Chapter 108: Rumors?
"Good. That's it. Is there anything else you don't understand. The Governor looked at the Admirals in front of him. He paused and said. He had just laid out the defense mission that was about to begin. Although every year. But the attack of the deep sea is not to be underestimated every year. It's not okay not to be careful.
"Nope." The admirals in front of him all responded in unison. But none of them were as serious as the Governor. The voice was sparse. It's all absent-minded.
Smack. I heard that everyone was all powerless. The Governor slapped the table angrily. These bunny cubs. I don't know what the hell I'm thinking all day. Aren't you afraid that your town guard mansion will be broken by the deep sea?
"Give me a little bit of seriousness. This year's deep-sea scale is even larger than in previous years. If you're not careful, you'll ......."
"Ahh Governor. You've been saying this every year. Can't you change it to something else? One of the admirals sat on the couch next to him. Said lazily. He took the hat off his head and fanned the wind. Her blonde hair was wet with sweat and stuck to her face. But even so. You can't hide this guy's handsome face.
"You stinky boy can't be a little disciplined. Didn't you see everyone else standing? "The Governor shouted at this guy with some hatred. Although I was a little dissatisfied. However, this young man named Disa was the strongest of all the admirals present. The number of ship girls in the town guard mansion is the largest. The grade is also the highest. He is also the most likely to take over the position of Governor.
After all, he's not young now. Maybe he will suddenly die that day. No, no, no. It's unlucky to say that. It should be said that he is also a little tired. It's time for a break. It's also time for young people to shine.
Compared to Disa. The admirals standing in front of the governor were not so prominent. The five are the same as Disa. The town guard mansion can be regarded as a large town guard house. It's just that the number and scale of the ship girl are not as many as his.
Especially the man to the Governor's left. Tall and stout. It's also a lot older than the others. Here except for the Governor. He was the oldest. It's a pity that the strength of the Admiral is not determined by age.
Disa is young. He has only been a lieutenant for more than three years. As a result, the size of the town guard grew rapidly. Whenever you build it, it's just like thinking about something. So until now. The number of ships on his guard mansion is not inferior to that of the governor's mansion.
And the middle-aged man can't. from more than 10 years ago. He was the admiral who followed the governor. It's a pity that the face is too dark. The construction has basically never made a rare ship girl. Count the rarest of them. Maybe it's a destroyer like Yukikaze.
Most of the others are ordinary ship girls that everyone can build. Every time a major construction is carried out, it is either Fuso-class or Kongo-class. However, this can be regarded as providing combat power for the new Admiral's change of direction. All the duplicate shipwives who came out of his town guard mansion were sent back to the governor's palace by him. It was redistributed by the Governor to the Lieutenants who were in dire need of the Ship's Lady.
That's how Luke's Fuso came to be. However, Fusang had never even seen the face of this middle-aged admiral. After it was created, Akashi was in charge of transferring it to the Governor's Palace.
However, this middle-aged admiral is not without any advantages for the young man Disa. Although the number of ship girls is not so much. But the level of the ship girl is basically completely superior to Disa. In addition, there is also Akashi who was dispatched by the Governor's Palace. The combat effectiveness is not much worse than that of the town guard of Disa.
The combat effectiveness of the other town guards can only be ranked behind these two people. After all, in terms of seniority, he can't compare to this middle-aged admiral. In terms of face, it is not as good as Disa. Naturally, there are no two people who are as prominent as their combat power.
The second person on the left is also a young man. It's just that the appearance is not very good. But it looks very resolute. Plus a grim expression. Maybe it will be favored by many girls.
Standing in the middle was a woman. She is also the only female Admiral among these Admirals. A neat short haircut. Plus a beautiful face. There is also a very hot body. Let the eyes of the admirals next to her fall on her from time to time. Even Disa, who was sitting next to him, was no exception.
Only the one next to her stared at a pair of dark circles. The Admiral, whose hair was as messy as weeds, didn't care at all. The hat on his head was not properly worn. At this time, he was bored looking out the window. I looked distracted. I don't know if he heard what the Governor had just said.
The admiral on the far right stood straight. A head of black and shiny hair is neatly combed. It's just that his pale face and the haughty look in his eyes have made his appearance score drop a lot. When other people see this guy, they think that this guy looks down on themselves.
