Comprehensive Comics KanColle: Building a Dimensional Empire from Scratch.

Lu Chen stood up and clenched his fists.

He now feels as if he has endless energy, all his fatigue has been swept away, and he is many times healthier than his previous body as a poor office worker.

"The Mind Cube is considered an energy supply device. It's normal for your strength to increase after absorbing it."

Befa replied.

"You mean I swallowed a reactor?"

"You can understand it that way, but the Mind Cube will also enhance the structural strength of the receptor. Theoretically, you should have a similar ability to withstand blows as us..."

The head maid's expression became increasingly strange.

"?"

Lu Chen was stunned for a moment.

The same physical strength as the Azure Ship Girl?

Take the torpedo with your face, and resist the naval gun with your body?

……

A few hours later.

Port area coast.

Lu Chen stood in the experimental field, with the flagships of the major fleets, Akashi, and many ship girls watching the fun standing nearby.

"Hit me."

Lu Chen said as he looked at the little ship girl opposite him who was wearing a sailor uniform, silver hair and animal ears.

Under normal circumstances, he would never dare to say this.

Don’t be fooled by the fact that destroyers are all small lolis. Their bodies are warships weighing thousands of tons. Even without using naval guns, a full-strength punch can lift whales and elephants into the sky.

"You will regret challenging Master Xuefeng, hohoho~~"

The little beast-eared ship girl pouted, made a sprinting gesture, and rushed straight towards Lu Chen.

boom--

Lu Chen took Xuefeng's punch steadily.

He felt the force coming from his hands was close to hundreds of tons.

"Oh!"

The girls of the battleships and aircraft carriers watching couldn't help but stare wide-eyed.

It's incredible that humans can withstand the impact of a destroyer.

"I'm going to be serious!"

Seeing that direct attack was ineffective, the little ship girl jumped back two steps and manifested her own ship suit.

Three 127mm main guns and two anti-aircraft machine guns fired at the same time, and shells rained down on Lu Chen.

At the same time, after the launch pads on both sides were opened, two torpedoes roared through the air.

When they were first launched, they were only the size of pocket toys, but in mid-air they suddenly turned into torpedoes more than 9 meters long, with such power that they were even powerful enough to penetrate the side armor of a battleship.

Boom——

After the smoke and dust cleared, Lu Chen stood there, brushing off the dust on his clothes, unharmed.

"Wow--"

The ship girls were instantly excited.

"Really?! He absorbed the Mind Cube!"

"You can't even fire a 127mm gun?! I wonder if the 380mm naval gun will work? Eh? Too big? What about a 203mm gun?"

"Can it stop the Enterprise's bombers?"

"Musashi, what are you trying to do?! Hurry up and put away your naval guns. That thing of yours can really kill people!!!"

Everyone hurriedly held down the two Sakura Empire ship girls who had pulled out illegal weapons due to emotional excitement.

...

Chapter 10 My gender identity is Gundam

An hour later.

The smoke and dust in the experimental field gradually dissipated, and the barbarians and Bri took tools and began to repair the battered field.

Even if they cannot exert their full strength in land combat, the destructive power of the ship girls is exaggerated, producing an effect similar to that of rockets washing the ground.

"Well, according to our test results and assessment, your physical strength is somewhere between a destroyer and a cruiser."

Enterprise said as he looked at the experimental data in his hand.

"You have stronger resistance to attack, similar to a heavy cruiser. Unless you are attacked by a large number of torpedoes, the firepower of ordinary destroyers should not be able to harm you."

"Only at the level of a destroyer? A bit weaker than I thought."

Lu Chen stretched his body.

He could probably sense it during the test.

She can handle the attacks of destroyers with ease, but when battleships and aircraft carriers come into play, she can only be crushed.

Similarly, small-caliber main guns cannot hurt themselves, but it is still a bit difficult to take on heavy cruiser-class naval guns.

"Perhaps it's because you and the Rubik's Cube aren't 100% in sync. If you use it more, you should be able to unleash greater power."

The company thought about it.

"Oh, that's alright."

Even the power of a destroyer is enough to dominate the surface.

Lu Chen felt that in the future he would have to reach the Yamato or Iowa level at least.

"But I don't seem to have the ability to summon a ship suit? And I can't float on the sea?"

He suddenly remembered that although they both used the power of the Mind Cube, he was missing something compared to the KanColle.

