Chapter 341: Kun!
Ryuunosuke was now deep beneath the ocean’s surface.
The currents surged around him with a terrifying force, pulling everything into the heart of an underwater vortex. Yet, Ryuunosuke didn’t resist. He allowed himself to be dragged along, his body perfectly in sync with the rhythm of the sea.
As the one chosen by Poseidon, the Joyboy, Ryuunosuke shared an innate bond with the water. If he truly wished, this level of current wouldn’t be able to budge him an inch. But right now, he had no reason to resist.
He was looking for sothing—and he had just found it.
At the center of the underwater vortex, the storm’s eye opened like a gaping maw. Within it pulsed a strange force, and Ryuunosuke’s senses sharpened. The sa presence he’d detected earlier flared back to life—massive, ancient, alive.
Puff!
Ryuunosuke passed through what felt like a thin mbrane. A faint shimr rippled around him as he entered another space entirely. The chaotic currents outside vanished instantly, replaced by a calm, otherworldly silence.
And before him... floated a colossal creature.
It lood in the darkness like a subrged mountain. Even compared to the giant lanternfish Ryuunosuke had encountered in the New World, this beast was far bigger—monstrous in scale, ancient in presence.
What drew his attention most, though, was the powerful current still gushing from the creature’s body. Upon closer inspection, Ryuunosuke realized it ca from the beast’s blowhole—this terrifying whirlpool was rely its breath.
"...Human?"
A deep, thunderous voice bood directly into his mind. It didn’t echo through the water—it bypassed sound entirely.
"You... You’re speaking?" Ryuunosuke blinked.
Ding!
[Congratulations, host. You have awakened the Ability to Hear All Things.]
[Congratulations, host. You have been recognized by the Undersea Overlord, Yaluo. Reputation 10,000.]
Ryuunosuke’s eyes widened. The Observation Haki he’d trained tirelessly, the one that refused to break through, had just awakened to a higher level—he could now hear the voice of the world itself.
"You bear the scent of divinity," the creature continued, voice clearer now. "You... have been chosen by Poseidon."
"You can sense that?" Ryuunosuke asked, intrigued.
"If so... please," the creature pleaded. "Help ."
This took Ryuunosuke aback.
The system had called this creature the Undersea Overlord—a being of unfathomable strength, a myth even in the New World’s strangest tales. Why would sothing like this need help?
"I’m Ryuunosuke, Joyboy of Poseidon," he replied slowly. "If there’s sothing I can do to help, I’m willing to hear it out. But... what exactly are you doing down here? And why generate such violent currents?"
"This," the creature rumbled, "is not by my will. Long ago, a woman nad Sester placed under a command I cannot disobey. I’ve been trapped in this place ever since."
"A woman?" Ryuunosuke frowned.
"Yes. I cannot move. I cannot stop breathing. All I can do... is wait."
It reminded Ryuunosuke of Zou, the island carried by the massive elephant Zunesha. That ancient beast too was bound by so unknown command, fated to wander the seas.
And now this Undersea Overlord—Yaluo—was in the sa situation.
"Are there more like you?" Ryuunosuke murmured. "Could all these ancient creatures be pawns in soone else’s plan?"
"What do you need from Poseidon?" he asked aloud.
"If she must sacrifice herself, I won’t allow it."
"There is no need for sacrifice," the creature replied. "I rely need to be renad. Only through that can the command binding be lifted."
"...Renad?" Ryuunosuke raised an eyebrow. "You need a new na to break free?"
"Yes. And as the Chosen one of Poseidon, you have that power too. If you na , I will be freed. And in return, I will owe you a great debt. I will serve you loyally."
The world truly had gone mad.
First it was Elephant Lords carrying islands, now renaming sea monsters could break ancient seals?
Still, it was better than blood rituals.
Ryuunosuke crossed his arms, staring at the massive beast before him.
"Fine," he said at last. "From now on... your na will be Kun."
The na echoed through the ocean like a drumbeat.
Suddenly, the sea trembled. A strange glow radiated from Ryuunosuke’s right hand, and a golden character—"Kun"—etched itself onto the back of it before fading beneath the skin.
It didn’t hurt, but the sensation was... heavy. Symbolic.
Ryuunosuke grumbled. "I’m not trying to look like a gangster here..."
"I hear and obey," the creature—now Kun—declared solemnly. "Your word is law. I will no longer remain still."
Ryuunosuke gave a faint nod. "Good. For now, follow . We’re heading to the New World. I also need to et with Shirahoshi."
"Understood, Master Joyboy."
With a gentle yet enormous motion, Kun slid beneath Ryuunosuke and carried him upward, cutting through the sea like a torpedo. Despite his size, Kun was astoundingly fast.
Bang!
Within seconds, Ryuunosuke burst through the surface and hovered over the ocean on Kun’s back. Off in the distance, the familiar silhouette of Mont Blanc ship bobbed patiently on the waves.
Ryuunosuke had expected Mont Blanc to leave by now, but clearly the old explorer was more persistent than he looked.
Guiding Kun over, Ryuunosuke jumped off and landed on deck.
"Mont Blanc," he greeted, "I’ve found what I was looking for."
"You made it back alive..." Mont Blanc exhaled in relief, though his expression remained a little dazed as he glanced toward the massive shadow beneath the waves.
"As thanks for your help, take this."
Ryuunosuke tossed over a small pouch—heavy with golden trinkets from the legendary Golden Country.
"Use it well. You can head back now."
Couliquet opened the pouch, eyes wide at the gleaming contents. For a mont, he was speechless.
By the ti he looked up again, Ryuunosuke was already disappearing into the sea atop his new companion.
He didn’t chase after him. He knew better.
Whatever battles awaited the Dragon Hunter Pirates, they were far beyond his world.
