Chapter 534: Season 2 Book 21 Shadow of War 2- 6-2 Volatile

January 21st, 2024 at 22:00,

The Security Service government building of Shinjuku City, Tokyo, Japan.

Late in the day, the Minister of the Security Service, Miike Takashi, the Minister of Economy and Industry, Ishihara Shintaro, and 3 big white men were sitting at a round table in the basement of the Security Service government building of Shinjuku City, discussing something.

It was obvious that what they were discussing wasn’t about a very good thing, since they were in a secret room and discussing it as if they were conspiring something.

The topic they were discussing was related to the ‘Declaration of Autonomy’ that would be happening 36 hours later, at Tokyo.

“How much reinforcements will we be getting from America?”

Minister of the Ministry of Economy and Industry Ishihara Shintaro questioned in a low voice, looking at the white men with a dark glint in his eye. One of the 3 white men, the one with his sideburns stylishly reaching his jaws, replied with a deep voice.

“Currently, it’s about 700 men. If we were to count the men that are to arrive today, it’ll be around 1,000 men.”

“What? only around 1,000 men?”

Minister Ishihara Shintaro asked again, a scowl on his face. One of the other white men, who was sitting on the left, smirked, and replied.

“There hasn’t ever been 1,000 men of the special force rounded up at one location since the US was founded. Each one of the men are worth 100 normal men, so you don’t have to worry too much about how many men we’ll have.”

He was smiling, but his tone had some kind of charisma that overwhelmed the other person.

“Ah! Even so, only 1,000 men? The Korean marines that are currently garrisoned in Tokyo have over 5,000 men.”

Minister Ishihara Shintaro trailed off, a bit timidly.

“You won’t have to worry, Minister Ishihara! The special force that will be joining this operation is one of the most powerful force, and the pro of pros.”

‘The white man that had first spoke replied in a soft tone, after seeing that the mood had turned heavy.

This was true. As the white man had said, the US special forces that were on standby after secretly infiltrating Tokyo were a famous special force that even people that weren’t military experts would have heard of at least once.

The special forces that the US had provided was 320 men from the US Marines’ only special force, the Radar Force, 20 teams of the Delta Force, which was the special force of the Army, and another special force of the Army, the Green Berets. In the case of the Green Berets, only the 3rd and the 10th

special forces group were included in the operation. Lastly, there were 30 teams of the Navy Seal, the special force of the US Navy that was frequently used as movie topics, supposed to be arriving today.

As the white man had said, the US had been in wars in various places in the world, but there had never been close to 1,000 men of the special force gathered in one location. This was something that would go down in the history of the US.

“Ah, is that so? Ha ha I was impatient because I thought this operation might fail. I apologize.”

Minister Ishihara apologized, scratching his head after hearing names like Delta Force and Navy Seal that he’d heard a few times before in movies.

The Japanese cabinet and US had painted a big picture, putting the ‘Declaration of Autonomy at the forefront. As part of that plan, there were special force soldiers coming in to Japan through the Narita International Airport, disguised as normal people, starting from last week.

Of course, the personal firearms, as well as the personal equipment and various bombs needed for battle, passed through the immigration checkpoint without any restraint. This was because the Japanese cabinet had already exerted influence on the immigration office. This was indeed something that

couldn’t ever be done without the government intervention.

With both countries turning a blind eye to the illegal methods of smuggling various firearms for war, the US special forces had finished deploying in various locations in Tokyo after arriving there. They were now preparing for a cooperation with the security service in the future.

“Besides that, how are the movements of the Korean Marine force that are garrisoned in Tokyo?”

This time, the white man on the right asked a question. At this, Minister Miike Takashi replied.

“We’re keeping watch every 24 hours, but their movements aren’t too different from 4 days ago. The Korean Marines are strangely quiet.”

4, days ago, Minister Miike Takashi had already sent the commanéd line of the US special forces all of the deployment statuses of the Korean Marines garrisoned in the Honshu area.

“I see. How are the preparations for the security service going?”

“You won’t have to worry about that part. As you’ve requested, 20,000 men of the South and North Honshu security service will join with the Tokyo security service by tomorrow night. The total will be 42,000 men.”

“Lsee. Please take care of the planned transfer until tomorrow night.”

“Yes, sure thing.”

January 22nd, 2024 at 00:30 (local time 01:30),

At sea (combat command center of the Gerald R. Ford (CVN-78)), 480km from the east end of Katsuura, Chiba prefecture, Japan.

Even though it was so cloudy that there wasn’t any starlight seen in the sky, the US Navy was in the middle of the ‘2024 Pacific united training.’ However, the combat command center of the Gerald R. Ford (CVN-78) was thinking about something completely different from the training that was currently

ongoing.

They were thinking about the power of the Korean Navy, out at the East Sea.

As soon as the Pacific Fleet’s 3rd and 7th fleet started sailing to the East Sea, the US had mobilized all of the reconnaissance power that they had to figure out how powerful the Republic of Korea Navy was. Amongst that, they had detected destroyers and frigates of the 2nd fleet sailing towards the East

Sea, and other useful information.

But it was impossible to track it in real time because of the sporadic electromagnetic waves jamming the detection. So it was just a back and forth of detection and losing track.

In the skies of the East Sea, 4 of the latest model of the Atlas reconnaissance satellites were observing every inch of the empty Pacific Ocean without resting.

“Still not detected yet?”

Pacific Fleet Commander Admiral Rubin Scott asked with an unsatisfied expression, sitting on the stylish chair made with red leather. He had attended the maritime operations meeting related to the ‘Declaration of Autonomy’ held at the Pentagon for a few days.

