Hades approached a scare apple and crouched down, locking eyes with it with a rather indifferent gaze. "Huh?" The scare apple stared back at Hades with a pair of dot-like eyes.
Eye Attack —!!!
Purple light flashed in Hades's eyes, releasing a shockwave that instantly swept across the entire Shock Apple Island.
"Urghhh—!!!" The scare apple closest to Hades had an increasingly ferocious and twisted expression.
"..." The purple light in Hades's eyes faded as he stopped the Eye Attack. If he continued, the scare apple would faint and lose its sugar content.
Looking at the scare apple's exaggerated expression, Hades manifested an instrument resembling a scanner in his hand. This was a specialized scanner he had materialized based on his analysis of the expression principles of scare apples from anime.
Hades plucked the scare apple before him and scanned it for analysis. Looking at the displayed number, he smiled with satisfaction and said:
"Level 100, not bad."
Afterwards, Hades scanned the other scare apples on the surrounding trees. Their levels were all around 95, which was quite good.
Hades waved both hands, summoning a gust of wind that swept all the scare apples from the trees into the extradimensional space where he stored his ingredients. Time did not flow there, keeping everything forever fresh.
After scavenging almost all the scare apples on the island, Hades prepared to leave. Arriving at the coast, he extended his right hand, turned his palm, and a yu-gi-oh! card appeared between his fingers.
Without a word, Hades threw the card. A flash of blue light, and a massive figure appeared in the sea.
"Roarrr—!!!" It had a thick, elongated body the pale blue color of seawater, adorned with red fins. It possessed two dragon heads, one above the other. The upper head wore pale blue scale armor, while the lower head wore a white cartilage helmet.
[Sea Dragon God - Neo-Tidalus] (Level: 8 / Attribute: WATER / Race: Sea Serpent / ATK: 2900 / DEF: 1600)
"Roarrr...!!" Neo-Tidalus lowered both its upper and lower heads towards Hades, emitting a docile growl. Hades patted each of Neo-Tidalus's heads.
Then, he jumped onto the upper head and said flatly, "Let's go."
"Roarrr~~!!" Neo-Tidalus roared in response, then turned and swam in a certain direction. There was no specific destination; everything was left to fate.
Hades sat cross-legged on Neo-Tidalus's head. In the vast ocean, the giant sea dragon carried Hades along, resembling an immortal banished to the mortal world for a leisurely journey.
After an unknown period of swimming, Hades, while meditating, sensed an aura rising from the deep sea. Judging by the aura's size, it seemed to be a fish as large as a whale.
"Stop, Neo-Tidalus." Hades spoke softly. Neo-Tidalus immediately halted upon hearing him.
Mooooo—!!!
A whale's cry echoed across the sea area. A whale with cow-like patterns on its body surfaced. Seeing it, Hades stroked his chin and said:
"I remember it's called a Milk Whale. The milk sprayed from its blowhole supposedly tastes pretty good. I'll collect it later."
Awoooooo—!!!
Just as the Milk Whale was about to produce milk, a sudden roar was heard. Hades turned to see a giant purple sea urchin with a gaping, snarling maw charging towards the Milk Whale.
(Army-Destroying Sea Urchin: Capture Level Lv.27)
"A mere sea urchin, daring to act recklessly in my presence." Hades narrowed his eyes. As far as he knew, the Milk Whale must not be disturbed while producing milk, or it would refuse to do so.
Hades used his will to lift the Army-Destroying Sea Urchin, sealing its large mouth to prevent it from making noise. Then, he created a small black hole out of thin air, silently annihilating the Army-Destroying Sea Urchin.
"Alright, it's about time to produce milk." After dealing with the Army-Destroying Sea Urchin, Hades sensed the aura from the Milk Whale. It was almost ready to produce milk.
Mooooo—!!!
The Milk Whale let out a long cry, and its blowhole began to spray a huge column of milk.
Watching the fragrant, sparkling milk in the air, Hades greedily licked his lips. With a wave of his hand, he created a giant milk tank out of thin air. A powerful suction force appeared at the tank's opening, drawing the scattered milk from the air into it.
After collecting all the milk, Hades beckoned with a finger. The milk tank flew to his side. He took a small taste of the milk inside, letting out an "Mmm~~!!" sound, his face showing an expression of rapture.
The milk was as smooth as silk and not cloying at all, making one somewhat infatuated.
"You try some too." Hades used his will to control the milk tank, moving it in front of Neo-Tidalus's two heads.
"Roarrr~~!!" Neo-Tidalus dipped both heads into the milk tank, drinking the milk inside, occasionally emitting delighted cries. It seemed to find the milk delicious too.
After tasting enough, Hades stored the milk tank in his extradimensional space. Neo-Tidalus licked the residual milk from the corners of its mouth, looking somewhat reluctant to part with it.
"Neo-Tidalus, go there." Using his omniscient and omnipotent power, Hades saw an island in the distance that resembled a multi-layered hamburger.
"Roarrr~~!!" Neo-Tidalus roared and swam towards the indicated direction.
Not long after, Neo-Tidalus brought Hades to Hamburger Island. Hades stood up and said to Neo-Tidalus:
"Neo-Tidalus, you stay here. I'll go take a look on the island."
After speaking, Hades vanished in a flash, arriving on Hamburger Island. Turning around, he immediately saw a giant berry tree with a very unique shape, like several dragons emerging from the ground. The dragon-head parts resembled transparent domes containing countless red berries inside.
(Earth Berry: Capture Level Lv.60)
Looking at the Earth Berry, Hades smiled and said, "Not bad. The Guardian Dragons of the Underworld will surely like these. I'll take them too."
After speaking, Hades used his will to harvest the Earth Berries, leaving none behind. Spotting other Earth Berries nearby, he immediately plucked them and stored them in his extradimensional space.
After picking all the Earth Berries, Hades turned and vanished from the spot, returning to Neo-Tidalus's head. He fed it two Earth Berries, making it so happy it wriggled its body, churning up the sea in the area.
Afterwards, Hades retrieved Neo-Tidalus, reverting it to card form, and prepared to summon another Guardian Dragon for transportation.
