Azur Lane Mobile Front.

This time, no one chose to move towards the outer sea area.

Everyone accelerated and sped forward.

From Luo Bo's perspective in the director's office, he could see that, apart from the teams from Donghuang and Baiying, the others had adopted a more dispersed approach to their marches.

"Is this... preparing to scout ahead?"

Chapter 941: Zhenhai's Mocking Attack

"Hey, Warwear, why don't we just observe from the sidelines first?"

"You'll have to wait until tonight to unleash your full potential, won't you?"

The little swan timidly asked the leader, Warwear.

Although the other party was a senior member of the Royal Navy, he was actually quite amiable towards them, the destroyers.

Otherwise, the little swan wouldn't dare to ask questions so casually.

"Ah~ that's how it is in theory~"

"But—there are some people who will absolutely never let us hide away."

Warspite gazed indifferently at the sky ahead.

When was the last time I soared freely through the sky like this?

That feeling is truly something to miss—

...

Perhaps, in this world, things often happen by chance.

The Royal Fleet's initial position was directly above the Iris Theocracy's fleet.

Although the distance was relatively far, after conducting a thorough reconnaissance, both sides discovered each other's presence.

"Looks like we're in pretty good luck, aren't we?"

Algeria's tone was light, but her expression was quite cold.

Marseillaise knew that this was a sign that Algeria was now in a state of combat readiness.

"Everyone, turn around."

"Our target has appeared!"

...

Iris can spot the royals, and the royals can naturally spot irises as well.

The aircraft used for reconnaissance were all mass-produced models, none of them were significantly more advanced than the others.

When information about the Iris Kingdom's ships reached Warspite, the old lady finally managed a bitter smile.

"This is truly the worst-case scenario—"

"Ah, never mind—"

Warwear shook his head; how could a legend of the sea be afraid of battle?

She rallied her spirits, led her fleet in an arc through the air, and then turned and charged directly towards the Iris Kingdom's forces.

Since battle is unavoidable, let's face it head-on!

...

"All units, report the situation."

As soon as Niya Gamama arrived, Zhenhai waved his round fan and checked the status of all the ships once again.

"Everything is normal, no target detected."

Soon, replies from the various ships appeared on the communication channel.

"Hmm~ It's much slower than I expected—"

Zhenhai curled his lips into a cold smile.

"Everyone, we are the strongest team of all, right?"

Zhenhai's question caused the other ships to pause slightly.

They couldn't figure out what their "captain" was up to.

However, Zuikaku quickly responded first.

"Of course!"

"Heh—since everyone thinks that way, then I'm going to do something special~."

"As the strongest, how can I prove myself without winning in the most spectacular way?"

As he spoke, Zhenhai turned on the ship's communicator and connected to the public channel.

"Gentlemen, I am right here. If you want to challenge me, then come on—"

"what?"

The sudden turn of events in Zhenhai stunned not only Baltimore and the others, but even Rob in the director's office.

He and the other members of the directing team looked at each other, their eyes filled with confusion.

"Oh, so that's your plan?"

However, Tiancheng, who was also a strategist, quickly understood Zhenhai's purpose in doing so.

She smiled and whispered a few words in Rob's ear.

In an instant, the doubt on Luo's face vanished.

"Ah~ if that's the case, then that's certainly a great idea."

"Of course, when they come back, those who deserve punishment will still be punished."

Luo Bo nodded, indicating that he understood Zhenhai's actions, but that did not mean he would not pursue the matter further.

After all, making fun of someone in a group chat is a bit much.

"Oh dear, my lord, I have a feeling that Zhenhai will be particularly looking forward to your punishment?"

The folding fan tapped slightly at Rob's waist, making him shudder immediately.

With his eyes slightly narrowed, Tiancheng conveyed to Luo Bo through his expression that he knew everything.

...

In the exercise area, Zhenhai's sudden move brought all the teams except for the Royal Navy and Iris to a halt.

They looked at each other, their eyes filled with the same confusion as Rob's had just been.

As for why the Royal and Iris didn't react.

Of course, they're already engaged in combat and don't have time!

"Ms. Warspite, I never imagined you would be so accomplished in close combat."

"Hmph~ Don't underestimate the unsinkable legend, little girl!"

Feeling provoked, Warspite smirked, but increased the pressure on his hands.

However, Marseille, who was fighting her, said calmly, "No, Ms. Warspite is a respected figure even in Iris."

"Huh?"

Then, with the force of the Marseillaise, Warspite was pulled back a distance.

Marseillaise doesn't seem to have any intention of catching up.

Looking at Marseillaise, who had a serious expression on his face not far away, Warspite suddenly felt that the other person had just been... serious?

Immediately, a feeling of guilt arose in the old lady's heart.

Having spent so much time in the royal family, I seem to have gotten used to communicating with others in a way that hides daggers behind smiles.

Is this a good kid?

Unfortunately, Warspite was wrong about the Marseillaise.

This iris-themed battle angel is far too naive.

In her mind, all tasks ultimately boil down to two questions: Where to go? Who to kill?

Now, all she can think about is cutting down Warspite.

"..."

Marseille pursed her lips.

The opponent had just retreated, which gave her another opportunity.

At this distance, it's highly unlikely that the Ghost Phoenix Arrow can be used.

Since that's the case, I'll have to resort to another tactic.

With that thought in mind, Marseille raised the beam saber in his hand.

The next second, a strange light began to emanate from her body.

Her figure seemed to begin to sway slightly.

However, upon closer inspection, the Marseillaise appears to float quietly in place.

Those swaying "figures" were actually extra shadows that had appeared on her body.

"!!!"

This strange sight immediately put war-weary on high alert.

"Oh dear, why do modern ships seem to like using such powerful attacks right from the start?"

No sooner had the words of war-weariness been spoken than Marseillaise vanished from the spot.

Warspite didn't see where Marseillaise went, but her body moved first.

She whirled around, her beam saber held horizontally in front of her, blocking Marseille's slash.

"..."

Having failed in his first attack, Marseillaise vanished once again.

"This time—it's here!"

Seeing that the enemy had disappeared, War-weary did not choose to sit idly by and wait for her death.

Relying on her intuition honed through years of battlefield experience, she fired a beam of light into the open sky.

The next moment, the Marseillaise that had just disappeared reappeared.

The attack that Warspite had just fired hit her squarely.

However, the Archangel's beam shield blocked the beam shot, but also forcibly interrupted her Mirage Seal.

Chapter 942: Hello, your skills still require unlocking conditions

"Have the Royal Navy and the Iris already started fighting?"

"Should we say they were lucky, or unlucky?"

At the director's headquarters, Rob looked at the battle situation in the exercise area and shook his head with a wry smile.

"Heh~ For us, of course we were lucky."

Jean Bart crossed his arms, his crimson eyes fixed intently on the screen, as if afraid of missing any detail.

"Ah~ Of course, for the royal family, it's definitely considered bad luck."

"Who knows, they might be the first to be eliminated in both exercises~"

As if he had foreseen the disheveled state of Huang Jian's ships, a smile unconsciously crept onto Bal's lips.

"you--"

Queen Elizabeth immediately lost her temper when faced with Jean Bart's open mockery.

She gripped the scepter tightly in her hand, glaring fiercely at Jean Bart.

But Bal was quite pleased with her expression, and his smile even brightened.
