Come and connect with me!

"Then, the second one!"

The female warrior's laughter became more and more hearty, and she also found the second node. Every ray of fire in the sea of ​​​​fire could become Akagi's eyes and ears. But just seeing it did not mean that she could have any solution to the current situation. She could only watch the female warrior swinging the wild sword in her hand and chopping the invisible and intangible nodes of the formation.

At this moment, most of the flames had dissipated. In the sea of ​​fire that spread to the entire city, the female warrior stood at the edge of the shattered node, looking far away in the direction of Akagi, grinning silently.

Akagi watched all this happen in silence, her face becoming increasingly gloomy. However, as the nodes were destroyed, the loss of the Mind Cube was greatly reduced, and her strength was gradually recovering. However, Bailong, who was obsessed with destroying all the nodes, was still swinging his sword tirelessly, and it was obvious that the energy he consumed was not insignificant. As a tactic, this was certainly not a bad tactic, but it was contrary to the easy victory she had imagined, which made her unhappy.

A few minutes later, the temperature of the burning underwater city gradually returned to normal, and the heat was gone, as if everything before was just an illusion. Only the charred black color on the female warrior's body silently reminded everyone that the sea of ​​fire had indeed burned the entire city.

"Well, let's fight head-on. But you're wearing clothes that are not convenient for movement, so I'm afraid you're not good at close combat."

Bai Long tightly grasped the katana, the nearly three-meter-long blade flashed with cold light, and every time it was swung, there was a slight sound of tearing cloth, as if it was cutting through the space itself, giving people an unparalleled sense of danger.

Akagi watched her approach step by step, and a red sword blade burst out from her wide sleeves with a hiss. She shaped the scorching fox fire into a weapon. This extremely high temperature could make anyone who looked down on her suffer.

"Hold on, Akagi!"

Bailong shouted loudly, raised the long sword above his head with both hands, and swung it down suddenly. Akagi's eyes moved, and he raised the Fox Fire Sword Blade, and at the same time ignited Bailong's extremely sharp sword. With the help of the marks left by the broken nodes on the blade, the female warrior's sword turned into a hot iron in an instant!

"when!"

An unexpected change occurred. Under Akagi's operation, Bailong subconsciously let go of her hand. Even though she reacted immediately and wanted to hold it tightly, she was hit from bottom to top by Akagi's Fox Fire Sword. The whole long sword flew out of her hand, hit Xuan'er in the air, flew behind Bailong, and pierced straight into the floor.

The next moment, Bai Long's body trembled and she froze. She lowered her head in disbelief and looked at her empty hands. Her originally strong expression changed and she seemed to have lost her spirit. She pursed her lips and her voice became pitiful.

"My sword..."

Having said this, Bai Long looked at Akagi who had a wary look on his face and said dejectedly.

"I lost."

Chapter 1068 The World and Sakura Empire

"As expected of Lord Akagi!"

"Oh!!! Akagi-sama Kakuichi!"

"My dear elder sister, I was actually worried about this at the time. It turns out that I don't know you well enough. This is also within your expectations, right?"

Surrounded by three excited companions, Akagi looked calm and it was completely impossible to tell how confused she was.

What happened?

Akagi remained calm and thought in his mind.

Why did she vote?

Thinking of this, she raised her head and looked at the female warrior Bailong not far away.

The originally red hostile guy, after his sword was knocked down, became a controllable green unit. At this moment, he was holding her precious sword tightly, not daring to let go for a moment. However, after feeling her gaze, he behaved quite convinced and nodded at her seriously, obviously having been conquered.

I don’t understand. I don’t understand at all.

Health points, stamina bar, and blue bar, these are what Akagi has, and they are basically full.

Bailong had health points and stamina, which were only partially reduced. How could he suddenly surrender? Her victory was inexplicable. Just thinking about Bailong's changes before and after he lost his weapon, she could only come to the conclusion that Bailong was a guy who valued weapons as much as his life.

"Well, since you are willing to follow me, then activate the submarine and follow us back to the main island of Sakura."

After hesitating for a while, Akagi gave the order.

"No problem. I still have some awareness of being a defeated general."

