The time-based admiral of KanColle

"This is discrimination, meow!"

"Hmm, how can I, the king, come to your Sakura Empire in person without bringing servants with me?"

Elizabeth raised her little nose proudly, raised her little scepter, and said complacently: "Otherwise, I will not go to your shabby wooden house."

"That's not the case, meow! I only mentioned the matter about Yaxu to Mikasa and the others. No one else knows about it, meow. If you go over there like this, you will definitely be misunderstood, meow!"

Looking at the mischievous little ship girls from the White Eagle and Royal families who had stars in their eyes and were looking for fun, Akashi shrugged his ears and explained weakly.

After all, except for Akagi and the others, most of the Sakura Empire's shipgirls still think that humans are trouble, so they don't want to interact with them. Therefore, even if Yaxu has been hanging around in Sakura Empire for a while, the Sakura Empire's shipgirls he met will ignore him.

However, thanks to Akagi and the others for giving advance notice, otherwise their attitude towards Yaxu, a human who came to their Sakura Empire with such brazenness, would not be simply ignoring him.

Looking at Mingshi's embarrassed expression, Yaxu couldn't help but smile and rubbed Mingshi's green velvet cat ears, then put Mingshi down and took the initiative to say: "In this case, I will go over with Mingshi to say hello."

"But……"

"Well, we are not enemies, so there is no need to be wary of them."

Seeing that Qiye was frowning again and seemed hesitant to speak, Yaxu smiled reassuringly and then poked Mingshi.

----

The heavy cherry blossoms standing on the mountain can be reached from a red wooden plank road sandwiched between cherry trees. Therefore, looking down from the outer railings of the Japanese-style buildings surrounding the top of the mountain, the scenery from a high vantage point is still very nice.

"Everyone, come and see, there is a wild human over there!"

Lying on a high wooden fence, a ship girl with a black furry dog ​​tail constantly shaking was looking at the winding mountain road below. She used her sharp orange-red eyes to notice Yaxu, who did not use time stop, but was slowly coming up with Akashi.

"Humph, idiot Shigure, Lord Yukikaze knows that, everyone said that human is Akagi's lover!"

A small hand grabbed the bubble socks of Shigure who was lying on the wooden railing, and the little ship girl named Xuefeng also jumped up. Under her long silver hair, her orange-red animal eyes immediately spotted Yaxu and Doraemon Akashi who was carrying a flying device.

"You're lying! He's obviously Atago's lover. I saw him when I passed by the kendo gym that time!"

Shigure immediately retorted, with her dark ears erected in protest. Seeing this, Xuefeng also raised her exposed waist high, excitedly raised her snow-colored tail, and bared her fangs threateningly: "Xuefeng saw that the human went fishing in the lake with Sister Kaga!"

"That human...is called Yaxu."

While the two little guys were quarreling happily, Ayanami, who was sitting under the wooden fence and drinking matcha silently, raised her head with red and white mechanical ears and turned to look at Yukikaze and Shigure who were pulling each other's faces: "I sometimes spar with him when I go to the kendo hall to exercise."

"What!? Can that human fight you, Ayanami? Is he that strong?"

Hearing this, Shigure jumped down curiously, then came to Ayanami who was sitting on the bench, and secretly stretched out his little paws with colorful nails to touch the two strings of double-sakura dumplings next to Ayanami.

"Well, it's just that he's basically defensive-oriented."

With a shameless face, Ayanami silently looked at Shigure who was stealing her meatballs and said in a low voice.

"Humph, if Lord Xuefeng were to come, humans would definitely be so scared that they would kneel down!"

With his head held high, Xuefeng jumped down, sneaked towards Shigeo Maruko, put his legs wrapped in white silk knee-high socks together, and sat next to Ayanami: "Sister Xuefeng is so great that even humans would worship him!"

Um, the meatballs...are gone.

Holding the matcha in both hands, Ayanami fell into silence.

"that……"

At this moment, a gentle voice suddenly sounded, and another Sakura Empire ship girl came out from the opening with the rolled-up curtain, holding a plate.

"Don't take the initiative to cause trouble for that human, otherwise Akagi-senpai and the others will be angry. Yukikaze, Shigure, come have a cup of tea, eat some snacks and take a rest."

"Azuma-sister, do you have any yokan?"

After seeing that there were rare snacks to eat again, Xuefeng and Shigure immediately gathered over.

"We've run out of chestnut powder, so no one has any yokan to eat for a while. I've asked Kongo-sister to help find Shiranui to buy some."

The ship girl named Azuma, who also had a long heavy Sakura sword on her waist, sat next to Ayanami with a pile of meatballs and a humble smile.

With the white navy uniform of the Japanese Sakura Empire draped over her shoulders, Azuma sat down and gently gathered her plump and tight thighs together. Then she placed the long Japanese Sakura Empire sword on the black stockings on her legs. The warm sun's light reflected on the scabbard, and also contrasted the luster on her thighs.

