As the group of heroes prepared to face Poseidon, the Kingdom of the Mermaids was silent, yet charged with tension. The ocean currents seemed alive, undulating in response to the imminent chaos in the depths. Neptune, now leading Throk and Aelion, guided them through an underwater path where the waters glowed with bioluminescent lights.
The ocean began to change as they neared Poseidon's territory. The once peaceful sea creatures now showed signs of corruption, their scales darkened and their empty gazes betraying the dark influence of the one who had taken control of the God of the Seas.
- Neptune: "Poseidon has even corrupted the spirits of the waters. We need to be quick. His strength is growing."
The tension increased as they entered the Abyssal Domain, a dark and mysterious territory where Poseidon's control was absolute. The water there felt heavier, oppressing the heroes' movements. Neptune raised his hands, invoking his spiritual ability, Tide. The power of the water flowed at his command, opening a safe path and temporarily restoring calm.
- Neptune: "With me, the ocean is an extension of my body. But here, Poseidon's power threatens to overpower even the Tide. We need to unite."
Advancing deeper, they encountered an army of abyssal creatures—sea monsters that once served as guardians of balance but were now corrupted puppets under Poseidon's will.
- Throk: "The battle starts now."
The fight erupted with fury. Throk, with his brute strength, fought against the monsters, his weapons shining with spiritual energy. Aelion, using her spiritual techniques of light and wind, danced among the enemies, using her Root Manipulation to block attacks and create openings.
But it was Neptune who shone the brightest. With a powerful gesture, he summoned his technique, Devastating Tide, a massive wave of crystal-clear water that swept over the enemies, purging them of their corruption. Neptune's power was evident, but Poseidon's shadow still loomed.
Soon, they reached the Abyssal Throne, where Poseidon awaited. The God of the Seas, corrupted by the dark entity, looked at them with empty eyes filled with fury.
- Poseidon: "Do you dare challenge the sovereign of the oceans?" he said in a dark tone.
The ensuing battle was titanic. Poseidon, manipulating the waters with Tidal Dominion, created massive whirlpools and aquatic storms, each attack capable of crushing submerged mountains. Neptune, Aelion, and Throk fought with all their might, but they knew they were facing more than just a god—this was the very essence of chaos taking form in the ocean.
Neptune, channeling all the power of the Tide, confronted Poseidon directly.
- Neptune: "Father! Fight against this darkness!"
Poseidon hesitated for a moment, but the dark influence quickly regained control. The battle raged on, the waters trembled, and the fate of the seas hung in the balance.
