Chapter 1466: Minister Kaze Fufeng's Troubles! (Two-in-One)
Giant World, Canberra Continent.
Interdimensional Strategy Attack Defense and Logistics Support Committee Headquarters Building.
Outside.
Star Realm Soldiers in blue military uniforms stood guard with guns at the main gate and various other locations.
Inside.
Men and women in suits and leather shoes, with elite temperaments, were busy handling affairs concerning various worlds.
Aside from the Claymore World which was currently being conquered.
The Nuclear World, Ninja World, and Beast God World were all key areas of focus.
In the Staff Department's small meeting room, Kaze Fufeng was listening to the report from his subordinates.
This was also his daily work.
He had to understand everything related to 'safety' and 'intelligence' in each world.
This was because administration, finance, judiciary, and foreign affairs were not under his jurisdiction.
However, it was estimated that the 'military' domain would be added in the future.
He would lead the Star Realm Army when conquering new worlds in the future, responsible for early-stage intelligence gathering and combat command.
This made Minister Kaze Fufeng feel refreshed recently, and his work enthusiasm greatly increased.
What man wouldn't like their power to grow?
Especially military power!
"Next is the Beast God World. The basic framework for the new army composed of ten thousand soldiers from the Patria Republic has been established, and they are currently familiarizing themselves with the weapons and equipment of the Rakshasa Nation in the Nuclear World."
"At the same time, under President Kain's 'Voluntary Pseudo-God Transformation' decree, the number of the Quasi-Divine Soldier Unit has exceeded the five hundred mark."
Minister Feng smiled and said, "Didn't they say that the 'Beastification Loss of Control' result is unavoidable for Divine Soldier Mimicry? It seems that even the biggest hidden danger cannot stop people's desire for strength."
The official sitting by the meeting table replied in a deep voice:
"President Kain publicly stated that Researcher Elein from the Biochemical Research Institute has developed a 'White Serum' that can eliminate the 'Divine Soldier Mimicry Bloodline Factor' from the body at any time."
"So, as long as the 'White Serum' is injected before or after 'Beastification', they can turn back into humans. This is also why many people are willing to become 'Divine Soldier Mimicry'."
Minister Feng was somewhat astonished: "There's 'White Serum' already? As expected of the Biochemical Research Institute. This means the Patria United States will have more and more 'Divine Soldier Mimicry'."
"Yes, that is also President Kain's goal," the official nodded. "However, according to the intelligence we've gathered, the 'Divine Soldier Mimicry Manufacturing Technology' consumes energy from Dream Ore."
"The more Dream Energy is injected, the stronger the 'Divine Soldier Mimicry' power, but how much the body can withstand varies from person to person."
"The key is that it's still uncertain if 'Dream Ore' is a renewable resource. The Patria Republic's existing inventory is less than a hundred tons."
"And the mineable resources underground, based on the preliminary exploration by the Mineral Resources Department, are calculated not to exceed ten thousand tons."
"Of course, this is just the result for the Patria Continent; it's unclear if there is any on the other Gracia Continent."
"Moreover, it has been discovered that Dream Ore can be used in many fields, and can even serve as a pure energy source to power machinery."
"In addition, the Biochemical Research Institute revealed that the cost of one tube of 'Divine Soldier Mimicry White Serum' is currently no less than one million Berry. Even if the technology matures in the future, the price cannot be lower than one hundred thousand Berry."
Minister Feng nodded in understanding.
This meant that the Patria Republic would find it difficult to manufacture too many 'Divine Soldier Mimicry'.
It was estimated that the number would ultimately be maintained at around a thousand people.
However, a thousand warriors comparable to Animal System Dangerous Species Devil Fruit Users.
For the Beast God World, this was already enormous.
After all, they could also use various weapons and equipment, and even learn other supernatural abilities.
What Kaze Fufeng was thinking was that if needed in the future, the Divine Soldier Mimicry from the Patria Republic could also be borrowed and used.
He didn't believe Kain would dare to refuse the request of an Otherworld Strategy Committee Member.
