Crossing the azure as a black dragon

Black Dragon's eyes flickered slightly as she glanced at the spot where the arrogant Sirens had turned to ash. She had only sensed the presence of this one Sirens when she was strolling in Sakura Empire, and she had only been gone for a few minutes. How did another one suddenly appear?

"I understand. Is Shinano alright?"

Composing himself, Black Flying Dragon asked.

"Shinano has retreated, but that force has been completely wiped out. According to Shinano's statement, it was a siren that used electricity. You must be careful."

Amagi nodded and continued his report.

"Regarding this siren, actually..."

Black Flying Dragon hesitated for a moment before explaining the situation to Tiancheng.

After he finished speaking, there was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone. Taking advantage of this time, the black dragon slipped into the tunnel. To the left was the city where they had encountered the Sirens.

However, as soon as she stepped out of the tunnel, she realized something was wrong. There was a fire somewhere, and it was quite widespread, with plumes of black smoke visible to everyone in the city.

"..."

Black Flying Dragon silently took two steps, then took a running start and jumped, performing a double jump in mid-air to reach the fire scene.

It was a 23-story building, with the top 10 floors on fire. Black smoke almost completely covered the top floors, and a large amount of building materials fell to the ground. The entire building was noticeably tilted.

Black Flying Dragon pursed his lips. The fire was burning from top to bottom, and large sections of building materials on the top five floors in a straight line had disappeared. It was obvious that this was not a normal fire.

"Did the Sirens launch an attack after I left?"

Black Dragon lowered her voice. Her detection function had failed again. Could the Sirens really evolve that fast?

“I just checked, and within minutes of you leaving Sakura Empire, a total of 395 locations were attacked simultaneously, and no one was left alive. Tokyo was the most severely affected, with half of the city near government buildings being destroyed.”

Amagi's voice came through the phone, her tone very heavy. Although she had decided to purge the Sakura Empire's top brass, she found it difficult to remain calm in the face of such a massive number of casualties.

What's even more frightening is that this happened on Sakura Empire's homeland before the Sirens' fleet even arrived; it's hard to imagine what will happen next.

"I understand. Where is Shinano? I'll go see her."

Black Flying Dragon took a breath and asked.

"Tokyo."

Amagi provided the answer.

"...Yes, you should also be careful over there, and have the little fox protect the port area."

After saying that, Black Flying Dragon hung up the phone.

"I underestimated you."

Black Flying Dragon put away his phone, made a horizontal gesture with his right hand towards the burning building, leaving the unburned floors, and whispered as he left.

Chapter 16

The Kanto region was not far from where Black Dragon was located. In less than a minute, Black Dragon arrived at Chiyoda Ward, one of the core areas of Tokyo.

The black dragon that appeared in the sky looked around and saw that the once prosperous city had become ruins, as if it had encountered the most terrible disaster in the world. High-rise buildings collapsed on the ground, flames burned everything that could burn, and black smoke rose into the sky, threatening to cover the sky.

The entire Chiyoda Ward was almost completely wiped out, and the aftermath even spread to other special wards.

Since his transmigration, this was the first time Black Dragon had witnessed a city being destroyed by the Sirens, especially the capital of a nation.

She had expected to be angry and annoyed, but when she actually saw it, she found herself very calm, as if the ruins before her were just a painting and she was an audience member appreciating the painting, without any emotional fluctuation.

A large number of armed helicopters were flying towards them from a distance. The black dragon, which was searching for the Sirens' trail by detecting energy fluctuations, clicked its tongue in annoyance and turned to disappear.

Emerging from the space tunnel, a group of people in suits came into view, sitting around a rectangular conference table, arguing loudly. Some were young, others were older.

There are also some.

This is a conference room.

The group was arguing so fiercely that they didn't even notice the extra person in the corner.

"What are you doing?"

Black Flying Dragon tilted his head and his gaze fell on the white-furred fox sitting sideways in a chair, looking drowsy.

She had just searched for the Sirens but hadn't found them. Instead, she discovered Shinano's energy reaction. When she arrived, she was surprised to find that they were already having a meeting.

"You've arrived. This is the list of those involved in the Sirens' attack. Would you like to take a look?"

Shinano, who was about to close her eyes, slightly opened them, reached out and grabbed a form from the table, handing it to Black Flying Dragon.

"No need. The sirens that attacked this time seem to have the ability to create clones. Do you know their whereabouts?"

Black Flying Dragon glanced at the paper but did not take it.

"I don't know. I cannot observe beings like you, and this attack also failed to enter my observation range."

Shinano shook his head slightly.

"Well, the siren I met said she came to carry out a mission to eliminate traitors. I think she's probably a high-ranking member of Sakura Empire who had contact with them before... I'll leave the matter of controlling Sakura Empire to you. I'll go and deal with the siren that's getting close."

Black Dragon didn't have high hopes, but he couldn't help but feel disappointed when he heard Shinano's answer.

However, she remembered that the other party seemed to have said that he originally intended to deal with her at the end, so it was very likely that they would come knocking on her door again. She was not worried about the Sirens, as the matter could be resolved by force. The most important thing was whether she could bring Chongying over.

"Yes, this attacking sirens is quite unusual; you must be careful."

As he spoke, Shinano raised his right hand.

