While he was dealing with these snakes, he was keeping a close eye on Nuguro, who seemed to have no intention of leaving the altar.
Well, the reason was quite obvious already.
"I have to work together with the members of the Devouring Whale Tribe to get near the altar and get my hands on those gemstones first. Dealing with his Hydra can wait," he mumbled as he squinted his eyes.
