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

"She said you are a bad woman who acts only on rationality. If anyone in Sakura Empire would betray me, it would definitely be you, Amagi!" Pointing at Amagi's nose, Xia Bai said bluntly.

"This fox from Amagi is smart and capable, and extremely clever, but her heart is tied to the Sakura Empire. If something changes in the future and she has to choose between the commander and the Sakura Empire, she will most likely give up the commander for the sake of the Sakura Empire and sacrifice herself to prove her loyalty."

This is not made up, but Akagi's original words.

Xia Bai didn't really believe it at first, but seeing that Tiancheng still dared to talk about the three books and six ceremonies, and talked about interests all the time, he began to believe it.

There is no good or bad between rationality and sensibility. Xia Bai doesn't want all the Sakura Empire ship girls to tie their hearts to him, but Amagi's behavior does hurt his feelings.

Hearing this, Tiancheng was silent, not knowing how to refute for a moment. It turned out that the one who knew his sister best was his younger sister. Even though their relationship was not good now, she could still see through her heart.

The only 'home' that Amagi recognized was Sakura Empire. As long as Sakura Empire could continue to exist, she would give her all and try her best.

In fact, she didn't care who would be the chief flagship, as long as that person could lead Sakura Empire to glory. That was why she ignored their years of sisterhood and walked to Nagato's side.

A ship girl cannot serve two masters, so the commander is a little more important in Amagi's heart. As long as the other party can lead the Sakura Empire to glory, she will naturally devote her life to giving him advice.

And when the situation becomes so urgent that she needs to choose between the Sakura Empire and the commander... maybe she will really choose to keep the Sakura Empire as Akagi said, and then go to hell with the commander.

"She...Akagi is right, that's who I am. I'm sorry to disappoint my Lord."

"Then you are quite selfish. You can give up on me just for the sake of your own righteousness."

After hearing Xia Bai's sarcastic words, Tiancheng's face turned pale, his cherry lips opened and closed, but in the end he couldn't say anything. He just bowed and apologized again.

"I'm sorry, my Lord."

Waving his hand, Xia Bai glanced at him and said, "Forget it. I can't bear your worship. If you hold a grudge and use your intelligence, I, a fool, won't even know how I died."

He was really heartbroken. What kind of fox was this? Wasn't he working so hard just to give everyone a happy future?

But what did he get in the end? His sincerity was exchanged for false intentions... Oh, that's not right. Tiancheng was still willing to sacrifice himself to show his loyalty and go to hell with him.

Thinking in this way, except for a few people, maybe it's just wishful thinking for me to take over the Sakura Empire and make everyone happy. Most of the Sakura Empire's ship girls just think that this is more in line with their "interests".

......

No one knew what Xia Bai and Tiancheng talked about in the room, nor did anyone know how long they talked before they rested.

But the sleepless shipgirls could hear the sounds of breaking and crying coming from the dormitory of the Sakura Empire, as well as the faint mental fluctuations that represented sadness.

Chapter 180: Fox Strategist's old illness relapses, Commander Xia is troubled

The cold wind was howling, and snowflakes were falling from the gray sky, dyeing the entire White Eagle Port area pure white.

The cold winter did not bring desolation and loneliness to this port area that has stood on the sea for a long time. The laughter of the little ship girls could be heard from time to time, and they could be seen on the roads, beaches, and dormitories.

Perhaps in order to relax before the upcoming war, Bismarck, Enterprise and others did not stop them. Instead, they allowed the little ship girls to play around in the snow.

Children have their own happiness, and adults have their own worries.

No one knows why, but since coming to the White Eagle Port area, Tiancheng's old illness has relapsed. The condition that had been improving has worsened. He will start coughing after speaking two or three sentences, and even cough up blood from time to time.

Even though everyone asked Tiancheng to rest more during the meeting and give the results to her for review after they came out, the brown fox always shook his head to reject everyone's kindness and discussed the battle plan while sick.

Everyone knows that if she continues like this, her body will be ruined, but the situation for the man who was able to persuade her is even more complicated.

.......

Xia Bai was sick. Although it was not a serious illness that required bed rest, he was indeed sick.

