I'm in the azure sky, and I have an anti-fraud app.

“If you really like it, you can eat it all night long~” Frederick the Great stopped what he was doing: “Oh dear, didn’t I tell the Commander that I have to tell him before I can disarm? Trying to sneak it in—how naughty~”

This was the first time Li Wei had encountered a situation where his cannon muzzle was blocked by a finger—he was so anxious that his face turned slightly red. He spat out the sweet cotton candy from his mouth: "Frederick the Great..."

"So, if I call you... then you're allowed to store the ammunition directly in...'s hands?" Frederick the Great's smile took on a mischievous glint.

She harbored an inexplicable jealousy towards the commander for shortening his time to care for Tirpitz and the others, which transformed into her current jealousy—as long as the commander's main guns were under her control, Frederick the Great believed he would be invincible.

Li Wei opened his mouth and honestly shouted it out.

"Good boy~" Frederick the Great's eyes shone with happiness. It was just a title, but it made Frederick the Great's love overflow. His fingers not only stopped being an obstacle, but they also became more forceful, causing the ammunition to overflow from the muzzle of the main cannon and form a small lake in Frederick the Great's palm.

"call……"

Li Wei sighed and sat up from Frederick the Great's lap: "Frederick the Great is still a little jealous, isn't he?"

“Of course, I’ve never denied it, have I?” Frederick the Great placed his palm facing himself to his red lips: “How does the Commander want me to deal with this little lake?”

“Of course, you should drink it.” Just as Frederick the Great was about to take action, Li Wei’s next words stopped her for a few seconds: “But not now.”

"That is……"

Li Wei fully indulged his wicked sense of humor: "Now you must smell it carefully, fix this scent in your mind, and never forget it."

“Hmm…” Frederick the Great did as instructed: “Commander, really, you just like to play tricks… Do you know I’ve done this before? To punish me like this…”

Now it was Li Wei's turn to be surprised: "...Frederick, you really did that?"

Frederick the Great then realized he had been exposed: "Well... not that many times, just a few times, ahahaha..."

Li Wei looked heartbroken: "I never imagined that Frederick the Great would become so twisted... Come to think of it, I don't remember? When was that?"

Frederick the Great's gaze held a hint of resentment: "You can't even remember when the last time you... was? It seems I... don't hold such a high place in the Commander's heart~, or perhaps, the Commander only sees me as... someone he only thinks of when he wants something?"

Li Wei was caught off guard and quickly comforted Frederick the Great, which brought a smile back to his face.

"Alright, just watch me... clean this little lake up all at once!" Frederick the Great tried to keep it warm with the tip of his tongue, but clearly failed. "Hmm... be careful, or it'll be a waste..."

"Let's go, next up is the second round!"

……

"...This is the second place you mentioned?"

"Yes, what's wrong? Commander, don't you like it?"

Li Wei stood in the pavilion in the middle of the lake in the park and looked around. All he could see was the shimmering water.

“This is a place where no one will disturb us at all~” Frederick the Great turned to face the outside of the pavilion, poked out his jelly, and gently shook it to invite the commander to come forward: “Even those playful submarines wouldn’t show up here at this time.”

Li Wei took half a step forward and slapped Frederick the Great's jelly hard; he could even feel a ripple appear in the air.

Li Wei gestured for Frederick the Great to adjust the angle: "If you hadn't said that before, it would have been fine, but now that you've said it, I really feel like it's a self-fulfilling prophecy."

Frederick the Great, however, was brimming with confidence: "Even if it really does appear, I won't back down again—one concession was enough, and that was only because Tirpitz rushed back from the far north. Ordinary ship girls would have to ask me first if they wanted to compete for it!"

"What's so great about that!" Li Wei said, while attacking Frederick the Great's core chamber, complaining about her simultaneous defense and attack: "If a ship girl really appears, you probably won't be able to take care of anything else then."

Frederick the Great did not refute: "Hmm..."

If someone has already fought the commander to the point of unconsciousness, then it doesn't matter whether someone comes to interrupt; it might even be a good thing...

The sound of water could be heard not far away.

U96's little head popped out from under the water: "Commander, what are you doing here... Ah, out in the park so late at night, Commander, you have quite the romantic air~"

Li Wei: ...

Frederick the Great: ...

Li Wei patted Frederick the Great's jelly without expression, the ripples from it swaying in the air: "Is this the place you said no one would ever know?"

