Ocean Master

"Home at last!" Tosh exclaimed exaggeratedly.

After a journey that was filled with ups and downs despite them deliberately trying to avoid danger along the way, Sebastian and his 2 team members finally returned to the shark clan cave.

Though they didn't exclaim like their talkative partner, inwardly, Sebastian and Shanks felt the same way as Tosh did.

After getting their identity verified by the 2 shark guards at the entrance of the cave, confirming that they didn't come back with any dangerous substance, they finally gained entrance inside the cave.

As soon as Sebastian took his 2 team members into the main staying chamber of the cave, he noticed the unusual glances that the other sharks directed at him and his teammates immediately. 

Most of the gazes at them by the other sharks were mostly that of shock, and the majority of them were directed at him and Shanks.

Though he found it a little odd, it did not take long for him to ignore it, associating it with the fact of Shanks having grown in size.

Well, to him, that was really something worth being shocked about. Just after one hunting session, the little Shanks evolved, becoming an orange tier predator while growing to twice his original size.

As soon as he thought of this, he felt a little proud. Tosh told him about team promotion the other time. Well, this was his way of promoting the team.

"Come to the Ultimate Dissectors team as a white tier shark, you'll emerge at the orange tier. Come to the team as an orange tier shark, with time, you'll emerge as a purple tier shark".

This was something that was normal in every hunting team originally, but with Shanks' outrageous example, it immediately gained more meaning and served as good advertising material.

"Hey, do they do advertisement notices here?"

"Huh?" Tosh was stunned, with an expression of 'how the hell did you know that' on his face.

Sebastian felt like facepalming. "Answer my question".

"Yeah, there's advertisement notices but it requires shark points and…"

"Forget it". Sebastian waved his dorsal fin; he should have expected it.

With that conversation done, it did not take them much time before they arrived at the Mission/Reward Hall. 

In the hall was a place for sharks to place their mission hauls after hunting. As Nanga was just one shark, he couldn't attend to the needs of every shark so digitalization worked best at this point.

According to Tosh, a machine was under the hall that tabulated the mission hauls and awarded shark points. Apparently, this machine was a wreak that was savaged by the clan head from an Atlantian ship ruin.

Without hesitation, Sebastian placed the hundreds of Stinging Jellyfish that he brought with him into the machine.

Ding!

The loud sound made by the machine attracted attention immediately, drawing the eyes of other sharks as they widened the next moment on seeing the huge harvest of jellyfish.

Even Nanga who was originally having a nap woke up to the sound.

[Shark point value: 1390.]

Seeing this, the other onlooking sharks were surprised. Not because this was the highest sharp point value that a hunting team ever got from a single hunt, but because it was probably the highest for a newly created team on its first hunt.

Sebastian didn't pay attention to the onlooking sharks as he made his calculations on seeing the figures, then he arrived at his stat table.

-->1 white tier predator= 5 Shark points.

-->1 orange tier predator= 10 Shark points.

Perhaps, this value may fluctuate in correspondence to how big the said predator was but this was still the basic point value that Sebastian settled with. For now, he didn't know about purple tier predators.

After the points value was finalized, Sebastian did not waste time as he divided the points on the spot. He divided them according to the amount of effort put in by each of them in the previous hunting expedition.

The machine responded to his decision immediately.

[Ultimate Dissectors Hunting team tab.]

[Team Members:]

[Shanks: 340 Shark points.]

[Tosh: 450 Shark points.]

[Sebastian: 500 Shark points.]

Sebastian gave Tosh 450 points because of his impact and help in the previous encounters. Without him, perhaps they would have never survived the mommy jellyfish's thrashing so he deserved that.

"Ok, you guys can go do anything you want with your points, I have some things to attend to". Sebastian did not waste time as he shooed his teammates away before confidently swimming towards Nanga.

Due to the slight commotion caused by his submission, this shark who was in charge of the hall already had his attention drawn to Sebastian.

As Sebastian swam closer, an excited gleam flashed through his eyes which made Nanga for some reason shudder.

After thinking extensively about it, Sebastian decided to be direct with his ambitions. Beating around the bush and sugarcoating things was not his forte, he was a bro that loved being direct at every opportunity possible.

"Welcome…, Sebastian right?"

"Yes, hall master". Sebastian smiled.

This was the first time that Nanga heard such a term, but for some reason, it appealed to his ears immediately which made him smile back at the shark.

"What can I do for you?" The huge shark asked warmly.

"Can I like, speak with you about important stuff here?"

"Yes, you can".

"I want to create a department in the clan!"

"…"

"…"

"….."

Silence descended into the originally boisterous hall as every shark stopped his/her activity and turned to look at this shark in curiosity.

Even Tosh and Shanks who haven't left the hall completely paused mid-swim as they both turned to face their team leader in shock.

"Is there a problem?" Sebastian asked, suddenly feeling like the atmosphere was turning odd which was strange.

Nanga gave the shark a deep look before replying. "About that, I'm not the best person that you should meet. Elder Marble is responsible for that".

"Oh! Thanks then".

Sebastian waved a fin at the older shark before turning to swim away. He already knew where the shark elder's special chamber was, all he thought of now was how to secure a meeting with the elder.

As he wracked his brain, it did not take him long before he got to the entrance where he met Tosh and Shanks.

"You guys are still here?"

"Umm, we forgot something. So, we were trying to search if we could find it, but as we couldn't find it…". 

"Sorry, we forgot something". Shanks answered before scurrying away, leaving Tosh who was still blabbering away dumbfounded.

"Umm…, that…, that was…"

"Never mind". Sebastian left before Tosh could say more.

As soon as Sebastian came out of the hall, going back to the main staying chamber, he was shocked as an enormous shark rapidly swam across, almost hitting his face in the process while leaving the cave in commotion due to its speed.

[You have activated skill: Advanced Electroreceptors.]

His eyes could not keep up with the enormous shark, but his electroreceptors did. The shark who just swam past was the elder Marble of the clan.

"Where is he rushing to?"

Sebastian seemed to have asked too early, as 4 sharks rushed out consecutively the next moment.

Whoosh!

Tracing them with his electroreceptors, he was shocked. The clan head, Queen Heareth, and the other 2 elders were the sharks who just rushed out and they seemed to be in a hurry.

Sebastian was spooked, feeling like- what the heck could rile up these powerhouses so much? 

"Is the world coming to an end?"
