No exaggeration.
The second after he appeared, the whole world was silent to an unprecedented level!
Countless people gasped, held their breath, or widened their eyes. Some people holding things in their hands were even more shocked that the things fell directly to the ground, opening their mouths and eyes wide. Showing a ghostly expression.
"Fuck?!!!!"
"Is he a zombie?!!"
"Am I seeing right? This is really Zeke? Isn't he dead? The Phoenix Kingdom held a funeral for him!"
"Oh My God! Zeke actually came back to life?!"
"Look! It's really Zeke! He's not dead!!"
"What an international joke? Didn't many websites turn black and white some time ago, mourning for Zeke? Even those celebrities have all lit candles! So now they tell me that he's not dead?!"
"Oh oh oh!!! Great! Zeke is not dead! We have won this battle!!"
"Let those nine countries go to hell!"
"Zeke is back. We are going to win the war!!"
"Hahaha... Good! Great!! Long live Zeke!!!"
...
At the same time that countless people around the world were shocked, some people who were panicking about the war seemed to see hope, and they cheered happily one by one!
The outbreak of the world war, although it has not spread to the core cities within the country, the chaotic situation has caused countless people to fall into panic. They are afraid their peace will be broken one day when the war reaches them.
But now it's alright. Zeke's appearance is like a beacon, instantly lighting up the hopes of countless people!
The citizens of the Phoenix Kingdom were especially excited, and they kept shouting the slogan "Long live Zeke".
In their view, this is an impossible war to win.
Country A, Tonda Empire, Country J, Country G... such a lineup, coupled with the fact that these countries hold Nano Destruction Cannons, a weapon that can easily destroy Iron Man, makes all the Phoenix citizens feel desperate.
But now, they finally saw the only possible hope of winning this war.
Zeke's resurrection has become the greatest possibility to turn the tide of the war.
Everyone believes that this war will not be lost as long as Zeke is there!
...
"Elder Zeke! It's really Elder Zeke!!"
"Elder Zeke didn't die?! This... how is this possible?"
"Hahaha! Don't doubt him! I told you! How could a legendary figure like Elder Zeke die so easily? Our kingdom is finally saved!"
...
On the other hand, the admirals were also excited.
"It's really him...he's not dead..."
Grace even covered her mouth and held back her tears for a long time. The moment she saw Zeke, she finally couldn't help but burst into tears!
After Prime Minister Deron saw Zeke's figure on the screen, the familiar face, the familiar smile, and the familiar expression convinced him that Zeke was really not dead!
As a result, Prime Minister Deron finally showed a gratified smile.
"Sure enough... I knew that this kid won't die easily!"
In the office of the prime minister of Country U, North, who was still devastated by the information of the frontline battlefield, saw Zeke on the screen and suddenly stood up from the chair. His eyes burst with amazing brilliance, and his face couldn't help showing a happy smile.
This time, he was right!
The reason why North chose to get involved in this war was to stand on the disadvantaged side of the Phoenix Kingdom, on the one hand, to be able to share the new energy of the Cube Energy provided by the kingdom, and on the other hand, to bet on Zeke's return. The possibility of him not dying!
This was a daring gamble, and even Powell, the president of Country F, felt that North had gone crazy when he heard North's request for an alliance.
But in the end, North used the skills he mastered to persuade other leaders and let the countries such as Country F, Country CA, Country P, and Country AU agree to the alliance's request to fight against the Nine-Country Alliance together.
Now that it's over, they won the bet!
North sighed. The stone hanging in his heart quietly fell to the ground.
"He really didn't die... How on earth did he survive that level of destruction?"
Country CA's President Trent said in disbelief.
"It's a thrilling gamble! Zeke didn't let me down!"
Zardari, the president of Pakistan, said with a smile.
"I knew it... how could a great person die so easily? But I'm curious, what will you do with the Nano Destruction Cannon?"
Country AU's Prime Minister Holt's eyes flashed.
Compared to North's excitement, the leaders of the other countries are more concerned about how Zeke will deal with the existence of the Nano Destruction Cannon. After all, this thing can't be easily destroyed even by the Laser Iron Man and the Super Soldier team. If this fatal weapon can't be solved, even if Zeke is resurrected, it doesn't change their situation.
However, they are still delighted that Zeke can be "resurrected", at least it gives them enough confidence to win this war.
They were happy, but when they heard Zeke's voice, the Nine-Country Alliance and the others who were on the opposite side froze, and the smiles on their faces froze.
The pupils of these people suddenly shrank, and the frozen smile suddenly turned into horror and disbelief.
"How...how could this guy be alive?!"
Toshiki's eyes trembled, and his tone trembled slightly as if he remembered the fear of being targeted by Zeke in the past!
"He really didn't die?!"
The wine glass in Schmidt's hand fell straight to the ground, but because the floor was covered with a carpet, the wine glass did not shatter, but just like his heart, a cold beer dripping wantonly.
The other leaders of the Nine-Country Alliance were stunned, dazed, and terrified. Zeke's appearance was like a heart-piercing arrow, instantly bursting their confidence and making their hearts gush out fear!
"This is bad..."
In contrast, only Biblandi, the King of the Tonda Empire, and Moore, the President of Country A, were indifferent, but they still had a gloomy atmosphere in their hearts. They also felt that a dark shadow enveloped them!
Zeke reappeared after nearly half a year. It was supposed to be typical news, but because of the deadly incident that spread worldwide before, the whole world was shocked!
