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

As soon as she opened the door, Shokaku screamed, and she was frightened by the situation in front of her.

The pale-faced Xia Bai was carried on Kaohsiung's back, with gauze wrapped around his arm and his clothes stained red with blood. Atago, Maya and Toriumi were also following beside him.

"First...let us in first."

After hearing this, Xianghe calmed down, helped Kaohsiung to lift Xia Bai down, and together with her, carried Xia Bai to the sofa in the living room.

Disassembling, cleaning, disinfecting... After being busy for a while, Shokaku finally had some free time. He looked at the four Kaohsiung sisters carrying large and small bags and said, "Commander... What is this?"

"Didn't you receive the message TB sent just now? I accidentally deployed the God of Radiance and destroyed the Kaohsiung family."

"Before Akashi wakes up, the four of them will temporarily live with me... The God of Radiance is so unlucky, his hands always get cut off."

Listening to Xia Bai's complaints, Xianghe looked at the four Kaohsiung sisters who had been silent with a vigilant look, and labeled them in his heart.

Kaohsiung will only serve Nagato and cannot be a loyal minister, so he poses no threat.

Atago was an opponent that he had originally taken very seriously, but unexpectedly, she had no interest in the commander and posed no threat.

Maya, on the other hand, has a poor figure, and looks almost like a kept woman compared to the others in Kaohsiung's class. She does not understand the relationship between men and women, and is a middle school student, so she poses no threat.

As for Toriumi, judging from her personality and appearance alone, she is very likely to become a "cat that steals fish", and her JK-like outfit is also in line with the commander's XP, which can be seen from Noshiro.

But if she really wants to do this, she has to get through Akagi first. There's no need to worry about it. There's no threat.

A smile suddenly appeared on her face. Shokaku helped them take the daily necessities from their hands and said with a hostess's attitude: "So that's how it is. My commander is like this, impatient and irritable."

"I'm so sorry to trouble you. Just treat this place as your own home and live well. You're welcome."

There was nothing wrong with this at first glance, but Keai Dang was just uncomfortable. Who was she showing this attitude to? Wasn't it just a few steps ahead? Why was she still pretending? She immediately retorted: "Haha~ Sister, of course I won't be polite, and you don't have to apologize. I'm happy now."

"Being able to live with Xiao Xiabai is something I have always dreamed of..."

"Atago! Watch your words!" Kaohsiung interrupted his sister. She felt a little uncomfortable after hearing what Shokaku said, but because of her identity as a samurai, she did not retort like Atago.

He just continued gloomily, "I'm sorry to bother you, Shokaku, during the time you're staying at the commander's house."

"No trouble, no trouble." Waving his hand, Xianghe led the four people upstairs to put their belongings, and he had some doubts in his heart.

Xiao Xiabai? Commander? Could it be that these two really wanted to cheat on me, and that everything that happened today was planned by them?

It's no wonder that Xianghe had such wild thoughts. Kaohsiung had some physical intimacy with Xia Bai on the deck, and it was very likely that some sparks would fly when he was Xia Bai's kendo teacher.

However, Atago's address was too subtle, and coupled with her title of 'old driver', Shokaku's originally dispelled vigilance rose again.

After helping the four people choose and clean up the room, Xianghe walked into the living room and sat next to Xia Bai, while the other four people also sat on the sofa in turn.

"Commander, are you feeling better?"

"Fortunately, the wound was bandaged quickly, otherwise it would have healed on its own."

"..."

After telling a joke, Xia Bai was about to ask the others if it was funny, but he noticed that the five people had complicated expressions, so he cleared his throat and said, "You all know that I am the son of Prometheus who can fight the Sirens for hundreds of rounds even with a big hole in my chest."

"This minor injury can be repaired with some supplies."

"Big hole? How big is it? As big as my breasts..." As if she heard some words, Atago immediately wanted to tell some dirty jokes, but before she could finish, Kaohsiung slapped her on the head.

With tears in her eyes, she held her head with a look of aggrieved expression. It was too much. She hadn't finished her dirty jokes yet. Then she rolled her eyes and thought that since she was living with Xia Bai, she would have plenty of opportunities to make dirty jokes in the future.

Xia Bai ignored Atago's shocking words. He knew that the more he paid attention to the other party, the more excited he would be.

"...So I just want to ask, can anyone lend me some supplies, preferably more, so I can build the legs of RX-02."

Hearing this, Kaohsiung was the first to react. He took out a few quaint boxes from the ship's space and said, "These are the supplies that Kaohsiung has saved over the years. I am now offering them all to you. I hope they can help the commander's injuries."

