1953 Sea King: Starting with a Showa-Era Ama Diver's Family

He had barely transmigrated when more than a dozen female divers, white cloth tied around their waists, surrounded him, all fighting to take him in as a live-in son-in-law!

It was 1953 on Zamami Island. There was a severe shortage of men, prices were soaring, and a brutal fishmonger ruled the roost, driving widows to sell their blood just to survive.

From the start, he was a destitute man without even legal status, but unexpectedly awakened superhuman physical potential!

He could sense changes in the water's temperature and predict fish migrations a kilometer away. He could tear apart hundred-jin monsters with his bare hands and dive a hundred meters as easily as walking on land!

No one could reach the reef slope forty meters out? That was his private pantry, where he hauled up baskets of precious sea cucumbers and luminous conchs worth a fortune!

The fish tyrant dared to set fire to the drying grounds? He broke all four of his limbs on the spot, then used the American military police to raid his entire household!

From a beat-up wooden boat to salvaging shipwrecks and assembling his first powerful motor sailboat; from a small fishing village cooperative to a seafood empire spanning Hong Kong and Osaka.

An American military procurement officer treated him like a brother, and a shipbuilding heiress gave him her heart. When a Tokyo-based oceanic conglomerate tried to swallow his empire, they had no idea that a pair of cold, faintly glowing eyes had already locked onto their prey in the pitch-black depths. In these waters, who truly stood at the top of the food chain?