"What about the Ninja World?"
Hearing Minister Feng's inquiry, another female official immediately replied.
"It's still the problem of nuclear radiation pollution. The Star Realm Army believes the Underworld Demons are a greater threat, and nuclear radiation can be purified and handled afterwards; at worst, they can abandon the 'Demon Country' area."
"But the Loulan Government and Shinobi Sect believe that all Demon Gods have been successfully eliminated, and the subsequent Demon Army can be slowly encircled and suppressed until the Gate of the Underworld is sealed with a Barrier Jutsu. There's no need to continue investing in nuclear weapons and expanding the area of radiation pollution."
"In addition, the Qin Empire from the Empire Arms World has expressed to us their hope that their Imperial Prince Qin Su can evacuate the Ninja World as soon as possible."
The last sentence made Minister Feng not know whether to laugh or cry.
However, he could understand.
Qin Su was accidentally involved in the battle to begin with, and having fought until now, he had done his utmost.
Indeed, there was no reason for him to continue helping the Ninja World resist the demons.
"Then let him go back."
Although the 'Supreme Imperial Arms' were very useful.
After all, they hadn't issued a deployment order in the name of the World Government.
Moreover, Hashirama Senju, Madara Uchiha, Ay, and others were present.
It wouldn't be the case that they couldn't hold on just because the 'Supreme Imperial Arms' were gone.
It was just that he somewhat didn't understand why the higher-ups agreed to return the 'Supreme Imperial Arms' to Qin Su, and to the Qin Empire?
"Yes."
The female official nodded and noted down the Minister's order.
Immediately after, she heard Minister Feng say, "Regarding the use of nuclear weapons, the Loulan Government's opinion takes priority. After all, the Ninja World is their world."
In his opinion, the Ninja World people themselves weren't even anxious and felt there was no need to use nuclear weapons against the demons. What were the Star Realm Army insisting on?
Did they think they had too many nuclear warheads in stock?
"Yes." The female official agreed again.
"How is the Nuclear World?" Minister Feng looked at another official.
"Please see."
That official clicked open the Video Den Den Mushi placed in front of him.
The next second.
The Video Den Den Mushi distributed at different positions on the meeting table simultaneously projected light into the air, jointly constructing a Holographic Virtual Image.
The main screen was divided into two parts: one was the World Map of the Nuclear World, and the other was an overhead map of Java Island.
"Unfortunately, the Void Swarm has broken through the Java Country Army's defense line and entered West Java Province and East Java Province from Central Java Province. The front line is less than a hundred kilometers from its capital, Jakarta."
"Now, the President and high-ranking officials from various departments of Java Country have already evacuated by plane to Banda Aceh, the westernmost point of Sumatra Island."
Minister Feng and everyone present immediately fell silent.
Because the fall of the entire Java Island meant nearly a hundred million people...
"However, with the full support of the naval and air forces from Rakshasa Nation, Lighthouse, Yuangu, Tianzhu, Iron Tower, and other nations, a blockade defense line has been barely completed along the edge of Java Island."
"In addition, Army Lieutenant General Ludwig has led the Tri-Force of the Seventh Army Group and stationed in the Nuclear Weapon World Third Special Zone, taking over the highest command authority of various nations against the Void Swarm in the name of the Star Realm Army."
"Next, they will launch large-scale bombing and counterattacks against the Insectoids occupied areas of Java Island until the Insectoids scale is reduced to an acceptable level, and at the same time push the front line back to the 'Bug Gate'."
Minister Feng and the others listened to the report while looking at the footage in the Holographic Virtual Image.
It must be said, the current situation on Java Island was unbearable to look at, with rampant Bug Beasts everywhere.
Warrior Insect Soldiers with claws like scythes, all over the mountains and plains.
Tank Beetles that burrowed and were stealthy, spitting flames.
War Scorpions with tough carapaces, whose tails could emit pulse rays.
Emerald Flying Insects forming groups in the air, whistling and flying past...
Although the Allied Forces composed of various Nuclear World nations barely blocked the Insectoids impact, the number of casualties was rising at a rate of a hundred people per day.
