Far away from the Oshi Ahi submarine in the vast sea lands, a massive rift appears in the distance, suggesting its depth reaches 2,000 kilometers. The first meter of it had some total darkness, but after crossing every meter, lighting becomes clear in its depth as its bottom is not dark; there is intense lighting emitted from several pillars carrying spheres above them that grant the place illumination. On one side of the deep rift, specifically the right, a ship of enormous magnitude appears reaching a length of 400 meters. It seems from its facade that it is made of wood, and starting from the bottom, every time a meter rises, a wide line appears as if the ship is divided into layers totaling 4 floors. The bottom floor has a large single square window half a meter long blocked by shining glass. The second floor has a window from the beginning of the ship and another from its end; from inside its glass, active and intensive movements of creatures taking the form of humans appear, emitting sounds of knives and pans clashing and the movement of arranging plates. The third floor, and this floor specifically, has vertical lines, each one separated from the other by a distance, and each distance has the width of a small house, and all these intervals have their own windows carrying in front of them something like a long box hanging from the window and below it, and they are sandy-colored. As for the fourth and last floor, it does not have an ordinary roof, rather it is entirely made of transparent glass covering the whole area of the ship. Inside this floor, furnished with long and wide dark blue mattresses, are tables close to the walls covered with white sheets, some of them carrying women's clothing of the Victorian style, others carrying men's clothing of the same style, and others carrying golden bracelets, rings, and also pearl necklaces. These jewels were not placed on the table randomly but were placed in luxury boxes with all coordination and order, and thus every table has a type of merchandise. The walls inside this ship were not wooden like its exterior, but rather encrusted with shiny white marble. In this place, which is the fourth floor resembling a reception hall, in its front part, there is a platform reached by a long staircase. In the middle of the platform itself stands a small display desk with no chair around it, and behind the desk, there is a door, and the door also has the same blueness. Suddenly, its handle started moving, and from the inside, it becomes clear that the door is opened by a prickly hand, and it turns out to be a pufferfish, the same one that appeared in the destruction of the city along with the shark. The pufferfish exited from the door, followed by the same shark that caused the destruction of a part of the city, wearing on his right eye a monocle with a golden connecting chain, having a shiny official suit suggesting the appearance of celebrations, and his smile with pointed and sharp teeth tops his face. [Pufferfish]: Please, Mr. Ehawan. Notice the reception hall is arranged and clean in the manner you requested. The shark Ehawan was not the only shark, as on each of his sides was another shark. On his left was a shark also having the form of a human; it seems he is of the tiger shark type, wearing a Victorian official suit indicating he is a male shark. On the right of Ehawan was a shark of the female gender, wearing a pink Victorian dress, and she is also of the tiger shark type. Ehawan watches the reception hall with scrutiny and focus. [Ehawan]: Good, good that you finished quickly, for the guests after an hour or very soon are coming, or rather our customers will come at any moment. [Ehawan]: So, the countdown for the commercial campaign starts now. From behind them, from inside the room they exited from, the other pufferfish appeared to stand beside the first pufferfish. Their clothes were not of one color, as the first pufferfish was wearing a white jacket, while the other who appeared now has a yellow jacket. [The Yellow Pufferfish]: Hah, Mr. Ehawan, do not be hasty in the counting, for the customers have not come yet. [Ehawan]: This is not my problem; they could have come at an earlier time. This countdown from now until the end of the week, when it expires, they will be forced to buy the "Full Evolution" potions at their high price. In both cases, whether they got them at a cheaper price or higher, I will be the biggest beneficiary from that. The female shark looked at him laughing. [The Female Shark]: Hehe, oh father, you are bad and deceptive, very deceptive. My brother and I are lucky because we are not among your customers, otherwise, we would have suffered with them from your deception, father. Also, surely you are planning to do something else, and that is without a doubt from you, which is the thing that makes you benefit a double benefit, isn't that so? Ehawan laughed a light laugh, then he and the rest started descending from the platform via the stairs, advancing forward until Ehawan gave his look toward the two pufferfish, specifically the one with the yellow jacket. [Ehawan]: Kanodo, go to open the ship's rear gate in preparation for the guests' entry, and do not forget to press the button to lower the moving staircase so they can climb. Of course, we will not tire them by swimming upward; that is inappropriate. Kanodo