After that, they also created three large Frozen Cylinders that would serve as their trump cards. They each held 100 milliliters of his frozen blood. So, if they faced a behemoth of a creature, the large Frozen Cylinders would prove effective.

Of course, that wasn't the only grenades they possessed. The Seamstress also accumulated her Heat Radiance in some coral cylinders she made. They worked similar to the Frozen Cylinder. But, there was a difference here.

The Frozen Cylinder directly used his frozen blood to create a freezing effect. But, the Seamstress didn't possess such blood. So, she used another technique to make bombs out of it. As she already stored intense heat within her coral sword and only unleashed it when necessary to melt objects, she used the same principle here.

She stored a reasonable amount of heat in a coral cylinder and filled it with water. There were two compartments within, a chamber where the water was stored and another block of coral where the heat was retained.

Similar to the Frozen Cylinder, when a pin was pulled, the block would release all its heat, instantly vaporizing the water, causing it to explode. To increase its efficacy, she also added some coral fragments that she had refined within the water. When it exploded, the coral fragments would act as shrapnel. This was almost like a real grenade.

Sadly, Krune took the chance to name it, calling it the Exploding Cylinder. The Seamstress rolled her eyes while accepting the name. As it took too much time to create, the Seamstress only managed to create five for each.

After that, she made arrowheads using her coral that, upon piercing, would emit intense heat, enough to melt flesh. In total, they had prepared an arsenal of weapons while waiting for the bone trees to bulge even more until they looked like miniature versions of the Paddle.

Among their branches were numerous massive fruits, something that would cause a Mutant to become a King. Krune knew that only one among them was real. Based on experience, he was able to guess them accurately by now.

Around three months later, the fruits had ripened. They had taken a considerably longer duration than in the Primary Landmass. The reason might be because they had absorbed too much variety of blood that they weren't able to concentrate one type of essence.

In the Primary Landmass, all the blood only belonged to the Monster Gecko. The rest was only ocean water. So, they were able to concentrate the essence and process faster.

Though finally, once the fruits ripened, Krune heaved a sigh in relief. In the meantime, their arsenal consisted of 20 Frozen Arrows, 20 Heated Arrows, 24 Frozen Cylinders, 6 big Frozen Cylinders, and 10 exploding cylinders. They were equally divided between the two.

Moreover, they also had around 100 normal arrows that they planned to use against the small fry. Overall, they were completely geared up for war.

"Let's pull them up on board," Krune said as he placed three tubs on the boat floor. He scooped out the ocean water and filled them, barely enough for the Motor Fishes to survive but not enough for them to use their abilities and escape.

Krune and the Seamstress then carried three Motor Fishes and placed them in a tub each. The tubs were then shielded by a cage, giving the Motor Fishes no chance to escape in the unlikely event. Though, they were a tameable species from the start and had already been tamed by them.

Upon seeing that the cages worked perfectly, Krune smiled as he plucked out three massive fruits from the bone trees.

"What about the rest of the fruits?" the Seamstress asked in curiosity.

"They're fakes," Krune replied as he placed a fruit in each tub, closing the cage immediately. Without him needing to urge them, the three Motor Fishes jumped on the massive fruits immediately. But, even though he called them massive fruits, they were only half the size of the Motor Fishes.

The fault to be attributed here was the numerous miscellaneous fish blood Krune had made the bone trees absorb. If it had only been the blood of the Motor Fishes, then the massive fruit would have been as big as the Mutated Motor Fishes.

Unfortunately, they didn't have that many Motor Fishes. So, Krune had to work on it differently. In the end, as long as they reached the status as a King, he would be content with them. The Seamstress held three Water Essences in her hands, just in case they failed to handle the stress.

Krune held the Whale Tooth Dagger in his hand as he turned around and looked, noticing that all the three bone trees began to wilt. He smiled, thinking that he had picked the fruits correctly.

As the fruits were only half their body size, all the three Motor Fishes were able to eventually eat them completely. Once they had finished eating, all three Motor Fishes began to squeal in pain as something seemed to be happening in them.

Their bodies turned hotter as their bodies continued to grow bigger. But having seen the same process many times before, Krune realized that they would survive the process, but wouldn't attain the status as a King.

So, he quickly took out all the fruits he had saved up, all thirty of them and dumped 10 in each. The Motor Fishes immediately gobbled each of them up, causing their bodies to become bloated to an exaggerated extent. Even then, they didn't die.

It was thanks to feeding them numerous fruits daily that their bodies got used to the energy levels and became tougher. When the final fruit was swallowed, Krune smiled as he noticed that the process was a success.

He could feel a suffocating presence build up within the Motor Fishes. But unlike before, their presence was no longer tame. As the blood essence of numerous fishes were mixed into them, they were partly affected.

A horn began to grow on their foreheads while their bodies shrunk instead, turning more streamlined. Though, the process would take a couple of days before concluding. So, Krune and the Seamstress began to take action.

They carried each tub carefully and placed it beside the bone tree each, using other methods to constrict the Motor Fishes accordingly to their change in body size. Krune quickly explained the entire process to the Seamstress, telling her to do it herself on the second wilting bone tree.

After a couple of days passed, the entire air surrounding the Paddle was heavy. In the ocean, there weren't any fishes in a hundred-meter radius. This was a result due to the sheer presence exhibited by the three Motor Fishes that had attained King status.

Though, it seemed that they had gone way past their genetic limitations as their bodies looked like they would collapse within a week. It was too unstable. Though, as they finished evolving, Krune tightened the hold on all three Motor Fishes and made an incision on each, connecting their tails to their respective wilting bone tree.

Even though the Motor Fishes struggled to move, the bindings held them rigidly. The water in the tub swirled around as the Motor Fishes tried to break free. With that, Krune and the Seamstress took turns to go around the three boats and ensured they wouldn't be able to break free.

Within an hour, the Motor Fishes lost all strength in their bodies, laying weakly as everything of substance in their bodies was sucked into the bone trees. After some time passed, only their skin was left. And when Krune touched them, they collapsed into dust. "If we had tried to fight them in the water, we wouldn't have been able to even touch them. But with enough planning"

"Indeed." The Seamstress nodded, watching the three bone trees continue to wilt. Almost five days later, they completely finished wilting as there was a gem in each. Krune grabbed them and smiled, giving one to the Seamstress as he told her, "Here you go. I kept my end of the deal. Once you swallow this, you'll get a stronger version of Moving Water."

Storing the third gem in a safe place, Krune placed two tubs on the floor, filling them to the brim with ocean water that he freshly scooped, speaking to the Seamstress, "It's for the best to remain in the ocean water. There is a chance the pain would subsist for a considerable duration, and our body might be damaged."

"Alright." The Seamstress nodded as she sat in the tub, taking in a deep breath as she gazed at the gem. She noticed through the corner of her eye that Krune had already swallowed his, immediately inciting a reaction as his body began to emit a stronger presence. The water in the tub began to tremble, forming minute ripples.

Smiling, she consumed the gem as well, exhibiting a similar phenomenon to Krune.

Krune quickly double-tapped his glabella, summoning his tablet and accepting the prompt that appeared. The Seamstress did the same soon after.

Almost a couple of hours later, Krune grunted, shaking his head as he double-tapped his glabella, gazing at the new row of words that appeared.
