Chapter 801: How to Choose!
The God of the Void, Brimir.
These two seemed to be the biggest hidden dangers for the World Government's conquest of the Zero Magic World.
But Im would not stop the actions of those below him because of this.
After all, including himself, they always had to face some tricky and powerful opponents, unless they truly encountered a hopeless situation.
Only then would he consider whether to sacrifice a portion of the personnel, close the Star Gate, and temporarily avoid their sharpness.
However, there was a Matter that required a decision.
That was, if Mima Amatori and the others successfully opened the 'World Gate' in the Holy Land, it would allow the World Government to come into contact with another World, a Modern Technology World.
At that time, which World should they conquer first, the Modern World or the Ninja World?
Carrying such thoughts, Im walked out of the Study Room and looked out the Sunlight-drenched window with a deep Gaze.
Outside, the barren silver-grey Earth had transformed into vast Lawns covered in flowers, including Exotic Flowers and Plants from Otherworlds such as Blue Spider Lilies, Wisteria Trees, and Black Gold Bamboo.
Historia had also sent over a few young Thousand Year Dragons. Their green Feathers truly complemented the surrounding Environment.
Honestly, it had to be said.
With this Renovation, it indeed looked much more comfortable.
However, the most pleasing Scenery was naturally Historia and Esdeath, the two stunning Heavenly Empresses wearing Heavenly Phoenix Hundred Birds Skirts.
Their appearance, figures, and temperament completely overshadowed Mikasa, Akame, and the others around them.
"Lord Im, all the Supplies and personnel transfers required for Noah's Ark are Ready. When shall we depart for the Imperial Arms World?"
At this moment, Stussy walked into the room and asked softly, drawing Im's Gaze to herself.
"Then let's go in two days. Let them play here for two days, and then head to the skies above the Heavenly Gate Holy Island in the Imperial Arms World. I heard the Construction there is quite good, let's go take a look."
"Yes, Lord Im."
Stussy carefully noted this down, then said, "Kukulkan has requested to find a Snake-Neck Tribe Women to procreate his offspring."
"Oh?"
A look of surprise appeared on Im's face.
'Lord of the Sky' Kukulkan was the great Serpent responsible for guarding the Golden Belfry. Not long ago, he ate a Human-Human Fruit bestowed by Im, gaining Human Wisdom and a body.
The Snake-Neck Tribe was a Minority Race on the World, characterized by their long, snake-like necks.
Their Talent was the ability to sense the heat emitted by nearby creatures using their slender Informants. Other than that, there was nothing particularly special about them.
"The Human-Human Fruit truly lives up to its reputation. This Kukulkan has actually started to have his own pursuits and Ambition."
Hearing Lord Im's exclamation, Stussy pursed her lips and smiled.
If Kukulkan merely wanted to find a Women to procreate, he wouldn't need to specifically request a Snake-Neck Tribe Women.
But he did.
That indicated he had something he wanted from the Snake-Neck Tribe.
Most likely, he wanted to recruit the Snake-Neck Tribe to become his Influence.
"Alright, having pursuits is a good thing. Agree to his request. Doesn't Charlotte Linlin have a Snake-Neck Tribe Daughter?"
Im decided to Support Kukulkan, as it was a good Matter.
"Are you referring to Lord BIG MOM's Snake Head Four Sisters? They seem to be less than thirty years old this year, which is quite suitable, and their Strength is not weak."
Stussy said after recalling the relevant Intelligence.
Im was momentarily stunned upon hearing this, as he was referring to Charlotte Amande, who had left the deepest impression on him. As for whether she had three other sisters or not, he didn't know.
"Then give Kukulkan three months leave and let him go to Totto Land Kingdom to choose for himself."
"If Charlotte Linlin agrees, it's fine for all four to come, but he can only choose one of them to live on the Ark with him."
"Before he returns, have him make a trip to the Snake-Neck Tribe's Kingdom as well. Allow him to select fifty Snake-Neck Tribe Warriors to bring back as his personal guards, to jointly Guard the Golden Belfry."
Stussy softly agreed.
Seeing that Lord Im had no further orders, she immediately left the Tree House to convey the Holy Edict to Kukulkan on Noah's Ark.
Meanwhile.
In the Zero Magic World.
After learning the Identity and location of the last Void User, Mima Amatori did not immediately share the Intelligence with Pope Victorio and the others.
Instead, she used a Den Den Mushi to notify Mekko, who was still in the Germania Kingdom, to find the Half-Elf Tribe Women named Tiffania and temporarily live with her.
Her Conquerors were handed over to Levi for Control, and Levi's Mission was to take two Conquerors and hide near the Edge of the Sahara Desert.
