He is the commander and the admiral.

"This kind of large-scale operation really makes people a little nervous."

While he was thinking about this, the sound of a plane flying was heard in the sky outside. Roger thought that Xiao Beifang was making the noise outside, but when he did, Lafite, who was lying on the sofa in the office, suddenly stood up from the sofa.

"Commander! Enemy attack!"

"what?!"

Hearing the word "enemy attack", Roger was stunned for a moment, but as the vibrations caused by the bombing outside became louder and louder, Roger reacted and hurried to the window to look at the situation outside. He could clearly see the markings of the Sakura Empire on the bombers flying in the sky, and the I-class destroyers on the sea had already exchanged fire with the Sakura Empire's mass-produced ships.

"The Sakura Empire... did they come here because of what happened before? But how did they get here? There's no way such an action would go unnoticed, not to mention that the White Eagles are already preparing to go to war with them, so why would they come here to attack me?"

Too many doubts flashed through Roger's mind, but the current situation made it impossible for him to think so much. Laffey had already run out and was ready to deal with the Sakura Empire's ship girls who had not yet appeared.

"We must contact the ship girls from other factions immediately!"

After Roger turned on the communication terminal, he found that the signal could not connect to anyone at all. This situation undoubtedly made his face even uglier.

"Chirp!"

However, the internal communication was not affected. Manjiu who contacted us said that the model in the port area was interfered with and there was no way to contact other people.

"Is it true that I'm being targeted? But after all, I only showed up once. Is it necessary for them to target me like this?"

Roger felt incredible that his opponent had targeted him so quickly and even took such action against him. Or was it that the Sakura Empire had failed in the last battle and was holding a grudge against him?

"But think about it, after all, I am really a soft persimmon now, the one that is easy to pick on."

While Roger was sighing, in the sea far away from the port area, Akagi, who was sitting on a mass-produced ship, was looking at the I-class destroyers fighting and frowned slightly.

"This doesn't look like Azur Lane's technology at all. Ships like this that are full of weaponry are also different from the Siren's technology."

Before seeing these, Akagi originally thought that the I-class destroyers controlled by Roger were most likely a type of Siren technology. After all, apart from Siren technology, she couldn't think of anything special in Azur Lane.

"Does this mean that this commander possesses some new technology?"

Akagi observed the brutal force of the I-class destroyers during the battle, and she felt that this style was very good, or in other words, it was enough for her to be useful and powerful.

"Ok?"

Akagi looked at the sky that was suddenly covered with dark clouds, and at the same time, black planes appeared and began to attack their side.

Xiao Beifang's petite figure stood on the sea. Her eyes were glowing red and her expression became rarely angry. At the same time, a red aura could be seen around her and on the ship.

"Get back!"

As for the enemies invading here, Xiao Beifang could not accept that these guys would bring any harm to his favorite and most important port area and Roger.

Looking at the bombers dropping bombs continuously in the sky and destroying the port area that he once loved, Xiao Beifang became more and more angry.

Whether it was the bombardment from the ship or the deep-sea ship battle, they launched a fierce attack on the enemy that appeared on the sea surface.

"It seems like he is a really special child."

Akagi understood the situation of the 5th Carrier Battle at that time. At this moment, Xiao Beifang alone had the strength to launch an astonishing firepower. Coupled with the unknown ships in this sea area and the other ship girls, it was indeed difficult for them to deal with it.

Chapter 20 A terrifying situation

When Lafite walked out to the port, a flash of a knife passed by, but it didn't seem to be intended to hurt Lafite, so it was easily avoided.

"Ayanami..."

When Rafi saw the person blocking his way, his expression became complicated.

"It's Ayanami who said that we can't let Lafite go over now."

Ayanami retracted her ship-mounted sword and said to Raffi, "Ayanami doesn't want to fight Raffi."

Before Sakura Empire broke away from Azur Lane, the two sides could be said to be very good friends, and they were very happy to get along with Javelin and Z23. However, the current situation has changed the positions of both sides, and now it feels very uncomfortable when they are facing each other and blocking each other.

"No, Rafi must protect the commander. We cannot allow you to continue destroying the commander's port area, even if it's Ayanami."

Raffi, who was in the same situation as Ayanami, did not want to fight with her, but she understood that the target of the Sakura Empire this time was most likely her commander. If Roger fell into the hands of the Sakura Empire, his life would not be guaranteed. After all, the other party actually came here specifically to attack, which meant that Roger had been targeted, and in serious cases, he could even be regarded as a thorn in their side.

In this situation, even facing Ayanami's obstruction, Laffi would not show mercy.

Ayanami noticed Rafi's determined gaze. In this situation, they could understand each other's meaning without saying anything. In response, Ayanami clenched the blade in her hands with both hands.

"It seems like we can't get through this at all, right?"

