"Is that so..."

"Then you can familiarize yourself with it for a few days. After a while, I'll arrange for you and my unicorn to practice together."

At that moment, Rob had a guess in his mind.

However, it is not yet complete, so it has not been mentioned.

"Hmm? Then let's leave it at that!"

Pennsylvania nodded, acknowledging her agreement to the upcoming exercises. Then the old man pulled her away.

...

After the tour, everyone left the Grey Ghost.

The White Eagles also prepared a grand maiden voyage ceremony.

If all the ships stay on board, then there will be no one to preside over the ceremony.

Almost all the well-known media outlets in the White Eagle region were present at the event.

Illuminated by countless flashes of light, the gray ghost slowly sailed towards the sea.

...

A few days later, in the waters near White Eagle Port, New York.

The gray ghost floated in mid-air.

Not far away, two ships, one black and one white, one large and one small, now equipped with mecha, are sitting on the sea, echoing each other.

"So, my Pennsylvania Banshee is actually a sister ship to your Unicorn?"

The old man wasn't quite ready to accept it yet, and referred to the unicorns as sister ships.

"Ah. That's right, Unicorn Unit 1 and Banshee Unit 2."

"However, to be precise, it should now be called the Banshee of Death and the Goddess of Fate."

Compared to his initial weaponry, Rob ultimately chose the Fortune Goddess set for Pennsylvania.

He vaguely remembered that the White Eagle ships were traditionally known for their crews being poor at close combat.

And the Banshee's default weaponry... well, it's not really suitable for Pennsylvania.

"By the way, System, you've become more conscientious; you're not like a Cypriot anymore."

"You actually counted Banshee and Banshee Fates as Hull A and Hull B, instead of just selling them as two separate units."

Indeed, I lost out.

[Thank you for the reminder, host. This system will make the change immediately!]

"Damn it, that's enough already!"

While there was still some time, Luo Bo chatted idly with his system.

...

On the sea, Pennsylvania was looking at the unicorn opposite her with great curiosity.

Needless to say, the other person's design is definitely from the same series as mine.

I don't know why, but the moment I saw the other person, I felt a very complicated feeling inside.

"Is it an illusion?"

"Hmm... Sister, Unicorn knows about your mecha~"

Before the exercise began, Unicorn sent a message to Pennsylvania.

"Hehe, you know me, but I don't seem to know much about you."

"It seems there are still quite a few secrets between us~"

Pennsylvania raised an eyebrow and held up his Magnum rifle, which was fitted with a revolver-like launcher.

"However, we can talk about that later."

"Now, don't underestimate me just because I'm a newbie!"

...

"Hey kid, isn't it a bit too dangerous to start with live ammunition drills right away?"

Light and shadow flickered in the distance, and the streaks left by the beams of light as they streaked across the sky were visible even to Rob and his group.

"Danger? Doesn't exist. My unicorn can handle any danger."

Rob glanced at the old man, whose face was full of worry, and said that he knew nothing about charlatans.

"So... do you think my Pennsylvania... can win?"

Immediately, Rob put on a dead fish-like expression.

"Grandpa, I dreamt I was back in the living quarters. Saratoga just added a down comforter to the dorm yesterday. It's so warm."

"..."

Major General Jenkins fell silent immediately.

However, Luo had no intention of letting the old general go.

He took a brand-new book from the head maid behind him and slammed it heavily into the old man's arms.

"What the hell is this thing?"

The old man hurriedly took the book that Rob had sent him, and then looked at it closely.

"The MS Fleet Command Guide? What is this? You think I'm a greenhorn?!"

The old man, realizing what was happening, almost smashed his pipe over Rob's head.

It was clear that he was a little angry.

"Let's be reasonable. Commanding newly equipped ships and traditional ships are two completely different things, okay?"

"Don't you think you're no longer a recruit?"

The old man stared at the book cover for a long time before finally accepting Rob's "gift".

"Old man, now you're a newbie again."

"I'll give you a piece of advice."

"If you're bad at it, just practice more."

"Perfect timing. I'm planning to arrange a joint exercise between several factions in a while."

"Don't make it look too bad!"

Chapter 852: The Unicorn's Wake-up Service (Just kidding)

On the sea, Pennsylvania was panting heavily.

The pressure she felt came not only from the unicorn on the other side.

Having just completed her costume change, she hadn't yet fully transitioned from traditional shipboard to "Gundam girl" habits.

One of her most notable characteristics is that she prefers to fight while gliding over the sea.

At the same time, she felt that there seemed to be a barrier between herself and the "new ship equipment" she was wearing.

She cannot use this new power entirely at will.

Of course, it is undeniable that the unicorn, whose face still held a hint of shyness, made her feel an indescribable pressure.

Since the start of the exercise, the opposing Unicorn has never even taken out its own weapons.

She suppressed him simply by using those few freely floating shields.

At this point, Pennsylvania no longer wanted to consider why those shields, which seemed to have no power mechanism at all, were much more agile in the air than she was.

"Wow, the difference is really that big..."

A wry smile flashed across Pennsylvania's face, and she rallied her spirits once more.

Since the "referee" has not yet declared her defeat, she will not easily give up her own battle.

Gripping her Magnum rifle tightly, Pennsylvania once again focused all her attention on the unicorn.

...

"So that's how it is..."

Compared to Pennsylvania, which is under immense pressure, Unicorn seems much more relaxed.

From the start of this exercise, she had been observing the other side's situation.

After several exchanges, she had a general idea of what was going on.

"Did my brother call the unicorn over because of this?"

"Hmm! The unicorn understands!"

The girl nodded vigorously, making her plans for the future.

...

"Big sister Pennsylvania, this machine isn't used like that~"

"Well, in other words, it's not fully awake yet."

"So, next, the unicorn will try to wake him up."

"Wait, remember to remember this feeling~"

The voice of a unicorn came through the communication channel.

This forced Pennsylvania to halt its already-launched attack.

"Hello? What is that?"

She didn't understand anything the girl opposite her was saying!

...

Before Pennsylvania could react, the thrusters on the back of the unicorn suddenly spewed out a large ball of flame.

The unicorn sliced through the waves and headed straight for Pennsylvania, which was not far away.

Around her, several floating shields formed a formidable defensive line.

"Damn, tactics?"

Thinking to himself that the unicorn opposite him was really wicked, Pennsylvania tried to aim at his opponent while retreating to create some distance.

She wasn't sure how good her opponent was at close combat, but she knew for sure that she was no match for him.

However, Pennsylvania's plan to distance itself ultimately failed.

She didn't even last very long.

The tiny unicorn lifted its feet off the sea and floated in mid-air.

Her hands gripped Pennsylvania's arms tightly.

"It's over——"

At this point, Pennsylvania knew that the exercise had ended in failure.

...

To Pennsylvania's surprise, the unicorn did not launch a decisive attack under these circumstances.

But a strange sound came from the unicorn and reached Pennsylvania's ears.

In her eyes, the unicorn's armor was opening, revealing a skeleton that shimmered with a soft green fluorescence.

"!!!"
