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

After smiling, Kewei looked into the distance and said with a little concern: "Because the commander has been acting strangely lately, often running to a corner by himself."

"You can't hide your mental fluctuations from us... Hehe~ The commander who is crying secretly in the corner is like a little child."

"However, I will not seek answers from the commander. After all, I am a housewife. If anything happens to your husband, I will just be there to comfort you."

"How is it? Is the commander moved by the awesomeness?"

Hearing Kewei flattering himself without blushing, Xia Bai's sadness disappeared a little, and he said unhappily: "You are still the stay-at-home wife type, Guanghui is okay, at least Lexington who just arrived today can also be considered."

"How can it be called terrible? It's really a waste of your ladylike appearance."

His face swelled up quickly like it was inflated. Kewei pinched Xia Bai's face and pulled it hard, saying angrily, "Okay, Kewei was kind enough to comfort the commander, but it's fine if you don't know what's good for you, but you even dared to ridicule me."

"Today I'll let you see how powerful I am, the fat dinosaur. Watch out!"

After saying that, Kewei pulled apart her legs wrapped in white silk stockings, focused her attention on her own "justice", and pressed it against Xia Bai's face, while she continued to mutter words of dissatisfaction, saying something like why she was not considered a housewife-type ship girl or something like that.

When Xia Bai was about to suffocate, he stood up and let him go, showing a victorious smile: "Hehe, let the commander talk nonsense, now you know how terrible it is."

Taking a deep breath of the cold air, Xia Bai said intermittently: "It is true, but you are not that type of ship girl, nor can you become a 'wife' type of wife."

"You are so willful and a little bit stubborn now, which is the kind of awe-inspiring person I like. So... don't change like Sirius does just to please me."

Her face suddenly turned red, and Kewei shyly played with her long ponytail, saying, "Do you really like this kind of Kewei... Commander, are you saying that on purpose to please me?"

"It's definitely not a flattery, this is my truest thought."

Gently hugging Kewei's waist, Xia Bai said with some emotion: "Actually, for me, it doesn't matter what you become. What matters is that I like you."

"From meeting each other to knowing each other, and finally to falling in love... the awe that I have seen is always like this, and the awe that I remember is also like this."

"If it suddenly changes, then the awesomeness I like, the awesomeness I love... is it really awesome?"

Xia Bai doesn't want the ship girls to change just to please him. If everyone is like Sirius, he will be very uncomfortable.

Besides, he always felt that he might have forgotten something, which was why he had such strange emotions recently, so he wanted to imprint the current character and appearance of the ship girl deeply in his mind.

When you think of the terrible, you know that it is a fat dinosaur pretending to be a lady. When you think of the glorious, you know that it is a gentle and holy angel.

Only in this way, perhaps we will not continue to forget.

Seeing Xia Bai's anxious expression, Kewei felt very uncomfortable. She wanted to tell him the whole story.

Why did 03 specifically warn her, why did the commander leave such a backup plan, and who was he guarding against? She knew all of this was too terrifying, but she knew that the man she loved was in pain now.

But reason quickly suppressed this thought. Why did Xia Bai let 03 remember that he had forgotten without any "resistance"? There must be a reason for this.

Kewei was not a particularly smart man, and he could not figure out the reasons for a moment. He was hesitant to speak, and hugged Xia Bai, putting his head on his shoulder, choosing to be sad with him. He couldn't help but feel a little more resentful towards Shinano in his heart.

The former is fine, after all, we don’t know whether the other party is alive or dead, and we are in a dilemma.

But there must be a third time. Shinano has modified Xia Bai's cognitive memory twice. If the other party does it again, she will definitely eat the fox.

Chapter 168 True Five Sects Besiege Guangmingding

In the evening, the silver-white port area was reflected by the red sunset. The winter sun was not warm, and the occasional stars twinkled in the night sky, which looked eerie and lonely.

The port area was not lively at this time. The Iron Blood Ship Girls stayed indoors and the White Eagle Ship Girls were mostly in their rooms. Only the two faction leaders came to the place where the passage of space was opened by Kuang Rong to welcome their upcoming companions.

Originally they were planning to hold a grand welcoming ceremony and a welcoming banquet. After all, this was the first time in some time that the leaders of the four major camps had gathered in Azur Lane, and what they were discussing was the biggest battle since the establishment of Azur Lane.

