Though they prepared, there wasn't anything that came out.
The kid that had been pushed back looked at Ikki's group with a confused look since all he saw was them stopping all of a sudden.
He had heard the beep, but he didn't think anything of it.
Seeing that they weren't planning to move, the kid asked, "Is something wrong?"
Ikki's group calmed down a bit when they heard this, but they didn't let their guard down.
After all, what had reacted was the Holy Stone compass.
Since that compass reacted, that meant that there was something related to the Black Tide in front of them.
"Is your hideout in front of us?"
"Eh, how could you tell?" The kid was genuinely surprised to hear this.
Seeing this, there was a wry smile that appeared on Ikki's face.
Kids like this really didn't know anything, but that was a good thing as well.
"It's dangerous up ahead, so we can't bring you with us. We'll have to take you back first."
