"GRAAAKH!"
The furious giant crab, or well, the [Ocean of Time's Giant Red Crab Guardian Emperor], emerged! The giant, red-colored crab waste no time greeting us with an enormous tsunami, utilizing its large arrange of skills to control the oceans surrounding the monster's body, the Ocean of Time.
SPLAAAAASSSSHHH!!!
"Watch out!"
I quickly unleashed a barrier made of divine power, protecting my family from the enormous tsunami reaching us. It was incredibly powerful, but my Divine Barrier did not shatter.
The water suddenly began to change strangely though, as we saw countless stars and a whole cosmos emerging from the ocean itself, flowing freely all across the entire world surrounding us.
FLAAAASH!
"W-What is this sensation?" Benladann felt confused.
"Time… its being manipulated?!" Miranda realized.
"This is… I had never fought something that could control time…!" I said in surprise. "How does exactly time magic even works?"
"Papa! Look!" Benladra pointed at something… or more like a sound.
Tick… tock… Tick… tock… Tick… tock…
TRUUUUMMMM…!
Suddenly, we found ourselves…
On top of the sky?
Huh?!
"What happened?!" Benladra wondered.
"Nothing… happened?" Asked Miranda.
"Wuh…?" Benladra was just as confused.
"Papa!" Kate pointed her finger at the sea.
There were no crabs or anything at all there! It felt as if we returned back in time just before we entered the sea.
Wait a second, that's it.
That big crab didn't even fought us, he just used the ocean of time to send us straight back in time?!
"More like… the whole time within this area was rebound, but not the time elsewhere." I said.
"Eh?!" Benladann was even more confused. "S-So such a thing is possible…"
"Well, every monster has a gimmick I guess." Miranda said. "How do we deal with this?"
"How strange… So this giant crab just doesn't want to fight? It might keep throwing us away over and over." I said. "The only way we can deal with an enemy so unwilling to fight is by blasting it off the orbit… Wait, what if I freeze the ocean of time?"
As I though about it, I smiled, quickly transforming back into a dragon and then charging Mana into my throat, readying a powerful dragon breath and then firing it straight into the seas.
BOOOOOOOMMMM…!
The ice quickly continued freezing the sea, covering it into a beautiful landscape of white ice. However, from within it, an enormous shadow loomed, emerging from within and crushing the ice, jumping over the ice at the same time!
CRAAASH!
"GRAAAKH!"
It was the giant crab, and it seemed royally pissed at that!
"GRAAKH?! GRAKH!"
It seemed to be looking around in anger, as the entire sea was frozen, it was unable to completely bring it out to shake us away anymore.
"The same trick won't work a second time." I said. "Now fight us for real."
"GRAAAAAKH!"
TRUUUMMMM…!
The angered Crab jumped off the ice and suddenly conjured an enormous water bubble, which helped it float in midair. Its enormous pincers reached me faster than I could had expected of its enormous and heavy-looking body.
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!
I shielded myself from its powerful blows using my two arms and growing several layers of scales. My stats were way higher than this thing, yet it still packed quite the punch.
However…
"Aren't you getting a bit too cocky? Divine Wind Magic: [Atmospheric Bubble]!"
FLUOOOOSH!
An enormous bubble made of pressurized atmospheric air emerged, surrounding the entire crab, and then making it float in midair. The enormous beast angrily roared everywhere… but this had yet to end.
"[Divine Flames]! [Explosive Combustion]!"
FLUOOOOSSSHHHH!
The flames emerged from within the atmospheric bubble, combusting endlessly as an enormous quantity of flames started to burn through the giant crab.
"I'll make you into a boiled crab!"
"GYYSHAAAHHH!!!!"
The Crab roared in agony, but then quickly unleashed its strongest of magics, as an enormous amount of water emerged out of thin air from within its own body, destroying the bubble made of winds and flames in an instant, and throwing me down into the ice!
CRAAASH!
"Hey, you're not half bad." I laughed. "…However."
FLASH!
The green-colored ring in one of my hands, the [Yggdrasil's Garden Gorilla Guardian King's Ring] began glowing with a bright golden and green light, as it quickly imbued my body with the power of nature and life.
I gathered this power and combined it with my Mana and Divine Power, as I quickly gained the Gorilla's powers and abilities at the same time! This was one of the ring's amazing perks.

"[Destructive Rage of Nature]!"
TRUUUUMMMMM…!
Suddenly, my surroundings flourished as plants emerged everywhere, naturally. An enormous forest of gigantic trees and flowers popped up one after the other, grass, herbs, flowers, and more. And they all converged together, turning into an endless amount of vines and spears made of wood, clashing against the Crab who had fallen over the barren ice land!
CRAAAAASSSSHHHHH!!!
"GRYSHAAAAA…!"
The enormous crab couldn't fight this power as much as the other elements, nature itself drained away its power, water, very easily. Making it slowly dry out bit by bit… At the same time, the crab roared furiously, breaking through the ice as its oceans emerged once more, shaping as furious, spiraling water tornadoes reaching up to us!
SPLAAAASSSHHH!!
If that hits me, we'll rewind again!
However, I was too concentrated controlling nature, even with my newly acquired Nature Dragon Bloodline and the nature divinity, I was putting my all into stopping this damn crab!
"Drake!"
However, Benladann and Miranda emerged in front of the water. The two girls quickly unleashed an enormous attack, combining both their Ice Element and Chaos, freezing the spiraling water vortexes!
CRAAAAASSSHH!
At the same time, the crab succumbed to the Rage of Nature, as every root and branch grew inside of its body.
"GRAAAKH…!"
BAAAM!
