Shut up! I'm not a destroyer!

Haruna released the hands that were covering her ears and stared at the deep-sea fleet that was revealing its full appearance in the distance.

After a few seconds, a huge flame rose over there.

Kirishima's shells successfully hit the ammunition depot of a destroyer in the Deep Sea formation.

The entire deep-sea destroyer collapsed from the sea surface, broke into two pieces and fell back into the sea surface.

Three more shells hit other destroyers.

One of the ships had already begun to sink, its bow having been hit by Kirishima.

After a while, I'm afraid that after its head sinks below the water surface, it will stick its butt up and then dive back into the deep seabed.

"Well, it seems that the defense has not been improved much."

Haruna nodded, feeling a little less stressed.

But the next second, she felt like her heart was on a roller coaster.

"This is really troublesome. Let's prepare to return to report our work."

Haruna scratched his head in distress.

She saw that after the destroyer in the deep sea that was broken into two sank, the destroyer behind it immediately took its place.

That was the combat formation of the Deep Sea this time. The front-row destroyers were ordered to withstand the enemy's firepower.

This shows that there are actually guys in the deep sea who can command battles.

This is very important information.

And the fact that they are arranged in formation probably indicates that the level or type of ships controlled by these deep-sea guys are very high.

"Is there a flagship?"

Haruna stretched her neck, as if she could see past the front row of the deep sea and what was in the back row.

Unfortunately this did not work out.

"Tsk, it's really troublesome not to have an aircraft carrier."

Kirishima smacked his lips.

If there were an aircraft carrier here, and a reconnaissance plane was sent out to look from high above, perhaps it would be possible to see what was behind those neatly arranged deep-sea fleets.

"Prepare to retreat. Report back that you have discovered Dean Shen Hai approaching the frontline base."

Haruna shook his head and sighed.

Those deep-sea destroyers, which were obviously under command, seemed to be loose, but through coordination with the cruisers, they completely covered their rear rows.

Perhaps only by attacking from behind can we find some clues.

Of course, it is also possible that it is the rear row of the strange deep-sea fleet, which is also wrapped around a bunch of warships.

"boom!"

Juno fired a shell at the front destroyer of the Deep Sea Fleet, then accelerated towards Kirishima.

The light cruiser's artillery also caused several plumes of thick smoke.

It's just not as strong as the battleship's, and the damage is obviously not ideal.

There is no expulsion or deceleration in the deep sea.

The shells that landed on the deep-sea cruiser didn't even form any black smoke.

Perhaps the shells penetrated the deep-sea cruiser's defenses but did not cause serious damage.

"This is Shimakaze, there is no enemy in my direction."

Shimakaze's reply also arrived.

"Feng Feng reports, nothing has happened here either."

After confirming the radar display again and again, Fengfeng also reported.

"In that case, they should have just arrived here. Let's go back and inform the base. Shimakaze goes first."

Haruna thought for a moment and named the fastest ship girl in this reconnaissance operation.

If the radio transmission distance is sufficient, Haruna can call for support without Shimakaze having to make the trip in person.

Unfortunately, after emerging from the deep sea, the communication range of radio has been castrated.

"Shimakaze got it! Woohoo! Shimakaze Messenger, set off now!"

In the distance, a long and narrow destroyer sped away.

"Let's go too."

Haruna patted her sister.

Judging from the other party's attitude, he is here to cause trouble.

If they continue to stay, they might not be able to leave.

"Feng Feng received."

Far away on the other side, Fengfeng made a sharp turn.

The wake of the ship forms a perfect arc on the sea surface.

"Juno received."

Juno controlled her own body, slightly changed the direction, and passed directly by Kirishima, while leaving space for Kirishima to move.

Kirishima also turned the rudder and threw one side of the anchor into the sea.

The chain rattled for a moment and then instantly straightened.

The huge battleship used its hull as a windshield wiper, turning a line into a surface.

"Is everything ok, sister?"

Haruna gripped the railing of Kirishima's deck and looked at her sister with some concern.

"No problem, just go back and take a bath."

Kirishima replied nonchalantly.

For a behemoth like a battleship, any fast maneuver would be a test for them.

Especially the dragon bones, which are just like human bones.

It is completely different for a skinny person to do the "Secret Technique: Repeated Sideways Jumping" and for a fat person to do it.

Some ships with poor manufacturing technology may even have their keels broken due to their own weight due to excessive maneuvers.

