IFNS Napoleon Part 1

As the small boat came closer, a crane was lowered to lift the Japanese envoy aboard the IFNS Napoleon. The Japanese envoy, a man of stoic appearance, wearing traditional Japanese attire scanned around the deck of the IFNS Battleship.

The first thing he noted was the cannons. Their four cylindrical cannons were huge and the mount was taller than their forts. The deck was meticulously organized, with every piece of equipment and each crew member in their designated places, exuding an air of discipline and order.

The Japanese envoy's eyes continued to wander, taking in the stark contrast between his country's traditional, albeit outdated, naval capabilities and the technological marvel he now stood upon.

The metal under his feet felt solid as if the deck was made out of steel. This wasn't just a ship; it was a floating fortress, a manifestation of the West's technological and military advancement.
