In order not to attract anyone's attention, Zhou Hao took the eighteen most powerful disciples of the "Jingu Yufengryu", including Kanzaki Shogo, to an island in the southernmost tip of Japan.
This island located at the southernmost tip of Japan is called "Yukisen Island". The entire island covers an area of less than ten hectares. There is a small village on the island, and all the villagers make a living by fishing and hunting. However, the sea fish produced here are very popular in Japan.
The price is also very good, so the villagers on the island live a fulfilling and prosperous life, and the entire island is enveloped in an atmosphere of harmony and tranquility, just like a paradise.
In a temporarily rented village house, Zhou Hao, Kanzaki Shogo and others were preparing for this operation.
At this time, Zhou Hao was seen sitting in front of the table in the center, with a sea chart taken by satellite lying flat on the table. Kanzaki Shogo and another disciple of "Jingu Mikaru" named Yutaka Ishida were sitting on both sides behind Zhou Hao.
, and the rest of the gatekeepers were guarding outside.
Zhou Hao looked at the chart on the table attentively, and Ishida Yutaka said to him: "Sir, according to this chart taken by satellite, 'Penglai Island' is 428 nautical miles southwest of our 'Snow Fairy Island'
In order not to attract attention, we brought a ship disguised as an ordinary fishing boat. Its performance and speed are no less than those of conventional ships. Starting from the Snow Immortal Island, I believe we can enter Penglai in about ten hours.
The island's waters are gone."
The "Horai Island" mentioned by Ishida Yutaka is the island that appeared after the submarine earthquake and was suspected of hiding the "Jade Seal of the Nation". Since the island has not been named yet, and the previous traces are so mysterious, Zhou Hao and the others tentatively
Call it "Penglai Island".
Zhou Hao touched his chin and said, "Shunichi Tojo and his group have probably arrived at the 'Horai Island' by now."
"That should be the case. After all, they set off one day earlier than us." Kanzaki Shogo said: "But I don't think they can find that thing so easily. After all, the thing is hidden on the island. There is no one at all.
That’s for sure. Besides, even if the thing is really there, would it be left casually in a cave waiting for others to pick it up?”
Zhou Hao also smiled when he heard this: "What you said, Shogo, is not unreasonable, but just in case, I think we should rush over immediately to avoid being taken advantage of by Tojo Shunyi and his gang. Yutaka,
You go notify the other brothers and prepare to leave immediately."
"Hai!" Yutaka Ishida knelt on the ground and bowed deeply, then stood up and walked out to convey Zhou Hao's order.
So on the sea in the middle of the night, a boat that looked like an ordinary fishing boat left "Xuexian Island" and headed southwest at very fast speed.
In order to land in the best physical condition when they arrived at "Horai Island", Kanzaki Shogo and the others took turns resting on the ship. Zhou Hao also meditated like an old monk in one of the cabins, and the Qi in his body quietly and quickly
Running.
Although he has lost his previous memories, his martial arts skills and realm are still there. Even after that near-death experience, Zhou Hao's martial arts strength has improved a lot without realizing it.
At this moment, the moves and artistic conceptions of the "White Tiger Five Emperor Swords" and "Demon Ape's Four Unrivaled Locks" appeared in his mind, and there were also faintly mysterious images of cranes, giant deer, flying bears, etc. flashing through his mind.
"When have I ever practiced martial arts like this?" Zhou Hao asked himself in his mind: "What a magical martial arts! Such exquisite moves! What kind of martial arts have I practiced before that can have such power?"
?”
He meditated hard, trying to find memories about the past, but he still found nothing. The exquisite and mysterious moves became increasingly clear.
In this deep meditation, time seemed to pass very fast. Almost an instant later, Zhou Hao heard the sound of knocking on the door, and then Yutaka Ishida's voice came from outside: "Sir, we have entered
This is China’s territorial waters. Just in case, sir, please be prepared.”
Although Zhou Hao is Chinese, he now represents Kaoru Nanami's forces, which are considered foreign forces to Chinese officials. And China is very sensitive to foreign forces that trespass into its territorial waters. In order not to be caught by China's
The Navy discovered that this small ship, which looks like an ordinary fishing boat on the surface, is equipped with very advanced anti-radar equipment similar to a stealth fighter. When necessary, it can even emit wave frequencies used internally by the Chinese Navy and impersonate a Chinese Navy ship in a short period of time.
, to confuse the Chinese navy’s vision and hearing.
However, everything is unexpected, and in order to prepare for such an accident in advance, Kanzaki Shogo and others alerted all members on the ship after entering China's territorial waters, so as not to be caught off guard when an accident occurs.