This was because Mima Amatori had received another Order from the Otherworld Strategy Committee.
That was, they were temporarily not to open the World Gate in the Holy Land.
Mima Amatori felt Doubt about this Order but wisely did not press for the reason.
Instead, she focused her Attention on the Plan to unify the other Nations on the Halkeginia Continent, with King Wales of the Albion Kingdom at the Core.
First, Queen Henrietta announced that the Tristain Kingdom would be formally incorporated into the Albion Kingdom. Then, King Joseph publicly announced that the Gallia Kingdom would be incorporated into the Albion Kingdom.
As for the King of the Germania Kingdom, he unfortunately died in the Laser Explosion caused by the Conquerors.
Therefore, they had to find a Royalty Member to first ascend as King, then announce the incorporation into the Albion Kingdom in the name of the King, and then lose the Identity of King again.
The entire process, with the Support of Romalia, could be said to be a legitimate and just action.
Finally, Pope Victorio also announced the abolition of the Holy Romalian Empire's national political system, joining the Albion Kingdom solely with the Brimir Religion as the main body, but retaining the Holy Order Knights.
Thus.
Officially, there was only one Human Nation in the entire Zero Magic World: the Albion Kingdom.
This naturally caused an Uproar throughout the Noble Class.
It should be known that the Halkeginia Continent did not only consist of these few Kingdoms; there were also numerous Duchies, Marquisates, and countless Noble Territories of the middle and lower strata.
They more or less had their own Private Armies, which combined represented a considerable armed force.
As for the Pope's Order.
One could only say that compared to their fundamental Interests, faith was insignificant. Conversely, the Citizens in Various Places were more devout towards the Brimir Religion.
Upon hearing that the Pope had acknowledged the Legitimacy of the Albion Kingdom and even given away his own Nation, they immediately began to get used to their new Identity.
Citizens of the Albion Kingdom!
Soon.
Within the territories of the former Gallia, Germania, and even Tristain, Noble Rebellions began to break out one after another.
It was essentially an amplified version of the previous 'Albion Civil War'.
Mima Amatori handed all these Matters over to King Wales, Joseph, who served as the Fleet Admiral of the Romalia Kingdom, and Pope Victorio to handle.
They were considered the three great figures of this Zero Magic World, and she believed they could resolve the Riots caused by a mob.
Moreover, even if problems arose.
She could also take action. If that still wasn't enough, the Albion Kingdom was also garrisoned by Admiral Kizaru's Air Fleet!
With such confidence.
Mima Amatori was confident that even if the 'Progenitor' Brimir were reborn, she could suppress him.
"Do you think it's possible to migrate most of the Humans to live in the Albion Kingdom? Later, when the World Government enters and takes over, they can also arrange for them to do some labor within their capabilities."
Mima Amatori found Mr. Shu and expressed her new idea.
"This..."
Mr. Shu was momentarily speechless. He felt that this would cause another major disturbance, and there would definitely be many people who were strongly resistant to leaving their Homeland.
But it seemed like this was saving them?
Thank you to Helmsman [garbled characters] for 20 Monthly Passes! Thank you for your Encouragement and Support!
Chapter 802: Star Sea Incident!
World.
Outside the Iron Door of Pangaea Castle in Holy Land Mary Geoise.
This area had been completely cordoned off by the Holy Land Garrison. Large numbers of Heavy Armored Knights, holding Red Tasseled Spears and wearing White Cloaks, stood guard on both sides of the Main Road.
A layer of precious Scarlet Carpet was laid out on the Grand Avenue, leading directly to the White Wall Steps in the distance. Above the steps was the Spaceship Deck floating in Mid-air.
Looking further up.
An Air Door nearly thirty meters high and twenty meters wide could be clearly seen in the High Altitude.
Two tall Golden Giants stood on either side inside the door, awaiting their Master's arrival.
A moment later.
Im, followed by Esdeath and Historia, and further behind, Mikasa, Akame, and others, slowly walked out of the Pangaea Castle Main Gate, stepping on the soft Red Carpet.
Although he was fully capable of Teleportation with everyone into Noah's Ark within the Door-Door Space, he felt that this form and Display were necessary.
Especially for the Women from Otherworlds behind him, it helped them more deeply internalize their current Identity and Status.
Of course.
Im himself quite enjoyed it.
Today was the day he would officially travel to the Imperial Arms World.
The Value of This World went without saying; it should be incorporated into the Scope of 'Star Fate' as soon as possible.
However, because of Ymir's Prophecy about the appearance of the Ninja World, he had hesitated for a time, wondering if he should wait until he had conquered the Ninja World before living there for three years.
But after several Considerations, he abandoned this idea.