Also from the day the personnel arrived, in addition to the tacitly known 'crying disorder', his mental power became disordered and various different symptoms appeared. Even though Akashi checked him repeatedly several times, he was unable to find out the exact cause.

At first, Enterprise and the others thought this was a joke. In their opinion, a man like Xia Bai would not be plagued by injuries. In their impression, Xia Bai should be energetic all the time, either criticizing this ship girl or participating in exercises to stretch his muscles.

But the fact is, like a joke, Xia Bai fell ill.

Although he could still be seen from time to time in the port area, his pale face and disordered mental fluctuations showed that he was in poor health.

During the preparations for the campaign, the key figure fell ill, which cast a shadow on the plan to attack the Solomon Line.

"That's all for today. Please go back and sort out the information."

Noticing that most people were distracted, Enterprise turned off the projection screen and ended the meeting. After putting away the documents on the table, he focused his attention on Amagi, who was coughing with a handkerchief covering his mouth.

"Ms. Amagi, the meeting will not take place tomorrow...you should take a day off."

After putting away the handle, Tiancheng forced a smile and asked with a weak breath, "You don't have to do this for me... ahem, the rest of the day is enough for rest."

"If we don't hurry up and come up with a plan, the Master... cough cough cough."

With a sigh, Qiye said with a complicated expression: "It's not just for you. We are all very tired from spending so much energy... Even Xia Bai and you are sick. If a third person appears, it will be even more difficult."

"Take a day off to rest and recuperate. The day after tomorrow we will discuss personnel division and fleet formation."

Patting Amagi on the shoulder, Enterprise left the meeting room with the documents.

Most of the things happening in the port area could not be hidden from her, the leader of the White Eagles. How could it be a coincidence that Xia Bai and Amagi fell ill on the same day? It was simply that a major situation occurred during the internal discussions of the Sakura Empire that day.

But the Sakura Empire's shipgirls were very secretive about this matter, and she, as an outsider, didn't know how to solve it. After much thought, she could only give Amagi a day off. Otherwise, given the current situation, this Sakura Empire strategist probably wouldn't be able to hold on for long.

Bismarck and Frederick the Great looked at Amagi meaningfully and then walked out of the conference room. They did learn a little about what happened there through the stupid New Jersey.

How can I put it? They are not the parties involved, so it is hard to tell who is right and who is wrong. It is admirable that Amagi is willing to burn his life for the Sakura Empire as a "martyr", but should Xia Bai bear all this?

The man's wish was simple and naive. He foolishly believed that ship girls were beautiful and innocent, and he had been fighting for it. Now that he has been hit hard, it would be a miracle if nothing went wrong.

Tiancheng only treats you as a tool to fulfill his own righteousness. Although not everyone can be a tool, and she is willing to die with the tool, she has never been sincere to others.

You, Xia Bai, are so stupid to think that you can be a good commander in Sakura Empire by exchanging sincerity for sincerity.

What kind of place is Sakura Empire? They worship the strong and are good at defeating the strong. As soon as Mikasa abdicated, she started fighting for the position of the chief flagship. Azur Lane, no, this is the most bizarre place among all the shipgirl organizations.

Don't be fooled by their iron-blooded and serious appearance. They are also scheming. If Bismarck were to stand in Tiancheng's position and make a choice, she would not choose the iron-blooded.

As long as a commander can join Iron Blood, it means that this person has been recognized by all Iron Blood ship girls and represents this camp.

If the Iron Blood is gone, you can recreate it with the Commander. If the Commander is gone, what's the point of you being willing to die with him? Can people be resurrected? What a joke.

Anyway, Bismarck himself felt that there was something wrong with Amagi's thinking.

Of course, this is none of their iron-blooded business, and she, Bismarck, is not interested in mediating between the two sides. She just needs to see how this good show ends, or... add fuel to the fire.

The Sakura Empire's fleet girl naturally didn't know about the little calculations of the Iron Bloods. After the people from other camps left, Akagi, with a sullen look on her face, said sarcastically, "Not bad, you can take a day off, my Lord Amagi."

"Enterprise is still very concerned about you. Why don't you take the Sakura Empire and merge it into the White Eagle Empire? She will definitely bring you the glorious Sakura Empire you want."

"I...cough cough cough."