On the other side of the battlefield, two ship girls with black hair and wearing white uniforms were facing the I-class destroyers that were constantly rushing towards them. They had no way of moving forward and were about to launch an attack on the most difficult Little North on the battlefield.

After Atago sank the I-class destroyer that rushed in front of her again, she looked worried when she saw a new, identical I-class destroyer emerging from the sea.

"A child like this is really a disobedient bad kid. If we catch such a bad kid, we must punish him severely."

"This situation is indeed very abnormal. Logically, we have destroyed a lot of these ships, but they are not decreasing but increasing. This means that they can be mass-produced quickly. But where is the source? Submarine forces, have you found anything in the sea?"

Kaohsiung contacted the submarine force to inquire about the situation, hoping to discover something.

"Yes, the sea here is very strange. It feels like there is some uncomfortable energy in this sea. It makes me feel very uncomfortable. And do you know what I saw? Those ugly-looking ships were born out of thin air from the destroyed mass-produced ships!"

"Are you sure?"

Kaohsiung frowned immediately. This situation was no joke. The ships that appeared out of thin air were too unbelievable, right?

"I'm very sure, there was a strange mass of something, and then those guys came out from it, eh!? Wait, they found me! Ua ...

The communication was interrupted here. As for the situation, Kaohsiung could only pray that the other party would cheer up. After all, they had no way to deal with the situation in the sea.

"So our mass-produced ships are actually helping the other side? This is really unexpected. Even the Siren don't have this kind of technology, right? And they were born from the wreckage, making it seem like a vengeful undead."

"Let the mass-production ships evacuate. Otherwise, if we continue, we will be surrounded sooner or later."

Kaohsiung made a decision immediately. She originally thought that Akagi was too serious in this operation and actually needed to mobilize such a force to deal with a rookie commander. But now it seems that she underestimated the opponent. The power possessed by the opponent was far stronger than she expected.

"Ara~ Are you planning to carry out a direct decapitation operation?"

Atago saw Kaohsiung's plan and wanted to directly break through the obstruction of these ships and capture the protected Xiaobei. When this most difficult guy in this offensive was captured, the operation would be considered a success.

Kaohsiung answered this question with practical actions and started to make a direct breakthrough.

"Evil! Now! Kill!"

"It seems that we have to show some real skills in this case."

Seeing this, Atago on the side had no choice but to follow suit. The actions of the two also caught the attention of Xiao Beifang. Looking at the two people who broke through the I-level destroyer and rushed towards him, Xiao Beifang seemed to be seeing a scene in the past.

But this time, she was more reluctant to lose than in the past, not to mention that she had reasons why she absolutely could not lose.

"Sink it!!"

The artillery fire was directed towards the positions of Kaohsiung and Atago, but the two figures immediately separated to the left and right, causing Xiao Beifang's artillery fire to miss the target.

"It's impossible to hit us with a bombardment like this, little cutie."

When Atago said this, she fired a barrage of artillery towards Xiao Beifang's position. This type of barrage of artillery stunned Xiao Beifang who saw it for the first time, but Black Puff beside her immediately came to her rescue. As the barrage of artillery hit the target, it was only after seeing the actual effect that Atago realized that the result was somewhat different from what she had imagined.

There were no obvious injuries on Xiao Beifang's body, but Black Puff was unable to avoid being destroyed.

"Little North! Don't just stand there!"

Roger looked at Xiao Beifang standing there motionless and suddenly became anxious. Others had sent messages to him, so why did he stand there motionless? He was just going to get beaten!

Hearing Roger's words, Xiao Beifang subconsciously took a step with her short legs, trying to distance herself from Kaohsiung Atago, but several powerful torpedoes had already rushed to her feet.

"Little North!!"

Amid Roger's heart-wrenching screams, the water column from the exploding torpedo enveloped Xiao Beifang entirely. This scene made Roger's eyes dim. He knew very well what the consequences of being hit by several torpedoes would be. It was precisely because of this that he felt particularly desperate.

"It's all... it's all my fault... I'm to blame for all this..."

Roger believed that it was all his fault for causing the current situation and allowing Xiao Beifang to suffer such a consequence. He also felt extremely guilty for causing Xiao Beifang to suffer such a consequence.

"Admiral! Are you calling North?"

When the world seemed to have lost its color, a voice that sounded like hope appeared, causing Roger to look up and see Xiao Beifang reappearing in his sight on the screen.

Chapter 21 The End of the Battle

"Little...Little North!? Are you okay?"

Roger looked at Xiao Beifang with an expression of great astonishment, seeing that he was safe and sound and standing on the sea. This situation made him feel incredible, but at the same time, he felt more happy and fortunate.

"What's going on?"

Atago and Takao were both puzzled. If she was directly hit by a torpedo, even if she didn't sink directly, she would at least be seriously damaged, right? But her current situation was completely different from what they imagined.

