  For a long time, Sebastian has been observing the battle situation in the seamount while constantly keeping to his decision to remain still and watch calmly.

  While he observed, his mind was as active as a horse as he calculated at a pace that even exceeded world-famous scientists in his previous world.

  Perhaps, other beasts would blunder at this but his knowledge of Mathematics from his previous world finally found a means to play a huge role in helping him out of this predicament now.

  From what Tonado explained to him about sea inheritances, he already had a general idea of how the Sea King Inheritance struggle would play out.

  The greatest obstacle against his chances of benefiting was of course Atlantis. The Black Mamba Division Fleet was powerful, but at the back of his mind, he knew that this was not all that the rumored overlord, Atlantis could offer.

  Considering the level of importance that they placed on unique skills as he observed from his time in captivity, an intelligent race like Atlantis would not make the clumsy mistake of underestimating the allure of a Sea King Inheritance.

  Even if it was not showing now, he was 90% sure that Atlantis definitely had a hidden card that they were confident in to secure this inheritance.

  To overcome the outrageous might of this overlord race, with his puny strength and his little allies, he had no choice but to rely on his only advantage that he had from earth, his knowledge, and experience.

  Through his knowledge, he knew that Atlantis was not his only enemy.

  The appearance of the Space Beast was an unexpected interruption that he did not expect, this was why it was important to have contingencies in any plan.

  The Space Beast, the stray purple tier predators, most especially the Speed Demon were great obstacles, but the greatest obstacle apart from the Atlantis army to Sebastian was the Rogue Snake Overlord.

  This was a terrifying Red tier predator that lived in this ocean volcano region and was the alpha predator of this whole region.

  Sebastian knew about this beast from Tonado.

  He knew that this Rogue Snake Overlord would definitely be attracted by the Sea King Inheritance, most especially when the inheritance itself didn't play nice, shamelessly attracting beasts from all sides.

  He knew that sooner or later, no matter how deep the depths of this ocean volcano were, this terrifying Red tier predator would soon arrive.

  Sebastian was not as strong as the Atlantis army, so his plan to counter them was to place another strong opponent against them. The only candidate that was originally in his mind was the Rogue Snake Overlord.

  He planned to fight and try to fish in the chaos that ensued.

  From the chaos when the Atlantian forces would battle against the Rogue Snake Overlord, he planned to erupt and strike then.

  Everything did not go according to plan though, the Atlantian Division Fleet proved stronger than normal as they succeeded in stabilizing the situation despite the overwhelming number of beasts that they were against.

  At the last moment, when he thought that his plan was screwed, the Space Beast appeared in such a grand manner. 

  Despite the powerful display by the Space Beast with the legendary pinnacle bloodline, his hopes were still crushed by Captain Omega's sheer power.

  Captain Omega proved stronger than expected, almost killing the Space Beast in the end after a fierce battle. 

  Killing the Space Beast would have been a huge change in Sebastian's predictions, but this didn't happen as the 3 strange silhouettes appeared. 

  Sebastian recognized the Speed Demon, having heard of this terrifying Racoon from the blabbering Tosh previously.

  The 2 warships were what he didn't recognize but thankfully, he had allies. Only Old Mak, the predator who had once roamed the outside world knew of these 2 terrifying beast organizations.

  Without mincing words, Old Mak instantly revealed all that he knew about the 2 organizations to Sebastian and the others.

  After listening to Old Mak, Sebastian's brain was filled with more ideas.

  Since the Rogue Snake was not here, why not turn these 2 warships with a powerful background to the source of the chaos that he longed for? 

  Sebastian only needed 2 seconds to decide on acting on it.

  The Speed Demon entering the inheritance ground first succeeded in agitating the beasts, then the clash of the 2 beast organizations against the Atlantian Division Fleet brought the chaos that Sebastian longed for.

  He may be correct, the Atlantian soldiers may have backup plans, but if he continued cowering, he would not gain anything from this inheritance.

  Only the risk-takers were qualified to gain big.

  "Let's move!"

  As soon as Sebastian gave this order, Old Mak and the other predators swam up from the underground hole where their bodies were huddled in.

  Anthony, the Champion Digger puffed in excitement.

  The elite team that Sebastian gathered was not the only one who received the order, under Elder Dangle's meticulous control, the sound was transmitted wide to where Elder Marble hid with the reserve force.

  "We are finally about to move!" The Lizard Lord's face became serious as his predatory eyes narrowed dangerously, his deadly tail swished back and forth.