Frederick the Great simply shook his head and remained silent.

U81's little head also emerged from the water: "U96, why aren't you moving? Ah, it's the Commander..."

As U81 was talking, she was about to go ashore when U96 pulled her back: "The commander is still busy. Let's finish the plan first."

Li Wei: "...What plan?"

"...We used to train here a lot. After all, there are no waves and not many people, so we can have a lot of fun." U96 explained, "We trained here before heading to the home port with the Commander. We stopped training here after returning to the home port!"

"Since the Commander has been at Ironblood Harbor these past few days, we came back to revisit some scenes~, but unexpectedly, we stumbled upon the Commander and Frederick the Great's relationship..."

u81 tugged at u96: "If we keep talking about u37, we'll never see him again!"

U96 immediately waved goodbye to Levi: "Ah, Commander, we'll talk later~"

Chapter 384 The Heartache of Iron-Blooded Sisters

Li Wei returned to his room a little late that evening.

Not only was Frederick the Great reluctant to part with him, but several little submarine girls also circled back to cause a ruckus, forcing Levi to spend an extra round of ammunition to successfully "escape".

He was already pondering whether or not he should believe Frederick the Great's statement that "there will be no one here"—every time the older sister said this, she encountered other ship girls.

Li Wei stood in front of his room, trying to calm himself down, but before he knew it, the ship girl behind the door pulled him into the room.

"Well……"

The sweet taste brought Li Wei back to his senses, and his aloof demeanor and expression left him momentarily unsure of what to do with his hands.

“Tirpitz…”

"Commander, I've been waiting for you for so long."

The lonely queen of the north spoke passionately, but her hand gestures were slightly clumsy, her experience and her feelings "inversely proportional."

Bismarck emerged from the bathroom, drying her hair. "Commander, welcome... Ah, Tirpitz has already begun? They don't even want to waste a few seconds..."

With Tirpitz on his left and Bismarck on his right, Levi walked into the room. Once inside, Levi discovered that the otherwise ordinary room had been decorated by the ship girls, with pink as the main color and red flowers showcasing their affection.

"It seems you're all really looking forward to tonight."

“Yes, Commander…” Tirpitz continued, following her sister’s lead, “I really… don’t want to waste a single second…”

“Then come back to the home port with me.” Levi gestured for Bismarck to get ready for battle by the bedside. “Anyway, the world is at peace, and you don’t have that much to do. Come back to the home port with me. If you like a quiet place, I can build you another corner—the home port is very large, there’s bound to be a place that suits your taste.”

Tirpitz was clearly tempted. She gently shook her jelly, raising the main gun's combat level by another level: "But the north..."

Li Wei remembered that when he went to the Northern Alliance before, Tirpitz had gone north with him. A question arose in his mind, and he turned to Bismarck, who was also prepared behind him: "Bismarck, is there anything else that needs to be dealt with in the north?"

“No.” Bismarck knelt behind Levi with a smile. “Tirpitz is just not used to being with her companions—she’s more used to living alone. If it weren’t for the Commander’s visit to Sangvis Ferri this time, Tirpitz would never have been willing to show up.”

So, does that mean I'm a hero?

“Of course he’s a hero, a great hero!” Bismarck chuckled softly behind Levi, kissing the commander on the back. “Let this iron-blooded leader offer our greatest hero the finest service!”

Tirpitz: "...I'm still here."

Levi took Tirpitz's hands and gestured for her to look up. The two of them formed the shape of a capital "D" and shared a loving kiss.

"Ugh..." Tirpitz gasped for breath, "Commander, even if you're like this..."

"If that's not enough, we'll do it a few more times." Levi declared that he was the best at curing the ship girls' stubbornness; he not only kissed them, but he also kissed them. With the boost from Bismarck, the main guns shared a close kiss with Tirpitz's core, allowing Tirpitz to experience the healing effect from the commander.

"Well……"

Bismarck marveled inwardly at the commander's amazing healing abilities while continuing to help.

Li Wei, enjoying the service of the two ship girls, said, "Speaking of which, Bismarck, your performance tonight was also amazing."

Bismarck looked up from the valley: "What?"

Li Wei let out a comfortable sigh: "What you said before... you couldn't have said such things before, could you?"

"Isn't this for the Commander?" Bismarck smiled and continued to serve. "Tirpitz forced herself to come to an environment she wasn't good at for the Commander's sake, so it's only right that I say something I'm not good at for the Commander and my sister's sake, right?"

