      The ship arrived at the desired location and Amy and Rouge asked them to stop. They remembered that it was above this part of the ocean that there was a crystal palace where they had lived before. Having stopped here, the soldiers aimed their cannons straight down and opened fire on the underwater kingdom. One of the soldiers even took dynamite, lit the fuse and threw it into the water. The rest followed him and did the same and threw dynamites into the water in the same way. — Bomb down! — Robotnik said to himself and also threw dynamite. Cannonballs and ignited dynamites fell to the bottom and exploded and slightly destroyed the crystal palace. One of the dynamites even fell right onto the wedding cake with a figurine of Biara sitting on the throne. The dynamite explodes, destroying the figure along with the cake. Biara was shocked by what she saw and stretched out her hand towards the cake and screamed: — NO-O-O!!! MY CAKE!!! — her anger knew no bounds. — “You made me angry!” — after these thoughts, she put Silver on the floor and before swimming away, said: — Just wait for me here! Otherwise, when I return, I will kill you right away. And Biara swam to the surface, but Silver did not listen to her, he barely got up on the stupas of his feet and began to jump from here with his legs tied, so that he himself would not be hit by cannonballs and dynamite. And from above they still continue to fire from the ship's cannons, set fire to dynamites and throw them into the water. Knuckles, setting fire to his dynamite, even sang: — T-N-T Dyna-ami-ite! Tails smiling, rolling or eyes from such a refrain from Knuckles, but still he had a little fun from it. Then he made a serious face, pointed towards the sea and gave the command: — Fire! Hans Anderson, at Tails' command, also threw dynamite into the water, although he forgot to set fire to this one. Therefore, this dynamic checker sinks down without lighting the fuse. At that moment, the sea king was the first to emerge from under the water, on a water platform rising upward like a fountain, standing on his tail and looking menacingly at the ship. He noticed Amy and Rouge among the people on the ship, who pointed her finger at him and said: — Here he is! — You little people dare to challenge me? ME??? THE SEA KING??? — Tyraton shouted, his trident already glowing with a red glow. The sea king waved his trident, pointed it at the ship and shouted: — ATTACK, MY FAITHFUL SOLDIERS!!! Mermen immediately began to emerge from under the water, armed with swords and shields, riding dolphins, sharks, stingrays and small killer whales. They all swam to attack the ship itself. — ATTA-A-ACK!!! — prince Sonic commands, pointing his finger at the sea king’s troops. All the ship's cannons aimed at Tyraton's troops and began firing at them. Some cannonballs hit some merman-soldier and knocked him down along with his faithful fish, and someone dodged in time and swam on. Following their father, the sons and daughters of Tiraton also emerged, except for Biara for now. They also took out their swords and shields and swam to attack. — BE CAREFUL, KIDS!!! — the father was worried about them. Biara emerged last, though without a shield, but with only one dagger in her right hand. Yes, she suddenly emerged and jumped out of the water, like a flying fish running away from predators. She flew up in a jump out of the water and flew straight towards the ship. She almost reached Robotnik with the ship's cannon, which he was reloading. It seemed that she was about to swoop down on him and plunge her dagger into his head, when suddenly Rouge arrived in time to protect that chubby guy with a mustache, putting her sword under the blow of the blade and repelling her blow. Almost falling back into the water, Biara manages to grab the ship's railing with her free hand and press on the witch's sword. — Rouge! — looking menacingly at the sea witch, she said her name. The latter did the same: — Biara! While Rouge fought off Biara with her dagger with her sword, trying to throw her off the side, Robotnik moved his cannon away from them so as not to disturb them and continued to shoot back from the rest of the mermaids with the mermaids in the water. The remaining children of Tyraton, together with the remaining mermaid soldiers, at this time managed to reach the ship itself from below and, clinging to the wooden walls with their clawed fingers and sticky hands, like the suction cups of a starfish, climb up. From above, the soldiers of Prince Sonic and Princess Sally, who tied themselves with chains around their waists with one end of the chains, and secured their other ends to the mast of the ship, looked down. Noticing that the mermaids are climbing onto their ship from below, they go down to meet them, simultaneously shouting: — TO BATTLE!!! — FOR PRINCE SONIC!!! — FOR PRINCESS SALLY!!! — FOR THE UNION!!! Jumping to the middle of the side walls of the ship, the soldiers land with their feet on the walls themselves, as if on the floor, take out their swords with shields and begin to fight off the mermaid soldiers, trying to beat them back into the ocean. One of the mermaid soldiers held on and tried to thrust his sword into the chest area of the human soldier, but he bounced off the wall, flew around the mermaid thanks to the chain and hit him from the shoulder, causing him to lose his hold and fall. — This is impossible! They are cooler than all of us! They don't even have a number! — said one of Tyraton's younger daughters. — GET BACK INTO YOUR SWAMP, YOU FREAKS!!! — Knuckles