Chapter 218 - 109: Alliance between sea and land (Part 2)

Chapter 218: Chapter 109: Alliance between sea and land (Part 2)

Alex got straight to the point, his voice completely devoid of emotion, as if he were discussing a trivial matter.

Upon hearing this, Poseidon instantly lost control of his facial expression and cried out in alarm.

"What? You want to form an alliance with me? Are you crazy?"

In his memories, Saints and Mariners had been sworn enemies since ancient times. An alliance was simply a fantasy.

Alex chuckled, a hint of confidence in his eyes.

"Why? Does the Sea God doubt my sincerity, or do you not recognize my capability?"

Poseidon’s face contorted slightly as he rapidly weighed the options in his mind.

The five Bronze Saints were already able to match the seven Sea Generals evenly.

Alex, moreover, rivaled a god with a mortal body. He had heard that there were other powerful Gold Saints in the Sanctuary, such as Shaka and Saga.

If another powerhouse with strength equal to Alex were to appear, even if his divine power fully recovered, he might not necessarily gain the upper hand.

More importantly, the threat of Hades was imminent. If they did not join forces, the oceans would sooner or later be encroached upon by the Underworld and completely reduced to a realm of death.

The circumstances were pressing. In the ancient great war, his divine soul had suffered extremely severe injuries; it would take at least another two hundred years for him to fully awaken.

After a long while, Poseidon darkened his face and spoke, his voice as low as a deep-sea undercurrent.

"Very well. I hope you will not go back on your word."

"I won’t." Alex raised an eyebrow and smiled faintly. "As long as I am in the Sanctuary, the Sea God can rest assured!"

"Hmph. I hope so."

The two dispelled their golden shields. Alex turned to face the crowd, and his clear, powerful words echoed throughout the city of Atlantis.

"I have reached an agreement with Lord Sea God. From this moment on, the Saints and the Mariners have formed an alliance to jointly deal with the revival of Hades, the King of the Underworld!"

These words were like a sudden clap of thunder, instantly shattering the oppressive calm of the seabed battlefield!

Seiya, who was half-kneeling and supporting the unconscious Saori Kido, abruptly snapped his head up, his pupils dilating in extreme astonishment.

He subconsciously wanted to say something, opening his mouth slightly, yet he couldn’t utter a single sound. He froze in place as if he had been petrified.

The expressions on the faces of Hyoga, Shiryu, Shun, Ikki, and the others instantly froze.

Hyoga’s deep blue eyes were filled with disbelief; the shock almost entirely washed away his exhaustion.

Beneath Shiryu’s tightly knit brows, his resolute face was also covered in suspicion and shock, as if he were doubting whether he was trapped in an illusion.

Shura, Aphrodite, and the newly awakened Camus also couldn’t hide their astonishment at this moment. The composure on their faces instantly crumbled, replaced by deep confusion and bewilderment.

Camus even felt as if he were living in a dream... The Saints and the Mariners forming an alliance?

’Am I crazy, or has the world gone mad?!’

The seven Sea Generals, who had just been fighting desperately against the Saints to protect the Sea God and the Mammoth Pillars of the Seven Oceans, had expressions that could only be described as horrified.

Their Emperor, the great Sea God Poseidon, was actually allying with their sworn enemies, the Saints?

This news completely overturned everyone’s cognitive system.

Siren Sorrento involuntarily loosened his grip, and his flute clattered onto the cold floor.

Kanon gasped in alarm, his body subconsciously taking a half-step back in shock.

Isaac also had his eyes wide open and his mouth slightly ajar, his face written with extreme incomprehension, bewilderment, and the impact of his worldview collapsing.

The battlefield, which had been completely reduced to ruins centered around the Main Pillar, seemed to have been put under a spell at this moment, plunging into a complete, suffocating dead silence.

The Cosmos that had been burning just moments ago instantly stagnated, and even the air seemed to freeze.

Hostility, vigilance, anger... all of these surging emotions were shattered to pieces under the word "alliance," replaced by an overwhelming, all-encompassing shock.

Every single face, whether Saint or Mariner, lost its proper expression management, leaving only dumbfounded astonishment.

Everyone’s gazes coincidentally focused on Alex and Poseidon, who had just removed their shield and were standing side by side, seeking an explanation or confirmation for this unbelievable scene.
