"Captain, the Giant Pit Fortress and Ancha Island are fully fortified. If the Pope dares to make a move, our fully armed Navy can definitely keep him here."
James handed the various defense schematics to Charles, who picked them up and examined them carefully.
"I know Hope Island's technology is improving rapidly, but don't get complacent. Technology alone won't be enough to contain the Pope."
"The problem right now isn't him showing up, but him *not* showing up. With all the Abyss-Sea's strength gathered here, he can't cause much trouble on his own. But if he keeps hiding, he'll waste a lot of my time."
Charles returned the papers to James. "Margaret is in charge of Ancha Island now. Report to her about these matters from now on. I have something more important to attend to."
James looked very surprised. "Besides this, what else is there, sir?"
"Family business." Charles stood up, waving through the window at Shanshan, who was already waiting for him outside.
