Japan Space-Time Strange Chronicles

The Shocking Truth

This is the first chapter this month.

When I did the arcade, I converted Mutsuki, and after that, I got Mutsuki Kai 2 by converted ship building (I don't know what that means). And I thought I got a holo of Umikaze, then I got a holo of Natori (also idk).

I am not sure if I am lucky or not, but I have not lost to Corona yet.

Japan, Ibaraki Prefecture, Oarai Harbor

The 1st Airborne Brigade that captured Hembu had arrived at Oarai Harbor in Japan, together with the 6th Escort Group, another new Escort Group that had built a new port in Kushiro, Hokkaido, and made its home base there, including the escort personnel and the second Akagi-class aircraft destroyer, the Amagi.

In a part of the new continent, in honor of USS Ronald Reagan, which played a major role in Operation Tomodachi, a new nation was established: the United States of America (the State of Reagan), with the US Ambassador to Japan as interim president. In line with this, most of the US military and related personnel who had been living in Japan emigrated to the new continent. The US military fleet previously stationed in Yokosuka and Sasebo, as well as part of the Marine Corps stationed in Okinawa, were also relocated.

This led to a solution to the Henoko problem, but the government and the private sector were troubled about how to utilize the surplus land, and in the end, the public and private sectors worked together to restore the sandy beach in order to restore the natural environment. However, this led not only to rare endemic species, but also to dangerous creatures such as habu jellyfish (Chironex yamaguchii), as well as Ichthyosaurs and Plesiosaurs that prefer a warm environment and are attracted to humans.

Surprisingly, the Plesiosaurs did not recognize humans playing in large numbers as food, or perhaps the feeding by some fools had been successful, but rather they had learned how to interact with humans. Nevertheless, they are still large creatures and dangerous.

This led the Coast Guard, which is patrolling the area at the request of Okinawa Prefecture, to say, "We want large vessels and anti-submarine equipment because they are difficult to deal with!"

Later, the third and fourth Akitsushima-class patrol vessels would be equipped with active sonar and triple short torpedo tubes, based on the experience of building the Pistorix-class cruisers.

Anyway.

All destroyers other than the Amagi were built following the Akizuki and Asahi classes, respectively, so their names also follow the same pattern. There was talk about whether it would be possible to reproduce the Akizuki-class destroyers that had been discontinued once, but fortunately, the Shiranui had been built as the Asahi-class after the transference, and there was enough know-how, except for the system. Therefore, there was an air of confidence that the extension could be managed as long as financial resources could be secured.

Surprisingly for the ruling party, however, the Diet passed the bill with near unanimity.

Behind this, the ruling party had a great interest in acquiring the continent and various interests, and the opposition party also had the instinct of self-preservation, saying that if the United States disappears, they will have to do something on their own. In particular, the fact that a hegemonic nation in Europe was found in the information received from the continental tribes immediately after the transference also had an impact.