Seeing Tiancheng being squeezed by the red fox and unable to speak, Changmen raised his eyebrows and shouted angrily: "Tiancheng is already like this, and you still want to provoke her."

Akagi shrugged his shoulders, crossed his arms, and continued in a sarcastic tone, "Oh, our flagship, Nagato-sama, is still angry. Why don't you join the White Eagles as well?"

"You two are together anyway, and he doesn't care about you... The little fox thinks the commander is just a weapon to save 'mother', and the big fox thinks the commander is just a tool to accomplish a greater good."

Putting his hands together, Akagi smiled and said, "It's a match made in heaven. Otherwise, please consider it."

"Are you kidding me?"

When it comes to talking skills, Nagato is no match for Akagi. He gets angry after just a few words and his face becomes very ugly.

"A joke?" Akagi's beautiful face showed a crazy smile with the corner of her mouth raised, and she gritted her teeth and said, "I don't think this is a joke... Whether it's the Sakura Empire, you guys, or that Shinano, they have nothing to do with me."

"The commander is the only one I care about. At most, I'll take Kaga with me. Who do you think you are?"

After all, the conflicts within the Sakura Empire were suppressed only because of Xia Bai's arrival. Now that Xia Bai has fallen, the long-standing resentment finally broke out.

Chapter 181 Scolding the Foxes

Since Xia Bai came to Sakura Empire, Akagi has given up a lot, including giving up the fight for the position of flagship, giving up the faction he founded, and even giving up the idea of ​​monopolizing his lover.

The truth of the world and the Solomon Line have nothing to do with her. The Red Fox just wants to live a sweet life with Xia Bai.

If Xia Bai hadn't wanted to do it, Chicheng wouldn't bother to waste time talking to the women of other camps. After the battle, she realized that only by being by the side of the person she loved could she guarantee his safety, and the rest of the guys were not reliable.

Besides, what kind of ship girl is Amagi? Doesn't her sister, who is also a fox, know this? On the surface, she looks gentle and considerate, with a unique temperament, but in fact, she is a very selfish person.

She is so selfish that she would hurt her sister's heart for the sake of Sakura Empire. She is so selfish that she would plot against the commander for the benefit of Sakura Empire. She is so selfish that it is scary.

It was because Akagi knew this that he tried to teach Xia Bai how to handle affairs very early on and told him not to completely delegate power to Amagi. However, Xia Bai was such a fool that he believed that all ship girls were good and that his own ship girls would never hurt him.

Just as what Befa said, if someone cheats and schemes without any malicious intent, he will definitely fall badly.

Fortunately, it is not too late now. Xia Bai was just shocked by the truth and began to doubt himself, otherwise Chicheng would have dared to tear his sister to pieces today.

Now that the conflict could no longer be suppressed, Akagi would no longer look at the other party in a good light, and gave a thumbs up and praised: "You are amazing, you are noble."

"You are only concerned about the interests of the Sakura Empire and you welcome back Shinano to strengthen its power. That's amazing and noble. I am different. Now I am just a fox who cares about her husband. I pale in comparison to you."

"After the battle, everyone praised the commander of the Sakura Empire for being a hero and a savior. But what does this have to do with the Sakura Empire? Aside from a few people who contributed, the others were hiding in the Mingyang Sea to clean up the Sirens."

"I used to wonder why Shokaku wanted to leave Sakura Empire so badly and run away with his beloved. It turns out that she is the smart one."

"I saw through you early on, and saw through the shadows hidden beneath the glamorous appearance of the Sakura Empire..."

She herself also said why Shokaku wanted to leave Sakura Empire at that time, but Shokaku's words were always 70% true and 30% false.

Now that they heard Akagi mention this, Nagato and Amagi's already ugly faces turned even paler. They wanted to refute but couldn't say anything.

I already felt guilty, so how could I dare to answer the angry red fox? There is no hatred without reason, nor is there love without reason. In the final analysis, the harmonious environment of the Sakura Empire was created intentionally.

Besides, Akagi believed that except for a few ship girls who truly fell in love with Xia Bai, the others simply thought that Xia Bai was too powerful, and seeing that the chief flagship Nagato recognized the commander, they also recognized him. Who knows what they really think?

