Chapter 156: Chapter 156: The Turbulent Situation in East Asia!

Southern Japan.

West Coast of the Miyako Islands, Hachimantai Island Naval Base.

As Japan’s largest naval base, it not only houses the most advanced and largest scale warships, but also serves as a transit point for Japan’s Pacific expansion efforts.

At this moment, numerous armed warships are leaving the huge naval base, advancing into the depths of the ocean.

The same scene is occurring at the military base on Nanyao Island.

With the fleets from both sides deploying full force, the northern waters of Jade Island have suddenly become turbulent, and the recently calm East Asia is once again stirred!

...

The news of the confrontation between Jade Island and the Japanese fleet inadvertently spread throughout the world.

As for the cause of the incident, it’s become indistinguishable, as both Jade Island and the Japanese side have offered their explanations.

The moment this news broke, it was like throwing a stone into a calm lake, creating ripples upon ripples.

Consequently, media journalists across the globe have mobilized!

The reason being, such intense military collisions are undoubtedly dangerous actions, and if not properly controlled, they could severely impact the peace and stability of the entire East Asia.

Moreover, this incident took place shortly after the military conflict between Jade Island and South Korea ended, thus amplifying its effect.

Images and video footage of the stand-off between the two fleets inundated the entire internet, driving netizens who are concerned about the Jade Island situation into a frenzy.

The internet is flooded with comments and reports about this event.

”Breaking! Military clash between Jade Island and Japan, fleets from both sides in a tense stand-off!”

”Shocking! Jade Island aims to challenge Japan’s dominance in the Pacific!”

”Unstoppable! After defeating South Korea, Jade Island now sets its sights on Japan!”

Such news reports swept the internet like a storm, and netizens who are always keen on current affairs quickly voiced their opinions.

”Oh my God, I’m so in awe of Isle Master Jiang! After crushing Samsung’s forces, are they going to knock down the Japanese now?”

”Simply too cool! Watching the videos, despite Jade Island’s fleet having fewer ships, their morale isn’t lacking at all. Isle Master Jiang is formidable!”

”I expected this conflict to happen but didn’t think it would come so quickly. Two tigers cannot coexist on one mountain. We onlookers better grab our snacks and watch.”

”Honestly, I’m quite worried for Isle Master Jiang. The Japanese can’t be underestimated like the Koreans, this conflict is definitely a mega earthquake, the outcome is hard to predict!”

”Support Isle Master Jiang! Even though the fleet is outnumbered, the attack power of Jade Island’s warships is battle-proven. Regardless of how many warships the Japanese have, they will still end up as moving targets at sea.”

”By the way, how did this conflict start? Anyone in the know?”

”Both sides have their own claims. Japan says Jade Island violated their territorial sovereignty, and Jade Island has the same argument. Clearly, it’s all a result of the current global trend of ocean expansion. In the end, it depends on who has the bigger fist, the reasons aren’t important.”

”Exactly! Whoever has the bigger fist is in the right.”

On the internet, various comments keep emerging.

Most netizens are more concerned about how this confrontation will conclude, not so much about its origins.

In fact, in an era where the scramble for oceans is intensifying, such disputes are not uncommon, so it doesn’t come as much of a surprise.

However, this does not stop netizens from expressing concerns about the current situation in Asia.

To reiterate, this should be the second military dispute in East Asia in the past few months.

The first dispute, of course, is between Jade Island and South Korea, which obviously ended with a grand victory for Jade Island.

However, its impact was far-reaching.

Firstly, the economy of East Asia.

The collapse of the Samsung Empire superficially seems like just the decline of South Korea, but the economic interests of other countries involved were obviously hurt as well.

Although Jade Island is gradually replacing South Korea as a leading technology powerhouse, it’s clear this transition can’t be smoothed over in just a few short months, it requires time.

This is why, when Jade Island again gets into a similar dispute with Japan, netizens are deeply concerned.

Because Japan is not only the largest maritime military power in Asia, it is also a leading technology nation in Asia. If serious conflict truly ensues between the two, the impact would undoubtedly be far more severe than the fall of the Samsung Empire.

...

While the world is giving immense attention to the confrontation between the two fleets, Jade Island remains in a state of remarkable tranquility.

This situation has considerably changed from the chaos that ensued during the first attack by the South Korean fleet.

For the residents living on Jade Island, repeated naval engagements have cemented their confidence in Jade Island’s military strength.

Witnessing Jade Island’s warships repeatedly destroy enemy fleets without a scratch fills them with immense pride.

Therefore, even when similar events occur again, Jade Island’s usual harmonious state remains unchanged.

Laputa City continues to be a vibrant technology city, while the Dream Paradise Resort Special Zone in the east is still a romantic and warm tourist spot, full of visitors.

However, compared to Jade Island’s calmness, things aren’t so peaceful on the Japanese side.

Hachimantai Island Naval Base.

In the front-line command center hall, the Japanese Southern Expeditionary Fleet Commander, Toukou Heijou, watching the video images of Jade Island’s fleet forming a solid defensive net, grits his teeth, his eyes nearly ablaze.

He has been in command of the entire Southern Expeditionary Fleet for three years.

During these three years, he has used various methods to continuously strengthen this fleet, expanding its influence across the entire Pacific Ocean. Moreover, through years of exploration, he has occupied many large and small islands in the Pacific, greatly expanding Japan’s national territory.

Such remarkable achievements have elevated Toukou Heijou’s prestige to its zenith, giving him immense influence across Japan.

Yet, just as he was preparing to continue his momentum to overrun the United States on the other side of the Pacific, he discovered that a lion was unexpectedly on the rise at his rear, posing a direct threat to the security of the Southern Expeditionary Fleet with an aggressive stance.

What frustrated him even more was that this time, the other side nearly built an artificial island right under his nose, almost at his doorstep!

This is akin to being stabbed viciously in the back, an unbearable situation for him!
