As per Liu Yong's instructions, Overlord stealthily trailed behind the enormous shark, maintaining a safe distance.
Despite its imposing size, the giant shark's eyesight was not sharp enough to spot the Overlord tailing it.
It appeared to be searching for food and, in the process, had already killed several large fish, including one of its kind, a shark measuring four to five meters in length.
"Overlord, it's time to make your move. Take down that giant shark for me," Liu Yong instructed.
Overlord had been waiting for this moment for a considerable time, remaining patient while trailing the shark, resisting the urge to attack prematurely.
"Master, I've been waiting for this. I'll strike as soon as you give me the signal," responded Overlord.
Without hesitation, Overlord charged toward the giant shark with a colossal 20-meter-long spear, seizing the opportunity for which Liu Yong had been waiting.
The colossal shark eventually caught sight of Overlord and immediately turned to face the attacker head-on, perhaps taken aback that a sea creature would dare to challenge its authority.
As the giant shark approached Overlord, it took a moment to register the sight before it.
The creature resembled the enormous snapping turtle it had battled ten days ago but appeared much more extensive.
The shark pondered whether this was the same turtle from before, but it was noticeably bigger by several laps.
The snapping turtle, Bawang, has grown significantly in the past ten days.
Bawang weighed over 50 tons and had increased in size by two to three times, almost doubling its previous size.
The two aquatic titans faced each other, each sizing up the other.
Overlord, in particular, was impressed by the lack of pressure he now felt when confronting the giant shark.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe sensed significant stress the last time they met, but it was notably absent now.
Without warning, Bawang charged toward the giant shark with its massive spear, covering a distance of several hundred meters in a matter of seconds.
The turtle's increased speed was evident compared to its weight of 30 tons ten days ago.
The giant shark was caught off guard, and upon seeing the spearheading towards it, it instinctively sensed the danger and quickly dodged to the side, barely avoiding the attack.
However, the shark still needed to be finished. It flicked its tail, aiming to strike Bawang with its massive size.
The last time they had fought, Overlord had been hit twice by the shark's tail, and he knew the sensation was far from pleasant.
Bawang felt as though a mountain had struck him.
Bawang quickly reacted, dodging to the side to avoid the incoming tail. The shark's attack missed its target, and the first round ended in a stalemate.
How could the Overlord possibly stand a chance against a giant shark?
After failing at the shark with a massive spear, he faced the shark's tail, sweeping towards him too quickly to maneuver the spearhead.
Despite the resistance of the water, the Overlord swung one front paw with such speed that it left an afterimage.
The giant shark had no time to dodge, so the Overlord's sharp front claws slashed effortlessly across the shark's tail, tearing apart the flesh and causing the sea to turn bright red.
The giant shark was furious and retaliated by opening its enormous mouth and lunging toward the Overlord.
However, the Overlord had already turned his spearhead and grabbed the large spear to meet the attack, pointing it directly at the shark's mouth.
With a cry of "Give me a stab!" the tip of the giant spear collided heavily with the shark's teeth, knocking several of them off directly.
The Overlord then used his Laku Destroy technique, plunging the sharp spearhead at least one meter deep into the shark's flesh.
Despite the shark's struggles and attempts to escape, the Overlord was relentless in his pursuit, quickly closing the distance between them and stabbing the shark again with his giant spear.
Though the giant shark seemed to sense the danger and understand that its speed was no match for the Overlord's, it ran for its life into the depths of the sea, barely escaping the Overlord's thrust.
At a depth of 200 meters, the underwater environment was still relatively bright, but visibility plummeted beyond 400 to 500 meters, and the darkness became nearly impenetrable.
In such an environment, the giant shark was a formidable opponent to pursue, and without superior perception, it would be almost impossible to track down.
Nevertheless, the Overlord relentlessly chased after the shark, utilizing the obstacles on the seabed to its advantage, even as the distance between them steadily decreased.
"Hey, what is that!" exclaimed Bawang as he suddenly caught sight of a sunken ship lying on the seafloor.
But his companion reminded him,
"Don't lose focus, we're after the shark, not treasure."
Realizing the situation's urgency, Bawang quickly memorized the sunken ship's location and pressed forward.
But the giant shark was no easy target. As Bawang focused on the sunken ship, the shark widened the distance between them, nearly reaching the limit of Bawang's keen perception.
Realizing that he could lose the shark if he didn't act fast, Bawang abandoned his fascination with the sunken ship and resumed his pursuit.
The chase was a spectacular event that caught the attention of many sea creatures.
The Overlord and the giant shark were vast and dangerous, and the other sea creatures instinctively kept their distance.
After several minutes of intense pursuit, the giant shark began to tire, while the Overlord, with its superior endurance, showed no signs of slowing down.
Eventually, the giant shark gave up running and prepared to fight.
"Prepare yourself, Overlord," roared the vast shark. "You may have caught up to me, but you won't defeat me!"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe battle was fierce but ultimately one-sided.
The Overlord emerged unscathed, while the giant shark was impaled by the Overlord's massive spear, ending its life.
Thus concluded the epic underwater chase and battle, with the Overlord emerging victorious.
Overlord's victory over the giant shark had left him feeling relieved and overjoyed.
He knew that defeating such a formidable creature was no small feat, especially considering the battle's depths.
The fact that he had emerged unscathed was a testament to his strength and tenacity.
As soon as he had caught his breath, Overlord immediately reported his success to Liu Yong, his master, and benefactor.
Liu Yong, who had been monitoring the situation from a distance, breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing the news.
He was proud of Overlord's accomplishment and praised him for a well-done job.
But the excitement didn't stop there.
Bawang, still brimming with adrenaline, shared some unexpected news with his master.
While chasing the giant shark, he stumbled upon a sunken ship on the seabed. Liu Yong couldn't believe Bawang's luck - he had been searching for a sunken ship for a long time, and now one had seemingly fallen into his lap.
The discovery of a sunken ship was a treasure hunter's dream.
It could yield valuable artifacts and treasures that fetch a hefty price on the market. Liu Yong's excitement was palpable as he realized this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
As he contemplated the possibilities, Liu Yong couldn't help but feel grateful for the team of skilled divers he had assembled.
The thrill of the hunt was addictive, and Liu Yong knew he would never be satisfied until he uncovered all the treasures beneath the ocean's surface.
For now, though, he basked in the glory of his latest victory and looked forward to the riches that awaited him in the sunken ship.
