Apocalypse in Water 120

Episode 120

I dived in and hid behind the remains of a submerged building to watch what was going on.

But what is that?

A dome-like, round roof was visible from the nearby debris.

Is that a lecture hall? I don’t think I saw a round roof like that last time I was here.

I’ve been farming around here a couple of times when I was in the apartment.

But there was nothing particularly unusual.

Because things like currents, typhoons, and earthquakes occur frequently, the underwater terrain changes every day, just like a new city under development.

It could be that an auditorium that was buried deep in the rubble rose up, or that the gymnasium of a school in the Guro area floated down.

But the surface is a bit unique for a school auditorium.

The roof had a metallic black sheen, like an oiled pot lid with a hexagonal pattern.

Did you do something like a urethane coating for waterproofing?

I wanted to go and check it out, but I decided to go after the battle because I might get caught if I moved.

A few pirates dove deep into the water, but they couldn’t even come near where I was.

They circled around near the surface, eventually running out of breath and coming up to the surface.

The bearded pirate asked the pirates who had come up.

“Did you find it?”

“There was nothing, Vice-Chief.”

“No way. So the kids who fell into the water were self-harming? Go back into the water again.”

“I just came up here. Can I rest for a moment before I go in?”

“You guys look down on me because I’m the vice-captain, right? Huh! Do you think a dead captain would take care of you guys? The captain, who doesn’t know how to do anything properly except swim, ended up burning down the barge and burning to death. And you still won’t listen to me? Fine. I’ll officially report to this butler a list of guys who don’t listen to me. This butler said that anyone who goes against the chain of command will be put on a plank.”

The bearded pirate was getting angry and harassing the pirates who had just come up.

Now that the captain is dead, I guess that bearded man is the commander.

One of the easiest ways to take down an enemy is to hit their head.

It looks like the beard doesn’t know how to command properly, so maybe it’s better to just leave it alone.

A pirate said, at the urging of the beard.

“Hey, Captain. Isn’t that a monster, not a human, attacking from underwater?”

“Monster? Are you talking about a sea monster?”

“Yes. If you’re not a sea monster, how can you cut off a person’s leg without leaving a trace?”

The other pirates chimed in.

“Yeah! It must be a sea monster. You saw that horned tuna that was eating people last time! It was fast enough to impale people with its horns and run away. You didn’t even notice it at first.”

“Then what should I do? Should I just let him do this to me?”

“What should I do, what should I do! I should leave the water purifiers here and run away quickly.”

“Why a water purifier?”

“You idiot! Then the sea monster will eat the water purifiers and we won’t have to worry about it.”

“Oh! That’s right. Hey, water purifiers, if you take even one step from here, we won’t stay still. Got it?”

The pirates threatened people by wielding harpoons and swords.

Then he tried to run away towards the pirate ship’s fleet.

Some people, whose health was already quite poor due to urine production, were sinking because they had no strength left to swim.

The beard shouted, either because he didn’t believe the sea monster or because he thought his authority was paramount.

“You little kids! I gave the order. Then you have to follow it.”

I could see the pirates’ eyes changing above the water.

It seemed as if they were trying to push the vice-chairman away, thinking that he was driving them to their deaths.

In fact, several pirates were seen hiding swords behind their backs.

Well then, I guess I’ll have to use it before my beard falls off.

“Where did you get the courage to go to the head of the… … .”

Before he could finish speaking, his beard sank into the sea as if it had fallen into a sinkhole.

“Hey! What’s going on? Where did the assistant manager go?”

The pirates were in an uproar at the unexpected turn of events.

“Vice Captain, did you go in to catch the sea monster yourself?”

“No way! The assistant captain? That guy can’t swim well. That’s why he was yelling at us to go in.”

“Then, what is it really?”

At that moment, the assistant captain suddenly rose from the water.

“Hey. What a surprise! What are you doing, Vice President?”

The captain did not answer the pirates’ questions.

He rolled his eyes as if he had lost his mind and swayed his body like a reed in the wind.

“What’s wrong with that guy? That guy!”

“Isn’t that crazy?”

Then, a pirate shouted.

“It’s a sea monster!”

“A sea monster? What are you talking about all of a sudden?”

“Vice Captain, that guy’s leg was bitten by a sea monster, and the vicious sea monster is playing with its prey. Look over there! The waves are rising. The sea monster must have bitten the vice captain’s leg and is shaking it wildly.”