Of course, under the carpet bombing of various modern rocket launchers, missiles, and airplanes, the Insectoids casualties were in the tens of thousands.
But for the Void Insectoids, who had massive quantities of food and occupied multiple active volcanoes as energy sources, they would not lack military strength for at least several years.
It wasn't that the Nuclear World nations hadn't tried to bomb the 'Bug Gate' and the first volcanic base camp occupied by the Insectoids, the Overturned Boat Volcano, with long-range missiles.
There was definitely an effect, but the consequences were also severe.
The Insectoids would use the large Plasma Insectoids from various places to continuously launch ultra-long-range high-energy plasma counterattacks towards the direction from which the missiles attacked, resulting in various countries recently having their missile launch bases destroyed.
Moreover, as time passed, they found that the shooting accuracy of these plasma cannons was getting higher and higher.
They even started attacking the capital cities, military port cities, and industrial cities of various countries, causing unimaginable huge destruction and casualties.
Now both sides were shooting at each other across the great sea and sky.
This caused major cities in various countries to sound air raid sirens almost every few days, telling citizens to quickly hide in air raid shelters for refuge.
However, the Nuclear World nations were not stupid either.
Since the Plasma Insectoids could counterattack ground-based platforms along the trajectory.
Then they would use air-based and sea-based platforms, that is, launch missiles from airplanes, submarines, and warships.
This way, they could leave the original position after shooting, no longer afraid of the plasma counter-shooting.
But the Plasma Insectoids ultra-long-range bombardment of major cities was more troublesome.
They could only prioritize bombing areas where Plasma Insectoids were found.
Eliminate these overly dangerous Insectoids units as much as possible.
But the Insectoids side's consciousness seemed to have also noticed that humans were wary of Plasma Insectoids.
They started increasing its production quantity and adjusted the abilities of these Plasma Insectoids according to actual needs.
Some Plasma Insectoids extended their range to the maximum, responsible for bombing cities in various countries.
Some Plasma Insectoids increased their firing frequency, or created dense electric nets, specifically to intercept incoming missiles and airplanes.
So now, the high-ranking officials of the Nuclear World nations have already started discussing with Lieutenant General Ludwig about saturation bombing the entire Java Island with hydrogen bombs.
But some also said that there might still be surviving populace on the island.
It's best to drop nuclear weapons on the main areas where the Insectoids are gathered.
As for the peripheral Insectoids, it should still be left to the army unit for encirclement and suppression.
Finally, Minister Feng and the others understood the recent situation in the Nuclear World.
"It seems the situation is still within a controllable range..."
"Now the problem is how to use nuclear weapons against Java Island, is it a full deployment, or targeted strikes."
That official closed the Holographic Virtual Image on the tabletop and replied:
"Yes, Minister, Army Lieutenant General Ludwig has contacted us to seek instructions."
Minister Feng thought for a moment and finally gave the decision.
"The Void Insectoids large-scale invasion is a global crisis. We cannot be hesitant just because there are populace whose existence cannot be confirmed in the war zone; that is irresponsible towards the majority of the populace."
"Tell Army Lieutenant General Ludwig, the nuclear bomb warehouse here will be fully open to him. As long as it's used against the Insectoids, it can be transferred at any time!"
Now, the nuclear warheads from various Nuclear World nations have long since been completely migrated to the Giant World side, under the full jurisdiction of the Star Realm Army Headquarters.
At the same time, the World Government prohibits the Nuclear World nations from privately manufacturing and possessing nuclear weapons again.
So, to conduct a nuclear strike, one must obtain the permission of the World Government.
This is also the biggest reason why Rakshasa Nation, Lighthouse, Iron Tower, and other nations have been hesitant to use nuclear bombs.
They really don't have any; even if they hide one or two, they wouldn't dare to use them.
The Insectoids threat and the World Government's accountability, they clearly think the latter is more terrifying.
"Yes!"
The official responsible for monitoring the Nuclear World situation quickly agreed.
