Underground shipyard, where everyone meets in the main room of the third shipyard.

Special giants, workers, support staff, and pre-drafters came to the shipbuilding room of Noda.

Allen, Armin, and Mikasa, who have changed into uniforms, line up under the chassis of the finished warship.

On the makeshift podium, Erwin, Hanji, and Ian stood above.

"Captain Erwin is here, which means that we are going to sail." Armin patted his face: "Time flies so fast, it's been three months all at once." ”

"The location has been decided." Alan whispered, "Go to the area of the Eastern Kingdom, where it seems that many small countries have been wiped out by Marlai. ”

Armin pondered the intention of this route: "I remember, we went this time to establish a stronghold on the mainland, to find a way to bring technology from outside the walls to the island, is it to win over the people of the dead country?" ”

"Wait a minute, the next conference should explain to us." Alan whispered.

"Alan." Mikasa softly called out Alan's name.

"What's wrong, Mikasa?" Alan asked.

"You didn't button it properly." Mikasa reached out and helped Eren unbutton his collar, his face close to each other, his breath audible.

After tying it up, Mikasa stood back in his original position.

Eren quietly glanced at Mikasa's side face and pressed his chest.

For some reason, his heartbeat suddenly accelerated.

I always feel... Recently, Mikasa has a good smell on his body...

On stage, Erwin, with the help of a megaphone, began to speak.

"So, let's start our first sailing meeting."

"The Marais ship left the port yesterday, and according to their custom, the next landing on the island is expected to be twenty-eight days later."

"So starting tomorrow, we will successively transport the parts of Navy No. 1 to the natural port by the sea through the special giant for assembly."

"The scheduled time of departure is the evening in five days, and below, I will publish the list of people who will board the ship, and those who read it will go out and stand in the empty area on my right..."

Erwin began to read people's names one by one and assign tasks.

Mikasa is in the combat detachment led by Levi, and Armin is in the technical team.

Allen is in the Giants detachment with Mick and Hannes.

As for Dinah, although she is also on the list, due to her personal wishes, she is only involved in logistics and does not participate in combat-related matters.

At this meeting, Alan Yageger, Dina Frieze, and Ian were listed as the first protection targets, and the safety of these three should be prioritized in any case.

After the meeting, the dissolution was announced, free activities, and the workers, who had been busy for most of the year, finally had a period of rest.

Tonight, the cafeteria prepared a sumptuous meal with meat, soup, and bread.

Ymir's favorite chicken fries are available in unlimited quantities, and she recently has a new seasoning, ketchup, which she can't get enough of.

Considering that when she got on the boat, the chance to eat chicken and fries would become very rare, so she worked hard to cook.

In the early morning of the next day, hundreds of giants, under the command of the power of the ancestors, carried the 40-meter-long chassis of the Navy One to the sand.

A total of seven layers of hull structure were mounted on the chassis.

Large parts were constantly being shipped out and assembled on the chassis, and from time to time the Armored Giant used its ability to harden and reinforce the ship.

At noon on the fifth day, Navy One was assembled, and Hannes transformed into a super-large giant, a 60-meter-tall super-large giant, dug through the sand with the palm of his hand, and pushed Navy One into the sea.

The depth of the nearby sea water was measured before the shipyard was selected, and they built the ship in a natural port.

According to calculations, Navy No. 1 has a displacement of 5,000 tons, and the two sides of the hull are equipped with armored turrets that can rotate 360 degrees, making it a veritable "ironclad ship".

This is the warship of Paradis Island, which took almost a year to build.

The majestic steel ship, towering and motionless in the tide, and the all-steel hull looks like an iron mountain.

Dwarf giants carried bags of food and ammunition to warehouses in the cabins, and workers, along with soldiers, walked through the passages and rooms in the cabins, hanging the "giant lamps" in dark places and illuminating them.

In the evening, the inspection of the voyage was completed.

Everyone boarded the ship and stood on the deck of Navy One, watching the sunset.

The sea was dyed the color of sunset with the red sun, and as the sun set over the horizon, Ian looked up and saw seagulls skimming across the sky.

The giant in the power room began to shake the crank, and the gears drove the propeller to turn.

The bow of the ship, which clears the sea, moves around the surface of the sea at speeds between 20 and 30 nautical miles, faster than the large wind-powered galleons, but not as fast as the steam-powered battleships of the Marais.

However, using giants as a power has unique advantages:

For example, it is clean and pollution-free, there is no need to carry fuel, and even if there is no supply, it can continue to move forward at sea, etc.

As long as the power room is not directly attacked, the possibility of failure is basically eliminated, and the safety and reliability are very high.

Alan and Mikasa held the railing and stood together looking out at the calm sea.

Mikasa pointed to the sunset and said that it was so beautiful, and the sea breeze in the sunset blew away her bangs, and Eren was fascinated for a while.

Armin found Jean and Connie, and the two broken guys, to enjoy the sea view together.

The Captain's Room, Ian and Hanji, record the data of Navy One after it was launched.

From the captain's room, the giant in the power room can be directly controlled, and the eyes and nose of the giant can be pressed by using a trigger mechanism to control whether the giant turns the crank, and the direction in which they turn the crank, to achieve the same effect as a steering wheel.

The overall stats were perfect, and although they cobbled together the boat, the sailing performance exceeded expectations.

Ian kept the data recorded late into the night, inspecting and wandering around key locations on Navy One.

"That's all for today, I'm sorry everyone, go back and rest, and we'll continue tomorrow." Ian said to fellow workers.

He was in the power room, the giants were lying on the ground, and the iron buckles that could be switched on and off fixed their waists, legs, and necks, and behind each giant there was a window that received light, and on the window there was an iron lid that opened up and down, and the moonlight shone on the giant's body.

These are the "moonlight giants" that can act at night, the moonlight is the reflection of the sun's rays, and a small number of strange species can act under the moonlight, these giants are the "rare species" selected by the tens of thousands of giants in the wall.

At night, too, they tirelessly shake the cranks to power Navy One.

After dismissing the workers, Ian returned to his room and lay down on his bed.

Although space on the ship was tight, he still had a single room with its own studio.

He was really tired today, he lay down in bed and quickly fell asleep.