Firstly, he didn't know at what Time the Star Gate would open. If it opened in a very strange place, whether they could win the Combat was an unknown.
Secondly, the Ninja World, being a Planet where the Otsutsuki Clan had planted a tree, was truly not a good place.
However, it would definitely be incorporated into 'Star Fate' in the Future.
Perhaps there would be an opportunity in the Future to scheme against some overly Strong Otsutsuki Powerhouses. While they were in the Ninja World, he could directly blow up the entire Planet!
Tsk tsk, although this was something that would only be done in a last resort Situation, just thinking about it was interesting!
"Lord Imu!!"
Just as Im arrived at the Ark Deck within the Door-Door Space aboard the Airship, Stussy suddenly appeared before him at an extremely fast Speed, her High Heels clicking.
"Hmm?"
Im was a little surprised. What had happened that made Stussy even use Shave?
Normally, she would walk over step by step, swaying her sexy slender waist and striding with her long legs clad in Black Threads, exuding an aura of Intellectuality, her beautiful Gaze alluring.
Thus, Esdeath and Historia also immediately showed surprised Expressions.
In their hearts, Stussy would definitely be their sister in the Future. They didn't believe Im could keep resisting and not take in this stunning Fairy.
"The Five Elders request an emergency meeting!"
Im's Gaze sharpened upon hearing Stussy's words.
Without further unnecessary talk, he instantly vanished without a trace, then sat back on the Empty Throne within Pangaea Castle.
He was very curious what major Matter could have happened to the World Government now?
"Greetings, Lord Imu!"
The Five Elders, who had been waiting below the three-tiered platform for a long time, immediately knelt in unison on the Red Carpet the moment Im's Figure appeared.
"Speak."
Im said coldly from his elevated position.
Saint Marcus Mars, who was in charge of multiple Domains such as Science, History, and Education, spoke first.
"Reporting to Lord Imu, the 'Ancient City Research Base' established by the Academy of Science on the Moon, using a Telescope specifically for observing the Star Sea, discovered a Spaceship suspected to belong to another Intelligent Civilization forty minutes ago, passing through our Galaxy at high Speed!"
This sentence was like a bombshell exploding in Im's ear. A look of Surprise immediately surfaced on his calm Expression.
Although he had long thought about encountering Aliens from this Star Sector.
After all, the Original Manga's Cover Story Arc clearly featured a Space Pirate Group, and the existence of the Star Map also proved that all Star Sectors were within one Star Sea.
Therefore, people or forces from different Star Sectors, as long as they had sufficient Technology or Means, were fully capable of operating across Star Sectors.
However, because nothing had happened for over five years, Im had once overlooked this issue.
Now, suddenly hearing that Aliens had been seen, and they were particularly close to the World, he truly felt a sense of being caught off guard.
Immediately after.
Saint Marcus Mars took out a Video Den Den Mushi from his arms and played the Screen Feed captured by the Telescope on the Moon.
Im watched intently.
What first came into view was the vast and boundless, brilliantly starlit deep space.
Then, a giant scarlet fireball and several Planets of different colors and sizes, all slowly floating around it.
This was the Planetary System where the World was located.
After about ten seconds, the Airship, roughly the size of a Table Tennis ball on the Virtual Screen, could be clearly seen rapidly passing 'near' the Sun.
It seemed to have completely ignored the World, showing no signs of slowing down.
It disappeared from the Screen within ten seconds.
But this was enough to make Im fall silent.
He wasn't sure if this Airship belonged to a Civilization from this Star Sector or one from another Star Sector, but he hoped it was the former.
After all, a Civilization capable of cross-Star Sector Voyage must possess extremely high technological levels.
"Lord Imu, we have previously overlooked the threat from the Universe. I suggest permanently stationing an Air Force Admiral and an Air Fleet on the Moon to guard against potential incoming Alien forces at any time!"
At this moment, Saint Jaygarcia Saturn, who was in charge of the Military Domain, proposed while holding the Shodai Kitetsu in his arms.
"In addition, we also need to develop our own Spaceships. At the very least, the Air Force's Fleet should be able to patrol within the Galaxy to prevent the Sea Star Mainland from being easily invaded!"
Saint Marcus Mars added immediately after, and the other three Five Elders also nodded in agreement.
"Permanently stationing an Air Force Admiral on the Moon..."
Im pondered. Wouldn't this be equivalent to long-term shelving an Admiral Level Combat Power?
Which Admiral would be willing?
"Alright, then let the Air Force Headquarters set the Rotation schedule. Each Air Force Admiral will need to be stationed on the Moon for one year periodically."
"Yes, Lord Imu!"
The Five Elders replied in unison.
