“Yes, her name is Ticonderoga,” Xiaobai introduced with a smile, then looked at Ticonderoga and pointed at Bumblebee, saying, “Ticonderoga, you should get to know her, she’s Bumblebee.”

"Hello," Ticonderoga greeted Bumblebee.

"..." Bumblebee stared at Ticonderoga with a scrutinizing gaze. She looked Ticonderoga up and down, then looked away suspiciously, muttering under her breath with a hint of resentment, "What is he? I thought he was so powerful. Humph... looks like he's about the same strength as me."

"..." Ticonderoga.

Well, although Bumblebee's words were somewhat emotional, Ticonderoga surprisingly felt quite honored.

The rookie naval girl... actually thinks her strength is about the same as theirs?

comfortable.

"Bumblebee, could you lend us four more B-25s?" Little White said to Bumblebee.

"Borrow! What do you mean by borrowing! Only when it's borrowed and returned can it be called borrowing!" Bumblebee said angrily upon hearing White's words, "Our naval base has always taken B-25s from me and has never exchanged them for anything! Admiral, don't forget, you still have my B-25 carrier-based aircraft there!"

"Ah..." Xiaobai scratched his cheek awkwardly.

“…?” Ticonderoga listened to their conversation with some confusion.

"Oh, doesn't this just show how high quality your B25 is?" Xiaobai leaned closer, put her hands on Bumblebee's shoulders, and gently massaged them. "Bumblebee, think about it, there are quite a few ship girls in our naval base who can actually create carrier-based aircraft with their bodies, but you are the best among them. Everyone in our naval base knows that your B25 is the most powerful carrier-based aircraft, the foundation of our naval base."

"Admiral..." Bumblebee started to speak, but after only three words, she suddenly hummed and then shut her mouth.

Actually, Lexington said the same thing eight hundred years ago.

This level of manipulation is so overused that Bumblebee is practically tired of hearing it, it's completely ineffective.

But... Xiaobai didn't even seem to realize that she wasn't actually just talking.

As he spoke, Xiaobai's hands pounded and massaged Bumblebee's shoulders. The perfect pressure, like magic, penetrated directly into Bumblebee's skin, giving him a feeling of comfort that spread like ripples across his body.

what……

hiss……

Wait a minute, Admiral's massage technique... how is it so amazing...?

Bumblebee's crossed legs suddenly twitched, and she hummed and lowered her head, her shoulders trembling slightly.

“Bumblebee, how about this? Look, this is your first time in Chapter Eight, right? Why don’t you play around here in Chapter Eight for a bit?” Little White said, rubbing Bumblebee’s shoulders as she whispered in her trembling ear, “Look, there are a lot of entertainment facilities in the President’s Hall. Your sister company is here too. You can go play with her. You can use all the facilities in this hall as you like. Calm down first.”

"..." Bumblebee didn't speak, but as Little White massaged her, a blush gradually appeared on her ears.

"Bumblebee? Bumblebee?"

"Admiral... no... don't talk... ouch..."

"Just give it to me, just give it to me..."

"No...no...I...that's mine...oh..."

"I won't treat you badly, Bumblebee, please, I'll agree to anything you say, okay? You're the best..."

"Mmm...Admiral...Eek..."

"..."

Little White and Bumblebee sang in unison.

Bumblebee was forced into retreat, while Whitebeard pressed forward relentlessly.

Ticonderoga, standing to the side, looked at Little White and Bumblebee with a puzzled expression. She was curious as to why the once fierce Bumblebee had suddenly become so docile.

The super-large one on the side understood.

Seeing Bumblebee trembling and breathing rapidly under Shiro's attacks, retreating step by step, Chao Yamato's eyes revealed a hint of sympathy and understanding.

……

Bumblebee finally gave in.

Bumblebee's compromise was surprisingly simple; Little White found that he only had to beg Bumblebee for a moment before she agreed to lend him the B25.

Oh, so Bumblebee is actually kind-hearted despite his cold exterior...

Xiaobai had previously heard from Lexington that borrowing B-25 from Bumblebee was even harder than getting the Deepsea Dean to surrender. She initially thought Bumblebee was really difficult to deal with, but she didn't expect the process to be so simple.

Ok……

It seems... Lexington didn't realize that.

When Hornet shakily took out four B-25 carrier-based aircraft and handed them to Xiaobai with difficulty, Xiaobai quickly let go of Hornet's shoulder and took the aircraft.

