Crossing the azure as a black dragon

"Judging from the reactions of Wales and the other ship girls, it seems that ship girls creating ship girls is not a taboo. However, these four proposed ship girls were all created by that researcher in Shinano. Does this mean that ship girls cannot be created in this world?"

After walking for a while, Black Dragon calmed down a bit and recalled the details of the previous conversation, feeling that it was very likely.

If ship girls cannot be built, then from a human perspective, no matter how much research the ship girls do, the final result will belong to them, so it is not considered a taboo?

Once he understood this, Black Dragon's enthusiasm immediately cooled down.

"Oh my, senior Black Dragon, welcome back."

As Black Flying Dragon pondered this, Shoukaku passed by and saw her lost in thought, then went up to greet her.

"Ah."

The black dragon, in a bad mood, gave a curt reply.

Upon hearing this, Shoukaku blinked, took two steps back, and looked at the black dragon from left to right, as if trying to confirm something.

"…What's wrong?"

Black Flying Dragon looked at Soaring Crane. Was he about to pull another trick?

"No~ I'm just trying to confirm whether you're real or fake, senpai~"

Shoukaku gave a subtle smile.

"Thank you for your hard work. By the way, are there no Flying Dragons in this port area?"

Black Dragon crossed his arms and asked another question.

"Yes, but that senior heard about your reputation and felt that he would lose face if he came back and lost a duel with you, so he has been training and fighting at the Northern Alliance. This inexplicable vanity is really unbearable."

Shoukaku spread his little hands, his tone quite displeased.

"Oh, I see."

Black Dragon suddenly realized that dragons seemed to have a rather volatile temper. If a second dragon appeared in the port, they would definitely have to fight when they returned, just like Xu Tianyang's dragon.

Unfortunately, she was still a novice when she sparred with Xu Tianyang's flying dragon. Now she has grown to the top level in this world and is not afraid of any number of flying dragons.

"But, senior, didn't you go to the front lines today? Why are you back so early? Did you run into trouble?"

Shoukaku didn't say much and changed the subject.

"It wasn't too troublesome. I just had an agreement with Yuudachi to come back early today, so I came back as soon as I finished dealing with the Sakura Empire's defenses."

Black Flying Dragon's eyes flashed. She absolutely couldn't let the fact that she had been discovered by the patrol team from the Eastern Empire get out, as it would damage her invincible reputation.

"It's not good to spoil Yuudachi too much."

Shoukaku smiled slightly and said.

"It's alright."

Black Flying Dragon shook his head. Yuudachi had followed her around, so it was only natural for him to take care of her a little.

"You can handle this yourself, senior. But I heard from someone who came back from the Northern Alliance today that another planned ship is about to be launched. Rumor has it that it is an aircraft carrier."

Shoukaku moved closer and whispered to Black Flying Dragon.

"besides?"

Black Dragon was taken aback. In the game, Sakura Empire only had four research ships. Reality was indeed different from the game.

However, the more ships planned, the more people can share the pressure, which is a good thing.

"Yes, the combat power of the planned ship is quite impressive, so the research has been ongoing. The only pity is that Lords Yamato and Musashi are unwilling to appear in the world for some reason. Is it because the time is not right?"

Shoukaku took a step back and said with deep regret.

"Hmm, perhaps it's because they couldn't be born in the form of a solution ship in the present world, but since there were no remnants, they couldn't be inscribed in the Mind Cube?"

Speaking of these two, Black Flying Dragon thought of someone lying in the Pacific Ocean.

The ship that was on board.

"How could that be? If that's the case, wouldn't we have lost those two lords forever?"

Shoukaku was very surprised to hear this, but he did not refute Black Flying Dragon, because Shinano had reappeared in the same sea area where it had sunk.

However, the Yamato and Musashi ships have sunk somewhere, so how can they be revived?

"You never know, maybe we'll find them once we've penetrated the Pacific Ocean."

Black Flying Dragon didn't feel anything. As long as she entered the deep sea now, she could find the sunken ship very soon. It was just that it wouldn't sink and she wouldn't be able to bring it back.

"Makes sense."

Shoukaku calmed down and agreed with Black Flying Dragon's explanation.

"Thank you for telling me about the planned ship. I'm planning to go have a heart-to-heart talk with Nagato. Would you like to come along?"

After the conversation ended, Black Dragon extended an invitation.

