—Starboard! Quick turn! The wind, waves and lightnings are coming! Get ready!

H-Hiiiiie! L-Lightnings... lightnings...!

T-This is bad, I'm already on my limit... lll remember about that time.

When “that man” hit me with a lightning, defeated me and locked in the base of a volcano... Hiiiie!

Get ready? That’s way too crazy! I'll use a bit of brute force! Here, oof!

Wait, what’s with this insanity? Its like the peak of a bad weather —Kyaaaaaa!

I-I've never seen a scary sea like this before!

Everyone, hold onto desperately onto this ship! The next one will come soon! You won't be saved if you get thrown off!!

Uoooooooooh, Typhon! You! You destroyed that sea!!

You foolishly destroyed everything without thinking about anything! Just as “god” created and ordered you!!

I will destroy you! I have to destroy you!!

That's—the reason for l was born! Everything for me! Now—

Dieeeeeeeeeeeee!!! Typhooooooooon!!!

The sea ran wild, the wind blew and multiple lightnings fell in front of one’s eyes, like if they were resonating with the scream of the “black storm."

A huge monster, like if the nature, the disaster was alive. It was right in front of their eyes, coming to assault.

In a hopeless situation, the sailors followed the captain’s instructions to survive.

What in the world is that?!	Just by looking, it's indentical to Typhon!	Right now, he said Typhon...!?

While Typhon’s legs were trembling in fear, he look up to the “dark storm” and spoke.

T... That's“me." There's no mistake. It's me. There's no way I would be mistaken.

After all, he knows about something only l know— about the past I committed.

The past “me” came to kill the present “me”...

Like if he was talking about someone else, Typhon muttered with a half shockedexpression.

.........

Y-Your past “self” came to kill you?! Is that even possible!?

I-I haven’t heard something like that! Are you saying—that something as ridiculous as that is possible?!

It doesn’t matter if it's the past self or the future self, first, you two have to look at the reality.

While Gouryou steered the ship, he calmly answered to Benten and Eita, who were desperately trying to control the ship position.

Uooooooh! Don’t escape Typhon!!

l have to—destroy you! I’ll brutally kill you with my own hands!

I-It's no use! The distance is getting shorter! At this rate... we'll sink!

What should we do, Captain Ahab? Isn't it the time already to take control?

.........

—Hey, Typhon. Where are you going? I don't remember telling you to leave your position.

The “me" who isn’t scared of lightnings... As l thought... he’s the past “me."

Then... if he’s “me”—nobody could be a match on the sea.

No matter how amazing a ship could be... As long as that rule exist, we can't get close.

A rule that can “turn over the sea” —That’s the way I was created.

Big bro Typhon...? Why are you laughing...? What do you mean by created...?

It’s obvious he would say he wants to kill “me." I committed a great sin.

Therefore—l have to receive a punishment. To put it simply, it’s karma.

...He's aiming for “me”. If I leave the ship, he would pursue me.

So meanwhile—captain, and everyone should escape to the northwest.

D-Don’t be stupid! Are you saying we will have to abandon you and only us would escape!?

Well, this is tough, Benten-Chan. That’s right, there’s no other way.

It’s fine for now, but if he get close we’ll get swallowed by the waves— Isn’t that right Gouryou?

...That’s right. Honestly, it’s a miracle that we have been able to endure it.

1 option
Typhon, you can't do that!

That’s right! You can’t! A man from the sea would fight against any sea, you know!?

Forgive me, (PIayer)-han, Eita. I... don’t want to involve you. Please understand.

...Hmph. That’s a nice idea Typhon.

Even if this ship is my sacred artifact— if we get swallowed by the waves and turned over, it would be the end.

1 option
Captain, what are you...?!

However, Typhon. That gets on my nerves! To the point of dying!

The fact that “you would die just as you were told”. I don’t remember such a coward getting on my ship!

.........

Even if the opponent is a monster that soars the skies, even if is called a “god” in exaggerated stories—

Regardless if it’s true or false—No, precisely because of that!

You decide the place you would die! Don’t let anybody choose it!!

.........?!

A huge wave blew away the ship many times. Each time made the ship creak, the sailors were losing strength.

The gigantic “black storm” was immediately getting closer. That hand would reach the ship in no time.

I-It’s no use, it’s catching up us! Mom, brothers, sisters, everyone, I’m sorry...

.........

Captain...! What should we do...? At this rate—

Eita. I’ll teach you one last thing. “A captain always laugh fearlessly.”

Last...? —Uwah!?

Ahab left Eita where everyone was without saying anything, and glared at the calamity right in front of him.

The prosthesis leg fixed the Ahab’s body position a second time. The captain clothes on his shoulders were flapping strongly due to the wind.

He lit his pipe and smoke. His expression became the shadow of his hat and couldn’t be seen.

