Two Realms Shuttle Gate: Don't Call Me a Demon!
Chapter 788 - 443: Total Annihilation of Country A Navy's Main Force_2

His old arms and legs couldn't compete with others, and he was pushed off the lifeboat and fell into the sea.

Luckily, there was a floating rubber tire right next to him, which he held onto tightly, carried away from the vicinity of the Vikrant-class aircraft carrier by the waves.

Scenes of chaos like this were happening everywhere on the Vikrant-class aircraft carrier, including other warships.

The corrupt military discipline and regulations of India's army were not just confined to the army; the navy was the same.

This outbreak made the death toll even higher, with many not dying at the hands of the Jieke Group's attack but at the hands of their own.

More anti-ship missiles came in, because now on the sea surface, all other Indian warships had sunk, leaving only the Vikrant as the sole target, with all anti-ship missiles homing in on it.

The Vikrant also became the most devastated warship of this naval battle.

Its resistance to sinking brought even harsher blows upon itself.

Causing many Indian Navy soldiers on board to suffer ongoing bombing from anti-ship missiles.

It's hard to determine precisely how many anti-ship missiles hit, whether for the Indian Navy soldiers or the attacking Devourer-class cruisers.

Only wave after wave of terrifying explosions could be seen ravaging the aircraft carrier, from the bow to the stern, from the island to below the waterline, repeatedly tormenting the high-strength steel of the carrier.

Afterward, according to the navy soldier who jumped into the sea near the Vikrant, he held a lifebuoy and saw at least 13 explosions occur on the Vikrant-class aircraft carrier.

Later, during a media interview, this navy soldier said tearfully, "When the Vikrant sank, its entire body structure was completely deformed; I couldn't recognize its shape anymore."

What delivered the fatal blow to the Vikrant-class aircraft carrier was an explosion from the fuel depot.

An anti-ship missile penetrated the aircraft carrier's oil depot, igniting the heavy fuel on the carrier, leading to a disastrous explosion.

The massive explosion even lifted the carrier out of the water, and the raging flames turned the Vikrant-class aircraft carrier into a fiery coffin afloat on the sea, with sailors engulfed in flames screaming and jumping into the sea to escape.

The entire warship burned on the sea surface for a long time, and when several Devourer-class cruisers arrived, they witnessed the Vikrant-class aircraft carrier engulfed in flames and smoke, slowly capsizing and sinking into the icy sea.

Even when the carrier's island masts sank into the water, one could still see the unextinguished fire burning inside the Vikrant through the sea surface.

Like a red meteor falling into the sea, illuminating the surrounding sea area until it was completely consumed by the deep ocean.

This domestic carrier, which India hailed as its pride, sank with only 87 out of 1400 navy soldiers onboard rescued.

Among the rescued was Kumar, the fleet commander.

He was lucky to survive the battle, and when Jieke Group soldiers found him, he was already semi-conscious, requiring significant resuscitation to survive, becoming the highest-ranking Indian officer captured by the Jieke Group.

...

Several hours later, aboard the arriving Ilova River Devourer cruiser, Peng Hongtai stood at the bow, looking around.

All over the ocean were Indian navy soldiers calling for help after falling into the water, with Jieke Group's rescue speedboats rescuing them one by one.

Numerous bodies also floated on the sea surface, constantly washed by the waves.

The blood attracted some foraging sharks, but humans were not preferred food for sharks, who would often take a bite, find the lack of fat displeasing, and leave, swinging their tail fins.

Many more soldiers who had jumped into the sea couldn't even have their bodies found, having sunk into the ocean, and could only be listed as missing.

On-site, several dead Indian warships belly-flopped on the sea surface, flipped over like dead fish, while the Devourer cruisers were using torpedoes to ensure their complete descent into the sea.

At this time, it was just 11:20 am, the sun was blazing, but this sea area felt like one had arrived at the Nether River, with the flowing bodies giving a bone-chilling sense of cold.

A speedboat came up to the side of the Ilova River, bringing one person aboard.

That person was none other than Kumar, the fleet commander.

