Ling Yun was smiling at the bow of the ship, waving at the fast-approaching fishing boat. The battle didn’t last long, but Ling Yun did use up a lot of energy. He definitely didn’t want to swim back.

Ling Yun hopped over to the fishing boat with ease when it was less than a hundred meters away.

“Thank you!” Ling Yun said with a twinkle in his eyes.

“We should be the ones thanking you! No war-grade weapons killed you! You are godlike!” Yang Desheng, the captain of the fishing boat, exclaimed.

“Ah! You’re bleeding!” Wang Zhongyi blurted out.

Ling Yun gave a calm smile. “Don’t worry, this is the blood of the Japanese…”

“Awesome, really awesome. I have been fishing in this area for more than thirty years. I have never dared to dream that I could be so close to Turtle Island. I feel so fulfilled!”

Yang Desheng shouted in joy as the outline of Turtle Island entered his eyes!

It was their territory, but they were barred from getting close to it for more than thirty years! That unreasonableness was put right tonight, so it was no wonder Yang Desheng was elated!

Ling Yun’s simple leap into their boat was more than enough to explain how he defeated the Japanese.

“A surveillance boat from Huaxia is approaching…” Wang Zhongyi suddenly pointed to the northwest.

“Don’t need to bother about them. Please help me get back to my speedboat and leave here immediately. This is within the boundary of the disputed region. Don’t get involved unnecessarily,” Ling Yun said faintly.

Ling Yun wasn’t happy that the surveillance boat came at a slower pace than the fishing boat. “Our sacred territory cannot be violated” flashed across its LED display. What a joke.

“You… you aren’t going back where you came from? The enemy’s army will be coming soon!” Yang Desheng doubled back.

“My objective in coming here is to get onto Turtle Island. Defeating them was just something I did while I was here. Please just send me back to the five patrol boats and then drive as far as you can from the Turtle Island!”

“Alright! Start the engine!” Yang Desheng gave the order after staring at Ling Yun for some time.

The fishing boat went at full steam, opening the distance between the surveillance boats and them.

They reached the patrol boats in no time. Ling Yun expressed his gratitude to the crew on board the fishing boat once again before he jumped onto Patrol Boat 474. He reunited with Little White and returned to the speedboat.

Ling Yun didn’t use the speedboat to approach Patrol Boat 478 because he was afraid that the enemy would sink it. He would be in trouble then, as he didn’t know how to operate other boats.

Ling Yun drove to the side of the fishing boat. “Thank you, Uncle Yang and the rest of the brothers, for your chivalrous help. I’ll treat you to some alcohol if we have the affinity to meet again in the future!” Ling Yun conveyed his sincere feelings, cupping his fists and saluting them.

Ling Yun now knew that they were Huaxia fishermen from an island off the mainland.

Ling Yun then headed to the surveillance boat one nautical mile away.

This place was less than five hundred meters away from Turtle Island. Ling Yun could get on and off the island at will from that distance.

Instructor Zhang was at the bow, the sea breeze blowing against him. He saw the whole commotion from his surveillance boat. The Japanese patrol boats had chased them around arrogantly. Witnessing their destruction gave him immeasurable satisfaction.

The operator of the speedboat might have given him mixed feelings, but it didn’t stop his happiness from oozing out!

While it was a good turn of events, it was also a prelude to the opening of the Pandora Box! No one present knew that better than Instructor Zhang.

It might have even been opened already!

Floating corpses were everywhere!

“A person that can’t be killed by a missile. He is too powerful!” Instructor Zhang sighed.

Lee was standing at attention beside Instructor Zhang, admiring the same scenery. “Too powerful, and too f*cking cool! These patrol boats have finally come to a standstill after chasing us every day! Why aren’t they sinking!”

“Shut up!” Instructor Zhang said in a low, dangerous tone as he sighed deeply.

Lee complied and looked at several of his crew members who were busy reporting the situation to the higher-ups. The issue was about to snowball into something massive!

Of course, that didn’t change the fact that it was very cool and gratifying. They had also never been so close to Turtle Island in their lives!

“Instructor Zhang, here he comes!” Lee pointed out the dark figure advancing towards them.

