The refusal on his lips disappeared, Xia Bai's expression was serious, and he said very seriously: "If you need me, I am happy to be that 'god'."
"Of course, I can't guarantee what the final result will be... I'm telling you guys in secret, don't tell anyone else, I often get humiliated."
Anyway, it is a spiritual symbol, and it doesn't matter who it is. Xia Bai is not afraid of shouldering too much "responsibility". The more "responsibilities" he has, the stronger he will be.
Hearing this, Fuso smiled brilliantly and replied happily: "Yes! We will serve your highness well."
"No, don't use that title. Other ship girls just add "sir" after my name, but you guys use "Your Highness" instead."
"This will make me be considered a remnant of feudal society. If I were in the Northern League, I would be put on the sidelines."
However, Fuso didn't seem to be willing to listen to him, with a look of insistence in his eyes: "This is Fuso and Yamashiro's respect for Your Highness. It is a blessing to serve Your Majesty. Calling him by his name is a crime worthy of death."
"Well, it's up to you. It seems that you are the remnants of feudalism. I hope that the Fairness Committee can give you a proper judgment when the time comes."
Sighing, Xia Bai complained about the two's persistence, then he thought of something and said nervously: "Ask a question... What do you two think of 'Amaterasu'? Can you beat her? Um... I mean 'Amaterasu' with a fox tail."
Since Kaga is 'Tsukuyomi', Xia Bai simply uses 'Amaterasu' to refer to Akagi's identity, so as to avoid being heard by the other party's sensitive fox ears. He believes that the two should be able to understand.
After all, this is not a small problem. Judging from Akagi's possessiveness and yandere nature, the miko sisters who want to serve him are likely to be assassinated, especially since both of them are from the Nagato faction.
Fortunately, Fuso and Shancheng were not too stupid. After hearing what Xia Bai said next, they realized that he was referring to a fox.
With a little worry in her eyes, Fuso said, "Well... we are no match for Lady Amaterasu. What does serving Her Highness have to do with her?"
Taking a quick glance at the bored Akagi, Xia Bai said in a very low voice: "She is my ship girl now, you understand, right?"
These words made the cat ears on Yamashiro's head droop weakly. She said with some sadness: "Lord Amaterasu is too scary... But if this is a necessary difficulty to serve His Highness, Yamashiro is willing to give it a try!"
Waving her little fists, Shancheng's expression was so heroic at this moment, as if she was ready to sacrifice for it, but her slightly trembling legs still betrayed her true thoughts.
Well, it seems that Akagi's "bad reputation" is known to everyone in Shigekaku, to the point where even a child would stop crying. The mere name is enough to scare people.
After all, I still have to explain myself in the end...
Chapter 53 Dangerous Topics
As Xia Bai continued to talk with Fuso and Yamashiro, all the personnel had taken their seats. Although a few ship girls did not arrive in time, it did not affect Nagato's joy at the moment.
It is the first time that so many people from the Sakura Empire have gathered together since Mikasa abdicated. How can we not be amazed by such a grand scene?
Even the former flagship Mikasa herself came over to inquire.
Without waiting any longer, Nagato slowly walked to the main seat and sat down. To her right were Xia Bai, Amagi, Soryuu and Hiryuu from the Second Air Force, and the four Takao sisters...
On the left are Mikasa, First Air Fleet, Izumo, Tosa, Kii, and Zuikaku... and further out are the light cruisers and destroyers of various torpedo warfare operations.
Shokaku hasn't arrived with Sheffield yet, and Taiho seemed to have played too much yesterday and returned to the 'little dark room'. I don't know if anyone notified her.
Of course, seeing that Feng Xiang didn't come either, Xia Bai's worry that had been at the tip of his throat slowly subsided. He was really afraid that the other party would bring the Purifier who liked to join in the fun.
Judging from the Purifier's appearance, anyone with eyes could tell that she was a Siren, and then it would be a difficult situation.
"Quiet!"
As Nagato's majestic voice rang out, the bustling hall quickly quieted down, and everyone turned their eyes to their flagship.
Being watched by so many people, Nagato did not get nervous. He cleared his throat and said, "I am holding a banquet in the castle tower this time to celebrate that the Sakura Empire and the Eastern Empire have reached an agreement to jointly wipe out the Sirens in the Mingyang region."
"Secondly, it is to celebrate that we, the Sakura Empire, have united again. From now on, we will no longer be hostile to or attack each other... This is inseparable from Akagi's efforts and sacrifices."
Having said that, Nagato looked at Akagi very friendly and nodded.
Originally, Akagi didn't want to pay attention to this little fox, but considering what Xia Bai said before, he decided to give Nagato this face. He stood up and showed his signature crazy smile.
"Haha~ Just as Nagato said, that's it." After expressing his meaning concisely, Akagi immediately sat back down.
She has already given enough face, and if anyone wants her to say anything else, she can only blame the other party for not having any sense.
With a slight nod, Nagato secretly thanked Akagi for his words, and then continued: "May our Sakura Empire last forever and prosper in military fortune."
