Looking at the people kneeling in front of them, Caesar and the other two fell silent.
Luke and Bell waited for Caesar's decision.
Caesar was the captain, so it was naturally up to him to decide whether he would take action or not.
"I understand."
After a long silence, Caesar said softly.
Perhaps when a person said it, there might be some personal feelings involved.
However, a man who was recognized by everyone was definitely not a coward.
Caesar was interested in Marcus. His criteria for selecting crew members was very simple.
As long as you have the courage to risk your life and face death calmly.
Basically, it was enough. Generally speaking, people with the above two qualities would not easily break their promises.
Strength could be made up by hard work.
However, one's innate character could not be changed.
Caesar did not want his crew to have cowards who were afraid of death.
Marcus was very much in line with Caesar's temper.
Even the most vicious pirates did not want their crew to be two-faced traitors.
A moment of courage might be very simple, but after failing once, he still dared to complete his dream without fear of death.
This was very rare.
"Is it going to be a big fight?"
Lu, who was eating a drumstick, smiled and said.
He didn't know the North Sea Monster, nor did he know how powerful it was.
However, Caesar had made his decision. Even if it was a mountain of blades or a sea of flames, he would accompany Caesar to brave it.
Although Bale did not say anything, he silently took out his guns.
Lorenz Island, back coast.
It was a huge cliff, and there was a stone sculpture of the North Sea Demon beside the cliff.
This was once an altar used to worship the North Sea Demon.
The residents of Lorenz Island, who were once superstitious, tried to stop the North Sea Demons from killing at will by worshipping them.
However, a wild beast was a wild beast after all. It was impossible for the North Sea Demon to understand these things.
As usual, it hunted every year.
Marcus came to the altar with his bow on his back.
Marcus looked at the sea below the altar calmly.
He took down his longbow, drew out the bow he had prepared, and placed it on the bowstring.
"Pa!"
He threw the blood bag that he had prepared earlier into the sea.
The blood bag smashed into the rolling sea, and the blood dyed the sea red.
Marcus collected the blood of many wild beasts to lure out the North Sea Monster.
The sea was dyed red with blood, and Marcus 'eyes became sharp.
Soon, the surface of the sea began to churn violently.
Marcus was also a little nervous. Last year, he didn't even see the appearance of the North Sea Monster clearly.
He was hit by one of the tentacles of the North Sea Demon and almost died.
Having grown up listening to the legends of the North Sea Monster, he was about to face this legendary monster for the first time.
Even though Marcus had already prepared himself, he still couldn't help but feel nervous.
"Gulp, gulp, gulp!" "Boom! Boom!"
A large number of bubbles began to appear on the surface of the sea, and the sea became more and more turbulent. The waves crazily crashed against the cliff.
"Gulp!"
Marcus swallowed his saliva, but he still stood firmly on the altar and looked at the sea.
The air seemed to have frozen, and Marcus could not hear anything.
He looked at the sea in front of him with all his attention, nervously waiting for the monster that was about to arrive.
One second, two seconds, one minute. Time seemed to have frozen.
Marcus, who felt like years, felt that time was so long for the first time.
?" Boom!"
After an unknown period of time, the surface of the sea erupted like a volcano.
Two huge tentacles shot up from the sea like pillars.
Big! It was very big!
Marcus finally saw the monster of the North Sea. A huge octopus appeared in front of him.
Marcus was as small as an ant in front of him.
The North Sea Monster also noticed the ant that was deceiving it. Its eyes, which were as big as a train head, looked at the ant.
So it was this monster that had been attacking their village for so many years?
Was such a monster really something that humans could fight against?
Marcus gulped and thought with a trembling voice.
No matter how much preparation was done, no matter how much awareness was made.
When Marcus saw this monster for the first time, he couldn't help but doubt himself.
"Roar!"
The North Sea Demon let out a thunderous roar as it looked at the ant who had deceived it.
Countless tentacles slapped the surface of the sea crazily, raising huge waves.
The roar of the North Sea Monster woke Marcus up.
Looking at the huge monster in front of him, his eyes slowly became determined.
He thought of his sister and his father.
He was no longer a weak child. He wanted to protect this village.
"Even so, I will never allow you to harm this village again!!!
Even if I have to gamble my life, I will kill you monster!!!”
Although Marcus was trembling, he thought of his father and sister. He roared and pulled the bow.
The bow and arrow that carried Marcus 'endless anger was placed in Marcus' hand.
"Swoosh!"
The bowstring was pulled back and the arrow flew out quickly, carrying Marcus 'will towards the North Sea Monster.
"Kacha!"
Reality was reality. Marcus 'ordinary bow hit the North Sea Monster's head and bounced off before it could even penetrate its skin.
The skin of the North Sea Demons that lived in the deep sea all year round had long been forged by the sea pressure to be as hard as steel.
Marcus was too weak in front of the North Sea Monster, who mainly fed on the King of the Inshore Seas.
Seeing the ant that was trying to attack it, the huge North Sea Monster was enraged.
The huge tentacle of the monster of the North Sea smashed toward Marcus with a strong wind sound.
Those huge tentacles made people unable to muster up the courage to resist.
Marcus didn't doubt that he would be turned into meat paste.
Marcus 'expression changed, and he quickly rolled away.
"Pa!"
The huge tentacle smashed heavily on the altar, and the altar was directly shattered by the huge force of the North Sea Monster.
Countless cracks appeared on the ground of the altar, and the old altar began to shake.
"Swoosh!"
Marcus shot again. This time, his arrow hit the fragile eye of the North Sea Monster.
"Crack!"
Marcus 'arrow was deflected again.
Even though the eyes of the North Sea Monster were a relatively weak part of its body.
However, Marcus was still unable to cause any damage to the North Sea Monster.
"Woo!"
After being attacked by the ants in front of it again and again, the North Sea Demon was furious and roared loudly.
The ear-piercing sound drowned out the sound of the waves and resounded across the coast.
Marcus looked like he was in pain, and blood flowed out of his ear.
Reality was reality, even for powerhouses.
Not to mention a giant octopus like the North Sea Demon, even a giant sea king could be easily killed.
However, to Marcus, who was an ordinary person in the North Sea, the monster of the North Sea was like a monster in ancient mythology.
Marcus, who was bleeding from his ear canal, supported his body shakily and raised his longbow again.
"Go to hell!
Bastard!"
Marcus roared and shot again.
Even if he had to gamble his life, he would do it all!
He also wanted to attack this monster that had brought his father and sister along!
Even if he died, even if he only injured this monster.
Even if it was just a little injury to this monster, it would be good!
He didn't care. He wouldn't run away anymore.
He was no longer the child who could only watch as his father and sister were captured and hide in fear.
He was a warrior!
A warrior who gambled his life!
The arrow, which was filled with Marcus 'will, shot at the North Sea Monster with Marcus' will.
" Puchi!!!"
The arrow, which was filled with Marcus 'faith, finally penetrated the North Sea Monster's defense and entered its eyes.
"Woah! Woo!"
The North Sea Monster roared in pain.
Four or five tentacles that were like pillars that supported the sky bombarded the cliff crazily.
The powerful force began to shatter the entire cliff.
The ground shook violently. Marcus, who had exhausted all his strength, could not stand steadily and knelt on the ground.
A tentacle that carried the anger of the North Sea Demon lashed out at him like a collapsed pillar.
Marcus, who was lying on the ground, looked at the North Sea Monster in pain and smiled.
He was already satisfied to be able to injure this monster.