shouted, throwing a large pile of ignited dynamite, which fell into the water and immediately exploded with such force that all the water from above poured out in strong splashes and threw several mermaids and mermaids into the air, like a person from a blast wave. The two ship's cannons aimed directly at the sea king and opened fire on him. The latter fired a red beam from his trident and destroyed two cannonballs that were flying towards him. They shot at him again with two more and the sea king rose even higher, causing the fountain stream of water to rise even higher. A couple more cannonballs flew through this wave without even causing damage to it. The angry Tyraton breathed through his teeth, raised his trident up and began to spin it, summoning a bunch of clouds in the sky and trying to cause a hurricane. Clouds covered the sky with the sun and a thunderstorm began. True, no rain. Afterwards, the sea king sank down and dipped his trident into the water, spinning it around in the water and saying: — You are ridiculous, pathetic fools for daring to attack me. I am the ruler of all oceans. Not only the waves, but also the heavens obey me. I will unleash a huge storm on you and it will destroy you all. A whirlpool forms under the king of the sea, which sinks to the very bottom and pulls with it from under the water several sunken ships of other sailors. Even the same combat frigate, which was still afloat, moved and began to float around a large whirlpool. Robotnik ran to the helm and tried to steer the ship away from the whirlpool, when suddenly other ships began to emerge from under the water, almost falling apart. They also circled around the whirlpool and prevented the frigate from turning around to sail. One of the ships collided sideways with the frigate and such shaking was created that Robotnik was thrown from the helm. Then Prince Sonic took his place, grabbing the steering wheel in his hands. One of the large waves of water attacked the frigate and splashed with such force that the mermaid Biara was thrown over and she ended up on board the ship. Now lying on her side, she fought off the witch’s sword with one hand and one dagger. With her other free hand, she quietly swung and knocked Rouge off her tentacles, as if off her feet, knocking her to the floor of the deck. Biara then jumps on her stomach and tries to plunge a dagger into her heart. Rouge grabs the sides of the dagger with both palms and tries to hold it, but the evil mermaid was a little stronger physically and even laughed evilly. — Now you will die, woman lover. — ROUGE!!! — Robotnik shouted, stood up and ran to her aid. Running up, the prince's uncle grabs the mermaid's tail with both hands. - Wow! Gotcha? — Let me go, freak! — Biara snapped, unable to fight back. — That’s I hear from the freak girl! — Robotnik answered and threw the evil mermaid overboard. She flew back into the water screaming. Afterwards he extends a helping hand to the witch and helps her up. — Thank you friend. — she says to him and hugs him around the waist. Mustache, having forgotten for a minute that there was a battle going on now, also hugged her back. — I see you still don’t give up? — asked the sea king, rose again on a long water fountain, collected a couple of ordinary lightning bolts from the sky into a trident and fired red ones from it at the frigate. — I'll burn you to ashes! Rouge noticed a shot of red lightning and began to speak to the thunderstorm, even as her eyes without pupils began to shine white. — Save us, for there is nowhere to run. Lightning power, strike again! Regular lightning struck from the sky again, hitting the red lightning and dissolving it, preventing it from reaching the ship. — What the?... — the sea king wanted to curse, but restrained himself, deciding to try again. He charged his trident with regular lightning again and shot red lightning. — Power of lightning, come under your feet! — Rouge spoke again to the thunderstorm and again ordinary lightning struck the red one in response. — Gotcha? — asked the badger Anderson, aiming the ship's cannon at Tyraton himself and shooting straight at him. While the king was again loading his trident with lightning, a cannonball flew towards him and knocked him down. The sea king did not have time to dodge and flew along with the cannonball back into the water. Afterwards, Hans raised his fist to the top and jumped, saying: — Yes! On the first try! Well, at least he did something useful for the main characters in order to at least somehow influence the plot. Is not it? The clouds immediately parted to the sides, the whirlpool slowly disappeared from sight, and the dilapidated ships sank back to the bottom of the ocean. The battle between the mermaids and the people on the combat frigate itself was still ongoing. — He’s been shot down, but where is Silver himself? — Knuckles asked. — I will find it! — the witch answered and jumped from the ship into the water. Fortunately, she herself was half a fish and could breathe underwater. None of the mermaid soldiers and mermaids noticed her as they continued to fight against the human ship for now. Tyraton was lowered onto the sand and pinned against him by a cannonball. Through force, he was barely able to move the ball away from himself and stand up again. Biara swims to his aid. — Dad, how are you? — It's okay, Biara! I've been injured worse in the past. — he assured her and swam upward again. — Up! We won't give in to them so easily. Rouge floated on her tentacles to the crystal palace, which almost