Come and connect with me!

The great sage pursed his lips and glanced at Akagi timidly.

"Unfortunately, the price is not just this level. If I had known earlier that my return would require the sacrifice of the entire Sakura Empire..."

Before Amagi could finish his words, he was interrupted by Musashi.

"The entire Sakura Empire?"

At the same time, with a crackling sound, Shentong stood up with a look of horror, and the coffee table was overturned. However, no one paid attention to this little thing now. The blue-haired fox only spoke to Akagi in a lost voice.

"Are you completely crazy?"

“Well, there’s nothing I can do about it. If I want to reap a miracle, I must be willing to give up everything. As long as I can save Sister Amagi, I’m willing to give up anything!”

Akagi smiled complacently, and Tiancheng could only sigh. While she was angry at her sister for not fighting back, she couldn't help but be moved by her. Now that Akagi's situation has become what it is now, she, as her sister, is inseparable from it. Everyone has the right to blame Akagi, except her.

"So who are you trading with? The Siren? The port? Or the White Eagles?"

Yamato's voice sounded very calm. The more anxious the moment, the calmer she seemed. If it weren't for the fact that there were things only she could do, she would still be the flagship of the Sakura Empire at this moment, and Akagi would not have been able to take the stage at all.

"Minato, I'm curious, Yamato, why do you think the people from White Eagle can help me?"

Akagi was at the top, looking down at Yamato, who was a head shorter than her.

"There are not many doctors like Stott in the royal family."

As he said this, Yamato's expression turned cold.

"I will not accept this ridiculous price of yours, and neither will the Sakura Empire. Akagi, from now on, you are no longer the flagship."

She stood up slowly, her long golden hair falling on her shoulders, her emerald eyes full of severity. Yamato swept his gaze across the entire audience and spoke in a stern tone.

"Since everyone is here, it's a good time to take a vote. I propose to abolish Akagi's position as the flagship."

As soon as he finished speaking, hands were immediately raised high. Akagi, who had never been able to gain enough loyalty, was obviously very disappointing this time. Even the lazy Shinano raised his hand with a serious face.

Nagato opened his eyes, looking helpless, and also raised his hands.

Looking at this scene, Akagi smiled without surprise, and in everyone's surprised eyes, she also raised her arm, but she was still holding a red brocade bag in her hand. Tiancheng's pupils shrank when he saw it, and the next moment, the brocade bag opened, and a projection suddenly appeared in the air.

"...Since I have said this to this extent, and you are still so stubborn, I have no choice but to fight!"

As soon as this voice came out, everyone looked at Tiancheng. The latter opened his mouth slightly and saw Chicheng's face froze. He hurriedly closed the brocade bag, then grabbed a bunch of brocade bags from his sleeve. After comparing them carefully, he carefully opened the opening and said with a look of amnesty.

"Hey, this is Sister Tiancheng's secret weapon!"

Chapter 1108: A Magical Plan Part 2

The newly appeared projection is the familiar Amagi. This familiarity is not only in the face and personality, but also in the memories of the past, the Amagi who was high-spirited, full of confidence, and believed by everyone to be able to help Sakura Empire move towards a better future.

"Good day everyone. I think Akagi's actions should bother you. If Yamato is still here, he should be ready to impeach Akagi."

Along with the voice, there also appeared a gentle-looking Tiancheng. She had a relaxed expression and looked like she had everything under control.

"Not ready, but already."

Yamato looked at Amagi on the light screen and said dissatisfiedly.

"I think someone would argue with me at this moment, but this is just a video."

Amagi on the light screen seemed to have thought of something and said with a smile, which made Yamato's eyebrows jump.

"Haha, let's stop talking nonsense. For the sake of my other self not to be beaten by you, I'd better get straight to the point."

She pondered for a moment and then her smile faded.

"My master intends to take over the whole world, and Sakura Empire is no exception. Therefore, I also took advantage of Akagi and made a bet with her. If you can see me, I think the other me has been resurrected. You should know what this means, right?"

Yamato crossed his arms and whispered in a complicated tone.

"Ah, I know."

Being able to revive the dead may be difficult to define as good or bad on the ethical and moral level, but it is a different story on the battlefield. A fearless soldier is enough to fight ten enemies at once, and a fearless Rubik's Cube ship can at least hold down three of the same level. Any camp that has this trick can exert a force on the battlefield that needs to be calculated according to multiples of the actual number.

"But don't forget that your port area does not have an advantage in numbers. With only a few dozen cube ships, you can only occupy a small camp at best. You can only bully the Free Iris... Well, now that they have merged, they are not so vulnerable."

Yamato groaned.

"Someone should have made excuses by now, saying that there are not enough people or strength, or that the battle line is too long and will pass through other camps. At least the Iron Blood Principality, as an ally of the Red Axis, will definitely take action, right?"

On the light screen, Tiancheng said with a firm tone.

"If that's the case, I'm going to pour a bucket of cold water on you."

She said with a smile.

