This Is What It Means to Destroy a Nation!
One!
Two!
Eleven ships!
Yamamoto Sanjūhachi carefully counted the silhouettes of the aircraft carriers that kept emerging from the sea fog. When he counted to the eleventh ship, his heart died completely.
A total of 11 aircraft carriers now stand in an arc above the sea, tightly surrounding all the Challengers ships and blocking all escape routes.
Like a sturdy sea fortress, standing amidst raging waves.
In addition, hundreds of smaller warships surrounded these 11 aircraft carriers, arranged in a cluster, creating a sense of being surrounded by stars.
These small warships are diverse, including cruisers, destroyers, minehunters, and mine countermeasures ships.
Even submarines were breaking through the giant waves, surfacing, and gathering around the aircraft carrier.
Looking through the sea fog, the 11 aircraft carriers stood like 11 statues on the sea, supporting the night sky. It seemed as if they were using immense force to tear the heavens and earth apart.
The other ships, like devout followers, stood guard tenaciously in front of the aircraft carrier!
Together they form an insurmountable wall at sea!
Invaders from the Eastern Ocean Islands!
[You violated Eagle Sauce Country territory and damaged Eagle Sauce Country Military Bases without Eagle Sauce Country's permission!]
You are the eternal enemies of the Eagle Sauce Country! The Eagle Sauce Country will punish all aggressors in the name of freedom and peace!
Eleven aircraft carriers began using loudspeakers to address the Challengers's last remaining forces at sea!
The sound was deafening, almost rupturing Yamamoto Sanjūhachi's eardrums.
"This..."
"Is this the naval power of the Eagle Sauce?!"
"Is this the real Nation-Destroying Fleet?!"
Yamamoto Sanjūhachi felt like he was suffocating. The chill of the sea breeze, combined with his emotional turmoil, made him dizzy, as if he had fallen into an endless abyss.
Then, he knelt heavily on the deck.
"No match for them!"
"We are absolutely no match for them..."
Although the Eagle Sauce has a relatively small number of ships at sea, perhaps only around a thousand in total, their quality is far superior to that of the ordinary cruisers on the Eastern Ocean Islands.
This is simply not a force they can withstand! Even if their numbers were several times greater than the Eagle Sauce's, they would have no chance of winning.
The rapid attack by the Eagle Sauce and the missile barrage from the aircraft carrier are enough to demonstrate this.
It was a complete one-sided crushing defeat! One man against a thousand!
He had previously witnessed the spectacular sight of Eagle Sauce aircraft carriers sailing when he observed Itō Hidetaka's challenge Instance.
He was immediately awestruck.
At this moment, the eleven aircraft carriers before us are even larger, more exquisite, and more magnificent than they were back then.
Each aircraft carrier was much larger than it had appeared when I observed the battle.
Only now did he realize that the aircraft carriers from the previous Instance had been completely abandoned.
In this Instance, Lin Ye upgraded his entire aircraft carrier!
At this moment, the eleven aircraft carriers no longer had complex steam systems, and their decks could accommodate more aircraft. The devastating Eagle Sauce warplanes that had just fought all took off from these carriers.
Most terrifyingly, these aircraft carriers can reach speeds of up to 100 knots. This means that these behemoths are faster than any of the Challengers' warships!
It can be said that it has made up for almost all the shortcomings of aircraft carriers.
With firepower and mobility suppression, these eleven aircraft carriers alone could utterly annihilate Yamamoto Sanjūhachi's fleet.
Moreover, this fleet is not just these 11 aircraft carriers, but also countless cruisers and submarines, each of which is far Level to the Challengers ships.
Any one of his units would be a force that Yamamoto Sanjūhachi's navy would be wary of.
Looking at the imposing fleet in the distance, Yamamoto Sanjūhachi finally understood why this fleet was named the "Nation-Destroying Fleet."
There's no need for any other so-called Air Force or Army; this single fleet is enough to crush the Eastern Ocean Islands and destroy the nation.
Yamamoto Sanjūhachi is now completely despondent and has no idea what to do next.
At that moment, an immense amount of energy erupted from the 11 aircraft carriers.
