After the enormous fleet of warships reached the shore, Sha Shui quickly went forward to welcome them.
Flights of stairs were extended from the warships and the silhouette of players subsequently appeared. Upon descending the stairs, they went ashore.
Sha Shui, who could not figure out where these people were from, asked after some contemplation, “Honorable guests, may I know which force are you from?”
The players were stunned. Liu Chai, who was leading in front, waved his hands smilingly, “The Sea King is our old friend. There’s no need to be over courteous. We are here today to congratulate him on establishing a new nation!”
“Good, good. Honorable guests, please come inside!”
Despite not knowing their identity, Sha Shui dared not neglect them as they claimed to be the Sea King’s old pals and they seemed to be a very powerful force.
After delivering a gaze to his subordinate, he then personally accompanied Liu Chai and the others to walk the blue carpet and head to the inner part of the island.
The players were holding big and small bags, their faces full of happiness throughout the journey. Sha Shui was also secretly thrilled in his heart.
It was clear to him that the previous forces did not come wholeheartedly. However, despite being a powerful force, these people seemed to be sincere. They might be of great assistance to the building of the new nation.
Since their interests had been combined with the Sea King, the fact that he had such a strong alliance might be beneficial for them, too.
The scale of the Nation Establishment Ceremony was extremely enormous. The inner part of the island had been filled with all kinds of seafood, delicacies, and alcoholic drinks. There was still a vast space available after the players occupied the ceremony. The number of players who attended was still huge.
The players’ eyes were shining while looking at the joyous feast. They did not expect to get to enjoy such a great feast while delivering their wishes.
“Honorable guests, you may enjoy the food as you wish. I will notify the Sea King about your arrival,” Sha Shui said smilingly.
Liu Chai wanted to stop him initially but he let him go after some contemplation as they were going to meet anyway. He hoped that the Sea King wouldn’t lose his temper because they had been sincere enough to come here.
They had no intention to cause any trouble.
After Sha Shui left, Liu Chai announced on the live chat channel, “Let’s disperse… everyone, do as you please. We will congratulate the Sea King when he comes out.”
The players dispersed upon hearing that and started devouring the foreign delicacies.
Compared to the food in real life, the food here was made from different ingredients. They were astonished and enjoyed the food happily with faces full of satisfaction.
…
The central part of the island.
At the royal palace which belonged to the Tian Yu Nation in the past.
The Sea King sat on his throne while listening to the lords below reporting on their resources and territorial situation.
He was evaluating the strength of the nation after the combination of forces to plan for future development.
He was good at doing this as he was once the overlord of the entire Void Ocean.
That was when Sha Shui walked to his side at a fast pace and voiced respectfully, “My king, it’s time… we should start the Nation Establishment Ceremony soon.”
Sha Shui continued, “A huge fleet of warships arrived just now. They said that they are your old friends but they didn’t tell me their identity!”
The Sea King frowned upon hearing that.
He had a lot of powerful allies during his rule in the Void Ocean but he never had any friends. Thus, he was clueless.
“Are they here to cause any trouble?”
Sha Shui’s expression changed upon hearing that, “My king, they are not here for trouble. They even brought a lot of gifts. Even though I didn’t check the presents they brought, almost every one of them had something in their hands which meant that they are well-prepared. This is not something a trouble-making force would do.”
The Sea King unwrinkled his eyebrows. He then nodded, stood up, and walked toward the venue of the feast.
Since he could not understand what was going on, he had to see it personally to understand the situation.
Old friends are welcomed. However, if they are enemies, he will not treat them well.
This was his territory. He didn’t think that there would be any force that would be brave enough to be this unbridled.
Looking at the Sea King walking down from his throne, the seven lords below quickly moved to provide some space to form a path. They then followed behind the Sea King after he walked past.
The band that was already long prepared started playing music as the Sea King reached the venue. A red carpet was formed under the Sea King’s feet and continued extending as he moved forward.
At the same time, water element cannons were launched and glittering blue raindrops fell from the sky, embellishing the Sea King’s distinguished image.
The players who saw the scene had excitement written all over their faces.
“Cool! This is exactly what a boss should look like!”
“The most popular boss indeed, great job!”
“That’s good. The determined Sea King has finally made some improvement. This is truly something worth congratulating!”
…
The players thought that the Sea King looked very handsome and attractive on that day.
They felt content as if they saw their crops growing well.
They were having comforting smiles on their faces like a bunch of old farmers.
“My king, those are the forces that I was talking about!” Sha Shui pointed at Liu Chai and the other players as he led the Sea King to his golden throne.
The Sea King looked toward the direction which Sha Shui pointed, but soon after, his face turned pale.
How could he not know these degenerates? If it wasn’t for them, he would still be the overlord of the Void Ocean and he would not need to work so hard in rebuilding his own forces.
All his efforts were made to seek revenge on them!
The Sea King clenched his fists while trying not to explode in anger. At the same time, he wanted to beat Sha Shui up so badly for letting this problematic enemy in. He should have destroyed them when they were still at the coast.
It seems like the ceremony is not going to end well! The Sea King’s gaze slowly turned cold.
Right at that moment, Liu Chai voiced in the guild live chat channel, “Congratulations to the Sea King in establishing a new nation!”
All the seated players stood up immediately, holding their wine cups while facing the Sea King.
“Congratulations to the Sea King for establishing a new nation!”
Since the number of attending players was a lot, their roar was so powerful that it scared the other guests.
The forces who were here to investigate their opponents’ strength had mixed expressions. They did not expect the Sea King to not only rule the seven nations but to also have such a strong alliance. This would be disadvantageous to them.
