Chapter 963: Southwestern Sea
?
After leaving the Western Sea, Vaan made a quick stop at the Red Dragon n to drop off more samples of Golden Dragon Blood.
At the same time, he also made arrangements for the UN to strengthen its border defenses, especially the Great Ratholos Empire. Due to its special rtionship with the Sea Serpent n, it did not take him much time and effort to subjugate it.
In fact, the sea serpent leader took the initiative to swear allegiance upon seeing him. It was as if it had been expecting his visit. Moreover, the sea serpent leader''s determination was even reinforced after seeing him in person.
No doubt, it had sensed his Boundless Sea and Sky Aura-or Conqueror''s Aura, ording to the marine ns.
Nevertheless, the Sea Serpent n was among the weaker marine ns and wasn''t even the actual ruler of the whole Eastern Sea. It only upied the Eastern Sea''s westernmost sea region and was a subordinate n to the Razorfang Serpent n.
However, due to its serpentine rtionship with the Razorfang Serpent n, the Sea Serpent n enjoyed a better position in the Eastern Sea than most marine ns under its rule.
Unfortunately, its knowledge was quite limited to the Eastern Sea. It also rarely contacted the Razorfang Serpent n.
The Razorfang Serpent n just let it be.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
As such, Vaan tasked the Sea Serpent n to initiate contact in his stead to see if it could locate the Razorfang Serpent n''s main den or collect information on the other inner sea regions.
In the meantime, Vaan traveled to the Southwestern Sea to meet the Fighting Dolphin n. It was a strategic location for gauging and understanding the situation of the Southern Sea.
Vaan wasn''t too worried about the Celestial Kingdomunching a sudden attack from the Northwestern Sea or Northern Sea.
After all, he still had the three Dreamcatchers to hold the fort.
Furthermore, the northernmost region of the continent was also cut off by the ever-growing Dimensional Crack.
With his spiritual connection to Valefor, it was a simple task to summon the Great Devils or their armies to defend the northern and eastern directions in a short time.
Vaan was aware of the concept that the tallest trees that stuck out of the forest would weather the most winds. As such, he didn''t quite approve of Valefor bing the Heavenly Devil of Gehenna.
However, ignoring the risks to his safety, he had to admit that the position also saved him a lot of time and offered many conveniences and benefits.
As such, he could afford to prioritize the Southwestern Sea''s trips over the other Inner Seas.
...
In the Southwestern Sea, Vaan found the shallow waters to be much clearer and brighter. The sunlight prated more deeply into the seawater than the Western Sea.
The quartz sand and crystal corals also illuminated the sea floor with pretty colors.
Simple marine life, which was usually at the bottom of the food chain, thrived in incredible numbers. Swarms of shrimp openly cleaned the sea floors while schools of fish swam above freely.
They didn''t seem to have any natural predators in this local sea region.
The danger level of the Southwestern Sea was surprisingly low. To humans, it was like a fisherman''s paradise.
Of course, this would bepletely true if one were to ignore the existence of the Fighting Dolphin n.
When Vaan spotted his Fighting Dolphin, he waspletely dumbfounded by what he saw despite his mental preparation.
The Fighting Dolphin was rxing in a bed of soft coral, enjoying the purifying therapy of several cleaner shrimp. The cleaner shrimp didn''t just clean and massage its body; they also fed it with protein-rich seaweed.
Nevertheless, it wasn''t surprising to see the Fighting Dolphin disying its intelligence through leisure indulgence.
What was truly shocking was its overwhelmingly muscr appearance with several human traits. It was like the product of a fusion between a bottlenose dolphin and a body-building gym freak of a human: a dolphin body with human limbs attached.
If someone told him the Fighting Dolphin didn''t have any human bloodline, Vaan definitely wouldn''t believe it.
A desperate person must have fucked a dolphin in history to give birth to the Fighting Dolphin n''s existence.
Although Vaan didn''t know if the male human''s testosterone was so strong that it overcame the barrier of crossbreeding, he certainly knew he wasn''t keen on looking deeper into the
matter.
Nevertheless, it could have even been the other way around.
After all, dolphins were also known to be sexual predators of the sea. They had records of disying sexual violence across species.

After looking at the Fighting Dolphin''s information, Vaan felt more speechless regarding the Fighting Dolphin n.
The Fighting Dolphins seemed like bigger fitness freaks than the Body Refiners of the Great
Ratholos Empire.
Nevertheless, while Vaan was studying the Fighting Dolphin called Andaman Weit, thetter soon noticed his presence as well.
At first, it was just a casual nce over.
However, Andaman''s gaze immediately became fixated on vaan the moment he locked onto him. He couldn''t look away. His eyes soon glimmered like he was looking at a perfectly
sculpted piece of art.
Vaan felt a slight chill as he received its feverish admiration as it rushed over for a closer
inspection.
If he didn''t have the Boundless Sea and Sky Aura to make the Fighting Dolphin respectful, it would have likely touched him all over as it admired his muscles.
"Wow! You are incredible, Bro! How are these densely-packed myofibril fibers even formed? How is such density even possible? Are you really human? What''s your workout secret, Bro?
Can you teach me?"
Andaman harped around Vaan excitedly.
He didn''t seem to mind that Vaan was a human in the slightest and acted like they had been
best friends for many years.
Nevertheless, Andaman suddenly snapped out of his excited state when he saw Vaan''s frown. He became self-aware of the unsurpassable chasm between their strengths and couldn''t help but feel nervous for acting too casual with such a strong person when they weren''t familiar.
In fact, he was shocked he could act with such boldness. It was like he had been possessed. "Err... Is there something I can help you with, Your Excellency?"
"Can you take me your n?"
"dly!"
