Chapter 36: Monkey King (2)

Jake climbed up a tall tree and looked ahead.

The Monkey King Puffy was sleeping with his back plastered to the tree. He was a huge monkey with a thick tail and a round belly, as though he had eaten the forest's entire fruits. 

The said fruits had been heaped up around him by other monkeys who had diligently worked to please their boss before scurrying away from him.

No one dared to wander in the monkey king's presence.

Jake whispered, "And I thought one piece was the friends you've made on your journey, Puffy…"

If it weren't for the round belly bobbing in the monkey boss' slumber, Jake would have some trouble spotting the boss since his fur was dark like his kin's, meaning he could hide well in the dark forest.

Thankfully, the waves in the darkness facilitated Jake enough to begin the battle.
