Bab 175: Ch. 169 - The Kraken

"The Instrument of Destruction!" As Abraham dramatically yelled, Ericka who was beside him, raised the weird looking item on her hand that resembles a Kraken's tentacles entangled against another.

"....Alright, I'm gonna admit that the name is cool and really fits on what it can do." Jin raised his hands in surrender while speaking.

"Oh really? You know what this mighty artifact can do? I'm impressed." Abraham seemed surprised at first before waving his hand nonchalantly as if knowing about the artifact changes nothing to his plans.

"You do know that I could just steal that artifact before you can use it, right?" Jin raised his eyebrow and said, however instead of seeing fear in Abraham's eyes, he seemed to be waiting for him to ask this question.

"Haha! That would be the case unless I didn't prepare myself against you people?" Abraham said but before he could continue to state his plans against Jin, he suddenly commented.

"I'm sorry, what do you mean, 'You people?'" Jin raised his eyebrows while crossing his arms as if some kind of offended Karen.

"I have the mo- wait what?" Abraham didn't even manage to finish his words before registering what Jin said. Why does it feel like he's the bad guy now? Isn't he doing this for the sake of humanity?

"You're racist, tsk tsk tsk." Jin continued and shook his head, making Abraham fume in anger, especially when he saw the other monsters following Jin's movements and also shook their heads.

What's even worse is the doubtful looks that the waitresses that are secretly agents are giving him, albeit only for a moment before their professionalism kicked in and the doubts disappeared as if it wasn't there in the first place.

"Shut up! You devil! Take it out!" Fuming in anger, Abraham quickly shut them up by yelling loudly before giving an order to the secret agents that are behind him.

They all nodded in unison and under everyone's curious gaze especially Jin's, they watched as the agents pulled out some weird weapon out of their behinds before pointing them at the monsters, mostly towards Jin.

Raising his eyebrow, Jin decided to be cautious and if those weird weapons can indeed hurt him, then he should be prepared.

Just as Jin was wary over the weapons, the agents finally pulled the trigger.

*Splash!*

Several strings of transparent liquid that resemble water squirted out of their weird weapons and landed in Jin's body.

Jin, who was ready to dodge and avoid the water, felt nothing on the water. Normally, he should feel some kind of threat that would warn him but he received nothing, which prompted him to let the water land on his body.

*Splash!*

Combined with Jin's expressionless face, makes the scene awkward, especially for Abraham who was just about to introduce his secret weapon against Jin once the said weapon takes effect.

"Is this water?" Jin licked some of the water that splashed on his lips and raised an eyebrow.

"What? N-no! How is that possible? Pope Francis told me himself that this Holy Water is effective against devils like you!" Abraham finally revealed and explained about the 'Holy Water' that they used against Jin.

"Pfft! Hahahaha!" Unable to hold his laughter, Jin started laughing out loud much to Abraham's irritation and the agent's confusion.

"Oh come on, old man in a weird machine. Did you really think a normal water that they believed to be blessed by God can affect me? Yes, I'm going to admit I'm a devil but this....this is just water." While holding his laugh in order to explain it, Jin pointed at the weapons in the middle of his explanation.

"W-w-what?" For the first time that his plan went haywire, Abraham's survival instincts quickly took over him, forcing him to look for something that would help him in such a situation.

What else could there be but the Instrument of Destruction that he currently holds.

"I'm sure you haven't noticed this also, right?" Jin smirked before twirling the said weapon on his fingers.

"WHAT?!" Now, Abraham wasn't the only one shocked but also Ericka and the agents behind them. Without the Instrument of Destruction, that means they're at a huge disadvantage now, no it's more accurate to say that their lives lay in the hands of Jin and the monsters.

The agents sweated in fear, scared for their life.

Meanwhile, Ericka was already thinking of ways of how to escape here along with her father, Abraham. But so far, she can't think of anything but jumping out of the sea, however Abraham's machine isn't resistant to water, especially dipping inside the sea.

However, Jin's next words not only shocked them but also his fellow monsters.

