Leo quickly arrived at the rear of the boat without anyone following behind him. He then called out for his Water Elemental to come and also took out the map and compass from the storage ring.

Afterwards, he started estimating just how far away they were to finally reach the Blue Fin Kingdom.

"Considering the time frame between when teacher Homer said that we already arrived in the dark green zone till this present time, then our location should be around here..." Leo pointed at a specific location on the map, specifically 30 kilometers distance from the Blue Fin Kingdom, "Assuming that I'm correct, then I need to repeat my plan for exactly 300 times, which is so stupid if I really make myself do that. But what if I make my Water Elemental do a diagonal dive instead of a straight dive and in front of the boat instead of the back?"

Making his Water Elemental do a diagonal dive simply means that the Magical Beast Sharks would arrive 100 meters deep underwater when the Water Elemental finally vanished. And because of that, if the Magical Beast Sharks decided to chase after the floating tree once again, they needed to swim diagonally instead of vertically since while the Magical Beast Sharks are chasing behind from 100 meters deep the boat on the other hand would continue traveling forward, hence giving the boat two times the distance that he had first calculated, specifically 200 meters, which would reduce the 300 repeats to 150 repeats only.

And since it was to the front of the boat, it basically meant their path forward would by then become clear, since the Water Elemental would keep on attracting every Magical Beast Sharks in their path. Unlike on the other hand, if he chooses the rear of the boat, which means he would still worry about the Magical Beast Sharks in front of the boat.

Moreover, the 150 repeats can also be decreased furthermore if he can make the Magical Beast Sharks circle around for a few bit of laps before suddenly unsummoning the Water Elemental, hence causing them to be distracted for a few seconds and be confused for a bit as soon as the Water Elemental vanished.

If he can indeed achieve that distraction and confusion, then the worst result he assumes would be he can reduce 25 repeats, bringing down the 150 to 125. If he can successfully do that multiple times, which the best result he assumes is 50, then he might be able to bring down 150 to 100.

Furthermore, what if he makes his Water Elemental shoot an arrow or javelin with the 1 Star Magical Beast meat attached underwater to increase the 100 meters max distance, even if it would only increase 10 meters or 15 meters it would still be really worth it.

"Are there more ways to decrease it further..." Leo asked as he fell into deep thought. 125 to 100 times is obviously still a lot for him, and he also feels deep in his mind that there are a lot more ways to further decrease this.

"Leo?" Levi suddenly interrupted.

"Not now, Levi!" Leo quickly stopped Levi from distracting him. At this moment, he needed to really focus his mind, so that he can think of another way.

"But I have an idea that might be able to help with your plan..."

Hearing Levi's words, Leo's interest was immediately piqued.

What he really needed right now was exactly such kind of suggestion!

"Make the Magical Beast Sharks fight with each other," Levi said.

"That..." Leo's eyes immediately lit up, "Hahaha, you're a genius, Levi!"

Magical Beast Sharks would naturally not chase after a Water Elemental carrying a 1 Star Magical Beast meat peacefully. They are bounded to have conflicts from time to time.

Although he quickly assumes that those conflicts would definitely just be those small kinds of conflict, such as Magical Beast Sharks trying to bite each other or slamming with each other. But what if he adds more oil into this fire?

Leo turned to look at Levi as he asked curiously, "How can we do that, though?"

"Hmmm..." Levi thought for a bit before he was finally able to thought of an idea, "Let's cut a few pieces from the 1 Star Magical Beast meat from time to time!"

"That's indeed feasible!" Leo quickly agreed.

By cutting a few pieces of the 1 Star Magical Beast meat that the Water Elemental is carrying from time to time and giving them to the Magical Beast Sharks chasing after it, the Magical Beast Sharks would definitely race to who will have it first, and conflict would obviously arise from such kind of situation.

Just like, for example, what if a group of robbers makes it rain money using the money they had robbed from the bank while being chased after by the guards and soldiers? People all around the place would obviously come and chase after those raining money, right? Hence, causing them to hinder the guards and soldiers that chases after the robbers. And because of that, those guards and soldiers would start assaulting those who blocked them because any second wasted means the robbers can increase their distance away, which by doing so would obviously cause a conflict to arise.

