Chapter 525 The last statue

Isohime enters Munakata Taisha Shrine to perform a ritual of exorcism.

Like last time, Kamiya stayed outside the main hall and looked around, hoping to find some useful clues in the Munakata Shrine that only appeared once in 300 years.

About ten minutes later, a small red figure appeared on Okutsu Island close to the shrine.

"Hey!"

Crab Princess jumped from the island into the confines of the shrine. When she landed, her heavy armor trembled.

Appearing at this time, she probably really has no intention of competing for the leadership of the country.

"Little can, why are you here?"

"Let me take a look. Munakata Grand Shrine only appears once every 300 years. Wouldn't it be a pity not to take a look?" Crab Princess looked around seriously, and then didn't forget to reply, "No, I'm not a can! I obviously It has a name!”

"Haha, you are not allowed to be the leader of the country, are you a little unconvinced?"

After all, Zhoumu helped Xie Ji, and with the previous experience, this time helping Ji Ji felt a little sorry for Canned Food.

"What if you are not convinced? I can't beat you, and you can do what you say." Xie Ji curled her lips, with a resigned expression, "And Grandpa Crab said, it may depend on you to guarantee it in the future." The continuation of the clansmen, please tell me not to contradict you, but to be more respectful to you."

"Then you really didn't listen to what Grandpa Crab said."

"Humph."

The little crab girl turned her head away as if she was embarrassed.

"How is Crab Island?" Kamiya asked her again.

"Not too good. Grandpa Crab may not be able to hold on for too long. If the next red tide comes, Crab Island may be..." Jiji Crab showed a frustrated look.

At the end of last episode, Xie Ji became the lord of the country, and the first thing Hai Yiguang did was to consume the energy in the tears of the ocean and repair the crab island.

But this time, she did not become the king.

I still remember that the crab shop owner’s previous estimate was that Crab Island could last another hundred years.But without the auspicious aurora power of Xie Ji, Crab Island probably won't be able to hold on for long and is in danger.

Maybe the next red tide will be completely destroyed.

At that time, we really can only count on Kamiyagawa to take their family and move away from Haiguo.

"I'll take care of Crimson Tide and give you all a happy ending."

Kamiya raised his hand and tapped Crab Girl's red star pocket.

"Don't, don't touch me!"

Maybe it's because of getting used to it, Xiao Canned's reaction is not as intense as before. After getting along with each other recently, the relationship between her and Shen Gu has actually eased a lot.

A powerful alien god who wants to save all the sea people. Although he is more or less partial to the bad mermaids, he is really not annoying.

"To solve the red tide, that's nice to say... Well, I also see that you seem to be very busy and hard recently. However, the red tide has appeared for so long, and no solution has been found, and the cause is not even known. Even if you're good……"

"Will do."

"Well, you say yes. If you can really handle the red tide..."

"Just give me all the conches and pebbles you collected?"

"Eh!? How do you know what I have? I, I won't give it to you! Those were all picked up piece by piece when I was a little crab, and I made good friends later I will give it away! But... But I can treat you to grilled fish, as long as you don’t call me a small can again.”

"Okay, little can."

"You're so annoying! You definitely can't make friends. Only an idiot would want to be friends with you!"

"Well, yes."

Because he thought of the matter of the first week, Kamiya looked at Little Crab Girl with a half-smile.

"What do you mean by that look in your eyes?"

If not really beat.

Crab Princess really wanted to ram the Kamiya River into the floor tiles of Munakata Taisha Shrine with one hammer.

……

Nothing valuable could be found in Munakata Grand Shrine, everything was the same as last time.

But just a few minutes after Kanihime boarded the shrine.

On the side of the huge torii gate standing on the sea, there was a strange movement suddenly.

Kamiyagawa was the first to react.

With a clang, a word was drawn out.

This action startled Crab Girl, but then she also noticed something strange——

A mysterious force caused waves on the calm sea.

The water began to surge slightly, as if something alive was squirming under the surface, preparing to break through the water.

Suddenly, a "click-click" sound, like the sound of loose wood on an old wooden door, came from the water one after another.A huge black shadow surged out, like a ghost breaking through the boundaries of the shrine.

It was an old warship.

The wooden hull is old and covered with shells and salt flowers. From bow to stern, there are armor protections made of planks, covered with iron armor, and full of holes.

The side of the ship is high, the sea water is rolling down, the decayed ship body is leaping with strange faint blue flames, the sails are whistling and swaying, intertwined with evil will-o'-the-wisps and low-pitched whistling.