With a few "clicks", the secret buckle of the box was opened, and the shining, attractive red tip emanated a beautiful light from it.

"This...this is not good."

Xia Bai had never realized that Kaohsiung was actually a rich woman. She even had several boxes of Red Snake tobacco. She estimated that 8000 Red Snake tobacco would not be a small amount. It was really scary.

"Supplies are nothing more than my own possessions. Kaohsiung just needs to keep replenishing them. Commander, please don't refuse."

Like King George V, she had the habit of "hamstering". George V saved money and hoarded red spikes for his future commander and as a dowry for himself.

Kaohsiung doesn't need these. She doesn't have any special hobbies. She is just a warrior. After so many years of fighting, she has never used supplies except to replenish the energy of her own ship.

Now Xia Bai has taken a great advantage and made a fortune.

Chapter 36 Akagi: Shokaku will die!

After thinking for a long time, Xia Bai finally accepted Kaohsiung's kindness. He thought that he could always have too much free money. Besides, he was not going to use the money for a life of debauchery, but for serious work.

But his spine was still filled with guilt...

Using the ship's space to store the red tip, Xia Bai stretched out his intact left hand and said, "We are all familiar with it, but we still have to go through the ceremony."

"Welcome to join my fleet. With your joining, Kaohsiung, I believe our strength will be further enhanced."

Seeing the bright smile on Xia Bai's face, Kaohsiung hesitated for a moment and then held his hand.

"It is my honor... From now on, I will wield this sword only for the commander and justice!"

Suddenly, the spiritual power of the two people rose up on their own and continued to merge together.

"This is!?"

With a soft cry, Shokaku covered his mouth with both hands.

A low-probability event occurs with a high probability, just like when she and Xia Bai established a spiritual connection, Kaohsiung's spiritual power also began to identify and establish a spiritual connection with Xia Bai on its own.

"That doesn't make sense. How can a spiritual connection be established without matching each other's minds? Or does Sister Kaohsiung really love Xiao Xiabai? And I just haven't realized it yet?"

Recalling Kaohsiung's estrus symptoms, Atago was probably sure that it was both.

Perhaps, there are still more unknown areas in the mystery of ship girls, commanders, and mental power for people to explore.

"Excitement and joy... Is this the meaning of Commander..."

After the mental link was established, Kaohsiung leaned against his chest and muttered to himself with confusion in his eyes.

The inner fulfillment and the sense of security brought by the commander... So this is the reality that we, the ship girls, are pursuing.

It was just the difference between one second and the next, but Kaohsiung felt like the whole world had changed.

Now she believed that as long as Xia Bai was still there, no matter how difficult the battle was, no matter how wounded and miserable she was, she could overcome it and return to his side.

"Well...sister also wants to join Xia Bai's fleet!"

Shouting enviously, Atago forced her way between the two, interrupting their eye contact.

"Come quickly, Xiao Xiabai, my sister's spiritual power also wants to 'combine' with you... It hurts!"

Halfway through her dirty joke, Kaohsiung, who had come to his senses, hit her hard on the head, and pulled her aside and scolded her, "There are so many people watching, Atago, be more careful with your words!"

At this time, Xia Bai tried to smooth things over and said, "Forget it. Kaohsiung, you should know very well what Atago is like. If she could change, she would have changed long ago."

"Just ignore her. Now I will tell you about the current situation of the fleet."

Kaohsiung let go of the hand that was pinching Atago's ear, and just as Xia Bai said, he ignored Atago and sat up straight, ready to remember what Xia Bai would say next.

"This has to start with the development of the situation. Because of RX-03's suggestion, I will act alone in the world and establish a tutelary fort... By the way, Kaohsiung, are you good at planning and analysis?"

Halfway through the conversation, Xia Bai changed the subject and talked about this aspect, because he recently felt that his dual-core drive external brain was not enough, and wanted to try a triple-core drive.

It is said that during the time I spent with Kaohsiung, I didn't realize that she was a smart ship girl, but what if she knows everything but just hides it better on the outside?

Don't judge a book by its cover, Xia Bai knows the meaning of this sentence very well.

Seeing Xia Bai's expectant look, Kaohsiung slowly lowered his head and said embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, Commander, I'm not very good at this."

"If the fleet needs someone who can truly control the overall situation and give advice... Lord Amagi is the only one in the Sakura Empire who can do it."

Tiancheng? I think I heard Ajax mention it before.

Remembering the name in his heart, Xia Bai was too disappointed. He coughed and continued, "No need to apologize. I was just asking. Don't worry about it, Kaohsiung."

"Just now we mentioned the establishment of a tutelary fort. The purpose of this is..."