"How do I use this thing?" Jin flipped the artifact around several times before giving up and asking Abraham who seems to know more about it. He may have watched the movie but he could barely remember it and Jin doesn't know why.

"....There's a hidden musical note inside once you open it.." Although Abraham was speechless, he still taught Jin how to use it, he's afraid that if he didn't do so, Jin might kill him out of anger.

"I see." Jin nodded his head and much to everyone's surprise, Jin smashed the artifact open and revealed the hidden content.

"Jin!" Aside from Tigress and Rapunzel, Elsa was the only one who seemed to be worried.

As for why Tigress isn't worried? Of course, why should she when she also wants to fight the Kraken, she's been itching for a good fight for an entire month.

And now that the opportunity has presented itself, who is she to refuse such an offer?

While Rapunzel's reason was because she trusts whatever Jin is doing. Elsa was only worried because unlike Tigress, she doesn't like violence and prefers peace over them.

It's not like she doesn't trust Jin either but she just prefers to see peace rather than seeing people getting hurt.

Back to Jin, he was wondering what to do on the piece of paper before remembering that Abraham was the one who brought this artifact which only means one thing and that he must've prepared something to use this musical note.

"I need you to awaken the Kraken." The paper teleported from Jin's hand to Abraham's, further shocking everyone.

"Uh-uhmm, me?" Abraham's intelligent brain seemed to have been fried from the decisions that Jin is making, he doesn't know if Jin is confident in himself or just an idiot that can't wait to be killed.

Nonetheless, Abraham doesn't have any reason to refuse, in fact he's over the heavens right now due to having the illusion that the Kraken could surely beat Jin and protect him.

"Uhh, Jin are you sure about this?" Murray approached Jin and whispered to him worriedly, he has lived long enough to know the horrors of the Kraken, especially to the sailors.

Normally, Murray should be stronger than the Kraken but they're in an environment disadvantage, so Murray has no power in this place.

If they were in a sand environment, then Murray would become nigh-unbeatable by anyone, perhaps only Dracula with his time stop ability could defeat him at that moment.

"Yup, just step aside and let me handle this." Jin winked at them and said, watching as Abraham prepares his piano where he placed the musical note in front of him.

*Crack!*

Cracking his fingers, Abraham started playing the piano according to the sheet music in front of him.

*Piano music*

***

Far across deep inside the sea, a peaceful sleeping Kraken suddenly opens his eyes once his ears catch the sound of the piano playing.

Soon, it didn't take long before his eyes turned red and he quickly swam out of his makeshift bed.

If you look at a bird's view, you will see a tsunami-like wave rushing towards the cruise ship where Jin and the rest lie.

It didn't take long before the Kraken finally showed himself with red eyes and an angry expression, as if someone just pissed him off even though no one did.

Back to Jin, the moment everyone saw the Kraken's appearance, almost everyone except for Jin and his women shuddered in fear just from its sheer size.

"Hahaha! Here it is! You arrogant fool! You're dead!" Seeing the appearance of the Kraken that is under his control, Abraham regained his confidence and yelled on the top of his lungs.

"I'll deal with him later but for now..." Jin chuckled at Abraham's behavior that truly resembles what a villain should be like before facing Tigress and continuing.

"I know you have been itching to fight, so why don't you do the honors this time?" Jin smiled warmly and said, offering her to strike first and have her way with the Kraken.

"You know me so well." Feeling her fighting spirits reawakening, Tigress grins before planting a kiss on Jin's cheeks.

*Smooch!*

The moment she did that, she didn't hesitate anymore and quickly jumped across the air and met the Kraken face to face.

"Haaahhh!" Delivering a devastating kick towards the Kraken's forehead.

*Boom!*

Under everyone's shocked eyes, the Kraken flew backwards before landing back on the sea and sunk in.

Especially Abraham whose jaw dropped from what he just saw.

Isn't Kraken the strongest creature in the sea? How come a mere Tigress who resembles a human managed to knock it down in a single strike?

"Heh. That's my girl." Jin cast a proud smirk after seeing the expressions of the viewers.

