The sea never speaks, but beneath every wave lies a story left unfinished.
Jiang Xiaoyu has become the commander of the Dragon Shark Squadron, and Shen Ge is pregnant.
He thought the hardest days were behind him. He had spent nearly ten years going from a dirt-poor fish seller to the commander of the most elite squad in the Marine Corps.
But the sea won't let him rest.
Three unidentified speedboats intrude into the training zone in the dead of night, leaving behind a fisherman's corpse and a charred piece of plastic. The fragment points to a mysterious organization active in the depths of the South China Sea: the Ghost Fleet.
A group of retired special forces soldiers forgotten by the world. A private army equipped with military-grade weapons. A ghost base hidden deep within a chain of uninhabited islands. They are searching for a sunken World War II ship and the secret aboard it, one that could drive the great powers mad.
When the enemy, who calls himself “Ghost,” speaks to Jiang Xiaoyu for the first time from afar, he says only one thing:
“You're no match for me.”
From a soldier who rose from humble beginnings to an iron-blooded commander, Jiang Xiaoyu now faces a battle fought not only at sea, but also within himself.