"As for the development of Spaceships, have Vegapunk put more effort into it. Set this Matter as the highest Priority, and satisfy whatever is needed as much as possible."
Im had nothing more to say about this.
He would just hand it over to Vegapunk and the scientists at the Academy of Science.
"Yes, Lord Imu!"
At this moment, Saint Jaygarcia Saturn slightly raised his head and asked, "Lord Imu, could you inform us of the opening time of the next Star Gate?"
Im had already made a Decision regarding this.
"February 1st!"
The Five Elders below pondered for a moment. That was less than twenty days away. The Sea Ninja Village could start their Operation. They were the main force for gathering intelligence in the Ninja World this time.
For this purpose, Saint Shepherd Ju Peter had already required the Ninjas of the Sea Ninja Village to practice Hand Seals and get used to using Kunai in Combat.
Of course.
They couldn't use any Ninjutsu just by making Hand Seals, but this kind of Basic Knowledge about the Ninja World was still necessary to Understand.
Chapter 803: Prize Money Doubled!
Zero Magic World.
"Move everyone on the Continent here?"
Inside the Star Gate Base deep within the Valais Alps Mountain Range, Staff Officer Rodlin of the Otherworld Strategy Committee looked at Mima Amatori in front of him with surprise.
Based on his understanding of the latter, he didn't seem like someone with a kind Heart.
"It's mainly because the subsequent mining of Wind Stone requires a large amount of Laborer, and there are also people with Magic Talent among the Civilian, so they still have a certain Value to the World Government."
Mima Amatori calmly stated his Thought.
"Have you looked into roughly how many people there are? Can this Albion Sky Island accommodate them?" Staff Officer Rodlin asked.
"Not yet. Besides, we'll take as many as we can. If we can't fit them, we won't take them."
Mima Amatori's cold words made Staff Officer Rodlin pause for a moment, then he smiled freely, "I see..."
Not only did he not feel repulsed, but he rather appreciated Mima Amatori's Personality.
It was very much in line with the Mindset a Cipher Pol UL should possess.
"So, what are you planning to do?"
"First, spread the 'Windstone Catastrophe' to cause Panic among the Citizens. At the same time, have Wales and the others mobilize all the Magic Flying Ships."
Mima Amatori already had a Plan in mind.
"The migration will start from the former Capital Cities of various Nations. Then, send people to notify the people in other Cities to come over as quickly as possible, and announce that the Albion Kingdom has a limited capacity."
"Using Fear to make everyone voluntarily achieve your goal..."
Staff Officer Rodlin secretly sighed with emotion.
The Data on the other party mentioned that he had used a similar method to cause Panic throughout the Shogunate Fortress in the Kabaneri World and killed his General Father during the chaos.
"Then when do you want us to step in?"
Mima Amatori replied, "Once the major migration comes to an end, the World Government can take over the Albion Kingdom. How it's handled then will have nothing to do with me." After speaking, he thought to himself, "Wales, I can only help you this much. How things turn out will depend on your Fate..."
After all, he had promised the other party that he wouldn't harm his Nation.
Looking at the current Result, not only was it not harmed, but the Albion Kingdom became the only Nation in the World.
However, whether this Nation could be preserved would depend on the Decision of the World Government's Big Shots.
"Oh, right. Since the higher-ups have decided not to open the 'World Gate' for now, please have Admiral Kizaru Control the 'Holy Land' first and take the Elf Race away. Then there's the communication with the Winged Human Race..."
Mima Amatori had originally planned to incite a War between Human and the Elf Race.
But this Plan was made assuming the World Government's Troops hadn't entered. Now that Admiral Kizaru's Air Fleet had arrived, there was no need to waste Time.
As for the Elf Kingdom and such, just sweep them away!
"Okay, I will report your Thought." Staff Officer Rodlin smiled and nodded, then said, "Oh, right. CIPHER POL Headquarters wants to recall Uzui Jonin and Chelsea."
Mima Amatori asked curiously, "May I ask why?"
"Of course, it's not Confidential. It's just preparation for the Detection of the next Otherworld. After all, this Zero Magic World doesn't seem to have any major issues."
"I see..."
Mima Amatori nodded thoughtfully.
"But don't worry, your Merit in this Zero Magic World won't be forgotten, especially since your various Operation have indeed saved the World Government a lot of effort and Time."
Staff Officer Rodlin looked at Mima Amatori with considerable envy.
He had a premonition that the next time they met, the other party's Rank might already be higher than his own.
This was an Otherworlder!
In the eyes of many Sea Star People, Otherworlders were inferior in all aspects, even if they used Cell Enhancement Serum to compensate for Physical Ability.
They would still look down on them.
