Chapter 233: Chapter 184: Coronation of the New King: Orca Knight_2

Orcas use strategies to create waves that wash seals and other prey off ice floes, demonstrating their flexible use of the environment.

Orcas display complex emotions and social relationships, including enduring family bonds, behaviors indicative of grief (such as when losing a relative), and playfulness, all manifestations of high-order emotional cognition.

In sum,

Chen Yun, who didn’t want to harm these unhostile and exceptionally intelligent creatures, expressed his non-threat by slowly backing away.

Seeing how properly Chen Yun backed off,

the cautious mood emanating from the orca pod noticeably weakened.

These intelligent creatures also slowly backed away, widening the distance from Chen Yun, clearly not intending to have a conflict with him.

However, in this standoff,

an ungainly youngster with a brain so simple it could only think of eating suddenly burst onto the scene.

It was a Great White Shark.

Perhaps its brain had gone blank, or it hadn’t smelled the presence of the orcas, to dare to come here.

Its appearance

made both the person and the thirteen orcas in the standoff unavoidably look over.

Especially Chen Yun, who now had a smile on his face.

What perfect timing, sweetheart!

The arrival of the Great White Shark gave him a very bold idea, unthinkable for the ordinary person.

Almost without hesitation, he accelerated towards the Great White Shark and swam over.

This caused the orca pod to freeze in disbelief.

And the Great White Shark, about to leave upon spotting the orcas, stopped immediately once it saw Chen Yun, the Two-legged Beast, approaching it head-on.

It opened its mouth without hesitation, eyes flashing with excitement and ferocity, ready to bite.

But what it didn’t know was

at this moment, who was the real prey.

The shark’s teeth couldn’t penetrate as they latched onto Chen Yun’s arm; they couldn’t make any progress.

Whereas Chen Yun, who had skillfully fixed his hands inside the shark’s mouth, revealed a smile.

Giving you a chance to bite, and you actually take it?

The next moment,

after such a long time spent swimming and developing his strength, which had reached eighteen tons, Chen Yun

pulled with both hands powerfully.

Even more effortlessly than before, he tore.

Instantly,

the Great White Shark was divided in two by Chen Yun, as smoothly as if there were no resistance.

This clean and quick kill left the nearby intelligent orca pod gaping in shock.

Before they could react,

Chen Yun was already holding half of the Great White Shark as he swam up to the orcas.

Under their wary gaze,

Chen Yun tossed the piece of shark he was holding their way.

The scent of blood pervaded the water, with numerous bits of flesh falling throughout the process.

By the time the shark’s remains reached the orcas,

the pod realized one thing: was this Two-legged Beast... giving a gift?

It’s not that the clever orcas were slow to understand.

It was just that Chen Yun’s method of gift-giving was so violent, so bloody that it momentarily stumped the orcas, accustomed as they were to brutally killing their food.

They sniffed tentatively.

Then they took turns tasting.

For them, with diverse diets and large appetites, a giant squid clearly wouldn’t suffice—a Great White Shark, however, would make a perfect meal.

Chen Yun, meanwhile, quietly watched,

as he tore off a piece of Sharkskin with his sharp nails, using the shark’s own bones to craft a makeshift pair of sharkskin underwear and a sharkskin mask.

His bold idea from before was actually to try riding on an orca’s back. The novel sensation was intriguing, just to think about it.

But considering he was now naked, it wouldn’t be polite to strut about on their smooth backs, so Chen Yun set about making clothes from Sharkskin.

Once he had donned the underwear and mask, no longer streaking,

the orcas, as he had anticipated, were no longer as guarded towards him.

Food as a gift was indeed an excellent approach.

The intelligent pod of orcas was not so wary of him anymore.

Two smaller orca calves were even bold enough to sniff at the half of the Great White Shark in Chen Yun’s hand.

Seeing this, Chen Yun threw the skinned half of the Great White Shark to them, letting the two little orcas excitedly move forward to share the feast.

