Rise of the Legendary Emperor

"Your majesty but..." Arwen looked reluctant to let Don fight the Kraken alone with his remaining little bit of Bound Energy.

"This is not the time Arwen, get out of here, that's an order!" Don's stern voice made everyone obey his order as he stepped on the black sword to fight the Kraken.

He noticed Kraken's ability to suck all the life energy around it making everyone around it powerless. Coupled with its cultivation, Peak Heavenly Level and high intelligence made the Kraken a tremendous powerhouse.

Even though Don had the advantage of Battle Energy, the Kraken could match that advantage with its colossal body size. In front of the Kraken's tentacles, he looked puny.

But there was no fear in his eyes but excitement and adrenaline rush to fight a mighty mythical creature such as this Kraken.

"GRRRRRHHHH!" the Kraken somehow sensed the incoming threat and turned its focus from the ships to Don.

"QUICK, DROP THE SAILS!" back on Gabriella's ship, Arwen screamed at the sailors. His shout brought back the sailors terrorized by the sight of Kraken. They immediately started the work to get the hell out of this place.

"Wait for me Don, I will bring reinforcement" Arwen mumbled under his breath looking at Don who was evading the tentacles of the Kraken.

Boom!

'What is he doing?!' 

Unlike everyone's expectation, Don didn't fight the Kraken but destroyed one of the escaping Thunder Hearts ships. Shiyon shrieked but Don kept avoiding the tentacles and destroying the few ships that were trying to escape the Kraken's wrath.

Each time Don flew over a ship, Shiyon saw a huge hand made of water appearing from below the ship and crushing them. She knew there was no way her men could survive after being crushed by that giant hand.

"This how the people your guild destroyed would have felt, Shiyon" Gabriella came closer to Shiyon and said with a cold tone. What happened today was nothing like Shiyon expected. They were supposed to blackmail Grega's merchant guild to sneak the box they got from Sable into Everlight. However, they expected neither Don's arrival on the ship nor Sable's sudden appearance to personally kill Don.

As far as Shiyon knew, they were to help Sable and in return, he would help them take over all the businesses in the Moon Empire. This deal was good enough for them and didn't care or try to know more about Sable's enmity with Don.

Pulch!

Following Gabriella's words, Shiyon spurted out blood and when she looked down, she saw a dagger sticking out of her stomach.

"Gabi!" Flavius shouted and rushed at Gabriella as she kept stabbing Shiyon to death. Arwen and the Black-armored men raised their brows up in surprise and some of them felt a cold chill running through their spine. They had never expected the gentle-looking merchant girl would stab someone to death in cold blood.

"Taking her with us is bad for business Father!" As she said, she threw Shiyon's body overboard and sheathed her dagger.

Boom!

On the other side, Don destroyed the last surviving ship of the Thunder Hearts and prepared himself to fight the real threat, the Kraken.

After confirming everyone in the Thunder Hearts had died, Don reached out his hand as the bow of Arjuna separated itself from the back of his armor and flew into his hands.

The Shield also appeared out of his space ring and floated around him protecting him from the tentacles of the Kraken. Luckily, the wind was on Arwen's side as they started to sail away from the Kraken. Now everyone's gaze was on the fight happening in the distance and when they saw the bow in Don's hand, they were surprised.

"I thought... he's a swordsman" Flavius mumbled, "Is he good?" Gabriella asked Arwen as he nodded.

"Very"

Boom!

Don fired the first arrow which broke the sound barrier and pierced the Kraken's tentacle. The arrow might have looked tiny compared to the tentacle but when it pierced the tentacle, the Kraken shrieked.

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

Each arrow fired from his bow produced a sound like a thunder clap and hit the Kraken without missing the mark. However, after four arrows, the Kraken had enough and swung its tentacles violently.

Boom! This time it wasn't the sound of Don firing an arrow but the tentacle hitting the shield and blasting Don away.

"Your Majesty!" Arwen and the Black-armored men screamed as they saw Don's body flung away like a kite without a string in the storm.

"(Cough)" When he steadied himself in the air, he coughed out blood. He was fortunate to have the Shield which took most of the attack's force. Without the shield, he would have received the force of the tentacled directly and broke a few bones in his body.

