Azur Lane Mobile Front.

"If there are no problems, you can represent me and begin taking over the economic assets of the Sakura Empire."

"Go ahead and do it without hesitation or reservations."

St. Louis gave Rob a seductive glance before accepting the large stack of documents handed to him.

After casually glancing through the pages, a satisfied smile appeared on the face of this light cruiser who always exuded a charming aura.

"I've only been in the port for a short time, does the Commander trust me that much?"

"Of course, otherwise I wouldn't have entrusted such an important matter to you."

"Hehe~ Then I'll have to prepare properly."

After putting away the folder in her hand, St. Louis strode gracefully toward the office door.

Whether it was because her uniform was too short or because she did it on purpose, Rob could vaguely see part of the light cruiser's steering mechanism from behind.

It wobbles around, and you can tell at a glance that it has good elasticity.

"Hiss~ This is a demon, isn't it?"

After only a couple of glances, Rob felt something was wrong and quickly looked away.

Just as St. Louis stepped out, Zhenhai walked in.

"Well, Commander, isn't it beautiful?"

Without any hesitation, Zhenhai sat directly into Luo Bo's lap, but his eyes remained fixed on the doorway.

"What do you mean by good or bad looks?"

Faced with questions about his Oathship ship, Rob immediately began to play dumb.

"Heh~ You're not taking me with you on this trip? What? Planning to cultivate a relationship with that bishop?"

Luo Bo simply laughed off Zhenhai's sarcasm.

He reached out and wrapped his arms around Zhenhai's slender waist.

"Stop messing around. The reason we're letting you stay is because only you can handle things here."

"Now that Sakura Empire is under our control, the entire defensive deployment in this sea area needs to be rearranged."

"Originally, the Sakura Empire didn't need to consider the Sirens."

"But now, we must consider this issue."

"Therefore, you're the only one who can take charge of things here in Donghuang. Keep in touch with Mikasa if anything comes up, and I'll relay the message over there."

"That lady's experience will still come in handy to some extent."

"How long are you planning to be gone?"

Zhenhai did not reply, but instead changed the subject.

Zhenhai shifted his body slightly to make himself more comfortable, leaned against Luo Bo's chest, and closed his eyes as if he were resting.

"I'm not sure. If it goes quickly, it can be done in a few days. If it goes slowly, it might take a month or two."

"Really? Let me calculate it~"

"What kind of?"

Hehe~

Zhenhai merely chuckled twice in response to Luo Bo's question, without offering a reply.

For some reason, Rob suddenly felt a chill down his spine, as if something terrible was about to happen.

Although Luo Bo was bothered by the meaningful look in Zhenhai's eyes when he left, he had no choice but to put it aside when he saw the head maid walking in.

After all, it will take a lot of effort to persuade this head maid to stay in Donghuang.

"Belfa, how's the port construction going?"

"Everything is normal, Master."

"Did the master summon Belfast to have her stay here and keep an eye on Akashi and the others?"

Before Rob could even speak, the head maid had already seen right through his little scheme.

"Okay, you can't hide anything from me. Yes, that's what I'm planning."

"Ninghai and Yixian are shrewd, but they are clearly not enough to deal with Mingshi."

"Moreover, they lack knowledge in this area and are laymen. It would be too easy for Akashi to fool the two of them."

“Since you have made the request, Master, Belfast will naturally not refuse.”

"However, Master, did you know that the maid is actually quite greedy?"

After agreeing to Rob's request, the head maid looked at him with a smile, her large blue-violet eyes sparkling with a playful light.

"So please don't mind if Belfast takes up more of your time in the days to come~"

...

After arranging all the tasks at hand, Rob spent the rest of his time in the company of the head maid.

The head maid perfectly fulfilled her words.

Lying on the head maid's soft lap, Rob quietly enjoyed the afternoon sun.

The head maid gently pressed her hands on Rob's head, quietly giving him a massage.

Everyone who tried to disturb the tranquility was deterred by the head maid's gaze.

Rob also enjoyed a rare half-day of leisure.

...

After dinner, Rob decided to go to bed early because they were scheduled to leave the next morning.

However, someone was already waiting at the door before him.

"Zhenhai, is something the matter?"

Zhenhai stared at Luo Bo without saying a word, his eyes flashing with a meaningful light.

"Commander, I've calculated it."

"What's settled?"