Immediately without waiting for the meeting to adjourn, he immediately stood up and ran out of the meeting room.
He hoped to tell Army Lieutenant General Ludwig the order as soon as possible.
Perhaps this way, the Insectoids invasion can be resolved quickly, and fewer people will die.
Clearly, this official belonged to the type among the Sea Star People who did not discriminate against Otherworlders.
In his eyes, Nuclear World people were also human.
Unfortunately, judging from the overall atmosphere at the moment, they belonged to the minority.
Minister Feng glanced at the back view of this official, named Zhongli, who came from the former Flower Country, as he hurried away, and didn't blame him either.
Immediately after, he picked up the thermos cup in front of him and took a sip of green tea produced on 'Flower Island'.
"Let's talk about the Claymore World."
"Yes!"
"According to the latest news, Vice Admiral Guts has defeated Priscilla and solved the Destroyer with the help of Jonin Uchiha Koku."
"In addition, Jonin Aburame Shikuro has persuaded Riful and the 'Black Twins' and is on the way back to the Stargate Camp with them."
An official immediately spoke up and replied, then added: "Jonin Aburame Shikuro mentioned that he used the statement that the World Government has the ability to resurrect her lover Dauf to attract Riful to agree to submission."
"Heh—, having the ability is one thing, but why should we help her?"
Minister Feng sneered with disdain.
Riful's value lies in her being a powerful Awakened Being, and the child in her belly who is said to naturally possess Abyssal One strength.
This is considered a naturally born Awakened Being conceived by two Awakened Beings, so the Biochemical Research Institute is very interested in him.
And because of this, it is destined that Riful and her child will 'live' in Impel Down for a long time in the future.
In this situation, where would the opportunity come from for the World Government to help resurrect an ordinary Awakened Being with decent strength?
However, Jonin Aburame Shikuro's approach indeed played a very good appeasement role.
"This way, the targets on this Claymore Island have finally been recovered almost completely. Next, we need to turn our attention to that Warfire Continent."
Minister Feng looked at the official responsible for the report and said in a deep voice.
"The Star Realm Army has dispatched four RC-135 reconnaissance aircraft. Once they arrive over the continent, they will start mapping the continent."
"Rubel, the Roman Empire spy captured at the Claymore Organization Headquarters, is also under interrogation."
"At the same time, three Hidden Mist Ninja Squads have departed aboard V-22 Osprey transport aircraft."
"One of them is responsible for infiltration into the Carolingian Kingdom Capital, and the other two are responsible for infiltration into the Roman Empire Capital, focusing on collecting intelligence on Yoma Dragons and Dragon Descendants."
Minister Feng nodded from time to time, very satisfied with his subordinates' work efficiency.
"It's just that..."
Minister Feng frowned: "What's wrong?"
That male official quickly replied: "According to the intelligence we have gathered, the Dragon Descendants' strength is comparable to the so-called Abyssal Ones. Then the Yoma Dragon is estimated to be even stronger, and might even be stronger than Priscilla, the Destroyer, and them. We..."
Minister Feng immediately understood his meaning.
Now, after the series of operations on Claymore Island, a relatively clear judgment has been made regarding the strength of these Demons, Awakened Beings, and Abyssal Ones.
Abyssal Ones are actually stronger Awakened Beings, roughly comparable to the military's Commodore rank combat power.
Don't look at it as just a Commodore, but it is still a Flag Officers level existence, and their strength is generally much stronger than the Senior Colonels below.
And 'Super Abyssal Ones' like Priscilla and the Destroyer, as referred to by the Claymore Organization.
Are even comparable to Rear Admiral to Vice Admiral rank combat power.
Don't look at Vice Admiral Guts and Jonin Uchiha Koku solving them in a short time.
But it was actually a coincidence; the abilities of the two somewhat countered the opponent.
If replaced with other Vice Admirals or Jonin, it's really not certain they could smoothly complete the mission.
Take Priscilla for example.
If unable to suppress her from the mental aspect, replace her with a pure Great Swordsman Vice Admiral, and even if they hacked for three days and three nights, they might not be able to subdue her.
