Chapter 367
Sweat beaded on Upton's forehead without him noticing, slowly trickling down his forehead, then across his cheek and onto the deck.
At that moment, the voices of Pacific Fleet officers and soldiers came through the headset.
"Report, Commander Upton, what should we do now?"
Hearing his subordinate's words, Upton sighed inwardly.
Then he spoke.
"We will evacuate from here and head to safe Sea Domain belonging to other 'Union Nations' countries."
"After regrouping all resources, continue the counterattack and eliminate the evil vassal states of the 'League'!"
"Yes!"
After saying that, Upton stood on the deck and looked back at the Tokyo Bay coastline, which was now barely visible, and clenched his fists.
Upton firmly believed in the justice in his heart, which was also the justice of his country!
He firmly believed in the justice of his country.
Now, the evil forces before him have created this war, and he will never allow such enemies to continue living in this world!
But just then...
"—!"
Upton's expression suddenly changed as he looked towards Tokyo Bay.
At that moment, a dangerous warning echoed deep within his heart.
It was warning him... no, it was urging him on.
Get away from here!
Get away from here!
Get away from here!
He immediately shouted loudly into his headset.
"Everyone, get out of here immediately!"
But the moment Upton finished speaking, the scene before him filled him with despair.
Similarly, in the footage transmitted by reconnaissance satellites from numerous countries, many high-ranking leaders were also watching this scene unfold.
In the azure sky, the warm sun shines on the sea, creating beautiful, dazzling waves.
But...
"Choke----!"
Before the Pacific Fleet, the azure sky looked as if it had been cleaved in two.
The sword mark tore through the azure sky, revealing a dark, empty, and void space within.
Looking at the void-like space revealed by the sword cut, Upton felt his life gradually dissipating. He then slowly lowered his head to look at his body, his mouth slightly open with difficulty.
He saw a very obvious slash mark on his body.
The slash pierced through his body, but it did not draw blood.
Then, the sword mark slowly cracked open.
On his body, a space marked with sword marks appeared, just like the sky above.
Similarly, it wasn't just him.
Even his Device ship, the Enterprise, appeared as if its hull had been severed, with a sword-shaped space visible in the middle.
The same applies to every officer, soldier, and ship in the entire Pacific Fleet.
Standing still, Luo Mio looked at the Pacific Fleet and indifferently sheathed the Raven Blade in its dark gold sheath.
And at the very moment Luo Mio sheathed her sword.
At the very center of the Sword Scar Space, a streak of aurora light appeared.
The aurora borealis stretched out in an instant, like the rays of light during an explosion.
At the same time, the two ends of the sword-marked space seemed to be being pulled apart.
The Sword Aura light flashed instantly.
And after the light flashed, when people looked at it again...
There is no longer Pacific Fleet in the world!
"The Alliance"—the demon "White Whale" Douglas Upton —is dead!
This scene was recorded in the afterword.
This is a move that many Space Psychic and Space Sorcerer aspire to and attempt.
— "Void Slash"!
Chapter Nine: Don't anyone stop me
Looking at the Pacific Fleet being swallowed by the sword marks, Luo Mio also let out a soft breath.
Then the dark red Herrscher eyes faded, revealing their original azure color.
At the same time, the Herrscher's robe on his body transformed into dark red light particles and slowly dissipated.
Luo Mio lowered her head slightly, looking at her palm.
Then she raised her eyes to look at the distant Sea Domain, feeling the tremor in Luo Mio's soul from a certain part of the Sea Domain.
It was as if they were welcoming Luo Mio's return.
Similarly, the dormant "destruction" also began to awaken gradually amidst the excitement of this cheer.
After lowering her hands, Luo Mio also turned her head and looked at Touka and Shinguji Kuroko, who were standing on the coastline.
Then a happy smile appeared on his lips.
Luo Mio took a step and instantly her figure flashed.
——
Standing on the shore, Touka looked at Luo Mio, who was located in the very center of the battlefield. As a lightning mage, she clearly sensed the changes in Luo Mio.