Only physical strength, no weapon system.

"Because Commander, your main body is not a warship."

Akashi's eyes were still full of resentment.

"The function of the Mind Cube is to materialize the collective cognition of humans regarding a certain object."

"To put it another way, if the user believes that the warship is a ship girl, it can give the warship intelligence and turn it into a human."

"But your self-perception is that of a human, so naturally you don't have a ship suit."

"..."

Lu Chen was silent for a while.

"Because I think warships are people, the Rubik's Cube can turn warships into ship girls? What kind of idealism is this, the power of my own thoughts that distorts reality!?"

"Is it because I consider myself a human that I can't become a Kanbata?!"

"Is such that."

Akashi nodded.

"But if you, Commander, think you are something else, the Cube might be able to turn you into that."

Lu Chen gained a new understanding of the advanced technology of the Blue World.

"So, if I truly believe I'm a warship, I can project a ship suit. If I believe I'm a Gundam, I can pilot Unit-01, Strelitzia, Strike Freedom, or Barbatos?!"

"uh-huh."

Akashi agreed.

"I don't know what a Gundam is, but theoretically it's like this, meow."

……

Lu Chen had no way to distort his self-perception in a short period of time.

He has been a genuine human being for more than twenty years, and it is useless even if he frantically tells himself "I am a Star Destroyer, I am a Star Destroyer" or "I am a Gundam, I am a Gundam..."

This thing is not as simple as gender recognition, where you can just fill in an armed helicopter or something.

The subconscious mind disagrees, and the body disagrees too.

I can only think of a solution later.

However, being able to obtain physical qualities similar to those of the ship girl does not make the trip in vain.

It also made him curious about what other capabilities would be compatible in the future.

The only small problem is that Akashi often follows him around to collect debts.

Condemning myself for getting a mind cube for free.

Lu Chen had no choice but to promise that he would help her sell the painted box to the multiverse in the future and cheat the aliens from other worlds together.

After a little thought, Akashi immediately smiled happily. He squatted in the store every day to paint the white boxes with gold, preparing to shock the other world with a little profiteer.

Five days later.

Inside the top floor conference room of the main building in the port area.

After a period of discussion and after dealing with the incident of Lu Chen eating the only Mind Cube in the port area.

The two sides reached a consensus on cooperation between the two worlds.

Although they had not been together for a long time, perhaps because of his affinity for the power of the Mind Cube, the other ship girls became much friendlier towards Lu Chen.

Some enthusiastic ones have already started calling him "Commander".

"Well, then, on behalf of all the shipgirls in Azur Lane, I agree to enter into a comprehensive cooperative relationship with your world."

Enterprise, dressed in a white military uniform, handed a document to Lu Chen.

This was the result of many negotiations and discussions between the two parties, as well as countless meetings within the KanColle team.

Lu Chen opened the document, which came in duplicate. The Azur Lane logo was printed on the title page, making it look very formal.

It is very similar to the diplomatic conference between the major countries on Blue Star back then.

"On behalf of the Minato District, I sign with you a trade agreement, an immigration agreement, a scientific research agreement, a non-aggression pact, and a military alliance agreement."

“May you bring prosperity and development to both worlds.”

Chapter 11: Trade Agreement, Non-Aggression, Military Alliance

The agreement document is dozens of pages long, and the wording and sentence structure have the style of a diplomatic announcement.

It can be seen that the port ship girls attach great importance to this and are serious about it.

Lu Chen read it carefully and found that the core content was actually quite simple.

The trade agreement is that the Blue World will send a vanguard fleet to help rebuild civilization on Earth, develop the resources there, and regularly transport a portion of them back to the port as a reward.

The immigration agreement allows the ship girls to travel freely between the two worlds and choose where to live, whether they want to live in the Grand Port District or on Earth. Lu Chen needs to guarantee their citizenship rights.

Military alliance, when any party is attacked, the allies will join the war to protect the other party, the vanguard fleet will follow Lu Chen to fight in other worlds, and Lu Chen is also obligated to help the port area solve the threat of Sirens in the future.

Rights and obligations are equal, and every detail is clearly stipulated.

The content of the agreement has been made fair and just as much as possible, and there is nothing wrong with it in any aspect.

"I agree."

Lu Chen signed his name on the document.

“It’s been a pleasure working with you.”

The company representative, Minato, also signed his name.

The ship girls in the audience burst into cheers.
