"If it weren't for the protection provided by the Eastern Kingdom's Grand Fortune, it wouldn't have been as simple as just suffering minor injuries."

Fang Zong spoke while touching his shiny bald head.

He had already experienced the overwhelming power of a nation's fortune in North Korea. North Korea has a population of 51 million. Because it has historically been a country under the jurisdiction of Dongguo, and he is a respected nobleman of Dongguo, after being weakened, North Korea can at most gather the strength of 5 million people to attack him.

The Philippines has a population of 108 million. If the lightning generated by it were to strike directly, it could easily slit his throat. However, due to the terrain, the lightning would be weakened when passing through the territorial waters, so it could only exert a maximum of one-fifth of its power, which is more than 20 million people.

He was much tougher than he was in North Korea, and thought he could handle it. Little did he expect that after the lightning broke through the protection that the Eastern Kingdom's national fortune had given him, it still made him vomit blood and suffer damage to his internal organs...

"That's not right!" Fang Zong suddenly realized.

The Philippines has a population of 108 million.

However, even in the Eastern Kingdom, the official population is less than the actual number. In the underdeveloped Philippines, there are even more undocumented immigrants!

"They say it's 108 million, but it could very well reach 150 million, or even 200 million!"

Fang Zong muttered something, then sat cross-legged on the sea near the island, letting the lightning wash over his body.

No need to think too much about it. In short, he's not currently on Philippine soil, but in Philippine territorial waters. The lightning is half as strong as it is on land, and can only fiercely attack the silver-clad red robe's defenses. Forget about breaking through his defenses, he can't even tear apart the twenty-meter-long red cloak.

His body glowed with silver light. He shook his neck and pulled a large fish out of the sea. He scaled and skinned it, then used his power to protect it from being electrocuted by lightning. He then took out some seasonings from the small world of earthfire and dipped it in the water to eat.

Leisurely, carefree, and then... "The mighty power of our nation's thunder..." The Sea-Overturning Witch Sheila widened her beautiful eyes and murmured softly.

Old Wang and Old Meng exchanged a glance and couldn't help but laugh. Old Meng even scanned Sheila's slender figure with his old eyes like laser beams, "Big breasts, big butt..." Old Meng chuckled and suggested, "You're a good girl, fertile enough. How about becoming my apprentice's wife?"

“Fang…Zong…!!!” Sheila roared suddenly.

This is simply outrageous! Fang Zong, the suit-wearing thug from the East, actually used the attack power of a national treasure to grill fish.

Sheila felt as if the Philippines, a populous nation, had suddenly lost all its prestige and dignity. Her beautiful face turned ashen, her teeth clenched, and a deep blue light appeared in her palms. Suddenly, huge waves hundreds of feet high rose from the sea beneath her feet.

"You should think carefully, you sea-overturning witch," Old Wang said ominously.

Old Meng snorted, "You attacked Xiao Zong first, and when Xiao Zong came to seek justice, you plotted to kill him. Now you've lost more than you gained, and you, the Sea-Overturning Witch Sheila, are going to take action yourself? Fine, very well!" Old Meng repeated "fine" many times, then asked Old Wang, "If she takes action, can I wipe out the entire Philippines, and our Eastern Kingdom won't have to worry about being targeted by other countries?"

"Of course, when it comes to relations between countries, it's all about 'reason'. At least in the last few decades, they've been very reasonable."

Old Wang responded, "Besides Xiao Zong's Dragon Valley School, many sects are also expanding, especially Bird Hermit's Heavenly Water Palace... Bird Hermit has suggested many times that the world has changed, and those who have made contributions should be rewarded accordingly, such as granting land to the people. Old Meng, you know that the land in our Eastern Kingdom is all under a shared system and cannot be divided up. So I think we can let the children go to Philublican to play, and they can be granted land wherever they conquer. What do you think?"

"Of course, that's great. The power of the Philippines' national transport system is no longer a threat. As long as we take the lead, all the neighboring countries will be eager to get a share."

Old Meng spoke threatening words, but Sheila knew they were all true. A powerful expert at the Transformation of All Beings level was so angry that he staggered backward.

"The country is not strong enough, not strong enough!" she cried out in anguish, spitting out a mouthful of blood that shot thousands of meters into the air. The stench of the sea mixed with the stench of blood, as if the ocean was experiencing a rain of crimson droplets.

Fang Zong noticed the crimson color over there, smiled slightly when he looked over, and asked Sheila, "Are you going to accept defeat or not?"

"No!" Sheila said, her face full of reluctance.

"Alright, let's watch."

Fang Zong suddenly reached out, grabbing the sky with both hands, and the ethereal lightning seemed to be tangible as he grasped it in his hands.

The Philippines' national fortune was attacking him, and he actively tried to absorb the opponent's power, causing the notification sounds to increase more than three times in frequency...

"Ding Dang! Congratulations, Summoner, you have been attacked by the Great Fortune of the Philippines and touched the defense of the Great Fortune of the Philippines, dealing +8000 damage!"

"Double kill! Congratulations to the summoner for initiating an attack on the defenses of the Philippines' Great Fortune, causing counter-damage when the opponent attacks, damage +!"

"Triblekill! Congratulations to the Summoner for breaking through the outer defenses of the Philippines' national fortune and gaining access to the national treasure trove..."

The surrounding islands suddenly trembled, and the sea surged with enormous waves. The once calm azure sea, shrouded in dark clouds and thunder, was suddenly tinged with a deep, dark red.

From above, you can see the seabed beginning to crack, with deep underwater volcanoes bringing scorching heat that boils the nearby seawater!

"Help! Earthquake!"

"Underwater volcano eruption..."

"Island, island, the island is sinking!"

When the defenses of a nation's destiny are breached, the nation's fortune weakens, and without the protection of its destiny, all sorts of natural disasters will follow.

The Sea-Overturning Witch Sheila didn't care about mere natural disasters; a powerful being like her could live well anywhere. But humans have attachments, and she couldn't avoid them either… "No!" Sheila cried out in alarm, questioning Fang Zong, "You said war should keep ordinary people away!"

"That's my reasoning, but sometimes..."

Fang Zong's voice was utterly cold: "I love the world, but I love my countrymen even more; I love my countrymen, but I love my family even more. You should know that compared to the peaceful lives of my compatriots, I can completely disregard the lives of everyone in your country, and I can be utterly unreasonable!"

“You…” Sheila lowered her head resignedly and asked Fang Zong, “What exactly do you want to do?”

"Hand over Yasuo and Orochimaru."

“Okay!” Sheila agreed through gritted teeth.

"And I need compensation, just a tiny bit of compensation."

Fang Zong suddenly burst into laughter, and at that moment, the magnificent and enormous national treasure trove of Philippines appeared before his eyes.
