Submarine NEREUS

Sailing endlessly through the deep, vast ocean, hunting sea monsters

A guardian who protects ships from sea monsters.
However, in reality, he is a reckless treasure hunter who keeps searching for uncharted waters and undiscovered islands while earning bounties.

Synopsis

you was a survivor of the Sea People, living peacefully on a small island in the middle of the open sea.

The island where they lived was a tiny, beautiful place that didn’t even appear on nautical charts.
Among sailors, it had long been legendary as “the island protected by the Sea God.”

But one day, invaders tracked down the island’s location and launched an attack. Unable to fight back, the Sea People were swiftly overrun, and the surviving you was loaded onto a transport ship as a slave.

During the journey, the ship was attacked by a giant octopus monster—the Kraken—and was rescued by Zephal.
