"Jarvis, I won't get shot down as a UFO while flying like this, will I?" Although the sensation of flight was incredibly exhilarating, Zhang nglong couldn't help but worry a bit.
"Mr. Zhang can rest assured, the Mark 7 is equipped with a very powerful anti-detection system. At least with the current level of technology on Earth, even if we are detected, nothing can be done about it, not even leaving behind an image!" Jarvis declared with utter confidence.
"That's good to hear!" Zhang nglong felt much more relieved.
Surpassing 30 tis the speed of sound, Zhang nglong quickly left the jurisdiction of Baodao Province and entered the Pacific Ocean. For ordinary humans, the imnse acceleration would be enough to cause serious harm to the body, and even now, Zhang nglong couldn't completely ignore this strain.
"Mr. Zhang, nurous strong life signals have been detected ahead, moving towards our direction at high speed!" About two minutes into the flight, Zhang nglong suddenly received a warning from the artificial intelligence, Jarvis.
"Report the details!"
"Two entities have an energy intensity of 5 units, ten entities have an energy intensity of 3 units, estimated to intersect our path in 12 seconds!"
"Can you send the specific images?"
"Transferring images now!"
A picture suddenly appeared in front of Zhang nglong. It was an underwater vehicle with a very peculiar shape, resembling a submarine, but with a distinctly different design that greatly reduced water resistance. At least, Zhang nglong had never seen such a fast-moving underwater vehicle before.
Then, the image inside the vehicle was also transmitted to Zhang nglong, where twelve individuals in distinctive black wetsuits sat quietly.
They all wore masks over their faces, and each had a sword resembling a Tang Sword slotted behind them, all exuding that strong Kaibong aura.
"Comnce information comparison!" The veils on the faces of the twelve ninjas seed to vanish instantly, revealing their true identities. Information collected by Hong Yi was imdiately retrieved from Jarvis's database. These twelve ninjas were the ones sent by Kaibong to assassinate him!
"Talk about a small world!" Zhang nglong sneered, "Perfect timing!"
"Jarvis, begin analyzing the tal material's strength!"
"Analysis complete. The laser weapon carried by the Mark 7 armor can still easily cut through the material after being weakened by seawater!"
"Technology truly is the primary productive force!" Zhang nglong couldn't praise enough. Wasn't having an artificial intelligence like Jarvis too convenient?
"Since that's the case, I'll take you out first, then destroy that base!"
...
Inside the subrsible, a few previously silent Kaibong people finally began to converse.
"Captain, the mission given from above was just to kill a wealthy businessman. Is it necessary to dispatch two teams?"
"Yeah, captain, a regular person with bodyguards will at best be slightly better at martial arts than the average person; I think even sending out one team is overestimating him," soone else said.
"You're underestimating them!" A Chunin spoke, "Although he is just a regular person, don't forget his wealth rivals that of many nations. With enough money, you can make the devil turn the millstones, and with enough money, 99% of things in this world can be done!"
"That's right," another Chunin interjected coldly, "They have a powerful system that allows them to tap into human potential without relying on technology. It's called ancient martial arts. These Ancient Martial Artists exist mostly in families and have much greater freedom than us ninjas and the Arican mutants."
"When I was a Genin just like you, I encountered a wealthy man protected by an Ancient Martial Artist. I did kill him, but not without cost. And to my knowledge, that Ancient Martial Artist wasn't even particularly formidable!"
"There's such a thing?" Those Genin had only heard of a special operations group called "Longxia," but they knew very little about Ancient Martial Artists.
"These Ancient Martial Artists are not official state forces, so they must earn their own developnt funds. They accumulate wealth by running businesses in the secular world and also work as bodyguards for the rich. Of course, the price is terrifying, but for our target this ti, money is just a number. It's highly likely that such people are protecting him!"
"Even if he is willing to spend a lot of money, he might even hire Psychics and Mutants from other countries!" said a Chunin. "I have studied a lot of information about this target. If he didn't have any protective forces around him, with his ability to attract trouble, he would have been killed 10 tis over by now!"
"Beep beep beep!" Just at that mont, an alarm suddenly sounded from a device on the ship.
"What's going on? Is a target approaching? Have we been discovered?"
"Impossible, our Sub-Shark is coated with the latest technology. Even our current technology can't detect it; it's impossible that we've been found. It must be a powerful energy source approaching!"
"There's no target showing on radar!"
"Detector has found a powerful energy source, speed 30 Mach, shape undetectable, location undetectable, Energy Level... 12 units of Energy Intensity!"
"What? 12 units of Energy Intensity? That's the strength level of a Divine Ninja, how is this possible!"
"The alarm is getting louder!"
"No, the direction of the approach is not us, it's our base! We just happened to run into it!"
"Powerful energy source approaching! Intensity has risen to 15 units!"
"Our ship..." The voice had barely finished when a red beam of light swept through the center of the whole ship. Where it passed, the tal lted, and the voice of that Ninja was abruptly cut off, as a vertical slice appeared on his body.
"Number 2! Number 3!"
Two Chunin shouted for their subordinates, but eight of the ten Genin were sitting in the path of that laser cut and had already completely lost their signs of life.
By now, seawater had begun to pour in, and the ship's reactor was showing signs of explosion.
"Go!" The remaining four Ninjas imdiately abandoned the ship. One of them created a vacuum bubble in the water, enveloping them as they instantly floated to the surface.
"This...this is impossible!" The pupils of the four Ninjas dilated rapidly. Hovering above them was a red tal man, his palms still glowing with the afterglow of the laser.
Iron Man, this globally popular comic book character, appeared before them. Could there be anything more absurd in the world?
"Iron Man?"
"Am I still dreaming?"
"Is this real? An Arican?"
"Surprised? Unexpected?" ca a young voice from the armor.
The Kaibong Ninjas looked at each other. From this armor, they felt a huge threat to their lives!
"Correct answer, you win a prize!" Zhang nglong said rcilessly. "The reward is to send you off to et God!"
A sweep of red light, and the four n didn't even have ti to react before a slash appeared on their necks, then their bodies slowly sank into the depths of the Pacific Ocean...
