Elder brother's garrison

First of all, that's what I want to say.

The two specially made telescopes that Lexington prepared for Shiro certainly lived up to their high price. When Shiro and Abyssal Yamato used their ship girl-level vision to pair with these two telescopes, they did get a better field of vision than ordinary toy telescopes.

Through the telescope, Xiaobai and Shenhai Yamato could clearly see the battle scene on the sea. They could see the high spray of water kicked up by the shells on the front line, the resolute expressions on the faces of the vanguard ship girls at Haoding Naval Base, and their graceful figures revealed by their clothes clinging to their skin after being washed by the sea. They could even clearly see the process of the red light in the eyes of the deep-sea creatures going from surging to dimming as they were bombarded into pieces by the ship girls.

Even so, after searching diligently for an hour, Shiro and Yamato still found nothing. The deep-sea creatures were being mercilessly slaughtered by Admiral Haoding's naval base. From the back of the line, which Shiro and Yamato couldn't see, a large number of deep-sea creatures kept pouring out. But no matter how many of these seemingly free deep-sea creatures poured out, Shiro and Yamato couldn't find anyone among them who resembled the Deep-Sea Dean.

"Yamato-neechan, are you sure all the Deep Sea Deans look the same?" Shiro put down her binoculars, relaxed her wrists which had been held up for an hour, and asked Deep Sea Yamato beneath her with some concern.

"I can confirm that. Although Chapter 8 and my hometown are located in different deep-sea kingdoms, the life forms of the Deep Sea Deans, no matter where they exist in the world, cannot be too different." Deep Sea Yamato nodded firmly. "As life forms that have evolved to the extreme of deep-sea creatures, all Deep Sea Deans have an appearance similar to ship girls. Our ship equipment and physical bodies are separate, yet they are connected in some mysterious way—this is a similarity at the level of life. Just like you, Xiaobai, compared to foreign humans, there may be subtle differences in skin color, hair color, eye color, or even bone structure, but in general, everyone is similar."

"Oh..." Xiaobai listened attentively to Shenhai Yamato's words and nodded convincingly, "Then that means the Deep Sea Dean in Chapter Eight must be hiding somewhere we can't see with our binoculars..."

"Don't be discouraged! No one understands the deep sea better than me!" Deep Sea Yamato was full of fighting spirit. She stared wide-eyed at the battle line in the distance and said to Little White, "Although the deep-sea minions are good at numbers, they still have their limits. She can fool you humans about that, but she can't fool me! At this rate of attrition, in another three or four hours, the deep-sea fleet will clearly see a situation where the rate of casualties can't keep up with the rate of replenishment. At that time, as the size of the deep-sea fleet gradually decreases, that deep-sea director will definitely be unable to hide his presence and will be exposed in our telescopes!"

"I see, three or four hours..." Xiaobai murmured, looking at the distant battle line, her eyes flickering with worry. "It seems it's only a matter of time before the Deep Sea Dean is exposed on the surface... But I wonder if Admiral Haoding can survive those three or four hours unscathed..."

Right after Xiaobai uttered these words to himself.

suddenly.

A deafening roar echoed across the sea, followed by a flash of fire far more intense than before.

Attracted by the flame, Shiro and Yamato raised their binoculars to look at it.

The flame originated from the ranks of the Haoding Garrison.

Just moments ago, a fleet of deep-sea battleships seized upon a fleeting opening in the ship girls' defenses and unleashed a deadly salvo of main guns. The ship girls' rigging shattered, and their bodies flew backward, their heavily damaged protective shields flashing brightly.

This is the first time that the ship girls of Haoding Naval Base have suffered serious battle losses since the start of the battle.

"A squad of ship girls is heavily damaged on the battlefield!" Abyssal Yamato shouted anxiously through her binoculars. "Damn it! The surrounding Abyssal ships have seized the opportunity and surrounded us. If these Abyssal creatures drag us to the bottom of the sea, even if these ship girls are heavily damaged, they can only wait to die!"

Under the tense gaze of Yamato and Shiro, the heavily damaged ship girls were scattered by the aftershocks of the shells and were surrounded by deep-sea creatures. Fortunately, several ship girls in formation nearby provided timely support. They rushed forward and launched a series of support shells to repel the deep-sea amphibious ships that tried to drag the heavily damaged ship girls to the bottom of the sea. The heavily damaged ship girls also found a moment of opportunity to escape from the deep-sea creatures and retreat to the safe waters behind.

"call……"

"call……"

On the deserted beach, Shiro and Yamato, who had witnessed this life-or-death moment, both breathed a sigh of relief.

