After Fang Yu's disappearance, Wang Yun felt uncertain about the future of Blue Star Captains. Influenced by Mr. Suo, who revealed Fang Yu's past absences and questioned his leadership, Wang Yun decided to rally the Blue Star Captains for war, much to the shock and dismay of Ma, who had been working to develop the West Cyan Continent.

His figure continued forward, and he quickly arrived at the external dock of the West Cyan Continent, where he indeed saw ships already anchored at the seaport, ready to depart at any moment.

Ma was taken aback, sweeping his gaze over the sight of an endless sea of ships, densely packed, likely numbering in the hundreds of thousands.

What does the concept of hundreds of thousands of ships mean?

It almost fills a small patch of sea completely, arrayed in a congested formation, exuding a daunting aura.

Although most of them are at the warship level, with only a few being the Extraordinary Ships, the very fact that there are hundreds of thousands of them, even if the average is only warship level, is entirely enough to contend with any top power in this world.

All of these have been gathered by Blue Star Captain, responding to the summons of Wang Yun, Fang Yu, and others. The Blue Star Captains have taken the West Cyan Continent as their territory, all sailing their ships there.

Though a considerable number of Blue Star Captains haven't arrived or don't intend to come, even just a portion of this strength is sufficient to sweep across the land.

This is the scale where billions from across the entire world descend.

Even in the Ocean World, such a scene where everyone is a soldier is rare to see.

This military strength was originally in Ma's plans to gradually let Blue Star Captains develop a sense of belonging through certain policies and developments in the West Cyan Continent, with their recognition for Wang Yun gradually turning towards Fang Yu, so their captain could truly build prestige within the Blue Star Captain community, controlling this military force.

But who would have expected that before order and commercial development were fully established, Wang Yun had already taken the lead.

Inwardly frustrated beyond measure, Ma said nothing and rushed directly to the forefront— at that moment, Wang Yun and his group were at the front command post, waiting for the army to assemble.

"Wang Yun!!" Ma shouted angrily, "With Captain Fang Yu not here, how dare you decide to muster the forces?"

"Have you forgotten who was primarily responsible for gaining control over the West Cyan Continent? Who provided you with refuge?"

Ma's voice was imbued with powerful Spiritual Level, echoing across the entire port, catching the attention of Wang Yun and his followers.

"How dare you!"

Before Wang Yun could speak, a captain of a Legendary Ship following him barked coldly, "Didn't the leader contribute to this battle? Didn't we contribute?"

"Without us, how could you have conquered this continent? Without our leader, how could you have matched Yuanqi?"

"The promises made by the leader have been kept; we owe nothing to Fang Yu. The reason we can gather our forces now is entirely due to the leader's hard-earned reputation over the years."

"If the leader didn't have this reputation among the Blue Star Captains, how could we mobilize our forces? We are blameless in this matter, so why disturb the morale?"

"You!"

Listening to the Legendary Ship captain, Ma was both shocked and furious.

The allegiance of the Blue Star Captains clearly resulted from various factors like territory, reputation, development, and systems, yet the others ignored everything else and spoke only of reputation, which was outright rogue behavior.

"Brother Ma He!"

At that moment, Wang Yun stopped his Legendary Ship captain and turned his sincere gaze towards Ma, speaking quietly:

"The current situation in the Sea Country is complex, with our Blue Star brethren in peril, yet Brother Fang Yu isn't on the West Cyan Continent."

"A moment's delay could mean countless comrades lost to war, used as cannon fodder."

"So I had no choice but to make this decision."

"Allow me to lead this battle!"

Wang Yun's face showed a remarkably serious expression, releasing a surge of Power Level energy from his body, transforming into a soaring beacon that changed the color of the sky.

An exceptionally murderous aura instantly flowed from Wang Yun.

He soared into the sky, gazing solemnly down at the Blue Star Captains below, and then, with tremendous Power Level energy enhancing his voice, it echoed into every Blue Star Captain's ear:

"Everyone!"

"We, the Blue Star navigators, have experienced cataclysm, forcibly entering this world and going from stable livelihoods to displacement, encountering exclusion and danger!"

"From the moment we entered this world, our mortality rate has never fallen below 50%."

"Pirates, wars, Sea Country persecution."

"Currently, our comrades are treated as cannon fodder, forced to hold the front lines, sacrificing for wars of the Sea Country that bear no benefit to us."

"I wish to end this. I want the Blue Star Captains to have a rightful place in this world, not to be treated as expendables."

"I want us to be respected in this world."

With hope on his face and sincerity in his eyes, Wang Yun remembered the first day they entered this world, when they were ordered around, and reminisced about the brothers helplessly taking dangerous tasks, only to be wiped out by pirates at sea.

Scene after scene, the first group of Blue Star Captains went through immense hardship, clawing their way forward.

They had no predecessors as support, nor any path to reference or guide them, and the road walked was fraught with hardship and bitterness.

At this moment, Wang Yun felt power flooding into his body, boosting him.

Simultaneously, a rope was tightly binding itself to him.

The Glory of the Era!

At this moment, the Glory of the Era, which initially rested on Fang Yu, quietly transferred to Wang Yun, further strengthening him.

The era's glory condensed by hundreds of thousands of ships was so intense and powerful that it formed a halo behind Wang Yun's head.

A fleeting sense of guilt passed through Wang Yun's eyes; he silently glanced at Ma in the distance and thought to himself, "I'm sorry, Brother Fang Yu, but this is my only choice."

Then, taking a deep breath and with a resolute look, Wang Yun declared, "All Blue Star brethren, we have been dormant for so long and have all grown!"

"This battle! We must let the world recognize the power of Blue Star Captains!"

"Everyone, follow me."

"Set forth!"

"Boom!!"

Thunder descended from the sky, striking Wang Yun again and again, forming Sky Dome Patterns.

At this moment, relying on the Glory of the Era of the Blue Star Captains, Wang Yun directly ascended to the late stage of the Sky Dome Ship.

"Boom! Boom!"

The thunder kept striking Wang Yun, who bathed in it like a descended deity, imposing and solemn.

All the Blue Star Captains stared dumbfounded at Wang Yun in the sky, bathed in thunder, feeling as if he were a god of the Blue Star Captain camp, bringing reassurance and joy.

Suddenly, the trust among the Blue Star Captains towards Fang Yu gradually shifted to Wang Yun.

Everyone's blood boiled, and loud voices cried, "War! War! War!"

"Set forth!"

Wang Yun no longer spared Ma another glance, knowing that there was no room for guilt now. With morale and spirit high, it was time to seize the momentum.

Thunder struck his body repeatedly, putting immense pressure on Wang Yun.

Yet he didn't make a sound, standing amidst the thunder, leading the army forward.

...

"This is bad!"

Seeing Wang Yun ascend to the late stage of the Sky Dome Ship at this moment, with thunder creating miraculous effects, Ma's expression turned serious, murmuring to himself.

He knew the previous scene seemed to align with perfect timing, terrain, and human factors, providing unmatched aid to shaping Wang Yun's image in the eyes of the Blue Star Captains.

After this thunderstorm, it could be said Wang Yun had established himself.

Not only had his power advanced further, but his prestige among the Blue Star Captains also reached a higher level.

If things continued like this, even if the captain returned, and the new order and development of the West Cyan Continent resumed, it would be hard to overturn Wang Yun's image in the eyes of the Blue Star Captains.

"Captain... where have you gone..."

"Wang Yun has stolen the Glory of the Era you had among the Blue Star Captains... can you sense it?"

Ma murmured softly, his eyes dazed.
