While Chun was indulging in his fantasies, he suddenly remembered that Old Whale was coming!
Originally, Old Whale following the Mermaids to "surrender" to Silver City was an unintended setup, which immediately let Fafnir know that the Whale and I were no longer connected. Now, if Old Whale shows up near Fafnir's ship and the battle gets intense, if Fafnir suddenly teleports and sees Old Whale, then won't my setup be undone?
No, I need to dive and signal Old Whale to keep its distance!
But now I'm on a big ship, and I'm the only driver; using a Holy Artifact Rope to tie myself and dive to signal is way too inconvenient—
But that's not right! Different times, different concerns; previously, I was worried about Fafnir gifting the overdue Black Flag Order, so I had to hold back to avoid being completely exploited. And indeed, I did hold back by drifting away from Evil Spirit Island.
