Chapter Thirty-Four: Appearance and Separation
"I think I'm a step late......"
The central Qiji on the other side of the real-time video couldn't hold back her anger anymore, and repeatedly accused the water ghost of the berland,
"One step slower? How many times are you going to slow down? Obviously, the cruising submarine has already discovered the damaged remote island Suhime, and I specially sent you a request for help. Pen Γ fun Γ Pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ infoWhy didn't you rush to the target sea area until now? β
"I'm sorry ......"
The central Qihime's expression also became hideous, and a dangerous red-black flash appeared on her hand. "Do you think you're still the one who ran errands behind Sanjo Kirin back then? You are now the vanguard of the Deep Sea Fleet! Because of your dereliction of duty, we have lost another precious Qi Ji combat power! How did you yourself not die under the air raids of the IJN aircraft carrier fleet!! β
"There is intelligence that IJN wants to build a second airport in the Marshall Islands, so I rushed to reconnoiter the facts first."
"What?! Is your mind full of seawater? When the enemy sends out a false message in the message, you believe it to be true and mobilize the people to investigate it yourself? The Marshall Islands is a small piece of land, and it is already the limit to be able to build an airport and a port, and they have built so many forward berths in the South Pacific, and they still have the spare time to build a large number of buildings in the Marshall Islands? I think you're trying to take the opportunity to sink IJN's convoy and escort fleet, right? If you don't have the battlefield command ability of the battleship Suhime, don't fiddle with tricks in front of me! Your task is very simple, procrastinate as much time as possible. Gone! Got it? The opportunity to fight back is coming soon, but not now, so we'll make sure our precious roose are safe and sound. β
After the central perch-hime reprimanded the water ghost in the berth, he raised his hand and made a screen-cutting motion, probably to contact other perched hime. The light screen in front of the water ghost disappeared, and she was very angry in addition to the loss.
"Haven't finished salvage yet?"
The deep-sea light patrols and expulsions who were carrying out the operation hurriedly sped up and fished out the wreckage of the outlying island Qiji in batches.
"Extract the valuable part and send it to the laboratory of the harbor water ghost." The water ghost knew that it was useless to reprimand these subordinates who had no thinking, so his tone became a little calmer again.
"Hehehehe...... Revenge? It's not like I'm dying here now, dismantled by me...... It's just a soldier born under the guidance of the battleship Qi Ji, but he naively wants to be loyal to the other party. You deserve to be blown up here! β
The moored water ghost raised his hand and blew the wreckage of the head of the remote island Suhime to pieces, scattering all kinds of metal and flesh parts in all directions, leaving the destroyers in charge of cleaning at a loss.
"Keep sweeping."
The moored water ghost turned his gaze to a short direction, where part of the ship's wreckage was still floating on the sea. Relying on detection capabilities, she found familiar features from the wreckage of the underwater part. The second Kongo-class ship Hiei was sunk here, probably after being hit through the boiler by the rampaging Tachishima Suhime before retreating, and then the core was shattered.
"There's more than one bad luck."
The Moored Water Ghost was very impressed by Kirishima who dared to confront her naval guns, and he also paid more attention to the same type of ship.
"Although it was an unlucky ship that I shot through, it was killed before it could fight me again. It's boring......"
The Moordi Water Ghost led the rest of the ships to harass the other IJN ships, and if it weren't for the order of the central Suhime, she didn't even plan to "collect the body" of the outlying island Suhime.

"Welcome back. Commander-in-Chief Takayanagi and Commander Kii, who has just arrived, are waiting for you, about this ......"
Tsuchigomon Shouga ignored Yamato's greeting, after all, not only did he not cause obvious damage to the enemy in a battle, but he lost a battleship, and no one is looking good now.
"I see, I'll go see them now. Anything else? β
"Nope." Yamato also felt that it would not be easy to deal with his opponent as an admiral, but as a result, he finished sorting out the day's preparations early in the morning and learned the news of Hiei's sinking. "Nake-chan, you lead the way for the second team."
At Yamato's call, Nako skillfully pulled King Kong towards the newly built wooden house next to the pier. Unlike the chic cottages in Schottland, there are only simple wooden houses that serve as temporary land in the harbour.
"I'm sorry, but I'm going to confirm the battle report with the former general of the Fifth Air Force. Temporarily absent. β
"Thank you for me, and blow up and sink the damn outlying island Suhime."
There was no tone of thanks in the words of the Admiral of the Tsuchimon, but Yamato still nodded and agreed, and it would not be easy to lose the members of the clan and replace anyone.
