Azur Lane Mobile Front.

Upon hearing Bismarck's words, Robb barely changed his expression.

However, upon closer inspection, Rob realized that the other side seemed to be serious.

"Alright, I don't have much time, let's get down to business."

Somewhat awkwardly, Rob sat down and gestured to the head maid to get him a cup of coffee as well.

After all, I was quite exhausted last night.

"Yes! I like your style!"

Bismarck nodded and sat down with Rob.

...

"Sir, regarding that organization you mentioned some time ago..."

"We at Ironblood want to get involved."

All I can say is that Bismarck was a ship with a very iron-blooded style.

In negotiations, she prefers a straightforward approach.

"Wow? That's interesting."

"But...Ms. Bismarck, you should know the current situation of the Ironblood, shouldn't you?"

Luo Bo was slightly taken aback; he hadn't expected that the other party had contacted him about this matter.

It's important to understand that while the Ironbloods faced less severe punishment than the Sakura Empire did back then.

However, the label of "defeated nation" was truly and undeniably etched onto the country.

"I know, that's why Ironblood needs an opportunity."

"At the same time, this is also a revenge that Ironblood must complete."

As he spoke, a fierce glint appeared on Bismarck's pale face.

"Revenge...that's an interesting word."

Rob held his cup, watching Bismarck with great interest.

"Whom should we take revenge on?"

"The Sirens, or rather, Antix."

"interesting."

Rob laughed.

As the faction that cooperated most closely with the Sirens and conducted the most in-depth research on Sirensian technology, the leader of the Ironblood actually said that he wanted to take revenge on the Sirens.

"So, do you know?"

"Most of the technology that Ironblood uses now comes from the gifts of the Sirens."

"So that's how it is? And you actually dared to say you want revenge against the Sirens?"

After saying that, Rob put down his cup and stared intently at Bismarck.

"However, the Ironbloods have also come to this point because of the Sirens' guidance and coercion."

"When your fate has been controlled by others, and you happen to have that opportunity again, shouldn't you seek revenge?"

Bismarck looked at Rob with a calm expression, his words filled with determination.

"Heh~ Interesting, really—very interesting."

Rob laughed.

"Then I'll give you that chance."

"Next time, I'll bring Ironblood with me."

"However, please remember that you are not under my command."

"Therefore, you will not enjoy any of it."

"All I'm giving you is a chance to get up in front of Antix."

Chapter 678: The Iris Theocracy, whose Planned Ships Are Entirely Manufactured by Outsourcing

After several days of intensive meetings with leaders of other factions, Rob finally led his fleet to the Iris Theocracy.

After working for several days in a row, Rob finally got a little rest.

Although he still has a lot of things to deal with.

The newly freed Iris Kingdom is now radiating the vitality of its rebirth.

Everywhere you look, you can see a thriving scene.

St. Louis would be most pleased to see this situation.

This phenomenon often represents a large number of business opportunities.

As a ship under the command of the supreme commander Luo, she can undoubtedly enjoy many advantages that others cannot obtain when she wants to conduct business here.

Watching St. Louis run off excitedly, claiming to be investigating the market, Rob said thoughtfully, "Do you think that cunning cat from our port area might also come over in this situation?"

Upon hearing this, Yukikaze, who had been looking around, tugged at Rob's sleeve.

Then, following the direction Yukikaze pointed, Robo successfully found the cunning cat in an Akashi convenience store.

"It really is there!"

...

When Robo brought his ships to Akashi, the cunning cat was clearly startled.

"Um... Commander, why are you here?"

Looking at the other person's evasive eyes, Luo Bo had a feeling that this guy was up to something again.

"You haven't been up to something behind my back again, have you?"

"Meow?! No...no meow!"

Although the hairs on her ears stood up, Akashi's mouth remained stubborn.

"Unicorn, is she lying?"

Patting his little sister's head, Rob activated the "liar detector for his sister."

"Ok!"

Then the unicorn nodded vigorously, instantly sinking the cunning cat.

"Hmph~ Akashi, it looks like we need to have a talk, a good talk!"

"Meow!!!"

Under Akashi's horrified gaze, Robo led a group of ships into her small shop.

...

Before long, Robo came out with his own ship, leaving the cunning cat, who looked as if he had been played with and was secretly heartbroken, in the shop.

The things this cunning cat did weren't actually a big deal.

She was just using Rob's name to promote her store's products.

If that were all, Rob wouldn't say anything.

But can you believe that this unscrupulous merchant is actually advertising a health product?

So Rob severely punished the cunning cat and incidentally collected a large sum of "compensation for emotional distress".

...

That very evening, a pirate lady received the vow ring she had longed for.

As for what extreme things the excited pirate lady did next, that's another story.

...

The next day, led by Clemenceau and accompanied by Richelieu Jeanbart, Robb arrived at a ship research center by private plane.

Of course, he hadn't forgotten his own kitten.

"So, this is the only project ship that Iris has completely independently developed?"

As he walked, Rob looked at Clemenceau with disbelief.

Just now, Clemenceau gave a detailed introduction to the Iris's planned ship situation.

Although traditional ships are now showing signs of becoming obsolete.

However, compared to most other ships, the planned ships still have performance advantages.

Moreover, they often demonstrate superior combat prowess in battles against the Sirens.

Therefore, the various factions have never stopped developing the planned ships.

However, the planned ships for Iris seem particularly bizarre.

Louis IX collaborated with the White Eagle, and Gascoigne was completed with the help of the Iron Blood.

The champagne was manufactured by the Northern Union, and Flanders got help from the Sardinian Empire.

Now, all of these planned ships, except for Louis IX who is still with White Eagle and hasn't been brought back, are following behind Rob.

Luo Bo turned his head and glanced at the view, and felt his blood pressure rise.

Clemenceau used very euphemistic language, mostly employing terms like joint development and technical support.

However, Rob understood perfectly.

Isn't this just because they don't have enough technical expertise and have to find someone else?

"Hmm~ If the commander insists on saying so, then yes."

Faced with Rob's questioning, Clemenceau could only nod in agreement.

"Alright, let's go take a look."

After hearing what was said earlier, Rob no longer had much hope for this planned ship.

All he's thinking about now is that as long as nothing goes wrong, he can go into the water without any problems.

"By the way, what's the name of this planned ship again?"

"Brest, the large cruiser—Brest."

...

After navigating countless corridors and staircases, the group finally arrived at their final destination.

Unlike traditional shipbuilding sites, the construction equipment for the planned ship is full of science fiction elements.

There are generally two methods for building traditional warships.

One way is to gamble by building a device, just like Robb did when he built his company.

Although the cost per shipment is quite low, the shipment rate is also quite impressive.

Another method is to analyze the Mind Cube to read the ship's data.

Then, based on the data, the corresponding ship hull is built directly, and then the ship is obtained directly through the awakening of the Mind Cube.

While this method of building ships guarantees a 100% delivery rate.

However, the consumption of resources is much greater.

Furthermore, there are still certain technological hurdles to overcome in the modernization of ship hulls.

Just like the hull of the New Jersey ship, the White Eagle had the technology to build the 406mm MK-7, but it got stuck in the process of shipboard integration.

However, the planned ships are different from the two construction methods mentioned above.

The ship's equipment data for the planned ships is unreadable.

The builders only knew that they could create something, but they had no idea why they would create such a thing.

Furthermore, the Mind Cubes used to build the planned ships need to undergo certain processing steps before they can be used.

Similarly, in addition to investing a certain amount of resources, building a planned ship also requires inputting some necessary data.
