"I bet my head on it! They definitely mean harm to the Captain! We must immediately deploy the Hope Island Navy to the Mist Sea!" Deep shouted excitedly.
"Now that the crisis has just passed, you know well the situation in Earth Sea. Initiating a war at this time? Do you want Hope Island to completely collapse?"
"What does that matter? Compared to the Captain, what are these things? We suffer; they won't have it easy either!"
"The two of you, stop arguing. The Heike Clan's God was previously our ally; perhaps they just took the Captain away while also dealing with Darkness."
"I agree with that. The Captain might have encountered some issues temporarily. Maybe after some time, he will return on his own, just like those years past."