"I see!"
"There must be a lot of people who want me to die so ignorantly so they can take advantage of it and pick up the things I left behind after my death!"
"But it's a pity, I just retreated a little to study new technology, and it took a long time."
Zeke took a sip of red wine and said leisurely, "But what makes me a little surprised is that while I was in retreat, some people secretly touched my Phoenix Tree while I was away!"
Zeke's tone suddenly became cold.
"Not only that, but these people also hyped the news that I was dead. So forget me asking you guys, do you think I'm someone weak? It's just a mere Nano Destruction Cannon, which has grandly destroyed a few buildings. And after destroying a few battleships, do you really think you are invincible in the world?"
Zeke's mouth curled in disdain, "In order to give these people an announcement, I deliberately blacked out all internet signals in the world today, and I will personally come forward to refute the news of my death."
"At the same time, I have to announce three major events to these people in front of everyone in the world!"
Zeke's words made countless people quiet down, and their eyes had an intense curiosity.
The leaders of the nine countries were all pale at the moment, with cold sweat oozing from their foreheads. While quickly arranging intelligence personnel to find Zeke's location, they stared at him on the screen. They haven't lost yet!
As long as Zeke's location can be determined and the coordinates marked, all the nano-destruction missiles in the nine countries will be poured out without hesitation.
Even if this action would destroy a city and kill millions of people, the nine countries would not hesitate to do so!
"The first major event, here, I solemnly declare to everyone in the world that from this moment on, I, Zeke, officially leave the Phoenix Kingdom!"
Whoa!
The whole world was in an uproar as soon as this statement came out.
Leaving the Phoenix Kingdom?!
Why?
Is it because of the Phoenix Tree incident?
"This guy wants to leave the Phoenix Kingdom? What does he want to do?"
The leaders of the nine countries frowned deeply.
"Elder Zeke wants to leave our kingdom?!"
"Hey... we didn't protect the Phoenix Tree, so it's right for Elder Zeke to be angry!"
"The Phoenix Tree, as the company headquarters of Elder Zeke, was completely wiped out, and the news of his death was reported, but we couldn't do anything. Elder Zeke is extremely disappointed with us!"
"Actually, Elder Zeke should have been able to do this for a long time, but he has not acted..."
...
On the battleship, the admirals heard this, and all sighed.
From their point of view, Zeke already has the ability to break away from the Phoenix Kingdom and create his own domain. With the Iron Man Legion alone, he can become a part of any country in the world.
And now he chose to leave. Obviously, he was heartbroken by the Phoenix Tree incident and lost his trust in the kingdom!
"Zeke..."
Grace bit her lip with complicated eyes.
Zeke's departure from the Phoenix Kingdom means that the two parties will no longer be king and elder when they meet again. She is afraid that the memory of the past will be completely a thing of the past.
"I know that there will definitely be many people who think that I left the Phoenix Kingdom because of the Phoenix Tree incident...but that's not the case!"
"The Phoenix Tree is actually not that important to me. If I want to rebuild it, I can reproduce it anywhere, anytime!"
"I chose to leave the Phoenix Kingdom because the latter two things require this precondition."
Zeke's remarks relieved the Phoenix citizens, ministers, and elders.
"The second thing, today, at this moment, I, in my name, create a brand new kingdom, and I name it - Zanarkand Kingdom!"
His words are shocking.
As soon as Zeke's words came out, countless people were shocked again.
I see!
No wonder Zeke wanted to break away from the Phoenix Kingdom. He did not want to establish himself as a small force on the hilltop but to directly establish a country and compete for territory with others.
"My Zanarkand Kingdom is currently recruiting talented people from all sides, and I will disclose it on ZTech's official website in the future. If there are people who are interested, you're welcome to join my kingdom!"
Zeke directly gave a wave of advertisements.
In fact, he has always had the idea of building a kingdom.
It's just that he hates playing politics and doesn't want to be distracted by many state affairs, so he would rather be an elder who is below one person and above others.
But this time, he is going to do an earth-shattering event. To not implicate the Phoenix Kingdom's 100 million people, Zeke must leave them and do this as an independent person.
"The third thing."
Zeke stood up slowly, walked to the camera, and said in a solemn tone.
"Here, I announce to everyone in the world that I, Zeke, declare war on the nine countries of Country A, Country G, Country J, Country IY, Country MO, Country C, Country SK, Country EL, and Tonda Empire!
"Biblandi, Moore, Schmidt, Toshiki... When you joined forces to kill me, I believe you should have thought of today's ending, right?"
"Aren't you going to play with me? Just in time, let's have a good time!"
Zeke grinned.
"My army has been crushed, and the first target to attack is them."
As soon his voice fell, the screen on the monitor suddenly turned into the scene of the war between the Phoenix Kingdom and Country J on the edge of the sea between their territories.
The camera looks down from a high altitude, including the vast ocean below and many battleships at sea.
"This is... my country's warships!"
Toshiki recognized the sun flag flying on the warship at a glance, and there was a flash of panic in his eyes, but he quickly calmed down, "Don't be afraid... He is a paper tiger now, so don't be afraid!"
Immediately, Toshiki picked up the phone and called the commander-in-chief Jiro Okaku.
"Is Zeke at the scene? Then, immediately kill him no matter what strange things you see!"
"Yes!"
After the commander-in-chief received Toshiki's order, he decisively issued a battle order——
"Attack! Concentrate all your firepower and shoot down this spider-like giant flying saucer!"
