Crossing the azure as a black dragon

If this were a typical slice-of-life Granblue World, she definitely wouldn't leave. Who wouldn't like a gentle and adorable rich woman?

Unfortunately, this isn't the place.

Chapter 84 Bullying the Silly

After eating, Black Dragon and his two companions took a walk and toured the buildings next to the port area, arranged by Avira.

Just as Avira had described to Black Dragon, a large area of ​​the port had become her backyard, with an independent indoor amusement park, gardens planted with various flowers, plants and fruit trees, exhibition halls open to the public and other buildings in various styles from different countries, enough to dazzle anyone.

Black Dragon was fine, but Yuudachi and New Jersey found it all very novel, running around with Ivyra and having a great time.

Black Flying Dragon, following behind the group, looked up at the sky. Winter days are short, and although it was still early, the sun was already preparing to set early. If nothing unexpected happened, they probably wouldn't be able to get back today.

Turning his gaze away, Black Flying Dragon glanced at the cheerful New Jersey ahead, reached for his phone, and dialed a number.

She can't leave Sakura Island for too long at the moment, so she has to leave this big goofball in the care of others.

"Hey, it's me."

The call was connected, and Wales' voice came through, but it was very low. Other voices could be faintly heard, suggesting that they were in a meeting.

"Is it convenient for us to talk? I have something I'd like to ask you for a favor."

Black Flying Dragon stopped under a large tree that provided shade in the summer and lowered its voice as well.

"Wait..." Wales said, then fell silent for a while. The other voices gradually faded away, as if they had left the meeting room.

"The meeting just now was about White Eagle putting pressure on Sakura Empire. They hope that we can work together to put pressure on them and resolve Sakura Empire's problems as soon as possible."

Wales left the venue, and his voice returned to normal.

"Well... Sakura Empire has indeed been dragging on for quite a while. You can handle this as you see fit. If you need any help, you can talk to me."

Black Dragon was somewhat surprised, but still gave his answer.

"That's enough. Have you run into any trouble?"

Wales asked with a light laugh.

"Yes, do you remember White Eagle's disappearance in New Jersey more than ten years ago? I found her."

Black Flying Dragon pondered for a moment, then spoke directly.

"Who? Wait, who did you say?"

Wales paused for a moment upon hearing the name, but quickly responded with a statement as if to confirm it.

"New Jersey, the second ship of the Iowa-class, a big, clumsy guy with an explosive physique."

Black Dragon repeated it.

"Hmm...I understand. What happened to her?"

Wales, having calmed himself down, asked a question over the phone.

"She wants to go back to White Eagle, but I can't leave. Can you help me make arrangements?"

"Black Flying Dragon said."

"That's no problem, but where did you find her?"

Wales felt that the Black Dragon could give her a little surprise every now and then.

“Thirteen years ago, she was locked in a strange space. I happened to find it and brought her back.”

Black Dragon thought for a moment and then said.

According to New Jersey, she discovered the experimental zone during her sortie and got trapped inside. However, it wasn't just New Jersey who went missing, but her entire fleet. Only New Jersey entered the space; the others are probably gone.

"Okay, I understand the situation. I'll go talk to the company and see if I have time to go to Chongying tomorrow."

Wales felt a headache just listening to Black Dragon's words.

"Okay, let me know when you've finalized your plans."

Black Flying Dragon responded and immediately hung up the phone.

"Are you whispering to someone again?"

New Jersey turned back from the front and came to Black Dragon's side.

"I'm arranging your trip back to White Eagle."

Black Dragon put away his phone and looked at New Jersey, who had a delighted expression on his face.

"Huh? You're ignoring me, the person involved, again. I'm going to get angry."

New Jersey's eyes widened immediately, and she glared angrily at Black Dragon.

"I'm discussing this with you right now. Don't you want to go back sooner?"

Black Dragon clicked her tongue in amazement. Although they had only spent less than half a day together, she had already sensed the troublesome nature of New Jersey.

"That's true. So, what was the result?"