“This person from Huaxia is either a practitioner of the ancient martial arts or a person with Extraordinary Abilities. Be careful of what you say. We cannot afford to offend him!” Instructor Zhang cautioned.

Lee acknowledged it quietly. Ling Yun had pulled over to the side of their surveillance boat. He stopped the engine and walked to the bow of his speedboat. Both sides exchanged glances.

“Friend, you have done very well, but you have also brought us huge trouble. Can we talk on my ship?” Instructor Zhang said to the masked Ling Yun.

He couldn’t make out Ling Yun’s age. He thought about addressing him as comrade or Mr., but he felt them to be inappropriate. He settled on “friend”, which suited practitioners well.

Ling Yun grinned when he saw the unsuppressed excitement from the Marine Police.

“There is no need to talk. I’m here to tell you one thing and to borrow something from you.”

Ling Yun didn’t want to have any entanglements with them. He knew that this was about the issue of sovereignty, and they had direct connections with Beijing.

That was also why he was masked.

Instructor Zhang knew that practitioners were usually egotistical and did things their own way. He didn’t push further when Ling Yun refused him. There was no choice in this matter, either. Ling Yun annihilated eight Japanese patrol boats, so it was impossible to win against him.

“Please continue, friend!”

“Tell your superiors that this was all my doing and that it has nothing to do with Huaxia. Any country that has a problem with what happened can come to me alone!” Ling Yun said proudly.

Everyone on board the surveillance boat was stunned!

Only the extremely powerful and confident dared to let words like that leave their lips!

He didn’t need the government to support him!

“Also tell them that there is nothing wrong with me standing on the land of my country. If they come any closer, they are invading my country. It’s normal to counterattack!” Ling Yun continued.

“And if Turtle Island does belong to them, I alone invaded their country. They can try to capture me if they dare!”

“Instructor Zhang, do you have a way to report this upwards?” Ling Yun asked.

Instructor Zhang and his crew seemed to have contracted aphasia all at once!

It turned out that Ling Yun had given this matter serious thought. His logic made sense, especially from a foreign affairs point of view.

The country would be able to avoid trouble on the premise that they abandon Ling Yun!

The country could simply declare Ling Yun as a pirate! That would solve this problem easily.

None of them dared breathe a word lest it be held against them.

“I forgot to bring something when I came here. I hope to borrow it from you!”

“What is that?” Instructor Zhang asked hurriedly.

“Our national flag!” answered Ling Yun.

“Erm…” Instructor Zhang hesitated.

Ling Yun sneered at them, but he knew the conflict in the hearts of these people. He raised his hand and pointed in the direction of Turtle Island. “Is that part of our motherland to you?”

Most of the Marine Police agreed in unison. “So is it alright for me to plant our nation’s flag on our motherland?” Ling Yun asked.

Ling Yun had made up his mind. He would ignore them and head straight for the island if the Marine Police continued to be wishy-washy.

An internal struggle ensued in Instructor Zhang. This was a matter of grave importance. By right, he had to seek guidance from his superiors.

Nonetheless, Instructor Zhang’s final decision didn’t disappoint Ling Yun. He longed for their flag to fly high and proud on the island in front of them!

“Of course! Lee, get one for him now!”

Ling Yun received the red flag in no time. It fluttered gracefully in the wind!

All of the members of the Marine Police boiled with passion and had the utmost respect for the flag! This was undoubtedly a sacred moment!

“Pu!” Ling Yun gently inserted the flag into the bow of the deck, making a dent half a foot deep!

“Goodbye!” Ling Yun returned to his speedboat, reignited the engine, and headed to Turtle Island!

“I, Zhang Yuntian, will never forget this sacred moment for my entire life!” Zhang Yuntian solemnly gave a military salute, his eyes filled with pride!

The same went for the rest of the Marine Police!

The speedboat landed uneventfully after two minutes. Ling Yun found a relatively hidden and quiet bay to park and then walked out of the cabin with Little White.

“Onto the island!”

In a mere three minutes, Ling Yun ascended the highest peak of Turtle Island with Little White. He then planted the red flag into a sturdy piece of rock!

The red flag now flew high and mighty on Turtle Island!
