CH. 37 - Mystery of Haku

Haku's body wriggled in the water like he was preparing himself before a fight. His head swayed to the right and left as well as his body and tail fin. Meanwhile, two pairs of Haku's legs seemed to be gripping the water several times, as if they were preparing to tear apart anyone who interrupted his nap.

The small movements made by Haku in fact had a large enough impact, rocks the size of the adult body scattered in various directions due to the water waves caused by the movement of Haku. For a while Zhou Fu seemed to adjust to the previously calm state of the water now becoming bumpy.

A few seconds after Haku wriggled, his body shot towards Zhou Fu, making Zhou Fu accelerate the pace of his movement in the water towards the surface. According to him, fighting in the depths of the ocean was the same as giving up lives for free. Each ocean depth has different pressures on the human body.

The more you are at depth, the greater the pressure of the water. This besides being able to slow down Zhou Fu's movements, also became a big gap for him to immediately meet defeat. Swimming close to the surface would give Zhou Fu a chance to last longer as he sought to solve the mystery of Haku's verse.

Damn it!!!

Zhou Fu cursed once his path to the surface was blocked by Haku. With such a large body, it was no wonder that Zhou Fu had been caught by Haku in just one slip. The dragon-headed crocodile was now opening its mouth wide, its long whiskers seemed to meander around the nose and mouth. His tail fins had curled up a circle with the intent to block all of Zhou Fu's steps.

Now, Zhou Fu was being watched by hundreds of pairs of eyes attached all over Haku's body. The spy looks like he is showing a stare of victory because his prey even lost before successfully attacking. But, it wasn't Zhou Fu's name to just give up.

Zhou Fu once defeated a giant whale as a boy. At that time, he let his body swallowed by marine mammals because attacking from inside the enemy's body will immediately be able to hit important parts of the body of the creature.

This time, it seemed like Zhou Fu wanted to do the same, only that he immediately remembered one thing. Haku is different from whales. Haku had pointed and large fangs while the whale that swallowed Zhou Fu as a child was a type of toothless whale. It could have been, Zhou Fu crumbled into flesh crumbs before successfully beating Haku's body from the inside.

In the seconds that Haku would devour Zhou Fu's body round and round, Zhou Fu channeled a deep energy in his hand, getting ready to smash through some of the eyes that were staring at him with a soft look. One punch from the punch without a shadow, it could make some eyes from Haku will suffer damage. Of course it's gonna hurt.

A punch without a shadow!!!

Zhou Fu smashed his fist into one of Haku's eyes which was in the abdomen.

BUUGG!!!!

Blood was pouring out very hard. But it was not from Haku's injured eyes, but rather the back of Zhou Fu's hand that had just dealt a blow. It was the first time that Zhou Fu had actually experienced bleeding when giving an attack. Obviously Haku is not an indiscriminate creature!

Damn it!!! How could that be!

Zhou Fu complained while holding the back of his injured hand. He did not think at all if the scales of Haku's eyes when closed turned out to have a hard surface as hard as steel and sharp as a sword. The scales had small thorns that could injure anyone who attacked them. Haku closed the spy on the scales when the blow of Zhou Fu landed.

All righty! The first attempt does not always have to work!

Zhou Fu flicked his bloody hand, then stomped his two hands down simultaneously. This made Zhou Fu's body dart down like a bullet. It was a move that Haku had not thought of. Haku is angry that his prey is out of his control.

Meanwhile, Zhou Fu made use of his body free from the circle of Haku's body to launch attacks from all sides. Zhou Fu tried to injure Haku with a deep power attack so that his hand would not come into direct contact with Haku's jagged scales.

After several Zhou Fu attacks on the sidelines of the barbed scales, Haku opened hundreds of pairs of eyes of his scales. Haku seemed to want to keep an eye on Zhou Fu's agile movements. Sure enough, once all of Haku's pairs of eyes opened again, Zhou Fu had absolutely no chance to attack.

Haku like throwing a mocking smile when he saw Zhou Fu who was like he had run out of sense to face him. The fangs in his mouth grinned to find that his enemy would be utterly defeated. Just when Zhou Fu was trying to gather energy, Haku's body had swirled around Zhou Fu to make Zhou Fu's wiggle room even narrower. Haku's eyes on his scales were left completely closed, perhaps Haku wanted to squeeze Zhou Fu's body with a jagged coil.

I'm not done yet! Bajing*n!

Zhou Fu poured his profound energy all over his body, he also let out a hot aura that if released on land would make the enemy as if breathing in hot smoke. As the hot aura flowed from Zhou Fu's body, the water around Zhou Fu's body began to show an increase in temperature.

Zhou Fu increased the hot aura three times that of before to see if Haku reacted. Sure enough, Haku gave a reaction, but only a little wiggle was meaningless.

Oh... So it looks!!!

Zhou Fu flashed a triumphant smile when he saw something on the fins of Haku's legs. Something was only seen by Zhou Fu's eyes when Haku wriggled because he felt the heat of the water flowing with aura.

Grandfather Li Xian was wrong about the Haku verse! It definitely has nothing to do!!!

Zhou Fu nodded his head slightly upwards to face Haku. Zhou Fu's right hand swiftly pulled out one of Haku's whiskers in the lower left part of the nose. Apparently, plucking a large feather on Haku's body is also not as easy as he thought. Haku Wailed while tossing Zhou Fu's body through his head.

Zhou Fu tried to keep holding onto Haku's whiskers, this time with two hands. As strong as he pulled the murmur even though his body was bobbing. Shortly after Zhou Fu managed to balance his body, he stuck his foot right into Haku's nose while pulling Haku's whisker tightly. A few seconds later, the whistle was taken from its place.

Haku roared with a loud enough roar when one of his blades was plucked out. His body tiptoed in shock and pain. The scales of his eyes twinkling showed his uneasy feelings. As a result of the sudden roar and pounding of Haku's body, Zhou Fu was blown far enough away. Water surging from under the sea penetrates to the surface of the sea. This is equivalent to a devastating earthquake if it occurs on land.

Haku does have the two longest whiskers among the other whiskers. The long murmur was located at the bottom of Haku's nose on the right and left. If the right one is revoked, Haku will die. If the one that was revoked was a left one, Haku would be tame.

Sure enough, after Haku's whistle was uprooted, Haku showed a different look in his eyes. Haku showed an attitude as if he was a pet that his master wanted to pamper. Haku, who used to have a fierce eye spot, has now turned into an adorable beautiful eye highlight. His body was curling softly and his head was swaying like it was begging to be caressed by someone.

 Zhou Fu, who had crashed into the rubble, seemed to start smiling triumphantly. Shen Shen, who was hiding from behind a large rock, was seen swimming as fast as possible to get closer to Zhou Fu.

How could that be???

Shen Shen Shen's forehead wrinkled asking for the oddity that had happened to Haku, as well as how could Zhou Fu know about Haku's weakness.

Zhou Fu rose from the rubble while scratching his wet hair. He also shook his head in confusion as he raised his two hands together.

I'm not sure what I saw either, but I'll tell you. Most importantly, Haku was no longer a problem!

Zhou Fu explained with all his might, hoping that Shen Shen would no longer question him about the solved mystery of Haku. Because it was so brief, and Zhou Fu was still thinking deeply about what he had just seen in Haku's leg fins. How could it be at Haku's feet. At least, something at Haku's feet would Zhou Fu tell Li Xian's grandfather completely.

Think of it as Haku... But its scales are eye-shaped, its head is a fusion of crocodiles and dragons, its legs are claw-shaped, finned, and it lives in the sea.
