Azur Lane Mobile Front.

Logically speaking, these should all be considered his prisoners.

But he had nowhere to put it!

Even though there was still plenty of space on the white wooden horse, Rob still thought it was a bit too much to use his flagship as a prisoner.

After working for quite some time, Rob and his team finally completed their mission and returned "fully loaded".

...

The news that Sakura Empire had undergone a three-way consultation spread throughout the world in just a few days.

Rob was overwhelmed with all sorts of greetings.

The Royal Family alone sent several different congratulatory messages.

"Master, this is a congratulatory letter personally written by His Majesty!"

The head maid handed a congratulatory letter, which had been airlifted over, to Robert with a smile.

Rob was completely bewildered. These high-ranking people were the most difficult to deal with because he had to return the favor politely.

"Read it aloud~"

Rob threw the letter of congratulations back into the hands of the head maid and spread it out on his seat.

Through the head maid's words, Robb finally understood what the Queen of the Royal Family meant.

Two points: You, Robo, attacked the Sakura Empire without calling me?

When are you going to help me beat up Ironblood too?

In general, royal congratulatory letters usually contain this kind of content.

After all, the feud between the Royal Navy and the Sakura Empire is quite significant.

Chicheng's main achievement in the Pacific was to completely wipe out the royal territory.

As for the White Eagles, they were more concerned with the plans for the next operation.

As for Mikasa Daisenbei, there hasn't been any word yet, but Robo guesses she should be arriving soon.

...

Just as Rob had expected, the Mikasa Daisenbei arrived at the port of Donghuang that afternoon.

As soon as he entered, Rob saw the barely suppressed rage on the other person's face.

"What do you mean?"

Standing in front of Robo, Mikasa took several deep breaths before coldly asking her question.

"What, what do you mean?"

While gesturing to the head maid to serve tea, Robo adjusted his posture, preparing to have a proper chat with Mikasa Daisenbei.

The other party's attitude was not beyond his expectations.

"I called you here, so why didn't you just defeat those two kids, Akagi and Kaga? Why did you have to attack the port?"

"Do you know how many of those children were saved through my own efforts?"

"How am I supposed to continue if you do this?"

Rob looked at Mikasa, paused for a moment, and then couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"Ms. Mikasa, you need to understand that I and the Sakura Empire are on opposing sides."

"It is perfectly justified for me to take any military action against the Sakura Empire."

"But the children of the newly formed Sakura Empire are not your enemies; they have already returned to Azur Lane!"

Upon hearing Robo's words, Mikasa's anger flared up again.

"That's why I called out beforehand that I'm here to find Akagi. They hit me, so I can't just stand by and do nothing, can I?"

Rob shrugged, indicating that he was also helpless.

Then, Rob gestured for Daisenbei to sit down, have a sip of tea, and speak slowly.

"Commander, there's no need for all that. Just get to the point. What exactly do you want?"

After drinking a couple of sips of tea, Da Xianbei's temper subsided, and she looked much calmer now.

"Defeating Sakura Empire is that simple."

"What about us?"

"Ms. Mikasa, you don't really think that just because Sakura Empire changed its name to New Sakura Empire Alliance, everything that happened before can be wiped clean, do you?"

"Well, Akagi and Kaga are also with me. Should I hand them over to you as well, so they can also become part of the new Sakura Empire alliance?"

The large scallop was clearly frozen in place by what Rob said.

In her view, the current situation of Sakura Empire is undoubtedly Akagi's fault.

Therefore, as long as Akagi is removed from her position as leader, the Sakura Empire's problems will naturally be solved.

"You see, you've realized it too."

"Furthermore, Ms. Mikasa, you don't really think that Akagi can be held responsible for everything the Sakura Empire has done, do you?"

"That's too unfair to her."

Luo Bo picked up the black tea on the table, took a sip, and moistened his throat.

"She can mobilize an entire camp and launch a war all by herself?"

"She alone can turn the entire Pacific Ocean upside down, causing countless deaths and injuries?"

"She alone was able to get you so many supplies and spoils from overseas?"

"That won't work, will it?"

After saying this, Rob remained silent, staring at Mikasa opposite him, waiting for her reply.

"What's the meaning..."

"This war was initiated by the entire Sakura Empire faction."

“You enjoyed the benefits of victory in the war, and now it’s time to pay your debts.”

What do you want to do?

