Tokyo Detective

Chapter 437 Three-Star Lieutenant General. Sudden Death

A giant white whale burst from the black waves, its already battered head slamming into the 3000-ton patrol ship once more. The force was so great that the ship swayed, and two mercenaries who had fired the shots accidentally fell into the sea.

The beluga whale let out a mournful roar, its blood flowing like a river from repeated impacts and numerous gunshot wounds. Fortunately, apart from heavy machine guns, ordinary weapons could not penetrate its blubber layer; only machine guns could damage its muscles and even its internal organs.

Soon another whale surfaced, shot and howling. Seeing that nearly ten of its offspring had died or been injured, the beluga whale, enraged, sank back into the sea without hesitation.

James, who was directing operations from the deck, quickly shouted.

"Quickly shoot the other whales, and use sonar to report the beluga whale's movements. We can't let it escape."

The Immortals have learned about the white whale's situation; if they can anger it, it will fight to the death.

Beluga whales migrate twice a year from Antarctica to the tropics, so if you can't catch them today, the next migration won't be for another six months, and by then it's questionable whether they will still be taking this route.

James guessed correctly. A huge wave rose up on the left side of the bow, and a beluga whale more than 40 meters long leaped out of the sea and crashed into the hull. Its weight of nearly 300 pounds slammed onto the deck, and even the bow of the ship let out a metallic wail as it began to sink violently.

"Stay calm, stay calm, he can't sink our ship."

James's body swayed violently. If he hadn't been secured to the railing with his buckle, he might have ended up like the unfortunate men who had fallen into the water.

"Hold on, don't sink."

At this point, nearly half of the bow of the ship was submerged by seawater. Many mercenaries clung tightly to whatever they could to keep themselves steady, but people still fell into the water from time to time.

In less than two seconds, the bow of the boat rose again amidst the beluga whale's despair, revealing the entire body of this enormous creature to humans.

Blood kept flowing from the skin pierced by the metal railing, staining most of the deck red.

James unbuttoned his shirt and walked step by step toward the powerless white whale, meeting the eyes that had once filled the ocean sailors with immense fear.

"You lost, ocean white disaster."

The beluga whale tried to struggle, but this leap was its last stand, and it was powerless to resist any further.

James touched the whale's skin, his eyes filled with fervor.

"Did you know that your body contains a treasure we need? Thirty years ago, we were fortunate enough to obtain your muscle tissue and discovered that the myoglobin in it had mutated, which could be of great help in curing myocardial infarction and stroke. Most importantly, it's your lifespan that far exceeds that of your kind, thanks to your mutated body organs, unlike the sleeper sharks that rely on low temperatures and little movement to live long lives."

The little giant, known as Titan, walked over.

"Boss, after we slaughter this beast, could you give me some of the ambergris? It's the ambergris of a legendary monster, it's definitely very valuable."

"Of course, everyone gets a share. By the way, where did Selena go?"

Before James could finish speaking, the entire ship suddenly shook violently, and then they witnessed the stern being mostly destroyed by an explosion, with seawater rushing into the warship.

Where did the explosion come from?

The next second, the beluga whale used the swaying of the ship to press its body against the distracted human.

“Ah, no.”

James, now a meat patty, was unable to make a sound. The others were also shocked by the sudden turn of events; they could sense that the patrol ship was sinking.

The remaining 10 or so mercenaries were in a panic.

"what's the situation?"

"Run! Get the lifeboats!"

"What about the beluga whale?"

"What time is it now? Who has time to care about a beast?"

Just as the little giant named Titan arrived at the stern to lower the lifeboat, he was greeted by an enlarged fist, and behind the fist was a naked man wearing a hood.

"boom"

With his skull shattered, the little giant fell to the bottom of the sea like a kite with a broken string.

The person who came was Naoki Hanyu. The commotion was caused by him detonating a torpedo under the hull.

He didn't know the origins of these people or their purpose in whaling; all he needed to know was that they had attacked him.

Naoki Hanyu walked on the swaying deck as if it were flat ground, and even gave the panicked mercenaries a cruel smile.

"I knew I came to the right place. Look what I found: more than 10 red names and 3 black-red names."

[Ding! Intentional homicide, 6-star Sin level]

By this time, everyone had been killed, and only a small part of the ship was still exposed on the surface of the sea, while the rest had sunk to the bottom of the sea. The swirling currents it created had no effect on Naoki Hanyu.

He is now standing in front of the beluga whale, looking directly into its eyes.

"It's been a long time. You don't look like you're doing very well."

The beluga whale didn't respond, but just stared at Naoki Hanyu, as if it recognized who he was. After all, in all the years, only one human had dared to swim with a pod of whales in a storm.

As Naoki Hanyu touched the beluga whale's skin, he felt that this whale was quite intelligent, and he could try to see if he could increase the completion rate of the top-level title, Legendary Hunter.

"White whale, I saved you, so you owe me a favor, and you should repay it."

"."

The beluga whale still did not respond, but as the seawater submerged one-third of its body, it regained a considerable amount of strength.

Naoki Hanyu flashed a sunny smile.

"Now fight me. I need to defeat you legendary beings."

"???"

