Reincarnated with the Country System

Chapter 278: The Devil Whales Emerge and The Third Fleet Part II



"Admiral, these monsters are coming towards us," a crew member reported.

"Maintain formation and prepare for engagement," Harrington commanded.

As the aircraft soared overhead, the pilots reported back, relaying information about the monsters' movements and behaviour. The Devil Whales were aggressive, lunging toward the ships with alarming speed, their massive bodies creating waves that rocked the vessels.

"Admiral, they're closing in!" Mitchell warned, her eyes fixed on the monitors. "We need to engage before they reach striking distance."

"All right, initiate defensive measures!" Harrington ordered. "Fire at will!"

The fleet erupted into action as guns and missile systems were activated.

The fleet shifted into a staggered line, with the Musashi, the pride of the fleet, at the forefront, flanked by destroyers and cruisers. The smaller vessels positioned themselves to provide cover, their anti-aircraft guns trained in the sky while their main guns were aimed at the approaching monsters.

The crew of Battleship Musashi worked with precision, loading shells into the turrets as they prepared for the first volley.

The Musashi's main guns roared to life, unleashing a barrage of shells that arced through the air, striking the water with explosive force. The shockwaves rippled across the surface, sending plumes of spray into the air. The destroyers followed suit, their guns barking in unison, creating a symphony of destruction.

On the other hand, The Neptunes released their depth charges, which plummeted into the water with a series of splashes.

The charges sank rapidly, and the pilots pulled up to a safe altitude, their eyes glued to the ocean below. Moments later, the sea erupted in a series of explosions as the depth charges detonated, sending shockwaves through the water. The explosions were so powerful that several devil whales were killed and injured, their dark blood staining the ocean and turning the once-green waters a deep, ominous black.

"Direct hits! The charges are effective!" one of the pilots exclaimed. "We've disrupted their formation!"

The fleet also continued to unleash a relentless barrage of gunfire, the Musashi's main guns booming as they targeted the nearest Devil Whales. The combination of aerial and naval firepower created a chaotic symphony of destruction, with the sea churning violently from the impacts.

"Admiral, we have multiple breaches in their formation!" Mitchell reported, her voice rising with excitement.

"Good! Shift the fleet to a staggered line ahead of the remaining monsters. We need to create a crossfire," Harrington commanded, his mind racing with tactical possibilities. "Destroyers, move to flank the remaining Devil Whales. Engage with torpedoes at maximum range!"

The destroyers swiftly repositioned themselves, their crews working in unison to prepare the torpedo launchers. As the ships manoeuvred, the Devil Whales, sensing the threat, began to dive and change direction, but it was too late. The destroyers unleashed their torpedoes, the projectiles slicing through the water with deadly accuracy.

"Impact in three... two... one!" a crew member shouted, and the ocean erupted once more as the torpedoes struck true, tearing into the sides of the massive creatures. The water churned violently, and the cries of the wounded monsters echoed across the battlefield.

"Admiral, we've taken out several monsters!" Mitchell reported. "But there are still too many left. We need to keep the pressure on!"

"Understood. All ships, maintain fire! Focus on the remaining Devil Whales and ensure we don't allow them to regroup," Harrington ordered.

The fleet's guns continued to roar, and the Neptunes circled above, providing aerial support. The pilots coordinated their attacks, diving low to drop more depth charges while keeping a watchful eye on the movements of the remaining monsters.

"Admiral, we have a large group of Devil Whales approaching from the starboard side!" a lookout shouted, pointing toward the horizon where the dark shapes of the creatures surged through the water.

"Reinforce the starboard flank! All ships, prepare to engage!" Harrington commanded, his heart racing as he realized the threat was more significant than anticipated.

The Independence shifted its positions. The destroyers moved in closer, their crews readying their anti-monster weaponry.

The fleet unleashed a devastating volley. Shells screamed through the air, striking the water with explosive force, sending geysers of spray into the sky. The Devil Whales, caught in the open, were battered by the relentless barrage, their massive bodies thrashing in pain.

"Admiral, we're seeing significant damage to their ranks!" Mitchell reported. "But they're still coming!"

"Keep firing!" Harrington replied, his eyes fixed on the chaos unfolding before him.

As the battle raged on, the Neptunes continued to drop depth charges, creating a deadly perimeter around the fleet.

"Admiral, we have a group of Devil Whales attempting to flank us from the rear!" a crew member warned.

"Reposition the fleet! Bring the rear destroyers to intercept!" Harrington ordered.

The destroyers quickly adjusted their course, moving to intercept the incoming monsters. As they closed in, they unleashed a barrage of torpedoes, striking the creatures with deadly precision. The water erupted in a series of explosions.

"Admiral, we're making progress! The remaining Devil Whales are starting to scatter!" Mitchell exclaimed, her voice filled with excitement.

"Good! Pursue and eliminate any that attempt to escape!" Harrington commanded, his determination unwavering.

The fleet pressed forward, the ships moving in unison as they hunted down the remaining monsters. The Neptunes continued to provide aerial support.

As the last of the Devil Whales fell beneath the relentless assault, Harrington allowed himself a moment of relief.

"All ships, report status!" he ordered, his voice steady as he took stock of the situation.

One by one, the ships relayed their conditions.

"Admiral, we've successfully neutralized the Devil Whales in our vicinity," Mitchell reported, her voice filled with pride. "The sea is clear."

An unknown place, a mysterious figure loomed, shrouded in darkness and the flickering light from torches cast eerie shadows that danced along the stone walls. At the center of this space, a magic orb pulsed with a ghostly glow, illuminating the face of the man who observed it.

His eyes, as dark as the void itself, were fixed intently on the swirling images within the orb. A sinister smile crept across his lips, revealing sharp, protruding teeth that glinted in the dim light. The expression was both unsettling and predatory, a reflection of the malevolence that radiated from him.
