Shut up! I'm not a destroyer!

The destroyer girl, who was bored from standing guard and looking around on the windowsill of her own observation deck, saw a battleship with a tall, illegally constructed bridge heading towards her.

...ovo...

"Langley, why are you here?"

The fighting ship girl fired a shot and was about to take a breath and rest, but she felt there was a guy next to her. Turning back, she saw it was Langley who was ordered to guard the city.

"I...I'm here to help. The battle situation isn't going well."

Langley replied as he tried to release the carrier-based aircraft.

"It's okay. The information seeking additional personnel has been sent out. It won't be long before colleagues come to recruit additional personnel."

The blonde girl who was communicating with Langley clenched her fists vigorously, full of energy.

"Cleveland, it's other people's business to recruit new members. I can't just watch my colleagues fight while I hide behind them!"

Langley hesitated, but when he thought about the changes he wanted to make, he mustered up the courage to speak out loud.

"Silly boy, you are also making a contribution in the rear, keeping our backyard from catching fire or something."

Cleveland stretched out his index finger and shook it: "Don't belittle yourself, you are very powerful."

"Thanks……"

The courage that Langley had just mustered seemed to be shattered by Cleveland's praise.

She could only hum two words in a voice as soft as a mosquito.

"careful!"

Another deep-sea counterattack shell whizzed past overhead.

Cleveland quickly pushed Langley down and shrank back.

Although the beach was empty, there were many craters in the sand caused by artillery shells.

These craters provide space for the ship girls to hide.

"These guys are becoming more and more difficult to deal with."

Cleveland stuck his head out to look at the sea, then retracted his head: "You came at a good time. Can you provide me with some vision?"

“东经129°51′55〃4,北纬32°46′10〃3。 ”

Langley closed his eyes, and after a while, he said a coordinate.

"Ha, thank you very much."

Cleveland huddled in the crater and adjusted the angle of the guns mounted on his ship.

"boom!"

The shell flew out of the crater in a parabola.

After a while, a huge explosion was heard from the sea.

Cleveland looked out again, then retreated back into the pit: "Next."

...ovo...

The head of Deep Sea Yamato that had poked out of the shell crater retracted into the crater.

"Are we escaping?"

Then she nudged Veneto beside her with her elbow.

"Calculate."

Veneto nodded firmly.

“It’s really not something that makes me feel comfortable.”

Fukamiya Yamato sighed. This was the first time since she was born that she ran away in the middle of a battle.

"You have to remember your identity, dear, you are not a ship girl."

Veneto climbed out of the shell crater and said, "Let's go now. Stop daydreaming."

"I'm coming."

Fukayama grabbed the edge of the sand pit and tried to flip himself out.

However, her weight seemed a little too heavy, and the sand pit had been ravaged by artillery fire and was softer than usual. When she exerted force, her hands sank into the sand.

Fortunately, she turned sideways in time, grabbed the edge of the beach with her feet, and flipped herself up.

But this process made her look a little embarrassed.

"Your goal is too big."

Veneto sighed, crouched down and quickly rushed to the next shell crater lined up along the beach. After taking a look at the situation inside, she jumped in.

Deep Sea Yamato followed suit and jumped into the sand pit.

Then she found that she had stepped into the sea.

"Why do we have to advance pit after pit like this?"

Fukayama asked once he reached the bottom of the pit.

She felt it was very strenuous.

Keep climbing out and falling down.

"We can't let the ship girl see the deep sea and not attack us, otherwise we won't be able to go to Nagasaki Castle in the future."

Veneto stuck his head out to take a look at the situation. The two of them were already far away from the battlefield, and there were no more shell craters two shell craters ahead.

This was not good news, as it meant they had to run a few steps on the unobstructed beach before entering the unobstructed sea.

However, what made Veneto speechless was that the battlefield at this time was much quieter than before.

If there is chaos, she can drag Shenhai Yamato into the sea.

If she rushed to the surface of the sea now, she would be as conspicuous as a drop of ink on a white paper.

"Hold on."

Anyway, the battle situation will not remain stalemate. Either they will escape to the deep sea or the ship girls will retreat. However, no matter which result, a battle is bound to break out.

Whether to return to the sea and escape when the battle breaks out, or to wait for one side to win and then make a decision, the battle must start first, and Veneto can make a decision based on the situation.

"Then can we eat and wait?"

