Transmigrated into Azur Lane

Recalling everything he experienced in the obelisk, Lin Dong felt as if he were in a dream.

With the signing of the spiritual contract known as the "Indefinite Alliance Agreement," the god-like king actually "transferred" all of his ship girls to Lin Dong's name. This caused Lin Dong, who was originally just a small warship consciousness clone, to suddenly surpass the main body of the warship consciousness in strength. Then, before the Siren king passed away, he helped Lin Dong completely devour the remaining consciousness. This inexplicable drama, like falling off a cliff and gaining divine power, truly allowed Lin Dong to experience the treatment that a protagonist should receive.

Meanwhile, the ship girls surrounding the commander were stunned as they listened to his melodramatic story.

"And what about this egg?"

Yuudachi, whose attention was focused on the egg in the commander's hand, asked another question.

"This egg... will be the next Siren King, but it will be a very, very long time before it hatches."

After Lin Dong finished speaking, he couldn't help but touch the giant egg in his arms. But as he touched it, he couldn't help but wonder why there was a sticky thing on the egg.

"Oh dear!"

Upon hearing the words "Siren King," Yuudachi immediately raised his fist, ready to smash the Sirens with a single punch. He usually bullies little kids, but this time he's even targeting unborn babies. It has to be said that this mad dog of Solomon's is getting worse and worse.

"Eh eh eh!"

Yuudachi's actions startled Lin Dong, who took several steps back. "Damn it! If anything happens to this egg, according to the so-called spiritual contract I signed with the Sirens, I'll be buried with them!"

Upon learning that she had almost killed the commander with her own hands, Yuudachi reluctantly withdrew her fists under the angry glares of the ship girls, her face bearing a trace of inexplicable regret, as if she regretted not being able to kill the final boss of the Sirens with her own hands.

Yuudachi's eyes darted around, and he turned his attention to the expressionless Sirens who looked like terracotta warriors.

"Commander, that contract shouldn't include them, right?"

The images of the Sirens killing countless ship girls were still vivid in Yuudachi's mind, and she, being vengeful, had no intention of letting these murderers off the hook.

"Sigh... forget it."

Holding the giant egg, Lin Dong looked at the group of special-type Siren ship girls and couldn't help but sigh.

It can be said that the reason why they were able to pick up a huge pie out of nowhere is largely due to them. As former members of the Siren Kingdom, apart from having slightly stronger mental strength, their combat power was no match for the ship girls. In order to deal with the occasional provocation of ship girls by the warship's consciousness, they spontaneously and forcibly merged themselves with the Mind Cube, turning into the inhuman and ghostly beings they are now. Because they no longer had the support of so-called consciousness, they also paid the price of self-awareness in exchange for gaining the benefit of not being manipulated by the warship's consciousness. It can be said that they made a huge sacrifice.

This is also why the king ultimately paid the price with his life to suddenly take action. Even someone as powerful as him could not bear to see his people die. As for why he paid such a huge price and placed all his hopes on Lin Dong, Lin Dong could only attribute it to the guilt he felt over the destruction of the kingdom.

What are your plans for the next step?

Just then, Nelson, who rarely had a smile on his face, spoke up and asked.

Lin Dong answered without hesitation.

"Then naturally we should maintain the status quo and slaughter all the humans at sea."

What Lin Dong didn't know was that the reason the Sirens would place all their bets on him was also closely related to his cruelty towards the humans of this other world...

Chapter 426 Final Chapter 1-2 (Two chapters combined)

Pacific Ocean, Siren Headquarters

As the matter came to an end, the Sirens' ship girls, after the king's passing, stood motionless on the sea like robots that had lost their power source, looking particularly eerie.

The ship girls summoned by the warship's consciousness, as their self-awareness returned, curiously looked around at their unfamiliar surroundings. From the moment they were built, they had been manipulated by the Sirens like puppets, and their only memories were of that monotonous and cold life. At this moment, they were like newborn babies, full of curiosity about this world.

Under the soothing words of this newly emerged "battleship consciousness," and knowing that the Sirens had already been defeated, they abandoned their intention to retaliate. They first went to the shore and clasped their hands together, seemingly praying for their comrades who had perished in the battle. However, having been weathered by the memories of World War II, they recovered very quickly. Before long, they gathered around the battleship consciousness, curiously examining him.

Lin Dong was still somewhat dazed by the inexplicable end of the great battle. Clearly, the Sirens had not realized that the ship's consciousness was hidden so deeply. For ninety years, it had been engaging in small-scale battles, seemingly preparing for this moment. No one knew that it possessed the power to forcibly restore the self-awareness of such a large number of ship girls.

