Ryan froze when he heard Matthew's words.
It wasn't the shark leaders that made the others act this way?
Then who else could it be?
While confusion gripped Ryan's mind, Matthew stood up.
He slowly walked to the edge of the deck, his eyes locked on the ocean.
But it wasn't the water he seemed to be looking at—his gaze pierced the sea's surface.
It was fixed directly on the massive beast lying on the seafloor, resting.
"A handful of shark leaders can't possibly control hundreds of them," Matthew murmured. "To get them all in line... you need something terrifying."
His quiet words only deepened the confusion etched across Ryan's face.
Suddenly, Matthew's eyes narrowed sharply.
The creature at the bottom of the sea—was waking up.
As the monstrous shark stirred from its slumber, the frenzied attacks on the human vessels above came to an abrupt halt.
One by one, the sharks turned away from their prey.
They dove swiftly toward the ocean floor.
Everyone aboard the ships watched in stunned silence.
Ryan, too, was dumbfounded. From Matthew's strange remarks to the sharks' bizarre behavior—it made no sense.
"No need to be confused," Matthew said softly, glancing at Ryan. "Their king has simply awakened."
"Their king?" Ryan echoed, bewildered.
He had traveled to Bloodfin Bay dozens of times—and had never heard anything about a shark king.
"That's right," Matthew replied. "Their territorial patterns were all set by that creature. It knows this is the route to Blackshore Island. If it holds this location, then food will keep coming to them, day after day."
A chill crept into Ryan's eyes as he realized the implications.
