Crossing the azure as a black dragon

"Sorry sorry."

White Dragon waved his hand in apology, but what he was really thinking was whether Black Flying Dragon would also use scent to find people?

"Did Lord Shinano leave any instructions before he left?"

Shimakaze wasn't really angry. He propped himself up on the bench with his hands and asked Haku.

"She said she was going to find Akashi, but she didn't say why she was going to find Akashi."

white

The dragon shrugs.

"Oh! Then let's go find Akashi."

……

boom!

The deafening explosion made Black Dragon's ears ache.

She had lost count of how many times she had been hit by cannonballs. Although her energy shield had helped her block the impact of the cannonballs, something in the sea kept making noise, which made her already unpleasant mood even more irritable.

With a backhand slash, crescent-shaped sword energy shot out from her hand. The sword energy flew so fast that it left afterimages in the air, making it look as if her longsword emitted a crescent-shaped beam of light that severed the siren that had ambushed her.

"..."

After taking down the last siren on the sea, the Black Dragon took a deep breath and looked up at the sky obscured by dark clouds.

The once turbulent waves have gradually calmed down, and the rubble and debris from the island have dissipated. Qiao Mu drifted away with the waves, and the only ones still standing on the water in this area were her and the platform with a large number of gun emplacements extending several kilometers away, bombarding her.

In the sky, the more than fifty planes she launched were circling around the Sirens' silver-white platform, looking like a nest of birds that had discovered their nest was on fire and wanted to put it out but dared not approach and could only circle and chirp around it.

At first, she thought she hadn't controlled it properly, but now she was certain that there was a strong gravitational pull near the combat platform, which was over ten meters high and had an irregular cylindrical shape. Her fleet speed was not fast enough to break through this gravitational barrier, and even if she controlled the fleet to travel in a straight line, it would automatically avoid the platform.

"Is it the ability of another Siren? Since she chose to defend, this must be the limit of her ability's balance."

Forcing himself to calm down, Black Dragon analyzed the situation.

"Ugh, this constant noise is so annoying."

Halfway through his thought, the black dragon suddenly stomped its foot on the water's surface. The invisible sound wave collided with the penetrating sound wave coming from the seabed, and then surged directly into the deep sea with a crushing force. With a splash, the unknown siren life form turned into a cloud of blood mist on the seabed and disappeared without a trace as it was swept away by the seawater.

The sounds around him disappeared, like swatting a mosquito that had been buzzing around his ears; Black Dragon felt the world was much cleaner now.

"What are these two guys on QQ group #543659389 doing? They haven't attacked me yet. Do they think they can take me down with just this trash and this platform?"

Turning her gaze back to the silver platform, Black Dragon's consciousness stirred, and all the planes that had been dodging the edge of the silver platform's artillery fire flew back to her side, turning into specks of light and returning to her ship's rigging.

She took a step to avoid the bombardment from the platform's turrets. Dark red starlight began to gather, and a pure black fighter jet took off from her deck. The moment it took off, it transformed into a black shadow, hovering in the air. Under her control, it completed a few simple aerobatic maneuvers to avoid the anti-aircraft guns before spinning and crashing into the platform where the Sirens were located.

When it approached within 30 meters of the Siren platform, Black Dragon clearly felt that the aircraft had encountered multiple barriers rotating in different directions. The fighter jet, which was traveling at a speed exceeding Mach 2, could not withstand the force and instantly turned into energy fragments that dissipated into the air.

Black Flying Dragon frowned. This aircraft was simulated by her using pure energy. Its hardness exceeded that of materials available in the world, and its impact force was impeccable. However, the surrounding force was too strong. When the two collided, her aircraft shattered instantly.

Can Rubik's Cube energy influence and manipulate gravity?

Having failed in his first attack, Black Dragon did not immediately organize another wave of attacks, but instead calmed down to think things through.

If this siren uses its own energy or biological characteristics to drive changes in gravity, then she can definitely do it too, as long as she finds the right method, she can master this power. But if the other party uses technological devices to transform it, then she has no way to do it.

