With three superpowers at his fingertips, he could dominate the 1970s.

Jiang Zhiyu went into the barracks and fell asleep immediately.

After a whole day of tossing and turning, the combined effects of her supernatural abilities and motion sickness left her feeling completely drained. She lost consciousness the moment her head hit the pillow.

What she didn't know was that things had already gotten out of hand outside.

The soldiers were excited all night long.

The news spread throughout the camp. Although no one had seen the thing clearly, the phrase "something big is coming in tonight" was enough to keep everyone awake at night. Shift after shift of sentries took turns, each person peering into the bay through binoculars, becoming more and more alert, and the more alert they became, the less they could sleep.

As dawn broke, they finally saw clearly.

The enormous thing just stood there, motionless.

With its jet-black hull, wide deck, and towering island superstructure, the ship occupies most of the view of the inner bay.

The sentry rubbed his eyes several times to make sure he wasn't seeing things, and then his hands started to tremble.

"My God...this is an aircraft carrier! It is...it is...right?"

The soldier next to him was also trembling.

"It should be...it must be...what else could it be but an aircraft carrier?"

The news spread like wildfire throughout the camp.

Which soldier wouldn't be excited to see this object? They all wanted to rush over and touch it immediately, but they were ordered to guard it and dared not move. They stood on the shore, their eyes practically popping out of their sockets.

...

Lu Zhenting was the first to calm down.

He stood on the dock for a long time, then began to deploy his troops.

"All offshore patrol boats must immediately cease operations; no vessel may approach the aircraft carrier without authorization."

"Yes!"

He turned around and glanced at the soldiers standing neatly behind him, then took a deep breath.

"First team, step forward! You will carry firearms, ropes, ladders, and radiation detectors. Probe the ship first. From top to bottom, from outside to inside, report any abnormalities immediately."

The eight men stood up straight and shouted in unison, "Yes!" Their voices trembled with barely suppressed excitement.

"Second team, step forward! Ship maintenance technicians and veteran naval captains, you are responsible for inspecting the ship's hatches, decks, and hull for damage and flooding. Pay special attention to the engine room and below the waterline."

"Yes!"

Lu Zhenting paused for a moment, then glanced at the other three people.

He winked at them.

The three men understood, took out blank confidentiality registration forms from their pockets, and boarded the ship.

This is the third group, specifically responsible for registering the identities of personnel boarding the ship and obtaining confidentiality agreements. Every person who goes aboard has their name, unit, rank, and contact range all recorded in black and white, so that anyone responsible can be held accountable for any mishaps.

After sending out the three teams, Lu Zhenting stood on the dock without moving, his eyes fixed on the direction of the aircraft carrier.

He knew last night that something would be coming in tonight, but the instructions only said "aircraft carrier entering the water," without revealing how it would get in or when it would arrive. He had assumed it would at least be towed by tugboats and escorted by warships, sailing in from Dongchongkou in a grand procession.

I never expected it to be like this.

He still can't figure out how such a large ship could have appeared out of nowhere in the bay after that huge wave last night.

He suppressed his shock and turned to walk towards the barracks.

We need to prepare quickly, otherwise the situation might be difficult to control once those researchers wake up.

...

It was indeed difficult to control.

The scientists, who had been working all night, began to emerge from their dormitories as dawn broke. Some were carrying teacups to the water room to fetch water when they looked up at the door and saw the enormous vessel anchored in the bay. They dropped their teacups with a clatter and rushed toward the aircraft carrier.

Hearing the commotion, the researchers came out to see what was happening. They threw down their bowls and chopsticks and ran out one after another.

The soldiers tried to stop them, but they couldn't.

It wasn't that they couldn't stop them, it was that they dared not forcefully stop them. These were all elderly researchers, national treasures, and even their own bodyguards didn't dare to lend a hand. They were too busy helping the elderly people run over there, so how could the soldiers dare to go up and stop them?

A group of white-haired old men stumbled and rushed to the shore, but when they got there, they didn't dare to go up to it. They stood on the dock, their eyes red with excitement, trembling.

Am I seeing things?

"Dude, that can't be real, right?"

"It's really true, it's all true!"

"My God... an aircraft carrier... an aircraft carrier..."

Some people started crying as they were talking.

Lu Zhenting watched these people from the shore, feeling both sorry for them and amused.

After all the checks were completed, radiation tests were normal, the ship's structure was intact, and the hatches could be opened, it was finally time to board the ship.

Lu Zhenting stood on the dock and shouted in a strong voice.

"Everyone, have breakfast before boarding!"

The response came in unison.

"I'm not eating anymore!"

"What's so good about breakfast! Let's get on the ship first!"

"I can go three days without eating!"

Lu Zhenting's lips twitched; knowing he couldn't stop it, he waved his hand.

"Go ahead, be careful, and don't touch anything you shouldn't."

Before he could finish speaking, the person had vanished.

A group of elderly scientists climbed the gangway using both hands and feet, and shakily reached the deck.

The first old professor to step onto the deck froze for a moment when his foot landed on the steel plate. He then slowly squatted down, touching the cold, rough steel plate with one hand, tears streaming down his face.

"I've got it... I really have it..."

Another elderly professor followed behind him, wearing thick glasses and with unsteady gait, being supported by two guards as he was brought aboard. The moment he stepped onto the deck, he trembled all over, his lips quivering for a long time before he suddenly burst into tears.

"We finally have our own aircraft carrier!"

The cries echoed across the empty deck, bringing tears to the eyes of the young soldiers nearby.

Another old scholar stood next to the island superstructure, reached out and touched the wall. It took him a while to come to his senses, and he nudged the person next to him.

"Old Liu, tell me the truth, is this what I was talking about for research?"

Which one?

"Take it apart and study it! Reverse engineer it!"

"Of course! What else would we do? Bring them back and worship them?"

"That's wonderful! What a waste of such a fine aircraft carrier..." The old scholar's voice choked again as he spoke, "But... we must be careful when we dismantle it, we can't damage this precious thing."

"Don't worry, I'm even more heartbroken than you are."

A group of old men were touching this and that on the deck, like children entering a candy store for the first time.

Even the soldiers standing guard nearby couldn't control their expressions; they couldn't suppress the urge to smile.

...

After explaining the boarding procedures and safety regulations to his deputy, Lu Zhenting turned and headed towards the communications room.

He needs to make a call right away.

In Kyoto, they've been waiting all night.

The moment the call connected, a noisy sound came from the receiver, clearly indicating that a group of people were gathered around the phone waiting.

The Kyoto operator's voice trembled with tension.

"Sandu'ao? Is this Sandu'ao? How is it?"

Lu Zhenting took a deep breath and said, word by word.

"Reporting, sir, the aircraft carrier has been launched."

There was a sudden silence on the other end of the phone.

There was silence for two or three seconds.

Then Gao Lao's voice came through the receiver, carrying obvious uncertainty.

"What did you say? Say it again."

Lu Zhenting raised his voice by three decibels.

"Reporting, sir, the aircraft carrier has been launched!"

"Okay! I heard you!"

Old Gao's voice was trembling.

The phone hangs up.

Old Gao put down the receiver, turned around, looked at the eager eyes behind him, and said softly, "The aircraft carrier has entered the water."

Then he slowly looked at the portrait of his old leader and respectfully gave a military salute.

"Old leader, did you hear that? The aircraft carrier has been launched."