"The Iron Blood Principality has joined the port area a long time ago. Bismarck is even in the port area. Compared with the coastal routes controlled by the Sakura Empire, the Iron Blood can do a lot."

As Amagi spoke, the light screen changed, and everyone could clearly see Bismarck, Hutten, and Prince Eugen receiving new ship equipment together. This scene certainly could not shake the cognition of those present. After all, facing a guy who bluntly said that he wanted Sakura Empire, he was undoubtedly an enemy, and the enemy's words could not be trusted.

"Oh, by the way, if you don't believe me, you can try asking the spies planted in Iron Blood."

As this sentence was finished, the screen dimmed, and it was obvious that the film in this treasure bag was only this long.

Yamato looked at the fearless Akagi with an unpleasant expression.

"Musashi, can you find anyone who can corroborate what she said?"

"It's hard to say. If it's Amagi, she may have bribed those spies, but it's obviously impossible for her to make all the spies defect... No, if she only bribed some of the spies, then our approach of sacrificing the big for the small might also fall into her trap... Alas, if Amagi is on the opposite side, it will be really difficult to deal with her."

No matter how powerful a spy is, he is still a human being. Human beings will change, have their own ideas, and can be turned against them. However, in Musashi's opinion, doing so is actually intended to create a gap between them and the spies planted in Iron-Blood. After all, skepticism will eventually lead to a situation where nothing can be trusted.

"Let's take a look first and then talk."

Yamato also thought of this and looked grim.

"No, I have a way to try."

Amagi's voice rang out, and everyone looked at Akagi, but the latter looked forward in surprise, only to see the soul of Amagi from Sakura Empire said solemnly.

"If you want to verify the authenticity, isn't it enough to contact Bismarck directly?"

She seemed a little excited to be able to face off against another self.

"Let me talk to her. If she is not surprised by my presence, then it means that Minato and Iron Blood are indeed having an affair. Otherwise, it is just a trick to confuse the enemy."

If you can't trust spies, don't trust them, but you can always trust the Iron Blood flagship.

Meteora watched all this calmly. She saw Amagi of the Sakura Empire turn on the communicator with the help of Yamato and the others, and contact her in the name of Yamato.

"Hi, Bismarck."

After the call was connected, Tiancheng couldn't wait to say hello.

Opposite the light screen was Bismarck. She had changed her usual military uniform and was wearing casual clothes. The moment she saw Amagi, she frowned slightly.

"Today's half hour is over. There is no reason for me to stay with him anymore. I am indeed a subordinate of Minato, but I am also just his subordinate. If he can't help it, let him find someone else!"

Beep, the communication ends.

The shrine suddenly went quiet, and finally it was Nagato who made a startled sound.

"So frivolous and rude?"

Shinano's eyes were wandering, she bit her lips shyly, and stared blankly into the air.

The reactions of the rest were not so minor.

"Bismarck actually went to that port area without telling us?"

"This is crazy, this is crazy. If this is true, things will be bad."

"But don't you think that Wuming is quite courageous? He even dared to provoke that Bismarck woman."

After several people talked in noisy tones for a while, Yamato's voice was suddenly heard.

"quiet!"

She pressed her forehead and spoke weakly.

"Okay, let's assume that's the case. Chicheng, open the brocade bag in the order that Tiancheng gave you. She is really confident. Does she want to imitate that military advisor and use the brocade bag to attack our hearts remotely?"

"Haha, that's my elder sister... um, I mean, elder sister Amagi is very smart."

Akagi smiled triumphantly, but from the corner of his eye he could see a look of surprise on Tiancheng's face. He immediately shut his mouth in embarrassment and opened the brocade bag.

"I think you have already managed to confirm the truth of my words. So, under the premise that we will definitely win, I want to tell you about the benefits of joining the port area and the treatment you can get. After all, I don't want to harm the Sakura Empire. On the contrary, I also hope that the Sakura Empire can develop better."

Tiancheng on the light screen said leisurely.

"Although Sakura Empire can meet the people's material needs with the help of the sacred tree, this is undoubtedly to minimize Sakura Empire's dependence on the outside world. However, the sacred tree and the sacred stone are not so stable. The existence of the shrine maidens is to manage the sacred tree system. About one-fifth of Sakura Empire's magic cube ships are shrine maidens, which means that Sakura Empire can only respond to external crises with 80% of its strength. The port area's efficiency in using energy is far higher than that of the sacred tree. Three material converters can meet all the life needs of the people of Sakura Empire."

Everyone in the shrine seemed to hear the crisp sound of chess pieces falling to the ground, and the person holding the chess pieces smiled at them on the light screen.

"How about this condition?"

Chapter 1109 Will Win

What are the conditions?

Yamato frowned slightly.

The conditions are certainly quite good. Unlike the Royal White Eagle, which has the first-mover advantage and sufficient financial resources to conduct research in multiple fields at the same time, the focus of the Sakura Empire is and can only be the Divine Tree system that combines Shinto rituals, the Magic Cube, and the people's will. After the sea was blocked, the number of available waterways became fewer, and the daily cargo volume was certainly not that high. This means that the problem of food alone would put the Sakura Empire in a dilemma. Finally, after many wise men spent countless efforts, the Divine Tree system was established to solve the problem of food.

