He turned around and looked at the group of people behind him.
Every warrior on the ship was on high alert, their eyes focused on the Red Earth Continent ahead, their bodies leaning forward slightly, as if ready to meet a sudden and fierce battle at any moment.
The same light flickered in everyone's eyes—a burning anticipation and a desire for battle.
"Everyone ready?"
Jin An's voice rang out on the ship, short and powerful.
As his voice fell, the atmosphere on the ship immediately tensed up.
Every warrior knew that they had crossed the final obstacle, and the Red Earth Continent in front of them was the last challenge.
Whether it was the enemy or the terrain, everything would be decided here.
At this moment, the commander of the ship stepped forward, holding a battle plan tightly in his hand.
It was a precise plan that had been scrutinized countless times, but at this moment, the commander's expression did not relax at all. His brow was slightly furrowed, and he had obviously realized that this battle would be more complex and dangerous than they had expected.
"Lord Jin An, the defense line of the Red Earth Continent ahead has begun to appear, and their fleet is gathering.
The enemy's firepower has also begun to adjust, and we must be prepared."
The commander's voice revealed a hint of tension, but more of it was calmness and decisiveness.
Jin An nodded slightly, his eyes still not leaving the Red Earth Continent.
He knew this land too well. Almost every war and conquest was closely related to this continent. And today's battle would be an unusual beginning.
"Strengthen the firepower deployment and prepare for a fierce battle."
Jin An's voice was still low, but it carried an undeniable domineering aura.
The warriors nodded one after another and immediately began to take action.
Artillery loading, ammunition inspection, and warship dispatch were all proceeding in an orderly manner.
Even the most calm and composed warriors could not hide the tension and excitement on their faces at this moment.
They all knew that this would be a battle that could be recorded in history—a battle to destroy all obstacles.
With the slight vibration of the ship, a gust of cold wind blew, and the canvas of the warship fluttered in the wind.
Everyone stood on the deck, and all their eyes could not help but turn to the land in the distance that was about to greet them.
"Lord Jin An, our fleet is in position."
An assistant walked up to Jin An, his expression carrying a bit of caution and anticipation.
Jin An nodded, a slight smile appearing on the corner of his mouth.
"Be prepared to deal with everything.
Today, we only have one goal—to break through all enemies and directly penetrate into the heart of the Red Earth Continent."
Before he finished speaking, the Red Earth Continent in the distance seemed to feel this aura, and the wind on the sea suddenly became more violent.
The waves crashed violently against the warships, as if the entire sea was turbulent and uneasy for the upcoming conflict.
Jin An's figure still stood upright, his eyes like sharp blades, staring intently at the land that was about to be set foot on.
"Can you see it?"
Jin An asked in a low voice, his voice almost swallowed by the wind.
"We can see it, it's close at hand."
A warrior replied, his tone revealing a hint of heaviness and firmness.
Everyone on the ship knew that the Red Earth Continent in front of them was a huge fortress, and also a mountain that carried countless enemies and dangers.
And they were the ones who were going to break through this mountain and point directly at the heart of this continent.
"The prologue to the war has begun."
A trace of complex emotion flashed in Jin An's eyes, but it quickly dissipated.
He took a deep breath and turned to walk towards the command platform, with the commander and everyone else following closely behind.
At this moment, the atmosphere on the entire warship reached its peak.
All the soldiers had completely awakened from their relaxed state, and all the weapons were precisely in place in the final inspection.
The bow of the warship began to steadily point towards the Red Earth Continent that was close at hand. With Jin An's order, the horn of battle would resound across this sea area.
"Set off!"
Jin An ordered in a low voice, his voice resounding like thunder throughout the ship.
The entire fleet was like an arrow, breaking through the waves from the sea and heading straight for the depths of the Red Earth Continent.
......
Above the Red Earth Continent, the sky over Pangaea was shrouded in thick clouds, revealing a depressing and solemn atmosphere.
Inside the palace, the figures of the new Five Elders were seated on high chairs. Their expressions were stern, and their eyes flashed with a determination and unwavering will for victory.
Everyone's aura was like an unshakable rock, and the shadows cast on the wide ground added a touch of coldness to the huge palace.
The strategic map spread out on the table was pointed at by dozens of golden shining scepters, and each red circle and mark represented their deployment direction.
One of the Five Elders opened his mouth in a low voice:
"The fleet has been assembled, and the vanguard has set off yesterday.
The target is Elbaf."
His voice carried a knife-like coldness, and the surrounding staff and soldiers couldn't help but straighten their backs.
Another of the Five Elders scanned the generals present, his tone as heavy as a bell:
"Remember, Elbaf is only the first step.
Jin An must not be allowed to continue to grow.
He is not only a threat to our rule, but also a blasphemy against the entire order."
His palm pressed on a spot on the map, his fingertips forcefully swiping across it, like cutting the lifeline of the sea,
"His forces must be uprooted."
Immediately, an order was issued:
"All troops, listen to the order, the main force will set off immediately to support the vanguard and advance at full speed to the Elbaf sea area!"
The sound was transmitted to the entire Red Earth Continent through the microphone.
Outside the palace, the ready-to-go troops began to move in an orderly manner. One after another, huge warships sailed out of the port, loaded with soldiers, weapons, supplies, and new weapons designed by Vegapunk.
The Celestial Dragons' special warships were also hidden in the team, and their gorgeous decorations and cold aura showed the majesty of the rulers.
The atmosphere in Pangaea was extremely tense, and everyone held their breath, carefully carrying out their orders, and did not dare to slack off in the slightest.
In this atmosphere, even the slightest sound of footsteps would seem extremely clear.
At this time, the new Five Elders' eyes were full of coldness. They sat on the peak of power, but did not show any relaxation.
On the contrary, the Five Elders with their brows tightly locked were obviously more cautious than ever.
"Be sure to ensure that every warship and every troop obeys orders without the slightest error,"
The Five Elders with the highest scepter said in a deep voice, his voice low but not without majesty,
"We cannot afford to lose this battle.
Remember, if Elbaf cannot be resolved quickly, Jin An will become the second Joy Boy, and we will once again face irreparable disaster."
At the same time, the sound of Morgans' airship engine faintly came from the distant sky.
His news forces were also chasing after this battle of the century. His huge camera lens was aimed at the mighty fleet on the Red Earth Continent, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised as he muttered to himself:
"Big news, big news... Let the world see what a real war is."
