Amagi's tall chestnut fox ears were stretched tight, showing a warm and angry emotion, while the several red and black hair tails exposed from under Akagi's red silk were silently huddled together.

"It's my freedom to do whatever I want, Amagi...sister."

In a neutral tone, Akagi still maintained his tough attitude, then turned to the puzzled Yaxu and smiled coquettishly: "It just so happens that we can drink some fresh matcha together, dear."

"Akagi? Why don't you want to go to the shrine?"

Faced with this incomprehensible situation, Yaxu skillfully took out a cushion, then sat down cross-legged and asked softly.

"Ah, is there any need to say that? Akagi-senpai and the others always act capriciously, but Taiho is different. As long as it is your request, no matter what it is, Taiho will have no complaints."

After glaring at Akagi and Kaga with disdain, Dafeng happily hugged Yaxu's head, her black hair like flowing clouds gently drooping. Dafeng silently pressed her soft breasts that were about to squeeze out of her tightly wrapped red silk cloth against Yaxu's neck, and quickly said in a flattering way: "You have caused so much trouble to everyone, Akagi-senpai is really too much, right, right, right."

"Hehe, Taihou, do you know why I don't want to go to the shrine and let dear try to save the trapped short-tailed fox?"

Looking at Taiho who still didn't forget to belittle her, Akagi's scarlet eyes flickered: "Have you ever thought about what to do if... dear gets trapped in there?"

"Ugh?"

"You've experienced this, too. When the illusion unfolds, we have to play the role of dear's enemy. If dear loses with those incompetent White Eagles and the Royal Navy..."

Staring at the stiffened Taiho, Akagi said word by word: "He will never come back, and we will have to stay in the illusion, forever playing the defensive enemy, unable to even feel the passage of time day by day."

Instantly, Mikasa, who could no longer suppress her anger, drew her saber and pointed it at Akagi, shouting, "What do you mean by that! Akagi!"

"It's very simple. Compared to saving the Son of God, I can't let my dear take risks."

Ignoring Mikasa's glare, Akagi slowly stood up: "After all, in that kind of illusion where no one is in control, who knows what will happen if we stay in it now."

"Da, Taiho is not afraid. Taiho believes in the commander with all her heart, that's why she and Akagi-senpai don't..."

"What if, dear, your ability is ineffective in there? What if, even if you defeat us, dear, you can't get out?"

After two consecutive questions from Akagi Hell, Dafeng's wine-red eyes, which had been thinking for a while, were soon covered with a layer of mist. Then, she hugged Yaxu nervously and whispered, "Honey, dear, do you really want to go in!?"

"Akagi! You mean, in your heart, compared to us, the Sakura Empire! The glory! The future! You think that this love affair with a human is more important!?"

"Ah, but if my dear is not willing to help! What else can you do?"

The solemn atmosphere suddenly began to intensify, and Yaxu sighed slightly with mixed feelings.

"Here, Matcha."

"Ah, thanks, Kaga."

After Kaga tactically brought hot tea to Yaxu, Amagi, who had been observing silently from the beginning, suddenly raised his lips slightly: "I understand, Akagi, you think it's not worth it to sacrifice the entire Sakura Empire and your lover for Nagato and Mutsu, right?"

"I, Akagi, do not believe in the so-called imaginary gods. The only one I can truly rely on is myself. Son of God, who cares?"

Hearing Akagi's words that sounded like open rebellion, Amagi's purple-blue beast eyes were filled with thoughts, and the battlecruiser outfit behind him began to emerge.

"Akagi, you should also know that no matter what kind of dispute it is, strength always determines the outcome in the end."

Now, Tiancheng, who knew Akagi's temperament, knew that persuasion was meaningless, so there was only one most sensible way now.

Beat Akagi until she is paralyzed, tie her up and take her to the shrine! At this distance, Akagi, as an aircraft carrier, cannot defeat her and Mikasa even with Kaga. Even if both sides may bleed, this is the way to break the stalemate!

boom!

Without the slightest hesitation, with the determination of a Sakura Empire ship girl, Amagi aimed her secondary guns directly at Akagi on the outer corridor and fired a huge, dazzling light bullet. Mikasa, who understood Amagi's intention, silently pulled Yasu behind her and retreated in advance.

however……

Boo~hoo~hoo~

Three dazzling light bullets the size of basketballs flew slowly in the air like turtles and then stopped, and the atmosphere instantly became awkward.

Such a magical scene made Amagi and others stunned at the same time, while Akagi, who did not fight back at all, just smiled.

