He immediately rolled up his sleeves to fight the opponent for real. He thought, are you kidding? He was with Shinano every day and night, how could he lose to this little guy Nagato.
"I think your words are questionable, Nagato. Shinano is my wife, so of course she likes me the most."
"Although you are the commander, you may not understand her as well as I do. We have been together for much longer than you have."
"Time is not the key. What's key is love. I love you, don't you understand? Looking at you like this, Nagato, I guess you don't even know what love is."
"The feelings between me and Shinano go beyond what is called love. Commander's statement is wrong."
"..."
"Um...Is it because I came at a bad time?"
Shinano appeared here because she felt that the "Goshin Gate" was opened, but it seemed that the two did not notice her. Instead, they started arguing over who knew them better, and even forgot what their purpose was.
Hearing Shinano's lazy voice, Xia Bai said, "No, you came at the right time."
Then he ran to her, hugged her slender waist, and raised his head high.
"Shinano, tell Nagato that you like me the most. Let this ignorant little fox see who really understands you."
Shinano gently tapped Xia Bai's head and said lovingly, "Commander, you are still so childish." Then he looked at Nagato, whose expression was tense and he wanted to cry.
"Long time no see, Nagato, you've grown up."
"Well, long time no see."
In order to maintain the dignity of his flagship, Nagato resisted the urge to cry and answered in a calm voice.
"I've been really hard on you during this period. The burden of the Sakura Empire falls on you alone... I'm not even qualified to be the chief flagship."
"Don't say that. The fact that the flagship was captured by the Sirens was due to the poor protection of the Sakura Empire. It has nothing to do with Shinano Ru."
Perhaps Nagato had previously complained about Shinano's sudden disappearance, but now she has realized that the other party was also helpless.
Nagato really couldn't blame the responsibility on Shinano, who was like his elder.
Shaking her head, Shinano said calmly: "The process is not important. The result is that I was imprisoned by the Sirens silently, causing Mikasa and you to suffer for a long time. Now we have to wait for the commander to save us."
"All of this is my sin, and now I have received retribution... But Nagato, you have done a good job. Compared to my suppression by force, you have truly reorganized the Sakura Empire.
"You are more suitable to be the flagship than I am in making that child Akagi convinced."
For Nagato, it doesn't matter whose approval he gets, but only Shinano's approval is special.
The long-term pressure and complaints poured out, and she finally couldn't hold back her tears. She bit her lip, ran to Shinano, hugged him, and burst into tears.
"I... I was so scared. I was so scared after I disappeared from Shinano. I was afraid that the Sakura Empire would disappear completely one day. After I took over as the flagship, I became even more scared."
Patting Nagato's little head, Shinano chuckled and comforted him, "It's okay, just cry it out."
"You don't have to be afraid now, Nagato. With me and the commander here, the pressure of the Sakura Empire is no longer just yours. We will share it with you."
"So Nagato just needs to cry, and the commander will take care of the rest."
Chapter 80 Call My Name Loudly
No matter how you look at it, it's too much to leave it to me. Listening to Shinano's words of comfort to Nagato, Xia Bai had many objections in his heart. He always felt that the big fox was in big trouble today.
With Nagato on the left and the other on the right, it was like a harem in Shinano. What was this? A Shura field between the commander and his juniors?
He admitted that he was jealous, jealous of the little fox Nagato.
Coughing a few times, Xia Bai interrupted the whispers between the foxes and said seriously: "I know you haven't seen each other for a long time, but you have to be clear about the purpose of our visit. The greetings can wait."
"Yes, yes, yes. I will chat with Nagato later. For now, I will give the power I have left here to the commander."
How could she not understand Xia Bai's thoughts? That expression almost separated her and Nagato. Everyone said that Akagi had a strong possessiveness, and judging from Shinano, Xia Bai's possessiveness was not weak either.
The long silver-gray hair fluttered, and a faint blue light butterfly appeared in Shinano's hand. The next second, the sea slowly split, forming a huge gap, cracks appeared in the sky, the galaxy turned upside down, and a dazzling blue crystal emerged from it.
With a wave of her little hand, the crystal automatically flew into Shinano's hand, and the sky and the sea returned to their original state.
"This is it. It is a crystal that has half of my power. Commander, just take it with you. The crystal will automatically enter your body."
After taking the blue crystal from Shinano, Xia Bai could see a butterfly-like pattern inside. For a moment, he didn't know where to start complaining.
He originally thought that the power left by Shinano was some kind of device, but he didn't expect it to be half of her own power. It felt like even the style of painting had changed.
"Excuse me, if I use this, will I gain the ability to observe the future?"
