Jonathan took off the microphone and murmured: "An enemy with superior intelligence..."
"Commander!" The major in charge of the report knocked on the door and came in, saluting: "King Hilmer and all the nobles of the Kingdom of Torrance have arrived at the port."
"Very good." Jonathan nodded and replied, flipping through the information at hand: "Now there are thirteen participating countries."
"..." The major was silent for a moment, then carefully considered his words and said, "King Hilmer seems to have something to say to you. He wants to see the commander this time."
"Oh?" Jonathan was stunned, touched the beard on his lips, and said, "Bring King Hilmer here."
"Yes!" The major saluted and left.
Jonathan shook his head helplessly. He had already fully experienced the bad tempers of the kings and nobles of the franchising countries in the past few days.
He could guess with his butt what he wanted to say to him. It was nothing more than complaining about the bumpiness of the warship, the long sailing time, the decline in the quality of life, and asking the navy to provide better services.
Sure enough, when King Hilmer saw Lieutenant General Jonathan's face, he cursed him with all his heart. Jonathan, with a smile on his face, pushed back the furious King Hilmer.
The major next to him sighed: "What a disaster..."
"Haha" Jonathan smiled carelessly: "This kind of thing is very common."
"Anyway, I didn't listen to anything he just said."
"W-it's not okay to do this..." Sweat dripped from the major's forehead.
"You have to understand." Jonathan leaned his head back and rested his head on his arms: "Our mission is to escort the kings and nobles of the participating countries to leave the North Sea, not to provide them with services."
"Besides, they are not my direct superiors."
"The most important thing right now is that the Dawn Pirates are very likely to target us."
"D-Dawn Pirates!?" The major was shocked. In recent years, the Navy Headquarters has suffered countless losses at the hands of the Dawn Pirates.
"Keep your voice down." Jonathan said nonchalantly: "When we received the mission to arrive in the North Sea and escort the king and nobles, we should have thought that we might face the rising "Four Emperors" - the Dawn Pirates. group. "
"B-but..." The major looked a little uneasy.
"Don't tell it." Jonathan warned: "This will affect the morale of the navy and make the sailors uneasy."
"yes."
"It would be okay if the Dawn Pirates don't show up, but if we encounter one..." Jonathan straightened up and his expression became serious: "Major, go and urge the warships to prepare for sailing now."
"Yes!" the major immediately took the order: "But, half of the members of the participating countries have not arrived at the port, Commander..."
Jonathan smiled: "I am the commander-in-chief here, and I will be responsible for all the consequences. Go ahead and make preparations."
"...Yes!" The major saluted solemnly, and then left the commander's office.
Jonathan took out a chess board and placed white and black chess pieces on it.
First, place your own white chess pieces, including one bishop chess piece, two knight chess pieces, and several pawn chess pieces, plus the king chess piece, which symbolizes great wealth.
The royal families and nobles of these participating countries have accumulated wealth for hundreds of years, and in recent months they have plundered the savings of their own people. Together they form an immeasurable huge wealth, which will undoubtedly attract the attention of many pirate groups.
There are also several local pirate groups in the North Sea whose strength should not be underestimated. Although they will not directly attack the navy's large fleet, there is a high probability that they will attack the small fleets that have separated to welcome the royal families and nobles of various countries.
As long as a frigate of a participating country is successfully robbed, the assets of dozens of generations of that group of nobles will allow the pirates to gain wealth and freedom for the rest of their lives.
After placing the navy's camp, Jonathan took out the chess pieces that symbolized the pirates. The king, queen, chariot, bishop, knight, and pawns were arranged densely. The huge gap in strength that could be seen at a glance made Jonathan couldn't help but wonder. Sighed.
Staring at the situation on the chessboard, Jonathan said to himself: "We cannot consider the support of the Navy Headquarters. We cannot count on the naval combat power of the Beihai Branch, nor can we rely on the entourage and escorts from various countries.

Counting..."
Jonathan lowered his gaze, with a trace of reluctance in his eyes. Then he took out his phone and called his beloved wife: "Hello? Is this Jessica?"
"Jonathan?" The noise in the kitchen came from Jessica's end. The sounds of knives chopping cutting boards, spatulas stirring, and hot oil sizzling made Jonathan's wrinkles relax.