set off to the end of the ship to pull its handles, opening it. The entrance-exit of the ship was wide enough for crowds to enter. Above the gate was a pillar connecting the two sides of the gate, wrapped with a white cloth, and from it hangs a rope moved by the movement of water. Then Kanodo went to one of the sides, pressing a prominent button, so a staircase divided from both sides appears, and they attach and form united stairs sufficient for everyone to climb. Then Ehawan directed his look toward the other pufferfish with the white jacket. [Ehawan]: And now you, Zakono, go to open that white cloth; it is a banner in which the event that will start today and here is written. Zakono set off immediately upon receiving the order, reaching the rope hanging from the cloth. He pulled it to lower the cloth, opening itself, as it turns out that it is indeed a banner written in black letters with silver edges, which is (The General Commercial Campaign). This banner, moved by the water, flutters as if it were a flag restricted from its full freedom, watched by both Ehawan and his two sons. [The Male Shark]: Father, how excited I am for their arrival and to fight one of them. The smile vanished from Ehawan's face, looking at him. [Ehawan]: What? You... fight... one of them. His daughter grabbed his hand, which made him turn to her, and features of concern started appearing on him. [The Female Shark]: Yes, father, I am also like him, waiting for when we start the fun of crushing the head of one of them or more. Ehawan's eyes widened more, and he continued his progress with them forward. [Ehawan] to himself: A problem concerning these two. I will get tired with them until I am able to convince them to abandon this idea. Perhaps I shouldn't have brought them. Far from the ship, and from its front angle, 10 submarines appeared that do not seem to belong to an ordinary class creature, as each one of them sparkles with a golden brilliance, and even five of them are encrusted with some blue crystals over their surface, advancing rapidly toward the ship, emitting coarse movement sounds until they stopped near the ship at a distance of 4 meters away from it. The submarine doors opened, and from each one a group of sea creatures exited. One of them, two fish appeared from it who seem to be adults, and with them a small fish who seems to still be in the childhood stage, and all three of them are of the clownfish type. And other submarines, other sea creatures also exit from them, among them snails and a lobster who appeared alone from one of the vehicles wearing a brown Victorian dress. All these have the form of humans, distinguishing them from any other ordinary animal. The small fish, who is of the clownfish type, looked at the two adult fish who seem to be a mother and father, indicating they are a family. [The Small Fish]: Father, mother, why did we come here? And will we enter this huge ship? The father looked at her with a smile on his face, lowering his head to her. [The Father Fish]: The eggs will hatch soon, and those who are your brothers also, like you, will be hybridized. To do that, what will give them the new traits must be bought from potions that will be sold inside this ship, my daughter. The father and mother were carrying large bags in their hands; it appears from the way they are carried that they have weights. Both parents were not of slim bodies indicating weakness; rather, each of them had muscles protruding from their arms, which are like balls of solid rock. Back to the Oshi Ahi submarine, and at its end, a circular table around which are five chairs, sitting in them each of them except for Oshnirai and Chyohana. On the table itself are plates with food crumbs and near them chopsticks. The quintet are sitting side by side around the table, which with its chairs has a lemon yellow color exactly like the color of the submarine, until Yonsharin stood from her sitting. [Yonsharin]: Has each one of you become fully ready to execute the mission. Gwankai, Yoriki, and Eyanka all nodded their heads to her in the affirmative. [Yonsharin]: Very excellent..... [Yonsharin] shouting: Then disperse to your seats before I turn the table over on you. Features of terror appeared on them except for Eno-Eyosho; their skin crawled as a result of the shout, and then they all without exception started moving away from the table chairs returning to their seats. [Gwankai]: Aaah, sister, I hate that day when your turn in preparing food comes because of what you do in the end. Yonsharin started folding the table, including the chairs, after she first moved the plates that were on it, arranging the place. [Yonsharin]: Oh, look at the robes and the boxes that the president talked about and we didn't notice them. Eyanka looked at her, staring at each of the robes and the boxes. [Eyanka]: Bring one of those boxes and a cup of milk so we can know the mechanism of its work. [Yonsharin]: Okay, after I finish. Yonsharin was able to return the end of the submarine empty of anything as it was, and immediately she opened the refrigerator on the left side, bringing out a milk carton. In a moment, she appears sitting in the seat near Eyanka, placing on the table that separates the seats the brown box and near it a cup of milk, some of which flies with the water as if it were white threads moving. On the front side