Elder brother's garrison

Lexington calmed the other ship girls down, telling them not to worry, before leading the carrier ship girls who had stepped forward and Abyssal Yamato away from the courtyard.

It's not particularly rare in this city for six or seven ship girls to venture into the sea before the official start of the Abyssal event. After all, even before the event officially begins, there are still some idle Abyssal ships on the edge of the safe zone. Many ship girls enjoy harvesting these mobile Abyssal metals.

On the beach, six ship girls rode the Abyssal Yamato straight towards the sea, wading through the water without slowing down or stopping, and rushed directly out of the safe zone.

The ship girls patrolling the beach saw yet another group of ship girls carrying Abyssal Yamato running towards the sea, and they quickly sped up to intercept them. Unfortunately, this time, they still couldn't catch up.

This group of ship girls was incredibly fast, as if they had accelerators under their feet. They could only helplessly watch as the six ship girls carried people out of the safe zone.

"What a shrew!" The patrolling ship girl stomped her foot angrily, looking as if she had encountered a lot of lunatics today. "Do these people really enjoy bringing people into enemy territory?!"

Xiao Bai examined the surrounding deep-sea amphibious ships.

This place is still a bit far from the actual main force of the deep-sea amphibious ships. As an active deep-sea force, its numbers are beyond the imagination of ordinary people. Although there are many deep-sea amphibious ships around Xiaobai, they are still far from reaching the level of an active deep-sea force.

Shiro bought a small amount of chocolate cake for Deep Sea Musashi, but Deep Sea Musashi kept eating it, and the one she was holding now was the last piece.

"That's all." Deep Sea Musashi looked at the empty plastic bag and said with some disappointment.

"After all, we didn't buy many..." Xiaobai explained.

Deep Sea Musashi rubbed her belly and kicked her legs a few times on the surface of the water. She looked around a few times, then stared blankly for a while.

The surrounding scenery consisted of monotonous black water, with some unsuspecting deep-sea ships floating back and forth like corpses, their red lights flashing.

Deep Sea Musashi didn't feel anything while eating the chocolate cake, but suddenly realized something after finishing it.

She was getting a little bored.

I only spent a few days in human society, but I never expected such a stark contrast.

Deep Sea Musashi felt the cool touch of the deep-sea destroyer beneath him, recalling the bustling and noisy scenes of the sea city.

—It suddenly feels so quiet.

A feeling of loneliness immediately enveloped Deep Sea Musashi's heart, clinging to her chest like sticky glue, making her feel extremely uncomfortable.

Deep Sea Musashi turned to look at Shiro.

Little White was currently climbing on the destroyer, reaching out to touch the seawater.

"Is this something I can't touch?" Seeing Deep Sea Musashi staring at him, Shiro quickly withdrew his hand.

Deep Sea Musashi silently watched Shiro.

The monotonous rustling sound of the deep-sea ships sailing in the distance reached Deep Sea Musashi's ears.

Deep Sea Musashi reached out and picked up Shiro from beside him, placing him on his lap. Feeling the warmth emanating from the admiral's body, the loneliness and isolation in Deep Sea Musashi's heart finally began to melt away a little.

Humans... aren't they actually pretty good?

Sensing Shiro's question, Deep Sea Musashi tightened his grip on her slightly, trying to increase the area of ​​his skin in contact with her.

"Musashi-neechan?"

"Well."

"Have you finished your chocolate pie?"

"Ah."

Unlike Deep Sea Musashi, who felt warmth, Shiro felt the opposite. Deep Sea Musashi was in the body of the Deep Sea Dean at his peak, and because of the intense resentment from the Deep Sea, his whole body was ice-cold. When he was picked up, it felt like entering an ice cellar.

"...Um, would you like to eat more?"

"Ah."

"I don't have chocolate cake right now, that's all I buy."

"..."

"How about I go back and buy it?" Xiaobai asked tentatively.

"No." Deep Sea Musashi tightened his grip on Shiro a little more.

The feeling of being tightly bound by a soft, cool, and plump body might be quite enjoyable for certain masochistic users, but it doesn't feel comfortable for beginners.

Even Yamato's hug was much warmer than Musashi's hug.

Wait a minute... Yamato-neechan... Musashi-neechan...