However, the Sea King was enraged.
In his opinion, the players’ words and actions were undoubtedly provocative.
However, it was a really important day. The ceremony would be canceled if a fight broke out with them here as the scale of the attending players was not small.
I shall see what you are going to do! Facing the players, the Sea King snorted, flicked his sleeves, and took his seat on the golden throne.
“The Nation Establishing Ceremony officially begins!” Sha Shui shouted at the top of his lungs.
The eight statue spirits marched to the Sea King’s back and raised the weapons in their hands.
“From this day onward, the Sha Shui Nation, Black Hell, Lan Di… will merge and form a new nation, the Mu Te Sea Nation! We crown the new king Mu Hai as our king, with the name of Sea King… the sky and land are the witnesses while the sun and moon are the examiners of our minds…”
The players were getting sleepy while listening to the long-winded declaration. Compared to that, they were more interested in the food in front of them. Unable to control their desire anymore, they continued devouring the food.
This scene made the Sea King’s face turn ashen. To him, the players’ actions were just trying to provoke him.
However, he withheld from exploding at them. This is because he’s already prepared to murder all the forces from Beiqi after the ceremony ends in order to show off his power!
After the announcement, the Sea King slowly stood up to face the sitting guests, “The new nation of Mu Te Sea is hereby established…. everyone who came here is a guest…. I would like to know whether any guest intends to form an alliance with our new Mu Te Sea Nation!”
“The Deep Sea Mermaid Clan is willing to enter into an alliance with the Mu Te Sea Nation!”
“The Aurora Trading Association is willing to enter into an alliance with the Mu Te Sea Nation!”
“Tian Lan Island is willing to enter into an alliance with the Mu Te Sea Nation!”
…
Some forces who were willing to pledge their allegiance quickly showed their intentions right after the Sea King finished his speech as they were sucking up to the Sea King.
Looking at the many forces who wanted to form an alliance, the corners of the Sea King’s mouth curved upward and he was prepared to speak again.
It was at this moment, however, when a man sitting not far away from him who was in heavy armor and carried a huge hammer at his back slowly stood up,
“Sea King, what is your intention in letting go of the position of the overlord of the Void Ocean and coming here to our Kuilong Ocean? Did you think that your territory was not big enough and you were prepared to make us give up some of our land to you?”
Everyone gasped at his words.
Undoubtedly, these words constituted positive provocation. The Sea King’s face immediately turned ferocious.
He recognized the man. He is one of the three strongest forces in the Kuilong Ocean, Lang Tie, who is also the Second Brother of Langya Island. He’s considered one of the most powerful people in the Kuilong Ocean.
However, the Sea King was not bothered by all that. He had been thinking to punish someone to show his strength and this person who was being so impolite suited his intention perfectly.
However, the seated forces of Beiqi suddenly stood up one by one right when the Sea King was prepared to show off his skills.
Smash! Smash! Smash!
The noises of smashing wine cups were heard continuously.
“What the fuck! Who the hell are you!? Fuck off!”
“Bitch, do you have any position to talk here? How dare you oppose the Sea King in establishing a new nation? Are you looking down on us?”
“Damn, if it wasn’t for the Sea King’s reputation, we would fuck you up right here and now!”
“Shut up! Don’t think that you’re all that just because you’re wearing armor… I will let you have a taste of what calamity is if you dare say anything rude today!”
“Who the hell do you think you are!? Apologize or I will beat you up!”
“Where are you from? Give us your name! Are you here to look for trouble? Is the establishment of a new nation by the Sea King causing any problem for you? Also, what do you mean by giving up land? So what if the Sea King wants every piece of your territory? If you continue talking, believe it or not, I will smash your head in!”
“Fool, I advise you to be kinder. You are nothing but a ball of dust in our eyes. We will let the Great Demon King dig out your ancestors’ graves if the Sea King fails in establishing a new nation today. Believe it or not, we will temper them and make them dance in front of you!”
…
Looking at the players who were scolding Lang Tie, the Sea King was totally dumbfounded.
He initially thought that the players were rooting for Lang Tie when they stood up. However, unexpectedly, they were united in pointing fingers at Lang Tie. It looked like they were defending him instead.
The Sea King fell into deep contemplation.
Lang Tie’s face turned pale. Suddenly, he turned his back, grabbed the giant hammer at his back and faced the players.
“Which force are you from? How dare you provoke Langya Island? Do you want your whole family to be wiped out?”
The players were burning with rage upon hearing that.
“What the hell? We are the Beiqi forces from the west of the Void Ocean. There, you have our address. Do call us for a fight!”
“Come, come. We shall wait for you in the Land of Beiqi. You’ll be my grandson if you don’t come!”
“Wipe us out, my ass! You are such an egoistic person. If you want to wipe us out, remember to wipe each and every one of us. I will remember you, Langya, you are done for. Go back and enjoy your last meal. Then, prepare for your death!
“If it wasn’t because of the fact that today that the Sea King is establishing a new nation, we would have gone out to have a fight right now. Fuck your ancestors!”
…
Lang Tie’s body was trembling with rage from the players’ rude scolding. He immediately raised his hammer.
“Langya Army!”
“Yes!”
Every soldier from Langya Island who was sitting around stood up instantly.
“Go…”
“How dare you… anyone who picks a fight here will be the enemy of the Mu Te Sea Nation. I want to see if anyone dares to move!” Hei Sui moved forward immediately and gave Lang Tie a cold glare.