"Ah? Lord Yukikaze wants to eat delicious yokan~~~"

Suddenly, Yukikaze dropped her ears in disappointment, while Shigure threw herself on Azuma and buried her head in her huge breasts that were about to burst out of her bulging uniform, and said coquettishly, "Don't give yokan to the willful Yukikaze. I, Shigure, am a favorite of the higher-ups, so come and use yokan to please Master Shigure~"

"The famous guy above, Shigure in Sasebo? Haha, you are really amazing, Shigure."

After hearing this, Azuma, who was also a design ship with no past, smiled and rubbed Shigure, then smiled with emotion and said, "Since the seniors from the Sakura Empire seem to be difficult to get along with, I'll leave it to Shigure."

"What!? For things like this, you should rely on my great, lucky Master Yukikaze!"

Snap, snap.

Biting the meatball that had just been served, Ayanami looked at Yukikaze and Shigure who were arguing with each other as usual, and began to watch the show.

----

"Meow? Do you want Akashi to take you up there, meow?"

"no."

Yaxu, who was climbing the mountain on the plank road, turned his head and looked at Mingshi, who was wearing a flying device and flying beside him as if he was hung up. He quickly waved his hands, as he felt it would be embarrassing if he wore that thing.

Because Akashi's long green whip can reach his ankles, in order not to dirty his hair with black ribbons, Akashi basically carries a flying device when he goes out.

Of course, Yaxu thought that he should not try that wonderful Doraemon device.

Chapter 234: Sakura~Zoo

Do you know what the biggest feature of the Sakura Empire is? It is a zoo complex.

Even in the outside world, everyone knows that the way to confirm whether someone is a Sakura Empire ship girl is to see if she has any special characteristics.

Although it is not absolutely accurate, most of the Sakura Empire's shipgirls have cats, dogs, foxes, and even big-tailed raccoons. In addition, there are the Sakura Empire's shipgirls with horns that are called ghosts.

Arriving at the Sakura Empire dormitory area on the top of the mountain, Yaxu couldn't help but look around curiously at the Japanese-style buildings with layered dance pavilions and the Sakura Empire ship girls passing by from time to time.

Although he had spent quite some time in Sakura Empire, Yaxu naturally would not dare to venture into any place other than where Akagi and the others lived, so wandering around Sakura Empire was quite new to him.

After seeing a little ship girl with sea-blue horns on her forehead passing by, Yaxu couldn't help but say, "It feels like visiting a free zoo..."

According to Shiranui, a ship girl who does not want to reveal her name, in order to avoid embarrassment for a small number of ship girls in the Sakura Empire who do not have animal ears or demon horns, she also provides mechanical head decorations for free.

"By the way, Akashi, why don't you live in Sakura City?"

Gently smelling the delicate fragrance here, Yaxu came to the huge mountaintop lake of Shigekura, looking at the water bridge extending into the deeper part of Shigekura, and couldn't help but ask curiously.

"Nyan? Because the big ship girls are good at playing the piano, chess and other arts besides swordplay. Apart from Shiranui and Yubari, I don't have any ship girls I can talk to in Sakura Empire. Nyan... So I moved out to live. This way, I can also use the wreckage of the Siren as materials."

Akashi, who was being carried forward by the aircraft, had just finished explaining a few words when two patrolling ship girls holding long-handled swords stopped him directly.

"Hey, human, ahead is our Sakura Empire's shrine and the residence of Lady Nagato and her family, don't go over there out of curiosity!"

"Nya? Hinata, Ise, I have something important to tell Mikasa and the others, so I need to take this human with me."

Noticing Akashi flying low, the silver-haired, yellow-eyed Hinata and the red-haired, yellow-eyed Ise looked at each other and shook their cat ears and tails.

"But……"

Hinata and Ise immediately showed an embarrassed look. Even though Akashi's characteristics were a bit special in the Sakura Empire, Hinata and Ise really couldn't let a human go over there.

For the Sakura Empire, which has relatively strict rules, only a small number of high-ranking Sakura Empire ship girls can enter and exit the Sakura Empire Shrine or the mansion where their flagship Nagato-sama lives at will.

"Pfft, it looks like you don't have enough cards, Akashi."

Seeing this, Yaxu couldn't help but tease the green-haired profiteer who was selling things to him all day long.

"There's no other way, meow, Yaxu, use your ability to think of a solution, meow! Or you can go call Akagi over, meow!"

Because of his passion for business and invention, Akashi, who didn't interact much with his Sakura Empire comrades, meowed helplessly and awkwardly.

"Let me take you there. This is what Lord Amagi meant."

Suddenly, a petite ship girl with wing-like ears walked over from the other side of the Suitenki Bridge. Under her slightly curly silver-gray short hair were deep green eyes. Her small body was wearing a dark blue long-sleeved sailor suit with white edges. Under her miniskirt were legs covered with boots and black stockings.

The Sakura Empire's planned destroyer, Kitakaze, was taken by Amagi to assist because of her keen intuition and intelligence.

"Gu! Gu!"

At the same time, on the scabbard of the sword that Beifeng was holding vertically in one hand, a fat pigeon wearing a military uniform and a military cap stood upright and saluted everyone with its wings.