But this plan was rejected by Xia Bai alone, because he thought it was unnecessary. There were already enough people coming, and it would be crowded if the White Eagle and the Iron Blood Ship Girl came to welcome them. Besides, there was no point in doing so much superficial work, and everything could be kept simple.

As a result, the venue that should have been bustling with people was only crowded with a few people. Apart from the royal family led by Elizabeth, only Xia Bai, 03 and the two camp leaders were there.

As for the Sakura Empire's ship girls in the White Eagle Port area, only two good girls, Ayanami and Jiang Feng, came, and no one knew what the other three carriers were doing secretly.

"Is Shiro still wondering why Akagi and the others didn't come?"

Nodding, Xia Bai did not deny it, and replied with mixed feelings: "Yes, Akagi had already reconciled with Nagato when they were on Sakura Island. I don't know why it has become like this now."

"No matter how much I called her, she just wouldn't come, and she wouldn't allow Kaga and Daiho to come."

After thinking for a while, RX-03 excused Akagi: "Maybe she is not feeling well, and Kaga and Taihou are busy taking care of Akagi and can't spare time... As the air commander of the Sakura Empire, she will show up at the next meeting."

After careful consideration, RX-03 decided to use the method of maneuvering, dividing and suppressing to achieve his goal of becoming the legal wife, and Akagi was an object that could be won over.

Although Red Fox was also eyeing the position of legal wife, RX-03 knew Lexington better than Lexington, who showed great interest in the secretary ship as soon as he appeared.

What's more, there is Observer Zero, the Siren leader whose depth is hard to figure out, so 03 chose Akagi, who is easier to understand, as the target to be won over.

"Why are you looking at me like that? I'm so shy." 03 noticed that there was something wrong with Xia Bai's gaze towards him, so he held his face with his hands and pretended to be shy.

"Well... you are also a strange guy. You were at odds with Akagi before, but now you speak for her."

"A woman's heart is like a needle in the sea, and it's hard to figure it out." Shaking his head, Xia Bai turned his gaze back to the crack in the open space.

This strange ability always feels a bit strange. Even if the power of the machine god can break the space and create such a crack, Xia Bai can't transform the space crack into a channel like Enpres and Tolerance.

He also asked Kuanrong what the principle was and whether he could learn it, but Kuan’s words were full of scientific numbers. It was obvious that she only chopped the sword and the crack appeared. She was just using pseudoscience to fool him.

Just as Xia Bai was daydreaming, the crack suddenly began to expand, a light blue halo emanated from it, and a figure slowly emerged.

Walking out of the crack, the figure looked behind him and then at Elizabeth in front of him, and exclaimed in surprise: "Hey, I'm the first one!"

Then he placed one arm across his chest and saluted towards Elizabeth who was holding the scepter: "Your Majesty, long time no see."

Elizabeth suppressed her inner sorrow and stomped her scepter heavily on the ground, saying, "Long time no see, my trusted knight commander."

That’s right, the first person to arrive at the White Eagle Port area was the dashing royal foodie and leader of the Knights, King George V.

For Befa and the others, being away from home for a long time was nothing special, but for Elizabeth, who seldom went out, this trip was long enough.

Of course, although Elizabeth did nothing but play when she came to Takors, did not fight tolerance, nor did she participate in the dress-up battle, she still felt that she had worked hard.

Although she was only here for a trip to Takors, the series of events that happened made the petite Queen very upset and she missed her subjects very much. If she hadn't found a playmate named Rongrong recently, she would have asked Xia Bai to drive the Mecha God to take her back to the royal family.

Before the two could express their true feelings to each other, the blue halo flashed again, and a short fox slowly walked out from the crack.

"Um...excuse me, this is probably the first meeting since I took over as the flagship of the Sakura Empire."

Seeing the Sakura Empire flagship arrive, Bismarck and Enterprise looked at each other and nodded to greet her. They hadn't noticed it during the video call before, but now that they finally saw her in person, they couldn't help but sigh that she was really small.

Since Nagato appeared, the speed of the cracks seemed to increase, the blue halo kept flashing, and soon the open space was crowded with densely packed ship girls, and the originally quiet environment became lively.

Seeing a girl with long hair in the fleet, Xia Bai wiped his eyes and whispered, "03, pinch my arm."

"Why? Bai, are you sick again?"