"I'm busy right now..." Jessica explained while angrily scolding her chef: "If you have time to chat, why not cook quickly to provide energy for the sailors fighting on the front line!"
"Hahaha..." Jonathan smiled and said, "You are still as strict as ever."
"Um?"
Jonathan said reassuringly, "That makes me feel relieved."
"..." Jessica, who had a strong temper, softened her expression and asked softly: "The headquarters is sending you to the North Sea. The temperature there is lower, and I don't know if you can take care of yourself."
"Oh, I'm the commander." Jonathan said with a smile, "My life must be pretty good."
"Oh?" Jessica narrowed her eyes and asked, "Is there a personal maid over there who is responsible for taking care of your food, sleep, and accommodation?"
"H-how is this possible..." Some cold sweat ran down Jonathan's temples.
"Just kidding!" Jessica smiled and said, "Those kings and nobles from the participating countries must have very bad tempers and characters, and they must have made you suffer a lot."
"Hahaha..." Jonathan was moved by the considerate Jessica and said, "Those rotten borers, just ignore them."
"That's good." Jessica changed the topic: "Have you eaten all the cauliflower, carrots and other vegetables?"
"Uh..." Jonathan was speechless.
"Put aside those dishes you don't like again?" Jessica sighed: "What is the second rule of the Eighth Branch?"
Jonathan hurriedly defended: "Today, there are no carrots and cauliflower today!"
"oh?"
"Really!" Jonathan said seriously: "I ate all the cabbage and spinach."
"Very good, if you don't eat vegetables, you will get scurvy." Jessica lowered her voice: "Don't make me worry."
"I know."
"So, why did you call me? Just to chat with me?"
"I want to hear my wife's voice."
"They're already an old couple..." Jessica curled her lips. The chef next to her pricked up her ears to eavesdrop, and found that the chef's voice was full of happiness.
"Bang" Jessica raised the spoon in her hand and hit the eavesdropping chef on the head.
Jessica asked: "Then when will you return to the G8 base?"
"Well -" Jonathan thought carefully for a moment and said, "My mission will be over once I finish escorting the king of the participating countries out of the North Sea."
"..." Jessica closed her lips several times and said, "The sailors at G8 Base also miss their beloved Commander very much."
Finally, she warned: "You must come back, Jonathan."
"Yeah." Jonathan replied confidently: "Of course!"
The call between the two was disconnected, and Jessica covered her mouth, trying not to cry. After Jonathan left for Beihai, she had too much care and longing in her heart.
She was very aware of the situation in the North Sea, and the naval branches of each branch were also very secretive about the Dawn Pirates, so she did not increase the psychological burden on Jonathan during the phone call just now.
"Don't worry! Miss Jessica, the commander is so smart, he will definitely complete the task perfectly!" The chefs around him comforted the chef whose shoulders were shaking.
"..." Jessica's shoulders suddenly stopped shaking, she raised her head and stared at them fiercely.
"Hey!" The chefs let out a startled cry like a hamster meeting a house cat.
"You have time to talk, so why not get to work!"
"Yes!" The chefs immediately stepped up their work and felt relieved.
"It won't work if you don't work hard..." Jonathan smiled bitterly, stretched out, and said with fighting spirit in his eyes: "Come on, Dawn Pirates!"
…
After Eric's pre-war mobilization, the citizens of the Kingdom of China did not emerge.

Resistance.
"call--"
The sea breeze blows in the face. Eric has dispatched many troops this time, and there are also many high-level combat forces accompanying the army. At this moment, they are sailing to the North Sea at full speed on ships.
Eric asked: "How does it feel to visit your old place again?"
"My mood, age, and... the people accompanying me have all changed." Reiju smiled, pursed her lips and said, "Why, you want to take advantage of this trip to capture me?" ◥...▃▂
"..." Eric didn't expect Reiju to say that, and was stunned.
"Haha..." Reijiu chuckled, "You are so innocent."
"You're not that old either, so don't put on an expression that sees the world through." Eric curled his lips.
"Eric, you have completed half of your agreement." Reiju lowered her head: "According to the current practices of the World Government, Beihai has been abandoned by them. The remaining work is to wipe out those large and small people in Beihai. Pirates..."
"There are also those non-member countries." Eric added: "These countries can exist in the North Sea surrounded by powerful enemies, and their military strength is definitely not weak."
