Chapter 21: Iona's Relationship with the General Flagship

After finally gathering all the battleships that could be gathered, Sakura ordered Akashi to replace the flagship equipment of the hull with a super-gravity gun, and dismantle the No. 3 and No. 4 plasma turrets to make some space for backup. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

He left the hull and returned to the surface, walking towards the group and Iona.

"Now the I-401 will be given the first mission since the reorganization of the fleet, right?" said Sakura Misaka. ”

"Please. The group portrait's face and tone were serious.

"Judging from the current original information, although there are more battleships on this side, the total number of battleships is small, and it is difficult to keep other fleets involved, so it is necessary to let the I-401 pass under the First Fleet, detour back to their rear, and find out their reality. You're sure you'll be able to complete this task, right?" Misaka Sakura asked. ”

After all, Sakura's fleet does not have ocean-going observation submarines, and although surface ships also have powerful radars and sonars, they can't use surface ships to reconnoitre, right?

The group statue held his chin and said, "Just in case, I have to confirm first, is our mission to investigate?"

"How so? It should be said that based on the data you have uploaded to the tactical network, even if the I-401 drills under them close to the bottom of the sea, there is a 98.789% chance that it will be detected. Battles are almost unavoidable. Misaka Sakura hereby informs. ”

"It's 31.45% higher than my calculations, why is there so much difference?

"Iona was a traitor to Sea Mist until not so long ago, and a lot of information about equipment will certainly keep you out...... That being said, there is basically no communication between the different fleets, and I can only know that they have a vague information that they have a radar with good performance. Misaka Sakura hereby informs. ”

"Hey, such a messy mission, do you think we're outcasts?" said Xingping.

"How is it possible? No matter how you calculate this task, the I-401 is the most competent, show me your ability to beat my fleet to the brink before, I will not pity you, and when the combat strength of the two sides is similar, intelligence is an important factor in determining victory or defeat, and there is still a place to use it in the future, how can it be an outcast? If you can't come back alive, it means that your value is only that. And—"

Speaking of this, Sakura paused for a moment and accentuated his tone: "Based on your previous battle intelligence analysis, your winning rate in each battle is not superior, in fact, the last time you fought against two battleships, although there were human ships sneak attack, I can't calculate how you have a winning rate in that battle." In human parlance, it's 'gambling' and making the impossible possible. ”

"Well, let's go, then!" the group said, waving his hand, and immediately began issuing orders to the crew and Iona to confirm the ship's condition.

Then, Sakura walked over to Shin Crime: "Sapporo Prime Minister Shin Crime, how are the observers getting ready to board the ship?"

I've asked Ise to tell me something like this before—in order to better familiarize humans with the sea fog and cooperate with the sea fog, although humans are not expected to participate in this operation, some observers can be sent on board.

"You are the mental model of the flagship of the Toyo Second Cruise Fleet, Sakura Misaka, right? Hello, of course those things are ready, a total of twenty-five naval non-commissioned officers and fifteen non-commissioned officer candidates, may I ask which ships are allowed to board your ship?"

"Spontaneously divide into groups of ten and disperse to board the light cruisers and destroyers. I can't guarantee zero battle damage in this battle, that is, people may die, and once the human function is completely stopped, it will not be able to be started again, and I heard that humans cherish life very much, so Misaka Sakura hereby declares. ”

"I've told you about this in advance. They are all enlightened people. True response.

"Sakura, it's easy for you to communicate with all kinds of humans. Haruna said.

"It's not too difficult to accumulate experience points after talking to the crew on the ship, right? Didn't you find the criminal department Makie right away?"

"That...... Please spare me. "Haruna seems to have had some kind of unspeakable experience when she first met Maki-e.

"However, even if the I-401 wins against us, it is obviously impossible to reproduce that tactic, and if we have to break away from the enemy situation in the event of a reconnaissance, can a submarine really do it?" Kirishima asked.

"Hmm-" Sakura nodded, and several mental models switched to the Second Fleet's secret channel, quantum communication—

Sakura: "Don't you think the I-401 has a bigger secret?"

Kirishima & Haruna: "?"

Sakura: "Even if she has a fairly high level of tactics because of the presence of humans on board, as an I-type submarine, even if she can't compare to a battleship, don't you think her computing power is still a bit exaggerated? ”

The multi-link of the hypergravity gun of the Option ship, which originally launched the multi-link super-gravity gun, was the patent of the super-battleship, not even the battleship. Even though the multi-linked hypergravity cannon is Hinata's work, it is designed according to the range that Iona can bear.

Kaohsiung also joined in: "Speaking of which, I was stunned when I saw the I-401 do something like that. ”

Kirishima: "If you get a torpedo into her gravity cannon first, you'll win." At that time, it was clear that it was ready for launch. ”

Kaohsiung: "Long-winded, I don't want to be said to be such a cute guy who used the merge technique and was countered!"

Hinata followed up: "If it's still a pure weapon, Sister Iona will be in danger, but fortunately, it's tsundere Kaohsiung." It's hard to choose between being a machine that is not affected by emotions but has a single movement, or being a 'human' who can use your mind but is influenced by emotions. But seriously, Iona's sister's computing power is really ...... Too...... Hinata I just want it, hehe...... Heh............"

Kirishima: "............"

Sakura: "There's one more question - why since Iona was added to my banner, my mindless model warships have also become - blue, color, !"

Originally, they were all red, but they could be "printed" from just now, except for the green Kirishima, the yellow Haruna, the red Takohsiung, the orange Ise and Hinata, and the Sakura himself was cyan, the other battleships became the same blue as the I-401.

Haruna: "So it wasn't your request?"

Sakura: "I don't have any special requirements for color. Speaking of which, the color of Yamato is also blue."

Haruna: "So, what exactly is Sakura trying to express?"

Sakura: "Sa, I'm going to continue to observe and gather information. ”

Maybe the I-401 has something to do with the general flagship. The I-401 used to be a traitor to the sea flagship, but the traitor of the sea fog has not severed the relationship with the general flagship in terms of computing power, that is, the place that represents the core, and even more closely, and even if he took the initiative to send a message to the general flagship to ask about it, there was no response at all. That is...... Can't think of a conclusion, there is too little intelligence.

Sakura: "Next, let's get ready to sail too." Misaka Sakura commanded...... That being said, Kirishima and Haruna, are you two okay? Why don't you serve as defenders?"

Kaohsiung has already glued a group portrait, so there is no need to confirm it.

Kirishima: "Hey, don't you trust us because we're ships of the former First Fleet? We're weapons, and if we lie about the battle, what do we have left?!"

Sakura: "No, I'm worried about driving you ahead of the curve and clashing with my sisters in the past, doesn't it hurt my feelings? And if the defender betrays me and shoots it in my ass, it's terrible, right? How could I not believe you?" Sakura said sincerely. ”

Kirishima: "Uh, oh, I'm sorry. The tone is too heavy. ”