His armor now completely destroyed as he ripped off the upper part and put it into his space ring. He wiped off the blood and floated in the midair bare-chested.

Only then he noticed the cuts on his body but the blood and the sight of Kraken pumped out his adrenaline.

"I know you can hear me" Don lowered his bow and said. His voice was enhanced by the Battle energy and reverberated the rainy ocean.

He knew a Heavenly level creature like this Kraken would possess intelligence equal to a human. Just like he expected, the Kraken also stopped swinging its tentacles.

"I give you a chance Kraken, stop fighting someone else's fight and go. I'll let you live"

"GRRRHHHHH!" 

"Oh my!"

"HOLY!"

"Shit!"

Vrrroooooooom!

A few moments after Don's words escaped his mouth, the sea trembled violently as the Kraken fully emerged out of the sea and revealed its colossal terrifying form to everyone. The Kraken had a gigantic head with two colossal blue eyes staring at Don, with hundreds of tentacles and ominous greyish color skin, the Kraken put the fear of God in everyone's hearts.

"A Gigantic octopus" Don stared directly at its two eyes and mumbled.

"Grrroooooooo!" The Kraken made a sound as a hot wave of forceful wind brushed through Don.

"I don't know Kraken but if you turn around and leave, I'll take it as you took the deal" However instead of turning around, the Kraken's blue eyes turned red as its Magical fluctuations began to skyrocket.

"So you've chosen death" Don closed his eyes and conjured every bit of Black energy and Battle Energy.

The next moment, the rumbling of thunder sounded in the Rainy ocean. The dark clouds as black as night appeared above Don and the Kraken. Arwen saw cracks of lighting surrounding Don's body as his Magical fluctuations skyrocketed just like the Kraken.

A flash of blue appeared and disappeared in Kraken's eyes looking at the scene. Everyone on Gabriella's ship felt goosebumps witnessing the storm created by Don and trembled in fear.

The Kraken's body went from greyish color to fiery red as it prepared to annihilate Don before he used his final attack. The Kraken now feared the human in front of it.

"Kausta eom edtha du oro abr vergarí" Don raised his bow and chanted in ancient language to summon the Destroyer arrow. The symbols on the bow glowed in silver and red as a Black arrow started to take form in Don's hand.

Unlike the previous arrows, the black arrow in Don's hand seemed to have been made with pure Life Energy, a powerful form of Life Energy at that.

Hmmmmmmmmmm

When he knocked the Destroyer arrow on the Bow's string, Arwen heard an unearthly humming sound and shuddered. Many of the people on the ship dropped to their knees because of the vibrations and the power radiated from the arrow.

Boom! Right at the moment, a fiery red light appeared out of the Kraken's head and sped towards Don. The heat produced by the light burned the air around it but at that moment, Don released the Destroyer arrow.

"BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM" 

Their hearts skipped a beat and shuddered at the sound of Don's attack. They had never heard something loud and powerful as this. The entire Rainy ocean turned dark as night and the only light they saw was the Light rushing towards Don.

And when the Destroyer arrow met the Kraken's light, the seak shook again.

Arwen and the men grabbed what near them to steady themselves as the ship trembled. The next moment, they saw a huge mushroom cloud where Don and Kraken were fighting.

"Your Majesty!" when they couldnt see the Kraken or Don, Arwen, and the Black-armored men panicked as Arwen ran to the ship's edge to jump down into the sea to swim there.

"Look!" Gabriella's shout stopped Arwen. She pointed at the black dot dashing towards them.

Plop!

  The next moment, they saw Don fell on the ship with his black sword and shield. His body was covered in blood coming out of the cuts and wounds on his body.

"Your majesty!" Arwen and the Black armored men ran to him to help him up.

"Ah" Don growled and took Arwen's hands to stand up.

"Here, take this" Arwen quickly retrieved a couple of Healing potions and helped him swallow the potion. The wounds started to heal visible to the naked eyes as Arwen put Don's arm around his neck to support him.

"Arwen"

"Your majesty?"

"I think I hate octopuses"