Xiao Bai's train of thought suddenly stopped.

Hey, wait?

The Abyssal Fleet also has an origin; like the ship girls, their physical forms exist in history. For example, Yamato and Pachina both have corresponding historical basis.

So, if that's the case, isn't Deep Sea Musashi also one?

The Musashi was a very famous ship in history, as she was the sister ship of the Yamato and a super-giant ship that witnessed the decline of the cannon era together with her older sister Yamato.

In other words... the person hugging you now is Yamato's sister?

After a brief moment of thought, Xiaobai came to this conclusion.

Then, Xiaobai was shocked.

Chapter 421 That model worker is back! (Third update)

So the Abyssal Fleet has a sister ship too.

As Yamato Abyss once said, the relationship between Abyssal Fleet ships is far less intimate than that between ship girls. While part of this is because Abyssal Fleet ships are the type that prefer war, another undeniable reason is that the intelligence of lower-level Abyssal Fleet ships makes it difficult for Yamato Abyss to consider them as partners.

After all, they're a bunch of moving, hard steel blocks that would risk their lives to help you die with just a wave of their hand; they're consumable items. Who would want to develop feelings for such things?

Naturally, the deep-sea deans who grew up in this environment developed an unusually detached attitude towards their fellow countrymen.

In fact, human society describes the deep sea in this way, portraying it entirely as a monster that disregards emotions and only knows how to kill, a group of irrational beings.

However, there are two deans in the Little White Garrison, and their emotional elements are far more complex than those of cold-blooded monsters.

"Musashi-neechan?"

"Well?"

"Do you have an older sister?" Xiaobai asked.

“…Yamato,” Musashi replied.

I knew it all along.

Xiao Bai gave a wry smile.

The flagship for this deep-sea event is actually Yamato's sister! I wonder how Yamato will react when she finds out.

Xiaobai wouldn't tell Deepsea Musashi that Deepsea Yamato was currently staying at her home, after all, who knows what Deepsea Musashi would do if he knew his sister was staying at his naval base.

But now doesn't seem like the right time to be thinking about this.

Deep Sea Musashi doesn't talk much; most of the time, Shiro asks her questions and she answers them, so it's quite easy for Shiro to have some peace and quiet.

So she's already starting to think about her escape plan.

……

"so lonely."

Deep Sea Musashi's calm yet subtly sorrowful murmur echoed in Shiro's ears.

Xiaobai turned around in surprise and looked at Deep Sea Musashi behind him.

"Musashi-neechan, you..."

Just as Xiaobai was about to say something, Shenhai Musashi's eyes sharpened, and then a strong fighting spirit erupted from her body like a flood.

"There are enemies." Deep Sea Musashi released his grip and coldly stared towards the temporary sea area.

The sound of water breaking echoed as Deep Sea Musashi spoke, and a flurry of water erupted from the seabed, accompanied by shimmering golden-red light. In an instant, a vast number of Deep Sea Abyssal Ships filled the entire area, their beast-like roars mingling with the rumble of machinery, recklessly advancing into the distance under Deep Sea Musashi's gaze.

Deep Sea Musashi had already let go, and Shiro quickly climbed back onto the Deep Sea Destroyer from Deep Sea Musashi's plump thighs.

"Don't be afraid," Deep Sea Musashi said, turning to Shiro. "I'll protect you."

"Uh... well... thank you." Xiaobai didn't know what to say, so she could only nod with a rather embarrassed smile.

It feels incredibly incongruous that a commander of a human society like myself is being told to protect a flagship during a deep-sea operation.

Deepsea Musashi stood up from the Deepsea Destroyer, leaving the space to Shiro.

Deep Sea Musashi didn't stray far from Shiro, seemingly wanting to keep his promise to protect Shiro, staying by his side at all times.

The roar of carrier-based aircraft reached my ears like thunder.

Soon, on the other side of the sea, a vast array of carrier-based aircraft broke through the deep sea fog and rushed towards this side.

The figures of the seven ship girls slowly emerged on the other side of the horizon. When Xiaobai looked over, he saw that they were the aircraft carrier ship girls of the naval base, led by Akagi.

As expected of a rookie naval base ship girl, her sense of danger is so strong; she was able to find herself in less than half an hour.

