About a minute later, the surface of the sea exploded with a BOOM. Sun burst into the sky, wreathed in a cloud of mist. Its golden scales glittered in the sunlight, and a brilliant rainbow arched behind it like a fantastical bridge.
Baofeng flew steadily onward, the azure ocean stretching out below.
After flying another two hundred kilometers, the sea ahead suddenly became lively.
Hundreds, even thousands, of enormous flying fish leaped from the water. They spread their fins, as vibrant as butterfly wings, and glided several meters above the sea, carving graceful arcs through the air.
Beneath them, massive dark shadows flickered in and out of view within the deep blue water. It was a school of Demonized Sharks, their cavernous mouths wide open as they chased the airborne prey.
It was a three-dimensional hunt, with the flying fish using the sky as their sanctuary to escape the deadly pursuit from below.
