Island Nation, Tokyo, Island Nation Meteorological Department.
Every typhoon season, the Meteorological Department would be extremely busy, mobilizing everyone to observe and predict storms that might hit the mainland. Although the Meteorological Department was only established after World War II, the Island Nation had many experts and scholars studying typhoons at the beginning of the 20th century.
After all, the entire country was at the forefront of typhoons in the western Pacific Ocean. Every year, there would be more or less typhoon disasters. Every typhoon would leave a mess behind, but the good thing was that it brought abundant rainfall and agricultural development.
"In the end, it's still coming our way. Has it already left the Izu Peninsula?"
The staff of the Meteorological Department took a sip of water and stretched. "It should pass by the side of Tokyo. It's not a big problem."
A few days ago, after discovering the disturbance in the Pacific Ocean, there were signs of curling within a few hours. Then, it was quickly upgraded to a super typhoon and a wind king. This upgrade speed was even faster than a game player with a cheat.
It was extremely difficult to accurately predict the track of a typhoon. Even with a supercomputer, it was impossible to completely simulate the atmospheric environment of the earth and the interference of other typhoons. It could only give a few possible routes and then slowly correct the track of the typhoon.
But unfortunately, the path of Hai Beth just happened to hit the ending that the Meteorological Department did not want. After making a big turn in the southern waters, it headed toward the Island Nation.
This was not the strongest typhoon that the Island Nation had ever encountered, but it was one of the few super typhoons that had happened around Tokyo in a hundred years. Otherwise, even if this typhoon was a few times stronger, as long as it passed through the rural areas, it would not attract too much attention from all walks of life.
The newspapers and news had long exaggerated the typhoon to no end, as if it was a Kanto earthquake that had fallen from the sky. It would be a shame if the media did not kill tens of thousands of people, but the Meteorological Department was well aware of the damage that this typhoon might cause.
"But just passing by the side of Tokyo is enough... the sky has changed."
The staff sat on a chair and turned his head to look at the sky. The sky, which should have been bright, had turned into a large patch of purple-black. It looked as if some great demon was about to descend and destroy the world, menacing and terrifying.
"If something really happens, I hope that the Lord of Nebula M78 can save us, or a guy who can transform into a gorilla."
"Can't we just let the Lord of Yoyogi's Sacred Tree save us?"
They chatted aimlessly. The work of the Meteorological Department had come to an end, and there were no more urgent matters.
The huge disasters and casualties caused by the typhoon were things that other departments and the insurance industry needed to be busy with. It had nothing to do with conscientious observers like them.
Unless the typhoon suddenly performed an amazing performance, it would make the Meteorological Department nervous. However, this kind of thing was impossible. The typhoon was about to pass by Tokyo. It was impossible for it to suddenly change direction. There was no problem!
"Hello … Hmm, I won't be going home for the next few days. I can't go home in this weather. Just stay at home and take care of yourself." A staff member was holding his phone, staring at the screen with widened eyes.
His body trembled uncontrollably.
"What happened?"
His colleague noticed that something was wrong with him. Could it be that his wife, who stayed at home, was panting and running? Was that why he was so emotionally unstable?
But today, he did not get off work early. There was no reason.
"Station!
The track of the typhoon has changed! "
"What?"
The typhoon that had already landed on the Izu Peninsula suddenly had a new change. The distance from Izu to Tokyo was only about 100 kilometers. In front of a typhoon that affected a range of thousands of kilometers, 100 kilometers was nothing at all. Logically, there should not be any change in the track at such a close distance. It would only gently brush the periphery of Tokyo.
However, the path shown by the supercomputer was shocking. The typhoon, which should not have changed its track, was like a car out of control, violently turning the steering wheel toward the Pacific Ocean in the east.
It was as if Honshu had an invisible enchantment that covered the country and bounced off Hai Beth.
"What's going on?"
"I … I don't know. I'm not a supercomputer. But if it bounced toward the Pacific Ocean, wouldn't it be great?"
"Yes, yes. After reaching the Pacific Ocean, only some wind and rain will hit Tokyo. It will not go inland."