"Well, Akagi is my wife. I can't bear to see her get hurt or something."

With a helpless tone, Yaxu silently walked to Akagi, then pulled Akagi to the side, and then Tiancheng's stagnant artillery fire continued to shoot out from the outer corridor.

boom! ! !

The loud noise and the bright flames instantly turned the rather elegant courtyard into a mess.

Chapter 238: Counselor - Tiancheng

The purple-blue pupils reflected a huge hole in the distance where several layers of soil had been lifted up. In the original courtyard, not only was there scattered flames, but the sound of high-temperature steam could be heard over a large area.

Seeing this, Tiancheng and others couldn't calm down for a long time. Is this... the ability of that human?

Stagnation and slowdown, working in tandem with each other.

If the slowdown is applied to himself in a special way, Yaxu can achieve the same sense as the bullet time in a certain movie. If combined with stagnation, Yaxu can still stop the high-speed artillery fire around him.

"Ah, then may I ask what plans do you have now, sister Amagi, who is now responsible for the unparalleled strategy of the Sakura Empire?"

Seeing Tiancheng frowning, Akagi's foxy face quickly showed a happy expression, and even her tail started to wag happily: "So, did Sister Tiancheng expect this situation?"

"Your Excellency Yaxu!"

Seeing Yaxu protecting Akagi, Mikasa, who was worried about her friend, immediately said to Yaxu: "Please, persuade Akagi."

Mikasa realized that this situation could only be solved by Yaxu internally, and immediately showed a pleading expression. Amagi also lowered his eyes and sighed softly: "Are you happy like this, Akagi?"

"Okay, calm down, guys."

Comforting Mikasa and the others who were in different moods, Yaxu walked towards Akagi with a smile, and then advised: "Don't worry, Akagi, even if you really can't use your abilities in there, even if something unexpected happens in the illusion and you really can't get out, I have left another backup plan."

Naturally, after serving as the commander of the White Eagle, Royal, and Donghuang camps, Yaxu would certainly not do anything risky without reason, and he had also considered possible unexpected situations.

And Yaxu's backup plan was none other than Ming'an, the man who robbed the small shop Kaneya originally worked for Akashi.

As someone who knows more about Siren technology than Akashi, Yaxu still has great confidence in his abilities.

Although he had no dealings with the Siren version of Akashi, they were in a cooperative relationship. At the critical moment, Ming An also promised to provide appropriate assistance. Of course... it was not a free lunch.

"Back...hand?"

Hearing Yaxu's explanation, Akagi shook her fox ears in confusion, but she also knew that Yaxu would never lie to her.

"What is it, then?"

"Sorry, I can't mention it because of the agreement with that guy."

Slowly stepping forward and gently patting the back of Akagi's white hand, Yaxu smiled and said, "Well, now..."

"Hehe, no, dear."

However, to Yaxu's surprise, Akagi tilted her head slightly and said resolutely with a charming and brilliant smile: "Why would Akagi take the risk of losing your beloved? Even if that is the lowest possibility."

"what?"

Now, Lian Yaxu was at a loss for a moment.

"Your Excellency Yaxu!"

Mikasa deliberately gave Yaxu and Akagi space to negotiate. Seeing that Yaxu seemed to be at a loss, she quickly whispered to encourage him: "Well, then, isn't Akagi your wedding ship!?"

"It's useless, Mikasa-sama."

"what?"

At this time, Kaga, who was quietly tidying up the cup of tea that Yaxu had finished drinking, raised his eyebrows slightly, turned his head to look at Mikasa, and explained with a cold expression: "Yaxu will never force a ship girl to do something she doesn't want to do, and he is an absolute egalitarian...but every time, my sister takes advantage."

"Ah, are you talking about gentleness with Akagi-senpai and the others? It's really hard, but they obviously have such ridiculous power."

Xianghe, who had been acting as a spectator, couldn't help but sigh as he looked at Yaxu, who had no anger at all and only a faint bitter smile.

Well, after all, for Yaxu who has already had her feet on multiple boats, even if most of the ship girls don't care about these things, Yaxu still feels that he has done more things that he feels sorry for.

"In that case, what conditions do you want Akagi to help me with?"

"Ah, dear, although this proposal is very tempting, but if the person is gone, all the promises are meaningless, right?"

With a confident smile on his face, Akagi sat down and continued to grind the matcha with ease. It seemed that he had made up his mind to terminate this plan.

has it ended?

