Boom!

The violent explosion jolted the Island Nation Coastal Defense Force awake.

Alarm bells rang through the Coastal Defense Force barracks. Countless Island Nation soldiers clad only in loincloths charged madly from their barracks and flooded into their positions, preparing to attack the enemy.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The Battleships of the German Expeditionary Fleet, slowly passing through Uraga Channel, began a fierce bombardment. Shell after shell screamed through the air and smashed into the Island Nation Coastal Defense Force's positions.

Boom!

A shell landed among Island Nation Coastal Defense Force troops who had not yet made it into the coastal gun emplacements. A violent explosion erupted, tearing countless Island Nation soldiers to pieces on the spot.

"Order every coastal gun emplacement to open fire immediately!" the Coastal Defense Force Commander ordered, his eyes red.

Although the attacking German Expeditionary Fleet was immensely powerful, and those warships towering like small mountains were simply not something the Coastal Defense Force could handle, he had to stop the German fleet from entering Tokyo Bay at all costs. Otherwise, the consequences would be dire. If the Germans did in Tokyo what they had done in other major cities, the Island Nation would truly be finished. When that time came, he, the Commander of the Coastal Defense Force, would probably have no choice but to commit seppuku.

"Report to Tokyo immediately. The German fleet is forcing its way through Uraga Channel. Our strength is limited, and it will be difficult for us to stop them! Request that the Navy dispatch warships to assist us. Also, ask Tokyo to make preparations as soon as possible!" the Coastal Defense Force Commander continued.

Clearly, once they passed through Uraga Channel, Tokyo would be within arm's reach. At the German fleet's speed, they could reach Tokyo in an hour.