She wasn't particularly bright; she could manage to mimic the other person's biological characteristics, but when it came to scientific issues, she was at a loss.

"I've suffered from my lack of education. I should go back and consult Tiancheng more."

After pondering for a long time, Black Dragon still couldn't come up with a solution. He directly assumed a sword-drawing stance, swung his long sword with his right hand, and a huge, dark red crescent moon emerged from his body, slashing towards the Siren's platform. The high concentration of energy caused the surrounding space to distort slightly, but it failed to shatter the space.

Boom!

The blade collided with the platform's invisible shield, and visible ripples spread from the point where the two forces met. A powerful wind caused the surrounding seawater to churn wildly, and there was even a scene where seawater was pouring into the sky. The dark red arcs of electricity flashing from the blade pulsed wildly, penetrating the resistance shield bit by bit.

Seeing this, Black Dragon sheathed his sword and slashed again, the sword light, more than ten meters high, continuously striking the barrier. Meanwhile, the Siren's output also began to increase, and the two began to clash in terms of energy quality. It was as if a typhoon of more than ten levels had risen around them, and the aftershocks spread far and wide. The fish also felt uneasy and began to frantically jump out of the water. The space that had been under the pressure of the two forces finally could not bear it and showed signs of cracking like an eggshell.

This phenomenon gave Black Dragon a glimpse of its potential; it turned out that the problem wasn't a lack of spatial resonance, but rather that the force she was using was too weak.

Just as the Black Dragon was about to exert its full strength, the Sirens' massive platform disintegrated on the spot, turning into metal tentacles that began to sink into the sea. The power that had been blocking the Black Dragon suddenly disappeared, and the dozen or so blades carrying the Black Dragon's power flew away into the distance.

Black Flying Dragon's expression changed instantly. This was her full-force slash, and she herself didn't know how far it would go. If a few of these slashes landed on Sakura Empire's territory, wouldn't it explode on the spot?

Fortunately, her concerns were quickly dispelled. Her sword light struck another barrier more than ten nautical miles away. This barrier was not as robust as the one released by the Sirens' main body and was shattered on the spot by the sword light. The familiar spatial rift appeared in the Black Dragon's sight.

"Wow, is that all there is to it?"

Black Dragon's eyes flickered slightly. These two sirens didn't seem to dare to confront her head-on. She couldn't kill them in a short time, so there was no point in dragging it out.

She decided to make a strategic retreat.

Chapter Twenty-Two: Before the Opening

Under a sky full of dark clouds, the black dragon sped across the sea, its feet pushing the waves and creating beautiful white sprays. Its long, snow-white hair danced wildly in the wind, like a fairy bringing a touch of life to this gloomy world.

"..."

As she approached the expected location, Black Dragon felt a little uneasy. This unease caused her to slow down her flight and glance back at the spot where the Siren platform had disintegrated.

Just minutes ago, there was a tall, imposing building platform standing there, but now everything is calm, as if nothing had happened. Her radar system and sensory abilities cannot detect the other party's presence, and the situation is not ideal.

Would they really just let her leave like that?

Black Dragon wondered if this was impossible, but the fact was that the other party didn't react at all to her departure, as if she had already gone ahead, which was very unusual.

"Judging from the Sirens' past behavior, there must be a conspiracy behind this unusual behavior. Could it be that they want to attack me the moment I cross that blockade line and let my guard down?"

Maintaining a steady speed, the black dragon pondered to itself.

However, judging from the current situation, the local authorities' blocking of the space's resonance has not driven her to a dead end. This blockade is not an insurmountable barrier for her, and she has no reason to lower her guard just because she has another way to kill enemies.

"What a despicable bunch of bastards, actually using the 'idle play' on me, are they trying to make me outwit thin air?"

Unable to figure out what the Sirens were up to, the black dragon gave up thinking and, cursing, accelerated again.

However, this acceleration was not aimed at speed, but rather a more direct increase in speed. The black dragon took a step and started running directly on the water.

Black Dragon's first step created a huge impact on the water, sending waves four or five meters high soaring into the sky and scattering like flower petals. Black Dragon itself disappeared like a bullet, vanishing in the wind.

