Tens of thousands of people from Atalan City gathered at the Suspended Coast, watching as the small boat laden with offerings sailed into the deep sea.
Under normal circumstances, the evil dragon would devour the eighteen maidens and then carry the treasures back to its dwelling island to continue its slumber.
However, unbeknownst to everyone, two groups were plotting against the evil dragon at that moment.
Apart from the Dawn Group, several miles away from the city within the forest, hundreds of Dragon Knights from the Silver Dragon Kingdom had long been waiting.
Among the squad, there was also an old man holding a bamboo pole.
Listenging to the news that the huge dragon had set out to sea, the Knight Commander turned to the old man and said, "Mr. Bartolo, His Majesty the King insists on obtaining the Dragon Breath Fruit on the island. When the battle begins, we'll rely on you to slay that lightning blue dragon."
