Even in the world of Kancolle, I want to drive a robot!

Seeing this, Xia Bai calmed everyone down and said softly, "Stop arguing. Listen to me first. There is a crucial issue in this battle..."

Before he could finish his words, Xia Bai's voice was interrupted and drowned out by the angry discussion of the crowd.

"Elizabeth, you were so eager to fight before, why are you so timid now?"

"I seek truth from facts. Exploring the New World is different from attacking the Solomon Line. Bismarck, don't try to confuse the concepts."

"Please listen to me..."

The voice was once again drowned out by the discussion, and no one noticed that Xia Bai looked like he had something to say.

"Weakling... I have already given up hope, yet you still call me that contemptuously... Let me see how powerful you are as a battleship H39."

"To be honest, if you want to see my ability, you can go to the training ground now. If you have no hope, please shut up and don't let us lose hope too."

'Snapped--'

A loud noise stopped the heated discussion among the ship girls, and they all turned their eyes to Xia Bai.

"Noisy, noisy, noisy, noisy, noisy is useless, can you come up with some feasible plans? You guys are the core figures of Azur Lane."

"Observer Zero is still watching. Do you like to make fun of her?"

He was already feeling bad because of being rejected by Ling-chan, and now they started quarreling again. Even Huten and Tirpitz wanted to fight. Could he please give him some peace of mind?

Perhaps it was because Xia Bai was scary when he was angry, or perhaps it was because of respect for his military power, after this scolding, the ship girls lowered their heads in silence.

"You guys who advocate that the faster the better, have you thought of a battle plan? Do you think that everything will be fine after I rush up and kill Enpress?"

"Didn't you hear Observer Zero say that this is a test for me and for you as well? Speed ​​is of the essence. They have already made all the arrangements. How can you catch the Siren off guard?"

"Bismarck, you are still thinking about your exploration of the new world. Can you be more rational?"

Seeing Xia Bai angrily scolding the ships and his strong aura making Bismarck seem to be suffocating, Hu Teng's mouth curled up slightly. After today, she was disappointed with Tiexue, and she was more convinced that she had made the right choice in choosing Xia Bai.

Unfortunately, Xia Bai happened to see Hu Teng's smile. He turned around and pointed at him, shouting, "What are you laughing at? It's so weird!"

"You think you're so awesome. Not only did you attack Tirpitz personally, but you also wanted to go to the training ground with her. Your status as a battleship H39 makes you look so awesome. Do you dare to fight me?"

The smile on his face disappeared, and Hutten turned to Tirpitz and bowed slightly.

"I'm sorry, what I said just now was too harsh."

People should have self-knowledge. To put it bluntly, she is not yet a member of Azur Lane. If she ridicules Tirpitz on the other party's territory, she might be put in a sack by the Iron-Blooded Ship Girl at night.

As for Xia Bai's gesture invitation, Hu Teng declined it. Firstly, it was meaningless, and secondly, being beaten really hurt.

Hu Teng's understanding reduced Xia Bai's anger. He nodded with satisfaction, "I understand how you feel. I also want to break through the Solomon Line of Defense as soon as possible and rescue Shinano."

"But we can't rush this matter. Observer Zero has made it clear that this is a test, so it will definitely be a difficult battle..."

As if he suddenly remembered something, Xia Bai paused, looked around and said earnestly: "Someone come and call Qiqi over. It's not a good idea for you to isolate her like this."

"We need to unite all the forces that can be united. Now is the time to put aside past grudges and prohibit discrimination within Azur Lane. Let's start with me."

No matter how rational Bismarck was, she was so angry that she trembled all over because of Xia Bai's shameless words. She knew that Xia Bai was targeting the enterprise, so she didn't call the other party. Why did it seem like she was the one to blame now?

But Bismarck's good manners made him resist the urge to curse. He signaled Prince Eugen with his eyes to contact the company, while he continued to listen to Xia Bai's "teachings" without changing his expression.

Soon, Qieji, with a complicated expression on her face, rushed to the meeting room, and everyone explained to her the whole story.

The more she listened, the more frightened she became. Did Tiexue have a device to travel through time and space? He invited Xia Bai to explore but was rejected?

The Siren leader just showed up? And he has a good relationship with Xia Bai? Now we are going to attack the Solomon Line to achieve a temporary peace?

Why do I just know these things? This is isolation, this must be isolation. You are forming a small group in the White Eagle’s territory. Is there any justice in this world?

Chapter 40 Substitutes will attract each other

After the meeting was over, Xia Bai sat alone in a chair sighing. Bismarck had gone a little crazy. It looked like she just wanted to quickly end the Solomon Line issue and then explore the new world.

I don’t know what good things there are that can make this iron-blooded prime minister who is known for his calmness become like this.

Xia Bai now wants to go back to Sakura Empire to call Amagi over. What everyone said makes sense. Without a military advisor, he really can't tell whether he should be radical or conservative.

"Alas... I don't know where Ajax has gone to again. It's annoying."