Mikasa was shocked. She realized that the commander of the Eastern Empire in front of her was somewhat unfamiliar.

"If you want to change Sakura Empire, then Sakura Empire needs to be completely cleaned up from top to bottom."

"To give an example."

"Ms. Mikasa, you don't actually think that Yamato was completely unaware of what Akagi did, do you?"

How did you find out this name?

Mikasa frowned, staring at Rob with a puzzled expression.

Yamato, this is a top secret within the Sakura Empire. Even on Sakura Empire ships, the only term used to refer to that person has always been "that person".

"Heh~ Musashi and Shinano have both shown up. I have no idea what you Sakura Empire are hiding?"

Robo found Mikasa's questions amusing.

"Hmm...where were we...oh right, Yamato."

"Yamato, as the flagship of your Sakura Empire, naturally takes the lead in all matters."

"Naturally, she needs to step out of this war and take on the responsibilities she should bear."

"You want to!"

Mikasa finally recovered and stared at Rob in disbelief.

"Yes, that's right. The sinners of the battlefield must be judged. If they refuse, then I'll beat them until they do!"

"The enemy of humanity and ships, past, present and future, is only the Sirens."

"If anyone wants to stab me in the back, then I'll have to get rid of them first."

Chapter 185: Everyone is in Action

Compared to the busy situation on Robo's side, the situation on Sakura Empire's side is much worse.

The defeats of Akagi, Kaga, and Musashi resulted in the Sakura Empire losing nearly half of its main fleet in a single night.

The fleet that the Sakura Empire retains is now in such dire need of resources that it can not even maintain its occupation of the Pacific, let alone encircle its homeland.

Upon learning of Rob's operation, the White Eagle headquarters immediately began assembling its fleet.

In their eyes, Sakura Empire is now a delicious cake, and they don't want it to fall into the hands of the Eastern Empire.

At this moment, Shen Tong was kneeling in front of a tightly closed door.

Through the door, the silhouette of a ship can be seen inside the room.

It's unclear what Shentong heard from here, but her face remained filled with a look of fear.

A short while later, Shentong bowed to the figure inside the door and carefully left.

Upon returning to the command post, Jintsu immediately mobilized the remaining fleet.

"Can't the Taiho be put into battle yet?"

Her first concern was the current status of Taihou, Sakura Empire's newest armored aircraft carrier.

"No, the Taiho carrier-based aircraft are simply not enough right now."

Beside Jintsu, Kawauchi picked up the conversation and continued, "Actually, it's not just Taihou; even the Second Carrier Division's ship equipment is barely adequate right now."

"During the previous attacks, a large number of our military factories and ship maintenance facilities were destroyed. Ships that need repair are still waiting in line."

"Tell them to hurry, we don't have time!"

Jintsu unconsciously bit her lip; the burden of Sakura Empire was too heavy for her now.

"What did Lord Shinano say?"

Jintsu raised her head, thinking of Shinano who had just woken up. This might be her only hope now.

"There's been no news from Lady Shinano; she seems to have no intention of participating in the battle."

As she flipped through the intelligence reports sent from various places, she was constantly thinking of countermeasures.

"We definitely can't hold out; the offensive capabilities of the Eastern Empire are simply too terrifying."

"Now, the only way out is to fight our way out."

"But I need time."

Thinking of this, Jintsu raised her head and looked at Kawauchi beside her.

"Go and send a message to the Eastern Empire, saying that we, the Sakura Empire, are willing to sit down and negotiate."

"I see."

Although Kawauchi, who is rather straightforward, didn't understand what "supernatural power" meant, she fulfilled her duties as an assistant very well: don't ask why, just do your job quietly.

"That's not enough... I need leverage in negotiations..."

Even after doing all that, Shen Tong's brows remained furrowed.

She was pondering what cards she still had left to play.

...

On the Eastern side, Robo's conversation with Mikasa ultimately ended unhappily.

After leaving the Eastern Empire, Mikasa hurriedly returned to the Sakura Empire.

Sakura Empire is now showing signs of instability, and she needs to go back to stabilize the situation.

With her reputation as Mikasa and Nagato, she believed that doing so would not be difficult.

After seeing Mikasa off, Robo threw himself back into a mountain of tasks.

"Commander, you don't need to be so busy~"

Having dealt with Akagi, Shoukaku, now free of worries, has a new goal in life—to deal with its own commander.

Her method of dealing with Rob was to promote the world's cutest Zuikaku!
