"Regardless of the strength of their weapons or whether the Federation fleet was completely wiped out, the combined combat power of our three nations' warships is something they can hardly stop."
Lucat shook his head expressionlessly: "No."
"Even if we have a large number of warships, our numbers will no longer be an advantage once the enemy possesses weapons that we cannot even imagine."
"Their weapons have become more powerful, so their warships have probably been strengthened as well."
"So I think... when we encounter their warships at sea, there will be no way to avoid them."
"After all that, are you suggesting we turn back?" Clemento's sharp gaze pierced Lucate's eyes, his anger rising within him.
Lucat stood ramrod straight, then bowed deeply to him and said:
"Yes, Marshal Clemento."
"This is my...last suggestion. I hope you can believe me and prevent us from ending up like this..."
Before he could finish speaking, Clemento suddenly stepped forward, grabbed Lucate by the collar, and roared through gritted teeth:
"Bastard! Do you know how it felt to be held captive on the deck by the Yan people that night after you left, watching my soldiers have their heads chopped off one by one by those damned Yan people!"
"I can't resist! I can only watch as my soldiers, who have followed me for so many years, die before my eyes!"
"Their blood was everywhere, their bodies were thrown into the sea like garbage, and there was nothing I could do! Those damned Yan people threw me into the cabin like a dog and made me go back to my country on that blood-soaked ship!"
"You think this is the end?! I'm lucky to have survived?! No! This is just the beginning of a nightmare!"
"We lacked food and fresh water. On our way back, we killed each other, and even..."
Clemento trembled violently, his eyes turning bloodshot. He gasped for breath and then said angrily:
"This is what the Yan Kingdom people did to us!!"
You'll never understand!
"And now!"
"Listen up!"
"Don't even think about leaving!"
"I don't care what kind of fighting power those Yan Kingdom bastards have! This time! I, Clemento! I'll risk my life! I will crush them all!"
"I'm going to kill them all! Leave no one alive! Slaughter them all!!"
Lucat calmly gazed at the grotesque, distorted face, and after a moment of silence, he slowly spoke:
"Okay, I understand, Marshal Clemento."
Clemento shoved him hard and roared, "Remember! We are one team! Heed my orders! This time, we will only win!"
"good."
“Go back! Do what you’re supposed to do!” Clemento turned around, trying to calm his anger.
"Um."
Lucat calmly agreed and quickly returned to the Lightning.
After returning to the ship, he looked up at the sky.
The sky grew increasingly dark.
Night is about to fall.
