The Martial Unity

Chapter 2252  Unprecedented

A large number of significant events had happened in a short period of time.

So much so that the rest of East Panama almost couldn't even keep up.

First, the President of the Republic of Gorteau declared war on the Kandrian Empire. Not long after, the Kandrian Empire entered a state of national emergency. Soon after, whispers of an elite Martial Sekigaharan strike force made up of Martial Artists of the Upper Realms was supposedly deployed towards the Kandrian Empire.

This report had made the upper echelons of East Panama nervous.

"What are those bastards up to this time…?"

"Tsk, all of East Panama is going to be swept up in their chaos."

"If this intel is true, then war has already begun. It is not surprising that the Sekigahara Confederate will be the first to launch an attack."

The Sekigahara Confederate was notorious for being a lunatic nation.

They waged war all-out with little prudence and, surprisingly, yielded very good results.

It was because it was extremely difficult to predict exactly what a lunatic would do that they were successful in war.

Nobody could predict to what extent these madmen would go just to wage war.

Throwing the entirety or an overwhelming majority of their Martial capital to attack an enemy nation was something that no sane man would do as it would leave their home nation entirely defenseless.

Military strategy involved predicting enemy decision-making by estimating their objectives and constraints, plotting the most optimal course of action for their enemies, and then planning for such an eventuality.

Whoever was able to read their opponents the furthest possessed an advantage in military strategy. This school of thought had been refined over centuries and had become the established paradigm for military strategists.

The Sekigahara Confederate, however, defied all of them. They had no constraints, and their objectives were harder to predict than the economy. When enemy nations tried predicting the Sekigahara Confederate, they made grave miscalculations by assuming that those savages had any hint of sanity, leading to blunders in war that led to their defeat.

This was one of the reasons that Sekigahara Confederate had managed to become a powerhouse historically. This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

And they had lived up to their reputation as they deployed an overwhelming majority of the Martial Artists of the Upper Realms in a single attack in a very showy and ostentatious manner, which was something that no sane military commander would ever dream of doing.

Much to the shock of the world, however, the Kandrian Empire responded perfectly as the Emperor of Harmony demonstrated why he had gained the reputation for being the greatest emperor in the Age of Martial Art.

The entire world had paid its undivided attention to the battle between the Sekigahara Confederate and the Kandrian Empire. It drew eyes from all over the continent.

It was impossible to hide a battle of such extraordinary magnitude.

It was impossible to hide the battle between the Masters, let alone the Sages. Thus, although the rest of the continent was unable to get their hands on actual footage of the battle or anything like that, they were able to gain a broad understanding of the battle by either deploying Martial Artists of the Upper Realms to observe the battle from a great distance, too far to be noticed by the Sages of either side but just close enough to get a better idea of the dynamics.

Much to the shock of all those who were powerful enough to peer at the Kandrian Empire without getting noticed, the Kandrian Empire had deployed seven new Martial Sages out of nowhere!

"Wait, where the hell did these new bastards come from?"

"I want all intel efforts focused on finding everything there is to know about these seven new Martial Sages!"

"Issue a demand for Emperor Rael to make a statement on this matter!"

This development had rattled the highest echelons of human civilization.

A nation did not merely get seven brand-new Sages out of nowhere.

As the Martial Masters deployed for distant surveillance weren't able to get close enough to confirm their identities, it was unclear whether these Martial Artists were native or foreign Sages brought into the nation.

Either was a real possibility.

Regardless, the battle between the Kandrian Empire and the Sekigahara Confederate received ashen sentiments from the rest of East Panama. Even the commoners knew that this battle most likely marked the beginning of the third Great East Panamic War.

After all, the Republic of Gorteau was on the verge of officially declaring war, the Sekigahara Confederate had already mounted an extraordinary attack, and the Britannian Empire was also poised to join the war as well.

The Kandrian Empire should have been destined for destruction in the face of such pressure. It should have suffered grave losses against the assault of the Sekigahara Confederate.

Yet, much to the surprise of everyone spectating with bated breaths, not only did the Kandrian Empire push the Sekigahara Confederate back, but they managed to do so without suffering a single loss and much fewer losses on the Master front. Furthermore, according to intel reports flowing in from long-range surveillance and spies in the Kandrian Empire, not even the tiniest ounce of damage had been inflicted upon the nation or its people.

A perfect victory in the eyes of the world, the dream of every commander-in-chief.

The revelations of seven new Sages truly shocked the world, yet it wasn't as shocking as the latest report that had made its way to the political sphere of human civilization.

A single report.

The Esocline Federation had mounted a long-range siege upon the Sekigahara Confederate amidst its assault on the Kandrian Empire.

All hell broke loose across East Panama as all people of all classes and all nations of all Realms gritted their teeth and braced themselves for the impact amidst the havoc and chaos this latest report sparked amidst human civilization.

Never before in the history of the Age of Martial Art had there ever been a war involving five Sage-level powerhouses.

The world watched with bated breath as a conflict of unprecedented scope boiled before their very eyes.