Shaking his head, Xia Bai pointed at the group of ship girls with a strange expression: "No, I always feel that there is something wrong with my eyesight... Can you see a ship girl wearing a cheongsam over there?"

Looking at the direction Xia Bai pointed, RX-03 said helplessly, "I know she's pretty, but that's no reason for you to be shocked. What's wrong with her wearing a cheongsam? Do you really think you're Chinese?"

"I noticed that your intelligence has decreased recently. I wonder if you have noticed it yourself, 03." After complaining about 03's strange thinking, Xia Bai said slowly, "Look carefully, that is the leader of Donghuang, Yixian."

"Since she's here, the Donghuang shipgirls will definitely be there... The five major sects besieging Guangmingding? Interesting."

Xia Bai would definitely agree with Donghuang's desire to get involved in the Solomon defense line. After all, they were all colleagues of Azur Lane. If the other party was willing to help, there was no reason to refuse.

"The five major sects besieged Guangmingding...Bai, are you referring to Guangmingding, myself or the Solomon Line? If I remember correctly, three books and six ceremonies."

Hearing this, Xia Bai's face changed, thinking that something was wrong. 03's words made sense. It was possible that he was the one under siege at Guangmingding. What if Yixian was asking him this? He still didn't know which three books and six ceremonies were.

Thinking of this, Xia Bai couldn't help but steal a glance at Yixian in the distance. At this time, the other party also turned his head and met his gaze, revealing an intriguing smile.

Chapter 169: Xianghe: I'm anxious, I'm really anxious

All separations in the world are for better reunions.

Shokaku has always believed in this sentence, so she doesn't want to capture the commander like her predecessors did. She endured for so long in the Sakura Empire just to express her feelings to Xia Bai when they meet again.

Now that the time is ripe, they have successfully arrived at the White Eagle Port area. The reunion should have been a happy thing, but the person who appeared on the field made Shokaku not happy. The longing and deep feelings he had disappeared.

Because she saw Lexington not far behind Xia Bai, not the one with White Eagle, but the one with Huan Meng.

Coral Sea has only one wife. Although his companions from the Sakura Empire used this sentence to tease him, Shokaku never cared. The reason was naturally that White Eagle's Lexington was not good enough. Although he was gentle and considerate, he cared too much about Saratoga.

This alone was not enough to compete with her, Shokaku, for the title of wife. So Shokaku had always scoffed at such statements until... she met the adorable Lexington.

As we all know, Azur Lane was established earlier, and so was Phantom Flame. As one of the five carrier battles of Sakura Empire, Shokaku was born at a similar time to the other.

During a defensive battle against the Siren, the two met. As soon as he saw each other, Xianghe felt an instinctive hostility.

The two have similar personalities, gentle and virtuous, soft on the outside but strong on the inside, especially with a bit of a dark side in their personalities. With these similar traits, Shokaku immediately determined that the cute and illusory Lexington was her biggest enemy in her pursuit of happiness.

However, the two of them were allies at the time, so there was no quarrel. Shokaku just mentioned it to Akagi and the others after he returned.

As the Sirens' attacks became more and more fierce, Azur Lane launched more and more joint attacks with other ship girls organizations and the naval bases. Shokaku had always disliked them, and their hostility grew as they got along for a long time.

It was fine before. Although the two of them were competing secretly, they didn't have a commander, so a few sarcastic remarks to each other were enough to cause a big trouble.

Originally, after Shokaku had found his own happiness, he had planned to end the hostility between him and Lexington, but now it seemed that the fight for the 'wife' would continue.

"Sister, that's Shokaku from Sakura Empire, right? Look at her eyes...she seems to want to eat you up." As if frightened by Shokaku's gloomy expression, Saratoga hid behind Lexington.

"Humph, it's just Cricket Xianghe. Now that things have come to this, do you think I would be afraid of her?"

Contrary to her usual gentleness, when she saw Shokaku, Lexington became strong and her aura of a queen was fully revealed.

"But we are always wrong." The little hand muttered, and Saratoga counted on her fingers, "Sister, think about it, Shokaku is the former, and we are the latter, right?"

"The tactics we used were rather despicable. Sister, you haven't even met the commander many times. You just decided to marry him after you were rescued."

"Besides, the relationship between my sister and the commander won't be as deep as the relationship between my sister and the commander..."

