Salute To The General (Nathan Cross) novel Chapter 2970

Kiyoshi's capability was far above Akuma's.

Seeing that Kiyoshi had requested to fight in the war, Hidetake was overjoyed. The latter got up immediately and chuckled cheerfully. “All right! The invincible warrior with white armor and a red spear. With you, Kiyoshi the God of Warrior, taking matters into your own hands, Colin's death will be near.”

After that, Hidetake asked happily, “Kiyoshi, just tell me how many elites you need to follow you to battle, and which troops you want them to be from. I will fulfill all your requests.”

Kiyoshi bowed slightly and replied calmly, “General Hidetake, I don't need to mobilize elites from any troops and I just need to lead a thousand of my warriors. It is currently nighttime. I will assemble my subordinates and set out later. I think you can receive the good news from me by sunrise tomorrow.”

Hidetake smiled and answered, “All right. You may go get ready now!”

“Yes, sir!”

Kiyoshi excused himself and strode away.

However, Hidetake didn't rush to dismiss the meeting. Instead, he glanced around at every general at the scene.

Then he spoke lightly, “What do you think about the chance of Kiyoshi defeating Colin this time?”

Everyone was stunned after hearing Hidetake's question. In the next second, they began their discussions.

Some said Kiyoshi would definitely overwhelm Colin and could easily defeat the latter.

Some also stated Colin's strength shouldn't be underestimated, as he had been serving Eurasia's God of War for many years. The odds of success of the battle between Kiyoshi and Colin would most probably be a fifty-fifty chance.

The debate went on and on.

Hidetake furrowed his brows slightly and spoke. “All right. That's enough.”

Everyone stopped talking and became silent again.

Kogoro, Yukio, and Shohei answered in unison, “Yes, sir!”

At night, the moon shone brightly above the sea, and the sounds of the waves echoed throughout the vast ocean.

Colin was currently sitting on the bow of the fishing vessel with a bottle of whiskey in his hand. He was spacing out while staring at the bright moon far away.

Although alcohol was banned in the military, the night out at sea was too cold, and he had to drink some alcohol to stay warm.

At that moment, a subordinate walked over and whispered, “General Dunne, it's windy at night. Besides, it's completely quiet now. I guess the enemy won't dare to return.”

Colin glanced at his subordinate and said lightly, “No, you're wrong. It's often calm before a huge war begins. Also, never underestimate the enemy's stubbornness. I have a feeling that they will surely return, and it might be tonight. Order everyone to be fully prepared for battle at any time.”

The subordinate answered immediately, “Yes, General Dunne.”
