Krune soon noticed that while they had been talking, the Seamstress had been panting a little, a sign of exhaustion. It seemed she had been on the trail of the pirates all along and hadn't managed to get enough rest yet. 

'This isn't good.' Krune thought before asking her, "Do you want to eat something?"

He didn't even wait for a reply as he approached a relatively large cupboard, opened it and used the knife lodged within to scoop up some slices of meat. He then placed them on a plate and presented them to the Seamstress before telling her, "The taste is bland since there aren't any spices. But, it is edible."

"Thank you," the Seamstress replied, expressing her surprise when Krune gave her cutlery to use and also pulled up a piece of board from the walls that he used to set up a temporary table. The arrangements were a bit crude in any other place. However, they were luxurious in the ocean area, where people were constantly adrift and didn't have enough space or materials to create anything elaborate. 

And in such a situation, Krune managed to create basically everything he needed. 

Upon seeing her reaction, Krune asked, "Did you spend the past year on these waters?"

Hearing his question, her eyes lit up as she asked in response, "Were you from the first batch as well?"

"I'm from the Zamuria Continent." Krune nodded. 

"So, you must have heard about me." The Seamstress nodded after hearing his words, realizing why Krune was being polite with her all along.

"A crazy genius did praise your efforts. Plus, he's the type to never care about people. With that, I could recognize you immediately." Krune smiled as he began to eat quickly. Well, even though he was speaking, he had kept his Sonic Radar active all along. So, his speech acted as signals that scouted their surroundings and ensured they weren't ambushed by anyone.

Now that he was on the ocean once again, Krune realized just how overpowered the Sonic Radar was in terms of detection. He basically had no limitations over the range. 

"What was his name? Maybe I might know him," the Seamstress expressed her curiosity as she asked. At present, the two of them emitted a gentle light, keeping the place well illuminated. This way, they were able to eat at peace.

"He called himself Cultivator." The moment he mentioned the name, the hands of Seamstress paused for a couple of seconds before resuming her eating.

She looked at Krune like he was a monster before saying, "A crazy genius indeed."

As Cultivator was from her continent, she knew of him very well. Considering his antics, anyone he considered as a companion would be equally as powerful and eccentric as him. With that, she began to treat Krune on the same level as she would have done to Cultivator, thinking to herself, 'I'm curious of his abilities as a cultivator. Hopefully, I'll get a chance to see once we leave this place.'

"Well, it wasn't just because of your character that I invited you. It's also because you won't try anything on this boat and would be able to sense anything amiss instantly," Krune spoke, noticing that the Seamstress wasn't completely confused, realizing that she had indeed sensed some danger from within the boat. "Well, just consider this boat as a beast that would devour you if you carelessly touch it."

The Seamstress was alarmed when Krune waved his hand, speaking after a chuckle. "There's nothing to be worried about. I have closed it under multiple layers. On top of that, you'll only be affected if you touch it with an open wound. Otherwise, you'll be fine."

"I see." The Seamstress nodded as she finished eating. She then landed on the boat tied beside and crouched, using the ocean water to clean the plate. 

After finishing his meal, Krune, too, did the same. Satiated, he observed the baby once, wondering how he would feed it. 

"Directly feeding him meat would be harmful. Supplying the nutrients through a juice of sorts would be appropriate," the Seamstress said when Krune stared at her in silence, continuing to look at her. Only after a couple of seconds did she realize his intention, snorting as she replied, "I don't have breast milk."

"Then, there is only one option," Krune muttered as he cut out a cube-sized piece of meat from the cupboard that stored meat. He then placed it on top of something and took in a deep breath, activating his Ocean Heart as he used its healing effect.

By activating his Neon Radiance, he emitted a blue beam of light into the meat cube, increasing the intensity as the Seamstress could feel its effects even from far away. She was shocked internally, able to sense the image of the ocean appear in her mind as she concentrated on the blue beam of light for long.

'As expected of a friend of Cultivator,' she thought as she observed. 'He has the Neon Radiance and is able to use it to heal others. A rather valuable ability since its effect looks many times better than the healing effect in the ocean.'

"What do you plan to do with this?" the Seamstress asked after observing for some time.