Yaxu narrowed his eyes, and the sense of déjà vu of visiting a zoo became stronger and stronger.

Hearing Beifeng's words, Hinata and Ise stepped back tacitly: "Since it is Lord Amagi's wish, please do as you wish, but please pay attention to that human and don't let him do anything strange."

It seems that the Sakura Empire ship girls here still don't have much affection for humans.

After realizing that he was not trusted, Yaxu shook his head helplessly and stopped caring about it.

"Come with me."

After saying that, Beifeng led Mingshi and Yaxu onto the wooden bridge that spanned the lake.

The graceful lotus flowers were under the bridge. After walking to the center of the bridge, Akashi couldn't help but ask curiously, "How did Amagi know I was coming?"

"She doesn't know, but I felt that bringing that human here could change the current situation, so I came to help that human."

With a hint of pride in his green eyes, Bei Feng said bluntly: "Bei Feng's intuition has always been accurate. Although I don't know how this human can help, it is definitely not wrong!"

A super strong sixth sense?

Slightly surprised, Yaxu then looked at the pigeon standing on the hilt of the sword, saluting him with full energy. He was too lazy to complain about the magical ship girl.

"I really want to study it, meow."

"My intuition tells Beifeng that I cannot let you study Beifeng."

After silently moving away from Akashi, Beifeng turned and looked up at Yaxu and asked, "So, what are you doing here, human?"

"Want some candy? It's filled with chocolate sauce."

After habitually placing a small bag of premium soft candy on the short Bei Feng's head, Ya Xu smiled frankly and said, "Because of the agreement with Akashi, I came to help rescue your trapped flagship."

"What!? Akashi has a solution?"

Relying on his intuition, Bei Feng, who had no doubts at all, opened his mouth slightly in surprise, then raised the pigeon on the hilt and shook it to let it fly away, and said quickly: "Then, hurry up and follow me to meet Lady Mikasa."

The Sakura Empire's shipgirls seem to care about their flagship, Nagato. It's strange, but except for Kaohsiung, Akagi and the others seem to be indifferent to the trapped Nagato.

Thinking of Akagi and the others who never mentioned Nagato in front of him, Yaxu turned to Akashi curiously and asked in a low voice: "What kind of ship girl is Nagato?"

After all, Yaxu had never seen Nagato, so it was reasonable for him to ask.

"Mmmmm? Mmmmm... Nagato is also the size of a small ship girl."

"The size of the little ship girl..."

"It is the battleship flagship that everyone respects."

"Battleship flagship..."

After mumbling back Mingshi's words, Yaxu couldn't help but narrow his eyes and complained, "Why do I feel like she looks a bit like Elizabeth?"

"Meow! Don't compare Nagato with that silly white queen of the royal family, meow. Nagato is the son of God of the Sakura Empire. He shoulders the fate and future of the Sakura Empire, meow. He is very majestic, meow."

Hearing Yaxu compare Shabai, Akashi, as the ship girl of the Sakura Empire, immediately waved her hand in dissatisfaction: "She is the guardian of the Sakura Empire, meow."

"Ah, I feel like these adjectives are very subtle."

Because the various camps are different, Yaxu can't figure out what the status of the so-called Son of God is in the Empire of Sakura Empire.

The queen and the duke of the royal family can still be understood a little, but the Sakura Empire seems to have a faith.

Chapter 235: Meeting with Sakura High-level Officials

The bright yellow tatami was covered with soft cushions, and Yaxu was sitting on it, looking around silently.

Now, he had entered the largest palace in Sakura Empire. The entire building was supported by a red tile roof, white walls and brown copper pillars, and he was sitting inside.

Unlike the White Eagle who was introduced by the enterprise and the Royal Family who was introduced by Shabai, Yaxu was still relatively restrained in Sakura Empire. After all, the one who brought him in now was a profiteer cat who was playing with his own tail.

After waiting for a while, finally, accompanied by the sound of wooden clogs, Mikasa, the current acting flagship of the Sakura Empire, hurried in.

The delicate face was full of feminine determination, the short black chestnut hair had small white horns extending from both sides, and Mikasa, wearing a slightly solemn black general uniform and holding a saber, looked at Akashi and smiled with joy from the bottom of her heart: "Great, you finally have a solution, Akashi?"

"That's too much, meow. Hinata and the others didn't even plan to let him in, meow. Obviously, I was the one who brought him here, meow!"

After seeing Mikasa come in, Akashi immediately waved his sleeves in dissatisfaction, pointed at the innocent-looking Yaxu, and said, "I clearly told him to come over to help me before."

"I'm so sorry, Akashi."

Just as Mikasa was showing an awkward smile, Amagi, who came in with Beifeng, walked in with steady steps, following Mikasa, and said with a gentle smile: "After all, if we give everyone hope in advance before ensuring that Nagato-sama can be rescued, if we fail, it will probably make everyone more sad."

With a clear and elegant voice, Tiancheng shifted his gaze to Yaxu again, looking back at Liubo with a smile on his face: "It must be difficult to get along with Chicheng."

"what?"