After all, it was the World that conquered their World.
However, Staff Officer Rodlin's Racial Discrimination Thought was not that severe.
The next day.
Around ten o'clock in the morning, a small Detachment Fleet consisting of one Aerospace Carrier, two Escort Ship, and two Transport Ship, forming a Regiment-Scale force, finally flew out over the Valais Alps Mountain Range.
"Oh, finally getting to see the Elf Race, huh? How exciting~"
Borsalino sat in the swivel chair in the Commander's Office, looking at the Sky Scenery constantly sweeping past the window and grinned.
"Indeed."
Rear Admiral Lan sat on the Sofa in front of the Office Desk and replied in agreement, "Even in the Imperial Arms World where I come from, there are Legend of the Elf Race."
"However, the Elf Race in this Zero Magic World is not like what is described in the Legend, living in lush green Forest, but in the Desert. This is quite surprising."
"And compared to the Elf Race, I am more concerned about those Winged Human Race. They are born with Influence that allow them to fly and are said to be able to use Ancestral Magic. They would be an excellent Air Force Personnel Source."
Borsalino withdrew his Gaze, put a Cigarette in his mouth, lit it with his glowing fingertip, and after the Smoke filled his mouth and nose, he casually exhaled a Smoke ring.
"I heard that the Technology and Magic of this so-called Elf Race are much Stronger than the Human Nations in this World. I Hope there won't be any troublesome Situation."
"Then why didn't you bring the entire Air Fleet?" Rear Admiral Lan asked in Doubt.
"Think about it,"
Borsalino said, holding the Cigarette between his fingers, "If a Situation arises that even I cannot handle, then bringing any number of Aerospace Carrier would be useless, right?"
Rear Admiral Lan nodded thoughtfully.
Indeed, this would minimize their own losses as much as possible and make it easier for Admiral Kizaru and himself to withdraw.
"Moreover, the main Opponent we came to this World for isn't some Elf Race, but that 'Progenitor' Brimir and another Technology World."
Borsalino sighed after speaking. He disliked these Mission that looked troublesome the most.
To have him suppress two Otherworld by himself, shouldn't the Prize Money be doubled?
On the other side.
Sahara Desert.
This was quite interesting. While other place Name in this World were full of Otherworld Style, the Name of this Desert remained unchanged.
Within this vast Sand Sea, there was a towering Mountain Range.
Raising the Vision further, one could overlook the area. Centered around the Mountain Range, there were Lake and Oasis of various sizes. The largest one was the Lake directly adjacent to the north side of the Mountain Range.
These Oasis were the Elf Kingdom named 'Nevartes'.
However, they didn't have a King because they had a Council System, with the Council President and Council Member responsible for the Management of the Nation.
And high in the High Altitude.
Many well-made Cannon Ship manufactured from Metal could be seen slowly Patrol along fixed routes, accompanied by Wind Dragon Knight.
Just looking at the appearance of these Magic Warship, they were indeed much Stronger than the Wooden Ship that the Human Nations still relied on Sail for.

Chapter 804: Optics Knowledge!
On an Elf Warship.
Nasuto, wearing a Dark Green Cape, leaned against the railing on the second floor.
He boredly watched his fellow Elf Race Warriors on the lower level, wearing Yellow Capes, walking around casually.
Like him, they were all enduring the relentless Sunlight and the oncoming Hot Wind day after day.
Fortunately, everyone was already used to it.
Coupled with the Elf Race's talent for eternal youth, no matter how much they were exposed to the sun, it wouldn't affect their fair skin.
"Ah, another day no different from yesterday..."
Nasuto scanned the vast Sand Sea. Unsurprisingly, there was no change, which made him sigh.
Don't look at his current appearance as a golden-haired, blue-eyed youth; he is already eighty-three years old this year.
Twenty-three years ago, when he was sixty years old, having finally reached adulthood, he joined the Elf Fleet thanks to his agile movements.
The following days were almost all like this.
The only change was that relying on his relatively excellent Sword Talent, his Cape changed from Yellow to Green, and he became a Vice Captain.
In reality, he was just the Captain's Assistant.
To become a full Captain and have a Battleship under his full management, he would probably have to wait another twenty or thirty years, because among the Elf Race, whose Lifespan is twice that of Humans on average, he was considered very young.
Suddenly, a steady voice sounded behind Nasuto.
"It's best to be careful recently. It seems several Kingdoms on the Barbarians' side have started a War, and there's no guarantee the War won't spread to our side."
"Uh, Captain Laide!"
Nasuto quickly straightened up and replied.
He saw a male Elf with ear-length golden hair and blue eyes walk up beside him: "To become a commander of the Fleet, you must constantly pay attention to the Intelligence from the Barbarians' side."
