Evolution: Start AS A Raft

282. Sky Class Sea Area



The Sea God Ancient Tree, which had lived for thousands of years, sank to the bottom of the sea after the arrival of the Azure Era, undergoing drastic mutation.

It was said that the Sea God Ancient Tree would bear a Sea God fruit every hundred years, and each Sea God fruit was an extremely rare top-grade item.

Raine squinted his eyes slightly. Archie's understanding of the Sky-class sea area was clearly more detailed than that of Magnus.

Archie was definitely not an ordinary person.

"Archie, do you want to come with me?"

Archie smiled faintly, "Raine, I'm tired of killing. Let me be a quiet old geezer. When we were young, we moved forward, wanting to explore the pinnacle of strength. But now I understand that sometimes retreating in the face of difficulties can also be a good choice. Do you find the sunset by the sea beautiful?"

Raine looked towards the horizon, where the sea and the sky met, the sky had seagulls flying freely. The sun was setting, and the fire cloud on the horizon was beautiful and slightly enchanting against the light blue backdrop.

"It is beautiful," Raine said leisurely.

However, after a brief pause, Raine remarked, "Nevertheless, this beautiful scene is only temporary. If the Dragon-class sea were still like before, we wouldn't have the chance to lay here and appreciate this beauty."

Archie chuckled lightly, "You're right. However, I'll leave the conquest to you. As an old man, I'll just enjoy the present."

Archie's words amused Raine. The old man was truly mischievous.

Well, it seemed like Archie wasn't going to emerge from his 'mountain' again.

As the sun set in the west, both Raine and Archie rose to their feet. They were about to leave this peaceful beach.

"Archie, I'm leaving."

Archie looked at Raine and nodded lightly, "Be careful when you pass the Ghost Seas, but as long as you don't mess with those ghost ships, you should be fine. May your journey be smooth. If you get a chance, come back to see me. We can have a proper chat then."

Raine laughed heartily, "I will return! Until we meet again."

........................

A week later, the reorganized bounty squad set sail.

The two Super Battleships, in aircraft carrier mode, along with the Gemini Aircraft Carriers and the submarine fleet from the seafloor, sailed eastward.

There was also a natural barrier between the Sky-class seas and the Dragon-level seas, an area referred to as the "Ghost Seas" by Archie.

In fact, there were legends about ghost ships in many seas, so much so that many of Raine's crew initially mistook him for a ghost ship when they first met him.

However, not everyone was aware of the Ghost Seas, after all, very few could venture this far.

Serving as the natural barrier of the Sky-class seas, due to Dragon King God, almost no vessels have passed through here in the last 160 years.

Archie had once described the Ghost Seas to Raine. Unlike the Satan Abyss and the Forbidden Dragon Area, there were almost no sea monsters in these seas.

But in the broad expanse of the sea stretching 150 nautical miles, there were numerous ghost ships adrift.

These ghost ships were elusive, sometimes suddenly appearing in front of a ship. If a ship collided with a ghost ship, unless it could destroy it, the ghost ship would cling to it like a ghost, unable to be shaken off until the fleet was sunk.

About the Ghost Seas, Archie also mentioned that the number of ghost ships seemed to be increasing.

Although Archie always referred to "his friend" who had ventured into the Ghost Seas, Raine was sure that "his friend" was none other than Archie himself.

When Archie initially entered the Sky-class seas, he had to pass through the Ghost Seas, and again when he returned from the Sky-class seas to the Dragon-class seas, perhaps decades apart.

The time when Archie returned to the Dragon-class seas should have been before the appearance of the Dragon King God.

In other words, it might have been 160 years since Archie last passed through the Ghost Seas.

Raine wondered what the Ghost Seas would be like now.

"Captain, we're about to enter the Ghost Seas," Fancy reminded him.

Raine nodded and opened the intercom, ordering, "Surface fleet, halt. Scout, send in a warship first."

"Aye, Captain."

Scout dispatched an experienced captain to undertake this dive mission. Submarine No.8 entered the Ghost Seas and kept Raine informed about the situation.

"Hello, this is Submarine No.8. We've entered the Ghost Seas. Our radar has not detected any enemy ships, but we seem to see a large number of ghost ships on the sea surface. The quantity is quite frightening."

Raine furrowed his brows. According to Archie, it seemed that the Ghost Seas weren't that difficult to pass through. As expected, after so many years, the number of ghost ships had significantly increased.

"We have traveled 40,000 meters to the east, no ghost ships have been detected at the bottom of the sea."

"Traveled 50,000 meters east, a ghost submarine has been detected 500 meters below. The enemy ship is moving at a speed of 20 knots, posing no threat to us."

"Within a radius of 50,000 meters, a total of 7 ghost submarines have been found, with the highest speed of 22 knots. The maximum dive depth does not exceed 600 meters, we can easily avoid them."

Raine nodded and ordered Submarine No.8 to rejoin the fleet.

"Switch to submarine mode. These warships are likely sunken warships from the past, they are generally weaker underwater, so we can pass through from below."

The decks of the two Super Battleships flipped and four huge turbines retracted to the side of the ship. All joint parts extended steel plates, and in a moment, the ships transformed into a fully sealed form.

The twin aircraft carriers also completed their transformations.

Fourteen warships submerged into the sea, diving to a depth of 1000 meters, and the fleet began to enter the Ghost Seas.

On this journey, the Dad could be said to have encountered no obstructions.

"Hahaha, Captain, you're really clever. We can pass through here easily without having to fight," Onebear laughed.

Raine shrugged, "This is called technical superiority. The level of technology is right here, there's nothing I can do. If the whole fleet was made up of Super Battleships, I could just fly over."

Even Archie probably couldn't imagine that Raine's entire fleet would so easily avoid all the ghost ships.

Jokes aside, Raine still observed those ghost ships on the radar monitor. Strangely, apart from Raine's own system radar, even the shipborne radar system of the Super Battleship couldn't detect these ghost ships.

"These ships are really strange, they're completely undetectable. Fortunately, I upgraded the entire fleet, otherwise, it wouldn't have been so easy for us to pass through this ghost sea area."

Five hours later, the bounty group squad easily passed through the ghost sea area, and the Super Battleship and the Gemini mothership all surfaced.

When Raine and all the crew members saw the world in front of them from the control room glass dome, they were stunned.

"My God... is this the world of the Sky-class sea area?" Avril looked blankly at the world in front of her.

On the Gemini Aircraft Carrier, Trajan opened the door of the control room and walked out of the cabin. The red firelight in the distance reflected on his face. Trajan's eyebrows were locked and he said blankly.

"This...this is not a Sky-class sea area, it should be called Hell Sea Area!"

The so-called Sky-class sea area was not a paradise, it was hell!