"That ship girl?"

"Anzhaimaru? Ah——what are you talking about, what is Kanna?"

Kamiya and Crab Princess spoke at the same time.

Little Canned's doubts were not answered, because Kamiyagawa had quick eyes and quickly held a word and the Banshee, and rushed towards the place where Anzhaimaru appeared.

Not right.

It didn't come out last week.

An Zhaimaru rolled towards the Munakata Shrine, and at the bow of the boat, Kamiya saw an unusual thing.

A figurehead.

Why is there a figurehead on the Ataka ship?

It was a statue of a goddess carved in stone, not as big as the western figure heads, somewhat mottled, but lifelike.

The upper body of the goddess leaned forward slightly, her figure was plump and graceful.The sea breeze seems to be blowing from her front, the thin clothes faintly reveal the plump and elastic body of the goddess, the texture of the dress and the carving of the folds are amazing, the skirts and loops fluttering backwards on the chest His hands formed extremely smooth lines, which were clearly like stone statues, but they were full of life-like vitality.

The last time I saw Anzhaimaru, Kamiya didn't seem to notice this small figurehead because it was too far away.

But now it's hard not to notice. The ship's bow statue is emitting a strange light, and it vaguely echoes the atmosphere in Munakata Taisha Shrine.

It's like the feeling of Kanihime and Isohime standing here.

"The carving seems to be Taki Toki no Mikoto-sama. Wait a minute, why is there Munakata's aura that doesn't belong to I and Isohime?"

The belated little can exclaimed.

As Munakata herself, she can feel the power of "the same kind" more than Kamiya.

The third statue in Haiguo is Anzhaimaru, who seldom appears in the sight of the Haizu, sails at an extremely fast speed, and never sees the tail of the dragon?

No, not right.

Anzhaimaru should be just a Fusangshin who has gained some consciousness.

And it seems that consciousness has never been formed.

How could it be a Munakata?

In a blink of an eye, Kamiyagawa had rushed to Anzhaimaru, and summoned Shikigami to help.

This Anzhai Maru is just a ship with some consciousness, and it does not pose much of a threat in itself.

But rushing into Munakata Taisha Shrine like this will definitely have an impact on Isohime who is performing the ceremony.But before Shengu could make a move, the big ship felt a strong oppressive atmosphere, and the ship boards made a crackling sound almost whimpering.

Then immediately turned the bow of the ship and dived towards the bottom of the sea.

"Escape? Mary!"

The red mist surged.

Mary, who had returned to her prime, swayed out of the mist and stood on the bow of the ship.

Her black and red dress was bright and distinct, shaking violently, the huge machete in her hand fell, and sliced ​​off the bow of Anzhaimaru.

Timber splintered.

The ship's figure was separated with some wood, and was caught by several red spirits clinging to the ship, and dragged into the red mist.

The sound on the Anzhai Pill was almost a cry.

But under the signal of Kamiya, Mary did not continue to chase and kill them all, but retreated into the mist again.

Da Anzhai soon dived into the sea and disappeared.

Mary brought the figurehead to Kamiya.

"Crab Girl, come here."

After grabbing the peculiar figurehead, Kamiya greets Kani Ji.

When he turned around, he saw Xiao Can with his eyes closed, his hands clasped together, raised in front of his chest, and he was reciting something very seriously.

"……what are you doing?"

Two or three seconds later, Kanihime stopped moving, and said as a matter of course: "Make a wish, it is said that seeing Anzhaimaru will bring good luck."

"Why on earth do you think ghost ships are a symbol of good luck?"

Kamiya was left speechless.

"Maybe, because it's really hard to see?"

Xiao Can looked like he didn't understand the complaint, so he analyzed and guessed in a serious way.

"Forget it, come here and take a look at this. The aura of Munakata you mentioned just now, is it this?"

"Ah, it seems so."

Crab Princess looked up and down at the statue of Taki Toki.

This vivid stone statue is actually only more than 20 centimeters long, and it is indeed difficult to notice it on the huge Anzhai Maru.Moreover, it is no longer the bright state just now, the appearance has dimmed, and the feeling of blending with Munakata just now is gone.

However, Kanihime can still clearly feel the breath of the same kind from it, but this "same kind" is different from herself and Isohime, and is much weaker.

Therefore, the third statue is not Anzhaimaru.

It's the stone statue itself.