……

Thousands of meters below the surface of the ocean, enormous mechanical tentacles clung to the seabed like a large mollusk, scaring away the creatures that originally inhabited the area.

"Are we just going to let her go like this?"

Lian, a siren with beautiful long hair just like the black dragon, looked at the black dragon on the light screen as it made a thousand-meter dash across the sea using unconventional methods, her tone revealing a hint of resentment.

"...Her understanding of energy has reached a very deep level. I have a feeling that if I use my ability in front of her, she will learn it in a matter of minutes. Would you like to see that happen?"

The senior siren with light blue short hair was standing next to her. Her face was a little pale, and her hands were trembling slightly as she spoke.

"Tsk, I didn't expect her to be such a troublesome person. You rest here, I'll go and stall her a little longer."

When it comes to Black Flying Dragon's learning ability, Lian couldn't help but click her tongue in amazement.

Beings like them are practically born with a predetermined path. The abilities and powers they use are the strongest of countless possibilities. Facing a type like Black Dragon that learns whatever it thinks or sees, they are like natural enemies. If they can't kill it on sight, they can't kill it again.

She tested him twice and had already revealed most of her tricks. If she were to get close to Black Flying Dragon again, she would probably die on the spot.

"Be careful, Lord Yuan wouldn't want to see you absent."

"It is the senior siren who spoke."

"Don't worry, I already placed my half-body in the base. Once this body dies, the other side will quickly gain the dominant power and become another me."

Lian waved her hand and disappeared into the dark seabed.

The senior siren watched Lian leave and sighed softly.

Lian's body splits, and her consciousness will also split. When this body dies, her consciousness will dissipate. In other words, all the teaching she did was for nothing when this Lian died.

……

"Ready? Akashi-neko, do you know what's next?"

On a small island of several thousand square meters in the sea, Shimakaze and the green-haired cat Akashi are talking around a device that radiates outwards like a loudspeaker.

"I don't know, meow. My task is just to install these things in the gaps in the defense line, meow. The sirens are coming soon, and I have to go back, meow."

Akashi poked the construction hat on his head, wagged his tail, and meowed regretfully.

"Tsk, is that adult who always messes up at crucial moments really okay? Can you guys get in touch with Amagi? We want to ask her directly."

Bai Long, who was acting as a bodyguard, complained about Shinano with a disgruntled expression, and began to miss the days when Amagi was the commander-in-chief.

"Can

Meow.

Akashi took out a tablet from his sleeve and contacted Amagi, who was drinking coffee and processing documents in Donghuang.

"Shinano is asleep again?"

Seeing Haku on the other side of the screen, Amagi picked up his coffee, took a sip, and asked in a calm tone.

"Yes, she told us to find Akashi, but Akashi is about to go home now. What should we do?"

Bai Long nodded repeatedly. During her time living in Sakura Empire, she realized one thing: there were plenty of armed men in their organization, but very few people like Amagi who could issue correct instructions.

This operation requires Nagato, the flagship commander, and Mikasa, along with their group, to deal with the mess within Sakura Empire. The only one who comes is Shinano, a sickly woman who likes to be absent, which is really troublesome.

"Yes, let me think. You guys meet up with the others first. For the first half hour after the battle starts, stay at Shinano's resting place. If Shinano and Black Dragon haven't appeared by then, activate the weapon that Akashi installed, and then go assist the port fleet in defense and be wary of those things attacking."

After a few seconds of silence, Tiancheng gave a rough outline of the plan.

Since he wasn't there in person, Tiancheng didn't dare to give a very detailed prediction.

"Oh! This makes things much simpler."

Haku grinned, then returned the tablet to Akashi, stretched lazily, and walked to the side with a satisfied expression.

"Akashi, does that thing Avira left behind really have no effect on the ship girls?"

The tablet was handed over, and Amagi looked at Akashi, who seemed a little troubled, and asked him softly.

"Yes, meow. The commander said that most ship girls currently have very little energy in their bodies, so even if they are affected, they will only experience a brief period of dizziness and there will be no casualties, meow."
