Chapter 527 The Situation

Meanwhile, thousands of miles away in Iran, most of the people were still immersed in the tension and unease brought about by the impending war, completely unaware that a catastrophic disaster that could destroy the entire country was rapidly approaching.

The city was still brightly lit, the streets were bustling with traffic, and crowds of people were busy with their own lives. Everything seemed so peaceful, and people were completely unaware of the enormous danger that was gradually approaching overhead.

Inside the elegantly decorated office in Iran, the atmosphere was so tense it felt like you could wring water out of it.

The Supreme Leader sat there quietly, his expression calm. Facing the anxious expressions of his aides and the overwhelming public opinion about nuclear threats, his eyes revealed a confidence that was difficult for others to see through.

"Someone will take care of that nuclear bomb."

His tone was unhurried, as if he were talking about nothing more than a trivial matter.

The surrounding staff looked at each other, full of doubt, but the supreme leader did not offer any further explanation. He simply closed his eyes slightly, as if waiting for something.

At the same moment, the intercontinental ballistic missile was streaking across the sky at lightning speed, rapidly approaching Iranian territory.

Satellites from around the world are keeping a close eye on Iran.

On the ground, all the advanced radar equipment from various countries were activated, and a dense network of signals wove together to form an invisible net that enveloped the skies over Iran.

Everyone held their breath, their attention focused intently on the impending nuclear crisis; a suffocating tension filled the air.

The moment the nuclear warhead entered Iranian airspace, something bizarre happened.

On the monitoring screens of various countries, the signal dots that had been clearly displayed as nuclear weapons suddenly disappeared without warning.

"Disappeared? How is that possible!"

The staff member in charge of monitoring stared wide-eyed and muttered to himself involuntarily. His voice came through the microphone, revealing his shock and confusion.

The colleagues around him were also stunned, looking at each other blankly, and the entire monitoring room fell into a deathly silence.

Soon, intelligence agencies from various countries sprang into action.

They quickly reported the mysterious disappearance of the nuclear bomb up the chain of command, and after repeated confirmations, they finally came to the conclusion that the nuclear bomb had not exploded, but had simply vanished into thin air.

In this world full of unknowns and mysteries, everyone unanimously thought of mysterious figures with superpowers who could accomplish such incredible feats.

The intelligence agencies' elites immediately launched a thorough investigation to try to find out why the nuclear bomb had disappeared.

They reviewed a large amount of data and conducted a thorough screening and analysis of all known superhumans worldwide.

With their keen insight and professional judgment, they quickly identified several of the most likely suspects.

And Wes's name was prominently featured on this highly anticipated list.

Wes possesses powerful spatial abilities, which is no secret in the intelligence community.

More importantly, he has a grudge against the US government, and past grievances give him sufficient motivation to stop the US nuclear attack.

Intelligence agencies around the world know that this powerful man, who harbors resentment towards the United States, now possesses the missing nuclear bomb.

When news of the nuclear bombs' disappearance spread like wildfire around the world, the reactions of all countries except the United States were surprisingly consistent: they all adopted a wait-and-see attitude.

Social media was buzzing with excitement as people discussed the unexpected plot developments, completely ignoring the huge crisis lurking behind it. Speculation and discussion flooded in, keeping the topic trending high.

"fuxxk!!"

Inside the Oval Office, a symbol of power in the White House, the US president was completely blinded by rage.

His face turned purplish-red, like a ripe tomato about to burst, his features contorted with extreme anger.

Like a mad beast, it smashed everything in the office that it could.

He threw the documents around forcefully, scattering them all over the ground.

In his rage, the exquisite ornament was smashed to the ground and instantly shattered into countless pieces.

The entire office was a mess.

"Launch! Launch all the nuclear missiles!"

He roared at the top of his lungs, his deafening voice seeming to pierce the roof of the White House and echo in every corner.

The advisors and staff standing to the side exchanged helpless glances.

The launch of just one nuclear missile has already plunged the United States into unprecedented international public opinion and subjected it to enormous pressure.

If all nuclear weapons were launched, it would undoubtedly plunge the world into an abyss of no return, and the United States would become a global enemy.

"Your Excellency, it seems that we have no choice but to deploy the army now."

An experienced senior consultant broke the silence.

Upon hearing this, the president turned around abruptly, his eyes bloodshot, staring fiercely at the advisor like an enraged bull.

However, just a few seconds later, his crazed gaze gradually returned to calm. He gasped for breath, trying to calm himself down and regain his senses.

He knew in his heart that the advisor was right. In the dire situation where nuclear weapons had lost their deterrent power, the only thing the United States could rely on was its powerful military, which was said to be the world's number one.

Meanwhile, intelligence agencies and military departments in other countries are on high alert, closely monitoring every move the United States makes.

They were secretly on guard, fearing that the United States might take even more reckless and irreversible actions in its panic and anger.

The United States finally made up its mind and took further action.

The massive aircraft carrier battle group, resembling a towering mobile steel fortress, sailed into the Red Sea with overwhelming force.

The lead aircraft carrier, with its massive body, appeared exceptionally majestic on the sea. On the flight deck, rows of carrier-based aircraft were neatly arranged, their wings gleaming with a cold and sharp metallic luster under the bright sunlight, like a flock of steel raptors poised to take off.

The escorting cruisers, destroyers, and other ships closely surrounded the aircraft carrier.

Meanwhile, transport ships fully loaded with American soldiers slowly approached the Israeli coast.

The arrival of the US Navy eased the tension that had been building up on Israel's nerves a little.

The Israeli people also felt a sense of relief, and the streets were filled with discussions. People began to hold onto hope, believing that with the strong intervention of the United States, this crisis might indeed be resolved properly.

However, contrary to expectations, the intervention of the US Navy did not frighten Iran.

Instead, they took the initiative to strike first.
