"Thank you~"

written request for leave

I've finished writing the update, but when I looked at it, I felt it wasn't well written. My mind is still a mess, and I don't know how to revise it right now. In the end, I felt I shouldn't have posted an update that I wasn't satisfied with, so I'll stop writing today and update again tomorrow.

I clearly said before that if I didn't send a leave request by 4:30, I would definitely update it, but I broke my promise.

I'm so sorry.

Chapter 1075 Pie Team

As dawn broke, I stepped out of my room to find many ship girls already gathered in the courtyard, washing up and warming up. Steam rose from the kitchen directly opposite the entrance, and Akagi and Bismarck's figures were faintly visible in the mist.

"Good morning, Admiral!"

"Admiral! Good morning!"

As soon as Xiaobai came out of the room, the ship girls who had been keeping an eye on Xiaobai's room door quickly smiled at her and waved as they said good morning.

Xiaobai waved to the ship girls.

Because of the banquet last night, the ship girls all slept very late. If this happened to humans, they would probably all be late this morning. But fortunately, each of the ship girls has ship equipment. As long as they use the power of their ship equipment a little, even if they stay up all night, their spirits will not be affected, and they will still get up early.

I'm so incredibly envious.

Even though everyone here has ship equipment.

Why can ship girls freely turn their ship equipment effects on and off, while my ship equipment seems like a passive skill that can't be turned off...?

Looking at the ship girls in front of her, each one full of energy, Xiaobai couldn't help but shed tears of sorrow.

"Full body exercise, one two three four, two two three four, three two three four..."

By the gate, Wisconsin was leading the destroyers in morning exercises. Wisconsin didn't seem to be using her ship's equipment to shake off her sleepiness. Whenever she raised her hand or jumped, Wisconsin looked somewhat lazy and undisciplined, which contrasted sharply with the energetic movements of the other destroyers around her who were laughing and joking.

"One, two, three, four, two, two, three..."

"Hahaha, the Wisconsin girl looks like she's sleepwalking, hahaha—"

"Wisconsin sister is going to defeat sleep!"

"Go Wisconsin sister! The Admiral might be watching you from somewhere!"

The destroyers following behind the Wisconsin were chattering and calling out.

"Stop babbling... I'm way past that age of being energetic. Just follow me and finish this, or I'll kill you all." Wisconsin protested weakly. "Seriously... why did you have to dump this humiliating job of leading destroyers in morning exercises on me...?"

"Ah, Admiral Qi Er Mio passed away IX wife (3) 4!"

"It's the admiral!"

Behind Wisconsin came the excited voices of the destroyers, followed by a flurry of cheerful greetings and a chaotic thumping of footsteps.

Wisconsin sighed.

"Have you ever heard the story of the boy who cried wolf? You think I'd fall for your tricks again..." Wisconsin stopped what she was doing, frowned, turned her head, and glared weakly at the destroyer behind her. "Hurry up and finish what you're doing so we can eat... uh?"

Wisconsin initially thought that calling the admiral was some kind of trick the destroyers were using to wake her up, and she was annoyed and about to turn around to give them a lecture. However, to Wisconsin's surprise, when she turned around this time, Little White, who was surrounded by the destroyers, was indeed standing behind her.

"Is Wisconsin leading the destroyers in morning exercises? Thanks for your hard work," Xiaobai said to Wisconsin with a smile.

"Uh...oh." Wisconsin glanced at Xiaobai, twirling a strand of hair by her ear with her fingertips. "Hmm. Missouri promised to take them yesterday, but she wasn't here this morning, so I'm filling in."

As Wisconsin spoke, his eyes darted over Little White's face.

"...Is Missouri with the Admiral?"

"Huh? How did you know about Wisconsin?"

"Where else could that person go if he's not with me? Besides, Admiral, you look completely exhausted, like you've been drained dry."

"Huh?" Xiaobai touched her face in surprise.

"...Just kidding. Happy April Fool's Day."

"...It's almost winter..." Little White smiled at Wisconsin, "Don't scare me..."

"Oh haha."

With morning exercises interrupted, the destroyers stopped bothering Wisconsin. After greeting Xiaobai one by one, they all went to wash up very quickly.