"Although their Magic Level and Technology Level are not as good as ours, look at this vast Desert. If enough tiny Sand accumulates, it can still bury an Oasis."
Although Nasuto didn't agree in his Heart, he didn't dare to refute.
"Yes, Captain Laide!"
Just then, a rush of Footsteps sounded, followed by an Elf Warrior wearing a Yellow Cape running over and loudly reporting to the two:
"Captain Yajier has issued a Maximum Alert, saying they encountered an Attack by a group of Flying Machines controlled by Barbarians in the north, and request nearby Patrol Fleets to provide Support as soon as possible!"
"What?!"
Laide and Nasuto exclaimed in unison.
"Those Barbarians actually dared to Attack us?"
"Seeking death!"
Nasuto shouted in Anger, while Laide was more Rational. He quickly ordered the Battleship and all Wind Dragon Knights to head towards the direction of Yajier's Fleet.
At the same time.
The entire Elf Kingdom was awakened by this sudden Maximum Alert.
But their Reaction Speed seemed a bit slow, because they hadn't encountered a Foreign Enemy Invasion for over a thousand years.
Half an hour ago.
Between the Halkeginia Continent and the Sahara Desert, there exists a Strait with an area of 5,500 square kilometers and an average Width of forty-three kilometers.
This Strait has no Name in the Zero Magic World, but in the Modern World, it is called the Strait of Gibraltar.
At this moment.
Above this relatively vast Strait, five All-Metal Warships, one large and four small, were slowly passing by, maintaining a 'two-one-two' Formation.
The Shadow cast by their enormous Body Size covered large areas of the originally sparkling Sea Surface.
At the same time, many Magic Beasts in the sea were startled and quickly dived deeper.
However, when they flew to a Position only fifteen kilometers from the Edge of the Sahara Desert, they visibly began to slow down and then floated in the Sky.
Like five giant Magic Beasts eyeing the vast Golden Sand Sea.
"There are about two hundred Life Auras in the Sky five hundred kilometers away. They should be the Elf Race's Patrol Team."
Borsalino wore Sunglasses, his left Hand in his Pocket, and his Right Hand raised in front of him, turning into a ball of Golden Light. He stood in front of the Floor-to-Ceiling Window in the Commander's Office, gazing at the Sky and Sand Sea ahead.
Although his Face hadn't changed now, his Expression was much more serious.
"First, Dispatch a Fighter Squadron and one hundred Major-class Sky Splitter Members. Have them try their best to Capture Alive those of the Elf Race. There are quite a few old geezers up there who are interested in them~"
"Yes!"
Rear Admiral Lan, as the Adjutant, immediately took the Order. He then took out his Den Den Mushi and began transmitting the Order to the entire Warship.
Meanwhile, Borsalino continued to perceive Auras over a larger Range.
It wasn't just Kuzan who had been getting Stronger over the years. Although he usually seemed lazy, he had also been improving himself.
It was just that he mainly focused on researching Optics Knowledge and the Development of his Glint-Glint Fruit Ability.
For example, like this now.
By combining the Light emitted from his Palm with Observation Haki, he greatly increased his Perception Speed and Perception Range.
Besides this, this Technique also had other Wonderful Uses...
Soon.
On the Deck outside this Aerospace Carrier, Pilots wearing Blue Uniforms began appearing and running towards their Fighter Aircraft.
At the same time.
Takeoff Directors wearing Yellow Vests walked to the side of the Runway, using various Hand Signals to guide the Ready Fighter Aircraft to move.
Not long after.
The first Monoplane Fighter, painted sky blue on the outside, with a White Symbol of a Long Sword inserted between a pair of wings printed on both sides of the fuselage.
Driven by the Propeller at the front, it roared out from the two-hundred-meter Runway at an increasing Speed, soaring straight into the Sky.
Then came the second, the third...
It wasn't until the thirtieth Fighter Aircraft flew out that the Deck finally quieted down.
This was a Fighter Squadron of the Air Force.
That is, two aircraft form a Group, ten form a Squad, thirty form a Squadron. An Aerospace Carrier is usually stationed with two Fighter Squadrons, which together form a Battalion.
But soon, another rush of rapid and dense Footsteps sounded, attracting the Personnel who were still on the Deck.
Those were Air Force Majors wearing Blue Justice Coats. More than half of them had a pair of pure white, wide Influence growing from their backs.
Because the World Government has now abolished the Four Blues Branch, there is no longer a need to distinguish between Headquarters and Branch in addressing them.
Seeing the Fighter Squadron gradually fly away, these one hundred Air Force Majors also stepped forward and flew out using their respective Means.
