Chapter 458: Kong Ming VS Eren!
Otherworld Strategy Committee.
Ever since the Small Stargate was upgraded to a Medium Star Gate and the World Government's War of Conquest against the Titan World fully commenced, they had shifted from a frontline Department to a second-line one.
After all, with an Army of such a large Scale, they truly didn't have the Authority to command it; that responsibility fell solely to the Command Department.
But this didn't mean they had nothing to do.
While they couldn't directly intervene in the War, they showed no slack or relaxation in gathering Intelligence from the enemy World.
Under the command of the Otherworld Strategy Committee, a large number of Men in Black belonging to Cipher Pol took advantage of the Star Gate's increased size, using various Means or vehicles to travel to Various Places in the Titan World.
Although their Language and Writing were different, they could observe, ponder, and think, as they were all Professional Agents.
The Mission of these Men in Black was to use Visual Den Den Mushi to transmit the development levels of the various countries back to the Command Hall in the Homeland, and then find a way to locate their Capital and Infiltrate it.
In addition to this.
Chairman Fernandez, Vice Chairman Kong Ming, and others also organized a batch of Linguists to begin Research on the Marleyan Language of the Titan World.
While they couldn't expect quick results, they definitely had to get started.
There were currently two key problems before them.
First.
Although their side now had Redfield and Muzan Kibutsuji, who could understand the enemy's thoughts, they couldn't make the enemy understand what their own side wanted to express.
This communication barrier was too great and would certainly affect the subsequent Conquest and development, so a solution had to be found.
But after thinking for so long, they truly had no clue.
Unless they could find that Paramecia System Language Fruit, then they would have a useful bilingual translator on their side, but where could they find it at this juncture?
Second.
It was still related to Redfield and the others, specifically the Arrest Mission against Eren Yeager that they were currently undertaking. This matter was primarily the responsibility of the Otherworld Strategy Committee.
But it had already been five days, and the pursuit was still ongoing, with no Hope of capturing the person in a short Time.
"Chairman, Lucci mentioned in his Report that although the 'Red Count's' Ability can determine Eren Yeager's escape Direction, due to the Distance of half a Planet between the two sides and the not-so-large Gap in Airplane Sailing Speed, it is difficult to catch up to the opponent in a short Time."
Vice Chairman Gabriel briefly explained the Situation.
The Monoplane that Redfield and the other two were riding was certainly faster than the Biplane Eren and his group were riding, but this difference was not enough to close the Distance of half a Planet in a short Time.
Although the two sides were indeed slowly approaching each other, the World Government did not want to drag this out with Eren for a year or two.
It must be known.
During this process, The Rumbling was continuous, and Eren could also summon Wall Titans from other places at any Time.
"Damn it, this Eren Yeager truly utilizes the Future Sight Ability to the extreme!"
Vice Chairman Maron Wifried, sitting across from Vice Chairman Gabriel, said resentfully.
"Scholars from the Academy of Science calculated based on the Flight Speed of the Biplane and our Monoplane that even if 'Red Count' and his group can stay close behind them, it will take at least one or two months to close the Distance between the two sides to about a thousand kilometers."
"Furthermore, we have reason to suspect that Eren Yeager has already prepared replacement Airplanes full of Gasoline in various countries, while our Monoplane here requires 'Red Count' and his group to find a way to replenish fuel..."
Vice Chairman Hobson Samuel sighed deeply, looking at the Document in his hand filled with various mathematical formulas.
It must be said.
Although this Eren Yeager was an Otherworlder, they had to admit that this kid was a Genius, and he had given them a vivid lesson, the subject being how to play with the Future Sight Ability.
Compared to this, their side's Kagaya Ubuyashiki's Future Sight paled in comparison.
Every use Consumed Lifespan, and it could only be used a few times a year. Moreover, activating the Ability in the World required Members of the Demon Slayer Corps as a Medium.
Just as the people present were discussing amongst themselves with worried expressions, Chairman Fernandez, who was sitting in the main Position, noticed that Kong Ming was deep in thought, his Feather Fan not even moving. He immediately asked.
"Kong Ming, do you have any ideas?"
Hearing the sound, the four Vice Chairmen immediately fell silent, focusing their Gaze on Kong Ming. The latter didn't mind, fanning himself with his Feather Fan while saying thoughtfully.
"I'm thinking, since the main reason we can't catch up to Eren Yeager in a short Time is due to Speed, then we just need to accelerate our side's pursuit Speed."
"No matter how powerful the opponent's Future Sight Ability is, what can he do in the face of an absolute Speed Gap and Combat Power Gap?"
Vice Chairman Hobson Samuel heard this and said helplessly, "The problem is that even the Monoplane renovated by the Academy of Science is difficult to catch up in a short Time."
"Indeed, and don't forget, among the opponents, there is also a so-called 'Colossal Titan' who possesses an Explosion Ability that can kill Byrnndi World. Looking at the Data on the War Hammer Titan and Beast Titan in the Intelligence, they are also not to be underestimated."
Vice Chairman Gabriel nodded, agreeing with his statement, and continued.
"Kong Ming, there hasn't been any Titan Shifter appearing on the Western Front right now, which indicates that eight out of ten of the Hosts of those Titan Shifters are accompanying Eren Yeager. We must be on guard."
Kong Ming did not deny it, and said calmly, "I have considered these points. Therefore, I hope to apply to Minister Kong of the Command Department to have Air Force Admiral 'Kizaru' join this Arrest Operation!"
"Kizaru?!"
Chairman Fernandez raised an eyebrow, looking at him in surprise.
"Yes."
"Admiral Kizaru is a Logia User of the Glint-Glint Fruit Ability. In his Element Transformation Form, he can achieve straight-line light-speed movement. Of course, calling it movement, in our eyes, it is actually flashing."
Kong Ming looked at another Document containing relevant information about Borsalino, specifically requested from Fleet Admiral Sengoku, and calmly stated his thoughts.
"However, in order to confirm his Position, Admiral Kizaru will only move at light speed within the range of his Observation Haki, and there must be no obstacles along the way. If there are, he will use 'Yata no Kagami' to refract his movement."
Chairman Fernandez and the others listened attentively to Kong Ming's every word.
"According to the information on this Document, the maximum Distance Admiral Kizaru can flash each Time is about ten kilometers."
"So we can have 'Red Count' and his group maintain contact with him, and then have 'Red Count' and Muzan Kibutsuji use their Abilities to guide Admiral Kizaru to the location of the Airplane Eren Yeager is riding."
"However, one point must be noted: Admiral Kizaru and 'Red Count's' Airplane must always be on the same directional line. Only then can they catch up to Eren Yeager by continuously flashing at light speed!"
Finally, Lieutenant General Kong Ming stood Up, scanning the four Colleagues present, his eyes shining with the brilliant Radiance of Confidence and Wisdom.
"Furthermore, according to the Intelligence provided by the Five Elders, the so-called 'Power of the Titans' on Eren's side does not have the Means to harm Logia Users, so we do not need to worry about Admiral Kizaru's Safety!"
