Yang can contend with a powerhouse of this level. With your strength, let alone a hundred of you, even a thousand or ten thousand of you would simply be a mouthful for that two-headed giant crab, easily dealt with as a batch of food. Oh no, I seem to have overlooked a premise: you'd need to lose a few dozen pounds from your obese body. Otherwise, that two-headed giant crab might choke trying to swallow you."

The beautiful maid's teasing made the Glory Squad burst into laughter, especially Xue'er and the others, who laughed the happiest. Googles was already used to the team making fun of him, but this atmosphere always filled the Glory Squad with an incredibly harmonious, family-like warmth.

It's worth mentioning that Whirlpool Wu Lang, who was originally as cold as an iceberg, now occasionally showed a smile within the team.

As he listened to everyone's teasing, his cold heart gradually began to melt, and he attempted to continuously bridge the distance between himself and each member of the Glory Squad. Everything seemed to be developing in a positive direction.

Only the assault of these towering giant waves disrupted this established order. Just as everyone thought that after the eight waves dissipated, the two-headed giant crab would quickly leave on its own and dive into the deep sea, an unexpected scene unfolded once more.

This time, the two-headed giant crab was not so easily deterred. Instead, it suddenly emerged from the surface of the Endless Sea, using its enormous head to calmly observe its surroundings. It quickly locked onto the faint, thread-like light at the end of the world, and the entirely black Pearl warship also caught its attention at that moment.

"How can it be this ship again? If I'm not mistaken, several hundred years ago, this vessel entered the inner domain of the Endless Sea and was later said to have successfully landed on Demon Dragon Island. Why was this ship able to be reactivated after several hundred years?"

The two-headed giant crab, pondering these questions, quickly approached the Black Pearl. Xu Yang's perception was incredibly keen; he immediately felt an unparalleled powerful aura locking onto the Black Pearl's hull.

Realizing that danger was imminent, Xu Yang no longer hesitated. He immediately asserted his authority as the undisputed leader of the Glory Squad, intending to face off against this true marine overlord.

"All of you, stay on the ship. No matter what happens, do not leave the Black Pearl without my command. I will handle this battle personally. Do not try to get too close to me. If anything truly happens to the Black Pearl, it will be a huge loss for us."

Every command Xu Yang issued was strictly followed by the Glory Squad members, because they knew very well that Xu Yang was the only leader who would never deceive their trust.

Establishing a relationship of mutual trust and reliance within a team is incredibly difficult, but fortunately, Xu Yang's Glory Squad had achieved such a special understanding long ago.

Seeing everyone standing obediently and properly on the Black Pearl's deck, Xu Yang felt no further worry. He took to the air directly with Whirlpool Wu Lang, heading straight for the two-headed giant crab's location.

"Boss, why are there suddenly two light-like glows on the sea surface?" Whirlpool Wu Lang asked Xu Yang, genuinely bewildered, but the answer he received was astonishing.

"Those aren't lights. How could such fire-attribute power fluctuations exist in the Endless Sea? There's only one possibility: what we're seeing aren't lanterns, but the two enormous pupils unique to the two-headed giant crab."

When Xu Yang said this with a grave expression, Whirlpool Wu Lang beside him was so terrified he began to doubt his perception, yet still couldn't believe it. Across the entire Yingzhou Continent, probably no beast emperor possessed such an enormous physical body!
