152 Chapter 105 Ocean Conflict_3
The middle-aged commander chuckled, "Throughout the history of our island nation, there have been countless incidents of subordinates overcoming their superiors, just like 81 years ago today, when our predecessors did the same thing in China's Beijing. That was the peak of our nation's history, and thinking back on it, I really do miss those times! As long as our starting point is right, and the country benefits in the end, naturally, no one will hold us accountable. Who knows, we might even become national heroes, just like our predecessors. Besides, this decision was made by me alone, it won't involve you, so don't worry."
While the two were conversing, a great deal of thick smoke suddenly emerged from the Helong, apparently the engine had been damaged and shut down, causing its speed to drop dramatically. The Fudao quickly accelerated and caught up, along with two other patrol boats, they surrounded the Helong. Then they activated the water cannons on the Fudao, pumping vast amounts of seawater into the Helong's hull, hastening its sinking.
In the sky, two F-15J fighters from the Japan Air Self-Defense Force were circling in flight, unconcerned with the ship pursuit on the sea surface. On their radar, two small points appeared, which were fighter jets coming from the Mainland with the intention to intercept and convince them to retreat. However, it would take the fighter jets over ten more minutes to arrive, and by then, the Taiwanese fishing boats should have already been expelled.
Unnoticed by the several parties, a white waterline was rapidly advancing on the sea surface, and above the waterline, a fighter jet was speeding forward. It was the Drone Avatar, controlled by Yan Fei.
The Drone Avatar advanced swiftly, managing to arrive from the distant waters outside Shanghai to the Diaoyu Islands in just over twenty minutes, showcasing the high speed advantage of a Level 4 drone. Moreover, it flew low over the sea the whole time, undetected by any radar device. With its 1000 kilometers Quantum Radar detection range, Yan Fei had long identified all the situations in the affected territorial waters.
In the scene of the incident, not only were there three Japanese patrol boats, one helicopter, and two F-15J fighters, but also in the sky 180 kilometers from the scene, there were two J-16 fighter jets from the Chinese military. The Quantum Radar not only detected these forces but also a submarine at the bottom of the sea.
This submarine was lurking about 400 meters deep in the sea, and judging from its shape, it appeared to be a Seawolf-class attack nuclear submarine from The United States of America. It was unclear when the nuclear submarine had lurked there, and it went undetected by the Japanese side, quietly observing the developments. However, the submarine didn't know that it had already been discovered by Yan Fei.
Although Yan Fei did not know the exact situation on the scene, with the Quantum Radar, he could already make out the general scenario: the Taiwanese fishing boat was about to be sunk by the Japanese patrol boats. To tell the truth, Yan Fei wasn't very fond of the Taiwanese. They were narrow-minded and self-important, wallowing in the glory of bygone days, and if it weren't for their own interests, they would not remember their identity as Chinese people. To them, the best outcome was to maintain the status quo, and they'd seek help from the Mainland only when in trouble.
Even though Yan Fei disliked the Taiwanese, he couldn't bear to see them bullied by the Japanese. It was akin to the reasoning that one might scold their own children, but become enraged if someone else were to strike them. Aside from this, Yan Fei could not ignore the opportunity to earn a significant amount of merit during this sortie, as these Japanese patrol boats presented an easy chance for more merit, and having benefited greatly from the Drone Upgrade, he naturally wanted the drone to upgrade again.

The past two chapters, from a different perspective, immediately showcased the main character's impressive skills. Indeed, the protagonist's intelligence has been consistent throughout the story, but due to the remarkably capable supporting characters, the protagonist seemed somewhat overshadowed. If you switch perspectives, viewing the protagonist from the opponents' angle, you'll realize how tactful and unpredictable his tactics are, and just how formidable his strength is.