looked dilapidated with cracks due to the explosions of dynamites and cannonballs. Swimming to the throne room, she finds Silver tied up there in chains and with a breathing bladder on his head. When he saw her, at first he was scared, thinking that she was one of those evil mermaids. In an attempt to swim away, he fell on his back and began to fool around on the floor and shout: — GO AWAY!!! GO AWAY, MONSTER!!! GO AWAY!!! — Hush, hush, hush, Silver, don’t be afraid! I'm Rouge! It's me, Rouge! Rouge! Don't you recognize me? Rouge! — she declared, swimming up to him and grabbed him by the waist, placing him on her right shoulder. — Don't be afraid! We are all here to save you. And Prince Sonic, and Princess Sally, and even Amy Rose are also here to save you. — Amy! — said the white hedgehog and a smile with tears of joy formed on his face. Rouge had just begun to swim away from the crystal palace to the surface along with the hedgehog she had saved, when suddenly two mermaid guards stood in the way. — Stand! Put the prisoner back, Miss Rouge! — You are under arrest for returning to a place where you were forbidden to return and assisting our enemies. — What do you say to this? — the octopus bat asked them, raised its tentacles towards them and splashed a huge pile of ink, which, dissolving in the water, formed a black cloud. The mermaid guards fell under it and coughed, and while they were distracted by this, Rouge quickly swam up with Silver. — It’s not for nothing that I decided to remain half an octopus. This is where my ability to squirt ink came in handy. — It looks and sounds a little disgusting. No offense! — Silver answered her. At this time, on the ship itself, Tails opened his box with a crowbar and took out a large machine made from a chair, a scope, a handle with a stick, a pair of wires and a very large magnet. The fox sits down on the seat itself, aims the magnet towards the sea and waits for King Tiraton himself to emerge again. At the same time, he said to Knuckles: — When I give the signal by waving my hand like this, quickly turn this handle counterclockwise and this magnet will attract the trident of the sea king, disarming him! — Understood. — Knuckles answers and grabbed the stick on the handle with both hands. — A-ah. Question! Counterclockwise is... — Left, down, right and up! — the fox answers him. — Now I understand. The Sea King surfaced back to the surface at that very moment and aimed straight at the ship with his trident, which was shining very brightly with a red glow. — NOW!!! — Tails shouted, waving his right hand and Knuckles began to twist the crank. True, at first he made a mistake and turned it clockwise. Because of this, the magnet only slightly pushed the sea king back, which made him very freaked out and tried to keep his balance on a kind of fountain. The fox slapped himself on the forehead and shouted: — IDIOT, I SAID COUNTERCLOCK-WISE, NOT CLOCKHAND!!! From what he heard and realizing that he was mistaken, this time the echidna began to turn counterclockwise. By that time, the king again aimed at the frigate, but suddenly his trident itself began to be pulled towards the ship. Tiraton did not understand what kind of unknown force was pulling his trident towards the ship and tried to pull it towards himself. — What the powers of heaven? What kind of human hocus-pocus is this? — he asked himself, trying to pull the trident as hard as he could. He even almost succeeded. — Works! But he tries to resist the power of magnetism. Increase the force of attraction! — the fox commands and the echidna accelerates the movement of the handle counterclockwise, after which the magnet itself begins to attract the trident more strongly to the frigate. A couple of soldiers with ship cannons took aim at the king himself and began to shoot at him. He did not stop trying to pull the trident towards himself and tried to dodge the cannonballs, moving his waist first to the left, then to the right side. Sally stood on the bow of the ship with a megaphone and began shouting through the megaphone: — SURRENDER, KING TIRATHON!!! YOUR RESISTANCE IS USELESS AND THERE IS NO WHERE ELSE TO GO!!! — NEVER, LAND PEOPLE!!! — the king shouted back. Rouge, together with Silver and his burst air bubble on the surface of the water, emerge, get to the ship and climb up the wall of the ship with the help of Velcro on tentacles. Two soldiers, holding on to chains wrapped around their waists, noticed Silver, whom she was holding on her shoulder, let her pass along with the hedgehog, and then began to fight off the rest of the mermaid warriors. At the railing itself, Amy gave her hand to the witch and helped her climb aboard. — Thank you, Rose! — the witch thanked the hedgehog and put Silver on his feet on the deck. The hedgehog looked at Amy and was very happy to see her, just as she was him. — Amy!... You came back for me! — he said, and she just silently hugged him. If Silver hadn't been tied up, he would have been able to hug her back too. But I just had to close my eyes and slightly tilt my head onto her shoulder. Rouge at this time took out a bottle of red liquid. Having watered it on the chains with which the white hedgehog was tied, the chains dissolved and fell. Now the hedgehog's arms and legs were free, so they could hug the hedgehog back. After the hug, the hedgehog continued to say: — You can’t even imagine how glad I am to see you! — It’s too early to celebrate victory, my boy. — Rouge tells him behind Amy, jokingly calling him her son. — This battle is not over yet.
