Chapter 1606 - Yamata no Orochi’s Delusion (1/2)
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The commanding officer of Sakura Island was very angry. He could not believe that just when everything was about to succeed, an accident happened.
“Who is that Hua guy?! Why is there no information about him in intelligence? Do people in the intelligence department get paid for nothing? How could they not have gotten any information on a guy like this who is able to stop Yamata no Orochi?!”
His face turned even more livid as he watched the giant snake being violently beaten on the screen before him. Orochi was a very powerful mythical being of Sakura Island, and yet he was being suppressed by a Hua guy! The commanding officer could not stand such a thing!
The faces of many of the officers around were dark as well. They did not expect anything like this to happen, and they were anxious because they have no time to waste.
“Send out fighter jets! Put everything aside first… Ask our men to riddle that guy with bullet holes and then help Kame Orochi capture the Jewel!” the commanding officer gave the order with a cold face.
They had to end this before Hua’s reinforcement came. As long as they seized the opportunity and captured this spiritual energy sealing point, Sakura Island could rise to dominance in the future world with its spiritual energy fully recovered.
At the thought of this, the commanding officer’s eyes turned a little red.
…
One after another, the most advanced fighter jets shot up into the sky with fiery tails, filling the air with sonic booms. They streaked across the sky, leaving behind plumes of white smoke. Accompanied by a rumbling sound, five fighter jets flew in an arrowhead formation toward the cruise ship Jewel.
For fighter jets, thousands of kilometers were not far, so it did not take long for them to arrive. Upon reaching their destination, the pilots received orders from their commanders to pull the triggers.
Da! Da! Da!
The fighters’ muzzles spewed golden tongues of flame. Bullets flew out in rapid bursts, turning into long golden dragons as they shot toward the Hua man down below.
…
It was a shocking scene. The huge hand formed by the water was dragging the giant snake out of the sea. What kind of power was this? Why could it condense the seawater into the shape of a palm?
Yamata no Orochi was struggling in the palm, his tails lashing about like sharp swords. But he could not break free.
Standing in front of the deck, Yu Ge gasped as he watched. “Senior is indeed awesome… So what if Yamata no Orochi strikes? In Senior’s hands, he is nothing but a reptile!” He clenched his fists in excitement.
At this moment, the people on the ship had come to their senses. Many people were sucking in their breaths, but many more were excited. How could they not be excited? They thought they were dead, but suddenly, a young man who seemed like Superman appeared and blocked the monster for them!
This was perhaps the blessing of heaven, or it was just plain luck.
In any case, people were cheering. Once again, some people excitedly took out their mobile phones and began filming. It would be a shame not to capture such a tense scene.
Meanwhile, the superhumans on the ship could not quite believe what they saw. They wondered if the Immortal from Hua had made a move? Otherwise, how could he have the strength to hold back the mystical Orochi?
The monk’s face was a little pale. He had just used his supernatural ability to block the sound waves of the great snake, and as a result, he almost got seriously injured. Yamata no Orochi was just too fearsome, and that was exactly why he was so amazed. The snake, so powerful to him, was being played by the youth as if it were a little reptile!
‘Who is this young man?’ The monk glanced at Yu Ge, whose face was red with excitement. He recognized the latter as a Qi cultivator from the Immortal Island of Penglai. ‘Is that young man an Earth Immortal of Penglai?’
There were only a few Qi cultivator powers in Hua, and the only ones that could send Earth Immortals were Mount Longhu and Kunlun. However, neither of these powers took part in the voyage of the Jewel.
‘Who the hell is this youth?’
Suddenly, the monk heard a vague rumbling sound. Frowning, he looked up at the distant sky and saw one fighter jet after another approaching at high speed. “Fighter jets?” he froze for a moment.
Not only him, but the Western superhumans also paused. “Why are there fighter jets? Which power sent them?” Doubts filled their hearts.
The fighter jets were closing in fast, filling the air with deafening sonic booms.
Many people on the cruise ship saw the planes. They were all dumbfounded, wondering why there were fighter jets here.
Bu Fang heard the rumbling too. He looked up in confusion and saw planes that appeared like big birds.
Just when everyone was surprised and puzzled by the appearance of these fighter jets, their muzzles suddenly spat out golden flames, accompanied by a shrill noise.
Da da da da da da da…
The flames joined in a long golden line as they closed in on Bu fang. A splashing sound rang out as bullets hit the sea and sent small columns of water up into the air.
At last, modern firearms joined the battle!
All the people onboard were stunned. When the bullets hit the ship and made a clanging sound, only then did they come back to their senses and screamed.
Everyone knew that with firearms came death.
People began to run around frantically, no longer taking pictures or videos, rushing toward the interior of the ship. As long as they were inside, the bullets could not hit them. For a moment, everyone ran wildly to seek shelters like panicked ants.
But they were not the target of the fighter jets. Therefore, these people were unharmed after hiding inside.
With the ordinary people hiding, the only ones left on the deck were the superhumans. As people with supernatural abilities, they might not be able to resist firearms, but they could dodge bullets, not to mention that they were not the target of the fighter jets either.
Xiao Ai’s face was pale, and she was very angry. “Shameless Sakura Island! They definitely planned this! First the Yamata brothers, then Yamata no Orochi, and now the fighter jets! They’re crazy!” She stomped her foot in anger.
