On seeing Eros, Commander Half bra covered her exposed chest with one hand while longing to reach her sword with the other.
But Eros was not in the mood to give her attention just yet. He had to first teach this unwanted scaly guest a lesson.
"Oh!" Eros raised a brow at it, "so you are angry. But you dare to raise your filthy fins on the prize I have my eyes on!"
The Shark-man attacked. Its shark claws longed for Eros's head.
Commander half bra saw this. And wanted to help. After all, Eros was just a normal human being. There was no way that a human could stand the blow of a cultivator.
But she found that she was not at all in a good condition to do so. her body felt weak.
She reached for the blood flowing down her back, and that was when she saw a greenish substance mixed in it, "poison!" she muttered lowly.
However, Eros was not in need of her help. He moved out of the way, and just in time too.
The longest of the beast's claws was only an inch to his head. Any less, and Eros's face would have been cut deep.
"Hmmm! not bad," Eros complimented, "but you lack true flair for battle. My younger sister Athena packs a better punch," Eros laughed.
The Shark-man might not have understood what Eros was blabbing about, but it definitely understood that sarcastic laugh at his attacks.
the shark-man lunged forward with attack after attack. He would hit the barrels on the ship or even the mast, but his attacks never made it to Eros.
The illusion that the claws were always a bit away from reach was there, but it just never clicked.
The others fighting against each other both Shark-men and women paused and turned to watch the fight. None paid any more attention to their own battles.
The reason was that Eros's fight with the shark man did not at all look like it was a fight.
This was more like an adult teasing a child, and the child throwing a tantrum everywhere.
This was incredible to the eyes. Eros did nothing except dodge, and he did it with a smile.
Commander Half bra looked at him and observed his footwork. However, no matter how hard she looked, she just couldn't figure it out.
His legs moved like they would entangle, but still swayed just past each other, leaving little after images behind.
It was a kind of ethereal dance. It was totally confusing, but for some reason, the eyes could not peel away from it.
Even the other shark men felt the deep-seated need to watch him continually move his legs.
How could they not? this was footwork that was out of this world. It was breath taking dance.
*Ethereal Dance!*
Eros smiled as he moved.
By now, the entire ship had gotten silent. The only thing that could be heard was the growling of the shark man attacking Eros and the noiseless footwork that the old man displayed.
Although Eros smiled, he was actually quite angry internally.
As far as he was concerned, he was not displaying the full work of the Ethereal dance. In fact, he was not even bringing out an inch of the true magnificence of it.
This move he used was of stages, and even at the lowest stage, he had to make a subbranch for it.
That was the only way this body and the cultivation he had could manage it.
this was because the technique was of god rank.
There were many rankings for techniques and they all ranked based on the ability, level of cultivation and even complexity. freewebn(o)vel
There were also divided into Attack techniques, Defense techniques, Movement Techniques, and Combination techniques.
Of course, these had their own subcategories. For example, the technique he was using allowed for movement and is classified as a movement technique, but it could also be called a Defense technique, as it prevented the opponent from landing a blow.
However, it was only classified this way because of its current form.
If Eros should use this technique at its next level, his movement could produce airwaves that could be used to attack his opponent and therefore an Attack technique.
Such a complicated technique was simply called a combination Technique as it carried more than one form. free(w)ebnov(e)l
The shark man breathed heavily. Eros stopped, "Hmmm! you are done already? I thought maybe we could dance some more. Especially because of our audience."
The Shark-man growled. It was furious.
Its Claws became longer and there suddenly glowed like the light from the moon.
The Shark man was a fair distance away from Eros. It waved its hands, and two sets of blue claws shot towards Eros.
"GRANDDAD!!!"
"MASTER!!!"
"BARON!!!"
Dan, Jimmy and commander half bra screamed in unison.
However, they had truly underestimated him.
Eros used Ethereal steps once more, dodging the attack on his life.
*Crash!*
The attack destroyed a barrel behind Eros.
"Hmmm!" Eros saw the destroyed Barrel behind him, and he frowned. This Shark-man had just used a technique.
From the looks of it, Eros could tell that this was a bloodline technique.
He instantly decided to take this Shark man a bit seriously.
Eros held his walking cane in a sword-like position. He placed one hand behind his back.
His chest was out and his form was incredibly straight. Even his small pot belly had aligned perfectly with his straight frame.
There was currently no pillar that was straighter than him. His kind old man face had lost its smile, and his eyes looked as sharp as the tip of an arrow.
With the light of the full moon on him, he looked like the descent of lightning.
Jimmy and Dan had known him the longest here, and even they could not recognize him.
His demeanour had taken a full change.
He gave the impression that there was no army and or defence he could not pierce through.
The Shark-man rushed at him, and Eros also moved.
Not many saw how he did it. But the shark man...