Bumblebee breathed a sigh of relief, then collapsed onto the sofa, his face flushed, hugging his thighs and panting heavily. The rosy complexion seemed to extend all the way down to his neck.

"Hey? Bumblebee, why did you fall down?" Little White asked with concern.

"I...I can't take it anymore...Admiral...I can't take it anymore...Please let me go..." Bumblebee murmured softly, her eyes glazed over. "B-25 is yours, okay...Here you go, take it..."

"?" Little White tilted its head, looking at Bumblebee with some curiosity.

As for Bumblebee... I think... things are probably fine for now, right?

Seeing that Bumblebee seemed to be just a little irritated, probably from being angry, Xiaobai simply went up to Bumblebee and said, "Then you should rest well." He then turned around and handed the four B-25 carrier-based aircraft to Ticonderoga, who was watching the show with a bewildered expression.

"Ticonderoga, you can use this," Little White said to Ticonderoga with a smile.

"This, this is B25...?"

Ticonderoga, holding the four carrier-based aircraft in his arms, felt only tension.

Colorful light shimmered in his arms, as if he were holding a huge, incomparably precious diamond.

Ticonderoga never imagined she would have this day, that she could actually use colored equipment, and four of them at once...

"Keep your old equipment here," Xiaobai said to Ticonderoga.

"Ah... okay, okay." Ticonderoga blushed, glanced cautiously at the golden carrier-based aircraft on the small white table, and nodded softly.

Does the admiral mean... she wants to take her previous carrier-based aircraft as a souvenir?

It's a little embarrassing...

After a brief moment of disorientation, Ticonderoga, following White's orders, thanked the Hornet, who was lying motionless on the sofa, while carrying the B-25 carrier-based aircraft, and then left the office.

Xiaobai went to the sofa to check on Bumblebee's condition and found that Bumblebee had fallen asleep with a satisfied look on his face.

Young ship girls are great, they can fall asleep as soon as they lie down.

Xiao Bai took out a pillow and placed it under Bumblebee's head before returning to his desk.

……

On Ticonderoga's side, after equipping herself with the B25 carrier-based aircraft, she led her Royal Guard ship girls out to sea to challenge the Black Tower.

The Black Tower remains as bustling as it was yesterday.

Every now and then, ship girls with dejected expressions would appear around the Black Tower, lamenting that they had been defeated again between the eighth and ninth floors.

Other ship girls waited anxiously on the sidelines, asking when the Admiral's Guild would release a strategy guide, and so on...

The ship girls of the Royal Guard quickly entered the Black Tower as they had hoped.

Currently, only ten levels of the Black Tower are open to the public. The first five levels are the first section, which opened the day before yesterday, while levels five through ten opened yesterday. Ship girls entering the Black Tower will start their challenge from the first level of the previous level they have already cleared.

For example, if a fleet has never challenged the Black Tower before, then even today, with the opening of the second section, it will start from the first floor when it tries to challenge the Black Tower. However, if a fleet has cleared the first section, it will start from the sixth floor.

The Black Tower seems to have a peculiar mechanism that can distinguish and identify the naval bases to which the ship girls belong. Even if different ship girl teams belong to the same naval base, their "save" data for conquering the Black Tower is shared.

After entering the Black Tower, the guards arrived at the sixth floor.

The sixth layer of deep-sea strength is not as strong as the fifth layer, but it is stronger than the third and fourth layers.

As the first floor of the second section, this floor is indeed significantly more difficult than floors one through five.

The moment the Royal Guard appeared on the water, the Deep Sea Fleet rushed over, gritting their teeth and screaming. Just as the Royal Guard's ship girls were preparing to fight, Ticonderoga raised her hand and pointed to the sky. The next second, countless colorful carrier-based aircraft poured out from her ship rigging, instantly covering the entire sky.

Countless bombs rained down from the sky.

Boom! The deafening explosions instantly engulfed the entire sea. The deep-sea ships didn't even have time to react before they were engulfed in flames by the overwhelming explosions and instantly shattered.

Chapter 4023 Let's fight the boss!

This is... a devastating blow!

Almost instantly, accompanied by thunderous explosions, the deep-sea fleet on the sixth floor of the Black Tower was swept away by Ticonderoga's overwhelming firepower under the surging firepower of B25.

The other five ship girls in the guard were immediately dumbfounded.

"……what?"

"...It's...it's over in seconds??"

The other five ship girls stared wide-eyed at Ticonderoga.

"Captain? You...you...how could you have been wiped out by them in an instant?!"

"How did you do that?!"

"I...I haven't even started yet!"