Bai Long said in a deep voice.

"Well, follow me then."

With two noisy new and old fans around him, as well as his subdued subordinate Jia, Akagi boarded the submarine and rose towards the surface of the sea. Now that the goal had been achieved, there was no need to hide anymore. A combat force like Haku's could not be hidden for long, so it was better to show it openly in front of the world and let those villains know what they can and cannot mess with.

However, on the way back, Akagi looked at the pitch-black darkness outside the window. While immersed in the excitement of recruiting new people, he suddenly thought of the good times in the past and his face darkened.

"Kaga, do I have anything urgent to do in the next two days?"

Kaga, who was watching the two little guys chatting with Bailong, reacted immediately. After thinking for a moment, she spoke.

"Tomorrow we need to go to the Shrine Palace as usual, and the day after tomorrow afternoon, we need to meet with Lord Mikasa..."

"Then it's no big deal."

Akagi said calmly, causing Yudachi and Shimakaze to shrink their necks.

They knew that there were serious conflicts among the high-ranking officials of the Sakura Empire, but they did not expect that the conflicts among these nobles would be so serious that the regent was too lazy to wear a sword and shoes to enter the palace, and simply ignored the emperor himself, and even his political enemies disappeared.

"If, onee-sama feels that way... then it's really nothing."

Kaga hesitated for a moment and then spoke.

"Sister, is there anything you want to do?"

"Well, nothing much. I just thought of Sister Amagi. If she were still alive, how could the Sakura Empire become like this? How could those guys have the chance to roam the sea?"

Kaga listened in silence, his expression unchanged.

On Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, we reminisce about Tiancheng; on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays, we denounce the past; on weekends, we reminisce about Tiancheng and denounce the past.

This is basically my elder sister’s daily routine.

Akagi said this for a while, and suddenly a gentle smile appeared on his face again.

"Kaga, since there's nothing else to do, when we go back, prepare some sweets from the main island of Sakura and let's go to that port area."

Kaga nodded in understanding, and a smile appeared on his serious face.

"I understand, elder sister, leave this matter to me."

"By the way, don't forget to tell Wuming in advance."

"Ah."

The submarine of the Shigeki Sakura Empire carrying its planned warship was speeding towards the sea. The stirred undercurrent was surging on the seabed, but the sea surface was still calm.

But this calmness is only on the surface. A ship carrying the goddess of the kitchen is heading towards the port of White Eagle, where several Rubik's Cube ships are anxiously waiting for the arrival of the people.

In the royal White Tower, Her Majesty the Queen was overturning a table again and smashing exquisite works of art to pieces. She was still furious, but under the persuasion of her loyal subordinates, she gave up the idea of ​​taking a group of people to grab the Prince of Wales. She just kept looking at a certain place on the globe from time to time, as if she was thinking about something.

In the iron-blooded Prime Minister's palace, Bismarck, who had just resigned from his post, was packing his luggage, looking into the distance with a heavy expression, without saying a word.

When the whole world began to change, the main island of Sakura City also welcomed the agency flagship in the afternoon after an absence of a day and a night.

"Huh... The submarine is still too small. It feels stuffy."

Bailong walked out of the submarine carelessly, stepped on the ground of the dock, and breathed in the fresh air from the outside world. The air in the underwater city was no different from here, but perhaps because of the change in mood, or perhaps because of seeing a wider world, the female warrior felt that the salty sea breeze here was particularly sweet.

"You... forget it, remember to report yourself, and don't forget to report Lord Akagi's name."

Kaga turned his head worriedly and saw Akagi walking out of the submarine with a happy expression, so he said to Haku in a bad mood.

"Got it. If you have any instructions, feel free to ask me to do it!"

The female warrior held the katana in one hand and put it on her shoulder, and with the other hand she raised a thumb and pointed it at herself, with the posture of a bold ronin.

"what ever......"

Kaga shook his head helplessly. At this moment, in addition to Bailong, the two little guys also cheered and chased each other happily in the port. After a while, they disappeared.

“These little devils…”

Kaga muttered to himself in distress, feeling that every worry was gone.