"That was close... those ship girls were almost in danger..." Abyssal Yamato breathed a sigh of relief and muttered, "The opening they just revealed was too fatal, and the Abyssal Fleet caught it in one go..."

“Yes…” Xiaobai looked at the binoculars, his gaze somewhat solemn.

An hour of intense fighting wasn't enough to make these energetic warriors, the ship girls, exhausted so early. In fact, an hour was just enough for them to warm up, and it should have been the time when they fought even harder...

However, at this moment, these ship girls of Haoding Garrison made a grave mistake on the battlefield, revealing a fatal flaw...

Is it because the deep-sea creatures are gradually becoming stronger, constantly forcing them to change their positions, causing them to have a momentary opening?

impossible.

The strength of deep-sea creatures could not have increased so significantly in such a short period of time, and the combat power of ship girls could not have weakened so quickly.

Xiao Bai's brows gradually furrowed.

really……

If Xiaobai isn't mistaken, the reason these ship girls just revealed a weakness was probably because there was a momentary flaw in the instructions they received...

"Yamato-neechan." Thinking of this, Shiro sighed softly and lowered her head to speak gently to the deep-sea Yamato beneath her.

"Hmm? What's wrong, Xiaobai?"

"We can't wait three hours... Admiral Haoding might not be able to hold on any longer."

"!!"

-

Pfft!

In the very center of the beach in Chapter 1852, Admiral Haoding's legs gave way, and he knelt down on the sand.

Puff.

Admiral Haoding covered his mouth, but with a gushing sound, a mouthful of black blood spurted from his tightly covered mouth. The dark blood flowed through the gaps between his fingers, staining half of Admiral Haoding's face in a disheveled state.

"Sixth Platoon, Seventh Platoon, Eighth Platoon, turn your fire towards the six o'clock position to support the Fifth Platoon! The Fifth Platoon, all personnel, retreat to safe waters!" Admiral Haoding pressed his hands to the sand, desperately supporting his upper body to keep from collapsing. Then, with bloodshot eyes, he issued a series of orders in his loudest voice, "Thirteenth Platoon, advance and support the Fifth Platoon..."

Admiral Haoding was already in a very weak state, but even so, his voice, which was quite loud, was still steady and showed no signs of weakness when he gave orders, as if his physical condition was perfectly fine.

"Admiral!" Elizabeth rushed up from a short distance in a panic. She hurriedly knelt down beside Admiral Haoding, gesturing wildly with her hands in the air around him, unsure of what to do. Seeing Admiral Haoding's disheveled state, Elizabeth's beautiful eyes instantly filled with tears. "Admiral! You...you can't stay here any longer. If you stay any longer...the aura of the deep sea will really kill you...please, Admiral, please leave this place to Admiral Lu Lin and the others! Please leave here quickly!"

Elizabeth's words were somewhat incoherent, and her voice even began to choke.

But in contrast to the panicked Elizabeth, the Admiral Haoding, who was kneeling on the beach, did not react at all. He simply kept his eyes open, quietly watching the distant battle line, as if waiting for something. Even as beads of sweat streamed down his forehead and dripped into his eyes, he did not blink once.

“Admiral? Admiral! Admiral…” Seeing that Admiral Haoding showed no sign of backing down, Elizabeth couldn’t hold back her tears. She raised her hand and grabbed Admiral Haoding’s arm, calling out to him, “Admiral, why aren’t you saying anything? You really can’t…”

At Elizabeth's voice, the ship girls from the newbie naval base came up one after another and surrounded Admiral Haoding in circles.

Missouri and Bismarck stepped out of the queue and came behind Admiral Haoding. They raised their hands, ready to apply physical hypnosis to Admiral Haoding and take him away from the beach.

Admiral Haoding still did not react. He kept his eyes wide open, staring at the battle line in the distant sea. No matter how much Elizabeth shook him, he did not move.

at last.

Just as Admiral Haoding was staring intently at the sea, a voice finally echoed in his mind.

"Reporting to the Admiral! The Fifth Squadron has been safely evacuated! The Thirteenth Squadron is now taking its place..."

The owner of the voice was the captain of the ship girl garrison at Haoding. At this moment, the captain was reporting the situation at sea to the Haoding Admiral.

but.

Admiral Haoding did not hear the second half of the voice.

Because right after hearing the first half of the sentence.

Admiral Haoding, who had been staring blankly at the sea without any reaction, finally showed a look of relief in his eyes. He took a few short breaths, slowly closed his weak eyes, his heavy body swayed, and finally, Admiral Haoding collapsed, falling silently into Elizabeth's arms.