"As for Ajax, she should be with Miss 03 now."

The calm voice brought Xia Bai back to his senses from his complicated thoughts. He looked up and saw long silver hair coming into his eyes.

"Tirpitz, you haven't left yet?"

Being called Tirpitz, Enterprise showed an embarrassed expression, moved to sit on the chair next to Xia Bai, and corrected him in a low voice: "I am Enterprise, not Tirpitz."

It’s not that Xia Bai is blind, but these two people really look alike. He could still tell Bismarck apart because he has golden hair, but how could he tell them apart if they both have the same long silver hair?

Xia Bai shrugged his shoulders and put his legs on the conference table in front of him, secretly complaining about the hidden relationship between Bismarck and the company.

"How do you feel? Do you feel like your worldview has been impacted?"

"It's true that I feel powerless. As for my worldview, it was shattered long before I faced tolerance."

Xia Bai looked up at Qiye's calm answer. He looked up at the ceiling and said calmly, "Everyone feels powerless. After all, we have begun to explore the 'truth' of the world."

"That's right..." After hearing Xia Bai's words, Qiye clenched his hands slightly and also looked up at the ceiling.

"Xia Bai, how many enemies do you think we need to defeat before we can have peace?"

Judging from the emotions contained in her mental fluctuations, Enterprise seems to be very vulnerable now, but the authority of the "intimate big brother" will not be open to her.

"I don't know. I don't even know where the end of the universe is. How can I know this?"

“Just do good things and don’t worry about the future. I give this sentence to you, the enterprise, and also to myself.”

Feeling better, Enterprise took off his black windbreaker, leaned back in his chair and spoke out the question he had always wanted to figure out.

"Is it because of my mistake that Xia Bai started targeting Baiying because I joined the V plan?"

"..."

After a moment of silence, Xia Bai emotionally retorted, "Absolutely not. I have never targeted White Eagle or your company. Before the Tolerance War, I didn't even know you had joined Plan V."

"My ideal is to make everyone in Azur Lane love each other and live in harmony, and I work hard for this. Is there any villain who secretly said bad things about me in front of you, Enterprise?"

We can't just accuse people wrongly. Xia Bai dares to swear to heaven that he has never thought of targeting Bai Ying. It's just that others think he is targeting him. In fact, he is not that petty.

Can you blame him for Baiying's lagging behind in information? Donghuang and Tiexue both know this, but you don't. This is not because you didn't handle your interpersonal relationships well.

After getting Xia Bai's reply, Qiye let out a long sigh and relaxed a lot. Judging from his mental fluctuations, the other party did not lie.

"No one talked about it in front of me. I just felt it myself... But this feeling is wrong. Xia Bai is not such a petty person."

After saying that, the scene fell into an eerie silence, and both of them stared blankly at the ceiling, as if they were possessed by evil spirits.

If it was with other ship girls, even Essex, Xia Bai could find topics to talk about after finishing business, but Enterprise was a little embarrassed.

Being familiar or not is two different matters. Xia Bai couldn't find anything to talk about due to his own prejudice and the capable temperament of the other party. He could only look up at the ceiling to hide his embarrassment.

"Xia Bai, why are you still here... Eh!? What happened to your necks?"

After waiting outside for a long time and not seeing Xia Bai come out, New Jersey returned to the meeting room. As soon as he entered the room, he saw two people holding their heads high and staring at the ceiling.

Seeing this, New Jersey also raised his head curiously and muttered, "Is there something on the ceiling? Why can't I see it?"

New Jersey's appearance broke the deadlock. Xia Bai quickly stood up and walked to her side, saying anxiously, "You have something to tell me, let's find another place to talk."

"Oh, okay, let's go to the football field. It's wider there."

The door closed again, leaving Qiye alone inside sighing silently.

About ten minutes later, New Jersey dragged Xia Bai's arm to the open-air football field. It must be said that these facilities in the White Eagle Port area take care of many ship girls. The architectural style is simple and diverse, and it seems more human than the Sakura Empire and the Royal Navy.

When the two arrived at the football field, it was already crowded with ship girls, including those from the White Eagle, Iron Blood, and Royal Fleet. Xia Bai even saw Ajax and RX-03 in it.

What's going on here? A friendly football match?

With doubts, Xia Bai and New Jersey hurried forward to join in the fun, but were seen by the sharp-eyed Belfast.

Bringing with her a gust of fragrant wind, the head maid walked up to Xia Bai and said a few words in his ear with some embarrassment.

"What!? How dare you bully my Kewei? Where is she?!"

After learning from her that his fat dinosaur was bullied by the Iron-Blooded Ship Girl, Xia Bai couldn't help it and rolled up his sleeves to ask about the whereabouts of the Iron-Blooded Ship Girl.

Don't blame him for not giving face to Bismarck. Even Xia Bai himself was reluctant to say a few harsh words to Kewei, so how could he let outsiders bully him? He could even bully a cute ship girl like Kewei. It was simply insane.