The entire venue suddenly fell silent, and everyone's eyes turned to Shinano. Black Dragon keenly noticed that some people looked at Shinano with awe, a look she had seen on other Sakura Empire ship girls before.

"You shall prioritize restoring the government and sending people to aid the disaster-stricken areas. The coastal defense shall proceed according to the pre-arranged plan. You may leave."

Shinano lowered his hand and said somewhat lazily.

"Yes!"

"clear."

"..."

A group of people nodded in agreement. Some people secretly glanced at Black Flying Dragon a few times before quickly leaving the meeting room, and the lively conference room soon quieted down.

"Don't worry about them. These are forces and families that have never submitted to the Sirens and have been suppressed for a long time. Some of them were just waiting to stand by and watch, but the Sirens' invasion seems to have prompted them to make a decision."

Shinano glanced at the silent black dragon and spoke softly.

"It seems my worries were unnecessary. I'm leaving."

Black Flying Dragon smirked, took a step back, and disappeared into the shadows.

……

After a brief stop in Tokyo, Black Dragon strode into the port defense zone of Sakura Empire against the Siren of the Pacific.

Unlike Donghuang, which uses offshore platforms to connect islands, this place uses magic cube energy to create artificial islands in the blank areas between islands, making full use of the ship girls' mobility to patrol repeatedly.

There is a port area every 100 nautical miles. Although it is not as dense as the Donghuang area, it is not far off. The patrol teams can even greet each other.

"Although the Sakura Empire's higher-ups have some issues with their thinking, their defense is still pretty good."

The black dragon, speeding across the sea, breathed a slight sigh of relief as it looked at the densely packed dots on the auxiliary light screen.

She was afraid that if the upper beam was crooked, the lower beam would be crooked too; if the defense line here fell apart, then she would really be left to fend for herself.

Since there are no problems here, she doesn't need to waste any more time.

Composing herself, Black Flying Dragon drew her long sword from the air with her right hand and accelerated into the spatial tunnel. Her vision blurred as she moved between black and white, leaving the Sakura Empire's defenses far behind.

boom!

Whether it was luck or not, the black dragon landed directly opposite a Siren battleship. The main guns fired almost without adjusting their angle, and a hail of shells covered an area of ​​several hundred meters around the black dragon.

Ignoring the deafening cannon fire, Black Dragon quickly surveyed her surroundings. She was currently located about 300 nautical miles east of the Sakura Empire's defense line. There weren't many Sirens within her visible range, only about fifty mass-produced ships. Observing their course, she determined that they were two different squadrons.

"It feels like it's been a long time since I've bullied a mass-produced model."

Hei Feilong exhaled and casually slashed diagonally with his longsword in his right hand. Dark red sword energy surged out, growing in the wind and rapidly spreading forward in a fan shape.

Swish!

In the blink of an eye, the blade flashed across the numerous mass-produced ships in front of the Black Flying Dragon and disappeared into the horizon.

The cannonballs flying towards the Black Dragon shattered into fragments in mid-air, retaining their momentum as they landed on the water beside her. Fighter jets, not yet fully airborne, spun and crashed onto the aircraft carrier deck. The massive battleship was split into several pieces and began to sink amidst a frenzied explosion. Fire spread rapidly across the sea, and black smoke, far more terrifying than the ruins of Tokyo, rose into the air.

Black Dragon glanced at the auxiliary light screen out of the corner of her eye. The dense red dots on it disappeared at an alarming speed. In one fell swoop, she cleared out all the Sirens within a hundred miles in front of her.

It seems outrageous, but this is actually her normal performance.

In the face of an existence like her, any enemy who does not possess spatial power can be killed simply by slightly altering the structure of space.

After all, whether it's a warship or anything else, they are essentially still...

It is pieced together from various materials and looks very sturdy on the outside, but in reality, even the slightest error inside can lead to fatal problems.

"It should be about time."

Black Dragon muttered something under his breath.

If she tries everything and the other person still doesn't come out, then there's nothing she can do.

Chapter Seventeen: A Second Blossom

Time passed slowly, and the black dragon stood still, observing and waiting warily for the white-haired siren.

The black smoke from the mass-produced explosion and combustion rose into the air and spread, reducing visibility slightly. The black smoke seemed to be trying to obscure the blue sky.

Suddenly, a strong wind blew by, making the hem of Black Dragon's clothes flap loudly. Dark clouds spread from the depths of the Pacific Ocean, and a pitch-black world rushed towards Black Dragon.

"Are you here?"

Black Dragon squinted and looked around. The light spot representing the Sirens reappeared on the auxiliary light screen. That light spot represented the mass-produced type.

Suddenly, out of the corner of her eye, Black Dragon noticed a transparent figure walking along the edge of the battleship wreckage several miles away. By the time she turned her attention to it, it had vanished.

"Not only can it evade detection, but it can even deceive the eyes?"

Black Dragon's eyes flickered slightly. If it were just a simple energy resonance, her eyes could see through it at a glance. She didn't expect that bioelectric current would have such an effect.

Her intuition told her that this siren was not easy to deal with; the ones she had encountered before were probably just bait that had been partially decoyed.

Glancing at the murky seawater caused by the shipwreck, Black Dragon leaped into the air, preparing to observe from above.