Chapter 1853 Super Giant

"What? Admiral Haoding can't hold on any longer?" On the deserted beach, Abyss Yamato looked up in surprise at the little white dog riding on his neck.

"Hmm... If I'm not mistaken, Admiral Haoding is probably nearing the limit of what he can hold on for." Xiaobai nodded, holding the binoculars in her hand, and whispered to the Abyssal Yamato beneath her, "The flaws that the ship girls showed on the surface just now should be one of the symptoms of Admiral Haoding's condition rapidly declining and his commands becoming unclear."

"Ah, this..." Deep Sea Yamato stared blankly at Shiro, then quickly looked towards the sea surface.

really.

Just like Xiaobai just said.

Just as Abyssal Yamato turned her gaze back to the ocean, she noticed that the Haoding Garrison ship girls, who had just been working together flawlessly and had completed an epic rescue from the deep-sea creatures, were now in disarray.

The movements of the dozen or so ship girls lined up on the sea surface quickly became chaotic. The ship girls, who had previously held a clear advantage, suddenly lost several levels of combat power. The deep-sea creatures' cannonballs remained the same, but for some reason, they now posed a great threat to the ship girls' fleet. Relying on their numerical advantage, the deep-sea creatures charged towards the ship girl fleet wave after wave, and the ship girls were forced to retreat step by step. The sea was gradually being reclaimed by the deep-sea creatures.

"A ship girl fleet without an admiral is on a completely different level from one with an admiral. Without Admiral Haoding's command, her ship girls can no longer coordinate perfectly across the entire battlefield as before, and the dense barrage of bullets generated by the Abyss's numerical advantage has begun to pose a great threat..." Xiaobai murmured to Abyss Yamato.

"Huh? Then... what should we do? If this trend continues, won't all those ship girls become very dangerous..." Deep Sea Yamato exclaimed in surprise and quickly asked Shiro.

"..." Xiaobai pursed her lips, gazing at the sea. Her eyes flickered, but as she looked, her panicked expression calmed somewhat. She sighed softly and said quietly, "That won't happen..."

"Hmm?" Yamato looked up.

It seemed to be a response to Xiaobai's words.

Just then, a series of rapid and violent artillery fire suddenly rang out from the other side of the beach.

For a while.

Large and small shells shot into the sky from the other side of the beach like a meteor shower, turning the entire sky fiery red. The shells rained down, instantly turning the sea area around the Haoding Garrison ship girls, along with countless deep-sea creatures, into a sea of ​​fire.

The retreating Haoding garrison ship girls stared blankly at the sea of ​​fire all around them, then turned back to look at the beach.

Then they saw dozens of agile figures rushing towards them from the other side of the beach.

The dozens of figures that rushed forward quickly dispersed into several elite squads, flanking the deep-sea creatures in the center of the battlefield from all directions.

"Finally, it's time to make a move! Hahahaha! All Abyssal Fleet, kneel down before me! The future flagship of the rookie naval base is about to bring you smiles!"

Wisconsin's arrogant laughter rang out from the middle squadron of ship girls. Then, these figures accelerated to their maximum speed in a flash, passing the ship girls of Haoding Garrison in the blink of an eye. Like a sharp knife, they plunged into the deep-sea creatures' fleet. With a series of fierce cannon shots, Wisconsin's team rampaged through the deep-sea creatures' fleet, charging in and out seven times.

This surge of momentum.

This reckless fighting spirit left the ship girls of Haoding Garrison stunned and speechless.

"Buzz buzz buzz buzz————"

Just then, with the roar of carrier-based aircraft, a squad of rookie naval girls approached the naval girls of Haoding Naval Base.

"Comrades of Haoding Naval Base, your admiral has entrusted the battle on the sea to us. I, Akagi, will represent the entire new naval base and join the battlefield to assist you all. Please rest assured!" Akagi's clear and gentle voice resounded in the ears of the ship girls of Haoding Naval Base. At the same time, the roar of carrier-based aircraft flew in from the other side of the sky and began to circle above the ship girls of Haoding Naval Base. "Please fight with confidence! We will protect you from behind!"

……

The remaining ship girl squads also rapidly approached the Abyssal Fleet from various directions. These squads consisted of no more than six ship girls, fewer than the ship girl formation of Haoding Naval Base. Although their total firepower was slightly reduced, their agility increased considerably at the cost of this. The Abyssal Creatures' counterattacks posed no threat to the ship girls of the Newbie Naval Base. On the contrary, the ship girl squads of the Newbie Naval Base, with their dispersed yet sharp and powerful firepower, turned the Abyssal Creatures' fleet upside down in an instant.

