Chapter 963: Southwestern Sea
After leaving the Western Sea, Vaan made a quick stop at the Red Dragon Clan to drop off more samples of Golden Dragon Blood.
At the same time, he also made arrangements for the UN to strengthen its border defenses, especially the Great Ratholos Empire. Due to its special relationship with the Sea Serpent Clan, it did not take him much time and effort to subjugate it.
In fact, the sea serpent leader took the initiative to swear allegiance upon seeing him. It was as if it had been expecting his visit. Moreover, the sea serpent leader's determination was even reinforced after seeing him in person.
No doubt, it had sensed his Boundless Sea and Sky Aura-or Conqueror's Aura, according to the marine clans.Nôv(el)B\jnn
Nevertheless, the Sea Serpent Clan was among the weaker marine clans and wasn't even the actual ruler of the whole Eastern Sea. It only occupied the Eastern Sea's westernmost sea region and was a subordinate clan to the Razorfang Serpent Clan.
However, due to its serpentine relationship with the Razorfang Serpent Clan, the Sea Serpent Clan enjoyed a better position in the Eastern Sea than most marine clans under its rule.
Unfortunately, its knowledge was quite limited to the Eastern Sea. It also rarely contacted the Razorfang Serpent Clan.
The Razorfang Serpent Clan just let it be.
As such, Vaan tasked the Sea Serpent Clan to initiate contact in his stead to see if it could locate the Razorfang Serpent Clan's main den or collect information on the other inner sea regions.
In the meantime, Vaan traveled to the Southwestern Sea to meet the Fighting Dolphin Clan. It was a strategic location for gauging and understanding the situation of the Southern Sea.
Vaan wasn't too worried about the Celestial Kingdom launching a sudden attack from the Northwestern Sea or Northern Sea.
After all, he still had the three Dreamcatchers to hold the fort.
Furthermore, the northernmost region of the continent was also cut off by the ever-growing Dimensional Crack.
With his spiritual connection to Valefor, it was a simple task to summon the Great Devils or their armies to defend the northern and eastern directions in a short time.
Vaan was aware of the concept that the tallest trees that stuck out of the forest would weather the most winds. As such, he didn't quite approve of Valefor becoming the Heavenly Devil of Gehenna.
However, ignoring the risks to his safety, he had to admit that the position also saved him a lot of time and offered many conveniences and benefits.
As such, he could afford to prioritize the Southwestern Sea's trips over the other Inner Seas.

In the Southwestern Sea, Vaan found the shallow waters to be much clearer and brighter. The sunlight penetrated more deeply into the seawater than the Western Sea.
The quartz sand and crystal corals also illuminated the sea floor with pretty colors.