"Of course, you owe me something after your trip, hehe~"

Before Luo Bo could react, he was pulled into Zhenhai's boudoir.

As the door slammed shut, the only sound that could be faintly heard from outside was Rob's terrified screams.

"Zhenhai, don't do this, I have to get up early tomorrow!"

Chapter 212: Before the Opening

The next day, when Rob walked out of Zhenhai's room yawning, he was naturally teased by the head maid.

“Oh my~ Master and mistress have such a good relationship, Belfast is even a little jealous.”

Rob looked in the direction of the sound and saw that the head maid's side was filled with bags and packages.

It seems the head maid is quite worried about Rob leaving her to go out alone.

"Belfa, do we really need to prepare so much stuff?"

After roughly estimating how much stuff there was in this huge pile, Rob couldn't help but feel a little scared.

There's nothing else to it, but the way things are now is far too similar to your mother's feeling that you're not prepared enough.

"Master, thorough preparation is essential to handle all kinds of situations."

The head maid stood firm against Rob's questions, or rather, she felt that these were far from enough.

It took a lot of effort for Rob to finally get all those bags and packages onto the Eternal.

Miss Haitian was already seated in the captain's seat, holding a book of poems, waiting for Rob and the others.

"Haitian, so early?"

Realizing he had kept this literary-minded girl in the port area waiting for a long time, Rob greeted her somewhat apologetically.

"Commander, the early bird catches the worm. Please don't be too lazy."

Hai Tian put down the poetry collection he was holding and walked up to Luo Bo.

Hai Tian took out a brand-new book of poems from his pocket and handed it to Luo Bo.

"Please use this to pass the time during your journey, Commander."

Robert nodded as he accepted the exquisite book, which still carried a faint fragrance.

"Thank you, Haitian."

...

Back in his room, Rob casually flipped through a couple of pages before his eyelids started to droop.

It's not that Rob doesn't like reading; it's just that he didn't sleep well last night.

"Ah~ Enterprise, I'm going to take a nap. Wake me up later."

After patting the company nestled in his arms, Rob immediately prepared to go back to sleep.

The company employee, who usually sleeps until noon, immediately took off his coat and crawled into bed upon seeing this situation, moving much faster than Robo.

"No way! Commander, you can call me then!"

"And don't think I don't know!"

"Alright then, we'll just have to hope that Shoukaku and the others remember to call us for dinner."

Seeing that his white-haired companion was much more skilled at getting into bed than he was, Rob didn't say much, but simply reached out and hugged his Oathship.

...

On this trip to Africa, apart from Richelieu and Joan of Arc, Rob only brought Enterprise and Shoukaku Zuikaku.

I had previously analyzed the current ideology of the Vichy Papacy's ships with Richelieu and the others.

Because of what happened to the Royal Navy, the Vichy Church now harbors extreme hatred towards the Royal Navy faction, and incidentally, they also dislike ships from all factions in Azur Lane.

As a result, aside from his own starting ship, Robo could only choose two ships from the Sakura Empire to travel to Africa together.

...

Just as Rob embarked on his journey to Africa.

Far away in the distant port of Dakar, two destroyers had already arrived.

"How terrifying, I never expected it would be you who came here this time."

A woman with long, golden-brown hair tied in huge twin ponytails with red ribbons, wearing a white, narrow-waisted short skirt and equestrian-style high heels, stood out with her body, which clearly didn't resemble that of a destroyer, and greeted her companion, named Fright.

"Long time no see, you rash fellow."

In response to her companion's warm greeting, the destroyer, dressed in a pristine white papal-style outfit over a black bodysuit, holding a cross scepter, and sporting a white cross-shaped flower above her left eye, simply replied with a curt remark.

"Since we arrived earlier, why don't we make contact with the garrison here first?"

"If we succeed right away, Richelieu will be absolutely stunned!"

The reckless boy hopped and skipped around the terrifying place twice, then suddenly had the idea to approach the guards there himself.

Naturally, this idea was horribly rejected.

"No, we do not have the authority to make any promises to the garrison here."

"Yeah, that's true."

"Oh right, that's terrifying. Have you seen the recent news?"

“Ricellie, she…”

As if remembering something, Lu Mang suddenly stopped, his eyes shining as he looked at Ke Kui.

"Are you referring to that rumor about Richelieu and the Eastern Commander?"

"If you're so concerned, you can ask the Cardinal yourself when she arrives."

"Hey~ Why is it like this!"
