Chapter 580: Chapter 292: The Arrival of the Aircraft Carrier, See If You Get Flustered_2

Cecil didn’t respond; his attention was still firmly fixed on the aircraft carrier fleet that was gradually approaching the island.

Meanwhile, in the command room of the USS Washington, Lindon was also watching the image of the distant island appearing on the big screen. He said to David next to him, “Director David, that should be the island you’re looking for.”

“Notify our people, get ready to board!”

After instructing Nisen, David turned to Lindon and said, “Captain Lindon, let’s go ‘fishing.’”

“No problem.”

Lindon immediately understood David’s intention and snapped his fingers to summon a subordinate, giving a few orders.

Minutes later, the gun muzzle of a destroyer on the left suddenly opened, and a Tomahawk cruise missile was launched, rocketing towards the distant island at an astonishing speed.

“Not good, that’s a missile!”

On the island, Captain Sese and his men were not blind. They naturally saw the Tomahawk cruise missile hurtling towards them, their minds went blank, unable to even muster the instinctive reactions to dodge or flee.

Firstly, the mere presence of this aircraft carrier fleet had already exerted immense psychological pressure on them, and now a missile had been fired in their direction—who could dare say it wasn’t aimed at them?

And if this aircraft carrier fleet really was targeting them, then what was the point in trying to escape from such an overwhelming weapon?

There was no point at all!

The gazes of Sese and his men gradually became desperate; some even closed their eyes and began to pray silently in their hearts.

The next second, a massive roar reached them, making them instinctively cover their ears.

After a long moment, realizing they were unharmed, they slowly opened their eyes to see towering waves churning up a hundred meters away from them.

The expressions on Sese and his men’s faces were those of individuals who had just survived a disaster. It seemed the fleet wasn’t there to annihilate them but rather to send a warning.

“Captain Sese, this fleet must be here for us. We should go back and report to the Archbishop and the others,” one of his subordinates reminded him.

Snapping out of it, Sese immediately jumped into a Jeep, heading back to the central building on the island.

Here, under the incitement of the three Archbishops, including Augustine, all the members of the Illuminati were saying that they must give David a hard time when he arrived.

But unexpectedly, while they were all fired up, a loud noise shattered the silence at the scene, making everyone instinctively cover their ears.

“What’s going on, what happened?”

Once they had regained their composure, the members of the Illuminati were all in a state of confusion.

Where the hell did that explosion come from?

To clarify the situation, Augustine immediately instructed a black-clad bodyguard nearby, “Go see what happened.”

Seven or eight minutes later, the bodyguard returned, accompanied by Cecil, who had hurriedly arrived. He said with a grave expression, “It’s bad, Archbishop Augustine. An aircraft carrier fleet is heading our way, and they just launched a missile that seemed to be a warning to us.”

“What did you say! Where did this aircraft carrier fleet come from?”

Not just Augustine, but the other members of the Illuminati also had their eyes widened upon hearing this.

“It seems to be America’s USS Washington.”

“The USS Washington!”

Hearing Sese’s words again, a terrifying thought suddenly arose in the minds of many present—could this be a fleet David had called in?

But as powerful as the IRS’s armed forces were, bringing an entire aircraft carrier fleet to negotiate was a bit too exaggerated, wasn’t it?

With this in mind, Augustine, with a serious demeanor, turned to an America Navy Commodore present and asked, “Peter, do you have any information about this?”

“As far as I know, the USS Washington should be docked at the Port of Los Angeles for resupply these days. I’m not too clear about other matters,” he replied.

Although the rank of Navy Rear Admiral is not low, only the most senior commanders can mobilize an aircraft carrier, so they were also not quite sure why the USS Washington had appeared here.

“Boom boom boom!!!”

Before everyone could discuss and figure out a reason, a series of massive sonic booms once again reached everyone’s ears, and this time Augustine could no longer sit still. He took the lead and headed towards the main gate, with the rest of the Illuminati members following him out.

Outside, they looked up into the sky and saw warplanes constantly sweeping over the airspace of their island, and naturally, the sonic booms they had heard were from these warplanes.

“What, don’t act rashly, follow my command!”

Sese seemed to have received some important notice through his earpiece and then turned to speak to Augustine, “Archbishop Augustine, the armed personnel from the aircraft carrier have already boarded speedboats and are preparing to land on the island, what should we do?!”

Augustine’s face had already turned extremely grim, as he was certain that the newcomers were essentially David, otherwise no one would dare to run wild in the Illuminati’s territory.

“Don’t open fire, let them come up!”

It was Sandy who spoke those words.

Regardless of who the visitors were, their aircraft carrier fleet was right there, and with so many fighter jets in the sky, if they dared to resist, they wouldn’t even know how they died.

“Follow my command, do not open fire, let them land on the island.”

Sese also immediately relayed the instruction through his earpiece to his men on the island.

The island was not very large, and without meeting any resistance, it only took about twenty minutes for the Tax Bureau’s armed personnel to have taken control of various strong points, and Colonel Fernan Prieto himself had directly arrived at the central building in front of Augustine and the others.

“It really is the Tax Bureau’s people!”

From the attire of Colonel Fernan Prieto and other armed personnel, the Illuminati members had seen the Tax Bureau’s insignia, confirming that the newcomers were indeed David’s men.

Without paying any attention to the hostile gazes from everyone, Fernan Prieto spoke into his earpiece, “OK, Director David.”

On the USS Washington, having heard that control of the island had been secured, David and Nisen Bakesimmons among others finally left the command room and headed to the deck to board a Black Hawk helicopter, flying toward the island.

It took only about seven or eight minutes for the helicopter to arrive at the central building of the island and slowly descend.

As the cabin door opened, David and his entourage stepped down and looked at the crowd before him, feeling a silent shock in his heart.

Because he also recognized that many of the Illuminati members present were indeed high-ranking officials of America.

It was no wonder then why Augustine had invited him to come over and flex their muscles.

“David, what the hell do you mean by this? We extended an invitation to talk sincerely, but why did you bring the aircraft carrier here?”

“David, I’m not blaming you or the Tax Bureau for how you operate, but for you to parade the nation’s strategic weapons here is simply a waste of taxpayer money. When I get back, I will definitely impeach you in Congress!”

“David…”

Upon David’s arrival, a barrage of cursing erupted from those present.

Each person there could shake the whole of America with a stomp of their foot, yet today they found themselves surrounded like lambs.

The Illuminati had never felt as frustrated as they did today since the organization’s inception.

David looked at the Congressman who accused him of wasting taxpayer money and replied with disdain, “Congressman Matipan, if you hope to see the W Law Bill fail, then I welcome you to impeach me when you get back.”

“You…”

The man known as Matipan was beside himself with anger.

The W Law Bill was the current mainstream policy in Congress. If it failed because of him, not only would the Speaker of the House not let him off the hook, but those congress members with vested interests would definitely turn their anger towards him.

So threatening to impeach David in Congress was essentially suicidal under the current circumstances.