"Alright. Nothing. If nothing else, go back. Remember to be vigilant. After shouting at Disa, the Governor sighed. He can't control this kid anyway. Who gave this guy a lot of power in the management of the island. As long as he doesn't drop his chain when facing the deep sea.
The Governor finished. Several admirals answered. Except for the middle-aged admiral who saluted the governor. The others just walked out casually.
The Governor nodded. I also sighed after seeing everyone go out. Alas. Now these people. All of them are so scattered. But the rigorous guys can't do anything. And so on. Perhaps their life as admirals will be difficult.
And now fewer and fewer people are signing up to join the Navy. The same goes for those who want to be admirals. All of them are staring at those high-paying positions. In particular, the gendarmerie and the army formed by the management of the island. The treatment over there is really good. Even many of the little admirals were tempted.
Knock knock.
Just as the Governor's mind was wandering. There was a knock on the office door. With the consent of the Governor. Oyodo walked in with a dozen papers. Behind him was King Kong, who had just returned.
"Oh. It's back. What do you think. There was no trouble with the investigation this time. The Governor looked at King Kong. But I thought to myself, there must be something wrong. Otherwise, King Kong wouldn't have come running to him. Just write a report and hand it in.
King Kong heard the Governor say this. Also nodded. I've been working with the Governor for so many years. She could see that the Governor had guessed that they must be in trouble on their way. So don't hide it either. Immediately reported the situation encountered on the previous return trip.
"What. What you say is true. The Governor looked at King Kong in disbelief. The man also got up from his seat. Wide-eyed at King Kong asked.
"There's a deep sea." The big yodo next to him also looked disbelieving. The documents that I was about to put down in my hand almost slipped out of my hand.
"It's true. Everyone in our squad saw it. King Kong nodded. They had seen the deep sea in Luke's mansion. Even the sea of birds, which was finally cured, saw the three deep seas in Luke's town guard's mansion.
"Hmm." Nodding. Luke took in a deep-sea Fuso, and he knew about it. But I didn't expect this kid to take in three more deep seas. This guy. It's really bold enough. Aren't you afraid of the deep sea attacking him? But it's also true. Why can the three deep seas he took in live in peace with the ship's mother? If you can grasp the reasons why you can make the deep sea and the ship mother coexist peacefully. Is it not the greatest crisis of mankind that can be solved?
But that kid had just repelled a batch of deep seas. That means there is no switch to the deep-sea camp. What's more, no one has ever been able to deal with the deep sea. Even if you want to join the enemy, you don't have that chance.
"I see. Vajra. You go back and tell a few other people. Luke has something about the deep sea, don't reveal it. Let's wait for a moment. The Governor sat down again. But then he realized that there was no way to keep it secret. "King Kong. What did Hayabusa do when he came back? ”
"Uh. She said. Going to drink...... A cup of ......" said that in the end, King Kong also had a finished expression. Hayabusa's big mouth. I can't keep any secrets after drinking.
"Alas. I knew it. Never mind. So be it. I don't need to tell them. We'll talk about that then. It's up to Luke's luck. The Governor shook his head. He can't help now. Hayabusa will leak the news after drinking. And then it reached the ears of others through the staff of the Governor's Mansion or the ship's wife.
……
"Don't move. It's already crowded here. Luke, who was arched by Akashi and almost missed, asked the mechanical arm to throw down the steel that had just arrived, rolled his eyes and said. These two guys. Don't go to rest. I just ran to him to join in the fun. He's not going to do a good job.
"I didn't think there was such a device on there. Do you want to use this to collect those materials from the bottom of the sea? Akashi leaned over the observation window and looked at the huge robotic arm outside. A steel plate torn from the top of the wreck was being sandwiched between it.
"yes. Can't you just look at it honestly like Ashigara? I'm going to throw you out if you mess with me any more. Luke reluctantly controlled the robotic arm. Asahi Akashi complained.
"Yes, yes. I know. "Seeing Luke seems to be really going to get angry. Akashi also had to give in. After saying a few words, he enjoyed the underwater scenery as quietly as Ashgara.
Luke was also relieved. He's not just going to gather this material tonight. Surveying the nearby seabed terrain was also a must. After all, this involves the next expansion plan of the base.
Luke was concentrating on plans for the expansion of the base and how to gather materials. I didn't know anything about the Governor's Palace, which was hundreds of kilometers away. Rumors of his keeping the deep sea have spread quickly.
