Chapter 785

【The great powers converge, possibly about to launch a world war; the United States demands compensation from China for losses!】

【The king of Shanghai's Bund declares: I fear no great powers—come as many as you like, I'll destroy them all!】

【The common people cheer wildly, rejoicing at the annihilation of the great powers' fleets!】

"Damn it!"

"Devils! The Chinese are devils—tens of thousands of soldiers just died like that?"

When the news reached Europe and other countries, protests erupted among the populace.

Yet, the high commands of all nations remained remarkably restrained; aside from issuing protests in the news, they took not a single concrete action.

Nothing else!

Fear!

The great powers' warships were the most advanced weapons of this era—yet their fleets vanished without so much as a splash; who would dare send fleets into Chinese territorial waters now?

Play with water?

But the price of this water-play is terrifying—the great powers simply cannot afford it.

Chat group.

A Xing: "Just wiped out the great powers' fleet—felt amazing!"

Komaki: "??? No way, you pulled off something this huge without saying a word?"

Su Xiao: "Where's the video? I want the video!"

A Xing: "【Video】"

Ye Hei: "Good kid, impressive. Now, I can call you China Captain."

Su Xiao: "China Captain—deserved title."

Qingshan: "Is martial arts really this terrifying? So many fleets melted away in an instant."

Komaki: "Still not used to it, Seven Seas? The Shangcheng has cultivation techniques—you could try taking a loan to train. One day, you could become the world's ruler."

Qingshan: "World ruler?! No thanks—I couldn't do that. A Xing fights invaders, but what do I fight? I still think being an ordinary person is better."

A Xing: "Lords, do I need to do anything else?"

Su Xiao: "Do something? Of course—keep showcasing your power! Go display it at famous landmarks worldwide, so even with nuclear weapons, they won't dare act rashly. Otherwise, who knows what schemes they'll hatch next?"

A Xing: "Alright. Then I'll show them one more time—until they're completely subdued."

Ma Wencai: "Never thought the nations of the future would suffer so many calamities. Hmph, then I must act too—eliminate threats while they're still sprouting."

Zhu Youjian: "【Appreciation】Good! Bold!"

Qingshan: "【Shivering】By the way, Teacher Chiqian asked me to pick up a child named Shiina Mako—what should I do?"

Su Xiao: "??? You're being asked to pick up Shiina Mako?"

Qingshan: "Is Shiina Mako famous? Is she one of those anime characters?"

Su Xiao: "Yes. 【The Pet Girl of Sakura Apartment】—she's the female lead. You're the supporting character."

Qingshan: "【Embarrassed】I'm not the main character!!"

Komaki: "Unfortunately, you're not. 【Shrugs】"

Su Xiao: "But it doesn't matter—at least your fortune is better than hers. Seven Seas, quickly open your permissions—I want to meet Mako!"

Kurogane: "Why do you want to meet Mako? Is she your idol?"

Su Xiao: "No, I just think it's a waste to use such talent on manga. Such ability should be used on **."

Qingshan: "【Shocked】Su Xiao, how obsessed are you with ** that you want Mako to draw that stuff? No! If you take her, you'll corrupt her!"

Asuna: "Fiercely oppose Su Xiao!! If Su Xiao gets Mako, who knows what filth she'll make her draw!"

Komaki: "I also sense danger—I don't want to wake up one day and find myself turned into some kind of heroine. Seven Seas, don't let Su Xiao meet Mako!"

Qingshan: "I'll try."

Su Xiao: "【Speechless】You're wasting talent."