The king's decision to place all his bets on Lin Dong at the last moment was likely due to being somewhat frightened by the power of the warship's consciousness. This is why he so generously helped Lin Dong become a true warship consciousness and sign the spiritual contract of eternal ally.

Did the Sirens suffer a loss? Thinking this through, Lin Dong no longer believed it. Putting aside all other factors, the most important one was that His offspring, due to congenital deficiencies, took much longer to hatch than He had originally anticipated. Having witnessed the king's memories, Lin Dong couldn't help but maliciously speculate that even without this incident, if He had lived another ten or twenty years, the egg might still not have hatched. And then, the Sirens would face a true catastrophe of extinction...

The reason why the warship's consciousness, which is not omniscient and omnipotent, chose to act at this time, Lin Dong guessed, was probably because it feared the timely birth of its offspring. Consider how it was suppressed like a tiny insect when facing a dying king; imagine how it fared against the Siren king at his peak...

Therefore, due to the lack of information, the outcome of the power struggle between the two sides was far beyond each other's expectations, which made Lin Dong, this little bug, the biggest beneficiary for no reason.

Thinking of this, Lin Dong couldn't help but feel great. He then chuckled and began to experience the sensations brought by the consciousness of the warship. With a thought, millions of thoughts appeared in his mind. He could clearly feel that these thoughts were the ship girls living in another world, and he could send his message to any of them at any time if he wanted... well, that's all.

Upon discovering this, Lin Dong blushed. In his previous conspiracy-filled imagination, he had assumed that this "wicked" warship consciousness could control ship girls or something. Only now did he realize that he had been overthinking it all.

Compared to the "master-servant relationship" between the pilots and the ship girls, the relationship between the ship's consciousness and the ship girls is more like that of "father and daughter." After all, the ship girls are beings born from consciousness, so the relationship between the two will seem closer from the beginning, but that's all.

Lin Dong had no right to order them to do anything. The reason they obeyed the call of the original consciousness to come and fight the Sirens was mostly because the Sirens had exploited them in the past. After all, even if that king was their "commander", he would still die. You should know that even the commander known as "Fen Ti" would not do such heinous and cruel things to his ship girls.

Compared to the selfish idea of ​​the warship's consciousness being weakened by the appearance of numerous ship girls, Lin Dong did not inherit its will. "It's just a more convenient way of communication, right? Why are you so worried?!" Thinking of this, Lin Dong couldn't help but feel sorry for the warship's consciousness that he had devoured.

Lin Dong rolled his eyes, then closed them again, sensing the privileges of a suitable candidate. As he advanced to the consciousness of the warship, his mysterious so-called "mental power" also surged, barely reaching the qualification of a suitable candidate. He no longer needed to use the back door-like sneaky behavior given by the identity of the warship consciousness clone to communicate with the Mind Cube, as before.

Of course, he can't be compared to that Siren King, after all, the latter comes from some kind of fantasy world...

Just as he closed his eyes and the thought arose, before the dense array of control commands could even make his scalp tingle, he felt someone hug his waist.

"commander."

"What's wrong, you crybaby?"

Opening his eyes, Lin Dong became somewhat wary of Spence, who never shows up without a reason.

Spence, his chin resting on the commander's stomach, blinked his big eyes and asked expectantly.

"If you become a warship consciousness, can you live a very long time?"

"Probably."

Realizing he had misunderstood the little girl, Lin Dong reached out and ruffled her hair. As for her question, Lin Dong, who wasn't a fortune teller, couldn't answer it at this point. After all, no one could answer his own question about possessing a human body and becoming a different kind of consciousness...

May you live as long as the heavens.

Suddenly, a cold voice abruptly interrupted their conversation.

A girl, glaring angrily at those around her, appeared before Lin Dong. Compared to her calm demeanor, the wounds covering her body made her look incredibly disheveled.

Lin Dong recognized the girl instantly, even though he had never met her before.

"Calybdis"

Lin Dong had seen this girl many times in the king's memories. As the king's second sister, she had also forcibly merged with the Mind Cube to give an explanation to her people. However, she had the same ancestral blood as the king, so her strength was extremely terrifying, which was why she still retained her self-awareness.

Her disheveled appearance at this moment clearly indicates that she was tricked by the warship's consciousness while leading her army of ship girls on an expedition to Asia. Her ability to escape alive speaks volumes about her strength.

"He told me to give this to you..."

Seeing that the girl had no intention of communicating with him, Lin Dong didn't delay any longer. He then handed the giant egg in his hand to her, fulfilling the king's dying wish...

...

Sakura Empire, Yokosuka Naval Base, Marshal's Office

"Marshal! A large Siren fleet has appeared in the Sakura Empire waters!"

Sweating profusely, Ruyue anxiously reported the unexpected situation.

