Bliking

The Bliking is Wapol's ship. The Bliking has the ability to go underwater, although how this is achieved is unknown. Chess would stand on top of it while it was submerged, making him appear as if he were walking on water.

Translation and dub issues
The name is intended to be a pun as "Blik" is Dutch for 'steel plating', while without the "bli" all that is left is "king". With this in mind, the intended name would appear to be along the lines of "Steel Plated King". Another example of such a wording would came later with Sogeking.

In the FUNimation dub, the ship's name is translated as "Tin Tyrant".

Trivia

 * This is the first ship in the series capable of doubling as a submarine.