The previously dominant and oppressive atmosphere is gradually fading away.
When Touka looked again, Luo Mio's figure had already disappeared from the sea.
Just as Touka was wondering.
"Sister."
Luo Mio's voice came from behind Touka.
Upon hearing the sound, Touka quickly turned around.
Shinguji Kuroko, standing to the side, also showed a look of surprise in her eyes.
Even she didn't immediately notice Luo Mio's presence behind her.
When they looked over, they saw that Luo Mio's Black Feather Kite appearance had disappeared. Apart from the different clothes he was wearing, Luo Mio's white hair and blue eyes were exactly the same as before he disappeared.
Even his height hasn't changed at all.
Luo Mio looked at Touka with her eyes wide open, then revealed a very happy smile.
Just as Luo Mio was about to say hello.
Touka had already taken a step and arrived in front of Luo Mio the blink of an eye, embracing her.
Feeling the slight tremor in Touka's body, Luo Mio's inner tension, which had been unconsciously taut, slowly eased.
Luo Mio whispered in Touka's ear.
"I'm back."
Upon hearing Luo Mio's words, Touka gave a soft "hmm".
Then, as she released Luo Mio, Touka Touka's eyes were slightly moist, but her smile was enough to prove that she was very happy.
Welcome back.
Luo Mio smiled gently at Touka, then raised her eyes to look at Shinguji Kuroko behind Touka.
"Long time no see, Aunt Kuro."
Seeing Luo Mio's smile, Shinguji Kuroko's eyes also revealed a hint of a smile.
As one of Luo Mio's guardians, she had watched Luo Mio grow up. As an elder, she showed a very gratified smile after seeing the child return home safely.
"It's good that you're back."
And at this time.
"Brother Miohua!"
In the distant ruins of the battlefield, a very small figure ran towards them, excitedly calling out Luo Mio's name.
It was Shinguji Naru, who should have been taking refuge in the air-raid shelter, while Shinguji Takumi, who was behind him, was protecting Naru all the way.
"Slow down, chirp! This is dangerous."
Ming didn't care about anything else at the moment, and quickly ran to Luo Mio and hugged him.
Shinguji Kuroko, standing to the side, also spoke to Naruto with a hint of anger.
"Hey! It's dangerous here. Why don't you stay in your room?"
Ke Ming ignored all of that Shinguji Kuroko, making a face as he spoke.
"So what? I have Brother Miohua to protect me!"
Upon hearing Ming's words, Luo Mio also showed an expression that was both funny and exasperated.
Within the Consciousness Space, the Book of Cang Xuan, witnessing this scene, couldn't help but stroke his chin in deep thought.
"I say, did you have a 'kid's charm' that makes you adored by children from the very beginning?"
"I don't know either."
After listening to Book of Cang Xuan, Luo Mio patted Ming's head.
Then Luo Mio raised her eyes and looked at Shinguji Takumi.
"It's been a long time, Uncle Takumi."
Shinguji Takumi also gave a gentle smile.
At this time.
"Check the situation of the defensive line in case of a second wave of attack from the M army!"
Amidst the ruins of the defensive line, Kurogane Gen's voice rang out.
When everyone looked over, they saw Kurogane Gen leading a group of soldiers, directing operations in the ruins.
Then, Kurogane Gen placed his hand on the asphalt road beneath his feet and activated his Blade Dance Technique.
"Iron-Blooded Alchemy!"
In a short while, under Kurogane Gen's control, a huge building was erected from the houses and rubble in the ruins.
"Contact medical personnel and transfer all the wounded to this building."
"At the same time, notify other uninjured soldiers to speed up the clearing of these ruins and rebuild the defensive line."
After all the orders were given, Kurogane Gen looked at Luo Mio, Touka, and their group.
Upon seeing Luo Mio, Kurogane Gen nodded slightly in acknowledgment.
Shinguji Kuroko, who was standing to the side, also spoke up.
"Thank you for your hard work, sir."
Kurogane Gen shook his head, his face remaining as expressionless as steel.
"You've worked so hard, Shinguji."
