"Don't stay too long in the water Shoto."
'Just a little bit longer mother the water feels so good'
"No I won't allow it because your drowning so wake up!"
Shoto eyes shot open only to find himself underwater. He covered his mouth to prevent loss of oxygen.
[Notice: That is unnecessary sir I have covered your body with a thing layer of slime that is constantly extracting oxygen from the water.]
'Oh.' Shoto removed his hand from his mouth.
'How are you extracting oxygen from the water?'
[Answer: Using the slime's innate skill
'Okey I get it but judging by how dark it is I must be pretty deep how am I not crushed by the water pressure?'
[Answer: The Desert Guard's skill
'I guess the harvest was completed , well I can't keep sinking forever.'
Shoto began absorbing water through his skin using
Woooosh!
'Can't believe it worked I guess watching anime was helpful.' Shoto thought as he swam up the body of water.
Swap!
Something wrapped itself around Shoto's right ankle at the high speed he was moving at. It was a white tentacle with red spots and red sucker underneath.
Crack!
The tentacle snapped Shoto's ankle to stop the water propulsion.
Sizzle!
Shoto's ankle began to burn in in the tentacles grasp. Shoto released water from his hand swirling his arm to to create a sword.
Slash!
Shoto cut the tentacle then propelled himself higher before expanding his
'There you are.'
A giant octopus the likes of which had never been seen before.
'Damn if only this was a dream," Shoto hated the way it looked.
The octopus launched three of it's tentacles in an attempt to capture Shoto but were slashed apart by Shoto's water blade. The tentacles grew back while duplicating at the same time before launching another attack.
Shoto released all the water from his body in a rotational force around his body that slashed the tentacles that tried to capture him.
'I can't stay on defense for too long with that kind of regeneration maybe…'
Shoto absorbed and released water from his a right arm extending the water blade into a water whip.
He swung it.
[Kuzakabe Sword Technique -Fourth form- Painting Of Spring]
Like a painter free to do whatever he wanted to the canvas Shoto chopped up the tentacles that came from him.
Chachachacha!
The octopus was surprised not by it's tentacles being chopped of by the fact they were not regenerating.
'What?'
There was a black energy releasing radiating from the octopus's chopped tentacles. Shoto had only thought of adding poison and ki to see if it would regenerate but the black energy had jumped out before he could use a them.
'I'll figure things out later I've got to finish this first.'
[Kuzakabe Sword Technique -Seventh Form- Heartless Spring]
Slash! Slash! Slash! Slash!
The coral octopus was chopped up into pieces before being harvested by Shoto.
[Congratulations you have gained a new skills
'Not bad but I gotta go,' Shoto propelled himself upward.
He kept his
"!!"
Ahead of him Shoto sensed a light source that was emitting an electric current. Shoto came closer and saw a sliver ball charging itself, it looked like a creature rolled up in a defensive mode.
'Mmmm can I avoid it?'
If Shoto could avoid fights he would it was just everything in the dungeon was dead set on ending him.
The silver ball began unrevealing itself and revealed itself to be a silver octopus with silver balls orbiting it.
'Guide'
[Silver Bolt Octopus]
'It has more than eight tentacles but it's smaller then the fire coral octopus'
The silver bolt octopus commanded on the balls orbiting it to attack Shoto. Shoto was about to cut the ball in half with a ki blade but avoided on behest the
'Why did you tell to dodge?'
[That]
The ball flew and exploded upon making contact with a random fish.
'Sheesh.'
[Incoming attack]
Shoto evaded the three incoming orb and propelled himself to shake it's aim. The octopus fired smaller orbs that hurled through the water with greater speed.
'I need more speed' Shoto thought and upon instinct he began doing something unaccepted.
Instead of absorbing water and discharging it through parts of his body Shoto manipulated it around his body granting himself flawless movement within water.
Shoto vanished from the sight of the silver bolt octopus just as the silver bullets were about make contact.
[Notice: Skills
'I didn't even know I had those other skills.'
[Answer: You gained them passively]
'Oh later on that.'
Shoto raised his arms and then brought them down in diagonal directions.
Slash! Slash!
The silver bolt octopus protected itself from the emitted slashed by sacrificing to of silver orbs which exploded in it's face. This blinded it from the horizontal water blades that came from the left and right.
Slash!
The silver bolt octopus was split into three parts but a vertical slash from above split it into six.

[Congratulations you have gained the skill
'Electric Command Then what was the sky it used to manipulate those balls?'
[Answer: Those where slimes being manipulated with electricity]
'These monsters are way too intelligent,' Shoto sighed and swam up until he reached the surface.
"Haaa." He exhaled then inhaled.
The oxygen extracted from the water was quite poor compared to what was in the cave.
The cave was lit up by thousands of crystals imbedded in the walls and ceiling. Shoto got of the water and reached into his breast pocket.
"It's dry," the letter was bone dry unlike the rest of him.
Shoto put back the letter and ventured through the cave. The air in here carried the sent of moisture because of the numerous pools of water.
Shoto found himself a nice place to sit and meditate away from the pools of water where anything could jump out at him.
He sat down crossed his legs and took a deep breath, soon steam began to rise from his body as the water evaporated his clothes were dried in the process.
He began circulating ki through his body ,he found that using the Thousand Spring Breathing made his body hot so Shoto opted for a different technique.
The ki in his body had grown quite a lot even more than his grandfather's. When he got transported to this world his ki had increased by ten years adding to his twenty years of ki now it had increased by forty years.He clenched his hand several times feeling the force he had gained from it.
'What's this?'
Shoto was thinking of the black energy he had used earlier.
'It's strange the energy has a corrosive feeling to it.' Shoto manifested the black energy around his arm before dispersing it.
Shoto got up and had a good stretch before jumping away to evade something.
Chchchchchch!
Fishscales hit the spot Shoto was sitting on.
"Sheesh can't you guys give me a break," Shoto said looking down at his opponent.
