In the dock area of Fish Sail Port, the salty sea breeze couldn't dispel the tense heat as a conflict suddenly broke out.
A recently successful Puki Master heard the malicious taunts from several adventurers leaning against cargo boxes, aimed at the mycelium marks on his face.
With just three exchanges of heated words, rage overwhelmed the dam of reason, and fists took the place of pale arguments.
The scene instantly spiraled out of control.
Nearby Puki Masters saw this and immediately directed the Puki, who had been busily unloading fish from fishing boats, to gather around and support.
On the other side, the adventurers' companions also roared and joined the chaos. In an instant, the roars of men, the screams of women, and the unique "puff puff" sounds of Puki mingled together, as human fists and fungal tendrils clashed savagely.
With a screeching metallic sound, someone couldn't hold back and drew their weapon!