As if he had vented his anger, Akagi's face calmed down and he said calmly, "If you like playing this game, you can play it by yourselves. I, Akagi, will not serve you anymore."

"She is nothing more than a tool to achieve her own goals. If you humble yourself and beg the company, she will definitely help you."

"......"

After releasing the handle on the door, Qiye looked very embarrassed and did not dare to push the door open. She came back to get the documents she had missed, but she did not expect to hear such a shocking thing.

This wasn't considered eavesdropping, she just happened to hear it.

Enterprise personally agreed with what Akagi said, but she always felt that things should not have turned out like this, and Amagi and Nagato were not as bad as they said.

Let’s not talk about Amagi for now. At least Nagato still often calls her to ask how Xia Bai is doing. The affection in the picture is sincere and it doesn’t seem like he treats the other person as a tool.

However, she was still an outsider and could not interfere in the internal affairs of Sakura Empire, so she could not defend Amagi and Nagato.

It was just that Akagi used herself as a means of attack, which made Enterprise very embarrassed, even though she had done nothing. It also caused her to be in a dilemma outside the door, not knowing whether to go in or not.

At this moment, the company's communication ring suddenly lit up. The content in it made her face change drastically. She didn't care about being embarrassed or not, and pushed the door open and walked into the meeting room.

Facing the gazes of the three foxes turning to her at the same time, she said in a deep voice: "I have bad news. You'd better go to the infirmary now."

Hearing this, Akagi's face turned pale. After glaring at Amagi and Nagato, he strode out of the meeting room.

......

Three hours ago.

Xia Bai, expressionless, wrapped in a cotton-padded jacket, sat on the rocks by the coast, staring blankly at the sea. After a long while, he spoke weakly, "Sheffield, I said I'm fine, you don't have to accompany me."

"Master is still as stubborn as ever, but Sheffield will not obey your orders."

"Is that so..." Turning his head to look at the worried maid, Xia Bai asked softly, "There is a saying that bitches are just hypocritical. What do you think?"

"Master, are you comparing yourself to a bitch?"

With a bitter smile on his face, Xia Bai lowered his head and said to himself: "Maybe, it's come to this point, I actually started to doubt myself and everything because of Tiancheng's words."

"I know I shouldn't think about it, but my mind always contains fictitious deceptions and lies. It is profitable for the ship girl to get close to me, and it is also profitable for me to get close to the ship girl."

"They were attracted by my great strength, and I also needed them to deploy powerful mechas for me... Now it seems that this is full of interests and it is not a pure matter at all."

"It's understandable that Tiancheng wanted to use me to achieve her own goals, and I shouldn't blame her. It was me who thought everything was too naive, and now I'm here complaining about everything."

Sheffield knew very well that Xia Bai was getting too obsessed with something. He fell into self-doubt because of Tiancheng's honesty. All the reasons for fighting were shattered because of Tiancheng's words "I am just this kind of person".

The master is stupid, and Tiancheng is also an idiot. He insists on speaking out his true feelings, even though he can just fool the master. With his master's character, he will definitely not think about these messed up things.

Now, both of them have become patients. One keeps coughing up blood, and the other's self-denying mental strength has affected himself. In addition to the physical reaction, he has also become psychologically afraid of the ship girl.

It's funny to say that Xia Bai, who obviously prefers Kanmusu, now no longer dares to contact Kanmusu except for a few. It's as if everything has returned to the original state... the timid state when he first came to the Royal Family.

Chapter 182 Red Axis

People will never remain unchanged.

It is certainly a forced change of mentality to sanctify and beautify the image of KanColle in one's heart. But what will happen when the truth of the facts punctures this series of beautiful wishes?

Continue to deceive yourself, continue to attach the meaning of battle to the ship girls, and continue to impose the beauty of the world on them.

Xia Bai didn't think Tiancheng was wrong, but felt that he was too selfish. He thought that after becoming the commander of a ship girl, the ship girl would focus all her attention on him and put him first.

But in fact, ship girls are not such simple creatures. They have their own emotions and thoughts, their own ideals and wishes. Even if there are shackles given by God to both parties, they cannot change these.

After all, many things are just Xia Bai's wishful thinking. Being too obsessed will only backfire. He cannot accept this fact for a while now.
