Raging Destruction Squid, Emperor Emperor
* * *
IKAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!
The white tentacle that attacked Zaratopu its owner appeared on the sea while letting out an intimidating scream.
It was a squid.
A super, giant squid that covered its body surface with barnacles like armor!!
<Aah! That guy is!?>
Extra-sama, noticing something upon seeing the giant squid, shouts!
Whats wrong!?
Do you know about that guy!?
<Yes I know, without a doubt! I have seen this squid before in the Fishing Gods isekai reincarnation broadcast!>
W-What did you say!?
<That guy is the legendary giant squid that is said to have destroyed a maritime nation!>
The legendary giant squid!?
<It has been feared as the king of squid for at least 500 years!>
The king of squid!?
<The number of fishing boats it has destroyed by ramming with its huge body is countless! It has a history of once eradicating torch fishing from this world!>
The fishermens nemesis!?
<Its name is Raging Destruction Squid, Emperor Emperor!!>
I see that huge body that guy is the other one of the demons Zaratopu spoke of!
IKAAAAA!!
Perhaps due to the significant damage from being slammed into the sea surface, Zaratopu, drifting among the waves, cant move properly.
Aiming at that Great Sea Serpent, the giant squid raised one of its huge tentacles high in the sky and swung it down with all its might!
Zaratopu, watch out!!
I abandoned my attack on the giant shrimp and instinctively gouged out the carapace at my feet, throwing it at the giant squids tentacle!
Ikaaaa!?
The carapace I threw successfully hit the giant squids tentacle.
That elastic tentacle absorbed the impact and seemed to minimize the damage but as intended, its trajectory was shifted.
The giant squids attack missed.
It slammed into the empty sea surface next to where Zaratopu was floating.
DO PAAAHN!!
With a tremendous impact sound, spray rises high into the sky!
For now, thats good!
Zaratopu is safe!
Shushuuuushuuu!!!
Oh no!?
However, the cover fire for Zaratopu.
By doing this, I ended up exposing a big opening.
And the ones who didnt miss that opening were not the barnacles!
!!
The barnacles clinging in large numbers to the giant shrimps body must have sensed through some means that my Magic Slash Threads defense had become lax as I diverted my magical power resources to the cover fire for Zaratopu.
They all took advantage of that opening at once, extending their cirri to wrap around my body and started restraining me!
If it were one or two, I could forcibly tear them off and escape but there are just too many!
My entire body is tied up, and I cant move!
Ah.
<Emi!? Aah, Emi!! W-What should we do!? What should we do!?>
Extra-sama has completely fallen into a panic.
Hmm, I cant really expect useful advice.
<Why are you so calm!?>
Im not calm.
Im also quite flustered.
But you know, Extra-sama.
Right now, I can see it.
In other words, you can see it too.
Look closely at the sea.
<Eh!?>
PYURURURURUUU!!!
What was heard at that moment was a high-pitched cry.
But its different from the screams Ive heard many times before.
Its the war cry of someone who has made up their mind!!
<Ah, thats!>
Thats right!
What we had captured in our field of vision!
It was!
EBIIIIIIIIIII!!
IKAAAAAAA!!
Dodging all the pursuit attacks of the giant shrimps claws and the giant squids tentacles, the one who came charging towards us at a furious speed!
Its the Great Sea Serpent Zaratopu, who has regained its breath!!
<<<Anegoooo!!!>>>
A Telepathy reaches my mind.
Hearing that desperate voice, I somehow felt extremely happy.
Ah, I.
have gained a reliable underling!
TL Note: Ebi and Ika are actually the Japanese words for shrimp and squid respectively. So these monsters are literally just screaming SHRIIIMP or SQUIIID. I decided not to translate that way since its more realistic for them to be able to scream Japanese syllables rather than a constructed word in English.