Some used skilled Moonwalk, some transformed into large flying Insects or Birds, but more people flapped the Influence behind them, flying like Angels.
They were the 'Sky-Rending Unit' that Borsalino mentioned.
Their Full Name is the 'White Sea Sky-Rending Unit', composed of one thousand Officers skilled in Flight Combat. They belong to the Elite Unit that can only be formed under the Flagship of an Air Force Admiral.
Although other Aerospace Carriers also have similar Troops, theirs are collectively referred to as the 'Airborne Unit'.
In fact, the Military's Higher-ups, namely Kong, Zephyr, and Tsuru, had considered whether to transfer the Fighter Aircraft Troops to the Otherworld's Auxiliary Legion and use these Personnel skilled in Aerial Combat as the Basic Combat Unit.
Because they trusted Human Combat Ability more, while Machinery was purely Auxiliary Equipment with a sealed Upper Limit.
Coupled with the emergence of the Technology for 'Winged Human Enhancement Serum' and 'Replicable Zoan (Normal Type) Fruit', their Confidence was greatly boosted.
However, the Output of these two was not yet large enough.
Moreover, the Flight Speed of most 'Winged Human' Soldiers still couldn't match that of the Propeller Fighter Aircraft, so the existence of the Fighter Aircraft Troops could only be maintained.
Thanks to the Protector of Lotov Brand Cocktail for the 10,000 Qidian Coin Tip! Bow! Thank you for your Support and Encouragement!
(End of this chapter)
Chapter 805: Fierce Aerial Combat!
"Report!"
"Speak."
Captain Yajier sat on the Sofa in the Office, enjoying a cup of hot Coffee. Hearing the soldier rush in without knocking, he immediately showed displeasure.
But nearly a hundred years of cultivation prevented him from making a fuss about it. He simply gave the Order without raising his head, his tone devoid of Feelings.
"Lookout personnel have discovered a large number of Flying Machines controlled by Barbarians ten kilometers to the North! Judging by their flight direction, they are heading straight for us!"
The Elf Race not only had things like Telescopes but also had Personnel specifically responsible for using 'Far Sight' Magic to Scan the surrounding Airspace.
"Hmm?"
Yajier raised his head in surprise, then quickly put down the cup in his hand.
By the time he reached the deck on the second level of the Battleship, the soldiers under his command were already starting to get flustered, as the Matter had occurred too suddenly.
"What are you panicking for? Stand at attention!!"
Captain Yajier immediately roared in displeasure. As soon as his voice rang out, everyone subconsciously stopped moving and focused their Gaze on him.
"Now listen to my Order!"
"Dragon Knights are to establish two Defense Lines in front. All Ship Cannons immediately load ammunition and prepare for Combat. The Warship Barrier is to be activated immediately. Madafu, sound the Maximum Alert and request the nearby Patrol Fleet for Support as soon as possible!"
An Spirit wearing a green Cape not far away quickly shouted in response.
"Yes!"
"Yes!"
For a moment, the sounds of receiving orders rose one after another, making the originally chaotic Atmosphere orderly. The Spirits' expressions also gradually regained their composure.
On the other side.
Fifty Elf Knights riding Wind Dragons began to divide into two parts according to Captain Yajier's Order.
Twenty of them formed the first Defense Line, and the remaining thirty formed the second Defense Line.
Soon.
The Elf Knights on the first Defense Line saw blue Flying Machines attacking them at high Speed.
"So fast!"
An Spirit exclaimed in surprise.
"Hmph, the Speed is decent, but unfortunately, machinery is just machinery. Our Dragons are all Wind Dragons. With similar Speed, we are definitely more agile!"
Another Elf Knight said coldly.
"Damnable Barbarians, how dare they Attack our Elf Race! What nerve!"
"Take them down!"
"Charge!"
Seeing the Distance between the two sides getting closer, the surrounding Elf Knights could no longer hold back and ordered their Wind Dragons beneath them to meet the enemy. At the same time, they cast the Magic they were skilled at from the dragons' backs.
Compared to Humans, they did not have Magic Wands in their hands. Most Spirits carried refined Long Swords.
Some Spirits were completely bare-handed.
But as green Radiance emanated from their bodies, five or six sharp Blades were seen flying out from their Clothing, slowly floating around them.
At the same time.
The Fighter Aircraft side launched the first Attack. As the Pilot in the Bridge pressed a button, the Thunder Spear Missiles hanging under the Wings immediately shot out with spraying Exhaust Flames, *swish swish swish*.
Hmm...
Propeller Fighter Aircraft equipped with Missiles. The Scene did look a bit strange.
"What is that thing?"