Fortunately, war machines such as battleships are still very sturdy most of the time.

Those poor guys who have to stay in the shipyard for months or even years because of a collision are more likely to be thin-skinned like destroyers and aircraft carriers.

NO.167 Take the initiative and intercept from the outside

"Woo~"

The alarm sounded throughout the entire front-line base.

"Attention, this is not a false alarm, this is not a false alarm, the suspected Dean of the Deep Sea has appeared, the suspected Dean of the Deep Sea has appeared..."

Along with the alarm sound, there was also a pleasant female announcer's voice floating in the air.

But few people are in the mood to judge the professional level of the female anchor at this moment.

When the recruit who was put in solitary confinement because of a false alarm pressed the alarm, no female announcer said it was "not a false alarm."

There is now a report confirming this incident, and the coordinates have been reported, which is extremely true.

Now the ordinary people doing business at the front-line base panicked and ran to the air-raid shelters.

Only a confused person would do something like taking a boat to the rear.

Who knows if the direction where the deep sea appears is just the coordinate location.

If a deep sea appears on the way from the front base to the rear base, then these ordinary wounded people will definitely sink into the sea along with the boat they are on.

Don't talk about asking a ship girl for escort.

If it happens in the deep sea where the ship girl can easily deal with it, is there any need to sound the alarm?

Moreover, the responsibility of a ship girl, whose main task is to fight deep-sea operations, is not to escort merchants.

There are a group of ship girls working on the front line, and only the ones protecting the base are left here.

Where can we spare the ship girls to escort those merchants? It's simply not a good idea.

The only ones walking calmly on the road were admirals and ship girls, there were no ordinary people.

Dean Shenhai not only represents danger, but also opportunity.

It's not a thankless task. Dean Shenhai was sent back to the deep sea. The admirals and ship girls who contributed will not only receive a lot of supplies, but also receive some rewards from the European Emperor's Palace or the Governor's Office.

Of course, there are also medals issued by the Governor's Office.

Holding those things in your hands is proof of your worth, and it is most convenient to take on some escort missions.

How could those who issued the mission refuse to be escorted by a warship that had defeated the dean?

It was a bit of a fluke, or maybe a little confidence. In short, there were not many ship girls and admirals hiding.

Most of them are guys who have little confidence or self-awareness.

At worst, all his ship girls were sent to explore the map with the main force, and he, an admiral, had no choice but to hide.

"Sister, let's set off quickly. They need our support."

Hiei adjusted his white wide-brimmed hat and looked at the half-blood ship girl Kongo with long golden hair beside him.

Then she grabbed the little loli with pink and white fur, sailor uniform and cat ears who was circling around her and her older sister.

"Relaxed, they are on their way back. With their speed, it is not easy for the deep sea to catch up. We just need to follow the main force to ambush and rescue them."

King Kong also adjusted his navy hat.

The two of them had just brought Shimakaze and handed over intelligence from the garrison at the front-line base.

The commander-in-chief of the front-line base is stationed in this admiral's mansion, a middle-aged admiral with high moral character and high respect.

For the admirals who come to the front line, most of their missions are accepted in the mission hall built here.

Of course, important information like the strange deep sea needs to be reported to the commander-in-chief.

Of course, the etiquette of taking off the hat is necessary.

"That's what I mean, so let's go."

Hiei is a ship girl with little confidence, which may be due to some experiences on her original ship.

After she became a ship girl, it was automatically instilled into her memory.

Most of the ship girls have small problems, some of which will have a good impact, such as Bismarck's military temperament.

Some will produce bad images, like Hiei.

She was so unconfident that she was afraid she couldn't defeat the enemy before even seeing what he looked like.

Most of the time, she had little to do with the word 'try'.

"Let's go! Let's go! Shimakaze is ready to go!"

In line with Hiei's words, the little loli rubbed her head against Hiei's palm.

The furry touch made Hiei relax a little.

"Don't worry, trust your sisters."

Kongo allowed Hiei and Shimakaze to hold his hands and head towards the port.

Of course, what she said was to comfort her sister.

Although I feel that my sister is old-fashioned, rigid and serious at the moment, she is still very cute with her little face.

I know that if I'm really slow, Hiei will always be concerned and keep urging me, just like a reader urging someone to die.

King Kong didn't really do what he said, neither hurried nor slow.