Wisconsin glanced at the little white ship that remained beside her, waving at the departing destroyers.

"What does the Admiral want with me?"

"Haha... Um, do you remember Blaine from Wisconsin?"

"The one who worked at that coffee shop before?"

"Ok!"

“I remember, didn’t I later give her admiral an invitation letter?” Wisconsin shrugged.

"Hmm, that ship..." At this point, Xiaobai's eyes suddenly lit up, "Huh? The invitation? Ah! Wisconsin, did they take that invitation with them later?"

"I don't know, the invitation was probably thrown away after we got in."

"May I take that invitation back as a souvenir?"

"...It's possible, after all, there's no rule saying you can't bring it back..." Wisconsin looked at Xiaobai strangely. She paused, then suddenly crossed her arms, giving a rather disgusted look, and unconsciously shuddered twice. "Now that I think about it... I've carried that thing with me for a long time; it's practically a lady's personal item... If it gets taken back and used as something disgusting..."

Alas!

Thinking about this, Wisconsin got goosebumps all over his body.

Could it be that she was really taken back by that male admiral?

Wisconsin muttered to herself, feeling a little uncomfortable, as her gaze slowly returned to Little White.

At this moment, Xiaobai was looking at Wisconsin with shining eyes.

"...What are you doing, Admiral?"

"Ah, it's nothing, it's nothing." Xiaobai lowered his hands and gave Wisconsin a huge, smug grin, as if he'd found a treasure. "Hehe..."

Wisconsin felt particularly uncomfortable under Xiaobai's gaze. She touched her face, looked at her clothes, and had a strange expression on her face.

"...Admiral, what are you... laughing at me for?"

"Wisconsin, we hope you'll continue to support our event!"

"what?"

Before Wisconsin could even react.

Little White was already running off happily, dancing and jumping around.

"Wisconsin, I'm going to the Admiral's Guild to register now! I'll probably be back around breakfast time!" Xiaobai left these words and disappeared through the gate of the courtyard.

Wisconsin was left behind, looking completely bewildered.

Sigrún has taught at the Iceland University of the Arts as a part-time lecturer since and was Dean of the Department of Fine Art from -. In – she held a research position at Reykjavík Art Museum focusing on the role of women in Icelandic art. She studied fine art at the Icelandic College of Arts and Crafts and at Pratt Institute, New York, and holds BA and MA degrees in art history and philosophy from the University of Iceland. Sigrún lives and works in Iceland.

When Xiaobai left the courtyard, it was still very early. At this time of year, the streets of Zhangjie City should have been relatively quiet. However, when Xiaobai stepped out, he found that the streets were unusually crowded. The streets leading to the Admiral's Guild and Zhangjie Sea were filled with a dense, dark mass of people.

While hurrying along in the crowd, Xiaobai kept his head down, checking the progress and status of the Admiral's Guild's activities on his phone.

Since word spread about the event's huge profits, many admirals have come from Chapter 7 this morning. Early in the morning, those high-ranking admirals who brought their ship girls all the way from afar almost flattened the threshold of the city gate.

The difference in strength between Chapter 1076 and Chapter 7 was quite significant. Before dawn, these hardcore monks from Chapter 7 led their ship girls and rushed into the sea.

In just a few hours, the Admiral's Guild had already handed over dozens of Deep Sea Dean metals.

Of course, the exchange rate of Deep Sea Deity Metal has also dropped significantly.

Seeing this, Xiaobai silently put away her phone.

The number of people in the Admirals' Guild was no less than that on the street. The lobby on the first floor was bustling with noise. Fortunately, the top-ranked admirals all had the privilege of using back channels. If Xiaobai was just taking on a mission, he could still avoid the tedious procedures on the first floor.

On the second floor of the Admirals' Guild, there was a desk in every corner. The governors that Xiaobai had seen yesterday were now sitting behind their desks, some of them were working on documents, and others were processing formalities for the admirals.

Xiao Bai spotted Lin Qing and Mu Yu at a glance.

The reason I noticed Ringo at first glance was because she was just too eye-catching.