"If you don't say anything, I'll take that as a yes."

Naoki Hanyu instantly transformed into a state of complete muscle control, his beastly aura causing nearby fish to flee in terror.

The next second, the beluga whale seemed to roll its eyes at the humans in front of it, or perhaps it did nothing at all. It simply slapped its tail against the surface of the water, and its entire body returned to the sea. The startled whales around its leader quickly circled back.

Naoki Hanyu shouted as soon as he saw the whale leave.

"Don't go! Fight me! I'm so weak. Or you can just admit defeat."

The beluga whale gave the shouting humans a deep look before leading its pod into the sea and disappearing from sight.

[Ding! You have completed the advanced title "Friend of the Giant Beasts" and gained the friendship of the white whale.]

[Friend of Giants (Advanced): Possesses the ability to make non-human creatures feel affection towards you. Spirit +10]

[Title Reward: MH-60R "Knight Eagle" Shipborne Helicopter]

[The American Navy's most advanced multi-mission shipborne helicopter is capable of anti-submarine warfare, anti-surface warfare, intelligence reconnaissance, search and rescue, and network node deployment.]

Deeply integrated into naval operational networks (such as the Aegis system)

arms
[Equipped with 2 Mk 54 lightweight torpedoes, maximum depth 1000 meters. A total of 6 torpedoes.]

Equipped with 4 AGM-114 Hellfire missiles. A total of 12 missiles.

[GAU-21 12.7mm heavy machine gun, 10000 rounds of ammunition]

ALE-47 chaff/flare launcher

Directional Infrared Countermeasures System

Naoki Hanyu was a little happy to see the title reward.

"Now we can complete the configuration for the Naoki number."

A destroyer without the Seahawk helicopter is indeed lacking, for example, in terms of missile accuracy and reconnaissance range. The Apache is ultimately an army-grade armed helicopter, which is incompatible with the warship's systems and cannot be used for anti-ship operations. Now Naoki Hanyu can say that his destroyers have the exact same configuration as America's.

[Ding! Congratulations, host, for defeating the legendary sea monster and causing it to automatically concede defeat.]

[Legendary Hunter: Defeat three legendary creatures (2/3)]

"."

Naoki Hanyu was a little confused. Could this even be considered a valid point?

In other words, the beluga whale actually understood what he was saying, but it was too lazy to pay attention and so it automatically gave up and left.

"As expected of a legendary monster."

Soon, Naoki Hanyu returned to the yacht, which was still barely able to start, and took Ivanka back to Hawaii. The birthday celebration was over, the only downside being the millions of dollars in repair costs.

Atlanta, the capital of Georgia, is also the largest city in southeastern America.

In an upscale bar, a man in his fifties was having fun with a woman in her thirties. The man was none other than Michael Anser, a three-star lieutenant general who had retired early.

He had originally hoped to be promoted to four-star general before his actual retirement, but unfortunately, all his dreams were shattered.

"Damn you, Heaven's Punishment!"

As the older white man's partner for the past two weeks, the woman naturally knew what was going on, so she hugged him and comforted him.

"Stop thinking about those upsetting things and live in the present."

"Ah."

Just as Mike Anser was about to enjoy his time, a 60-year-old man suddenly shouted at him.

"Look who this is, isn't he the former commander stationed in Japan, the guy who killed more than 200 Koreans?"

McAnthers was furious when his sore spot was exposed, especially since the visitor was one of his arch-enemies, former Rear Admiral America, with whom he had worked on business in Japan before his retirement.

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

“I’m not talking nonsense. It was your recklessness that killed more than 200 soldiers, some of whom had worked under me.”

The two retired generals almost came to blows, which scared the bar owner so much that he rushed over to break them up. Even though the bar was controlled by the local gang, the owner still tried not to offend the two generals.

Unbeknownst to Michael Anser, there was another person in the bar watching him intently.
.
The next morning at breakfast, Michael Anser woke up in bed with the woman from the previous night lying next to him.

The old general rubbed his aching back.

"I'm getting old."

Half a month later, most of his energy and spirit had been drained away, so he was no longer as tough on people.

After getting dressed and putting on his water boots, Michael Anser took his fishing hook and went to the lake to fish.

Although he is retired, his savings over the years are enough to buy a large house of several thousand square meters in the suburbs of Atlanta, with a beautiful lake in front of the house.

And so, as he looked at the lake, MacAnthers calmed down. He recalled his various experiences in Japan: the monster, the sunken destroyer, the dead and wounded soldiers. In the end, MacAnthers found peace.

"Let bygones be bygones; a new life has just begun."

Just as MacAnser was reflecting on this, the fishing rod moved.

"A fish has taken the bait, and it's quite big."

As Michel Annsher tried his best to pull the "big fish" up, a tremendous force came from the bottom of the lake, and the emptied creature was immediately pulled into the lake.

"What's going on? What's going on?"

In a panic, Mike Anser tried to swim to the shore, but a hand grabbed his calf and made him disappear into the lake.

A few minutes later, MacAnser's pale body floated to the surface, his face contorted in terror, foam spilling from his mouth and nose, his pupils dilated.

The former lieutenant general remained there until the woman inside the house noticed and called the police.
