Reborn mosquito, wreaking havoc on your life!

Chapter 96 Join if you can’t beat him
The news of the eruption of Mount Fuji, the sacred mountain of the island nation, quickly swept across the entire island nation and shocked all walks of life.

Especially for the upper class of the island nation, the impact of this sudden disaster was far more serious than people imagined.

The five major families in the island country's political arena are Fukuda, Abe, Aso, Koizumi, and Hatoyama.

An elite meeting was held secretly without the knowledge of the cabinet and the royal family.

There is only one topic for this meeting:

Should we follow the public’s call, completely change our strategic direction, and oppose the United States in the future?
There is no fool among those present who can manage a big family and keep it standing for decades.

Their idea is simple.

Now I am against the extraordinary creatures, but I can't win the fight. I am always worried that I will die and my life safety cannot be guaranteed.

Might as well just join.

If you can't beat them, just join them. There's nothing shameful about that.

Since the island country can submit to the United States, why can't it submit to Daxia?

No news from the Cabinet could be kept from them.

They already knew that Saburo Iwai was a traitor.

But so what?
The mastermind behind this is none other than Daxia or some extraordinary creature.

As long as I kneel down quickly enough, Iwai Saburo won't be considered a betrayal.

The meeting was held in a secret villa in Tokyo, and the participants were the most powerful figures in the island nation's politics.

The Futian family patriarch spoke first, breaking the silence in the meeting room:

"Everyone, the situation is now very clear. During the time we were enemies with the extraordinary creatures, look at what happened in the island country?"

He slammed the documents in his hand on the table, his tone full of suppressed anger and helplessness.

"Tokyo's mosquito infestation, Osaka's mosquito infestation, the Imperial Palace's nuclear radiation, and now even Mount Fuji is erupting!"

There was silence in the conference room.

Several clan leaders looked at each other. No one could deny this. The island nation was in an unprecedented crisis.

"His Majesty the Emperor is still in the hospital. Half of the royal family members have died, and even some cabinet members have died because of the mosquito plague in Tokyo.

"The Imperial Palace is now enveloped by nuclear radiation, and Tokyo's population has lost half."

The patriarch of the Abe family said coldly, his expression stiff, as if he was trying hard to suppress his inner anger.

The patriarch of the Aso family sighed, rubbed his temples, and spoke slowly but firmly:

“It’s a fact that we can’t defeat extraordinary creatures. Even anti-aircraft guns can’t hurt them unless we use nuclear weapons.

“But every time that extraordinary creature appears, it is not in the wilderness, but in the city!
"Who among you has the guts to risk the world's condemnation and drop nuclear weapons on a city?
"Since we became enemies with that extraordinary creature, we have been hit by frequent disasters, public discontent and protests have arisen one after another, and our economy is on the verge of collapse. We can't continue like this."

"So what you mean is - surrender?"

The patriarch of the Koizumi family frowned, with a hint of hesitation and uneasiness in his tone:

"We are going to betray the United States?"

"betray?"

Chief Futian sneered:
"The United States once dropped two atomic bombs on us, killing millions of us. The hatred between us and the extraordinary creatures now is far less than that of the United States.

"We can bow down to the United States, why can't we bow down to Daxia?"

The patriarch of the Hatoyama family nodded in agreement:
"Iwai Saburo is a supernatural being or a pawn of Daxia. As long as we surrender quickly enough, Iwai Saburo will not be considered a traitor."

The conference room fell into a brief silence as everyone weighed the pros and cons.

After a brief silence, the patriarch of the Futian family spoke again. He took out a secret report from a folder and handed it to several other patriarchs.

"Times have changed! Ladies and Gentlemen, this is the intelligence we just received. Ten minutes ago, Daxia successfully tested an intercontinental missile with a range of 1.2 kilometers, accurately hitting the intended target on the high seas."

The patriarch of the Koizumi family picked up the report and his face turned pale instantly. He swallowed hard, his voice trembling:

"1.2 km range... Oh my god!"

Intercontinental missiles are not unfamiliar. They have existed for a long time and mean long-range nuclear strike capabilities.

But a range of 1.2 kilometers is too outrageous.

The whole world boasts that their intercontinental missiles can reach a range of 10,000 kilometers, but only Daxia dares to test-fire them and proves that they can really reach a range of 10,000 kilometers.

The United States is only 10,000 kilometers away from Daxia...

The shock and awe in the Aso family patriarch's tone could not be concealed:
"This means that Daxia can directly launch a nuclear strike against the United States from its homeland, not to mention the neighboring island countries."

The patriarch of the Hatoyama family's hands trembled slightly:
"Not only that, there is even more terrible news. Daxia had already informed the United States in advance before launching the intercontinental missile."

"what?"

Everyone showed an expression of disbelief.

"Yes, you heard it right. The United States knew in advance that Daxia was going to test-fire an intercontinental missile. This means that the United States will definitely find ways to intercept it and make Daxia's intercontinental missile fail."

The Futian family patriarch spoke in a low voice, but every word was like a heavy hammer, striking the nerves of everyone present:

"But Daxia still succeeded in launching the missile. The United States, the world's number one military power, is unable to intercept Daxia's intercontinental missile!"

The conference room fell into deathly silence!

No one spoke anymore!

Everyone is digesting this shocking news!
"This... is incredible!"

The patriarch of the Koizumi family had cold sweat on his forehead:
"We have always thought that the United States is invincible. When did Daxia become so strong?"

The patriarch of the Aso family sighed:

"I don't know. They have been developing quietly in the abyss."

The patriarch of the Futian family said calmly:

"We, the island nation, must make a choice. Continuing to fight against extraordinary creatures will only lead us into a deeper disaster. If we turn to Daxia in time, there may still be a glimmer of hope.

"The mastermind behind this is just trying to support Iwai Saburo to take the top position, right? So what if he becomes the Minister of General Affairs? At least, none of us will have to worry anymore.

"I'm worried that my family will be like the royal family and suddenly and inexplicably suffer a catastrophic disaster."

Inheritance is the most important thing for a big family.

Will it affect the prosperity and wealth of these big families for generations if the island country submits to whom?
Does not affect.

But half of the Chrysanthemum Royal Family, an island royal family that has been passed down for two thousand years, suddenly died.

This was like a needle that severely hurt all the major families!

Faced with such extraordinary power, which patriarch of a big family would not be afraid?
One day, the bloodline of my family might be cut off.

The patriarch of the Hatoyama family nodded slowly:
"Indeed, times have changed! If we don't adapt to the changes, only destruction will await us."

In the end, the five major families reached a consensus.

Instead of continuing to waver between the United States and Daxia, it is better to turn to Daxia, submit and seek a new way out.

But now the five major families are facing a new problem.

What should the royal family do?
The five major families do not have much hatred towards the extraordinary creatures.

Half of the royal family died, and there is a blood feud between them and the extraordinary creatures.

There is no way the royal family would bow to extraordinary creatures.