"Did they use some special method to dodge it, or was it defended against?"

Atago thought of this possibility. After all, this situation is not impossible. When these people become ship girls, they will gain some unique powers, and this power will make them more powerful in battle. However, many of them also have the power to assist themselves and others and avoid harm.

Atago attributed Xiaobei's situation to this result.

"But how many times can you live in peace?"

Although this power has a good effect, it cannot be used all the time. Next time, Atago doesn't believe that Xiao Beifang will be able to stand there intact.

"How can you guys continue doing something like that?!"

Amid Roger's angry voice, all the I-class destroyers gathered around Atago and Takao and formed an encirclement. The time spent in the previous battle had completely blocked the route they had originally rushed in. It was almost impossible for them to rush out again like they did just now.

After the thrilling incident just now, Roger didn't dare to be careless at all, fearing that something dangerous like that would happen again. Although he didn't know how Xiao Beifang avoided the harm, Roger didn't dare let such a thing happen again.

"Hehehe~ Big sister, I don't like children who are anxious like this."

Although she was surrounded, there was no sign of nervousness on Atago's face. Instead, she remained calm and spoke jokingly, which made Roger very angry.

"In this situation, are you still in the mood to laugh?"

"Is this the situation we are in now? Do you think we have no other options and can only surrender? That's really a naive idea."

Atago's answer made Roger feel that this was the situation, but before he could finish his words, Roger heard Manju's report, and his expression became even more angry.

"You...you actually cooperated with the Siren!"

A fleet of Siren suddenly appeared near the port area. The appearance of a fleet of Siren at this time was a very abnormal thing no matter how you looked at it, so Roger attributed the problem to the Sakura Empire without hesitation.

"That's not the case. It doesn't seem to be a particularly difficult thing to lure a group of Siren fleets over. At first, I thought this was a little too cautious, but now it seems that Akagi's idea is right. If not, if we come with fewer people, we may just die."

Roger gritted his teeth when he heard this. The current situation made it much more difficult to completely fight against the Siren fleet and the Sakura Empire's fleet. Now, the only ship girl who could fight in the port, Laffey, was held back. Relying on Xiao Beifang and her I-class destroyers, it was currently very difficult to take down this group of people from the Sakura Empire, so the situation could be considered a stalemate.

While they were hesitating, the bombers and torpedo planes flying in the sky blew a hole in the encirclement of Atago and Takao, allowing the two to escape from the encirclement immediately. Roger wanted to stop them, but with the appearance of the Siren fleet, he had to choose to shift the target of confrontation and could only watch Atago and Takao evacuate safely.

"It's really a complete failure... If it weren't for Xiao Beifang, even this port area would have been destroyed this time."

Roger leaned back in his chair. This battle made him feel really uncomfortable, but now it was a good result for him. After all, if the fight continued, he really didn't know what the situation would become.

With the withdrawal of the Sakura Empire, Lafite also broke free from Ayanami's obstruction and appeared on the sea to fight against the Siren fleet that came here together with Xiao Beifang. In the final battle, after the Siren fleet was annihilated, this battle was completely over.

Roger came to the port to greet them. After seeing Laffite and Xiao Beifang coming back, he couldn't wait to go over and check Xiao Beifang's body to make sure there was really no problem.

"Are you really not hurt anywhere, Little North?"

"Yeah! Except it hurts a little."

Although the torpedo did not cause any harm to her, the power of the explosion still made Xiao Beifang feel a little painful.

"It's good that nothing happened. It's a blessing that everyone is fine this time."

As for the port area that was damaged a lot, everything is still within the tolerable range. With the help of the barbarians, it can be completely repaired.

"Commander! Are you all right?"

At this time, a communication connection was connected to Roger. Looking at the Enterprise image that appeared, the other party seemed to be rushing towards him at a very fast speed. Obviously, the White Eagles must have discovered something, so they rushed over. No wonder the Sakura Empire retreated so decisively just now.

"It's okay. We've finished here. There's no need to be nervous."

"Is it over already..."

Enterprise heaved a sigh of relief after hearing this, and Roger also noticed the tiredness between her brows. It seemed that she had just experienced a battle before rushing here.

"How's your situation? I think everything is fine, right?"

"Well, we were planning to start the operation, but when we tried to contact you, we couldn't get through at all. We were worried that you might have encountered problems, so we planned to go over and check on you, but the Siren suddenly took action and delayed us. It looks like this is an operation targeting you."

"The Sirens again? It's obviously impossible for the Sakura Empire to say that they have nothing to do with the Sirens."

Roger found it hard to accept the actions of the Sakura Empire. Are they really not worried about any negative consequences of cooperating with such a hostile existence?

Chapter 22 Another Deep Sea Ship

"We have already discovered that there is some contact between the Sakura Empire and the Sirens, so this situation is not surprising, Commander."
