Research vessel.
After dealing with Gu Jie, Yunyi took Shen Yi and Mayumi Saegusa back to their home in Tokyo Japan.
Although there were people assigned by the Ten Master Ancestors to monitor them, the three of them returned silently through the " Gate of Space " without alerting anyone.
After Shen Yi washed off the bloodstains, changed her clothes, and came downstairs, Mayumi Saegusa also came down.
After the two women were seated, Yunyi finally spoke, "Mom, why did you and Mayumi risk flying to Japan? You were just lucky this time, not at the epicenter of the explosion. If you had been closer..."
Yunyi didn't continue. He knew very well the power of Tatsuya Shiba's " Material Burst." If the plane Shen Yi and the others were on had traveled a few more kilometers, he probably wouldn't have even found the wreckage!
Seeing the serious expression on Yunyi's face, Shen Yi felt a little guilty this time. She picked up the water glass in front of her, took a sip, and replied, "I was reckless this time, there won't be a next time."
Hearing Shen Yi's words, Yunyi simply sighed softly. What else could he do? Was he supposed to imprison his own mother?
Seeing the atmosphere between the two becoming somewhat awkward, Mayumi Saegusa forced herself to interject, " Yunyi-kun, can you tell us about the current situation in Japan? My and Sister Yi's terminals were damaged in the accident, and we don't know much about what happened afterward."
Yunyi glanced at Mayumi Saegusa, but showed no displeasure at her attempt to change the subject.
" Tatsuya Shiba used Strategic-Class Magic to annihilate the US forward fleet, completely cutting off the retreat of the US landing forces. I don't know if this was the Ten Master Ancestors's strategy; perhaps they wanted to trap the enemy. However, playing the Tatsuya Shiba card too early might make the US counterattack quite terrifying."
Yunyi's viewpoint made Shen Yi and Mayumi Saegusa ponder deeply. Indeed, in such a war, the side that strikes first always finds itself at a disadvantage. Of course, as for Tatsuya Shiba, there are few in the entire world who can rival him in terms of Strategic-Class Magic. After all, his " Material Burst " is truly exceptional. Another person with similar magic is Lina's Strategic-Class Magic " Heavy Metal Burst." However, Lina's Strategic-Class Magic is far less destructive than Tatsuya Shiba's.
Of course, if Lina's magical power were to increase further, and she were able to disintegrate Decomposition the entire metal structure of Tokyo Tower in one go, then destroying the entire Tokyo would be no problem.
"Do you think the US military will launch a second wave of attacks?" Shen Yi asked, frowning.
Before the war broke out, they had analyzed the development of the situation. But judging from Yunyi's current words, it seems that the US military did not put all its eggs in one basket in the first offensive?
Yunyi nodded. "According to intelligence, at least two-thirds of the fleet at the US military base has been deployed. While the fleet that launched the attack earlier was large in scale, it was less than half the number mentioned in the intelligence. If I'm not mistaken, what was annihilated earlier was only the US vanguard. I think they probably wanted to test the combat effectiveness of the ' Parasite Soldier,' so they didn't commit their entire fleet and kept some reserves."
"Judging from the current situation, the US landing forces should launch a counterattack after dark. If this counterattack can cause enough chaos for the Japan military, and the reserve fleet can then launch a long-range strike, Japan's losses tonight will likely be very heavy."
"Furthermore, according to intelligence, the Strategic-Class Magic responsible for guarding the US military base hasn't been seen for a long time. I think this person is very likely also in the fleet. If that's the case, the US military will have Strategic-Class Magic on standby. The Strategic-Class Magic ' Leviathan ' is also a magic capable of causing great turmoil on the sea. If things develop this way, whether Tokyo can survive tonight is an unknown."
"Fortunately, I managed to take Lina with me when we left. Otherwise, if she had joined the war, Japan would have faced a barrage of attacks from two Strategic-Class Magic. Even if Tatsuya Shiba could handle one, he would have been worn down by this relentless Strategic-Class Magic offensive. After all, Miyuki Shiba is still a step behind in terms of Strategic-Class Magic."
After listening to Yunyi's analysis, Shen Yi nodded. Although she didn't think that Japan could fall a city overnight with its strength, if the US launched a large-scale attack, Japan's current defensive capabilities would probably not fare well. After all, Japan's fleet had already suffered heavy losses in the southwest. It would be too difficult for a single Strategic-Class Magic to reverse the course of the war.
"So, Yunyi-kun, what are you planning to do next?" Mayumi Saegusa asked.
She was also worried about the situation in Japan. But she understood that this was war, and she couldn't control it alone.
"Me? I'm waiting to see what the US military does. If they really launch a counterattack tonight, then the support troops sent to the southeast will definitely be redeployed. At that time, the Great Asian Alliance fleet will head to the waters off Kyoto."
Yunyi didn't go into details about the next steps. It wasn't because he didn't trust Mayumi Saegusa, but because he hadn't decided what to do next either. However, before that, there was one more thing he needed to do.
Seemingly sensing Yunyi's thoughts, Shen Yi said, "Go do what you want to do. Mayumi and I will wait for you here. If you're worried, you can also take us back to the research ship first."
Hearing Shen Yi's words, Yunyi thought for a moment and then stood up, "I'll take you back first. Tokyo won't be peaceful from now on. I'm not comfortable leaving you here."
Watching Yunyi write the incantation for the " Gate of Transfer," Mayumi Saegusa considered staying. However, the scene of the " Material Burst " she witnessed on the plane was too shocking, and thinking of this, she gave up the idea of staying. As for other things, those were beyond her control.
After Shen Yi and Mayumi Saegusa disappeared through the " Gate of Transfer " magic circle, Yunyi left home. After several short-range teleportation spells, he appeared on a high-rise building in Tokyo. At that moment, Tatsuya Shiba and Miyuki Shiba were waiting for him on the rooftop.
"Tatsuya Tsukasa!"
"It seems I was right. The previous ' Material Burst ' caused trouble." Tatsuya Shiba looked up at Yunyi floating in the air and calmly expressed his guess.