Mikasa lowered her head dejectedly as her body swayed slightly. After all, she had to rely on Yaxu for help, and she couldn't bring herself to blame him. Her guilt towards her friend only grew stronger.

"Cough cough..."

At this moment, two pitiful coughs from Tiancheng broke the silent atmosphere again.

"Amagi, are you okay!?"

Mikasa, knowing that Amagi sometimes was unwell, immediately asked with concern.

"It's alright. So, Akagi, how about listening to my last few words?"

"Oh?"

Akagi, who was grinding tea by himself, raised his colorful phoenix eyes and looked towards Tiancheng, but then the original confident and arrogant attitude of Akagi disappeared.

Because at this moment, Tiancheng's eyes were smiling, and his every frown and smile revealed an inexplicable confidence. Akagi knew this expression very well, as it usually meant that Tiancheng had a perfect strategy.

Impossible! If she doesn't want to, as long as my dear is here, it will be useless even if Amagi calls the entire Sakura Empire!

"Akagi, if you don't go to the shrine, then of course the plan will have to be cancelled."

After briefly stating the situation, Amagi walked towards Akagi with graceful steps.

In their intersecting eyes, Tiancheng's eyebrows were full of spring, her cherry lips were red without any makeup, and with a delicate and beautiful luster, she leaned close to Akagi's ear and said: "You should understand, Akagi, if things don't go to my liking, then under the circumstances of being exhausted, I will have to use some special methods to compete with you, Akagi."

"And this is neither a military strategy nor a tactic, but... a competition in the so-called female sense."

"After all, the control of things is in the hands of someone, right? And if Nagato-sama is not around, I would probably feel lonely~"

His scarlet pupils kept dilating, and as he listened to the whispers beside his ears, Akagi's heart gradually tightened. However, Tiancheng was calm and glanced at Yaxu meaningfully in front of Akagi.

"Kaga! Let's go!"

"elder sister?"

Akagi, who understood Amagi's deep meaning, bit his lower lip, waved his red and black sleeves, and spoke sternly, then left the room with the surprised Kaga like a defeated fox.

Seeing Akagi finally compromise, Mikasa smiled in surprise and said, "Amagi? How did you do it? You really deserve to be Akagi's eldest sister!"

What did she say to Akagi?

Similarly, Yaxu also showed a confused expression. After all, even he couldn't think of any reason for Akagi to compromise.

Tiancheng did not rush to explain to Mikasa, but suddenly looked at Yaxu and asked a strange question: "Excuse me, Mr. Yaxu, which one do you prefer, the enchanting bright red red spider lily or the snow-white curtain-shaped red spider lily?"

"Ah? Higanbana? I... don't have any preference."

"The gorgeous red spider lily is also called Lycoris radiata, which blooms in hell, but the pure white and delicate spider lily is called Mandragora, which guides the dead to heaven."

"In that case, white is better."

Although he had no idea why Tiancheng asked these questions, Yaxu still answered with a smile as if he was chatting casually.

"Haha, Lord Yaxu is really understanding."

"what?"

"Although the red flowers are in hell, they can make people miss their loved ones, while the white flowers will make people miss death."

"In that case, the red spider lily is also pretty good."

Yaxu, who was being asked by Tiancheng, answered casually, and Tiancheng suddenly covered his mouth with his hands, with a smile on his charming face: "See, Lord Yaxu is very understanding."

"Amagi, what on earth are you talking about!?"

Seeing Amagi's puzzling look, the straightforward Mikasa really couldn't understand.

"Mr. Yaxu, although he has no preference for any particular flower, as long as a certain flower's merits are slightly revealed, Mr. Yaxu will immediately develop a liking for it."

"so?"

"It's time to go, everyone."

With a gentle and charming look on his face, Tiancheng smiled silently and walked out of the room first with an umbrella.

Is Tiancheng...testing my character?

Touching the back of his head for a while, Yaxu could only think of this level.

Chapter 239 The illusion unfolds!

Surrounding the Shigeki Shrine, the Shigeki ship girls lined up in an orderly manner on the approach to the shrine. In fact, except for the troublemaker like Akagi, the other Shigeki ship girls all obeyed orders obediently, and of course they also wanted to help Nagato, the flagship, as soon as possible.

"Hehe~ Looks like a certain little fox's plan has failed. What a pity."

Atago, who was waiting outside the shrine, noticed the unwilling expression on Akagi's face when he arrived with Kaga, and couldn't help but laugh and approached with his hands behind his back: "Tsk tsk, what a pity."
