Ocean Master

Chapter 301 - Old Mak's Sacrifice!

Old Mak decided to sacrifice his life.

After thinking hard, after suffering the constant mental blows of guilt, after watching the numerous deaths, Old Mak decided that the best way to atone for his sins was to sacrifice his life for the other sharks to escape.

Someone had to stand to the challenge one way or the other. If no one stood, there was a high chance that none of them would escape alive.

The pressure that was induced by the enemies' pursuit was what stimulated Old Mak to make this decision that had far-reaching consequences.

When he was younger, he already cowered once which led to his lifetime guilt that kept on haunting him for decades. At this moment, Old Mak refused to make the same mistake that was capable of haunting him forever.

He was already an old Great White Shark; he was content with dying if doing so could allow the young Great White Sharks to blossom and prosper.

"When you love something, you protect it!"

At this moment, this was what kept Old Mak going despite the odds that were heavily against him. His mission felt like an impossible one.

Amid the ocean volcano which was slowly crumbling apart due to the massive battle between the Rabbit Monarch and the Chosen Athena, his enemies lined up like an unstoppable force towards him.

His enemies comprised of the over a dozen Annihilator warships that the 2 Atlantian Mega Fleets fielded, the trump card warships of the other variant human races, the 2 surviving Generals, and the turtle cultist, Ancestor Horamon.

Through a series combination of wisdom, cunningness, and impeccable execution of skill, this enormous turtle was able to safeguard his life where the Rogue Snake Overlord could not.

All his companions were already dead, but this enormous turtle did not give a damn as he focused on the goal of getting back the ultimate inheritance.

The Atlantians were still the superior force here, but nothing was set in stone, a miracle could happen and this was why he did not leave immediately. He may become the biggest benefactor after all the chaos died down.

Pitting Old Mak against all these enemies was like throwing an egg against a rock, he stood no chance but the enormous Great White Shark did not cower.

Throughout the decades that his shark clan dominated a small corner of this Ocean Volcano region, Old Mak and his elders were not idle as they all engaged in different small activities to accumulate power and resources.

Though it did not seem like it, the shark clan that was created by Old Mak was one of the strongest in the whole Ocean Volcano region considering that the region had only one Red tier overlord.

Among the magic weapons and gadgets that he and his elders got throughout the years after their victorious encounters, there were some exceptional ones among them.

The Detonation Pill! This was what Old Mak banked his hopes on.

The detonation pill was not a magic gadget, but this pill was naturally formed the same way that the mana core of mutated creatures was formed. Old Mak did not know how it came about, he encountered it due to a series of coincidences.

By studying it throughout the years, he knew the effects of the pill already.

Once a predator took the pill, it would go to work immediately and temporarily allow the said predator to increase his limit tolerance. 

Whereas he could only use 30% of his body's full potential and overall power before, with the detonation pill, he could break his limit and increase his load to 100% of his body's full potential.

When under the full effects of the Detonation pill, every strike of his no matter what part of his body that it came from contained 100% of his power.

The only problem was that once a mutated beast took the detonation pill, death was guaranteed. By forcing yourself to use your full body potential, the magic energy of the body becomes unstable and berserk.

Once this increases to an extent, the body detonates and the predator dies. Its principle was to shine brightest for a short time before dying.

To buy that tiny chance of survival for his clan members, Old Mak did not hesitate to swallow the detonation pill as his eyes turned red the next moment.

Old Mak suddenly felt both pain and power coursing through his body as he convulsed like electricity was tyrannically sweeping through his body.

While this happened, his magic presence increased. It took only a few seconds before his magic presence stabilized at the upper ranks of the Red tier.

By the time that all these happened, General Saber already arrived at his position but he was ready to face the Atlantian General.

"I must protect those that I love!"

"Killer Move: Rumbling Thunder, Rippling Lightning!"

Old Mak went all out from the onset as his body turned into an embodiment of the god of thunder. The aggressive energy that was already dominant in the air became more dominant as the enormous Great White Shark was unleashed. 

Bzzz! Boom!

Once the attack struck the unsuspecting Atlantian General, his special magic sword vibrated as its sword spirit cried out in pain.

General Saber flew back from the pain as the thunder invaded his body. He coughed blood as his face turned pale from the massive loss of blood.

Old Mak's first attack achieved remarkable effects, but his enemy was not just one. His attack on the Atlantian General exposed him to the counterattack of his other enemies, they felt his threat and resolutely surrounded him.

Tu! Tu! Tu! Tu!

Only the Annihilator warships of Atlantis and the trump card warships of the other variant human races attacked him, but Old Mak seemed to have been dissected in and out as his originally sturdy skin was ruthlessly torn open.

The bullets and energy beams battered against his body like the rain in an apocalypse, injuries filled his body as his vitality quickly entered the critical state.

Even if Old Mak now had the strength of an upper Red tier predator, he still stood no chance against his enemies. Ancestor Horamon and General Tito decided to bypass him and go after their original target, but Old Mak refused.

"I must protect those that I love!"

With a bloody mouth, a bloody nose, a bloody body, and bloodshot eyes that seemed likely to pop into a bloody mess at any moment, Old Mak's instinctive swim skill took precedence as he rapidly intercepted his other enemies.

Until he won or he was dead, no one was allowed to touch his loved ones! He would make sure to protect every surviving clansman of his till death!

Boom! Boom!

Old Mak attacked in an even more frenzied manner, but this exposed more vulnerabilities which his enemies eagerly took advantage of.

Against so many powerful enemies, he was no more than a punching bag. 

A minute later, Old Mak was bitten till his last breath.

BAM!

Ancestor Horamon finished the job as his powerful jaws clamped down hard against the enormous Great White Shark. 

Old Mak could no longer resist, he only gasped as blood flowed out of his body like a river, clouding both his vision and his pain.

"I must protect those that I love!"

Old Mak muttered unconsciously as he already lost consciousness. He saw himself in a world filled with green light, and in this world, a familiar figure was hovering before him, a familiar Megalodon.

"Nathan!" Old Mak muttered as sadness welled in his heart.

"I never had a grudge against you". The predatory Megalodon gently said. "You made your decision then, and I respect it. My only regret was not seeing you one last time before I died".

"You're doing a good job, go finish what you started".

The Megalodon suddenly opened his mouth and released a deep breath as a white ball was pushed out of his mouth. This white ball hit Old Mak and he was jolted to consciousness.

Once Old Mak opened his eyes, he finally felt the pain that was like a thousand knives were cutting all over his body. He didn't even have to look, he was at his last point, he only had a few seconds longer to live.

"Hahaha!" Old Mak laughed crazily even as he was still stuck under the powerful jaws of the turtle cultist.

"I have no regrets!"

"I MUST PROTECT THOSE THAT I LOVE!"

Ancestor Horamon suddenly felt his danger sense spike, the alarmed turtle tried to retreat but he could not escape fast enough before it happened.

Old Mak saw himself as already dead, so he did the little that he could to provide the last help to his clan members by detonating his mana core through a secret technique that he learned in an inheritance ground.

All the magic power that he had slowly trained for decades exploded at once in a mighty show of lightning and thunder.

BOOM!

Old Mak died.
