Sam along with Chatur, Sandra, and Sagar are all in the sea. Behind them, a group of mermen is coming along with a Black Shark-type beast. It is a Nascent level beasts, but it still took a Pre-transcendent stage Merman to hold it in a chain that was completely wrapped around its body.
They dragged it forcefully and Sagar waved his hand and the Merman left chain. The Shark flashed into a black streak as it moved to get away, but before it could escape, with another wave of Sagar’s hand, the water in the surroundings started moving and created a specific region that made the Shark stay within it.
It glared at the four of them who are just outside that barrier zone. Even though Sagar is a Pre-transcendent stage cultivator, the shark showed no fear. There are teeth protruding out of its mouth. The fangs of the shark are too big to completely fit in and almost looked like a Grin giving it a creepy look.
Sam was amused when he looked at the beast. He didn’t expect to see this beast in a place alike this.
The Great Black Shark.
Yes, the name itself is the Great Black Shark and one must agree that the name is deserving of it.
It is one of the dangerous predators of the sea. They are fast, strong, ruthless and their biting power is as strong as an Initial stage Pre-transcendent stage beast when it is in Late-stage Nascent level Beast.
If a real pre-transcendent stage beast couldn’t handle it and died in its hands, there is still no need to be surprised.
The beast is fearless and it is one of the few that has some resistance to the innate instincts that cause a beast to fear a superior being. Of course, if the difference is too big, then it wouldn’t escape those instincts.
The best part is that the size of the beasts is not much different from a normal shark. The most it could grow is to the size of a Whale-Shark. The largest shark in normal earth. Around eighteen to twenty meters. Even if it becomes a deity and a god, it will still stay that size.
That size along with the speed and strength it could pack, it is a threat to any other beast in the sea at the same level.
"Are you sure you guys are having trouble with these sharks?"
"Yes, why?" Sagar asked in return.
"I can understand why you are so adamant about getting a weapon like this. But are you sure you guys want to capture them? They are strong and efficient, but they are not exactly a pet material."
"We know, but these beasts are too precious to let them die like that. We will try our best to form a contract." Sandra replied.
"You seem to know a lot about these beasts," Sagar said from the side.
Sam didn’t reply and said.
"No offense, but if you really want to catch these, even with my weapon, the user will have to be extremely skilled. I don’t think even a normal Elite would have a way to shoot that. The only time they would have a chance to shoot it is when they are in the middle of its jaws in the process of being bitten in half."
Sagar’s mouth twitched and said.
"No problem. Just show us what you have. We will think of the solution for other problems."
"Then your wish."
Sam swam around the barrier and reached the other end grabbing the attention of the Shark. When he reached the spot he desired to, he signaled Sagar to deactivate the trap.
Sagar hesitated a bit before placing himself in front of Sandra and Chatur and deactivated the trap. The Shark immediately shot towards Sam.
It opened its maw as wide as it can and tried to bite him off.
Sam barely dodged as he looked at the Black Shark changing the direction and coming off.
His body changed and he activated the Partial Fusion with the water element.
He moved in the sea as if he is a part of it. He is just trying to get a hang of the ocean battle and this shark is the best opponent he could ask for.
He didn’t even attack, all he focused on is the defense.
When Sagar saw Sam having fun, he frowned and was about to sound his impatience. But Sam already understood and he thrust himself forward as his speed increased with a jet of water under his feet.
He took out a large metallic object.
It is a Harpoon Gun. But it is not like a normal one.
It mostly looked like a normal one, but the butt of the gun is made differently. There is a few square inches of the rectangular gap in it. He took out a small metallic cylinder from his storage and placed it in the gap. It fit perfectly.
Apart from that, the Harpoon is also a bit different. The spear tip is a bit different, it looked like it was made by joining several smaller metallic pieces.
It is like a Lego Spear.
As he moved around almost as fast as the shark, he dodged its bite once again and aimed at its back, and pulled the trigger.
The cylinder in the butt of the gun almost shook and a jet of air shot out from a hole behind the butt. But the Spear that shot out has an air jet at its tail end and the cable that should be on the tail end was also there but in a different way. It was a metallic cable and it wrapped and welded around the hollow spear shaft and coiled up almost half of it.
The Spear is too fast for a normal Nascent to even see. The Shark sensed a threat and wanted to move but it was already late and the spear lodged itself into its back.
The Shark was surrounded by its own blood that was quickly diffusing into the surrounding water.
The Spectators felt excited when the Shark was caught. But Sandra and Sagar only have their excitement as they saw the shark is still moving, but Sam didn’t show any change in expression.
When the Shark wanted forcefully tug away from the Spear, Sam just stood there with the gun in his hands and when everyone thought he would be pulled over, he didn’t budge, not because he is too heavy or too strong.
After some struggle, the Shark didn’t move an inch. It became extremely still as it was a rock. They didn’t know what happened, because all they say is that there is some extra blood that puffed out of it.
Sam called for Chatur, who swam to him nervously.
"Hold the gun like this and don’t even move. Just stay there."
Sam moved gave him the gun and swam to the Shark. That was roaring in the water. Even though it is not a normal roar that would come from other beasts, anyone can see its anger.
Sam just stood there a foot away from it. He is looking straight into the eyes of the beast. He even placed his hand on it. But the shark didn’t move a bit. Sandra and Sagar are shocked.
They didn’t expect the crazy and ferocious beast a second ago trying to kill him, is not even moving when he placed his hands.
"I am sorry."
Sam said in a low voice and moved. He placed his hand on the spear. At the neck of the spear, there is a small metal protrusion and a guideway in which it sat. He pulled the protrusion back and the Shark gave out a low roar.
After pulling the metallic protrusion back, the spear seemed to have loosened and it came out with just a normal pull.
When the shark was about to move and attack Sam, he held it with both hands tightly and started healing it. At the same time, he threw out the remaining two pearls in its mouth to supplement the remaining energy, but there is a mark left of the shark’s body. There is a large scar.
He didn’t know what to say. He never felt bad about killing a beast for its meat, or for any other purpose for that matter, he didn’t want to torture a creature for his own purpose when it has done no wrong to him. He didn’t like the feeling of that and always felt somewhat repulsive.
Even if it is a human it will not change. He might even feel better if he directly killed them with a single hit, this torture is something he is just against.
After healing and the pearls are absorbed, the Shark is back to full health except for the loss of blood and energy. The beast looked at Sam ferociously and left. It didn’t attack him, but it is still angry. After all, he did attack him.
Sam looked at the leaving beast and when he saw the Pre-transcendent stage Merman that brought it here was about to go after it, he blocked his way and said.
"If you go after it, the next spear will be in your back. He turned to Sandra and said. If you want to have a deal with me, then I want to include the life of that beast in the contract. He lives our partnership lives. If we can agree on that, then we can discuss it further.
I left a scar that could be seen from the range of this gun. And every time I come here I will find it. The moment I couldn’t find that guy, you will understand how I can break the contract."