In an instant, countless missiles launched into the sky, soaring straight into the heavens.
These missiles pierced the night sky like bursting fireworks, completely tearing apart the dark curtain.
All that remained before Yamamoto Sanjūhachi's eyes was a deathly pale light.
A roaring sound rang in his ears, and he felt his skin slowly evaporating in the firelight.
Everything around them became blurry, leaving only the deafening explosions and dazzling flashes of light.
For him, all of this felt more like a relief.
The notification sound from the Firmament rang in my ears.
[Firmament Notification: Since you have been killed in battle, your Instance quest has failed. You will now be temporarily confined to the Instance space...]
As the final barrage of artillery fire from the Nation-Destroying Fleet ensues, the last remaining ships of the Challengers faction will be brutally destroyed in the raging flames.
In less than five minutes, 40,000 warplanes and 30,000 warships were all silenced in the cold sea outside Pearl Harbor.
Seeing this, everyone watching was filled with shock and horror.
Whether out of fear or excitement, the comments section became much more frenzied.
[My God... so this is what Nation-Destroying Fleet truly means!]
I swear, I've never seen anything like this in any Instance!
Just how much military force did Lin Ye deploy in the Instance?! Could a single fleet really achieve this?!
That's outrageous! Absolutely outrageous!
Did you all see that? Yamamoto Sanjūhachi and Tominaga, with such a massive fighting force, were instantly annihilated! Instantly annihilated!
With just this one fleet, I think they could easily handle any Instance on Azure Star!
Meanwhile, Imperial Garden Pavilion of Pines on the Eastern Ocean Island.
The Emperor had lost his first-person perspective of the Pearl Harbor attack; all that remained on the Light Screen before him was a jumble of pixels.
The commander in the Firmament can assign any Challengers's first-person perspective to be viewed on the virtual Light Screen of the Command Console.
However, the prerequisite is that the Challengers broadcasting from a first-person perspective must survive in the Instance to gain view.
The Emperor has now lost all view of Pearl Harbor means that no Challengers survived at Pearl Harbor.
All naval and Air Force forces were annihilated!
On the Light Screen in front of them, the number of Instance Challengers was rapidly decreasing.
In less than five minutes, the number of Challengers had dropped to less than 500,000!
The initial pool of one million Challengers has dwindled to less than half!
And all the statistics on the number of warships and aircraft have now vanished, all reset to zero.
"Not a single one left?"
How is that possible?
"How is this possible!"
The teacup in the Emperor's hand slipped and fell to the ground.
He stumbled and sat down in the chair.
His forehead was now covered in sweat, and his breathing had become extremely rapid.
He tried to hold it in, but he still couldn't stop trembling violently.
Only now did he realize what they were facing in this Instance.
Even though the Emperor wasn't present, he could still feel the suffocating pressure from the scene of the Nation-Destroying Fleet's rampage.
Even if the person in command wasn't Yamamoto Sanjūhachi, but him, the outcome wouldn't change.
With the current technological capabilities of the Dahe Settlement, let alone a million people, even if all the Challengers with naval technology came in, they wouldn't be able to stop the Nation-Destroying Fleet.
Although there are still 500,000 Challengers left, their chances of winning are slim.
All the initial ambitions have now vanished into thin air.
All of the Emperor's winning strategies were shattered by the "Nation-Destroying Fleet".
After the Shogun's special forces were wiped out, it can be said that naval and Air Force power are the Challengers Faction's greatest assets.
And frankly, the Emperor felt he had done the best he could in this attack on Pearl Harbor. The Air Force and navy cooperated effectively, and they even gained the upper hand by setting up their positions in advance...
As a result, not one is left; they have all been wiped out.
Sacrifices are not a big deal. If his fleet and fighter jets can take down even 10% of Eagle Sauce US military's forces, he can still try to make some progress.
They thought that perhaps they could fight to the death.
It could even be said that further action could be taken, and a fight could be waged against the Eagle Sauce.
But the reality is, they were completely overwhelmed and had absolutely no chance to fight back.
How are we supposed to fight like this?!