Putting it to his case, the Water Elemental was the robber carrying the money, which is the 1 Star Magical Beast meat. The Water Elemental suddenly started chopping pieces of the money to satisfy the people, but these so-called people are not only the people but at the same time also the guards and soldiers chasing after the robber. Moreover, they're not the peace-loving people too, but instead savage Magical Beast Sharks. So, it is obviously impossible to apply the first come first serve rule to these groups of Magical Beast Sharks that are only full of greed and desire to taste the 1 Star Magical Beast meat in their minds. These Magical Beast Sharks would obviously start a fight as to who gets the meat first, which would of course further give more time for the boat to travel tens or even hundreds of distance more.

If he really can do that, then the 125 to 100 times would highly likely be reduced by around 50 to 75 times, hence bringing down the 125 to 100 to around 75 to 25 times.

Hopefully, he can reduce it to somewhere below the 50 times mark, since the 1 Star Magical Beast meat is not infinite. It would eventually run out and he would not have any choice anymore but to return to slow travel once again the moment that time comes.

Although his only goal right now was just simply how not to waste time in their journey to the Blue Fin Kingdom, but hoping to decrease the time it would take to finally reach the Blue Fin Kingdom is obviously not a wrong thing to do, right?

The more times he can repeat his plan, the sooner they will arrive at the Blue Fin Kingdom, hence they will finally be able to ask for reinforcement to Floating Mountain and save everyone.

"Then let's start with this plan!" Leo said as he quickly took out a big enough size of a piece of the Twin Horn Shark's meat and a normal javelin from his storage ring before quickly giving it to his Water Elemental.

The moment Leo took out a piece of 1 Star Magical Beast meat, the Magical Beast Sharks were immediately able to smell the scent of blood, quickly attracting them towards the Water Elemental's direction.

"Go!" Leo quickly ordered the Water Elemental.

*Whaaash!

The Water Elemental quickly started diving diagonally towards the front direction of the boat.

On the other hand, Leo quickly started forming a new Water Elemental in his consciousness, to quickly summoned one the moment the first one was destroyed, and as soon as he finished forming the Water Elemental, he quickly dashed towards the boat's steering wheel to drive the boat forward.

"Leo, what the heck are you doing?" Axel was immediately in shock the moment he saw Leo running towards the boat's steering wheel.

"Sh*t, are you planning to kill us all?" Aiden swore as he quickly runs forward in hopes of stopping Leo.

"Wait, look down in front of the boat!" Ehtelyn quickly noticed something shocking. All the Magical Beast Sharks were actually now swimming underwater, seemingly trying to chase after something.

"Just watch out for any Magical Beast Sharks that try to attack us! And also, please trust me!" Leo said as he fully unfolded the headsail and mainsail in order to have a fast journey.

Right after, the wind quickly began pushing the boat forward.

"If you want to add more wind pressure, then I suggest that you cast some kind of Wind-related Magic spell!" Leo suggested.

"Since you want us to do that, then we will exactly do that!" Axel said as he closed his eyes and began casting a Wind Pressure spell to push the sail forward.

"No problem!" Aiden.

"Okay!" Ehtelyn.

"If only we can increase this speed!" Leo can't help but shook his head. Because they can no longer use the wooden paddles due to teacher Homer��s absence, the speed of the boat was still consider slow.

"I have an idea!" Aiden quickly thought of something, "Axel and Ehtelyn, give me your storage ring!"

"Why?" Axel and Ehtelyn curiously asked in unison.

"I will store those supplies on the 1st floor to decrease the weight of the boat!" Aiden finally revealed his idea.

"Here!" Axel threw his storage ring to Aiden without any hesitation after hearing his idea.

"Just don't touch any of my important stuff!" Ehtelyn also followed after. Though she didn't forget to remind Aiden not to do something stupid, which what she meant is obviously not to look at her undergarments stored inside the storage ring.

"Thank you!" Aiden exclaimed as he quickly runs downstairs.

After a while, the speed of the boat finally increased.

"What to do next, Leo?" Axel, Aiden, and Ehtelyn turned to look at Leo.

"Trust me!" Leo replied.

Deep in Leo's mind, he was receiving countless reports from his Water Elemental.

Every time a report comes, he would immediately think of an idea of how to take advantage of the situation in order to give them more time.

Although he wasn't the Water Elemental, his forehead can't help being drenched in sweat due to nervousness.

"Trust me...." Leo murmured again as he sent another order.
