Chapter 23

## Plot

Goggles, Gloves, and Emperor encounter the Salmonids but are having trouble what on do. Goggles asks on if it’s a cooking battle. Mask tells him that it’s their weapon and that they’ve got to fight back with their own weapons! They defeat some Salmonids and then Goggles, Gloves and Emperor take a break, Mask explains that those are regular Salmonids, The job at Grizzco Industries are very dangerous, They have to get the Golden Eggs from the Boss Salmonids, and the boss salmonids are like the Steel-Eel that Goggles and Emperor are riding on! Mask tells them to get off it as it’s not ride! But Emperor thinks it’s not a bad ride. Mask sees a Salmonid operating the machine and tells Gloves to attack it, Something gold appears from the Salmonid and Mask explains that those were Golden Eggs. He tells Goggles to put the into the basket. They have to collect enough to meet the quota. Mask tells them that there are a lot of Boss Salmonids and warns them to be careful, Then Emperor and Goggles were caught in the mouth by a Maws, and Mask gets mad at them for not being careful, Then he helps them to get out of the Salmonid, He can ink his friends to help them! They continue to defeat the Salmonoids, Gloves dodge rolls and defeats some Salmonids and Goggles says “Booyah!” to him which dissatisfies Mask, Emperor then rapidly defeats a lot of Salmonids which impresses Mask, The King will always be the King even though working in a Part Time Job! Mask was worried because everyone was a rookie part timer but they might be able to fulfill the quotas!!

Goggles puts on a pot which makes Mask worried and puts up a good fight for real! Mask is starting to get tired of his little jokes!

They complete Wave 1 and 2, When they reached the final wave, the water level rose as it’s high tide! The stage is now small and Goggles fell in the water!

Too many Salmonids rush onto the stage giving the inklings no room! Then, more trouble came when a Steelhead Boss Salmonid came on stage! He attacks them with a steel head bomb, in which Gloves wants to get rid of that guy first! Then, way too many Boss Salmonids attack! At this rate the inklings will be defeated! So Goggles decides to inflate himself and compete against the steelhead, He then floated away, The Steelhead has lowered its guard and the Inklings decide to aim for the bomb on it’s head and they defeat him!

They still have time to get more golden eggs! Gloves and Emperor broke through the Salmonids’s line and Emperor praised Gloves, which he didn’t do before. Mask lied to the Salmonids that he was going to run them down with his roller and lied to them by using Splat Bomb Launcher! Goggles uses Splashdown to get out of a group of Salmonids who are attacking him. As a team of four, they can complete the job easily, They defeat the Salmonids and collect the golden eggs just in time!

The quota is fulfilled and the Salmonids are leaving! Mr. Grizz then asks them to head back to the boat, The four of them super jump back to the boat, Mask, Emperor and Gloves manages to make it on, but Goggles fell in the sea and to make matters worse, the boat returns automatically!

Goggles ends up in an underground facility and an Octoling sees him and is confused.