As he watched the whole orca pod express feelings of kinship and friendliness at this moment, Chen Yun understood that he had achieved the first step toward his goal.

He smiled and stepped forward, trying to touch the largest female that led the orca pod.

As for his approach,

the caution in the Orca Leader’s emotions quickly swelled but did not prompt any action.

This cautious feeling peaked when Chen Yun touched the Orca Leader and then quickly subsided.

For Chen Yun did nothing.

He really was just touching the Orca Leader’s skin.

Firstly, it was slippery— the surface of the Orca Leader’s skin was incredibly smooth because it was covered with a protective layer of mucus. This mucus layer, secreted by specialized mucus glands, helped reduce underwater drag and keep the skin healthy. Moreover, beneath the skin was a thick layer of blubber, providing a certain degree of elasticity and a sense of thickness when touched.

In conclusion, the touch that Chen Yun felt at the moment was slippery yet firm.

Under his gentle caresses, the Orca Leader’s mood quickly became calm.

However, considering his intention to mount,

Chen Yun gradually increased the extent of his strokes and, in this process, occasionally used spiritual power to control bits of shark meat, coupling the touch with feeding the Orca Leader.

Under Chen Yun’s caresses and simultaneous feeding,

the Orca Leader’s emotions gradually became calm and affectionate.

And to ensure the feasibility of riding,

Chen Yun took an extra measure by amplifying the Orca Leader’s emerging emotions of closeness with Emotion Stimulation.

This could indeed be seen as altering the will of a sentient creature, although it was more like indirectly accelerating the emergence of a will that was supposed to arise.

After such manipulation for a while,

Chen Yun directly mounted and clamped his legs to secure himself on the Orca Leader’s back.

The Orca Leader made no objection and allowed Chen Yun to mount obediently.

The surrounding orcas, however, became restless.

The surrounding water rippled subtly.

But Chen Yun released a faint Killing Intent at will, quieting down the orcas around him.

While he could patiently stroke the orca he wished to use as a mount, there was no need to be so gentle with these underlings.

Animals were often more adept at sensing the terror of Chen Yun’s Killing Intent.

And the highly intelligent orcas understood that they must express submission decisively from the heart once they perceived goodwill.

Not a hint of resistance.

At this moment, the new king was crowned!

The entire orca pod was under control.

Chen Yun felt a thrilling sensation of exhilaration.

Mounted on the Orca Leader, observing the twelve orcas bowing in allegiance around him, he felt as though he had conquered this part of the ocean.

This feeling was something no one else in the world had ever experienced.

Chen Yun seemed to be in a flowing blue kingdom, surrounded by the vast ocean, with sunlight piercing through the water, casting speckled lights.

Sitting on the wise and majestic Orca Leader, he felt the strength and rhythm of its mighty strokes.

It was a unique experience of unity with the forces of nature, a deep trust and acceptance.

The 12 "underling" orcas around him each displayed different personalities and stances but all circled Chen Yun and the Orca Leader below him, forming a harmonious yet solemn formation.

It was as if they were performing an ancient ritual, expressing respect and submission. The air was filled with the salty scent of the sea and perhaps also a breath of freedom.

At this moment, time seemed to stand still.

Only the indescribable tacit understanding and connection between himself and the great ocean beasts remained.

When mounted atop the Orca Leader, surrounded by loyal orca underlings, the entire ocean world seemed to subtly change in that instant.

The immensity of the ocean, at that moment, seemed to shrink into a domain one could sense and explore, no longer an unattainable unknown.

With every powerful swish of the Orca Leader’s tail, the waves seemed to part more respectfully, as if nature itself was offering its deepest respect to Chen Yun, the king of the ocean.

At a certain moment, Chen Yun felt as though he truly stood at the pinnacle of the ocean, possessing a perspective that overlooked this azure world, with all its grandeur and mystery submitting to this incredible connection.

"Pepper shrimp... ah, no."

"Orca, let’s go!"

As the newly crowned king, Chen Yun excitedly gestured to the south, the direction he intended to go.