After saying that, Nagato raised his glass and drank it all in one gulp.
"Long-lasting and prosperous military fortune!"
After the ship girls present repeated Nagato's words, they also raised their glasses and drank them all. Of course, the destroyers' wine was replaced with fruit juice.
Seeing this, Xia Bai also agreed and picked up the wine glass, but he had secretly asked Fuso to replace it with tea, as it was inappropriate for minors to drink alcohol.
What? You said that minors are prohibited from smoking? Then Xia Bai could only say that when smoking, it is his mental age, not his physical age.
Classic double standard.
After wiping his mouth, Nagato looked at the ship girl below, but he didn't find the pair of green cat ears. He frowned and said, "Is Akashi not here?"
She still had important things to instruct, and without Akashi around, she wouldn't know where to start many things.
At this time, Jiang Feng, who was sitting behind Nagato, leaned forward and whispered something to Nagato, which made her brows frown and she glanced at Xia Bai intentionally or unintentionally.
This made Xia Bai a little confused, and he secretly wondered if Jiang Feng was telling tales.
"Really? So that's how it is..." After Jiang Feng told him everything that happened in Sakura Empire recently, Nagato looked at Xia Bai, who was the first person on his right.
"Mr. Xia Bai, do you have anything to say about the existence of the Purifiers?"
As soon as these words were spoken, Mikasa felt that something bad was going to happen. Nagato looked like the flagship in the beginning, which made her very happy and felt that he had grown a lot. Why did he become a little different later?
As a veteran of Sakura Empire, Mikasa has a very thorough view of things. She agreed to let the Purifiers stay in Sakura Empire after careful consideration. Otherwise, Xia Bai would not have been able to convince the other ship girls.
After that, she secretly monitored the Purifier and found that this guy was obviously a fool. He would stick to anyone who was nice to him and was extremely shameless.
Feng Xiang felt sorry for the Purifier and invited him to his place for dinner several times, which touched the Purifier so much that he would bring his bowl to his place for dinner every day from then on.
There was a minor conflict between a ship girl and Feng Xiang, and the Purifier even stood up for Feng Xiang. She had simply forgotten her identity as a Siren and was almost accepting Feng Xiang as her sister.
To say that the other party has some plans for Fengxiang is not true. Fengxiang's strength is barely above average among the Sakura Empire. What is there to worry about?
After much analysis, Mikasa gave up surveillance. She felt that this was the nature of the Purifiers, and that the Sirens had room for communication.
Even though Nagato might not know the details, Mikasa was a little overwhelmed by the question.
She just wanted to grab him by the collar and yell, "Are you questioning Xia Bai? Or has the reintegration of the Sakura Empire made you lose sight of the situation and become arrogant? Is it appropriate to ask such a heart-piercing question to his face?"
But things have come to this, and Mikasa can only pray that Xia Bai has a better temper and doesn't get angry directly. The status of the strong and the weak is very different.
With the power of the son of Prometheus, it only takes a thought to destroy the Sakura Empire...
However, Xia Bai did not think as much as Mikasa. With his low IQ, he just cursed the fisherman for having a bad conscience and actually telling tales.
He immediately stood up and said, "I was the one who asked the Purifier to stay in the Sakura Empire. Although she is a siren, she helped us a lot in the battle of Qiangong."
"I think... it would be okay to take her in for a few days until she can go back, right?"
Of course there is no problem, but you can't say this, dear.
Helplessly covering his forehead, Akagi was about to get up and turn the table, but was stopped by Kaga. The white fox took a sip of tea and said lightly: "Let the commander speak for himself... Let's see if the little fox has really changed, because your compromise has made you arrogant."
"If she really changes, we will kill her today."
Staring at Kaga's calm pupils, Akagi smiled, gave up the idea of overturning the table, and tapped his fingers on the chopping board.
"Then, Xia Baijun, do you know that... the Siren is our enemy?"
"Of course I know that, but Nagato, are you aware of the existence of Ember and Humility? Of course, this does not mean that the Sirens are not our enemies. I just..."
"enough!"
Interrupting Xia Bai's explanation, Nagato shook his head in disappointment and sighed as if he felt sorry for Xia Bai.
"Perhaps, Xia Baijun, you have taken the wrong path, and you have even forgotten your blood feud."
As soon as the words fell, the scene fell into silence.
After hearing this, Jiang Feng's tail stood up and he looked at the petite figure in front of him in disbelief. Is Lord Nagato going crazy?
I was just following my duty as a guard and told him everything that had happened during this period without any exaggeration. How did Lord Nagato come up with such an idea?
"..."
After standing there blankly for a while, Xia Bai revealed a cruel smile.
"Nagato, do you want to die?"
"If you are tired of living, I can help you."
Blue light particles condensed behind him, and a huge mecha gradually revealed its shape.
Chapter 54 I’m going to embarrass Nagato today!
gloat.
This was Akagi's truest reaction. Seeing the blue and white mecha slowly appearing, she not only did not try to stop it, but was very happy and laughed so hard that she fell over.
