The next morning.
As the morning sunlight spills over the shimring sea.
Dr. Joseph, General Charles, and other scientists have arrived in the sea area where the rift is located by patrol ship.
"Beautiful, so beautiful, and truly astonishing!"
Standing on the deck of the patrol ship, Dr. Joseph and others looked shocked.
The rising sun cast a soft glow on the blue sea surface, countless types of fish leaped out of the sea and then fell back into the water, splashing droplets everywhere.
The scene was truly magnificent.
In midair, the gigantic rift stretched across the lower skies, with fragnts of dark space forming constantly at the rift edges and then continually disintegrating.
However, at the center of the rift, a faint silver light exuded, appearing fairly stable.
Whoosh~!
Inside the rift, imnse invisible gases surged wildly like howling winds, sweeping across the sea surface, creating ripples.
"These gases really make one feel refreshed, it's no wonder they attract so many fish, even those from the deep sea are drawn to the surface."
Bright flashes flickered in Dr. Joseph's eyes.
"Dr. Joseph, our research submarine has dived to start operations, collecting water quality and aquatic life samples."
Said General Charles nearby.
"Mm, thank you, General Charles."
Dr. Joseph nodded, then focused his gaze, looking upwards at the massive rift extending hundreds of ters in the air.
"General Charles, next, we may need you to dispatch a helicopter to approach the rift and collect the freshest gases."
"However, there might be certain risks involved."
Dr. Joseph looked toward General Charles and said, after all, flying a helicopter near the space rift, anything could happen.
"Dr. Joseph, for the sake of research, I will send our bravest lads there."
General Charles stated.
Tatatata~!
On the deck of the patrol ship, an ard helicopter's rotors were spinning, lifting off the deck and heading toward that space rift.
The location of the space rift wasn't very high in altitude, and the ard helicopter soon approached the rift.
Facing the down-flaring gases, a soldier inside the helicopter used specialized gas collection equipnt to gather the descending gases.
"General Charles, I wonder if we could get a bit closer?"
Dr. Joseph watched the ard helicopter still a hundred ters away from the rift, and asked.
"Guys, get a little closer for ."
At that mont, General Charles ordered the helicopter to approach the rift through the communicator.
However, just when the helicopter was about thirty ters from the rift.
The rotors of the helicopter spun slower and slower, then with a "bang," the ard helicopter suddenly disassembled itself.
The sturdy aircraft structure disintegrated and then plumted straight down, crashing onto the sea surface, splashing towering water columns.
Seeing this, Dr. Joseph and General Charles' faces simultaneously changed.
"Quick, start the yacht, send soone to rescue our brave lads."
General Charles hastily commanded.
Imdiately, within the patrol ship, a yacht was launched, speeding toward the crash site.
"It seems that the spatial structure near the rift is extrely unstable, causing the sturdy aircraft to inexplicably break apart."
Dr. Joseph speculated.
As the United States navy reached the incident sea area to collect samples, countries like Huaxia, Japan, South Korea, and Russia also dispatched warships to the scene.
This sea area is international waters, so warships from all countries can enter without any notification.
In an instant, this sea area was filled with warships from several countries, each carrying scientists from their respective nations.
In distant Europe, the European Union naturally also learned of this news, and all EU nations ford a joint research fleet, heading towards here as well.
This sea area could be said to have seized the world's attention.
Huaxia, Yunshui City.
Due to Qin Yang's successful drive, annihilating the elite led by the Wolf Race prince, Japan's four major clans temporarily refrained from acting rashly, waiting for the Nangong and Shangguan Clans to leave before proceeding.
However, in recent days, the experts from these two clans did not leave until yesterday when the experts from the Nangong and Shangguan Clans finally left, heading to Jiangnan City.
Near the outskirts.
Inside a Japanese-style wooden villa, with wooden floors and elegant surroundings, there is a winter cherry blossom tree planted in the courtyard in front of the villa.
From inside the house, one can see the winter cherry blossom tree shedding pink petals.
At this mont, on the wooden boards in front of the villa, eleven figures kneel, with a thin elder sitting alone at a small wooden table in front.
The remaining ten figures kneel behind the table, with Asakawa Kaori sitting in the center of the ten.
All of them were dressed in white ninja suits, with a Mount Fuji emblem on the left chest, featuring snow dots on the peak, with the word "Asakawa" in Japanese on the mountain body.
Since the Asakawa clan's base was located under Mount Fuji, this emblem was the Asakawa family crest.
Donning such a white ninja suit with the family crest signified a significant collective action by the Asakawa family.
Among those kneeling in front of the thin elder, besides Asakawa Kaori, all were Earth-level ninja experts, each exuding a powerful aura.
However, at this mont, Asakawa Kaori, Asakawa Yuudou, and others sat upright, their eyes revealing inner respect, looking at the thin elder.
The thin elder was dressed in a loose kimono, his cheeks gaunt like sculpted from stone, giving an impression of great determination.
At this mont, with his eyes slightly closed, he seed to breathe not at all; yet, rely sitting there exuded a sense of inexplicable apprehension.
This thin elder was none other than the only Celestial Ninja of the Asakawa family, Asakawa Taiyi, a formidable force akin to the strongest Celestial Spirit Realm experts of the Huaxia Ancient Martial Realm.
Asakawa Taiyi was also the son of the previous Celestial Ninja lord Asakawa Lingyi of the Asakawa family. However, when Asakawa Lingyi led the family experts to Huaxia attempting to capture the Huaxia Yin Yang Family, he was gravely wounded by them and escaped back to the country, dying shortly thereafter.
His son, Asakawa Taiyi, exhibited extraordinary talent in Ninja Art, and decades later beca the only Celestial Ninja in the Asakawa family.
"Master Taiyi, yesterday afternoon, people from the Nangong and Shangguan Clans have left Feipu Manor, should we imdiately unite with the Chizuru, Aoki, and Munemasa clans to attack Feipu Manor?"
Asakawa Kaori asked with respectful expression.
At present, all the elite forces of the Asakawa clan have rushed to Huaxia, and even the most powerful Celestial Ninja Master Taiyi has also arrived in Huaxia.