"Well," Krune spoke after a moment of thought, speaking without any hesitation. Through his experience, he was able to judge that the Seamstress was someone who could be trusted. Well, having a teammate would help him on his journey and allow him to harvest Godly Points faster. "My healing ability is no different from the Water Essence sold in the Checkpoint Turtle. Since it can even regenerate limbs, I'm planning to seep the essence in this piece of flesh and then squeeze it so that I can obtain some in liquid form. Feeding the baby this would be better, right?"

"Hopefully. Indeed, it might be better." She nodded, speaking after a moment of thought, steering the boat at times, "Since we've decided to act as a team, let's introduce ourselves further."

She pointed at herself before saying, "My goal to arrive at this place was to prevent people from slaughtering each other in the face of treasures. I thought I would be able to do something with the followers I brought. But all of us were separated at Layer 4, and I haven't managed to see anyone yet. I hoped to see at least one of them since the Checkpoint Turtle is able to pull us towards itself automatically upon its arrival, but unfortunately, none of my followers are here."

"I have filled all five of my passive ability slots." She then lifted her hand, showing a coral sword as she explained, "This is my most important ability, Coral Wave. It's an accumulation-based ability when I slowly create coral on my body. It is also developed by consuming the deposits from my body. Among its uses, one is to store the healing effects in the ocean water and store it inside the created coral. This way, it would eventually be able to condense a Water Essence. Though, just as that Octopus had said, it took me a year to do so."

"Since it's stronger than a normal passive ability, I began to call it a mutated passive ability. The second one is called Heat Radiance, a mutated version of Neon Radiance. Using this ability, I can also emit heat when necessary. With that said, I can even emit a domain beyond which my heat of light will not move. They will simply lose power and vanish beyond the designated point." Saying so, she emitted heat from her palm, warming up the place a little. 

"My third ability is Bubble Touch, something I rely on all the time. It allows me to mark any place I touch, whether it's stationary or moving. That works as a compass for me, so I can track anyone easily." She smiled before continuing, "My fourth ability is Thermal Sight, allowing me to see all heat signatures. While using Heat Radiance, I can increase the effectiveness of this ability."

She then displayed her dagger, causing it to emit intense heat enough to melt objects upon touch, stating with a smug expression, "My Coral Wave and Heat Radiance are completely synchronized to one another. So, I use the Heat Radiance to refine my corals and improve their quality. This way, I can continue to increase the power of my sword without limit. Also, I store a lot of heat inside and just release it in times of necessity."

"And with that, the final ability is Moving Water." The Seamstress smiled, motioning for Krune to talk about his abilities so that the two of them coordinate with greater ease in future battles. As they were bound to use the abilities, information about them would be known anyway. So, it was best to learn about them first hand so that they could use the knowledge to their advantage and fuel their growth further. 

As he heard details regarding her abilities, Krune was in awe. The Seamstress had passive abilities that greatly complemented one another. And most of all, the Coral Wave was an accumulation-based ability. 

His Spiritual Incarnation and Cultivator's Spiritual Incarnation were accumulation-based. So, Krune knew the advantages of such an ability. At the start, it would be super weak. But in its later stages, it would become overpowered.

Krune then expressed his doubts as he asked, "Why do you not have Underwater Breathing? Surely considering your rank, you must have more than enough Godly Points to obtain it. In this layer, being able to breathe underwater is a must."

Krune had said it because the Seamstress was ranked 64th, rather high. With that, there wasn't any wide gap between her rank and the one at 50th place. Most of them were close to one another. There was a good chance everyone among the top 100 would have been cultivators with Spiritual Incarnations. Only then would they have been able to obtain sufficient Godly Points in layer 4.

So, having such a high rank was incredible. This was to be noted that all along, even Krune had never slacked and had always been trying to increase his advantages. Sure, he spent most of his time in Layer 4 trying to create Pestlor. But even then, it showed the competition in the place. 

Hearing his question, the Seamstress laughed as she replied, "That is because even if it isn't efficient, Moving Water allows us to breathe to a certain extent. Efficiency-wise, it's only half of Underwater Breathing. But, this ability is just a plus while allowing us to move in water at great speeds. With a simple comparison, and considering our limited five slots for passive ability, it is apparent which one is superior, right?"

"That it is." Krune nodded, sighing as he began to talk about his passive abilities. Once he spoke about Ocean Heart, it was the Seamstress's turn to look at him with her mouth agape, astounded.