"Has it finally arrived...?"

Fleet Admiral Mikasa, who was sketching with a pen in hand, paused involuntarily. Shortly after the Maritime Bureau lost contact, the battleship's consciousness also disappeared, filling her with unease. The news of the Sirens' sudden attack further confirmed her suspicions; she feared the battleship's consciousness had perished...

"Immediately notify the entire army, as well as the leaders of other forces, to prepare for battle!"

...

Cherry Blossom Sea

Gazing at the Siren army, its banners and insignia gleaming on the horizon, Mikasa, seated in the command center of the Allied flagship, her face ashen. Aside from the countless powerful auras she could sense, the sheer number of enemy troops was utterly despairing...

"Starting a war so suddenly would be like throwing an egg against a rock. We should avoid their sharp edge, return to the island to make a detailed battle plan, and then slowly devise a strategy."

Looking at the eager expressions on the conference table—"Even if I can't beat them, I'll still take a bite"—Cao Zhengping wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and tried to persuade them.

As soon as he made his suggestion, the people from the human camp echoed it one by one. After all, they knew that sending an outsider here was a sure way to lose the battle, given the sheer number of people involved.

"Marshal! A warship bearing the insignia of a flagship is breaking away from the enemy's main force and heading towards our direction at high speed."

Sitting at the command post (I'm so busy!), Ruyue reports on the information coming from the front lines.

"Tch... Raise the Z flag! Flagship, move out alone! Let's go meet her!"

Feeling slighted, Mikasa laughed angrily as she gave orders. Despite her long-standing high position, she had been deeply influenced by the samurai code of "a samurai can be killed but not humiliated." She admitted she couldn't beat Mikasa, but she shouldn't push her luck!

However, the marshal regained a sliver of reason and then spoke.

"Make sure the First Carrier Division is ready to take over command."

She was clearly prepared to die in battle, which nearly made the human officers at the conference table wet their pants. This isn't the Middle Ages, is this how you fight a war? On the contrary, the ship girls looked determined and clearly agreed with Mikasa's choice.

Mikasa, with her rather low emotional intelligence, didn't even bother to ask if anyone wanted to disembark. After all, in her eyes, dying in battle was a soldier's duty—what was there to be afraid of? And so, Mikasa, prepared to drag everyone on board to their deaths, stood on the bridge of the Allied flagship, her ship's rigging in full display, clutching the Z-sign symbolizing a fight to the death, and charged towards the oncoming Sirens...

Soon, the two ships met.

"Wh...what?"

A man standing on the bridge was holding a megaphone-like device. He first made a series of "hello, hello, hello" sounds to test the sound, and then shouted at the top of his lungs.

"On behalf of Lord Siren, I command you all! Surrender immediately! The benefits will be plentiful!"

"Fool!"

As soon as Mikasa saw the idiot Lin Dong, she immediately realized that something was wrong with him. How did this guy, who had been missing for several days, suddenly become a battleship consciousness?

Seeing Mikasa's angry expression, Lin Dong put away his already satisfied mischievousness and immediately bowed and apologized, clearly knowing how worried the woman in front of him was about his departure without saying goodbye these past few days.

At this moment, the ship girls on the Allied flagship also noticed this anomaly. Then, instead of the expected battle, the two warships boarded each other, and the Grand Marshal kissed the ship's consciousness in public, making the scene quite awkward.

However, they soon realized that it was probably a misunderstanding, because the "Siren army" that followed the "Siren" flagship was no longer the lifeless creatures it usually was. Instead, they were laughing and joking around the human aircraft carrier, pointing and chattering away like little kids. Have you ever seen such cute sirens?

The humans, on the other hand, were quite frightened. Few people present did not recognize the famous Lin Dong. Seeing that he had already surrendered to the Sirens and was now getting along well with the Allied Marshal, it was clear that the Sakura Empire had also betrayed the human camp.

Is there any hope for humanity left? This helpless thought arose unanimously among the officers present...

...

With the resolution of this enormous misunderstanding, the two armies that had been locked in a standoff merged into one and marched back to the Sakura Empire's homeland.

Sakura Empire, Yokosuka Naval Base, Marshal's Office

"So... the Sirens have been defeated, but not destroyed, and have even reached an agreement with you?"

Mikasa was completely bewildered by Lin Dong's fantastical story, but the hundreds of thousands of ship girls who had regained their self-awareness could not be faked.

"Ah."

Seeing the slightly displeased look on Mikasa's face, Lin Dong did not dare to lower his guard.

"Then what happened when you drove away the human army?"

Mikasa recalled how Lin Dong, after returning to Sakura Empire, couldn't wait to use force to threaten and drive away the human fleet.
