After getting used to the pain, the African catfish turned its body around, angerly opening its mouth wide, and it suddenly accelerated toward the small eel that had bitten it, charging at it with great speed, intent on revenge!
This scene suddenly made the audience break out in a cold sweat.
The size difference between the small eel and the big catfish was more than double. Could it really stand a chance against the other?
In the midst of everyone’s anxious gaze, the African catfish rushed towards the ninety-plus-pound pike. Its huge body was like a terrifying submarine, while the pike appeared much more petite, as if it would be crushed by the oncoming opponent at any moment.
But the small eel didn’t flee. Instead, it swam directly towards its adversary, face to face.
Was it really seeking a head-on confrontation?
Sure enough, the pike was brave!
But could it really win?
The audience was both excited and nervous, but they didn’t have to wait long for the outcome.
The big catfish and the small eel charged at each other rapidly, and upon contact, the big catfish opened its jaws wide to bite, but the pike, with a forceful swish of its tail, suddenly changed direction like a dragon, twisted its body, and neatly dodged the opponent’s mouth.
At the same time, it slammed into the African catfish with a tremendous force.
Despite the obvious disparity in size, this hit was powerful and heavy, as the small eel’s speed was incredibly fast.
And since the pike’s body was as sturdy as reinforced iron, the impact caused the entire body of the big catfish to tremble and recoil, instantly losing its balance.
At the same moment, another catfish, weighing 120 pounds, seized the opportunity to strike from behind the African catfish.
Taking advantage of the African catfish’s loss of balance, it accelerated and swiftly approached, biting into the latter half of the African catfish’s body.
This bite was nearly in the same spot as the previous pike’s, truly adding insult to injury.
Instantly, the water churned tumultuously, with the big catfish struggling in pain, attempting to break free, while the big eel, relentless and ruthless, clamped down on its prey without letting go.
Moreover, the big eel executed a ferocious head-shake, generating an extremely horrifying tearing force under its vigorous motion.
Along with its sharp teeth and terrifying bite force, blood quickly tainted the water red.
And the wound on the African catfish’s body was visibly enlarging.
Eventually, the African catfish’s tail got torn off completely.
In just two rounds, each pike delivered a deadly blow, causing the ferocious big catfish to end up severely maimed, having lost half its tail.
Following the loss of half its tail, the African catfish, although possessing strong vitality, did not lose its life immediately; however, its mobility was severely impacted.
And in the confined aquarium, where space was already limited for movement and evasion, reduced mobility meant being at an absolute disadvantage in combat.
The contest between the pike and the African catfish seemed to be decided.
The audience, who had been on edge, finally relaxed, quietly anticipating the two eels claim victory in this battle.
Indeed, the two eels did not disappoint everyone, as it appeared the blood in the water also stirred their innate nature.
In the time that followed, they became even more savage and coordinated, with one in the front and one behind, launching a joint assault on the big catfish.
The African catfish, having lost half of its tail, was completely devoid of the ability to resist.
Even though it kept its mouth open, trying to bite the two adversaries, the pikes, known as the tigers of the water, moved extremely quickly and were very agile. Especially in comparison to the African catfish, they seemed lightning-fast.
Every time the African catfish spotted an opportunity to attack, the two pikes had already deftly dodged the threat.
And in dodging, they did not move far away but instead circled around to the African catfish’s blind spots on the side or behind, and then struck back, silently inflicting another bite.
Every counterattack left large or small wounds on the body of the African catfish.
The accumulation of these wounds gradually turned the African catfish from spirited and aggressive to increasingly sluggish in its reactions, until it finally became completely listless.
In the end, it rolled over to show its white underbelly.
The 200-plus-pound giant African catfish was bitten to death while still alive.
This whole process might sound lengthy, but it actually happened in just a few short minutes.
After the death of the African catfish, the two pikes swam around its corpse, each tearing off a piece of flesh. This was their spoils of war, as well as their food.
However, after having just one bite each, the two pikes soon spat out the chewed fish flesh, and rather humanlike, made a slightly disdainful expression.
By the looks of it, they weren’t too pleased with the taste of the African catfish.
It was only at this moment that the viewers of the show finally laughed.
"The pikes are badass; they managed to take down the African catfish that’s so much bigger."
"Who would have thought that the usually solitary pike would cooperate at a crucial moment? This is truly the tiger of the water!"
"Even terrestrial tigers are usually solitary but sometimes cooperate as well."
"I think they resemble killer whales more, being powerful individuals who also understand teamwork, practically invincible."
"These two pikes are too funny; they spit out the catfish meat after just one bite. The funniest part is, their expressions were like saying, ’What kind of trash is this? So disgusting!’"