of the box, there are two buttons, one red and the other green; below them are several other buttons numbered from 1 to 0. Then Eyanka opened the lid of the box to show its inside, as the latter is characterized by a large, countless number of holes. The color of the inside of the box is not like its outside; its inside is a bloody reddish. [Eyanka]: The next step is placing the milk cup inside it. She carried the milk cup and placed it inside the box, then she closed it again. [Eyanka]: This red button is surely for operation; anyway, if using this bomb wasn't easy, the president would have explained to us how to use it. Finally, she pressed the red button while Yonsharin and the rest followed her step by step. Upon pressing it, a faint explosion echoed inside the box, and from its upper edges, some smoke exited, which was white in color and moved by the action of the water in the surroundings. [Yonsharin]: Look, this smoke carried a strong milk smell with it; it seems it leaves traces of smell. [Yoriki]: Open the lid of the box again, Eyan, and notice inside it what happened. Eyanka opened its lid to show the cup inside, and it was indeed empty; the milk was no longer present. Yonsharin looked with her into its inside. [Yonsharin]: The milk has disappeared. So, this is a bomb to explode liquids and convert them into smoke or vapor that disappears in seconds. An amazing bomb and simple to use as well. Eyanka extracted the cup, and it was clean and shining, with no remains of what was in it. [Yoriki]: But what are those small, numbered buttons under the two large buttons? [Eyanka]: Perhaps they are for measurement, meaning for the amount of liquid that must be disposed of; just a guess, nothing more. With a smile, Gwankai looks at them, carrying his phone in his hand. [Gwankai]: Aaah, if the stingray Tsyanga knew that some of her bombs were stolen, she would be extremely angry. The great thing is that no matter how much she searches, she won't know who the perpetrator is and she might suspect her workers. Yoriki looked at him with a light smile carrying his tension. [Yoriki]: Yes. So, that woman we met at the agency, what is the reason that made her come there? I wasn't able to hear what you were talking about. Gwankai looked at him with features of wonder. [Gwankai]: You mean Tsyohanka. [Yoriki]: Yes, her... it seems you know her well. So, what is the reason for her coming to the agency? And I had heard from you words indicating your wonder at something. [Gwankai]: Because she has a son, no doubt he is a Kaijin like us, and to reduce the work time for him because he is a high school student, she came to talk to Mr. President. Hah, he won't listen to her at all. Yoriki's eyes widened to the maximum extent, with signs of extreme astonishment drawn on his face. [Yoriki] shouting: What? She has a son? What, what? [Gwankai]: From what are you wondering? Do you know her? Also, this son of hers is adopted, nothing more. You can cancel your astonishment. Yoriki's astonishment started disappearing, but the features of wonder in Gwankai started moving to him. [Gwankai]: Tell me, Yoriki, it seems you know her very, very well. Are you linked to her by some relationship? Yoriki remained silent for a long time without letting out any word; instead, he was satisfied only with staring at Gwankai. [Yoriki]: aaa, from where do you know her? When and exactly did you get to know her? Gwankai showed his laugh, pointing at Yonsharin. [Gwankai]: Aha, just as you didn't answer me, I won't answer you; resort to my sister Yonsharin if you want an answer. Yoriki turned his body toward Yonsharin, and with her eyes, she looked at him, pointing with her thumb behind her toward the sitting of Chyohana and Oshnirai. [Yonsharin]: Do not come to me; go to them, they will surely answer you. He looked at her with contempt, then rose to take steps toward them until reaching them, which made them give their attention to him. [Yoriki]: Chyoha and Oshi, tell me when did you get to know that woman Tsyohanka? [Chyohana]: Umm, two years ago in the New Year's celebration, of course outside, and you weren't present, only Yonsharin and her brother were with us. [Yoriki]: aaa, what? Oshnirai returned her attention to her front, continuing the driving. [Oshnirai]: Well, I will tell you in tedious detail if the matter interests you. Yoriki nodded his head in the affirmative. [Oshnirai]: So, two years ago from now... And Oshnirai started as if she were recalling the past from two years ago, as indeed she remembers events that happened in these two years. She entered into the depths of her mind, and at that time the sea bottom city appeared in a celebratory atmosphere, lights decorating the streets, crowds of people decorated themselves in traditional dress, each of them showing their joy and happiness. Colored fireworks fly and decorate above them as if they were small burning lights until from the crowds Oshnirai, Chyohana, Yonsharin, and Gwankai appear together standing, and they are also wearing traditional costumes, watching above them, and like the people, happiness shows from their faces. Tsyohanka approached them, watching upward with them, and this is what made them turn to her, and the latter did not show any features of happiness; instead, a cold feature took its place as if she were indifferent to what was around her.
