Ok.
This second reason is even more irresistible to Xiaobai.
"Admiral, in short, let's leave the matter of Senior Ryujo here for now. While you've just created some mist, Missouri has a serious matter to ask of you," Missouri said to Shiro.
"Hmm? What's wrong?" Xiaobai asked curiously.
“Senior Ryujo is now, after all, a Deep Sea Dean. While our naval base is quite accustomed to Deep Sea Deans, for other naval bases around the world, capturing a Deep Sea Dean is truly a shocking thing… Missouri thinks that other naval bases might not agree to Admiral’s actions of capturing Senior Ryujo,” Missouri said.
"Uh...that's true."
“So, Senior Ryujo must hide her identity like Senior Yamato did.” Missouri said, then smiled helplessly. “But then again, Senior Ryujo is a Deepsea Fleet member, and she exudes the aura of a Deepsea Fleet member…”
"Ah, I understand!" Xiaobai nodded, opened her ship equipment space in front of Missouri, and took out a glittering silver ring. "Missouri, you mean this deep-sea aura shielding ring, right?"
The ring in Xiaobai's ship equipment is one of the spare parts that Akashi casually made when Xiaobai made a ring for Deep Sea Yamato last time.
That's why we say stone is powerful.
There's a reason why they charge high prices. Even the ring accessories are more understated and luxurious than those available on the market, exuding sophistication. It makes even novice buyers want to have a new batch of rings made by Akashi for their early wedding ships.
“Exactly.” Missouri accepted the ring from Xiaobai. “With this ring, Senior Ryujo won’t be afraid of being recognized by the ship girls from other naval bases at a glance.”
"Um...uh..." Xiaobai nodded, but then suddenly remembered something. She opened her mouth, "Um, Missouri!"
"Admiral?" Missouri looked at Xiaobai.
“Um… Missouri. That ring is, after all, a wedding ring I made for Yamato-neechan… so we still need to be a little careful…” Shiro said with a troubled expression.
Missouri smiled wryly.
"Yes, Admiral."
After Missouri finished speaking, she put the ring on the index finger of Deepsea Dragon's left hand.
“In that case, the Admiral’s ring will just be an ornament, how about that?” Missouri said to Xiaobai with a smile.
"Okay, sure!" Xiaobai nodded in relief.
As Deepsea Ryujo put on the ring on her index finger, the deep-sea aura that belonged to the Deepsea Dean disappeared, turning her into a neutral target like Xiaobai, who belonged neither to the Deepsea Abyss nor to the ship girls.
"But speaking of which, Deepsea Dragon's two conspicuous antelope horns on its head..." Xiaobai pointed to the top of Deepsea Dragon's head with some concern.
"As for these two horns, Admiral, please rest assured, they seem to be just decorations." Missouri reached out and twisted the antelope horn of the Deep Sea Dragon, then snapped it off with a pop.
"Whoa!? Is this also a decoration?" Little White exclaimed in surprise. "Missouri, how did you find this out?!"
“Missouri… well, she does know a little about makeup.” Missouri weighed the antelope horn of the Deep Sea Dragon and put it into her ship equipment space. “Would the admiral like to try it? If there’s a chance next time, Missouri can also equip you with a couple of decorative animal ears or horns.”
"Uh... let's say that's..."
"In exchange, Missouri will try wearing fox ears and a tail for the Admiral to see." Missouri raised her hand, gently pinched and gestured towards the little white creature, and smiled slightly, "Meow~"
"That sound should definitely be a cat's voice no matter how you look at it..."
"Is that right?"
"That's right." Xiaobai nodded solemnly, her eyes shining brightly, "So please be sure to let me see it next time!"
The moisture on the sea surface quickly settled down.
The bubbling heat gradually cooled down, and the sea returned to calm amidst the rising and falling waves.
Xiaobai and Missouri left the core area of the battlefield and headed towards the other newbie naval bases that had been waiting at the edge of the battlefield.
The edge of the battlefield.
"noob!!!"
Saratoga, whose spring had been exposed by the bombing of carrier-based aircraft, stood on tiptoe on the water. She covered her full, exposed breasts with one hand and waved the other hand high in the air at Little White. Her face was flushed with excitement.
Upon seeing Little White return, Saratoga ran up to him, bent down on his smooth knees to look Little White in the eye, and smiled contentedly.
"Little White, you're back!"
"Yes, I'm back," Little White said with a smile to Saratoga.
"Was I any help this time?" Saratoga asked with a smile.
"Yes, you've been a great help!" Looking at Saratoga's battered clothes and her nonchalant smile, Xiaobai felt a pang of guilt. She said to Saratoga apologetically, "Um... I'm so sorry, I won't force you to do such dangerous things again."
"It's not dangerous! Please use me as you like!" Upon hearing Xiaobai's first sentence, Saratoga's face lit up with a smile. She waved her arms and said happily to Xiaobai, "Only I can help Xiaobai, right!"
"Hmm... this time, Saratoga, you really did something that no one else could do," White said to Saratoga with a smile. "Or rather, Saratoga, you always manage to help me a lot. Thank you so much!"
"Hehehe..." Saratoga lowered his head and leaned closer to Little White.
Little White understood immediately and reached out to touch Saratoga's smooth blond hair.
"Well done, Saratoga."
"Ok!"
"Thanks to you this time, Saratoga!"
"Uh-huh!"
"It's so good to have you by my side!"
"Mmmmmmm!"
A warm blush rose on Saratoga's cheeks. She nodded, gesturing for Little White to continue praising and showering her with affection, looking incredibly happy.