‘There were a few conditions that were prerequisite to have the operation of landing 6 marine divisions at the coast of Chiba, the expected landing location, succeed.

Even if various equipment had advanced in technology, landing 6 marine divisions at the same time was not an easy task. They had to identify what the dangers were ahead of time perfectly, and also create a plan to get rid of all of those dangers in order for the operation to succeed, before they went

through with the operation. In order to do that, it was of utmost importance to know how powerful the Republic of Korea Navy was.

“Yes, they’re currently searching inside out at the expected location, but there hasn’t been any report of detection. But we’ve found the general location of a few warships 3 hours ago.”

Pacific Fleet’s Command Line Operations Officer Jimmy Lopez replied, pointing to the large screen. The large screen at the front was showing, with red dots, where the destroyer of the 2nd fleet was when they had detected it 3 hours ago with the reconnaissance forces.

“If it was 3 hours ago, they must have moved dozens of kilometers, this is insufficient information!”

Admiral Rubin Scott made a face, stroking his beard. Operator Nick Rimando of the 3rd fleet, who had been standing in the back, stepped forward and presented his opinion.

“Commander! What do you think about sending out a maritime reconnaissance aircraft?”

Admiral Rubin Scott glanced at Operator Nick Rimando, then shook his head.

“If our maritime reconnaissance aircraft flies toward the East Sea, won’t the Korean Navy or the Air Force take notice of it instantly? It’s not good to do things that might cause them to notice that we’re up to something!”

“Yes, you’re right. Since 4 of the Atlas reconnaissance satellites that were able to detect Korea’s 6th generation stealth fighter jets have been mobilized, it might be better to wait a bit longer.”

At Operations Officer Jimmy Lopez’s additional suggestion, Admiral Rubin Scott nodded in agreement.

“Okay! We’ll wait and see. Since it’s getting late, finish up the night training and order everyone to switch to a watch system.”

“Yes, sir.”

Admiral Rubin Scott gave a short order, and left the combat command center.

7 hours later, when the sun was inching up from the east horizon, one of the Atlas reconnaissance satellites reported that it had detected warships assumed to be part of the Korean Navy, 130km from the east end of Katsura, Chiba. Along with the report, it immediately projected the data that it had

detected on the screen of the combat command center.

Excepting those on watch duty, the empty combat command center was filled up quickly with commanders and staff, including Admiral Rubin Scott.

“Really! Is that all?”

The scale of the Korean Naval force, projected on the screen, looked smaller than expected. There were only 12 ships, and of those, 2 were multipurpose amphibious assault ships and 7 were frigates. Thus, the ships that were thought to be destroyers were only 3 ships out of the 12.

“This information is from the 4 additional Atlas reconnaissance satellites that were mobilized to help detection of the enemy fleet. It seems like that’s the entirety of the Korean Naval force here at the East Sea.”

Operations Officer Jimmy Lopez,100% trustful of the performance of the Atlas reconnaissance satellites, answered in a convincing tone.

“Mm, that means Korea isn’t doubtful at all about the Pacific Fleet’s trainin

“Tt could be thought that way, but I also think that it could be because they don’t want to create friction with us by overreacting to a normal training session.” action

At Operations Officer Jimmy Lopez’s additional statement, Admiral Rubin Scott, who had been a bit doubtful, nodded and agreed.

“Good! If it’s just that many ships, we can probably destroy them in one go. Present the detailed information about the confirmed Korean Naval warships.”

“Yes sir, presenting.”

As soon as Admiral Rubin Scott gave the order, the Battle Information officer, who was the head of the combat command center, relayed the orders to the operators operating the equipment in the front.

Soon after, the screen was full with various detailed information about the 12 warships.

First, the 3 destroyers were KD-3 the Yulgok Yi Yi (DDG-992), KD-2 the Dae Jo-yeong (DDH-977) and the Wang Geon (DDH-978), with each ship’s details shown. Second, the 7 ships classified as frigates were the Daegu-class frigates, the Daegu (FF-818), the Seoul (FF-823), the Busan (FF-827), and the

Kim Joon-class frigates, the Gowoochoong (FF-832), the Seong Chung (FF-835), the Jisoo-shin (FF-837), and the Gang Su (FF-839). Lastly, the Ganghwado-class multipurpose amphibious assault ship, the Geojedo (LHD-5112) and the Jindo (LHD-5114), which were as good as medium-sized aircraft

carriers, were shown in order.

“Admiral! Mm, if it’s that many ships, it’s probable that the Korean force could be destroyed only with the 8 destroyers currently designated as the blue team.”

Operations Officer Jimmy Lopez concluded after reading all of the various details in order.

“Mm, that’s true, What do you think, Admiral Rimando?”

Admiral Rubin Scott asked the 3rd fleet’s commander, Admiral Nick Rimando, who had been sitting in his seat silently.

“Tm suspicious because the information we’d gotten beforehand doesn’t match up to this.”

Looking at the screen carefully, Admiral Nick Rimando tilted his head, making wrinkles on his forehead. He seemed to feel that something was off.

“This does seem suspicious to me, as well. But as Operations Officer Jimmy Lopez has said, the reason why they mobilized such a small force might be because they don’t want to create friction with us by overreacting to a normal training session.”

“Admiral! That’s just what we think. I think it would be good to watch on a bit more.”

Admiral Nick Rimando continued his suspicions.

“That’s true, but there’s only an hour left until the landing operation. We should establish a response plan with those forces in mind for now. Gather all of the warship captains to the operation meeting room after 2 hours..”
