An explosion at an underwater mine triggered a tectonic shift, resulting in an underwater earthquake. However, this earthquake was relatively small and wouldn't have caused significant damage on its own. But the mine was connected to a dormant underwater volcano! The combined effects of the explosion and the earthquake awakened the volcano, causing it to erupt immediately.
The underwater volcanic eruption caused the seismic index, which was originally very low, to rise sharply! The triple impact of the volcanic eruption, the mineral vein explosion, and the earthquake immediately created waves tens of meters high on the sea surface, rushing towards the Ogasawara Islands!
Although everything that happened on the seabed was immediately captured by satellites dedicated to weather monitoring, this sudden event gave no one time to react. Moreover, the Ogasawara Islands, which were closest to the incident site, were already facing a tsunami! Even if they had managed to issue a notification, there wouldn't have been enough time to evacuate!
While Yunyi and the others were still on the beach, discussing how wasteful it was for Erika Chiba to use the Chiba Family's swordsmanship and magic to cut a watermelon, they were suddenly startled by the ground shaking!
Yunyi and Tatsuya Shiba reacted the fastest, and the two immediately rushed towards Mayumi Saegusa and Miyuki Shiba.
As he rushed toward Mayumi Saegusa, Yunyi tucked Izumi Saegusa and Kasumi Saegusa, who had already fallen on the beach, into his arms. When he reached Mayumi Saegusa, he immediately shoved Kasumi Saegusa into her arms and then flew directly into the air.
The look of panic on Mayumi Saegusa's face hadn't faded before she was already airborne. She only breathed a sigh of relief after the ascent stopped.
" Yunyi-kun, what's going on? Was there an earthquake?"
Yunyi gently shook his head and said, "I don't know, but it must have been an earthquake. Something like an undersea earthquake."
Only then did Yunyi realize that the source of his earlier sense of crisis was not caused by humans, but by natural disasters caused by changes in nature!
Not far from them, Tatsuya Shiba, carrying Miyuki Shiba, also flew up. He and Yunyi exchanged a glance, both seeing a hint of seriousness in each other's eyes.
" Yunyi-kun, what's wrong with you?" Mayumi Saegusa had just breathed a sigh of relief, quickly noticed the seriousness in Yunyi's eyes and asked with a hint of doubt.
"If it really is an underwater earthquake, then what will happen next, Mayumi, don't you know?" Yunyi asked back.
Mayumi Saegusa pondered for a moment, then her face turned somewhat pale.
"Hey... tsunami?"
"That's right! If the earthquake is smaller, the resulting tsunami won't be too dangerous! But if the earthquake is larger and causes a huge tsunami, not only will the Ogasawara Islands below be in trouble, but the mainland will probably be in a bad situation too!" Yunyi took the opportunity to explain the dangers of a tsunami.
Of course, the "mainland" he's referring to isn't Japan itself, but rather the coastal region of the Great Asian Alliance!
I don't know how much time passed, maybe ten minutes, or even longer, but the earthquake seemed to have passed, and the surrounding sea gradually began to calm down.
Yunyi landed back on the beach with Mayumi Saegusa and the twins. He glanced at the pale faces of Leonhart and the others, pursed his lips, and said, "Don't just stand there, pack up and get out of here! I reckon a tsunami is likely coming soon. Staying here is too dangerous."
On the other side, Tatsuya Shiba had just landed, also agreed with Yunyi's suggestion. He even wanted to use Yunyi's Spatial Magic to evacuate directly, even if it was just to send Miyuki away.
But at that moment, Mikihiko Yoshida, who had been watching the sea intently, showed a look of panic. Trembling, he pointed a finger at the water and cried out, "Everyone, what... what is that!?"
Everyone looked in the direction he was pointing, and there rose a column of smoke from the sea!
Seeing this, Yunyi's face darkened. The current situation was probably much more serious than he had anticipated. He was considering whether to contact Old Liu directly and have him direct the people at the naval port to begin preparing for the crisis brought by the tsunami.
But at that moment, he suddenly noticed something unusual.
"Hey Tatsuya! Use your eyes to look at the sea in that direction, quick!" Yunyi shouted.
Tatsuya Shiba was stunned for a moment, but the next moment he activated his eye and looked over at the source.
What he saw completely shattered his poker face!
"A tsunami! It looks about thirty meters high!" Tatsuya Shiba closed his eyes and recounted what he had just seen.
Hearing him say that, everyone panicked.
Yunyi frowned. Although the tsunami might change as it travels, given the distance between Ogasawara and the mainland, such a large tsunami could not possibly subside.
Moreover, even if Old Liu's side starts evacuation and prevention now, it may not be enough time to deal with a tsunami of this scale. Putting aside the casualties, if too much military equipment is lost as a result, it will be an opportunity for hostile countries to take advantage of the situation.
"Damn it! Why do I always run into these unexpected things!"
Just as everyone was pondering whether they should escape as soon as possible, Yunyi suddenly swore.
" Yunyi-kun?" Mayumi Saegusa cast a questioning look at him.
Yunyi reached out and embraced Mayumi Saegusa, pulling her into his arms, then rested his chin on her shoulder.
Sensing the unusual emotion emanating from Yunyi, Mayumi Saegusa didn't ask any further questions. She raised her hand to wrap around Yunyi's waist and whispered in his ear, "No matter what you do, I will support you. Even if you want to leave now, that's fine too."
Others might have been puzzled by her words, but Yunyi was not. He gently bit Mayumi Saegusa's earlobe, making the little fairy tremble slightly, before gently pushing her away.
"Wait for me here, I'll be right back."
After saying that, Yunyi flew into the air under everyone's watchful eyes.
"President, what's wrong with Yunyi?" Miyuki Shiba looked at Mayumi Saegusa with a puzzled expression.
Mayumi Saegusa did not answer Miyuki Shiba's question; her gaze remained fixed on the figure in the air.