Saratoga did indeed provide significant assistance to Shiro in this battle, something that no other ship girl could do.
However, when Xiaobai saw Saratoga being targeted by enemy carrier-based aircraft while on the ship-mounted giant snake, he still regretted it a little.
Next time, I really shouldn't assign Saratoga those kinds of easy targets again...
Xiao Bai withdrew his hand.
"Saratoga, hurry up and go to the back to use the rapid repair device."
"Hmm!" Saratoga happily pulled a green dog bowl from her ship equipment space, put it on her head, and ran to the back of the group to receive repairs.
Xiaobai breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Changchun and the other ship girls.
Just as Xiaobai was about to open her mouth to speak to the ship girls, she heard a call from behind.
"Hello, you guys!"
Everyone turned around.
A ship girl in tattered clothes, clutching her arm and panting, ran slowly toward the group.
I recognize this ship girl.
It was the command ship girl from the Nanxing Naval Base just now.
The commanding ship girl limped over to Xiaobai, looking at her with complicated emotions, and then at the other ship girls behind Xiaobai.
"Uh... that..."
The commanding ship girl hesitated for a long time, seemingly trying to come up with the right words.
"grateful!"
The commanding ship girl bowed deeply to the crowd, giving a ninety-degree bow.
"I am Nagato, and I am very grateful for your help!"
Chapter 1501 Why Do I Feel Like You're Insulting Me?
In a deep-sea home shrouded in thick clouds and mist, the sunlight above is completely blocked by the black fog, not a single ray of light can penetrate. The entire deep-sea home is dark and cold, and the eerie sea wind carries black air currents that whistle through the air, accompanied by faint ghostly howls.
Sea surface.
The massive deep-sea frigates lined up in formation, slowly moving their bodies and carefully gliding across the water, as if afraid that their enormous limbs might stir up even the slightest wave in their deep-sea home.
Around the massive deep-sea frigate, a dense array of small and medium-sized deep-sea vessels, including deep-sea destroyers, light cruisers, and heavy cruisers, quietly swam. They almost filled the entire deep-sea homeland. The half-humanoid figures attached to the mechanical fish bodies stood tall, their eyes emitting a hazy red or golden light through their eye masks, surveying the distant horizon.
The deep-sea ships are consciously protecting their leader.
Their leader was injured at sea some time ago.
She is currently recuperating in her private rest pool.
Behind the protection of numerous deep-sea ships of all sizes, in the very center of the deep-sea home, within a vortex black hole shrouded in pure black mist, a naked adult woman with snow-white skin sat quietly on the edge of the black hole, as if soaking in a hot spring.
Within the vortex black hole, a large amount of black mist sensed the adult woman's body and pounced on her in packs like hungry jackals that had caught the scent of prey.
A large amount of black mist transformed into physical tentacles, tightly binding the woman's body. Strands of black energy climbed up the woman's tall and shapely figure, moving inch by inch along her skin.
The woman kept her head down, her long black hair covering her chest.
A large amount of black mist adhered to the woman's skin and slowly seeped into her body. Throughout this process, the woman remained quiet and did not make any movement.
At some point.
Suddenly, a strong tremor came from the once quiet vortex black hole.
A large amount of black mist trembled, as if it had been severely injured, and rapidly receded from the woman's body, trembling as it shrank back into the vortex black hole.
The black fog was gone.
The woman's fair and shapely body, seemingly glowing with a soft light, was exposed in her cold, deep-sea home.
"Cough cough cough..."
The woman coughed softly and slowly opened her closed eyes.
A flash of black and red light appeared briefly in a pair of narrow, dark pupils.
"Dragon Soars... has it opened a black hole?"
The woman glanced down at the black mist that had shrunk back into the vortex black hole. She frowned, a faint hint of anger appearing on her face.
"I've told her many times that her body isn't strong enough to handle deep-sea energy—"
The woman braced herself against the edge of the vortex-like black hole behind her, and shakily stood up from within the black hole.
The woman gently stroked her ear, raised her snow-white neck, and silently gazed at the sky shrouded in black mist.
"Longxiang, how is the battle going?"
The woman questioned the air in front of her, her eyes flashing with a dark red light.
"..."
There was no response from the other side of the sky.
"Longxiang?"
"..."
"Respond immediately upon hearing my call."
"..."
The sky remained overcast with dark clouds.
No one answered.
Only the thick black fog slowly turned like a millstone.
"..." The woman waited quietly for a while, but did not ask any more questions. She closed her eyes and took a soft breath.
"……All right."
The Deep Sea Dragon did not respond to its call.
That means Long Xiang's fate is uncertain.
Considering that she had just activated the vortex black hole and used deep-sea energy, it's not hard to imagine what Long Xiang, thousands of miles away, was experiencing at that moment.
The woman lowered her head, then reopened her eyes. Her dark pupils now held only a sharp gaze.
The woman lifted her long legs and stepped out from the vortex of black hole.
As the woman's perfect body left the vortex black hole, a large amount of black currents that had been floating in the deep-sea home converged on her, covering her skin and condensing into a wide black robe.
"Cough cough cough..."
The woman lowered her head and coughed softly, a momentary pallor rising to her face before being forcibly suppressed by a blush.
A faint trace of loneliness flashed across the woman's haughty gaze.
"Dear comrade, I will remember all your contributions to the Deep Sea Fleet." The woman straightened up and spoke to the air in front of her, "Rest in peace, I will use the flames of war burning in the enemy's homeland to commemorate your noble soul!"