"Never mind what it is, intercept it or dodge it!"
The Elf Knights shouted and made their Reactions one after another. Some ordered their Wind Dragons beneath them to spew out fierce Whirlwinds, while others had their Wind Dragons focus on dodging, and they themselves unleashed Fire Pillars with their Long Swords.
[Boom! Boom! Boom!]
In the blink of an eye, continuous Explosion Firelight appeared in the Sky. Some Missiles were hit by Magic and airburst, while others successfully 'locked onto' an Elf Knight using the Airborne Radar's Guidance Information.
This was thanks to Doctor Stylish from the Imperial Arms World.
It was his Technology that allowed these Fighter Aircraft, which were still in the 'World War II' era, to enjoy 'modern' Technology Equipment in advance.
[Rat-a-tat-tat-tat-tat-tat...]
The Wind Dragons of the Elf Knights did not give the Fighter Jet Group a chance to fire a second round of Missiles.
With comparable Speed and even better agility, they easily closed the Distance between the two sides. This caused the Pilots to directly press the fire button.
In an instant, the two large-caliber Machine Guns under the fuselage began to spew out bright light.
The fierce Bullet Rain punched out one Blood Hole after another on the Wind Dragons that didn't manage to dodge in one encounter. If the Elf Knights on them were unlucky, they suffered the same fate.
For a moment, the Screams of Wind Dragons and Spirits filled the Air.
The Fighter Aircraft side also suffered Combat Loss. In the fierce 'close-quarters combat', it was inevitable that they would have their Wings torn off by the Wind Dragons that caught up or be destroyed by the various Magic unleashed by the Spirits.
However...
*Splurt—*
An Elf Knight who had just blown up a Fighter Aircraft and revealed a triumphant Smile, felt a bout of Severe Pain in his Throat the next second. Looking closely, he discovered that a blue-clothed Barbarian had appeared in front of him at some point.
That indifferent Expression, the Gaze like he was looking at a dead person, and the slowly retracting blood-stained finger became the last scene he saw before falling into Darkness.
Why?
This Elf Knight couldn't understand what exactly happened even as he died. Why could the opponent still appear in front of him when the Flying Machine had clearly been destroyed by himself?
The answer is, of course... because every Air Force Pilot had mastered at least Moonwalk and Finger Pistol. Some excellent ones could even use Shave.
Moonwalk was the minimum Condition.
So they didn't need things like Parachutes at all.
This was also the Gap between Sea Star Air Force Soldiers and Otherworld Air Force Soldiers. The former had the Ability to continue protecting themselves and fighting in the Air even if their Fighter Aircraft was broken.
"Roar!"
At this moment, the Wind Dragon beneath his feet sensed the Commotion on its back, but immediately found that the Reins on its body had been pulled up again.
This caused it to subconsciously quiet down, but it didn't realize that its Master had changed.
"Charge!"
"Go!"
Seeing that the Fighter Jet Group only consisted of twenty to thirty aircraft, the thirty Elf Knights not far away quickly controlled the Wind Dragons beneath them to fly up and join the Battlefield.
But as they fought, they discovered in horror that as long as they destroyed a Fighter Aircraft, an even more troublesome Opponent would appear.
"Pfft—Ah!"
"Why can they fly?!"
"Since when did Barbarians master the Magic of stepping on Air!"
However, the Air Force Pilots who had lost their Fighter Aircraft ignored the screams of these Elf Knights and indifferently stepped on the Air beneath their feet, rushing forward to begin the Slaughter.
Because they simply didn't understand what the other side was saying.
"Be careful of their Magic that bursts with Speed! Immediately cover yourselves with Wind Spheres, then use Flying Swords to deal with them!"
An Elf Knight over a hundred years old quickly shouted.
Because the Elf Race had a long Lifespan, they received High Rank Education for a longer time than Humans. They were not a foolish Race that only wasted Time.
After paying with the lives of more than ten Elf Knights, they gradually adapted to the Effects of Moonwalk, Shave, and Finger Pistol.
At the same time, they quickly thought of a Method to counter.
As expected.
When layer after layer of rapidly rotating Wind Spheres covered the Wind Dragons and Elf Knights, the Air Force Pilots could no longer approach them. They could only awkwardly dodge the various Whirlwinds and Flames attacking them by relying on Moonwalk and Shave.
Naturally, Casualties also gradually increased.
"Captain!"
"Someone else is coming from over there!"
At this moment, an Elf Knight suddenly let out a cry of alarm. The Spirit over a hundred years old from before turned his head to look and indeed saw dense black dots flying from afar.
Soon, his Eyes suddenly widened, and he muttered in disbelief, "That is... the Winged Human Race?"