The flagships of the newbie naval base are either exceptionally talented or seasoned veterans with extensive experience. Even without the admiral's remote command, they can perfectly unleash the power of the fleet. After the ship girls of the newbie naval base joined the battle, the ship girls of the Haoding naval base were as if divinely aided, and they quickly stabilized the rout.

Because of the interference of the newbie naval base, the deep-sea creatures' plan to press their advantage failed, and they roared angrily. But what responded to them was a series of deadly attacks launched by the ship girls of the newbie naval base.

-

"Ok?"

The strange woman with her eyes closed frowned slightly, and a strange vortex suddenly rose from beside her, blowing her clothes and long hair into the air.

The deep-sea ships surrounding the strange woman frantically thrashed about, splashing water beneath them as they jostled to get closer to her. Each of them cast fearful glances at her, but dared not look directly at her face, instead stealing glimpses of her long legs and boots.

The woman paid no attention to the sounds made by the deep-sea creatures around her; she simply frowned and closed her eyes, seemingly observing the scene at sea in some way.

"Those ship girls...are they an ambush force..." the woman murmured softly, her voice as clear as a spring, "...their fighting and coordination methods are different from before, they shouldn't be with the ship girls on the surface...where is their admiral? What are their command methods..."

The woman paused abruptly after speaking, remaining silent for a short while.

A few more seconds passed.

The woman's tightly furrowed brows gradually relaxed.

"...We still need to...observe. Now is not the time to reveal ourselves." The woman muttered to herself, then raised her hands, which she had been holding to her chest, and gently tapped them together with her two jade-white fingers. "...Anyway...let's ignore these newly appeared ship girls for now and focus on taking away the ship girls who lost their command earlier..."

-

Rumble rumble rumble —

Just as the newbie naval base joined the battle, a giant wave suddenly rose on the already intense sea surface.

"Huh? What does this feel like..." The ship girls who were annihilating the deep-sea amphibious ships on the sea surface stopped their attacks. They quickly realized that the sea beneath their feet was changing, so they sped up and scattered in all directions, stabilizing themselves on the turbulent waves.

A giant wave then rose up.

A massive figure rose into the sky.

"Awoooooo!"

"Awoooooo!"

"Awoooooo!"

……

Several enormous, wall-like steel whales roared as they broke through the giant waves, rising from the seabed as if the earth itself were shifting. They breathed in the fresh air, as if they were indignant about being hidden in the seabed and trying to vent their violent emotions.

The enormous cannons expanded ostentatiously in all directions, casting shadows on the sea as large as warships, flaunting their power to all living things around them.

At this moment, the deep-sea creatures on the surface of the sea seemed to have found their backbone. Large numbers of deep-sea creatures moved towards the steel whales, completely surrounding their huge figures. For a moment, the roars of the deep-sea creatures became even more rampant.

"This is... a deep-sea frigate? It's so big..." The ship girls at the rookie naval base stared wide-eyed at the enormous enemy emerging from the seabed. "So... it was hidden at the bottom of the sea all this time...?"

-

"Holy crap! They really had a backup plan!" On the beach, Abyssal Yamato slapped Shiro's thigh, lifting her up and bouncing her around several times. She stared wide-eyed at the enormous Abyssal warship in the distance, muttering, "One, two, three... four, five... six, seven... Wow, ten! Ten such huge Abyssal corvettes! Shiro! Shiro, did you see that? Did you see that super-sized Abyssal corvette over there?! I, I, I, I've never seen anything this big in my life!"

When Yamato saw the deep-sea destroyer rising from the seabed, her eyes widened in disbelief, as if her worldview had been shaken. She kept slapping Shiro's thigh and calling out to him.

"Yes, I see it, Yamato-neechan." Shiro stared at the distant deep-sea destroyer and nodded slightly. "Were all those deep-sea destroyers hidden at the bottom of the sea before...? No wonder, the dense deep-sea aura of these deep-sea creatures was too strong, interfering with our detection capabilities, to the point that even we didn't notice their presence..."

At this point, Xiaobai's tightly furrowed brows relaxed slightly.

"However... although the quality is different from the deep-sea frigates we've seen before, now that they're out, it's not a problem. No matter how strong a deep-sea frigate is, it's still just a deep-sea frigate. Missouri and Akagi will sink all of them..." Xiaobai murmured, a relaxed smile appearing on his face. "Admiral Haoding made the right choice before; he entrusted these deep-sea frigates to us..."

Xiaobai doesn't think that a mere deep-sea frigate could be stronger than her own ship girl.

but.

Just now.
