Here, the peak is even higher than Mount Everest, the Grand Canyon than the United States but also the valley deep; here, any kind of biological have brutal than land animals, fierce. 3 years old, dark blue, experienced a 7.2 magnitude earthquake strongly. Mother to lead the entire family fled the horror of the place, dark blue survived, but his little partner thus bottom of the sea. Experienced the first time in life to death, the dark blue to follow the entire family, began his sea journey. When the whole group went to the volcanic depths of the foraging and dark blue and a group of pregnant mothers were the siege of killer whales. Deep Blue injured in the battle, but also first met his idol, but also have a little sister. Since then, his life changed.

He beat the young rival, won the favor of a group of Pacific female sperm whales, opened a new chapter in life. Deep Blue is already 80-year-old veteran of the deep ocean. As a threat to humanity, he was forced to migrate to the Antarctic, the line to the waters in Hawaii, he was involved in a human war, the submarine encountered unprecedented monster - submarine. In the 80-year career, Deep Blue has done a total of nearly 50 million diving; he had and partners in Greenland and the Falkland Islands between the volcanic mountains hunting; he had been around the Cape of Good Hope, arrived in the Pacific, where the tough start life. The ocean, dark blue more than 60 children.