Deep-sea Yamato dug out some dried fish.

"It's written in the book that you have to eat when you watch a play, that fits the atmosphere."

"Then do you know what atmosphere means?"

Veins popped up on Veneto's forehead.

"What do you mean?"

Fukayama threw a small dried fish into his mouth, chewed it into crumbs, swallowed it, and curiously followed Veneto's words and asked.

"It means that it's not appropriate now. This is a war, an occasion for shipgirls or the deep sea to return to the embrace of the sea. Did your book say that it's best not to eat in a funeral home?"

Veneto snatched the dried fish from the Deep Sea Yamato's hand.

"Your behavior would be condemned by the human world. This is not the right atmosphere."

If Veneto knew who those people were who made fun of the dead on the Internet, she would definitely curse them and wish them to have children without assholes (weird banned word)!

NO.353 She thinks too much

On the sea surface, smoke rolled from time to time and drifted in the air.

This was a mixture of smoke from shells and burning debris.

There are still some losses in the deep sea, but the losses of the ship girls are much smaller. After all, they are on the defensive side and can make use of terrain such as sand pits.

Moreover, the ship girls cooperate with each other. The aircraft carrier's planes provide reconnaissance and vision, and the battleship ship girls fire artillery attacks.

The deep sea is not that complicated, everyone acts on their own and attacks freely.

Many times, a group of deep sea creatures will choose a target to attack at the same time, but that target may not be a key target, it may just be an insignificant character.

The deep-sea aircraft carrier releases planes randomly. Sometimes they are all bombers. After they are all shot down by the ship girls' fighters, they will remember to release fighters to fight back.

As for providing enemy location information to other deep sea areas?

Low-level deep-sea players don’t know how to look at the position, they just shoot blindly.

"It's okay. It looks like they are just a harassment squad."

Nagato put down his hands that were setting up the awning. The eyes of the ship girl were comparable to telescopes when she was wearing the ship uniform.

So she didn't have to put in much effort to get a general idea of ​​the situation on the battlefield.

"We are here just in time to break the deadlock."

After a period of growth, the former Mutsu has become much more mature.

"It's better to be careful to prevent ambushes in the deep sea."

Nagato thought for a while and then spoke on the communication channel.

Ever since that encounter with Deep Sea Yamato, she has become extremely cautious about fighting with Deep Sea.

"Then let's attack from the side and catch them by surprise."

Mutsu pointed to the sparsely populated battlefield on the side.

"Every unit prepares!"

Nagato glanced at the direction Mutsu was pointing, nodded, and spoke loudly in the channel.

“进攻开始，目标，侧面战场，东经129°51′57〃8,北纬32°46′9〃5！”

"Received! Attack begins!"

A uniform response sounded in the channel.

After receiving an order, sailors at sea will repeat it to make sure they have not heard it wrong and to let the leader who gave the order know that they have received the order.

As the ship girls who were transformed from battleships, they naturally also studied this tradition.

After the order was given, Nagato and the other ships in the team began to accelerate towards the sea area she had just designated.

...ovo...

"Something seems to have happened over there?"

Veneto poked her little head out of the sand pit and looked across the sea that stretched across the entire battlefield.

There was a sudden commotion over there; even the bombardment of the beach by the deep sea suddenly subsided for a while, and then continued sporadically.

"Get ready, our chance is coming."

Veneto looked for a while, but couldn't see the situation clearly, after all, it was too far away.

It’s a pity that the chaos didn’t happen on the side of the battlefield on her side, otherwise she could have taken advantage of the situation to escape.

Although it wasn't her turn to be in chaos, she still had to make preparations.

"Is that what you're waiting for?"

Veneto had not explained things in detail to Fukuyama Yamato before, so Fukuyama Yamato followed Veneto and waited completely out of trust in Veneto and indifference to the current situation.

In fact, Deep Sea Yamato didn't know what he was waiting for.

"That's right. We can't just run into the sea. We can only find an excuse. That's the excuse."

Veneto pointed to the place in the distance that had suddenly turned into a chaotic battlefield.

Only if a ship girl suddenly pokes the deep sea's ass (strange harmony), will such chaos break out in the sea area behind the deep sea.

"It's the same principle as when we left the city?"

Fukamiya showed an expression of sudden enlightenment.

"You are so smart. I like it."

"...I don't believe this isn't mentioned in the book you read. You're just too lazy to recall it."