Is it me, Xia Bai, who can no longer lift the knife, or is it you, the iron-blooded ones, who are the boss of this sea area? Go out and ask around.

Beifa had expected Xia Bai's move, and immediately explained softly: "Master, calm down, it's just a small conflict, and Kewei was not bullied. She was just competing with the iron-blooded Miss Peter Strasser."

"Speaking of which, this competition was proposed by Ke Wei himself..."

At this point, Befa was a little hesitant about whether to tell Xia Bai the reason, because the reason why Kewei wanted to compete with Peter was too ridiculous.

"She proposed it herself?"

This is not quite right. Although Kewei is a little rebellious and only appears to be a lady, she does not seem like the type of person who would actively provoke others. The only time she personally got involved in a fight was with Dafeng.

Could it be that...the fat dinosaur's violent gene has awakened?

Chapter 41 Nimi-chan's First Encounter with Dog Commander

There was no point in continuing to guess what disease Kewei had, so Xia Bai apologized to Xinze behind him and quickly squeezed into the group of ship girls.

"Give way."

"Sorry, give in."

Their interest in watching the fun was disturbed, and the ship girls looked unkindly at Xia Bai who was squeezing in the crowd, but after realizing who it was, they retracted their gazes and made way for him.

Although most people have never met Xia Bai, they still recognize this face. Not to mention Azur Lane, even the Takors government has his photo and spreads it widely, for fear that some blind person would anger the other party.

It can be said that now as long as Xia Bai appears anywhere in Takors, government officials will pay for whatever he consumes. This is not only a respect for his strength, but also a huge reputation after saving the world.

"Woo!"

Obviously, when everyone made way for Xia Bai, a young girl who was already joining in the fun was knocked to the ground by him.

Today was an unlucky day for Z23. Originally, Bismarck wanted to bring her along to the meeting between him and Xia Bai, but since no one showed up yesterday, Bismarck let Z23 go back and rest.

She overslept, and when Z23 hurried to the meeting room, Belfast at the door told her that the meeting had already started.

Thinking that he might be reprimanded by Bismarck afterwards if he forced his way in, Z23 could only wait at the door for others to come out. Not long after, he heard the White Eagle say that the Royal Navy and Iron Blood had a conflict.

After exchanging a glance with Befa, the two hurried to the scene of the incident. In the process of trying to stop the fight, they were also injured by accidental injury from the horrible dinosaur. The weight of the fat dinosaur almost broke her bones.

After finally getting the pain less severe thanks to Befa's simple bandage, he was knocked to the ground by Xia Bai again. He was angry but dared not say anything.

For Z23, who thinks she is ordinary, these are just part of her ordinary life on a ship. She has no special skills and a low sense of presence. There is nothing worthy of attention in either combat or daily life.

Even now she didn't know why Bismarck asked her to do the clerical work for Iron Blood.

She doesn’t have a weird personality, a body that’s too good to be true, or any incredible abilities...Z23 is just an ordinary, hard-working destroyer. Ordinary is everything about her.

Can ordinary people get the attention of those in power? The answer is yes.

Seeing a little ship girl being knocked to the ground by him and not getting up for a long time, Xia Bai half-knelt down and stretched out his hand, saying worriedly: "I was anxious, I'm sorry... Are you okay?"

The gentle voice made Z23's slight anger disappear. Looking up, the autumn wind was blowing the hair of the man in front of him. There was a gentle smile on his handsome face, and a little regret could be found if one looked closely.

The slim-fitting clothes show off the man's muscular body, which is as strong as if it was carved by a knife. His well-defined muscles can be vaguely seen. His eyebrows are sharp and his eyes are sharp, which makes him look very heroic.

The noisy sounds around seemed to have dissipated. From Z23's perspective, it seemed that only she and the man in front of her existed between heaven and earth.

Looking into his dark, deep eyes, Z23 lowered her head shyly, covered her beating chest, and said softly, "I, I'm fine, Mr. Xia Bai, go and do your thing."

"Are you really okay? I saw that you looked very uncomfortable just now." Looking at the petite and cute girl on the ground, Xia Bai scratched his face in confusion.

"Let me help you up first. It's not good to stay on the ground and catch a cold."

"Well... Actually, that's not necessary. I can do it myself."

"Are you that scared? What kind of monster am I in your eyes?"

Ignoring her refusal, Xia Bai held her round shoulders with one hand and her lower back with the other, gently lifted Z23 up from the ground, and carefully brushed the dust off her body.

"I'm sorry, I was in a hurry and didn't pay attention to the road... By the way, what's your name?"

"twenty three..."

"Hmm? What did you say?" Z23's barely audible voice made Xia Bai move closer to her.

Such an action made Z23's face turn red, and he replied in panic: "1936A 'Narvik' type destroyer Z23, Mr. Xia Bai, just call me Nimi."

Ruffling the other's short brown hair, Xia Bai said gently: "Nimi... I remember it."