Xia Bai has a very mild temper and doesn't get angry easily. Most of the time, people tease or make fun of him but he won't say anything. He is like a glutinous rice ball that can be kneaded and kneaded, but this is only what people around him say.
Although he didn't want to admit it in his heart, Akagi knew that Shokaku occupied a more important position in Xia Bai's heart. But even so, when Shokaku strongly opposed his plan, he would not easily mention that matter in front of Xia Bai.
Who do you think you are, Nagato? Do you really think you are the flagship with the power of life and death? You even claimed that Xia Bai had forgotten the hatred.
This was something that even Sheffield didn't dare to say. It undoubtedly opened Xia Bai's bloody scars again and sprinkled salt on them.
However, seeing the helpless expression on Nagato's face that looked like he wanted to cry, Akagi felt very disappointed.
"Tsk... That's boring. The little fox just said the wrong thing. It seems that we have no legitimate reason to kill her today."
Akagi spoke lazily, holding her cheeks and watching the subsequent developments with boredom.
Kaga looked up and glanced at Nagato, but without saying anything he continued to hold the hot tea in his hand and sip it.
"It's okay to see her make a fool of herself..."
The two foxes had been fighting with Nagato for so long, and they knew better than anyone that a fight was impossible in this situation.
Because Nagato wanted to maintain the dignity of his flagship, the way he spoke was a little hard to accept and had a questioning tone.
In fact, she probably wanted to know from Xia Bai the reason why the Purifiers stayed in Sakura Empire, but she started to slip up while talking, and she also had to maintain the face of the headquarters flagship, so it turned out like this.
Speaking directly, pretending to be authoritative, not considering the occasion...all possible mistakes were made in just a few sentences.
Based on Akagi's understanding of Nagato, in a short while, this inexperienced chief flagship would cry and apologize to Xia Bai, and she would look very aggrieved and pitiful.
Even though they couldn't kill the little fox, the First Air Fleet was still happy to see the other party make a fool of itself.
But they were not the only ones who could see this. Mikasa also discovered this. Nagato was not being arrogant, but he just said the wrong thing with good intentions.
In order to prevent things from going in the wrong direction again, Mikasa shook her head and stood up.
"Lord Xia Bai, calm down and listen to me."
He had short, messy hair, a delicate face, and a dark military uniform covered with medals. He looked sunny and confident, and the white horn on his ear made it easy for Xia Bai to recognize his identity.
With a cold snort, Xia Bai waved his hand to disperse the light particles behind him, and decided to give some face to Mikasa, the highly respected ship girl.
"Okay...you go ahead."
Seeing Xia Bai taking back the mecha that had not yet appeared, Mikasa put aside her worries and thought to herself that the situation had taken a turn for the better. It now depended on whether she could convince the other party and leave some face for Nagato.
"What the general flagship said just now was unintentional and there was no malice..."
"Speak something I can understand, don't pretend to be a scholar."
After being rudely interrupted by Xia Bai, Mikasa didn't get angry. She scratched her head and said with a smile: "What I mean is that Nagato is still young, and his way of speaking is a little clumsy, and what he thinks in his heart is different from what he says."
"Nagato has been under a lot of pressure since he was young, especially after becoming the chief flagship. He even learned to speak like the kings in history... Sorry, Master Xia Bai, please forgive me for making a fool of myself."
It was completely different when Nagato cried and apologized to Xia Bai, and when Mikasa stood up and revealed Nagato's dirty laundry.
The former destroyed Nagato's dignity, and from then on no one in the Sakura Empire could obey her orders, while the latter was like the former chief flagship talking to a distinguished guest about the current chief flagship, which did not cause much impact.
Moreover, Mikasa also cleverly played the emotional card and gave Xia Bai a way out. She believed that Xia Bai did not really want to fight and was just a little impulsive in anger.
Looking at Nagato's tense expression, Xia Bai felt that it was too cheap to argue with a little girl. If it got out, he would be laughed at, so he walked down the stairs and said, "Okay, I was impulsive, but I reserve my opinion on the matter of the Purifier staying in the Sakura Empire."
Hearing this, Mikasa was overjoyed. She finally persuaded this guy to stop. She nodded and said, "Of course, I also agree that the Purifiers should stay in Sakura Empire..."
Then he looked at the other ship girls present and said confidently: "If any of you have any questions, feel free to come to me."
This is the nature of the matter. If anyone talks about the Purifiers in the future, they would be going against Mikasa.
Seeing Mikasa being so understanding, Xia Bai forgot about his previous unhappiness, and remembered what Shinano asked him to confirm, so he took out the "whistle" from his pocket.
"What's a banquet without music? To express my apology, I'll play a song for everyone."
After saying that, before anyone else could react, Xia Bai started playing a little tune from his hometown.
While there are many people around, he wants to confirm whether this thing can absorb the spiritual power of the ship girl.
Of course, no one else could possibly know what was going on in Xia Bai's head. They just felt that this man was somewhat abnormal. He had just turned the table over and was about to start a fight, but now he started playing music in a friendly manner.