In other words, the third Zongxiang statue in Haiguo is a dead thing, but it is only connected to Anzhai Maru.

"The original breath is not strong, and it is much weaker than that on the Anzhai Maru just now. But this, it seems to be the dead Munakata?"

Kanihime shouted about her discovery.

"So there really is such a thing?"

In an instant, Kamiyagawa's mind was connected with the information he had acquired before——

"There are rumors that as long as you get the third Munakata statue, you will be qualified to enter Munakata Grand Shrine and ascend to the position of country leader."

In Zhijiaoji's Tonghuo memory, this was mentioned.

"If the descendant of the third ocean goddess, Takito Hime, died a long time ago and left no descendants, then the power of Munakata in his body is likely to be separated out in the form of material."

Not long ago, the drug seller also raised such a conjecture on Gao Tianyuan.

So, is there really a third statue of Mune that exists in the form of material in the Sea Kingdom?

But in retrospect, Kamiyagawa and Isohime met An Zhaimaru once before, and they didn't feel such a special aura from An Zhaimaru at that time.

Even Ishime, who was sensitive to the smell of "the same kind", didn't say she had discovered anything special.

It may be true, as the drug seller said, that the power of the precipitated Munakata itself is not as strong as the "living Munakata" such as Kanihime and Isohime.

Maybe it was completely activated after getting close to Munakata Taisha Shrine.

"Obtain the third statue in the form of material, and you will be eligible to compete for the king of the sea country."

Saying this, Kamiya knelt down and touched the statue of Takito Himemune on the ground.

But nothing felt.

It doesn't seem to work.

"Is there such a saying?" Xie Xie wondered, "You also want to be the head of the sea kingdom? But the bad mermaid has been in for a long time, so it's too late, right? Besides, even if this saying is true, you are not a child of the sea. , it is impossible for the sea to respond to you."

"Heirs of the ocean?" Shen Gu withdrew his hand, thinking that I also have subordinates, "Hua Jing."

The ocean is full of water vapor, and the little whale shows up with its big tail in a daze.

After appearing, he silently moved behind Shengu, and grabbed the corner of Shengu's clothes, trying to keep away from the curious little can anyway.

Obviously, the little whale is not simply shy, but committed PTSD.

Xie Ji looks about fifteen or sixteen years old in appearance, and Hua Jing, who is only seven or eight years old in body and mind, naturally classifies her as an older sister.

In addition, the face value exceeds the acceptable threshold of the little whale...

All conditions are met.

So in non-combat situations, he is afraid of Crab Princess.

But if it can fight, the little whale doesn't seem to be afraid of the beautiful sister.

Kamiya didn't quite understand the circuitry in his little head.

"Your... Shikigami? Why are you so afraid of my appearance? Do I look fierce?"

Krabs smiled as kindly as she could at her little whale brother.

But it was okay not to laugh. When he started to laugh, the little whale's small body began to tremble, its big slippery tail slapped uneasily on the floor tiles, and it didn't dare to let go of Kamiya's clothes.

"Stay away from him a little bit... It's a shadow of his childhood not long after he was born. It's very complicated to explain, but you should be proud of it." Kamiya Chuan was also a little helpless, and then touched Huajing's head, "Little whale, go touch the statue underground."

Hua Jing hesitated a little, looked at Xie Ji who was a little far away with a confused face, and then followed the instructions with a big tail.

As soon as his hand touched the Taki Toki statue, the goddess's stone sculpture emitted light again.

The aura reappeared similar to that of Kanihime and Isohime, where the same ancestors resembled the great society.

"Maybe, the so-called rumor 200 years ago is actually true."

The third statue exists on the Anzhai Maru, which rarely appears and is extremely fast.

Also, without being close to Munakata Taisha Shrine, there seems to be no special performance.

It's no wonder that the Sea Clan hasn't found it all this time.

But what Kamiyagawa doesn't understand is why Atazamaru appears here?

This obviously didn't happen last time.

"From my personal point of view, the only thing that is different from last time is that I met Anzhaimaru in advance? Is it because of me, that I attracted the ghost ship? Or, the gathering at Munakata Shrine Two Munakata who are still alive, that's why Atakamaru is attracted?"

When Kamiyagawa was still confused whether he was really attracted by Kanji, in the Munakata Temple not far behind him, a noble and graceful figure was holding a scepter made of gold and inlaid with bright teardrop-shaped sapphires. Facing the dim light of the morning sun, he walked out of the palace gate.

The succession ceremony for Isohime is over.
