Chapter 547: Kraken, a New Move
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
When this colossal octopus, the Kraken of the Northern Sea, floated on the water’s surface, it cast a massive shadow below.
The Bass Kingdom soldiers standing on the deck were already dumbfounded, their faces filled with shock and fear.
If the warship’s cannons were still intact, they might have had the courage to launch an attack. However, most of the cannons had already exploded, and the remaining ones were as feeble as small water pipes. It seemed unlikely that they could inflict any effective damage on this behemoth.
The Kraken, with eyes like crimson spotlights, scanned these steel constructions floating on the water. It flashed a hint of disgust and anger.
On its way here, it was attacked by more than ten of these metallic creations. Although it eventually submerged them all, it sustained considerable damage from the high-speed projectiles, slowing down its progress.
But now was not the time to deal with these metal constructs. The Kraken turned its attention to the human not far away, detecting an aroma more enticing than food itself—an aroma that it had longed for in its dreams. Greed filled its eyes.
The power of the ocean was within this human!
As long as it could obtain this power, it would gain the capital to command countless sea creatures and become the master of this vast ocean!
It raised one of its tentacles, wielding it like a whip, a simple motion that appeared terrifying due to its immense size, akin to a giant tree crashing down.
Ji Chen remained unfazed, controlling the water to carry himself out of the range of the tentacle’s attack. He conjured hundreds of water-formed weapons without sparing a glance, then casually launched them.
The Kraken’s body was too massive; even casual shots were bound to hit.
To Ji Chen’s amazement, when the hundreds of water-formed weapons, capable of piercing through solid gold and breaking rocks, hit the Kraken’s body, they were all repelled by a see-through layer of scales. All that remained were faint white marks.
This colossal creature had a formidable defense, even on such a colossal body?
This thought only flashed in Ji Chen’s mind briefly. He didn’t have time to dwell on it. He swiftly moved to the side, barely leaving a ten-meter gap between himself and the tentacle. The next moment, the tentacle crashed into the water, creating a massive splash, sending water sprays tens of meters high into the air.
The Kraken’s size was simply colossal, and it was the first time Ji Chen had ever seen such a massive behemoth. Each tentacle had a width of three to four meters, and their lengths reached nearly sixty to seventy meters. Any casual strike formed a vast attack area.
The eight tentacles swung almost without any attack intervals, forming an impenetrable web of attacks. This was enough to make any ordinary enemy despair.
However, Ji Chen maneuvered skillfully between these tentacles, seemingly on the verge of being struck each time but narrowly avoiding them. This performance left the Bass Kingdom soldiers in awe, and they couldn’t help but exclaim in astonishment.
In their hearts, they couldn’t help but pray for him.
If Ji Chen were to be struck down by the tentacle, their situation would truly be hopeless. They didn’t believe that this giant octopus would spare them; to it, they were delectable morsels.
As they watched Ji Chen narrowly escape being slapped to death by the tentacles time and time again, the Kraken finally realized what was happening and let out an angry roar.
This human was toying with it!
Seeing the Kraken’s reaction, a smile appeared on Ji Chen’s face.
After all, sea creatures were still sea creatures, and they would ultimately follow their savage instincts.
His previous evasion without retaliation, which appeared quite miserable, was deliberate. He was observing the Kraken’s attack patterns.
The power of the ocean endowed him with a keen perception. Whether the Kraken swung its tentacles horizontally or struck vertically, whether it attacked to the right or the left, the disturbance of the seawater had already been pre-sensed by him, allowing him to evade in time.
At first, he was very cautious and alert in his mind. After all, the Kraken was the first epic-level enemy he had faced head-on.
With the title of “epic-level,” it should have had a powerful attack method, such as formidable magic or bloodline abilities.
However, during these dozens of minutes of evasion and probing, he realized a problem.
This big guy seemed to only know how to use its tentacles to attack in a straightforward and brutish manner. It was just too stupid!
If the Kraken knew what Ji Chen was thinking, it would probably argue righteously. It only needed its massive body and eight swinging tentacles to flatten all kinds of enemies. Why bother evolving other attack abilities?
After completely understanding the Kraken’s attack pattern, Ji Chen lost patience with further entanglement.

After narrowly evading another powerful tentacle strike, he retreated several hundred meters away.
His deep-sea dragon scale robe glowed faintly, and three fully blue, approximately ten-meter-long elemental water dragons appeared abruptly, soaring towards the Kraken.
[Water Dragon Summoning (Summons three elemental water dragons with 50% of the user’s power, capable of independent combat)]
Having possessed half of Ji Chen’s strength referred to half of his power in the magical sense, not the power of the ocean. It pertained to the Lord’s innate talent for this more profound form of power.
Three elemental water dragons spewed water arrows, causing obvious discomfort to the Kraken. Even the speed of its swinging tentacles increased. However, the elemental water dragons flapped their wings with agility, evading the attacks, and soared into the sky beyond the reach of the tentacles. They continuously spewed water arrows, making the Kraken very uncomfortable..