As one of the key figures in this port area, Nagato must know whether ship girls can be built. She plans to ask her so that she can give up on the idea.

"I don't need to. See you later."

Shoukaku politely declined Black Dragon's offer and headed towards the training ground.

"An aircraft carrier design?"

Black Dragon muttered to himself, a hint of anticipation creeping into his heart.

The ship girls she had never seen in the game were about to appear in front of her, and as a pervert... no, as a former commander, she was very much looking forward to it.

I wish there were more.

After muttering to herself, Black Flying Dragon turned around and began climbing the stairs. She reached the entrance to the shrine on the third floor and casually glanced back. Noshiro, who was climbing the stairs, appeared in her line of sight.

"Noshiro? Come to think of it, there are so many people I haven't met yet. Have I just not been out and about enough?"

Black Flying Dragon frowned and paused to wait for a while.

"Black Dragon, long time no see. I didn't expect you to have arrived in this port area even before me."

Noshiro also saw the black dragon and quickened her pace to climb to the third floor.

"Did you just get back too?"

Black Dragon was somewhat surprised. Although there were few people in this port area, their fighting strength was not to be underestimated. Even with so few people, they were still able to hold their own against the attacking Sirens.

"Yes, I recently went to Beilian. The port there is very hospitable. I could spar with the ship girls there every day, so I couldn't help but stay for a while longer."

Noro answered immediately.

"hiss."

Black Flying Dragon took a breath. She had heard many people say that the Northern Alliance ship girls were warlike and difficult to deal with, but this was the first time she had heard someone say that they were hospitable. Her gaze towards Noshiro suddenly became more admiring.

"I have something to report to Lord Nagato. Is it on your way?"

Noshiro looked at the black dragon's reaction strangely and raised her hand to ask.

"Perfect timing, I'm going to find Nagato too, let's go together."

Black Flying Dragon nodded and stepped into the torii gate with Noshiro.

Upon entering, the two were greeted by a shrine maiden. Led by the shrine maiden, they arrived at the main council hall, where someone was talking to Nagato.

Black Flying Dragon stood at the door, eavesdropping. The voice sounded like Azure Dragon speaking, but it was very soft and he couldn't quite make out what it was saying.

"Eavesdropping is not a good habit."

Noshiro glanced at the black dragon, then closed her eyes and spoke.

"You can tell?"

Black Flying Dragon turned to look at Noshiro; her ears were naturally perky, and this shouldn't have been noticed.

"..."

Noshiro opened her left eye and looked at the black dragon that was practically glued to the door, unsure how to respond.

Is anyone outside?

Their conversation alerted those inside, and Nagato's voice came through.

"It is I, Black Dragon."

Black Dragon answered generously.

"Hmm, come in, I have something to discuss with you."

Nagato said.

Black Flying Dragon nodded to Noshiro and reached out to open the door.

Chapter Ninety-Seven: Reluctantly

Upon opening the door, Black Flying Dragon immediately saw the long gate seated inside, and Azure Dragon moved to its left. This room was located in the very center of the main hall, where sunlight could not penetrate, and the warm-colored lighting gave the room a sense of heaviness.

"Sorry to bother you."

Black Flying Dragon walked up to Nagato and sat down without ceremony.

"They returned faster than expected. Did everything go smoothly?"

Nagato glanced past Noshiro, who had also taken his seat, and spoke to the Black Flying Dragon.

"Yes, I've dealt with the sirens hiding over there. Plus, the defenses are quite tight, so even if there's internal strife, it shouldn't be too much of a problem."

Black Dragon nodded. Sakura Empire's defenses weren't bad either, but most of their ship girls were out fighting the Sirens, so there were fewer people on guard and they hadn't seen her.

“Well done. Just now, Canglong and I were discussing the visit of the ship girls from the Free Port Area the day after tomorrow. Your task is very important, and I would like to hear your suggestions.”

Nagato praised her and then said...

"Tell me about it?"

Black Dragon shrugs.

"The ship girls from the Free Port area came here to help us reduce the number of Sirens within our territory. You have always lived in the Free Port area, so you are more suitable to talk to them than we are. Therefore, I hope you can convey our goodwill to them."

Nagato said calmly.

"That's no problem. Actually, the ship girls over there have always cared about you. If possible, I also hope that the two ports can have a deeper level of cooperation."