According to Hai Beth's original route, the Kanto East Sea area should have been damaged. This was the most important area of the Island Nation, and it could not withstand too much trouble. However, if it was bounced off the Izu Peninsula, there would be no problem.
Although he didn't know what had happened, it was a cause for celebration, a cause for celebration.
"It has been reported to the higher-ups. It's amazing."
"This must be extraordinary power."
A staff member slapped his thigh, feeling that he had found the truth. "Only extraordinary power can change the track of the typhoon. There must be a god protecting our country."
"That must be it."
The observers, who had received decades of scientific education, could now recognize supernatural power with peace of mind. In any case, it was only useful to ordinary people like them. It did not matter what kind of power it was.
As they spoke, everyone's eyes unconsciously looked out the window, looking at the towering Yoyogi Sacred Tree.
"It must be the Lord Sacred Tree."
"God bless our country."
The towering Yoyogi Sacred Tree could also be seen in the office building of the Meteorological Department. It had become a landmark and spiritual symbol of Tokyo.
The same doubts appeared in the monitoring agencies of various countries around the world. Everyone watched the typhoon make a strange turn in the Izu Peninsula.
At the same time, a big question mark appeared in their minds.
Human technology had advanced a lot compared to thousands of years ago. Moving mountains and filling seas, flying into the Ninth Heaven, and touching the stars were no longer a fantasy. However, for natural activities such as typhoons that involved the internal forces of the earth, human technology could not do anything about it. Even observation and prediction had some speculations.
If any country could secretly adjust and create typhoons, nuclear bombs would probably be slightly inferior.
However, even if it deviated from its original track, Tokyo was still in the range of the typhoon. The sky was dark purple and gloomy, and the whole world could fall into endless death at any time.
"The typhoon was bounced off?"
"Yes, it's heading northeast. It is estimated that it will leave the range of Honshu in five hours. God bless our country."
Island nation insiders cheered. In order to deal with this rare typhoon, various departments of the Island nation had made various preparations. There would not be too many losses, but wouldn't it be better if the typhoon changed its track?
Moreover, they could also use public opinion to respond, increase their support rate, and achieve some unspeakable political goals.
For example, in order to celebrate the first year of Reiwa, or other statements such as God bless the Island nation, and so on. Now that transcendents had appeared in the world, such statements had once again taken over the market.
The Papal State had to limit the number of people who went to worship, but it did not affect the pious believers from all over the world who worshiped outside the Papal City.
Politicians also liked to use these extraordinary tricks to increase their support rate. They might even be fooled into believing it themselves.
However, just when everyone was immersed in joy, the track of the typhoon on the screen changed like a devil.
It had just shown signs of turning back to the Pacific Ocean, but now it immediately turned back, and its target was Tokyo Bay!
"No, this is bad!
The typhoon is turning back! "
"What?"
"And it's heading straight for the port area, the Chiyoda-ku line!"
"There's definitely something wrong with this typhoon. How could it have such a change in track? It's a transcendent. It's definitely a transcendent controlling the typhoon."
"A transcendent who can control a typhoon?"
The cold of winter hit everyone's bodies in advance, and they shivered all over. What kind of bad luck did the Island nation have to be targeted by such a transcendent?
Excluding all the scientific impossibilities, what was left must be transcendent metaphysics.
An image of a terrifying beast instantly appeared in their minds. It might not be the giant serpent that circled the world in Norse mythology, but it had to be at least ten times the size of a blue whale. Otherwise, how could it have such extraordinary ability?
"How can it be repaired? There's no time to reinforce Saitama District."
"Are we going to face the typhoon like this?"
"What else can we do?"
Like Tokyo, the benevolent capital of a country, every time a typhoon came, it would certainly be prepared to the highest level of alert. After years of repair and reinforcement, Tokyo's typhoon defense fortifications were not comparable to other places.
Therefore, the real problem was not in Tokyo, but in other areas of Kanto. Inland districts like Saitama District were only at the periphery of the typhoon, and they were not fully prepared. If the typhoon changed its track, Saitama District would undoubtedly be affected after Tokyo.
That would be a big joke!
"Tell Saitama District to be on guard!"
