516: Chapter 516 You Can Deal With It

“Alright, Masink, I’ll do my best.” Nakae Koji’s tone sounded somewhat perfunctory.

“No! No! No! Not ‘do your best,’ but ‘must’! ‘Must’!” Masink roared.

“Alright, Masink!” Nakae Koji replied again.

After hanging up the phone, Masink pondered for a moment, then picked up the phone again.

This time, he called the air base.

His order was to constantly monitor the movements of the Great Sun Country’s warships. If they crossed the Mississippi River, they were to immediately launch and shoot them down.

On Warship 13.

“Captain, our warship has been locked on,” the operator reported.

“Open fire immediately!” the Captain commanded.

“What? Captain, please think twice! Once we fire on our own people, our crime of rebellion will be confirmed!” the operator said in a panic.

“Execute the order!” The Captain was unmoved.

“Sorry, Captain, please forgive me, but I cannot execute your order!” the operator said, lowering his head.

“Execute it immediately!” The Captain pulled out a gun from his waist and pressed it against his forehead.

“...Yes!” The operator sighed, like a deflated ball, and answered.

“Chiu chiu chiu~, chiu chiu chiu~”

Warship 13 was the first to open fire.

Warship 14 followed closely behind, also beginning to fire.

It should be noted that due to the high speed of laser propagation, warships do not have enough time to automatically activate their Energy Shields when attacked.

Warship 11 was hit by a laser and was forced to withdraw from the battle sequence.

The other three pursuing warships, seeing this situation, quickly increased their altitude and simultaneously activated their shields.

This single upward maneuver caused the distance between them to rapidly widen.

Nakae Koji was furious upon learning of the damage to Warship 11.

He immediately ordered the remaining three warships to pursue at full speed, and to destroy them if necessary.

Putian Xiaoyezi was even more enraged after receiving the news.

He felt it was time to contact Oriental Chen, so he picked up the phone and made the call.

There is a 12-hour time difference between the United States of America and Huaguo, so it should be around 3 PM in Batuo City.

“What is it?” Oriental Chen answered the phone coldly.

Putian Xiaoyezi felt a bit relieved hearing Oriental Chen ask this.

This indicated that he did not yet know what had happened on the American continent.

But he didn't know that Oriental Chen was sitting in the warship's command room, leisurely watching this comical performance.

These past few days, he had been waiting for the results of the investigation in the Bayinbuluke region, and it was a good opportunity to see what Putian Xiaoyezi was up to.

“Mr. Dongfang, something has happened on the American continent,” Putian Xiaoyezi said cautiously.

“What happened?” Oriental Chen asked coldly.

“Two warships suddenly rebelled,” Putian Xiaoyezi replied.

“You can’t handle it?” Oriental Chen asked calmly.

“Uh...” Putian Xiaoyezi was stumped by the question.

Oriental Chen’s reaction was not within his expectations.

He thought Oriental Chen would surely scold him and then issue a series of instructions.

“Mr. Dongfang, I have already ordered people to pursue them. It’s just that, if we do this, those two warships might be destroyed,” Putian Xiaoyezi explained.

“And then?” Oriental Chen asked.

“I was worried about ruining your important matters, so I reported to you immediately,” Putian Xiaoyezi said subserviently.

“Alright, I understand. You handle it as you see fit. Is there anything else?” Oriental Chen said.

Oriental Chen knew what he was trying to do.

Want to probe my hand?

No way.

“Also, I wanted to ask you, can you...”

“No!” Oriental Chen cut him off before he could finish his question.

“Mr. Dongfang, what I mean is...”

“You don’t need to say it. I don’t have a habit of cleaning up other people’s messes. Also, I warn you, if you make mistakes repeatedly, your time as Prime Minister will soon be over,” Oriental Chen warned.

“...Yes!” Putian Xiaoyezi replied after a moment of silence.

“That’s it then!” Oriental Chen was about to hang up.

“Mr. Dongfang, please wait, there’s one more thing that needs your approval,” Putian Xiaoyezi quickly said.

“Speak!”

“On those two warships, there are also the material verification personnel you just arranged. Once they are destroyed, it will be very difficult for me to protect them,” Putian Xiaoyezi said.

“Are you threatening me?” Oriental Chen asked.

“I wouldn’t dare! It’s just that besides destroying them, I have no other way,” Putian Xiaoyezi explained.

“That’s your business, it has nothing to do with me. But my people cannot be harmed,” Oriental Chen said.

“This...” Putian Xiaoyezi was frustrated; he couldn’t extract any useful information at all.

“Mr. Dongfang, then can we ask them to help...”

“Putian Xiaoyezi, they are just material verification personnel. They don’t understand your language and haven’t undergone special training, so I’m afraid they won’t be able to help you,” Oriental Chen refused again.
