Chapter 1925 Battle of the North Sea (71)
His gaze lingered on the news coming from the North Sea, and he couldn't help but exclaim, "This Rockefeller Kingdom is truly a force to be reckoned with! They don't make a move until they've shocked the entire world!"
Since the Rockefeller Kingdom invaded the North Sea, the news has spread like wildfire around the world in just five days.
In those five days, the Rockefeller Kingdom demonstrated astonishing strength and speed, conquering seven kingdoms and thirty-nine islands with lightning speed.
Among these factors, transportation became the main obstacle to the further expansion of the Rockefeller empire.
After all, in this world covered by vast oceans, long journeys take a lot of time.
However, even in the face of such difficulties, the Rockefeller Kingdom's offensive pace remained unstoppable.
Even more surprisingly, the soldiers of the Rockefeller Kingdom did not seem to need to take action themselves.
They could easily sweep through a country with just their powerful warriors.
These powerful individuals possessed strength beyond imagination; they were like war gods descending upon the land, invincible wherever they went.
Meanwhile, the soldiers of the Rockefeller Kingdom were mainly responsible for the cleanup work and eliminating the remaining resistance forces.
This highly efficient combat method made the Rockefeller Kingdom's advance exceptionally smooth, with almost no obstacles encountered.
Basically, as soon as the Rockefeller Kingdom's warships arrive on the shore, they can crush the enemy's main force, eliminate all obvious resistance, and bring them under their control within a day.
However, five days is nothing compared to the vast expanse of the North Sea.
Despite the Rockefeller Kingdom's army's rapid advance over the past five days, they have not even reached one-tenth of the North Sea.
At this very moment, on the surface of the North Sea, a massive warship is cutting through the waves.
On the deck of the warship stood a burly man; he was Caesar.
"Not here yet?"
Caesar asked, looking impatient and bored.
"General, it's still half a day's journey!"
The subordinate standing to the side quickly replied.
"Fine!"
Caesar waved his hand helplessly, seemingly weary of the long journey.
During those five days, Caesar encountered almost no worthy opponents.
Beihai's strength was far too weak; the strongest opponent he encountered was at most a brigadier general.
Such an opponent could not possibly arouse Caesar's fighting spirit or interest.
And so Caesar waited listlessly on the deck, as time ticked by.
Finally, after a long half-day wait, the warship gradually approached an island.
When Caesar saw the island's port, his brows suddenly furrowed, and his previously relaxed expression instantly turned serious.
At the same time, his body seemed to be propelled by an invisible force, and he suddenly stood up from the recliner.
"Interesting, there's actually a master in Beihai... Wait, why does this master look so familiar!"
Caesar's gaze was fixed on the shore, where a man holding a wooden staff stood.
When Caesar saw the scars on the man's eyes...
"It's that blind man!"
The image of that person from over a decade ago flashed into his mind instantly—the blind man who appeared on Camee Island and was personally recruited by his father.
Caesar's brow furrowed, a premonition rising within him.
He muttered to himself, "This is troublesome! I didn't expect there to be such a master in Beihai!"
He, who had been somewhat lazy, finally perked up and stared intently at the blind man on the distant island's coastline.
And that blind man was none other than Yixiao, who had disappeared for twelve or thirteen years.
Since the Rockefeller Kingdom held a competition to determine the most outstanding talents after its founding, Yi Xiao has vanished without a trace, as if he had disappeared from the face of the earth.
Caesar never expected to meet him again in the North Sea.
What made Caesar even more uneasy was that, judging from the other party's posture, they were clearly not here with good intentions.
"Lean closer!"
Caesar acted decisively, issuing orders to his lieutenant beside him.
The lieutenant was taken aback by Caesar's decision.
But he quickly regained his senses, grabbed the binoculars, and followed Caesar's gaze to the island.
Just then, people saw a figure standing quietly on the shore of the island in the distance.
Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a blind man holding a wooden cane, standing there steadily like a statue, as if he had been waiting for a long time.
Upon seeing this, the lieutenant immediately ordered the ships to head east.
Once the order was given, the entire fleet seemed to be under a spell, instantly halting its advance.
Immediately afterwards, all the ships turned around and sped off to the east.
Seeing this, Caesar also stood up from his seat and walked slowly toward the bow of the ship with steady steps.
After stopping, his gaze became increasingly serious as he stared intently at the man in the distance.
As one of the world's strongest individuals, Caesar possesses an exceptionally keen sense of power.
Although the other party was not tall, he could feel the aura of a strong person emanating from him.
This aura, like surging ocean waves, emanated continuously from the man.
Caesar knew very well how immense the power contained within this seemingly unremarkable man was.
Caesar did not sense any threat from the other party.
This means that even if the two sides actually fought, Caesar was absolutely confident that he could defeat him.
As the ship gradually approached the shore, it became clear that the island was actually just a deserted island, and the surrounding waters were full of reefs and shoals, making it unsuitable for ships to dock directly.
If they get too close, the ships could easily run aground and be damaged.
Therefore, when they were about a kilometer from the shore, Caesar decisively issued the order to stop advancing.
In an instant, Caesar leaped up like a rocket that had been ignited.
His body traced an astonishing arc through the air, plummeting like a meteor before finally landing steadily on the deserted island.
Because of Caesar's enormous size, when his feet touched the ground, the entire coastline shook violently as if struck by a meteorite.
The ground trembled, as if unable to bear Caesar's weight, and dust billowed up where he stood, forming a huge cloud of smoke.
The cloud of smoke spread rapidly, like a disturbed swarm of bees, covering an area of hundreds of meters.
Just as the billowing dust was about to approach Yixiao, it seemed to encounter an invisible wall and was forcefully blocked.
All the dust stopped abruptly a hundred meters away from Yixiao, as if held down by an invisible giant hand, preventing even a speck of dust from rising.
