133 The First Half of the Great Power

Japan's Capital Ministry of Defense

The commander of the Ministry of Defense, who had heard the report from the first convoy, was talking to Mitsuki.

"It's unbelievable. Fleet Showdown against an easy target to destroy by air strikes. Moreover, you can't just barge in on a single ship....."

The Ministry of Defense executives are puzzled by the offer from the Holy Militia fleet, which is far from common-sense of war.

Since the intentions of the empire, which has a lot of influence in the world, are strong, the Japanese government also captured it as a diplomatic issue, and gave a direction to take a form that is as consistent as possible with the intentions of the empire.

“I have heard that the Holy Millennial Empire intends to be its own.

They must know the strength of the Gra-Varcas Empire...

Probably quite confident.

Negotiate whether we can add a frigate to observe the strength of the Holy Millennial's newest battleship.

It's an inherently secret move, but it seems like you want to show it to us, and you want to analyze it thoroughly later if possible. ”

The Ministry of Defense has asked to be accompanied by a frigate.

"Commander, the Japanese side has informed us that they would like to be accompanied by a frigate for observation."

Fleet Commander Tachyon wrinkles between his brows.

"... this time, instructions have also been given from my own country to show the strength of Japan.

However, I also want to rule out the possibility that it will be judged by other countries that "Japan could have won because it was there".

to Japan,

This battle will never come to an end.

It is publicly stated that Japan has not taken any action against other countries in this battle.

If you can protect these three points, you can tell them that only one ship can come if you are more than 50 km away. "

"Ha!!"

Tachion's words were conveyed to the Japanese side.

Of course, the fleet itself is not within sight, but the frigate is equipped with various observation equipment. If it is about 50km, we can understand what kind of battle is being carried out.

In Japan, which has been contacted, information is quickly communicated from the militia to the government, and the Japanese side also accepts.

One of the Maritime Self-Defense Force 1st Corps 5th Corps Aegis ships was to follow the battleship Cosmo 50km behind.

Captain Eliza!!

Tachyon speaks to Captain Eliza.

Yes.

Tachyon laughs furiously.

”...... I can finally fulfill the snow insult”

Around my thoughts.

The Holy Millennial Empire was the strongest.

Standing at the pinnacle of three civilizations in the grasped world, as a result of accelerating the study of the magical empire in ancient times, it has the power to isolate itself from other countries.

Sometimes the barbarians fought, but after winning successive battles, they established an overwhelming position in the international community.

However, a transitional nation, the Empire of Gra Varcas, emerges from the western lands.

They lightly descended on the second civilization area, Reifol, and instantly expanded the area of control. At the end of the day, we ambushed a world conference hosted by the Holy Millennial Empire, and even our strongest fleet, the Type Zero Magic Fleet, collided and virtually broke apart.

The counter-attack in the name of national prestige failed even with the introduction of ancient weapons.

Some countries began to think that the Gra Varcas Empire was an unbeatable opponent.

With such anxiety spreading, the eastern island nation and Japan emerged to win consecutive battles against the Gra Varcas Empire, dispelling the anxiety of other countries, and gathered expectations and trust at once.

Many countries will no longer expect the Holy Millennial Empire, and Japan's presence will only grow stronger every day.

In the meantime, the most advanced ship in the Empire, the Oriharkon Class Battleship, has been completed.

Using Oriharkon alloy, it was so expensive, from hull to weaponry, that I thought the fleet would be able to buy it.

The successive defeats and the decline in the prestige of the nation have moved the army, the economy, and His Majesty the Emperor to strengthen them even more than in the past.

During repeated exams, its strength overshadowed the strength of the naval officers and earned them absolute trust.

The Oriharkon class battleship, which has been greatly enhanced from the original expected performance, will be put into this operation with the expectations of the Holy Millennial Empire in mind.

Captain Eliza, I'm dealing with ten hostiles... can you do that?

"Yes, this Oriharkon-class magic battleship has overwhelmed all other Battleships."

I will definitely deliver the overwhelming victory to His Majesty, and I will outdo the Japanese nation that I see there. ”

I'm looking forward to it.

Bearing in mind the expectations of the Holy Millennial Empire, the Magic Battleship Cosmo heads west.

Fleet Commander Akeil was looking over the remaining fleet and gnashing his teeth.

Normally, the beautiful sea and the elegance of the fleet almost diminish, but considering the opponent who will fight the battle before, the beautiful sea also looks like a magical sea that invites to heaven.

Although Battleship 3, Cruiser 4, and Destroyer 4 remain in the fleet, the aircraft carrier has been destroyed, so it may be said that its strength as an aircraft carrier maneuvering unit has been lost.

In addition, the ship that sunk one destroyer was left for rescue, so it had a substantial combat power of 10.

In contrast, the enemy fleet consisted of 33 Allied fleets of Japan and the Holy Millennial Empire.

Considering the strength of the Japanese Army so far, the ratio of strength was obvious.

"The march of death..."

"Oh... oh my..."

I wish I had a good system, but I lacked the strength to march.

Especially when the Japanese guided bullets were shot, the reality was that Akeil's anger and fear were rising.

"Excuse me, we are receiving a transmission from the enemy."

"Communication...??"

Those who fought the enemy air strongholds once said they had a transmission before the battle.

I decided to ignore it because I could have exposed my position if I replied.

Repeated radio transmissions from the enemy will eventually locate our coordinates and reach up to the annotation of the 10 Gravaco Imperial Navy ships sailing through them.

Our location is fully identified and we will listen.

"... connect the communications"

"Ha!!"

Radio communication on the battlefield. Fleet Commander Akeil begins communications, thinking it's an alternate world.

"I am Commander Akeil of the Central 2nd Fleet of the Empire of Gra Varcas.