The five ship girls in the guard were utterly shocked.

Following past tactical deployments, in engagements with the Abyssal Fleet, the Royal Guard ship girls typically employ a coordinated combat strategy. The ship girls responsible for front-line disruption will strike first, their primary task being to draw the Abyssal Fleet's attention as much as possible while skillfully covering the rear-line damage-dealing ship girls, creating a safe and secure environment for them to deal damage. Meanwhile, the rear-line damage-dealing ship girls will only attack at opportune moments, maximizing their opportunities to inflict massive damage on the enemy fleet.

This is one of the most frequently used and most proficient tactics by the Royal Guard ship girls.

However, the development of the battle at this time seemed to be different from what the Royal Guard ship girls had expected... The Abyssal Fleet had just appeared, and before the front-line ship girls could even lay down smoke for cover, why did Tikandroga make its move?

And most importantly... how come today's deep-sea fleet is as fragile as paper, wiped out by Ticonderoga's gentle bombing?!

The other five ship girls in the Royal Guard were truly terrified by Ticonderoga's firepower.

In their minds, while their captain was indeed very strong, that so-called "strength" was mostly in her technical skills in piloting carrier-based aircraft. As for firepower... she shouldn't be strong enough to wipe out an entire deep-sea fleet with ease...

They had never seen Ticonderoga so valiant.

At this moment, in the eyes of the other five guard ship girls, Ticonderoga, who had released a sky full of carrier-based aircraft, stood alone on the water. She was surrounded by sea breeze, her long twin ponytails swayed in the wind behind her, and her black trench coat was flapping loudly in the sea breeze. Together with the colorful carrier-based aircraft flying all over the sky, she looked like a mysterious hermit.

The carrier-based aircraft hovered in the sky as they returned to Ticonderoga's side. She gently raised her rigging and took the aircraft into the rigging runway.

Under the watchful eyes of her five teammates, Ticonderoga's serious face slowly relaxed, she exhaled, and a bead of cold sweat slowly appeared on her cheek.

How terrifying!

Ticonderoga's heart skipped a beat as he looked at the Abyssal Fleet reduced to ruins in the distance.

Is this... the firepower of a full complement of B-25 carrier-based aircraft...?

This is such terrifying damage output, it's almost unbelievable that I could produce such high damage...

Ticonderoga gazed at the distant wreckage of the fleet, swallowed hard, and looked down at her palm with a strange expression.

Ticonderoga knew his own fighting strength better than anyone else.

As a well-trained aircraft carrier girl, she believed that she had reached the world's leading level in the field of controlling carrier-based aircraft. Even compared with the real aircraft carrier powerhouses, she was not far behind them in terms of technology... At most, she was just lacking some experience in on-the-spot response.

But... technology is just technology after all. Some things are innate and difficult to change.

That is "firepower".

The "firepower" that Ticonderoga's carrier equipment can output is fixed. In fact, all ship girls in the world are the same. What ship girls cultivate throughout their lives is nothing more than the skills of operating ship equipment and combat experience. As for the grade of ship equipment and the so-called panel values, these things are fixed as a fixed value the moment the ship girls are born. Even if they are affected by "skills" and "modification", they will not be changed by the ship girls' mere training level.

Ticonderoga's previous ship equipment firepower was absolutely insufficient to allow her to wipe out an entire Abyssal Fleet in one wave. This is why even a ship girl as powerful as Ticonderoga needs the support and cover of her teammates in high-intensity battles.

Normally... that opening bombardment, even with all-out effort, would at most have only damaged more than half of the deep-sea amphibious ships in the deep-sea fleet.

This is the limit of Ticonderoga's ship equipment; it's the limit of its numerical values.

But just now... Ticonderoga's opening bombardment sank an entire deep-sea fleet in one fell swoop... This terrifying firepower was far beyond what Ticonderoga could have imagined before.

Not only his five comrades in the royal guard, but even now, Ticonderoga himself was terrified by his own performance.

She could hardly believe that the devastating opening bombardment she had just witnessed was her doing.

This is... a full complement of colorful equipment...

Ticonderoga finally truly understood why her former instructor had said that "the difference between the colored equipment and the gold equipment on an aircraft carrier is indescribable," and why her usually stern face had become so animated when she talked about the colored equipment.

Are these newbie carrier girls in the naval base living such wonderful lives?

The world's number one naval base has a terrifying amount of resources...

Ticonderoga lowered her hand and turned to look at her companions, who were also staring at her with wide eyes.

"Captain! Why didn't you say anything just now?!"
