Sea Monsters Attack the Fleet!

"A weapon capable of high-speed continuous fire like a heavy machine gun, yet the size of a rifle, issued for individual use; a new type of hand grenade smaller than a wooden-handled grenade; and a two-meter-tall soldier suspected of being catalyzed by a drug."

The speaker was Walpole, the Prime Minister of the Great John Bull Empire, a fat man with a suit and tie, a serious expression, and light blond curly hair.

The place he was in was the conference room of the Defense Intelligence Agency, and sitting at the conference table in front of him were thirteen military generals, including the director of the agency.

What are your thoughts on this?

Walpole first put down the intelligence documents in his hand, glanced at everyone, and then asked in a deep voice.

A staff General Staff of National Defense immediately suggested, "If this is true, then I recommend that a fleet be dispatched immediately, and that it be done as quickly as possible, arriving in Nippon before any other country!"

"Indeed, their so-called declaration of war against the world is not just directed at us; the Hans Tiger, Bald Eagle Bear., and the Rooster. must already know about it as well."

The intelligence chief nodded in agreement.

"In that case, let's form a blue-water fleet consisting of five dreadnoughts, ten pre-dreadnoughts, and fifty-two destroyers and cruisers, with Admiral Norris the commander!"

The current John Bull Empire is still at its historical peak.

The colonies occupied one-fifth of the world's land territory, with a population of 45 million, a total army and navy strength of 530,000, 62 battleships, more than 200 cruisers and destroyers, and more than 80 submarines!

The reason Prime Minister Walpole assembled such a large fleet was not primarily out of fear of Nippon, but rather to guard against encounters with the naval fleets of other powerful nations.

In order to acquire those new weapons, the major naval fleets are likely to engage in an unprecedented naval battle around Nippon.

Although I've heard there are a lot of those weapons, enough to share, it's always better to have them all to yourself if you can have them all!

Really.

Just as they expected, virtually every country with a navy sent fleets of varying sizes to Nippon.

However, in this era, most of the powerful nations were located on the Europa Continent and across the Pacific Ocean. It would take their fleets at least twenty days to reach Nippon.

This gave hope to several neighboring countries.

For example, there's the Great Stick Country across the sea. Stick Country is indeed a large country in this world. Not only does it own the entire peninsula, but it also extends quite far northward.

For example, there's the Mengma Empire, which occupies most of the region, the White Elephant Empire next door, and various monkey kingdoms in Southeast Asia.

These countries actually have very weak naval forces, consisting of only a few second-hand ships purchased from European and American countries.

Even the Mengma Empire was the same; its main military strength was concentrated in the Army, especially cavalry and artillery, while its coastal defense relied mainly on a large number of Coastal Defense Guns.

Therefore, they planned to send their Army troops to Nippon from another direction while the fleets of the Great Stick Country and Nippon were engaged in battle.

Anyway, the warships of that Great Stick Country wouldn't dare to fire on them easily.

East Blue.

This ocean, sandwiched between Great Stick Country and Nippon, covers an area of 978,000 square kilometers.

At this moment, a small fleet consisting of three destroyers and five torpedo boats is sailing at full speed toward Honshu Island.

They sailed against the wind and waves with great momentum, and every Korean Navy on the deck had a proud expression on their face.

In this sea area, at this time, they are the strongest fleet!

They will also be the first army to land on Nippon soil!

Therefore, rounding up, we are now the world's number one naval fleet!

"General Kim Won-hoon, the Japanese navy is far superior to ours in both size and tonnage. I think we should be cautious and wait for the fleets of other countries to arrive."

Inside the flagship's bridge, a South Korean lieutenant colonel in a white officer's uniform looked worriedly at the sea ahead. He really didn't think his own fleet could defeat the Nippon fleet on its own.

"Adjutant Park, you're overthinking it. A revolutionary military Nippon is currently taking place in Japan, and they simply can't muster a fleet. This is a once-in-a-century opportunity!"

"If we seize Maizuru Naval Port first, we can easily take all the warships inside. Compared to that, those so-called new firearms and grenades are nothing!"

General Kim Won-hoon, holding the rank of Kim Won-hoon Vice Admiral, said confidently.

However, 'seumida' is a term of respect in Korean, so he didn't use it in his speech.

"I see. Your wisdom is truly astonishing. I was presumptuous and shouldn't have said anything out of turn." Adjutant Park lowered his head in shame.

"Haha, you're still young, you'll have plenty of time in the future."

Suddenly, just as General Kim Won-hoon was laughing with satisfaction and reaching out to pat the other man on the shoulder in encouragement, towering Water Hashira shot into the sky around the warships.

The commotion and the scene of cannonballs hitting the sea were almost identical, which greatly alarmed the South Korean marines on the warship.

"Enemy attack!"

"Where are the enemy ships? Where are they firing from?"

Exclamations rose and fell, and everyone tensed up, gripping their rifles and scanning the distant sea, trying to spot some growing dark spots.

But those on deck didn't see anything for a moment.

The soldiers standing on the watchtower stared in disbelief as the monsters pounced on them!

It turned out that as the Water Hashira was pulled back into the sea by gravity, those terrifying figures appeared in mid-air.

[Bang----]

A long, thick, pale blue Longarms with fins growing from its fingers smashed a Korean soldier's head with a powerful burst of energy.

Just like a watermelon, a large amount of blood splattered out.

"Hahaha, kill all these Otherworld ants!"

"They're so brittle! These Otherworld beings' bodies are like Bubble Coating; they burst before you even exert any force!"

"Stop talking nonsense, hurry up and kill them, but be careful not to damage this ship, or you'll face the consequences!"

"No way, it's a warship made of steel, it's not that easy to break."

What appeared to be a group of Fish-Man Race dressed in naval uniforms were landing heavily from the sky onto the deck of the warship, slaughtering the terrified Korean Navy there like rabbits.

"Ahhh, a monster!"

"My God, what are these things?!"

Although they were all unarmed, their absolute dominance in speed and strength made the scene exceptionally cruel and bloody from the very beginning.

Especially the Fish-Man's tall stature, terrifying appearance, and mouthful of fangs, they really look like legendary sea monsters!

This dealt a heavy blow to the morale of the Korean Navy!

Some of the bolder ones pulled the trigger at the Fish-Man, but either their hands trembled and they missed, or the bullets were dodged. Even when they did hit, the bullets fell limply to the ground, unable to even pierce the skin.

This isn't because these Fish-Man have thick skin, but because they've all mastered the 'Tekkai' technique from the Rokushiki!

Compared to the Fish-Man on Fish-Man Island.

As a member of the Marine Headquarters Fish-Man Special Forces, the biggest advantage is that they can be exposed to these Physical Arts, and 'Tekkai' is the easiest Isshiki for them to master.