The magic cube can provide energy, and the willpower can outline the blueprint. When the two are added together, the crops in the land can mature rapidly and all kinds of meat livestock can be adequately supplied. However, this seemingly omnipotent divine tree system also has its own drawbacks.

That is, the people's thoughts can only be unified when the situation becomes urgent.

For example, in the beginning, when Sakura Empire became an isolated island in the sea, people were poorly clothed and hungry, so they prayed for food. However, after being full, this wish would be divided into [getting rich], [getting promoted], and even [fulfilling their dreams].

But the problem is, without the supply of those cravings for satisfaction, the harvest of crops cannot be so exaggerated. The sacred tree system, which is essentially to collect people's wishes and realize them, is also becoming more and more difficult to use. Even if the entire Sakura Empire has established branches of the sacred tree, appearing in the form of shrines, supplemented by various functional plug-ins named after gods, and given easy-to-distinguish names such as [Agricultural God] and [Commerce God] to facilitate people to provide wishes, it is still necessary to continuously import food from abroad. At the same time, it cannot cut off cooperation with Iron and Blood to obtain its unique biotechnology, so as to meet the basic needs of the people in this era.

In other words, after overcoming the crisis, the Divine Tree system of Sakura Empire has become the culprit that forced Sakura Empire to become a place of defense and a new crisis that hinders the development of Sakura Empire. At the same time, due to its characteristics, once it encounters an invasion war, the people's will will be united and their strength will be doubled, which often makes defense extremely easy. This further increases the difficulty of replacing the Divine Tree system. Over time, the true power and influence of Sakura Empire, which is trapped in one place, have become increasingly mysterious under the ever-changing external changes. It is even believed to possess a power far stronger than that of Iron and Blood. However, only insiders of Sakura Empire know how embarrassing and dangerous Sakura Empire is at this moment.

"......Wait a mininute."

Shentong looked at Yamato who was deep in thought, pacing, and spoke.

"Don't be fooled, guys."

She warned loudly.

"The Sakura Empire is as strong as a rock. We don't need to bet at this time. I admit that Minato is very powerful. Outside, the Sakura Empire can hardly compete with them. But now it's not only the people of Minato who can choose the battlefield, but also us. If your trump card is Iron Blood, then please go back, Lord Akagi. It won't scare us."

Shikigami-type ship equipment, talisman-type ammunition, and the sacred tree system that connects the entire Sakura Empire. The Great Sage herself is also here. After entering the battle, her analytical ability and auxiliary calculations are enough to make this already amazing power even better. Anyone with a brain knows that facing a tortoise shell like the Sakura Empire, rashly investing too much strength but being unable to defeat it cleanly will only give opponents who see an opportunity a reason to take action. At that time, even a camp like the White Eagles will be in a tough battle.

Yamato said nothing, but just looked at Akagi, who immediately rummaged for the brocade bag and tore it open in front of everyone.

"Oh, really, it seems that I have to use this trick."

Tiancheng on the light screen seemed a little unwilling, and this emotion made the people present itchy.

"Then take it out, Tiancheng. I am looking forward to your trump card."

Musashi laughed out loud. She would never worry about the strength of her enemy. As she claimed to be the protector of the Sakura Empire, there was no reason for her to retreat without a fight.

"I guess your trump card should be the increase in the power of the main island of Sakura and the power of the sacred tree. There is only one way to break this strategy."

Tiancheng sat up straight in front of the light screen and said seriously.

"We will defeat you who possess the power of the sacred tree and the power of prayer head-on on this island!"

There was a sudden silence in the shrine, followed by Yamato's cold laughter.

"Hahahahahaha, I really, really am being looked down upon!"

The blonde girl with fox ears suddenly raised her head, her deep blue eyes filled with rage and murderous intent. She stared at Akagi, who had cold sweat oozing from his forehead. He felt an unprecedented sense of crisis and had the illusion that he was in big trouble.

"So, what's in the next treasure bag? If it's just a bluff to provoke me, then I have to praise you. You have succeeded!"

Yamato opened his five fingers, and Akagi, who was facing his palm, suddenly stiffened. The infinite pressure from the surroundings came all at once, as if to crush her into powder!

"Well."

Akagi gritted his teeth and stared at Yamato with no sign of avoidance in his eyes.

"Now everyone except us should treat you as the flagship. Your flagship authority is still there, why not use it?"

"I, I believe in my elder sister!"

Some time ago, Akagi used her ability to capture Shokaku, but now, the situation has changed and it is Yamato's turn to do this to her.

"Ha, that's really touching, but your sister is here, not in that port area, Akagi, you really, really disappoint me!"

Yamato looked at the treasure sachet, and after he said that, the light screen of Amagi was shattered, and it was obvious that the playing time of this treasure sachet had ended.