"Hmmm." Pouting in jealousy, Rapunzel also wanted to be called that, so she looked at the rising Kraken before a plan arose from her mind.

Bab 176: Ch. 170 - Poor Kraken

Using chi to levitate herself, Tigress watched as the Kraken used one of his tentacles to fight back.

*Boom!*

Crossing her arms in front of her, Tigress didn't bother dodging it and instead, blocked it with her crossed arms.

As soon as the large tentacle came in contact with her small figure, Tigress failed to stabilize herself in the air from the sheer force of the tentacle and was blown towards the deep sea.

*Splash!*

"She's dead!" Abraham was in delight after seeing that a single attack from the Kraken has 'killed' the Tigress.

However when he looked at Jin to gloat at him, he was confused to see that a large grin was plastered on his face, as if he wasn't worried about his wife at all.

Before he could ask his question, his curiosity was soon answered when a booming sound resounded across the sea.

*Splash!*

*Boom!*

Following the exploding sound was a small figure that rose from the waters and flew back towards the confused Kraken.

Failing to react in time, the 'figure' smashed its way on the Kraken's forehead.

"Huh?" The Kraken could only mutter a word of confusion before his entire body was blown away, revealing Tigress who was very wet thanks to the water.

"I hate water." Tigress muttered to herself while watching the Kraken roar and showed its large fangs to Tigress.

"Rrr!" Tigress also growled back at the Kraken before engaging him.

The Kraken used all of his tentacles to attack Tigress while Tigress herself simply dodged all of this while in mid-air, showing her amazing control over her chi flight.

"How?" Abraham was both wide-eyed and jaw dropped after seeing such a scene. Have you seen any place in this world where a Tigress could fly like that?

Even the agents and Ericka were also shocked. Aside from the Tigress flying in the air without any help, she's also beating the shit out of the Kraken.

The expected outcome of Kraken coming out as a victor was now the opposite. Instead, it was Tigress who was now coming out as the victor of the battle.

*Bam!*

Treating the Kraken as if it was a punching bag, Tigress was finally having the joy of her life.

"Rrrraaaaggghh!" As if the Kraken was feeling embarrassment of being beaten black and blue by Tigress, the Kraken grew angry and tried to retaliate by smashing his tentacles together against her.

*Boom!*

Too late to dodge the combined tentacles, Tigress could only cross her arms once again and use her chi to create a barrier in front of her.

*Bam!*

Fortunately this time, she wasn't thrown away like what happened previously thanks to the chi barrier absorbing most of the force of the attack.

"My turn!" Tigress smirked and held her hands together before her conjoined hands glowed in yellow hues.

"Taste this!" Tigress yelled before smashing her hands on the Kraken's head.

*BOOM!*

The Kraken seemed to have felt the pain this time as his eyes were rolling around while his body was dazing back and forth like a drunkard.

It is clear that the attack has concussed the Kraken and this is a perfect chance for Tigress to finish the battle when someone suddenly interferes.

*Swoosh!*

A long golden hair suddenly flew in the sky and wrapped itself on one of the Kraken's tentacles.

Seeing the long golden hair, everyone even Jin himself instinctively looked at the place where they last saw Rapunzel only to see nothing on her place.

"Wooohooo!"

Tracing the source of the sound, they were surprised to see Rapunzel swinging in the air while holding onto her golden hair like a certain man who was raised by monkeys.

"Rapunzel?!" Tigress yelled at her in worry. She was obviously worried due to the fact that out of the three of them along with Elsa, Rapunzel was the weakest and doesn't have that much offensive power. All she has is her long golden hair that could somehow manipulate time but only reverse.

"What's she doing?" Elsa approached the railing and was about to use her ice powers to rescue Rapunzel.

'What's with her?' Raising his eyebrow, Jin also prepared himself to teleport just in case something bad happens to Rapunzel.

However, what she did next shocked everyone who was watching her.

The golden hair that shone and gave every injured people hope, slowly turned black, starting on her scalp right towards the tip of her long hair.