Phew—my, my. You really endured it well until this moment, my sailors.

You monster. You’re certainly strong. There may not be anyone who could beat you in this sea.

However—it’s unfortunate. Exceptions surely happen anytime, anywhere.

This is—the arrow of Aram that “god” or whatever made me shot others with.

This “whaling ship” is—another sacred artifact. You made me use this.

The “curse” that took away my status as a king, what “make me special” as a human.

This thing that “God” or whatever used to sew people into the ground, in order to not allow them to reach the same stage as him,

It’s annoying being entrusted with something like that though—what? I’m a powerless human. I have to use what it can be used!

...Role of “King”! Rule of “Deprivation”!!

Pierce! White Sperm Whaler!!

Along with Ahab’s words, a huge sacred artifact was shoot from the ship. And then— A roaring sound and a scream resounded—on the alternative wild sea.

Guooooooooooh?!

A scream that could shake everything—Ahab’s sacred artifact pierced the “Black Storm’s” chest.

At that moment—The wind stopped, the sea calmed down and thunders ceased ringing.

—T-The tsunami?! No, the storm itself... stopped?

My sacred artifact sealed his rule. That damn “power”—“denigrates” living beings.

It tore off from him "what he made his special”, causing him to fall to being “just a monster’.

As long as it remains stabbed—he won’t be able to “turn over the sea”.

So that means...he’s now powerless, right?! Hey, if you had such an amazing thing, why didn’t you use it from the—

This sacred artifact has a firing range. It’s useless if it doesn’t have enough distance to reach the ship.

—Everyone, something is approaching! Quick! He’ll start moving!!

Along with Gouryou’s scream, the ship shook more forceful than until now.

What?! What now?! Wasn’t his power sealed?!

—A rope connects the harpoon and the ship! If he runs wild, the ship would! Uwaah!

Even though the waves stopped, the ship kept shaking. Because the “black storm” and the ship were connected.

Even if his rule disappeared, it’s not like that huge body have disappeared to somewhere.

The ship is—! I’ll cut the rope!

No, Eita! If the Sacred Artifact separates from its owner, it’ll lose its power!

It would be better if bow would be a sacred artifact, but if the arrow is the sacred artifact and you cut the rope that connects it—

—A storm would occur once again! If that happen, we would be swallowed by the waves this time for sure... Kyaa!

That’s right. Therefore—there’s no other way other than doing this.

After saying that, Ahab took a knife around 6 inches from his pocket, He threw it to Eita’s direction, and he caught it in a hurry.

Eita, I’ll give you this ship. That way, “it won’t disappear even if I’m not longer here”.

—Eh? Captain, what does suppose to...?

Ignored Eita’s words, who was staring in puzzlement, Ahab looked at Gouryou.

Gouryou, I leave the stemming to you. Show you can do something about it.

......... Yeah.

After that, kick their asses and do whatever you can to escape to the northwest.

You was the only one calm in this mess. I carefully evaluated that aspect.

Is that an order from the Captain? If that’s the case, I can’t disobey.

Makara, assist everyone. I especially entrust you taking care of the brats.

...Got it. Leave it to me.

E-Everyone. ..? What is captain Ahab saying...?

Typhon. Think about it, what do you wish?

...Captain! I—

Don’t hear what other say. Think carefully and come with an answer—by yourself.

1 option
... You can't, Captain!

Ahab looked at [Player]—he laughed with a gentle expression that he never showed before.

That was—like if he was giving the last farewell.

Stop—Stop it Captain! Someone! Someone stop him!!

I won’t forgive it, something like—something like this! Do you pretend to sacrifice yourself?! Something like that won’t become a trend!

Being cool by yourself—doing something like that...! Stop! Are you trying to make tear-jerking story!?

Even if it we were together for a short time— did you acknowledged us as sailors...?!

The way you would do anything in order to survive... Honestly, I didn’t dislike it.

It felt like—l would be watching my own daughter. I’m really grateful, Benten.

!!

—Tch. What a jerk who doesn’t know to read the mood.

Ahab turned his head, and after looking at the faces of all sailors in order—he smiled.

There, just Eita was hanging on everyone’s worried faces— without understanding.

...Ha, hahahah. Don’t make such depressed faces, my beloved sailors!

Here is the place I chose—where I would die. It may be a noisy place filled with brats though—

Ahab’s sacred artifact activated. It was the last order that Ahab made to the ship—

The rope extending from the “harpoon” piercing the “black storm”. That rope detached from the sacred artifact ship.

The ropes was getting far away in blink of an eye. Then finally—Eita realized it.

!!

Oh the rope connected to the sacred artifact connected to the “black storm”. On that rope——was coiled around Ahab’s arm.

—Well. It wasn’t a bad last moment...

At the same time he ended saying those words—His body disappeared to stormy sea like if he was pulled.
