The Pentagon’s stance on Antarctic intervention drastically shifts with the arrival of the formidable M142 HIMARS, a rocket system capable of striking targets 300 kilometers away with precision. As Japanese official Watanabe Goro witnesses the deployment of this “war monster” and hundreds of Navy SEALs, chilling suspicions arise about the true objective: not capture, but annihilation of their own scientific expedition. The commander’s dismissive response, “You have no right to question or interfere with United States military operations,” confirms Watanabe’s terrifying realization.

The M142 Heavy Weapon and the Mystery of the Pentagonâs Change of Attitude
The head of the US military base remained calm when faced with Watanabe Goroâs questions.
With a flat and cold expression, he replied, âBased on the current situation, we should indeed abide by the Antarctic Treaty and not send any troops there. But now, the situation has changed.â
Watanabe Goro felt like he was dreaming. He rubbed his eyes repeatedly.
He couldnât believe it. Hadnât this commander just sworn not to send a single bullet? How could this bastard have organized hundreds of Navy SEALs for an operation in Antarctica in the blink of an eye?
Unable to bear it any longer, Watanabe asked with a trembling voice.
âWhat has changed? Has our Prime Minister requested special permission from your President?â
The base chief looked at him with a condescending gaze.
âAs far as I know, your president doesnât have that much influence.â
Ignoring Watanabeâs confusion, the commander grabbed the walkie-talkie and shouted sternly.
âWhy isnât M142 here yet? Hurry! Weâre going to be late!â
Fear of Seeing the M142 Rocket Launcher
Hearing the code âM142â, Watanabe Goroâs face turned pale.
As a Defense Department official, he knew exactly what it was. M142 was the code for HIMARS (High Mobility Artillery Rocket System)âan American-made high-mobility artillery rocket launcher system.
This is not a toy. This is a war monster.
The M142 is highly maneuverable and deadly. The latest model is capable of launching precision-guided rockets with a range of up to 300 kilometers.

Even more terrifying, this vehicle boasts a 6Ă6 all-terrain drivetrain. Even if dropped on the Antarctic ice sheet, this 5-ton monster can drive smoothly.
Watanabe thought to himself in horror, âDamn, are these Americans crazy?â
They said they were anti-violence. Now theyâre bringing rocket launchers to shoot at scientistsâ snowmobiles?
Itâs like using a cannon to kill a mosquito. The M142 can destroy any target from hundreds of kilometers away with surgical precision.
The next second, a terrible realization hit Watanabe.
âWait⌠are these SEALs and M142 rockets prepared to attack our scientific expedition team?â
Japan asked for American help in capturing the traitors alive . Sending special forces still made sense for that purpose.
But sending artillery rocket launchers? Thatâs not to capture. Thatâs to destroy.
Threats on Board
Cold sweat broke out on Watanabeâs forehead. He dared to interrupt.
âCommander, our plan is persuasion. The priority is capture, not assault! With such firepower, a misfire would have dire consequencesâŚâ
The head of the US military base cut him off coldly.
âYou have no right to question or interfere with United States military operations.â
Watanabe was almost in tears, âBut they are just our suspected scientists! We canât just kill them!â
The commander glared at him and gave an ultimatum.
âListen. Our original mission was to transport you. But now, our mission is to transport soldiers and weapons to Antarctica. Weâre just giving you a ride.â
His voice lowered, full of threat. âSo, if you still want to board this plane, youâd better shut up. Or get off now!â

He knew his place. He was merely a supporting character here. If he continued to argue, he would be kicked off the plane, and the mission would be a complete failure.
Feeling annoyed and scared, he sat back down on the cargo planeâs mesh seat.
The Rumble of War Machines
Suddenly, the rumbling sound of heavy machinery was heard from outside.
Three M142 HIMARS rocket launchers cruised onto the runway, ready to dive into the belly of the second newly arrived transport aircraft.
Watanabe Goroâs eyes widened. They actually brought three artillery units. Were they going to start a world war at the South Pole?
And it turns out, that was just the beginning.
The commanderâs voice came over the radio again: âThe second echelon of personnel and equipment is ready. They will depart as soon as the first shipment is complete!â
The United States was apparently very panicked.
They feared that the defecting Japanese researchers would attack McMurdo Station. For the US, McMurdo was more than just an ice laboratory. It was a strategic base housing something very important.
They donât know if the secret has leaked. But one thing is certain: McMurdo Station must not be touched.
The Pentagonâs strategy has now shifted completely to the offensive:
- Send troops to strengthen McMurdoâs defenses.
- Send another force to cut off the Japanese teamâs escape route.
- Launch a pincer attack to finish off the defectors.
The orders were clear: Shoot on sight if anyone approached aggressively.
As the plane carrying Goro Watanabe began to move down the runway, he could only surrender. Behind him, a second plane carrying deadly rockets also took off, tearing through the sky toward the south.

Radio Tension and Americaâs Final Warning
Meanwhile in Antarctica, Wu Bolinâs group is getting closer to McMurdo Station.
However, there is something strange.
Kohei Kikuchi looked confused and anxious. It had been over half an hour since he sent the distress signal âSOS,â but there had been no response from the American station.
âThis is absolutely outrageous!â Kikuchi complained, hitting the steering wheel.
âHow is that possible? We said we needed emergency help, but they just kept quiet! Where is their humanity?â
Wu Bolin, who was sitting quietly next to him, opened his eyes.

âWhat would happen if we just barged in there?â he asked flatly.
Kikuchi shook his head quickly.
âWe donât have any insiders, Master. Breaking in without permission would be suicide. Their radar has been locked on to our position for a while now.â
He explained the risks, âIf we force our way in, theyâll report it to the military. The nearest air base can send fighter jets in two hours. We donât have any heavy weapons. Our chances are zero.â
Wu Bolin smiled faintly, full of confidence.
âTheyâre just a bunch of scientists, right? I can handle them alone.â
Strong Warning Via Radio
Before Kikuchi could answer, the snowmobileâs radio on the dashboard hissed loudly. The American officerâs voice sounded tense and warning.
âOn behalf of the United States government, I demand that you stop immediately! No further approach to McMurdo Station is permitted!â
Kikuchi immediately grabbed the radio microphone with emotion.
âYou idiot! We came to ask for help! The US and Japan are allies! Weâre just having technical problems and need logistics; whatâs wrong with helping our fellow human beings here?â
On the other end, the American communications officer broke out in a cold sweat.
To them, Kikuchiâs voice wasnât the voice of a comrade in need. It was the voice of an enemy.
Pentagon intelligence had already warned: This Japanese group was a crazed traitor. Anyone who dared betray their own country en masse was a dangerous psychopath.
And now, the psychopaths were moving straight towards the gates of McMurdo Station.
Clearly, they did not come with good intentions.
