Just as the two ships began to exchange cannon fire, Wu Liangchen stepped onto a wooden plank and shot toward the opposing vessel at incredible speed.
"Good heavens, what is that?"
A crewman who spotted the figure darting across the sea's surface couldn't help but cry out in alarm.
Fukuhara Ryoma saw it too, of course, and his expression immediately changed.
He had only ever seen such abilities from the high masters of the Vajra Institute.
He realized at once that a top-tier Martial Artist was approaching him, and that this person was likely the reason for what had happened to the ship from Tamura Village.
Now, this man was crossing the sea to come here. His objective was self-evident—he was clearly coming for him.
At this thought, Fukuhara Ryoma grew tense and immediately gave orders to his men.
"Seal every corridor! If you see an unfamiliar face, open fire on sight!"
"Yes, sir!"