Kumar was terrified; he had once boarded a Beautiful Country's nuclear-powered aircraft carrier, but when faced with the Devourer cruiser, he felt the combination of biological and steel Arsenal Ship brought a shock comparable to a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier.

"I am Peng Hongtai, commander of the Jieke Group's First Fleet, and this might be our first interaction, also possibly the last."

Peng Hongtai turned around and scrutinized Kumar, the commander.

Now, Kumar's splendid admiral uniform was soaked by seawater, with disheveled and wet hair, contrasting starkly with Peng Hongtai's neat military attire, making him appear very downcast and embarrassed.

The escorting soldiers removed his exquisite sidearm from his waist and handed it to Peng Hongtai, leaving Kumar glaring in anger, yet powerless.

Peng Hongtai examined it, handed the gun to the soldier next to him, then pointed to the sea, "Speaking of this battle, I have to thank you for your cooperation, without which we couldn't have completely annihilated your fleet."

Upon hearing these words, Kumar's face turned extremely unpleasant.

He regretted deeply, knowing that if he had known the might of the Devourer cruiser earlier, he would never have ventured with the carrier fleet to court death, but now it's too late to say anything.

"Your Excellency is merely relying on novel warships for a brief moment of triumph; once your ships are thoroughly researched, and when the Beautiful Country's dual-carrier battle group arrives, it will be the day of your demise."

Not losing composure despite defeat, Kumar knew his fate wouldn't be great, so he spoke unyieldingly.

"Many have also claimed to want to crack our Mecha, yet until today, no force has presented any results."

Peng Hongtai smiled and shook his head, paying no heed to Kumar's impotent rage.

Leaning against the ship's side, the sharp bow cutting through waves, he continued, "As for the dual-carrier battle group of the Beautiful Country you mentioned, I rather look forward to crossing swords with them; your India's navy is too lacking in combat prowess, I wish to gauge the quality of their Beautiful Country, hailed as Blue Star's top navy."

"Arrogant!"

Watching Peng Hongtai's spirited demeanor, Kumar was already filled with regret.

He could only hope that the Beautiful Country could teach the Jieke Group a lesson, destroy their Stealth Cruisers.

Otherwise, henceforth in the Indian Ocean and Southeast Asia sea areas, all countries would have to bow to the Jieke Group, subject to their gunboat diplomacy threats.

"Take him below deck, but don't mistreat him; after all, he's the highest-ranking Indian officer we've captured, let's see if India is willing to pay a ransom."

Peng Hongtai waved his hand, losing interest in continuing the conversation with Kumar, his defeated subordinate.

Looking back at the sea, where the blue sky met the sea surface, surrounded by shipwrecks and bodies, demoralized Indian wounded and survivors forming a sharp contrast with the excited Jieke Group navy soldiers.

"Commander, the battle results have been compiled."

At this moment, the deputy came over, holding a statistical report for Peng Hongtai to review.

Peng Hongtai lowered his head to read the document, then lifted his gaze toward the distance, the salty sea breeze brushing his face as he saw the surrounding six majestic Devourer-class cruisers. A sense of grandeur arose within him, and he spoke loudly to the deputy, "Write for me, to honor the great Commander Su, our First Fleet successfully ambushed India's carrier fleet in the Bay of Bengal at 7:24 am on March 12."

In this engagement, we sank the Indian Navy's Vikrant-class aircraft carrier, Kolkata-class Destroyer, Rajput-class destroyer, Chennai-class Destroyer, Shivalik-class Frigate, Enemy Slayer Nuclear Submarine... totaling 30 enemy ships, achieving complete destruction of the enemy fleet.

After this battle, India's navy's main forces were utterly lost, so our group navy can now turn the Bay of Bengal into an inland sea, intimidate the Southeast Asia sea area, and dominate the Indian Ocean, becoming the new ruler of these seas."

The deputy meticulously recorded every word said by Peng Hongtai, then ran off excitedly to transmit the tidings, broadcasting this victorious news back to the Jieke Group via radio.