What can I do for you? "

Akeil speaks bluntly.

You're finally connected.

I am Commander Tachyon of the sacred mixed Militar Empire magic fleet Death Burr.

Tell the sailing Imperial fleet of Gra Varcas.

The ratio of our forces to yours is clear. Surrender your fleets.

If you do not surrender, I will destroy you all without even allowing you to escape.

There's no one left... this is the last mercy from His Majesty the Emperor of the Holy Millennial Empire to you all. "

It was a strong expression of intent not to tolerate surrender after the battle.

"Do you think your fleet will lose to my glorious Gra Varcas Imperial Fleet?

Even if we fight a mixed fleet with Japan, we won't lose as easily as you think!! "

What are you talking about? Japan does not take part in this naval battle. The easier it was for the Holy Millennial Empire to fall apart, the more you and I could not help but beat each other. ”

Japan does not participate. Kornephorus' bridge was overwhelmed by these words.

The enemy is claiming to fight with the Holy Millennial Empire Fleet alone for some reason.

I don't know if it's true or not, but if it's true, you'll see a chance to win.

"You're going to fight only with the Holy Militia Fleet? Don't you have to cry about Japan?

As soon as I was about to lose, I cried and asked Japan for help, didn't I?

Why don't you declare to the whole world that you will ask Japan for help if you are about to lose? "

Akeil inspired and provoked the pride of the Holy Millennial Empire.

Even Japan could fight a sacred fleet of the Millennial Empire, even if it was overwhelming in numbers.

You should never lick, but you're not a desperate opponent.

If you do that, you won't complain from your native country if you retreat.

Dare to inspire the pride of the enemy to lead the fleet to survival.

Are you trying to provoke me? You idiots, the Imperial Fleet will not come out like you. ”

What?

Akeil is suspicious of unexplained behavior.

My country is a state-of-the-art ship and a mixed magic fleet flagship, and with only one Oriharkon-class magic battleship, Cosmo, I am saying that your opponent is enough.

Repeat, one of these ships will be enough to crush your fleet.

You will be fortunate to learn of the technical abilities of my sacred Millennial Empire.

Cosmo... this is the name of a super battleship that would kill you if you didn't surrender.

Remember, you're on the brink of death. "

Fleet Commander Akeil turns to Captain Elijah for an instant, unable to understand what he is saying.

“Captain Eliaga, I have no idea what the enemy is doing, but has he gone mad?”

"It's suicidal, no matter how powerful it is as a single ship, such as just one ship plunging into 10 of our fleets."

Moreover, even though the fleet is holding back, I can't believe the flagship is poking in. ”

Is the enemy being blamed too much by his boss?

They continue to argue without understanding the reasons for their actions, which are far removed from the common sense of the Gra Varcas Empire.

"If the enemy fleet joins the fight, we will send a message to the coward and the international community."

If one ship is really coming, this is a good opportunity!!! "

Fleet Commander Akeil gets the radio.

"This Gra Vulcan Imperial Fleet has been cleansed and entered by one ship!!"

No surrender.

Die with regret for misunderstanding the strength of our empire!!! "

You've gone too far.

It's an honor to be killed by us.

If we lose to this sharpest and ultra-battleship, we will have an excuse for the rest of our lives.

It would be nice to boast in the other world that you fought against my ship. "

Communication is cut off.

The Imperial fleet of Gra Varcas has begun preparations for a fleet showdown.

"Total Combat Placement, Total Combat Placement"

The voice of an inorganic female operator resounded on the bridge.

A bridge reminiscent of the future is reflected in a space where there are supposed to be no displays.

"Magic engine output stable, magic light spell emitting type 2-stage combustion cycle engine start"

Checks are carried out on each system.

"Armor Up System Abnormal"

"Main gun control system abnormal"

Guide magic light projectile magic power injection system abnormal

"No abnormalities in the guided magic light bullet control system"

"Magic power power conversion system is abnormal." Induced Radio Ready "

Together with the anomaly-free call order, the area displaying each system in front of the ship's captain's seat shines blue.

"The distance from the enemy is less than 100 kilometers."

Captain Eliza stretches across the ocean.

"Prepare for the 'Heavenly Fire'!!" Objective 3, enemy Battleship!! "

"Roger, anti-ship guidance magic light bullet" "Heavenly Fire" ", three shots ready for launch."

Magic power circuit open to the launch barrel, magic power charging to the core begins.

Magic type, electricity 1, sky 2, flame 3, explosion 4...

70%... 80%... 100%!!! "

The light point indicating the guided magic light bullet glows green when it is ready.

"With the anti-ship guided magic light bullet, this energy filling speed... what kind of output is it!!"

An induction magic light bullet that uses more magic power than a main gun or armor enhancement.

Standing beside the Captain, Tachyon shouts with surprise at the speed of filling.

"Energy refill complete!! Then enter target coordinates... input complete!!"

"Relative speed calculation started...... calculation completed"

The position, velocity, and relative velocity of the general enemy ship were entered.

"All systems abnormal, induction magic light bullets ready to fire!!!"

Captain Elaiza turns to Tachyon.

Are you sure you want to destroy the enemy, Commander Tachyon?

"Of course I am."

Eliza turned forward and spoke out loud.

"From now on, the historic battle will begin!! My Holy Millennial Empire descends a divine punishment on the foolish evil empire!!

Drop Heavenly Fire... to the devil!!! "

Heavenly Fire, fire!!!

KKYYYY!!!

A blue explosion occurred on the top of the guided magic light cylinder equipped with the magic battleship Cosmo, and a magic light bullet was fired with a high-pitched sound.

It has a core that holds magic power in its center, and the area around the core shines blue.

A blue glowing tail was drawn from under the core.

The Holy Millennial Empire called it the Heavenly Fire, and it ran up into the sky.
