A rate of Mach 5.5 signified that the speed of the Super Battleship at this moment had reached five and a half times the speed of sound - a staggering 1870 meters per second!
Raine was fully immersed within the warplane, basking in the thrill of this unparalleled velocity.
As the aircraft sped along, it left a lengthy trail on the sea surface, stirring up gigantic waves.
This sensation was manifoldly more exhilarating than his flights with wings. Soaring above the dragon-class sea at such a supersonic speed felt incredibly invigorating.
Having flown for a dozen or so minutes, Raine conveniently modified the aircraft's nuclear power system on the go.
Drawing energy from the Fire Heaven Crystal, the speed of the Super Battleship increased by another half Mach, reaching six times the speed of sound!
"Exhilarating!" Raine roared, "Now, this is what a Super Battleship should be!"
The new battleship boasted five forms, capable of combat in three environments - the sky, the sea surface, and under the sea. Furthermore, it balanced perfectly between offensive and defensive capabilities.
With this Super Battleship, Raine finally had the confidence to venture into the sky-class sea.
The Super Battleship hovered steadily before the crowd, eventually descending and landing gently on the sea surface.
When Raine returned to his body, he found that everyone around him was still in a state of shock.
"Hey, who said I made a mistake in building the ship?" Raine looked at the group with a smile that wasn't quite a smile, "I remember someone said my mind wasn't right?"
No one dared to move.
"Cough cough, Captain, you must have heard wrong. How could our captain possibly build a ship wrong?" Onebear quickly explained, "Captain, can we go and experience it? I can't wait now, let us fly too."
"Hehe, Captain, you're the coolest, let us also have some fun!" Fancy pulled Raine back and forth, making Raine dizzy.
"Um, Captain, this battleship... can you build a few more in the future? Can I control one?" Shobe nudged Raine and cast a flirtatious glance at him.
"I want one too! Captain, build a few more, this battleship is too cool!"
"I want one too, I want one too!"
Raine was nearly torn apart by a group of people, he quickly waved his hand to break free, "Stop stop stop! You guys really say it easy, standing up and talking without any back pain, do you know how much material it takes to build one? Besides, only the main ship is finished, there are still fighters to be built."
"You don't need to be anxious, if conditions permit, I will definitely build a few more, but not now. Avril, you take everyone onto the ship to familiarize yourselves, I'll be here building the new type of fighter."
Charge King asked curiously, "Captain, there's a new fighter?"
"Yes! The new fighter is a super-high-speed fighter, the Sky Extreme Type."
Raine thought for a moment, and said, "Right, the Twin Aircraft Carrier will be recycled later, but the fighters will not be recycled. First, put all the Sea Spear fighters from the three aircraft carriers into the furnace and replace them all with Sea Fury fighters."
"As you command, Leader." Charge King, Avril, and Trajan immediately went to handle the Sea Spear fighters.
After transferring all aircraft from the Gemini Aircraft Carrier, the system recalled it, while Raine remained on board the Avril, continuing to construct new models.
The Sky Extreme aircraft was strikingly different in appearance from conventional models. It resembled a crab claw, with sharp, forward-pointing wings on either side, while the cockpit and propulsion system resided at the center.
The Sky Extreme aircraft's missile bay could be equipped with the Sky Extreme series missiles, maintaining a unified standard with the super aircraft's missile system.
But the most eye-catching feature was its wing-mounted guns. Both wings could simultaneously launch "Electromagnetic Railgun" and "Metal Storm"!
The power of the Electromagnetic Railgun relied on the projectile's damage potential. Although this technology only slightly enhanced the weapon's attack power, the true terror lay in its projectile speed and range.
Unlike traditional cannons that relied on gas pressure from ignited gunpowder to propel bullets, railguns utilized electromagnetic fields in the electromagnetic system. This resulted in a much longer action time, significantly improving projectile speed and range.
Using Sky Extreme missiles launched through electromagnetic rails, the projectile speed could reach Mach 9, with an astounding maximum range of 300 kilometers!
The terror of the Metal Storm lay in its astonishing firing rate. The Sky Extreme aircraft's "Metal Storm" could launch 20,000 rounds per second!
Equipped with these two top-tier high-tech weapons and possessing an ultra-high top speed of Mach 8, the Sky Extreme aircraft's super-long-range attack capability and close-quarters combat abilities completely outclassed the Sea Fury aircraft!
If not for the high cost of the Sky Extreme aircraft, Raine would have loved to replace all his air fleet with them.
The cost of 300 Sky Extreme aircraft was nearly equivalent to that of an entire Super Battleship.
The abundance of resources from the Dragon-class sea continued to be delivered to the furnace. Under such logistical support, it took Raine a year to fully replenish the Sky Extreme aircraft Yet Raine's construction efforts did not cease there.
He commenced the rebuild of his fleet! This comprehensive reorganization took eight years. Eight years later, Raine's fleet underwent a significant transformation.
Two Super Battleships! Twelve Gemini Aircraft Carriers!
All Gemini Aircraft Carriers were equipped with Sea Fury Aircraft. Three light carriers and 24 optimized Yamato-class ships were all recalled.
Considering the Gemini Aircraft Carriers and amphibious mothership submarines weren't particularly powerful, Raine retained 13 submarine units.
After restructuring, Raine's number of battleships significantly reduced, yet their tri-environment combat capabilities remained as potent.
Four Gemini Aircraft Carriers formed one unit, divided into three units, with Trajan, Trueking, and Charge King respectively leading the first, second, and third unit fleets.
Moreover, since the Gemini Aircraft Carriers could split into two parts, the position of deputy fleet captain was added.
Raine personally piloted the first Super Battleship, while Avril controlled the second.
Although Avril was not born into the navy, she demonstrated outstanding awareness and command capabilities in past battles, whether in fleet combat or individual crew combat. Raine believed she was well qualified to be a top-class fleet captain.
The submarine unit was still led by Scout as fleet captain.
Thus, the Bounty Squad had formed a comprehensive fleet system encompassing air, sea surface, and sea bottom.
Worth mentioning was that, during this ten-year preparation period, figures like Magnus, Bodhid, Irene, Boone, Zark, and others demonstrated ample loyalty.
They diligently worked at their respective posts, with the Dragon-class sea's order showing marked improvement, truly a picture of stability and prosperity!
Given this, Raine would not neglect these experienced, legendary captains, promoting the five to deputy captains of the Gemini Aircraft Carriers.
On this day, Raine finally had the time to recline on the Flowing Gold Island beach, basking in the sun.
Island Lord Archie naturally was willing to spend time with this old friend.
"When do you plan to depart, Raine?" Archie suddenly asked.
Raine smiled faintly, sensing Archie's keen intuition about his imminent departure.
"Soon," Raine replied calmly.
Archie fell silent for a moment, then smiled subtly, "Hmm, you've timed this quite precisely."
"Eh? What timing?" Raine inquired, puzzled.
"I've calculated the time, a year from now, that Sea God Ancient Tree in the Sky-class sea area should also bear Sea God fruit," Archie squinted his eyes.