  He turned his head around to observe his children, his brothers, and his subordinates, fellow Draconic Lizards that were ready to put their life on the line again for the family.

  This was a do-or-die affair!

  "I must help the Ocean Master secure his second unique skill!" Tonado vowed as his terrifying tongue adaptation stuck out, licking his rough lips wildly.

  "It is finally here!" 

  Elder Marble sighed before his face became serious the next moment, the surrounding few meters around him suddenly turned heavier as gravity increased.

  This was this Elder's Gravity Earth domain passive effect; the Gravity Field!

  As soon as the gravity field emerged, Elder Marble roared.

  "MOVE!" 

  …
Boom!

  The Atlantian Division Fleet was struggling.

  Captain Omega, Lieutenant Lookman, and Lieutenant Zorro all personally held the fort, but the Black Mamba Division Fleet at its strongest state was still showing signs of crumbling apart in the face of this terrifying assault.

  The stray mutated beasts that were attracted to the inheritance were all random elements, and random elements were better-taken care of with order.

  The situation would be in control with just these stray beasts as enemies despite the occasional purple tier beasts that joined the fray, but the warships of the Toad Alliance and the Turtle Confraternity were something else entirely.

  Like the Atlantian Division Fleet, this was an organized force of predators.

  The 2 warships that the Toads and Turtles came with could not fight to a standstill against the 50+ warships of the Atlantian Division Fleet, but it was not their intention to battle with warships originally.

  All they came here for was the inheritance, and they brought along more than enough elite soldier Toads and Turtles for this mission.

  At this moment, these Toads and Turtles gave the Atlantian soldiers a run for their money. These beasts were veteran killers, they were all deadly predators.

  All the mutated beasts already recognized the Atlantians as their number 1 enemy, so most of them ignored other beasts and focused on battling the Atlantians which at this moment worked in the favor of the 2 beast organizations.

  The 2 organizations' beasts easily turned the stray beasts to canon fodder predators, they used them to tire out the Atlantians while their own army was the main sword that penetrated the Atlantians' blockade.

  In just 2 minutes, 2 mutated Toads and 3 mutated Turtles succeeded in making it through the blockade and entering inside the inheritance ground.

  The Atlantian Division Fleet was more than capable of sending their soldiers through the entrance already, but for some reason, they all held back like they were waiting for something.

  Amidst the chaotic battle, a new group of powerful mutated beasts suddenly appeared again, this time directly from underground.

  Crunch! Crunch!

  Old Mak did not show any mercy, they deliberately emerged at the heart of the Atlantian Division Fleet and started wreaking havoc.

  Old Mak bit and separated 3 Atlantian heads from their bodies in just a second as blood flowed like rain. While he did this, the other predators arrived as they wreaked havoc through the heart of the Atlantian army.

  From outside, the countless stray beasts and the elite predators of the Toad Alliance and Turtle Confraternity were there. While inside, there was the powerful Old Mak and his group of elite predators.

  Purple tier predators, especially those as powerful as Old Mak and co were not to be underestimated, not even by Atlantians.

  A bloodbath started among the Atlantians immediately.

  Their soldiers died every second but they stubbornly held to their ideals, fighting a defensive battle with their blockade while sending no one inside the inheritance entrance like they no longer gave a damn about the inheritance.

  No reinforcements came. It was like, they really had no reinforcement.

  At this moment, almost half of the surviving toads and turtles of the 2 beast organizations already entered the inheritance ground which said a lot about the power of these 2 organizations.

  Even Elder Shine succeeded in entering the inheritance entrance.

  It was at this moment that Sebastian came out. He didn't come out with the others previously due to his fear for some sensitive matters, but seeing the predicament of the Atlantians, he finally had the guts to come out.

  [You have activated skill: Triple Reverse Swim!]

  [You have activated skill: Advanced Dash!]

  The enormous Megalodon finally made its debut on the battlefield!

  Shockingly, as soon as Sebastian made his debut, the top of this seamount revealed cracks the next moment as a huge illusion magic formation was destroyed from the inside.

  Every beast was shocked since they were unaware of this magic formation. Even Captain Omega was shocked, he didn't know of this. 

  As soon as illusion disappeared, reality appeared.

  Over 100 Atlantian warships came into view.

  Captain Omega's eyes widened the next moment on the sight.

  "The Annihilation Division Fleet!"