Zhou Hao stood up and left the room, and saw Yutaka Ishida standing respectfully outside the door, so he asked: "Is Shogo in the cab now?"
"Yes, sir, senior brother, he is right above." Yutaka Ishida replied respectfully.
Zhou Hao nodded and went straight to the cab above. Sure enough, he saw Shogo Kanzaki inside, sitting there observing the radar on the ship. There were also two gatekeepers responsible for driving the ship to keep it in the correct position.
direction sailing.
Seeing Zhou Hao come in, Kanzaki Shogo quickly stood up and bowed: "Sir."
"You've always been here, thank you for your hard work." Zhou Hao said with a smile.
"This is my job, and it should be." Kanzaki Shogo said seriously.
Then, Zhou Hao also sat down in that position in the cab. Anyway, his physique was far incomparable. After meditating just once, even if he didn't sleep for the next few days and nights, it would not have any impact on him.
Not long after Zhou Hao sat down, one of the gatekeepers in charge of driving suddenly said: "Report, a ship was spotted in the northeast direction ahead. The ship speed is very high. It is probably a destroyer of the Chinese Navy!"
"Have we been discovered?" Zhou Hao frowned.
"Probably not." Kanzaki Shogo said: "They should have discovered our whereabouts, but they should not be targeting us. They may be regular patrols." Then he said to the two pilots: "Send them Chinese fishing boats."
signal."
The two pilots immediately turned on the communicator and lied to the Chinese Navy destroyer that they were fishermen from the Fujian area in very fluent Chinese. They even spoke with a thick Minnan accent. If Zhou Hao hadn't told them
If you know the basics, you might think that they are pure Fujian people.
The Chinese Navy also responded quickly, telling Zhou Hao and his crew that this was a military controlled zone and fishermen were no longer allowed to fish and hunt, and asked Zhou Hao and his crew to leave immediately.
Kanzaki Shogo looked at Zhou Hao: "Sir, what should we do?"
Zhou Hao knew that the other party was obviously deceived by him and thought that his boat was an ordinary fishing boat. But even so, if he did not listen to the warning and continued to move forward, he would probably be greeted by torpedoes or missiles. So Zhou Hao made a decisive decision: "
Turn around immediately and move around them from the front."
Following Zhou Hao's order, the ship immediately turned around and left, quickly out of the detection range of the Chinese warship, and then turned around, bypassing the warship and continuing towards "Penglai Island".
Ishida Yutaka said: "Sir, I have been to this sea area before. At that time, fishing and hunting were allowed here. Why has it suddenly become a military controlled area? How strange."
After hearing Yutaka Ishida's words, Zhou Hao raised his eyebrows and intuitively felt that this abnormal situation was related to the sudden appearance of "Penglai Island". He only heard him murmur to himself: "Is it possible that the Chinese military is also paying attention to 'Penglai Island'?
'?"
"If this is the case, it will be troublesome." Kanzaki Shogo said: "This is China's territorial waters. There is a lot of risk in our activities in this area. If the Chinese military also notices 'Horai Island', it will attack us.
The actions caused great constraints.”
"Even so, we can't give up!" Zhou Hao said resolutely: "This operation is of great importance. We can only succeed and not fail!"
"Hai!" Sensing the cold aura coming from Zhou Hao, Kanzaki Shogo and Ishida Yutaka both felt their hearts tremble and responded quickly.
But at this moment, one of the pilots said again: "Report, a Chinese warship has been spotted in the northwest direction ahead!"
"More?" Zhou Hao frowned: "How come there are so many Chinese navy deployed in this sea area?"
After a pause, he immediately gave the driver an order: "Go around them, don't let them find us!"
"Yes!" the driver responded and immediately adjusted the direction.
In this way, Zhou Hao's ship changed from a straight line to a zigzag route, greatly increasing the voyage and doubling the time it took. But what alarmed Zhou Hao and the others the most was that this trip
Along the way to "Penglai Island", we encountered three or four waves of Chinese navy, and the density of its navy was far beyond normal.
With great difficulty, they finally arrived at a place 20 nautical miles east of "Penglai Island" in the early morning. However, they could not move forward because the ship's radar detected a submarine lurking near "Penglai Island"!
Zhou Hao was very surprised by the ship's detection equipment, because it could even detect submarines lurking on the seabed. Everyone on the ship, including Zhou Hao, was sure that the submarine belonged to the Chinese Navy.
.
Because of the large scale of the submarine, it would be absolutely difficult for such a large target to escape the eyes of the Chinese warships along the way if it were Tojo Shunyi and the others.