"Tsk..."

Tirpitz: "Hmm... my sister is always like this, she likes to spontaneously try to care for others in some way, even though... that's why I..."

"Don't speak ill of your sister." Li Wei patted Tirpitz's jelly, as if you could see white waves rippling in the air: "Bismarck meant well, and she didn't cause any bad results. If you say that, your sister will be sad."

Bismarck looked up at the commander, her eyes filled with gratitude, and served even more diligently.

"Hmm..." Tirpitz wasn't entirely convinced either: "I haven't finished speaking yet..."

Li Wei patted Bismarck's jelly again: "Then you say it."

Bismarck rolled her eyes, unsure whether it was because she couldn't defend against the attack or because Levi's words had left her speechless. The main guns unleashed their power in the land of Tirpitz, turning the ship girl's core compartment into complete chaos.

“Of course I can feel my sister’s concern, but… um…” Tirpitz struggled to find the right words: “I don’t object… I’m even a little happy about it, but…”

“But what? No buts.” Levi continued patting Tirpitz’s jelly. Looking at Tirpitz’s expression, Levi suddenly wondered if he was going to develop a new operating system for Tirpitz if he continued like this.

Tirpitz tried to speak: "But... I still hope... my sister can show more concern..."

Both Livy and Bismarck paused in their movements.

Li Wei: ?

Bismarck: ?

After confirming he hadn't misheard, Bismarck sprang to his feet from behind Levy and rushed to his sister, Tirpitz: "Tirpitz, I never imagined... I thought you really disliked me, so... I..." Bismarck was too overwhelmed to utter a complete sentence: "This is wonderful... this is wonderful, sister, I love you..."

Livy admired the love between the sisters, but didn't forget her own actions. Now, not only was Bismarck's speech slurred, but Tirpitz wasn't much better off either.

Tirpitz, relying on her round, red lips, looked like a fish searching for water in the air: "I... um..."

Bismarck, filled with hope, his eyes subtly asking, "Tirpitz... what are you going to say?"

Tirpitz: "Commander, I'm about to be defeated..."

Bismarck: ...

Bismarck even had a red ring around the corner of his eye. He had thought Tirpitz would say something important at this moment, but Tirpitz's sudden remark left him speechless.

Bismarck rolled her eyes at the commander, seemingly slightly displeased by his sudden "intervention"; however, Levi completely ignored Bismarck's gaze and intensified his attack on Tirpitz. Tirpitz could also sense that the main gun in the core compartment was about to explode, and used all his strength to restrain it.

boom!

The sound of the main gun firing was like a thousand cannons roaring in Tirpitz's mind, causing her to raise her fair neck and only let out a mournful cry.

Compared to other battle-hardened ship girls, Tirpitz's defense was indeed a bit weak—partly due to her lack of combat experience. While the number of proactive ship girls was about to surpass 200, Levi saw through the detailed information that Tirpitz's number was barely in the double digits.

Name: Tirpitz

Identity: Bismarck's sister, the lonely queen of the North, a scholar-general, and a homebody.

Personality: Seemingly cold, resolute and decisive, yet compassionate; secretly doting on her older sister.

Number of times: 11

Weaknesses: Core module, the jelly that gets hit (currently being developed), and what his older sister said.

Status: Completely powerless (under attack), unable to think.

Last time: I missed my commander while I was in the north.

Li Wei beckoned to Bismarck: "Your sister has been defeated, and it looks like she won't wake up anytime soon. You can take her place."

Bismarck then remembered that she was still having an in-depth conversation with the commander. She had been so moved by her sister's honest words that she had momentarily forgotten the current situation; now that Levi had said this, Bismarck realized that she had actually prepared for battle as well—perhaps even a little too much.

"Commander, I...I'm so happy."

Li Wei nodded in understanding.

"This is the first time I've ever seen Tirpitz so bold, and the first time I've ever heard her say something like this. To be honest, I've been very nervous and guilty before, wondering if my concern for Tirpitz has become a burden for her, causing her to develop this kind of personality."

Li Wei gently patted Bismarck's head: "This is not your problem. Besides, you heard it yourself, Tirpitz has no complaints about you."

Bismarck threw herself into Levi's arms: "I really have to thank you for all of this, my commander. Without you, I wouldn't be here with my sister, completely open with her..."