New Jersey crossed his arms over his chest, his gaze fixed on Black Dragon, his tone naturally becoming a little more forceful.

"It's still under discussion, but I think even if you go back to White Eagle now, you'll be back soon."

Black Dragon ignored New Jersey's tone and replied with a shrug.

"Huh? Why?"

"Is the Eagle Union going to war with the Sakura Empire? I don't want to fight you; I refuse to fight a civil war."

New Jersey seemed to be imagining something, making an X shape with his hands over his chest.

"...I haven't said anything yet, what are you thinking? Did the White Eagles ever consider fighting the Sakura Empire in your time?"

Black Dragon was taken aback by New Jersey's thought process and complained irritably.

"Ah ha ha."

New Jersey reached up and touched his hair, then turned his head and chuckled dryly.

"..."

The reaction from New Jersey left Black Dragon speechless for a moment; all he could say was that White Eagle was incredibly audacious.

"Haha, that's all in the past, no need to bring it up again. Since it's not war, then it's helping the Sakura Empire fight a civil war?"

After the awkward silence, New Jersey speculated again, since Black Dragon had said that the White Eagles had just finished their civil war.

"It's very close, and it might evolve into that possibility."

Black Dragon glanced at Yuudachi and Avira, who had been drawn back by their conversation, and prepared to end the topic.

"Hmm, I think it's unlikely. After all, you and I are both here, and no one would be foolish enough to fight a battle they can't win."

New Jersey shook its head.

"Who knows?"

Black Dragon strode toward Yuudachi. She felt that what New Jersey said made sense. If the Sirens and the Sakura Empire's traitors discovered that New Jersey was currently within Sakura Empire territory, the Sirens might launch an ambush, but the traitors would definitely panic and might reveal their true colors in their confusion.

However, these are all speculations; she doesn't like taking people on risks.

"Sister Long, what are you talking about?"

Yuudachi ran up to the black dragon and asked curiously.

"We're discussing when we can send her back to White Eagle."

Black Dragon pointed to New Jersey.

"So fast?"

Avira was somewhat surprised.

"Hehe, if you feel reluctant to leave, I can stay a few more days."

New Jersey wore a smug smile.

Yuu-dachi shook her head. She felt that this big goofball was somewhat at odds with her persona, and it would be best to get rid of him as soon as possible.

"Do you need my help to arrange this?"

Avira asked considerately.

"No need to trouble yourself, I've already made arrangements."

Black Flying Dragon politely declined.

"Um, shouldn't you ask for my opinion?"

New Jersey raised its hand to ask.

"Hmm? Miss New Jersey, don't you want to go back to White Eagle?"

Avira was somewhat puzzled.

"Uh."

New Jersey was speechless for a moment.

"Well, it's still early, let's take a walk first."

Black Dragon spoke up, ending the topic he had started.

Chapter 85 It's great that nobody likes it.

After an afternoon stroll and shopping, Avira arranged a room for Black Dragon and the other two to rest in, on the second floor of the office building, right next to her own room.

The so-called office building is a four-story building that integrates various functions such as command center, meeting room, and guest rooms.

After a good night's rest, the next morning, Black Dragon bid farewell to Avira and left the port with New Jersey and Yuudachi.

Are we heading to Donghuang now?

On the sea, New Jersey sailed side by side with Black Dragon. Today, she had taken off her combat uniform and put on a warm winter coat. She seemed to be worried about the surrounding situation and was still somewhat cautious as she moved.

"Yes, but I'm only responsible for getting you to the border. There are still some things I need to take care of here."

Black Dragon casually replied that along the way, her radar detected a great deal of Siren information, most of which were Sirens lurking beneath the surface of the sea. They did not go deep into the ocean, but they used very subtle mimicry technology, making them difficult to detect with ordinary sonar.

Previously in the Sakura Empire port area, Akashi's modified sonar could indeed detect the seabed, but the siren's mimicry was so sophisticated that it required great care to distinguish whether a siren base existed, making manual identification very troublesome.