"Kaga, don't forget to buy some snacks... No, let's prepare them when we leave tomorrow. Find a time to contact Wuming. I need to meet someone."

Akagi said softly, opening the folding fan with a click and shaking it gently. Seeing this scene, Bailong shuddered subconsciously and held the weapon tightly with a nervous look on his face.

The black fox didn't care about her emotions. It wagged its furry tail and walked slowly towards a castle tower on the main island of Sakura.

On that independent island, in the pavilion on the top floor, a girl with silver fox ears was rubbing her eyes sleepily and spoke as if she realized something.

"Prepare some tea. A guest is coming."

Chapter 1069 Dreams and Reality

"Gudong~"

As soon as Akagi stepped into the castle tower, fine rain began to fall over the island. The gathered rain fell in through the eaves, slid down the tall stone carps, and fell into the inland sea, splashing ripples.

"Akagi-dono, Lord Shinano is waiting for you on the top floor."

The waiter who came to greet them was a brown-haired girl with curly horns. She wore an elegant azure kimono and wooden clogs. She lowered her dark eyes and folded her hands on her stomach as she spoke calmly.

"Already? That's really unpleasant to say."

Akagi whispered, and the brown-haired girl opposite remained silent, showing no intention of expressing her opinion.

"You lead the way first."

Although dissatisfied with the guy's arrogance, Akagi was not petty enough to lose his temper with a subordinate, so he immediately ordered her to take action.

"Yes."

The brown-haired girl nodded, turned around with a capable look on her face, and headed towards the top floor of the building.

Fortunately, even though this castle tower looks quite ancient, it is actually still a building of this era, and it is fully equipped with elevators and other facilities, so visitors don't have to climb up several floors and get exhausted and sweaty like in ancient times.

"Is your name... Omi, or Suruga?"

Akagi and she stepped into the elevator together. Amid the barely audible vibration and sound, Akagi suddenly asked.

"My name is Suruga, Akagi-dono."

"Oh."

Akagi responded casually, and peace returned to this small space.

Not long after, the elevator door opened, and the girl named Suruga stepped aside and spoke to Akagi behind her.

"We're here, Lord Akagi."

Having said this, he was about to continue leading the way.

"Just back off."

"Hey, Lord Akagi, don't you need my service later?"

Suruga asked a little confused.

"No need, isn't there someone else inside?"

Akagi sneered.

"Eh......."

"No need to say more, just leave."

Akagi snapped open the fan, held it in his hand, and shook it slowly, walking outside step by step. Suruga stayed where he was, wanting to say something but stopped himself. He could only bow slightly, close the elevator door again, and control the elevator to go down.

"Really? Why did I change into these clothes in such a hurry?"

Suruga sighed, but his face relaxed a little. He had known that the new flagship Akagi was difficult to get along with, but he didn't expect her to have such a bad temper. He didn't know if Lord Shinano could handle it...

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but wipe the sweat off her forehead. Although she looked calm, she felt extremely stressed being with the famous Lord Akagi. She looked around, picked off the leaves that were stuck to her head, and with a puff, raccoon ears popped out from her hair.

"I feel much better now. Let's go down and have some cake. If I keep serving such troublesome people, I will definitely shorten my life..."

Muttering to herself, she walked out of the elevator. Since she had nothing to do, she might as well take the afternoon as a day off. Lord Shinano was well fed and well slept, so he didn't need her anyway.

A worker who was glad to have the chance to slack off left, but the two people who stayed in the upper echelons were still in confrontation.

"Akagi... Your Highness, how is the child?"

"That wild cat can be used at least."

As he said this, Akagi frowned slightly as he looked at the tired-looking white fox.

"Today shouldn't be the sixth day of the New Year, is it really okay to relax like this?"

"Nagato-sama, at that time, I didn't say that I was lazy..."

The light words made Akagi look a little cold. She put the folding fan in front of her eyes, looked at this lazy guy steadily, and closed the fan with a snap.

"Your Highness Akagi, what do you want?"

Shinano opened her hands with great effort, stretched beautifully, and asked in a confused tone.

"Whatever I want, you have to find a way to do it, right?"