As if she was amused by Xia Bai's words, Shinano covered her mouth and said in a tender voice: "How is that possible? Commander, you think too much."
"This crystal can only expand mental power, and it has no effect on people with high mental power. I made it specifically for Nagato when I was observing the future."
"But half of your power has only this much effect, isn't it too..." Although Xia Bai felt very happy after intercepting Nagato, he felt that this crystal was really useless.
To put it bluntly, if Xia Bai didn't consume too much mental energy due to his ability, he wouldn't have to come to the "Yushen Gate" to get this thing.
Seeing Xia Bai's disdain for the crystal, Nagato spread his hands and said, "If you dislike it, then give it to me. Anyway, it was originally prepared for me by Shinano."
"Forget it, it's better to have something than nothing. This is something my wife from Shinano gave me. Nagato, go play with it."
He quickly put the crystal into his inner pocket, and before Xia Bai could continue to mock Nagato, the crystal turned into light particles and merged into his body.
Suddenly, Xia Bai felt that the mental oppression caused by the dream space disappeared, and there was no more dizziness and bloating. His mind was clear, and it seemed that his senses of the surroundings became clearer.
Seeing this, Shinano asked anxiously, "How is it? Has it greatly improved the commander's mental strength?"
To be honest, Shinano only judged that this thing was useful to Xia Bai, but she didn't know how useful it was.
Although she thought that with the "disabled" mental power of the Son of Prometheus, there should be a great improvement, but Xia Bai was somewhat different from others.
If there is no improvement, then the purpose of this trip is completely meaningless, and Xia Bai can only practice the multiple links on his own.
"Hmm... It seems to have improved a lot. I feel my mind is clearer, and my mental fluctuations can spread farther."
"Of course, the most important thing is that my mental strength is finally no longer exhausted. Just based on this point, I think your power crystal is very useful, Shinano."
Such a statement did not make Shinano put down her worries. After hesitating for a moment, she said seriously: "How about Commander try multiple links here? If it can be successfully launched, it means that the mental power has been qualitatively improved."
"Multiple links, right? Let me try." Nodding, Xia Bai connected RX-02 in his mind.
At this time, Shinano also pulled Nagato away and ran away. From the scenes she observed in the future, the multiple links were making quite a lot of noise, and if she stood too close, she might be affected.
A huge blue and white mecha appeared on the sea. Xia Bai found Sheffield among the Q-version figures in his mind, connected to her and suddenly had an idea. He stretched out his hand and shouted to the sky.
"Sheffield-san!"
The Q version of Sheffield in his mind showed disgust in his eyes and bent down slightly. At the same time, a mechanical sound came from the RX-02, and golden runes began to surround the fuselage.
"—The Divinity."
"Sirius-san!"
As always, Q version Sirius raised his greatsword, and scarlet mist filled the air behind RX-02.
"——Fate Sirius."
Xia Bai was a bit embarrassed about the last spot. He originally wanted to link to Kaga, but he couldn't think of the Q version of Miss Fat Dinosaur in his mind, so he had to take a step back and choose Kaga.
"Kaga-san!"
The Q version of Kaga shook his tail and threw aside the fox mask on his cheek. The blue fox fire burned fiercely in RX-02.
"——Tsukuyomi."
The mental powers of the three ship girls intertwined with Xia Bai's. Runes, mist, and flames of three different colors instantly enveloped the RX-02 and burst into a dreamy light.
Looking at the light rising into the sky in the distance, Nagato was secretly shocked by the aura it exuded, and asked: "Is this the so-called multiple links... What a terrifying energy."
"Yes." Nodding, Shinano said earnestly, "This is the real way to use the commander's abilities. What you saw before is just the tip of the iceberg."
"So Nagato, you must establish a spiritual link with the commander as soon as possible. Only you can lead the Sakura Empire to join forces and deploy the red mecha that creates and destroys everything."
"I know you still have many questions, Nagato. Just wait and see. After the Commander defeats Temperance, I will slowly answer them for you, just like when we were little."
"Well, I'll wait."
Holding Shinano's hand, there was no longer any fear or confusion in Nagato's eyes.
.........
“Ohhhhhhh, the power is pouring out of my body, it’s burning up!”
Feeling the blood boiling in his body and feeling the RX-02 undergoing extremely terrifying changes, Xia Bai clenched his right fist towards the sky and swung it out with force.
"Call my name loudly—"
Chapter 81: The flagship series needs to be revitalized
"Alas, the commander is sick again. Really, when will he calm down?"
Hearing Xia Bai's shouts from afar, coupled with that inexplicably childish action, Shinano shook his head and his words were full of helplessness towards Xia Bai.
