The Empire of the Seas
Poseidon, god of the seas, has reincarnated in the body of Julian Solo, heir to an immense fortune. Awakened by his sister Thetis, he decides to purify the world by submerging it beneath the waters.
His plan: to activate the seven Marine Pillars scattered across the four corners of the oceans. Each is guarded by a Marina general. The Knights must destroy them one by one to prevent the aquatic apocalypse.
The Marina Generals
The seven generals are the most powerful servants of Poseidon, each mastering a technique linked to the sea: Λyumnadès Caacus, Krishna of the Libra Mariner, Isaac of Kraken, Sorento of Siren, Kasa of Chrysaor, Io of Scylla and Thetis of the Moon Fish.

The conclusion of the Poseidon saga is a hymn to youth, faith and the hope that true values can withstand all divine storms.