The Destroyer was the same. Amaterasu was simply its natural enemy!
Then, as the bloodline source of all Dragon Descendants, Demons, and Awakened Beings, what strength would the Yoma Dragon itself have?
If that is the case.
Then relying solely on the Otherworld Strategy Committee's existing combat power is highly likely to be difficult to suppress the Yoma Dragon.
Of course, they could also let Vice Admiral Guts, Uchiha Koku, plus other Nue Form Kabaneri Warriors and Jonin try.
But for Kaze Fufeng and even the entire Otherworld Strategy Committee.
What is pursued now for conquering the Claymore World is absolute certainty.
Otherwise, once a problem occurs, causing the Five Elders to change their minds,
And unwilling to hand over the early military command authority to them, it would be too difficult.
But they also don't want to ask the main battle force for help.
This caused Minister Feng to fall into deep thought, his fingers tapped back and forth on the tabletop.
The atmosphere on the scene quickly quieted down.
The officials present subconsciously paid attention to the strength and frequency of their breathing.
Minister Feng didn't pay attention to them, musing to himself in his heart.
Besides the military, where else should I look for experts?

"And the mineable resources underground, based on the preliminary exploration by the Mineral Resources Department, are calculated not to exceed ten thousand tons."
"Of course, this is just the result for the Patria Continent; it's unclear if there is any on the other Gracia Continent."
"Moreover, it has been discovered that Dream Ore can be used in many fields, and can even serve as a pure energy source to power machinery."

It must be said, the current situation on Java Island was unbearable to look at, with rampant Bug Beasts everywhere.
Warrior Insect Soldiers with claws like scythes, all over the mountains and plains.
Tank Beetles that burrowed and were stealthy, spitting flames.
War Scorpions with tough carapaces, whose tails could emit pulse rays.

"Let's talk about the Claymore World."

Now, after the series of operations on Claymore Island, a relatively clear judgment has been made regarding the strength of these Demons, Awakened Beings, and Abyssal Ones.
Abyssal Ones are actually stronger Awakened Beings, roughly comparable to the military's Commodore rank combat power.
Don't look at it as just a Commodore, but it is still a Flag Officers level existence, and their strength is generally much stronger than the Senior Colonels below.
And 'Super Abyssal Ones' like Priscilla and the Destroyer, as referred to by the Claymore Organization.
Are even comparable to Rear Admiral to Vice Admiral rank combat power.
Don't look at Vice Admiral Guts and Jonin Uchiha Koku solving them in a short time.
But it was actually a coincidence; the abilities of the two somewhat countered the opponent.
If replaced with other Vice Admirals or Jonin, it's really not certain they could smoothly complete the mission.
Take Priscilla for example.
If unable to suppress her from the mental aspect, replace her with a pure Great Swordsman Vice Admiral, and even if they hacked for three days and three nights, they might not be able to subdue her.
The Destroyer was the same. Amaterasu was simply its natural enemy!
Then, as the bloodline source of all Dragon Descendants, Demons, and Awakened Beings, what strength would the Yoma Dragon itself have?
If that is the case.
Then relying solely on the Otherworld Strategy Committee's existing combat power is highly likely to be difficult to suppress the Yoma Dragon.
Of course, they could also let Vice Admiral Guts, Uchiha Koku, plus other Nue Form Kabaneri Warriors and Jonin try.
But for Kaze Fufeng and even the entire Otherworld Strategy Committee.
What is pursued now for conquering the Claymore World is absolute certainty.
Otherwise, once a problem occurs, causing the Five Elders to change their minds,
And unwilling to hand over the early military command authority to them, it would be too difficult.
But they also don't want to ask the main battle force for help.
This caused Minister Feng to fall into deep thought, his fingers tapped back and forth on the tabletop.
The atmosphere on the scene quickly quieted down.
The officials present subconsciously paid attention to the strength and frequency of their breathing.
Minister Feng didn't pay attention to them, musing to himself in his heart.
Besides the military, where else should I look for experts?