"You are now the chief flagship, Nagato. I cannot accompany the commander during the day, so I will leave the care of the commander to you."
"Ah!? Why is it Wu? Isn't it good to let Shokaku take care of it? At worst, there is Akagi."
If I were to take care of the commander, wouldn't that mean I would become - a wife!
Nagato did feel that she got along well with Xia Bai and they had a very good relationship, but she felt that it was too fast for them to become each other's marriage ship.
Covering his slightly red cheeks, Nagato looked up and secretly glanced at Shinano, wanting to see what the other person was thinking.
But at this moment, Shinano frowned, her pretty face twisted a little, she gritted her teeth and said, "I asked Shokaku to take good care of the commander, but she turned around and took care of the bed, not taking me seriously at all."
"Akagi is the same. How could I not know what she thinks of the commander? They are just bullying me because I am imprisoned and cannot show up at this time."
The big fox had long been dissatisfied with Shokaku and the others. Sheffield was fine, after all, she was a member of the royal family, but these guys from the Sakura Empire were more hungry than each other, and they had eaten Xia Bai up while he was away.
You know, no matter in terms of status or first come first served, she was the first one in Shinano, even earlier than Sheffield.
But now, because he was locked up, he could only watch Xia Bai being toyed with and bullied by other ship girls. As the former flagship Shinano, how could he tolerate this?
The reason why he said this to Nagato was actually very simple, because the other party was from the headquarters flagship, and only the headquarters flagship deserved the best.
"Nagato, you must remember that you are the flagship of the Sakura Empire, so you should be the commander's legal wife. You cannot let others humiliate the commander."
"I cannot always accompany the commander, so you are the only one who can take on this important task."
Patting Nagato's little head, Shinano's eyes showed tenderness, and he said softly: "Do you understand?"
Looking into the other party's cobalt blue eyes, Nagato seemed to gain strength from them and nodded vigorously: "I understand. I will take good care of the commander."
"It is my duty to restore the glory of the flagship."
Two foxes, one big and one small, are fighting for the glory of the flagship at this moment. Their relationship is not just partners, sisters, mother and daughter... but comrades-in-arms. The sacred flagship connects the two closely together, and they will also fight for it.
Just as the two were discussing whether the flagship could be the commander's legal wife, the mechanical voice from Xia Bai's side sounded again.
"Warning, warning!"
"The spiritual connection cannot be matched, it is not the best match, and the connection is being reconnected..."
"Output reintegrating...integration failed."
As the mechanical sound announced the failure of multiple links, the light on the RX-02 became more and more dazzling. Just when Xia Bai was still wondering what would happen, the mecha suddenly made a strange "click" sound, and then it decomposed and exploded autonomously.
The shock wave generated by the self-explosion made Shinano and Nagato, who were far away, raise their arms to cover their eyes. When they opened their eyes again, they found that a huge hole was left on the sea surface where the RX-02 had been, and sea water was flowing into it.
The mecha is gone, and the person is gone too.
"Commander!" x2
With a cry of surprise, the two men immediately ran towards the puddle and pulled Xia Bai out when the sea water was about to submerge him.
"Commander, Commander, wake up!"
Shaking the unconscious Xia Bai, Nagato looked at Shinano with a pale face: "What should I do now? Has the commander already..."
At this time, Shinano was also pale. She really didn't know that multiple links would cause self-destruction. It was clearly possible to do so in the future she saw.
Shinano reached out and felt Xia Bai's breath. He was still breathing. Shinano was immediately relieved and said to Nagato: "The commander is still alive, but the RX-02 should have been destroyed in the explosion."
"I have never anticipated such a situation, and I have never seen such a scene in the future."
"It shouldn't be like this... Even if the mental power is insufficient, the connection will only be terminated. How could an explosion occur?"
Hearing Shinano's doubts, Nagato placed Xia Bai in his arms on the sea surface, thought for a moment and said, "Could it be the result of a conflict between different forces?"
"After all, Tsukuyomi, the God of Radiance, and the Wolf of Destiny represent three different ability systems, and I also think it's weird to mix gold, phantom blue, and scarlet."
Nagato's bold guess awakened Shinano. The two light cruisers of the Royal Navy and the aircraft carrier of Sakura Empire were linked together. It didn't seem right no matter how he thought about it. The mechanical voice mentioned the "best match" again.
In other words, multiple links also need to be divided among people, and cannot be linked randomly. God knows what is the "best match".
Anyway, Shinano estimated that with Xia Bai's personality, he would inevitably self-destruct in order to achieve the "best match".