'boom--'

Just as they began to talk, they were interrupted by the sound of the courtyard gate collapsing. Before they could get up to check, a ball of 'fox fire' rushed in, and the sound followed the people.

"Shokaku, die!"

"..."

As soon as she entered the living room, Akagi found that six people were looking at her inexplicably, especially Xia Bai's strange eyes, which made her feel embarrassed.

Akagi burned the naginata in his hand into ashes with fox fire and clapped his hands. Just like the face-changing in Sichuan Opera, his originally ferocious and angry facial expression suddenly turned into gentle and peaceful.

"Why is everyone here? Is it a party at my dear's house?"

She had investigated Xia Bai's movements very clearly because she had calculated that he was currently studying kendo in Kaohsiung, and there was a high probability that Shokaku was preparing dinner at Xia Bai's house at this time.

That's why Akagi came over ready to beat Shokaku up. At most she would admit her mistake to Xia Bai after beating him up. But today she had to vent her anger.

But who would have thought that Xia Bai was at home at this time.

I have to say, Akagi has a difficult time. Every time she gets so angry at Shokaku that she wants to fight, Xia Bai stops her and tells her to be harmonious.

Although Xia Bai would talk to Shokaku later and ask her not to tease Akagi, Shokaku listened to it, but whether he agreed in his heart was another matter.

Ultimately, the bond is not strong enough. If Akagi was the first to meet Xia Bai and became his ship girl, would things turn out like this?

Having made up his mind to move in here, Akagi quickly walked to Xia Bai's side and pushed Shokaku away with his nine tails.

"Dear, how are you injured? Do you need Akagi's loving care?"

Being thick-skinned is different. Akagi completely forgot about his own embarrassment and started to worry about Xia Bai.

"No need." Rejecting Akagi's suggestion, Xia Bai ignored her pretending to be sad and continued, "I was explaining the current situation of our fleet to Kaohsiung... Since you are here, I just want to talk to you."

"TB."

Following Xia Bai's call, the cute TB was projected from the communication bracelet, looked at the surrounding ship girls, and said expressionlessly: "Commander, what's the matter?"

"Sort out the information I put in the communication ring." After giving the order, Xia Bai pointed at TB and said, "This is the artificial intelligence that was born from RX-02 yesterday. She will add to what I say next."

The four Kaohsiung-class sisters knew about the existence of TB because Xia Bai asked her to pass the news to Shokaku.

But Akagi and Shokaku were completely unaware of this. With their pale skin and short silver hair...it was hard not to think of them as Sirens because of their looks.

However, since the commander said that the other party was an artificial intelligence born from mecha, they temporarily let down their guard and focused on Xia Bai's fleet description.

Chapter 37 First Meeting

"Based on this, what do you think?"

After explaining the fleet's situation and all the information he knew, Xia Bai drank the tea in his hand and waited for others to speak.

"..."

Seeing that everyone had fallen silent, Xia Bai said in surprise: "No way, we finally get to sit down and talk about this, and you don't have any ideas at all?"

"..."

"Akagi, you don't have any ideas either?"

This was his signal for Akagi to start the discussion first, otherwise it would be awkward if he talked a lot and no one responded.

"My dear, how many things have you hidden from us? It turns out that the Siren is not our mortal enemy, but someone else is the real enemy. This is too..."

“It’s incredible, isn’t it?”

Xia Bai saw the disbelief on Akagi's face. He shrugged and continued, "This is what Shinano and I came up with after analyzing it. Although it's a little surprising, it's very likely to be the case."

"There are only two reasons to come to this conclusion, the existence of the embers, and—"

Having said this, Xia Bai deliberately dragged out his tone to keep the other person in suspense, thus whetting the appetite of others.

"The production of the supreme series of weapons."

This remark woke the four people up, and they immediately understood the meaning of Xia Baihua. Only Maya and Toriumi, who had not participated in the battle with Qian Gong, had blank eyes, not knowing what this meant.

What is the Supreme? Why do you all understand it? Who am I? Where am I?

"Even though they have the power that cannot resist us, they created such a combat weapon...how humble." Akagi clenched his hands tightly while muttering to himself.

Even though she and Kaga burned up all of Qian Gong's floating weapons, the opponent's move that changed the world was still deeply imprinted in her mind.

"That's right. Why did the Siren create a series of supreme weapons when facing us who can be destroyed at will? The reason can only be that there are other enemies that cannot communicate."

"Humility is what the Siren uses to prepare for them, haha."

Laughing at himself, Shokaku continued, "We should have discovered this long ago since the appearance of the Siren of Wisdom. Whether it's Tester Alpha or the Tempalans the Commander has met, they don't seem to be that hostile to us."
