The sudden sinking of the Chuyun was like a thunderclap. Witnessing all this, many Japanese warships were still at a loss, as they saw the enormous battleship once again turning its guns.

"Turret No. 2 ready, port side adjusted!"

"Turret No. 3 starboard ready, charging complete!"

"All guns and combat systems activated, entering full war state."

On the Yuan Shou Battlecruiser, a series of combat commands were issued.

Destroying the Chuyun was just the beginning. With the rotation of the three triple-mounted 600mm Biological Plasma Cannons, the thousand-ton turrets aimed at the Japanese destroyers and escort ships on the front and both sides.

"Fire!"

Accompanied by the fire commander's order, the battleship's main guns unleashed a dazzling blue glow.

The Biological Plasma Bombs shot out of the barrels at dozens of times the speed of sound. The high-temperature plasma energy shells looked like glowing, round balls, but when they hit a warship, they would burst instantly, releasing horrifying high-temperature energy and shock waves.

Because the Yuan Shou Battlecruiser suddenly appeared, surfacing in the midst of the Japanese naval fleet, the distance to the nearby Japanese warships was less than ten kilometers for some, and for those farther away, not more than fifty kilometers.

At this distance, not only the Yuan Shou Battlecruiser, but even those antique battleships from World War II, were within their gun range.

With advanced Biological Fire Control Radar and Biological Plasma Cannons, at fifty kilometers, not only was the Yuan Shou powerful, it was also accurate, hitting targets as easily as shooting fish in a barrel.

Boom!

A Biological Plasma Bomb blasted into the Japanese Agano. This was a 3,000-ton escort ship, roughly a tenth the displacement of the Chuyun.

Even the Chuyun couldn't withstand the Biological Plasma Cannon, so one can imagine the fate of the Agano with its ten times smaller stature upon being hit by one round.

When the Biological Plasma Bomb exploded, the Agano seemed like a soda can stuffed with a firecracker, the scene was extremely spectacular.

After a deafening boom, the hull of the Agano was torn in half by the explosion, and with the secondary explosions from the ammunition depot, the tremendous power shattered the escort ship's bridge, sending the 127mm deck gun flying over a hundred meters high.

In less than half a minute, the Agano completely vanished in the ocean, leaving only a whirlpool on the surface, as if it never existed.

Not only the escort ships suffered, but also destroyers, and even the Japanese helicopter carriers fell under the fierce shelling of the Yuan Shou.

For instance, the 17,000-ton-full-displacement Hinayama helicopter carrier.

It was over 45 kilometers away from the Yuan Shou, but due to its large displacement, it was targeted by the Yuan Shou and hit by a Biological Plasma Bomb.

With one shot, the Biological Plasma Bomb first entered the sea, boring through the hull of the Hinayama from below the waterline.

Then an intense plasma explosion occurred, lifting the Hinayama out of the water with a shock wave, melting its keel with high heat and flipping it over.

The Japanese Navy soldiers on it were like ants clinging desperately to the Hinayama until it completely capsized, with the deck slamming into the sea, submerging the struggling Japanese Navy soldiers into the water.

The power of the 600mm Biological Plasma Cannon was undoubtedly manifested in the battle, with very few warships able to withstand a single round.

It should be noted that the Iowa-class battleship's 406mm main gun of WWII fired shells nearly a ton heavy, capable of blasting a crater 15 meters in diameter and 6 meters deep, with power exceeding even some modern anti-ship missiles.

Such shells placed on modern warships would be unbearable for only a few, let alone the Yuan Shou Battlecruiser's 600mm Biological Plasma Cannon, whose power increases exponentially.

The restriction on a battleship has never been the shell power, but the range and accuracy.

In the face of destroyers using missiles as their primary attack method, battleships would sink not knowing where the enemy was, completely unable to respond to beyond-visual-range strikes, but this problem has been solved by the Yuan Shou.

Therefore, when the Yuan Shou began to rampage, this Destruction-class battleship genuinely demonstrated why it promotes itself as Destruction-class, perfectly illustrating what is meant by caliber is justice, and more guns is truth.

Its cannon firepower was really unparalleled, surpassing anti-ship missiles by a wide margin, delivering devastating blows with each bombardment to enemy warships.

When the nine 600mm Biological Plasma Cannons of the Yuan Shou completed the first round of firing and entered the energy accumulation time, nine Japanese warships had been sunk or incapacitated completely during the battle.

The distance was too close for the Yuan Shou to miss, and the Biological Plasma Cannon traveling at dozens of times the speed of sound made these warships incapable of intercepting them.

In an instant, the sea was full of smoke and sinking warships, from the 30,000-ton Chuyun to the two- to three-thousand-ton escort ships, the appearance of the Yuan Shou was established with the corpses of nine warships.

It sounds long, but from the Yuan Shou's debut, only over a minute had passed, and at this time, the Japanese counterattack finally arrived.

The closest Japanese destroyers and escort ships to the Yuan Shou unleashed their 120mm caliber guns at hundreds of rounds per minute towards the Yuan Shou, clanging away.

However, this level of bombardment for the Yuan Shou was not even in the least bit scratchy.