Kii and Sosuke Takayanagi sat in two chairs, and next to them stood Sato Gonjun and Shentong, both of whom leisurely enjoyed the sweet milk tea of the afternoon, and had not spoken more than 5 sentences since they met at noon.
"Your Excellency Commander-in-Chief Takayanagi, Nake is here with someone from the second team." The supernatural power detected his sister's radio waves first.
Sousuke Takayanagi put down his teacup and deliberately moved his chair to the sunny side to make sure the sun shone behind him. "Kii, that bad dog is running around again. My afternoon show is pretty good, isn't it? Admire the naΓ―ve and miserable appearance of a defeated dog who fights with me, probably he can't bark like he did at Navy headquarters now. β
"You're warning me. Sousuke Takayanagi? β
"I don't dare, you're the daughter of the deep. If the Empire wants to win, it needs to rely on your authority and power. β
Kii didn't know what happened during his return to China, but Sato Gonjun and Takayanagi Sosuke obviously had a correspondence, and the two may have told each other each other's will to see the deep sea, so Takayanagi Sosuke is now in front of Sato Gonjun and Kii, and he is not shy about calling him. "Kaga and you are both people I hate, although you two hate me even more."
Kii didn't want to argue with Sosuke Takayanagi, and unlike Gonjun Sato, who saw where the future went, Sosuke Takayanagi was a vicious gambler who could put the whole world at the table for the sake of his own ideals. Kii doesn't want to talk much about this kind of twisted genius, Sato Gonjun's badness is just a cold bystander, and Sosuke Takayanagi is using the life of the ship girl to complete the gamble in his heart.
Kii regretted a little that he didn't stop the remote island of Suhime, otherwise there would have been a chance to save Hiei.
"......" After entering the door, Tsuchigomon Shouga didn't say a word, he brought a chair and sat next to the door. Let's go. β
Divine powers replaced Yamato's reading work, and she was more rigorous than Yamato, except that the ship was a light cruiser, and her power was not strong enough.
"Just this morning, the aircraft carrier fleet launched an attack and sank the remote island of Suhime. mainly relied on the Admiral Dafeng of the Fifth Air War and the Fourth Mobile Combat Team. At present, it is known that the habitat in the Marshall waters is only moored water ghosts except for the outlying islands. β
"There will be other perchs coming, and I hope it will not be a strong opponent." Sousuke Takayanagi added, "If it's a roadbed like Flyfield-Hime, if you let the aircraft carrier fleet get close, you can directly blow them up." β
"There's no sighting of Shinkihime yet, at least I haven't received this kind of information." Kii couldn't stand the-for-tat posture of the other two after they met, and changed the topic slightly. "It is estimated that the deep-sea habitat will become stronger and stronger in the future, and it is known that they know how to optimize."
Among the three people present, only the Admiral of the Tsuchigomon has the lowest rank, and he is also the one who lacks strength, and he can't compare with Kii and Sosuke Takayanagi by relying on King Kong.
"Tell me what you think. Admiral of the Earth Palace. β
Sousuke Takayanagi had no intention of sparing Shoga Tsuchigomon, who had sunk Hiei, and he still remembers being questioned by a group of old men at the Navy headquarters about the reason for the failure of the plan.
So he took this opportunity to make Tuyumen Shouhe ugly, even if he could only save some face losses.
"Now that we have air supremacy in this area, it will be easier to fight in the future. Battleships are only used to deal with enemies of the Suhime rank. I believe that the two of them have no objection to this. β
Kii knew that to win the series of battles in the New Hebrides, it was all up to the aircraft carriers to control the air power all the time, so that the battleship Suhime could not get close to the artillery bombardment. When Admiral Tuyumen mentioned this, he wanted nothing more than to secretly accuse the other party of thinking of using his second battle team as bait to give the aircraft carrier fleet a chance to blow up and sink the island of Jihime.
"I'm going to give Kii the main attack while Commander Tsuchigomon takes care of the rest.
Sousuke Takayanagi's teasing was limited to a short moment, after all, he was a member of the IJN Combined Fleet and could not put personal emotions first.
"About details...... I've developed a plan to stop the other side. This time, there is also a chance to sink the Moorland Water Ghost. β
As soon as Kii heard this, she knew that Sosuke Takayanagi was going to gamble again, and she just hoped that she wouldn't get the same unlucky errand as the Admiral of the Tsuchigomon.
