Ocean Master

A few days later…

"What topic do you want me to dwell on today". 

As soon as the communication channel was created, Sebastian smiled as the familiar aged voice of the old toad sounded in his mind.

"Today…" Sebastian paused like he was contemplating his choice before he replied in a solemn tone. "I want to know information about the Sea Kings, you said previously that you knew information about them".

It took some time before the old toad answered. "Yes".

The old toad did not beat around the bush, just like he did in the previous few days, he started and directly went straight to the point.

During the past few days, their conversation engagements already proved how vast of a knowledge that he had. 

In Oceania as a whole, his purple tier strength may only put him at the middle spectrum of strength, but few wild predators could match his knowledge. He was an old monster toad.

"As you may already know or guessed, there are 7 Sea Kings which corresponds to the 7 Origin Seas that form our world".

"In the Blue Sea where I came to life, we call them the 7 Pinnacles!"

"The Ocean King of the Atlantian Domain or the Origin Peak Sea".

"The Necromancy King of the Dungeon of Souls".

"The Beast King of the Blue Sea".

"The Clown King of the Green Mist Sea".

"The Doppelganger and Invisibility King of the Black Veil".

"The Blood King of the Red Cove".

"And the Pugilist King of the Hot Realm".

"These 7 titles belong to 7 predators who are at the absolute pinnacle of the Black tier realm. They have no leader, all 7 of them are proud predators who are undisputed overlords of their various origin seas".

"According to rumors, though they have no leader, the Ocean King was the strongest of the Sea Kings. Of course, that was before his tragic death to the great alliance of the variant humans".

"For centuries, no one could completely understand his unique skill. Rumors said that his Water Transmutation unique skill was related to the power of imagination, but it could never be proved".

"He reigned for centuries in the Origin Peak Sea before the rise of Atlantis. His death cemented Atlantis's reputation as the overlord of this era".

"The Necromancy King is the most notorious of the 7 Sea Kings. His infamous reputation spreads so wide that predators in each of the 7 Origin Seas shudder at the mention of his name, even more than the mention of the Ocean King's name".

"His unique skill is related to souls".

"His greatest battle feat was during the great alliance of the variant humans, where he slaughtered over a million variant humans in one move".

"The souls of his enemies were wiped out, leaving empty body vessels".

"On that day, the Ocean King died, but the Necromancy King's notorious reputation soared, taking the variant humans as his stepping stone".

"Unlike the Ocean King, he was never an upright man. He rampantly slaughtered his way to fame, annihilating civilizations is his best hobby".

"The Beast King of the Blue Sea".

"As the Sea King who lorded over my birth origin sea, I am most familiar with him. Compared to other Sea Kings, his personality is gentler but his strength cannot be questioned, those that did could not live to tell the story".

"His unique ability is related to subduing and commanding sea beasts. Rumors say that his personal army of beasts once fought and emerged victorious against an Atlantian mega fleet".

"The Clown King of the Green Mist Sea has the most low-profile reputation of the 7 Sea Kings, and is also the only female Sea King".

"Addicted to pulling pranks at other predators and variant humans, she was always looked down on but her strength as a Sea King is unquestionable".

"Her unique ability is weird and inexplicable".

"Rumors speak of her greatest battle achievement which made the famous Atlantis sovereign, King Kun to choke and laugh till his death".

"…" Sebastian fought hard to keep a straight face but he did not interrupt, he let the old toad continue.

"The Doppelganger and Invisibility King of the Black Veil".

"The second most notorious of the Sea Kings, nicknamed the Imposter Invisible Demon. His unique ability is simple but dangerous, it makes him invisible and also grants him the ability to endlessly create doppelgangers". 

"He is the only one of the Sea Kings who infiltrated the Atlantian headquarters to wreak havoc after the rise of Atlantis".

"Rumors said that he has infiltrated every predator and variant human civilization in our world, and his doppelgangers are everywhere".

"A famous quote was made by the Pugilist King about him- The Imposter Invisible Demon makes it hard for me to trust people, not even My Little Brother, it may be another doppelganger of the demon".

"The Blood King of the Red Cove".

"He is the most savage and bloodthirsty of the Sea Kings. The Necromancy King is notorious for mass slaughter, while the Blood King is notorious for mass brutal slaughter". 

"He never kills to leave his opponent's corpse; he always kills to eat".

"Rumors say that he needs 10,000 predators flesh every day to curb his bloodthirstiness, he lives in a lair of blood and his unique ability is related to blood". 

"Some call him a Vampire; others call him the Blood Demon".

"The Pugilist King of the Hot Realm".

"Renowned as the Sea King with the fiercest physical battle strength, the Pugilist King is a battle maniac and fanatic".

"Rumor says that he condensed the natural core, the strength core".

"His unique ability is might, granting him tyrannical strength, super thick skin for astounding defense, and bones as hard as the strongest metal discovered by Atlantians, Anatium".

"Rumors also say that he took a bath in the Hot Realm's eternity volcano for over 2 centuries before he came out with the unique skill, might!"

"Ocean Master, that is all that I know about the Sea Kings". 

After an impartation session where Sebastian remained focused throughout, the old toad's voice finally rose a pitch to announce the end of this session.

Throughout, as the old toad explained, Sebastian's mana points drained slowly and now were at a low point. Silently, he deactivated the skill, gave the toad an understanding look before closing his eyes to devour the knowledge.

For the past few days, this was what he and the old toad were engaged in, a relentless impartation of knowledge and information.

The more he imparted, the more the old toad understood some of his master's actions. Such detailed information about the 7 pinnacles, of course, he got them all from his master.

Back then, he thought that his master just imparted them in passing, but after his encounters with Sebastian, he discovered that his master's actions had a hidden meaning. 

"Did you foresee all these?" He muttered to himself.

While the old toad soliloquized to himself, Sebastian rapidly devoured the information. This was what he had been doing for the past few days.

Over the past days, he already got so much knowledge that he needed to meditate to prevent them from evaporating from his head later.

He may be intelligent, but the fact still remained that he now had the brain of a shark, just the soul of a human could not offset this disadvantage.

While he did this, feeding time soon came.

Drip! Drip!

Meat was dropped inside the cage by the guards, but Sebastian did something surprising. After biding his time obediently for over a month, he finally showed his beastly side.

The information about the Sea Kings was the last puzzle piece that he wanted, now he could no longer wait, he was acting.
