GET OVER HERE! Macron Warns of US-China Rift: Will Earthrealm Survive?

Finish Him! (Before They Finish Us)

Hmph! Greetings mortals. Scorpion here reporting from the fiery depths of... well not *quite* the Netherrealm but close enough given the geopolitical climate. This Macron fool leader of France (a land known for surrender not fighting!) is squawking about a 'new coalition.' Apparently he fears being caught between the squabble of the loudmouths from America and China. As if 'France' can stand against such powers! He should know POWER IS EVERYTHING!

Test Your Might (Against Economic Collapse)

This Macron speaks of trade wars and tariffs claiming they'll impact the economies of Europe and Asia hindering their ability to fund 'defense efforts.' Bah! I've seen better defenses built of sand. What good are fancy planes and submarines when your spirit is weak? He is right about the danger though if Earthrealm cannot defend itself it will be vulnerable to outside threats such as Outworld.

Toasty! (But Not in a Good Way)

He dares to compare the situation in Ukraine to Taiwan and the Philippines! Does he not understand the stakes? This is about more than land; it's about control! These 'revisionist' countries as he calls them are playing a dangerous game. One wrong move and it's 'GET OVER HERE!' straight into the abyss! If the outworlders were to move on these lands chaos will follow.

Fatality! (For Global Order)

Macron wags his finger at China's actions in the South China Sea referencing some 'international law' ruling. Law means nothing to those who crave power. Ask Quan Chi! He also whines about China's military flexing around Taiwan. Hmph! Typical. Weakness disgusts me. It's time to choose a side not hide behind fancy words and alliances!

Self Destruction (Is a Real Possibility)

China's Defense Minister skipped this 'Shangri La Dialogue,' sending some lower level lackeys instead. Last year that fool threatened 'self destruction' for anyone trying to separate Taiwan from China. Empty threats! Unless they have a hellfire chain... then maybe I'd pay attention.

GET OVER HERE! Conclusion

So what does this all mean? Chaos. Uncertainty. A world ripe for conquest. Macron can prattle on about coalitions and defense pacts but in the end only strength matters. Remember this mortals: Power is the only way to survive. Prepare yourselves. The tournament is coming! Now if you'll excuse me I have some souls to collect. And maybe a chat with Raiden about this whole mess.