Looking at the familiar ship girls, Xiaobai was deeply moved.

The aircraft carrier girls' gazes quickly swept across the enemy's hands on the sea surface, finally settling on Shiro next to Abyssal Musashi.

The group of aircraft carrier girls breathed a sigh of relief in unison, and the fierceness in their eyes lessened.

As the newly awakened Dean of the Deep Sea, Abyssal Musashi naturally couldn't understand the meaning behind the ship girls' expressions. She didn't even consider that these might be ship girls looking for Shiro, and simply assumed that all the ship girls who invaded her territory were enemies with purely ulterior motives.

Deepsea Musashi stepped forward, shielding Shiro behind her, and glared fiercely at the ship girls in the distance. As she moved, the deep-sea ships behind her charged towards the ship girls with howls.

On this side of the sea, the ship girls' expressions finally softened after seeing Abyssal Musashi and the unharmed Shiro.

"As expected, nothing happened." Although what he expected turned out to be the same as reality, Lexington still breathed a sigh of relief. "Everyone be careful, don't start fighting right away, it's easy to accidentally hurt Little White."

The ship girls nodded in agreement, then all looked at the Deepsea Yamato at the very back of the formation.

"Uh." Deep Sea Yamato stared at the six ship girls in front of her with a strange expression for a while, then swallowed and walked towards the front of the group.

Lexington brought Deepsea Yamato to the Deepsea Territory with his own reasons. Deepsea Yamato once said that the Deepsea Deans were like tigers entrenched in their own territories, kings of their respective deep-sea domains, and such beings would never allow anything to threaten their position within their territory.

This is why Yamato dared not return to the sea for a long time, fearing that he would be found and killed by the newly born Deep-Sea Masters in the area.

Regardless of the reasons why the Deepsea Commander kidnapped Shiro, Lexington's top priority was simply to rescue Shiro from the Deepsea Fleet. Therefore, they couldn't engage in direct combat with the Deepsea Fleet. After all, the ship girls' destructive power was too great; even a single area-of-effect attack could easily injure Shiro.

In conclusion, diverting the enemy's attention is the best option.

And no one is more suitable as a target for diverting attention than the former director of the Deep Sea Institute.

The advancing deep-sea amphibious ships came to a complete stop, as if they had been remotely controlled.

Deep Sea Musashi and Shiro also saw Deep Sea Yamato coming up from the back of the group.

"Yamato-neechan..." Shiro murmured unconsciously.

Deepsea Musashi stared blankly at Deepsea Yamato in front of the ship girl team, and her expression suddenly turned panicked.

"Hmm? That Dean..." As Deep Sea Yamato stepped out of the group and saw the Deep Sea flagship, he frowned.

"What's wrong?" Lexington asked. "Is it someone we know?"

"No, but it feels subtly familiar," Yamato Fukami said.

"Familiar?" Lexington said, then suddenly covered her ears. "Huh? Little White, you've finally used the Admiral's Network... Um, oh, I see. It's alright, how are things on your end? It's good that you're okay. Hmm? Okay, I understand."

Yamato glanced at Lexington, who appeared to be in conversation with Shiro via the Admiral's Network.

“Yamato,” Lexington said, withdrawing her hand from her ears and addressing Deep Sea Yamato, “you’re right.”

"Huh? What did I say?"

"She is your sister."

"???" Deep Sea Yamato looked completely bewildered. "Friend, stop! What did you say?"

“She is Deep Sea Musashi, your sister ship,” Lexington said.

"? ?" Yamato was once again completely bewildered.

Holy crap, is that Deep Sea Dean standing next to Xiaobai like a final boss my sister? What kind of ridiculous plot is this?

"In short, that's how it is." Lexington looked troubled. "If it's a sister ship, you probably won't be able to be used as bait anymore. Why don't you go up and help us persuade her to return Little White?"

"You think I enjoy being bait?!" Deep Sea Yamato protested. "Luckily, this time it was my sister..."

"Roar!" Before the words were finished, Deep Sea Musashi in the distance opened his mouth wide and roared like a giant beast in extreme anger.

In an instant, rings of sound waves enveloped the entire sea area and surrounded Lexington and his party.
