The rain started falling from the dark cloudy sky as the thunder rumbled in the distance.
The seas around the icy battlefield were raging with massive mountain-sized waves.
It was almost like the sea itself was furious about the battle happening in the surface world.
And without Jeremiah, those mountain-sized waves would've already swept away everyone in the icy battlefield.
However, with his sea-commanding powers, he kept the mountain-sized waves at bay, preventing any casualties from occurring.
"This is crazy!"
Onboard one of the navy battleships, a couple of reporters were taking notes on their notebooks, documenting every little thing happening on the battlefield.
There was even a cameraman, recording the sight of the massive waves and the destructive battle happening.
They were at Navy Fort when the alarms went off, and their reporting instincts immediately kicked in.
They boarded one of the navy battleships and came here alongside them.
"This will be one of the biggest stories in the current age! A massive prison break happening over in the Downed Prison, and the navy came to stop them!"
The lead reporter said with excitement.
They were already in contact with their news headquarters, and so they were ready to post the news as soon as possible, whenever this situation ended.
While there was this huge battle happening near them, they weren't all too worried, as the navy was here.
The navy had about fifteen times the people that the criminals had, and not to mention that the Fleet Admiral and the four Navy Admirals were here as well.
Alongside that, there were also Navy Vice Admirals, and Rear Admirals.
"What should we do…?"
Behind one of the burning rubbles of the destroyed ship, Julian asked with a whisper in his tone.
He and Kiernan were just hiding away.
"Our transport was supposed to come with a camouflaged ship, but now with the navy here, they might be here in their usual navy ship…
"There are just so many of these navy ships that I can't tell which one it is."
Kiernan said.
"If we delay our departure too long, it will be even harder to escape. These criminals can't hold out forever, y'know."
Julian said.
While hiding, he didn't forget to gaze in the direction of Ethan Blackforest and felt his anger spike up.
However, he contained his overwhelming emotions.
He didn't want to make any more trouble for Kiernan and go foolishly try to kill Ethan Blackforest once again.
It was obviously going to end in failure.
Ethan wasn't participating in the fighting and just kept barking orders behind the entire navy army.
There were also Admirals Karl-Michael and King Rederic by his side, so he would have to somehow fight two admirals while attempting to kill Ethan.
He was only Martial Master, so there was less than zero percent chance of success!
At the skies above the icy battlefield, Big Maestro opened his large mouth, and it was as if his mouth turned into a vacuum because everything around him was being sucked in.
Renette couldn't fight against that sucking force, and thus, she used one of her wings to cut into his big belly.
The blood spewed.
"Ahh!"
Big Maestro shouted loudly, and then, he vomited everything out of his mouth that he had swallowed.
It was everything from cannonballs to pieces of broken ship and food.
The vomit shot Renette out of the air, and she crashed back on the ground, but her wings dampened her fall.
Surrounded by navy soldiers from all sides, Rochan danced with sword in hand and sliced apart the closest enemies with precise movements.
He looked untouchable, but in that moment, three men stopped his advancement and clashed swords with him.
The four swords clashed together in a symphony of metal and sparks.
"Ah…"
Rochan looked at the three men and stepped back.
"Your escape ends here, scum."
Vice Admiral, Olivander, said with a sword in hand.
He had silvery hair with a beautiful white cloak of the navy and eyes that were as deep as the ocean floor.
"Are you the mastermind behind this escape?"
Vice Admiral AJ asked, narrowing his gaze.
He was a brownish-haired man with hazel eyes, thin lips, and a stern expression that never seemed to soften.
"He is leading this sorry group of criminals. I think it is safe to assume that he played a big hand in the escape."
Vice Admiral, Rolex, said.
He was a blond-haired gentleman, wearing the white cloak jacket of the navy, and held an ordinary navy sword that an ordinary navy soldier would receive from the navy.
"Argh!"
Rochan screamed and swung his sword at Vice Admiral Olivander, but it got parried by AJ.
It was instantly followed with a quick stab by Rolex, and Rochan brought his sword down at his blade.
The sparks flew.
Olivander pressed forward, closing the distance between them, and rained Rochan with powerful sword hacks.
Rochan's saber sword moved through the air, parrying the hacking strikes, and he kept his ground surprisingly enough.
"This strength is very much at the top of the Martial Legend hierarchy, but in the end, there are three of us!"
AJ said, followed Olivander's lead, and drew the first blood by cutting Rochan's cheek with a quick sword slash.
Rolex repeatedly stabbed his sword, tearing through Rochan's defenses, and left him riddled with stab wounds.
"…"
Rochan staggered backwards, and at that moment, the flames climbed up the blade of his sword and covered him in a fiery blaze.
The flames had healing properties that instantly cauterized his wounds.
At the Fleet Admiral's ship, Ethan watched the ongoings of the battle with his arms crossed, and then he asked.
"King Rederic. When are your reinforcements coming?"
"They should be here shortly, but by the looks of it, it does not look like we will be needing any."
King Rederic said with a smile after seeing the situation on the battlefield.
Despite many casualties on the navy's side, the criminals were in a very bad state, and they wouldn't be able to last long.
…
Close to the icy battlefield, in the surrounding seas.
With smoke rising to the sky, countless navy battleships were destroyed, and covered in flames so thick that they obscured the moon.
The flags of the navy battleships held King Rederic's fleet's ensignia, but now… his fleet was completely destroyed.
Through the fire and smoke, countless ships sailed through, and each flag was black with skull and crossbones.