Giving Saratoga a fierce glare, Lexington flicked his hair and interrupted unhappily, "Who said last time that we were going to attack the White Eagle Port Area and break through the Azure Lane?"

"Why do you only boost others' ambitions and destroy your own prestige? Believe me, sister, Cricket Flying Crane is nothing to worry about."

"That big white bird, come one and I'll pinch one." Having said that, Lexington stretched out his white palm and clenched it towards Xianghe.

After hesitating for a moment, Saratoga reminded in a low voice: "Sister, you are thinking too much. This is Azur Lane. If we are beaten by the ship girls of Shokaku and Sakura Empire, no one will help us."

"Don't worry, I know Shokaku very well. If she wants to cause trouble for us, she will definitely bring Zuikaku with her... Jiajia, do you have the confidence to defeat Zuikaku?"

Recalling Zuikaku's performance on the battlefield, Saratoga's face turned pale and she replied awkwardly: "I may not be her opponent in combat. After all, she is an aircraft carrier that can chop shells with a knife..."

"But I can definitely beat that stupid guy in other aspects."

"That's good, let us sisters see how powerful the Fifth Carrier is."

With a fighting spirit burning in his gentle eyes, Lexington found Shokaku in the dark crowd and locked eyes with her, intense sparks ignited between the two.

"King George V of the Royal Family, War-weary... Nagato of the Sakura Empire, Amagi... and Yixian and Zhenhai of the Eastern Glory will stay. The rest of you should follow Belfast to your rooms first."

When Xia Bai's order was given, the ship girls who were not named did not ask the reason, and followed Belfa, Dido and other maids to the dormitory area.

Soon, the originally crowded open space was reduced to just a few people.

Stopping Tiancheng and Nagato from stepping forward to pay their respects, Xia Bai said helplessly, "Forget it. I've told you so many times that you don't need to worry about these formalities when facing me."

With a gentle smile on his face, Tiancheng said softly: "The Lord is gentle and compassionate, but we must abide by certain etiquette, otherwise if outsiders see us, they will say that we are all people who eat raw meat and drink blood and are ignorant of the ways of the world."

"Hehe, Tiancheng, who are you secretly mocking again?" With a sneer, Xia Bai waved his hand and didn't intend to continue asking.

"Forget it, I'll have to trouble you guys from now on, let's go to the meeting room first."

Tiancheng naturally understood what Xia Bai meant. Since they had already arrived, the time could be fully utilized.

Attacking the Solomon Line is a battle of such magnitude that the results cannot be reached in just one or two days, so we can discuss some matters concerning the Solomon Line tonight so that we can proceed step by step.

"The Lord's orders must be obeyed."

Afterwards, the group did not continue discussing here and quickly went to the office building in the center of White Eagle Port Area.

On the way, Nagato, who was riding on the fox again, seemed somewhat happy, while counselors such as Amagi and Ajax had serious expressions. In comparison, King George V seemed very relaxed, and even took out a box from the ship's space, walked to Xia Bai and quietly handed it to him.

Seeing that no one else noticed him, Xia Bai secretly put the box into his arms and asked in a low voice: "What is this? Do you want to bribe me?"

"These are cookies that Hao baked himself. He told me to bring them to you as a reunion gift."

"So they are Hao-baked cookies. I thought they were red-tipped cookies... Qiao Wu, please tell her a message for me, thanking her for her kindness."

After hesitating for a moment, King George V whispered, "In fact, there is more than that. Wales also asked me to bring you something, but it was too bloody, so I disposed of it without authorization."

"Xia Bai, be careful with Wales. She still holds a grudge against you and War-Wan for the match-fixing incident."

"?"

Chapter 170: Throwing Bricks to Inspire Others

Xia Bai wanted to continue talking to King George V, but the ship girl was very fast. Soon, everyone arrived at the meeting room in the office building.

Just as RX-03 had excused himself, Akagi, who had not gone to greet them, had indeed arrived at the conference room in advance and was chatting with the iron-blooded Prince Eugen and others.

After seeing Nagato and Amagi, with a playful smile on his face, he slowly stood up and saluted, saying, "I was not feeling well and did not go to greet them. Lord Nagato should not mind Akagi's disrespect."

"It's okay... Akagi is the air commander of our Sakura Empire. You don't have to bear the pain of coming to greet me." Nodding, Nagato seemed not to understand Akagi's sarcasm. He rolled off the fox and sat on the chair in front of the long table.