The upper echelons of Tokyo were almost bald from worry recently. They were overwhelmed by one unexpected incident after another, and they were not given any time to breathe. It was as if they were living in war every day.
They were still humiliatingly collecting feathers in front of America's father country, and they were preparing to present them to their superiors. Meanwhile, a transcendent was controlling the typhoon to attack Honshu. What good things did these islands have that the transcendent was coveting?
"Also, Yoyogi Sacred Tree Taisha!
Ask Lord Sacred Tree what's going on with the typhoon … Oh right, and Minister Yuriwaku … "
"Minister Yuriwaku better not. We haven't had enough contact with him. It's better to be safe."
"Mm!"
Tokyo Bay, which was still in a mess due to the tsunami a few days ago, instantly roared again.
It was not a joke to face a super typhoon head-on. If it passed through the center of Tokyo, there was no telling how much economic loss it would cause.
…
The eye of the typhoon.
The strange silence formed a stark contrast with the typhoon that spread over thousands of kilometers. Little Q, who was in the eye of the typhoon, appeared even more helpless.
Sunlight shone down from the top, making Little Q look innocent and pitiful. It used all its strength to race against the typhoon. Just flying like this made it pant, but Little Q did not dare to stop at all. As long as it did not keep up with the speed of the typhoon, it would be torn into pieces violently.
"This is impossible, this is impossible. How is it possible to control the trajectory of the typhoon … Even if Mizuno came personally, he wouldn't be able to do it!"
Little Q looked at the typhoon wall a few hundred meters behind him in horror. It would be over if it was sucked into it.
The top of the typhoon seemed to be space. Although it was seawater below, Little Q reckoned that if it plunged into the seawater, it would probably be swept up by the typhoon together with the seawater and be torn into dog meat soup.
"Eh!!" Sensing the approaching typhoon, it cried out in panic and flew forward.
Although the speed of the huge typhoon was not as fast as an ordinary aircraft, it was still as fast as the terrifying speed of a high-speed rail. If it flew at full speed, Little Q was naturally not afraid of this little speed. However, it was a long marathon now, and it was a competition of stamina.
However, it was not a solution to keep flying like this. Even if it managed to survive the typhoon, Mizuno would throw it into another typhoon. How was it going to end these terrifying days?
"A bad life is better than a good death …" Little Q flapped its four legs. "If I can survive this time, I can definitely survive the next one. Otherwise, I'll just continue wasting my time with Mizuno."
"I'll definitely win in the end. It's possible!" It nodded heavily in the end, as if it was boosting its confidence.
Half of the Chakra in its body had been consumed, but Little Q also felt that the typhoon was gradually weakening. It could definitely survive this Heaven and Earth Energy. Even if its Chakra could not withstand it at the last moment, the typhoon's power would not be able to do much harm to it.
However, things were not as simple as Little Q imagined. Under the influence of the subtropical high, Harbeth suddenly changed its trajectory like a billiard ball. A billiard ball was hit and crashed towards the north.
The sudden change in direction also caused the typhoon to speed up. Like a car that had been hit, it sped up uncontrollably under the influence of inertia and other forces.
"What?!"
Everything happened too suddenly. Before Little Q could react, it was sucked into the typhoon's tail.
Its tail was not long, but the typhoon's suction was strong enough.
I'm going to be sucked away!
This was Little Q's first reaction. Before it could form a second reaction in its mind, it was thrown into the washing machine of the typhoon.
I'm … I'm going to die!
Mizuno … Big Brother … Big Brother, save me. Little Q sought help from the only God in the world. Unfortunately, the God did not have much interest in saving an idiot.
Feeling its body being torn apart, Little Q's consciousness fell into chaos. Pain and confusion occupied all the nerves in its brain.
This was not a joke. Mizuno really did not care about its life or death. If it did not struggle, it would die in the typhoon!
"F * ck!
Don't force me to release the bloodline in my body! "
It was a pity that after shouting for a long time, it could not activate any ancestral bloodline in its body, nor could it release any sealed demon beasts.
On the contrary, it became more and more chaotic in the typhoon. I'm really going to die, I'm really going to die.
A pair of cold eyes stared at Little Q in the dark. It had no intention of making a move.
