Third-person POV
11 a.m., Manila, the Philippines
In the Malacañang Palace, Leo was holding a video call with the other six MPC leaders. They gave the dossiers of their country's respective intelligence agencies to each other by reading them aloud. These included short recorded clips of the Big Three agents being forced-fed by the MPC agents.
"That was so funny!" Paul from his presidential palace in Jakarta wheezed. "They think synthetic food like ones from China as superior and efficient than the authentic ones!"
"Yeah, evet," Oguz said to them while in his presidential palace in Ankara. "I recently drafted a decree to ban any fake food and product imports from China and wanted to strike new trade deals with you, Leo and Paraskevas. Some of my Turkish citizens wanted the real stuff."
"Hmm…" Paraskevas said while tapping his chin a few times, "…sure, and our border disputes with each other?"
"My military ships won't touch your container ships, I promised."
"Okay, fair enough."
"I'll deliver the Filipino native products to you, guys," Leo said to the two of them.
"Yeah, sure, my country's primary helicopter manufacturer had an offer of the best helicopters to you," Oguz said to Leo. "They guaranteed a discount if you go with a bulk order."
"Hmm…sure, my military needed a few dozens of them."
"Hey, what about me?" Paul chimed in.
"Sure, sure, buddy," Oguz said to Paul. "Bulk order for a discount?"
"Yes, please, my Indonesian islands are a geographical challenge for my military."
After that, all 7 leaders decided to pay a visit to a frantic, anxious Japanese Prime Minister Shinzō Motoi and deal with the possible diplomatic traps by the Big Three nations. The date was set tomorrow morning, with Leo and Paulo, due to their near time zones of their countries to Tokyo, going first, while Paulo will hop on his private jet from Brasilía, Brazil. Others will follow soon.