"The large tracts of territory left by the alliance countries will also attract these countries to fight. In the next few years, the North Sea may be like a dynamite barrel... Even if these countries can be eliminated, with our current total military strength, we will not be able to hold it. The whole North Sea."
"It will also lead to the elongation of the battle line and excessive dispersion of combat power, giving the World Government the opportunity to defeat us one by one."
"..." Reijiu looked at Eric for a while and smiled: "You are actually not dazzled by the huge benefits of dominating the entire Beihai."
"What on earth do you think of me?" Eric rolled his eyes.
Reiju smiled and said nothing.
"Now, would it be better for me to collect part of the deposit first?" Eric poked his head.
"Huh?" Reijiu, who had always been calm and generous, had a blush on her face.
"Bah!" Eric kissed her with lightning speed, and then commented, "It smells like cigarettes."
"..." Reiju's tongue moved around subconsciously, as if tasting the taste left on her lips.
"Don't smoke anymore."
Looking at Eric for a second or two, Reiju lowered her head and agreed softly: "...Yeah."
The two continued chatting for a while, and seeing that the atmosphere had eased from the awkward situation, Eric decided to say goodbye and leave.
Around the corner, a figure suddenly grabbed Eric by the collar and pulled him over.
"……Well"
Cold, soft lips pressed against her mouth, staying there for two or three seconds, and then Esdeath moved away: "What does it smell like?"
"Peppermint..." Eric stuttered in reply, and since she asked, there was a good chance she was there at the time.
Esdeath immediately put Eric's head under his arm and dragged him forcefully back to the room.
"It's still daytime..."
Esdeath said bluntly: "Your night has been booked."
"..."
…
"Darling!" Mijiu ran towards Eric happily, her gorgeous costumes reflecting her stunning appearance: "I miss you so much!"
"Miku, I miss you too." Eric smiled and opened his arms to catch Miku, who was not slowing down at all.
"Woo--" Miku, who threw herself into Eric's arms, closed her eyes, pursed her lips, and made a gesture common to women all over the world.
The people around them tilted their heads in unison, and only a few people continued to look at the two of them indifferently.
Eric kissed her quickly, and Miku opened her eyes and puffed up her cheeks in dissatisfaction:
"Really, give me another passionate kiss, Darling——!"
"Let's talk about it when no one is around..." Eric touched his lower back with lingering fear.
"Okay~" Mijiu was quite obedient, and then looked at Eric's face carefully: "Darling, why are you looking a little pale?"
"It's your misunderstanding." Eric changed the subject and asked with concern: "Thanks to you for the hard work during this period of tour."
"It's not hard." Mijiu said with a happy smile: "Not only can I sing my favorite songs, but I can also help people reach the destination.

Ling, is this the best thing? "
Then, she expressed regret: "Unfortunately, there are too many male listeners. It would be great if there were only female listeners..."
"This is impossible."
During this period, Meijiu held touring solo concerts in nine franchised countries, using angels' abilities and beautiful singing voices to calm the emotionally disturbed people, and quickly accumulated a large number of fans.
Miku's companions include Aka Hitomi, Jeanne d'Arc, and Porchi. While they are responsible for Miku's safety, they also take into account their ability to escape.
"Thank you for your hard work." Eric nodded towards the three of them.
"It's not hard." Chitong nodded in response, and then was quickly pulled away by his sister Heitong. The two of them didn't know what topic they were discussing.
Bolqi looked proud. She could now stand alone and was even responsible for the four people's retreat route.
Joan of Arc shrugged, with a mocking expression on her face, and said, "Brainwashing those ignorant people is a unique comedy to me."
Before anyone could react, Jeanne continued to speak: "This time, are we going to burn those royal families and nobles to death?"
Eric smiled and said: "We have to catch them..."
"That `s a deal."
Prince Bores, who was responsible for receiving Eric, suggested: "Your Majesty Eric, why not stay in our country to rest tonight..."
Eric smiled and declined, "Thank you, no."
Then he looked down at the time and said, "Those royal families and nobles may flee Beihai at any time, and we are racing against time now."
"When we return from victory, we will come and appreciate the scenery of the Fosak Kingdom."
Prince Bores lowered his head and said, "I hereby wish His Majesty Eric success."