"Rapunzel?" Tigress confusedly asked after seeing lack of goldenness in her hair.

"So this is what my mother was saying huh?" In fact, they weren't the only ones who were shocked as Rapunzel was shocked too, except that she already knew about this hidden side of her.

She could still vividly remember what her mother, Aeloria told her about their powers and how their purpose is not only to give life to others but to also take away their life.

Normally, Rapunzel would need to have an incantation for this but during the time she spent with her mother, she also taught her everything she needed to know about her powers.

One might think that Rapunzel is useless when it comes to combat but out of all of them aside from Jin, she has the most potent and scariest ability to ever exist. That is to suck the life out of a person using her hair.

And now, the effects can now be seen on the Kraken who seemed to have exhausted himself, his previous scary appearance started to turn pale and he now looks like an old Kraken that has lived his entire lifespan.

"W-w-what's happening?!" Abraham stuttered and was dumbstruck by the sudden events.

First is a flying Tigress and now a long golden hair turning black and suddenly the Kraken starts to become weak?

How did these monsters exist and why are their existence not written in any literature like Dracula or Frankenstein?

"Is that even Rapunzel?" Jin tilted his head and asked himself, Elsa also agreed with him and nodded her head.

"Should I even go and help her out?" Elsa asked in a skeptical tone.

"I don't think you should." Jin shook his head, he was also thinking the same thing earlier and changed his mind after seeing that the Kraken itself is already solved.

'Normally, I should be the one out there to enjoy the fight but since I've already fought a strong ROB a few days earlier, I guess I should give this one to them.' Jin whispered to himself while watching the Kraken struggle to fight back at Rapunzel.

But as if Rapunzel was possessed by a War Goddess, she skillfully evaded all of the Kraken's attempts by using her long black hair to swing around.

At the same time, more and more life started to leave the Kraken as his face now shows wrinkles and is on the verge of passing out.

Seeing his current appearance, Jin could only shake his head and comment.

"Poor Kraken."

***

"Dad, we need to leave." Ericka didn't hesitate to grab her father's machine body before running towards the side of the cruise where the lifeboats were hanging, waiting to be used.

Abraham also felt the same so he didn't say anything and allowed her to carry him away. He could already see that it is hopeless to fight back now especially after seeing the state of the Kraken.

The agents also followed suit but before they could even reach 10 steps, someone suddenly intercepted them.

"...Dracula" It turns out, it was Dracula and the other monsters including Mavis were the ones who intercepted them.

"I can't believe this, Abby. I thought we were friends." Even though they were betrayed by Abraham, Dracula along with his kind heart still wanted to forgive him despite the deception.

But Mavis and Martha nudged him on his side, indicating that he didn't let his emotions rule his judgement on Abraham.

Today, they were almost on the brink of dead and if Jin wasn't here, perhaps they would have died by now.

"I can't believe I also fell for it." Meanwhile, Vlad was the only one who wasn't worried for his life. After all, he has already reached the pinnacle of his life, so he doesn't have any value in his life at all. Sure, Dracula and Mavis would be sad if he died but that's life, right? It's normal to have your loved ones die.

"Dad, stay behind me." Seeing the looks that the monsters are giving them, Ericka knew that they're in a very tight position, tighter than a virgin's pussy.

"....What are we gonna do to them?" Mavis whispered to his father. To be honest she felt like there is a peaceful way to deal with them instead of the usual killing.

"How do you think we should deal with them, my little Mavy Wavy?" Seeing that Mavis took the initiative to talk to him for the first time since the whole week, Dracula was over here and decided to leave their fate to his cute daughter's hands.

Happy that Dracula gave the final decision to her, Mavis quickly stated her decision.

"I think it would be better to simply put them behind our prison dungeons, right?" Mavis nervously suggested, afraid that they would not like her suggestion, thankfully her mother was there to the rescue.

Martha nodded her head in support of her daughter not because she's her daughter but because she also felt the same, perhaps this is the reason why Mavis felt the urge to not punish them extremely, she might have inherited her mother's kind heart.
