In the sixth year of Yuanshou, the spirit of Huo Qubing, the Champion Marquis, still lingered. Bound to the Son of Huaxia System, he transmigrated through time and arrived in the prosperous Yongle era of the Ming dynasty.
At the time, Zhu Di had moved the capital to Beijing, and envoys from countless nations came to pay tribute. Beneath the dynasty’s awe-inspiring majesty, northern steppe cavalry watched like tigers, while Japanese pirates ravaged the eastern coast. The nation’s destiny concealed turbulent undercurrents.
He came from Mount Langjuxu in the northern deserts, then stepped onto the treacherous shores of the East China Sea. How could a god of war on land become the king of the coast?
He trains the “Sea Cavalry,” presents the Three Strategies for Pacifying the Japanese, crosses a thousand miles of ocean, and launches a surprise attack on the enemy’s stronghold. With his glorious victories, he forges anew the immortal legend of “winning a noble title and pacifying the seas”!
Zhu Di regards him as the empire’s sharpest sword, and also as the confidant most like himself.
When the smoke of battle finally clears, he points toward the boundless ocean and tells the Ming: “Our journey lies among the stars and seas.”
This is a heroic ode spanning time, an immortal epic written in sword and fire by the soul of a nation between two great dynasties.