Compared to other governors, Ringo was extremely popular for various reasons. Almost all the admirals on the second floor came for her, and a long queue formed in front of her desk, which was in stark contrast to the other governors who were almost ignored.

Xiao Bai's gaze swept over Mu Yu, who was sleeping face down on the table, without any emotion.

—It's too crowded at Ringo's place. If Xiaobai goes to queue up, she'll probably have to wait for a while and won't be able to make it to the courtyard for breakfast.

Xiao Bai sighed helplessly and walked towards the desk of the nearest governor.

The old governors were quite aloof. When Xiaobai approached the old man's desk, the old governor was looking down, one hand gripping a file book, the other holding a sharpened pencil, rapidly processing the registration for the only admiral at his desk.

The admiral was a black-haired older sister whom Xiaobai had never seen before. She was pretty, just the right size of a normal human. She sat in the reception chair, not caring about her gender at all. She sat up straight, with her legs together, and each hand on one thigh. Her long black hair was tied into a single ponytail and hung down her back. Her posture was as perfect as that of an elementary school student who had just been disciplined by their homeroom teacher.

The standards were so high that they were conspicuous.

As soon as Xiaobai approached the seat, he heard the two people chatting.

Out of curiosity about this amazing young lady, Xiao Bai, who had come to queue up, subconsciously pricked up his ears to listen.

Just like how Xiaobai prefers to seek out Ringo, it seems that admirals who have a good relationship with the corresponding governor prefer to handle business with the governor they are familiar with. The admiral in front of Xiaobai seems to be the same way.

"Little Duan, it's been a long time since I've seen you participate in any activities," the old governor said with a smile, his voice like that of an elder as he helped the admiral fill out the documents.

"Yes."

The young lady's voice is quite pleasant, possessing a rare air of authority reminiscent of a class monitor.

This feeling is surprisingly reliable...

Xiao Bai, who had walked behind the young lady, smiled quietly, and subconsciously felt a sense of goodwill towards her.

He seems to be one of the few decent people among the admirals...

Xiao Bai felt somewhat relieved.

"Sigh, you must have suffered a lot during those years with the military police."

The old governor sighed.

“It’s not bitter,” the female admiral replied clearly and distinctly.

--Um???

Chapter 1077 The Strongest King's Gatekeeper

Xiao Bai stared wide-eyed in surprise at the two people in front of him, one old and one young, who were completely unaware of his presence.

Xiao Bai had only overheard the first sentence when he was startled by what he heard.

Military Police...

The military police is a rather unique position. While it may sound unfamiliar in human society, it is a very familiar term within the admiral's circle.

Well known.

Because the ship rigging of the Abyssal Fleet is too hard and difficult to analyze, human technology at its current level cannot effectively penetrate the ship rigging to cause effective damage to the Abyssal Fleet itself. Therefore, even now, if we want to confront the Abyssal Fleet, the only way is to send out ship girls who also have ship rigging to fight against them.

Therefore, the role of an admiral—who trains ship girls, takes care of their daily needs, teaches them combat tactics, leads them to conquer seas, and infuses them with a constant stream of positive energy—is currently in high demand.

After all, even admirals are human, and with a large number of them, some are bound to make mistakes.

When an admiral makes a mistake, the police in human society, due to their positions and distance, find it inconvenient to travel long distances to punish them. So, the task of maintaining a good atmosphere within the admiral community, arresting admirals with criminal records, and deciding whether to educate the target admiral or simply dismiss them and send them to jail, was simply handed over to a brand-new profession specifically for admirals.

That brand-new profession, naturally, was that of a military policeman.

The job of an admiral means spending the whole day living in a naval base with ship girls. When there are many girls around, it's inevitable that one's heart will flutter.

Aside from the older sister ship girls like battleships, aircraft carriers, light cruisers, and heavy cruisers, smaller ship girls like submarines and destroyers, even with their relatively young appearances, have won over many admirals with their adorable personalities, angelic looks, and unwavering devotion to their commanders. These admirals, who were originally concerned with the fate of the world, have secretly presented the destroyers with wedding rings.

Correct.

I would like to make a solemn statement here.

This is a crime.