Where he pointed, waves were forming like a whirlpool.

In fact, the waves were created by me waving my hands in the West Sea Dongjeong Jinkyung technique.

Before that, he first pulled the captain into the water and then hit the back of his neck, making him lose consciousness.

And then, looking at the timing, he lifted him up and shook him.

I rotated the Binggle assistant.

The vice-captain’s head and waist were bent back, and his arms were fluttering weakly.

The pirates screamed in fear at the sight of the zombie-like captain.

“Eww! It’s a sea monster!”

Without saying who would go first, the pirates began to run away.

Among them, the guys tried to use the people called water purifiers as shields.

“Go quickly, you water purifier bastards!”

The pirates threatened people with weapons and pushed them towards the rotating buoy.

Then he started to swim away in the direction of the pirate ship.

Because the barges and fire boats were positioned far back, the pirate fleet noticed the accident only after the fire had already raged.

They tried to send a rescue ship right away, but since a ship can’t go backwards like a car, it took quite some time just to turn the bow.

I dived underwater and followed the fleeing pirates.

Even though I had the assistant captain with me, I was able to quickly catch up with them because I used the West Sea Dongjeong Jinkyung light attack method.

We saw speedboats coming towards us.

These guys and those guys must not meet.

Because before I find out who this butler is, I must not give him an excuse to reveal my identity.

I raised my beard in front of the fleeing pirates.

The pirates were startled by the sudden appearance of the captain and turned around.

Then he swam fiercely to the other side of the speedboat.

The people called water purifiers also tried to run away, but they did not have the strength left to run away.

Just then, something rose from the water near them.

“Wow! It’s a monster!”

People screamed, thinking that a sea monster had appeared.

The pirates who had been slowing down heard a scream from behind them, and when they saw the pot lid, they were startled and started splashing with all their might again.

“It’s not a monster. It’s that person.”

I rose above the water and waved to the people and said.

Only then did people calm down, clutching their surprised hearts.

Among them, one man, exhausted, tried to sink into the water.

I quickly approached him and put on his waist belt.

As I pulled the string on the waist belt, it inflated and floated on the water.

“Wow! It’s a life jacket.”

People were amazed.

I only distributed life belts to those in immediate need.

However, since most people were in poor condition, several people were asked to hold on to the life belt together.

“Hey! You. Aren’t you the one who climbed the crane?”

When I got on the barge, the yellow helmet I had seen recognized me.

I told him.

“Yes, that’s right. I have a favor to ask. Could you take the people to the barge?”

“No. You want me to go to the burning barge?”

“Yes. This place will soon become a battlefield. So, if you go inside the barge, there will be an area where there is no oil and no fire. It will be a little hot, but please wait there.”

This is something I checked before jumping off the crane.

The man, who had been thinking for a moment, said:

“Okay. I don’t know who you are, but seeing you cook pirates makes me want to give you my piss. Would you like some?”

“No, it’s okay.”

I waved my hand and declined.

The man convinced people.

I thought people would be reluctant to walk through the fire, but when I told them I had asked them to, they nodded.

It seems that dealing with those pirates was impressive.

Well then, let’s deal with the speed boats now.

He took a pirate flag out of his bag.

The pirate flag was taken from a barge crane.

The flag, like other pirate flags, had a black background with a cross-shaped skeleton and a skull and crossbones.

However, the difference was that all of the skeleton’s teeth were shiny gold.

I took out a marker and started doodling on the flag.

The skull has large, sparkling eyes and long, curly hair, reminiscent of a true comic book character.

And the X-shaped bone was turned into a bouquet of flowers.

Finally, the gold teeth were painted black, making the skeleton look like it had no teeth.

“Haha.”

When I saw the flag that had become so comical, I couldn’t help but laugh.

The newly interpreted pirate image may not be visible from far away, so we added some avant-garde work.

I used scissors to cut holes and tear the flag here and there.

Then he hung the tattered flag on a three-tiered pole and raised it high.

I can’t help but see it.

The speedboats that were racing towards me must have seen the flag, because people appeared on the bow and waved at me.

It seemed like they were swearing, but it was hard to hear because of the distance and the loud noise of the speedboat’s engine.

“What? You like the flag? Then come and get it!”

I waved the flag.
