Lin Lan felt that at this moment, he finally remembered what his original intention of playing Azur Lane was.

juvenile,

Do you crave power? No, I crave.jpg.

This heartwarming scene also made Akagi and Taiho on the side unconsciously clench their teeth and narrow their eyes.

Unlike the children on the destroyer, although Kashino was just a transport ship with no combat capability, the threat it posed to them was enormous.

The commander personally arranged for Kashino to serve as the secretary ship, which definitely ranked her among the top three among the many ship girls in the entire port area.

Why is it that it is just a transport ship, but has such a cheating weapon to seduce the commander?

But even so, they forced themselves to suppress their unhappiness.

After all, Kashino can be considered as a natural and nice guy. Not only does he have a good relationship with them, he also has a very harmonious relationship with the ship girls from other camps. It's hard to dislike him.

Moreover, as the unique transport ship girl of the Sakura Empire, Kashino had also provided transportation for the Yamato-class Musashi and Shinano ship equipment parts, and was deeply trusted by them.

"That's all, that's all..."

Looking at Kashino who had buried most of Lin Lan's head in his arms, the two carrier girls chose to turn their heads away at the same time.

Anyway, the commander has been found, so they have plenty of time to take action and there is no need to be jealous at this time.

What they need to think about most now is how to report to the Son of God Nagato and Mikasa.

After a long while, Kashino finally released Lin Lan from his arms. He looked at the blushing Lin Lan with a pair of misty purple eyes and smiled gently:

"Commander, I didn't expect you to be able to return on New Year's Eve. I'm sure everyone will be very happy~"

"Oh no, I didn't prepare a New Year's gift for you. This is my fault, oooo..."

Speaking of today being New Year's Eve, Kashino suddenly remembered her negligence and said with some self-blame and grievance.

"Well, to be honest, we didn't expect to reach Snow Sakura Island so quickly. This is definitely not your fault."

Lin Lan, with the residual smell of milk still on his face, naturally could not blame Kashino. He raised his hand, patted Kashino's head gently, and smiled with emotion.

After all, before today, who could have known that they could use the teleportation service provided by that traitor Siren?

After comforting the lovely ox-horned transport ship Kashino, he also turned his attention to the two heavy cruiser girls behind Kashino.

"Commander, welcome back."

"My Lord, who awakened Ibuki from his eternal dream, welcome home."

Takao and Ibuki noticed his gaze and both smiled elegantly and bowed to him.

"Long time no see, Kaohsiung, Ibuki, I'm sorry to have worried you."

Lin Lan certainly understood how much the two heavy cruiser girls missed him during the days he was gone, so he hurriedly spoke.

Not to mention Kaohsiung, the black-haired swordsman with a neat ponytail, she was one of the ship girls who joined his port area in the earliest days when he started playing the game.

Kaohsiung and her second sister Atago, the most famous first-generation driver princess of the Port area, were the first ship girls he cultivated to the maximum level when he formed the front line of the Sakura Empire team. They were definitely the mainstay of his Sakura Empire camp in the Port area in the early stage.

Especially Kaohsiung. If he remembered correctly, she should be the second super rare heavy cruiser girl he obtained after Prinz Eugen, and also one of the earliest ship girls he swore to.

As for the sword-wielding shrine maiden Ibuki, who is dressed in a white dress and has long dark blue hair and looks like a dream, there is no need to say more.

This heavy cruiser girl who calls him "Master" is a first-phase scientific research ship. Her powerful double pre-loaded torpedoes are her absolute trump card in forming a complete Thunderstorm Team.

The so-called Thunderstorm Team is the distinctive front-line formation of the Sakura Empire camp. The Sakura Empire camp is also the camp in his port area that is best at using torpedoes in combat, without a doubt.

Like the Thunder Patrol girl Ibuki in front of him, as well as Shimakaze and Ayanami, they are all the main players of the Thunderstorm Team who have the title of "Thunder King".

Although the Thunderstorm Team is no longer the mainstream team as the game version changes, Lin Lan still can't forget the pleasure of killing the boss with a round of torpedoes.

Lin Lan greeted the two long-unseen heavy cruiser girls. Before they could talk for a few more words, Musashi slowly walked over and said to Takao and Ibuki with a slightly worried tone:

"Although it is a pity to interrupt your reunion with the Commander at this time, the Commander has more important things to do now."

After Musashi finished speaking, he paused and asked the two heavy cruiser girls with a serious look:

"How is Tiancheng's health these past two days? Has there been any unexpected situation?"

Chapter 627 Hasty Landing on the Island

Hearing what Musashi said, Akagi hurriedly strode over from beside Kaga.

Lin Lan noticed that Chicheng's face, which always had a confident smile, now showed deep anxiety and worry.

The ship girls on other decks also noticed the change in topic and fell silent.

"Yes, how is Sister Tiancheng's health these days?"

Akagi stared at Takao and Ibuki, asking without hiding his anxious expression.

This was the first time Lin Lan had seen Akagi like this.

The white fox girl Kaga followed Akagi's steps and walked over. Like Akagi, she didn't say anything, but her frosty expression also showed her inner worries.

Ibuki felt everyone's eyes on him and was a little overwhelmed for a moment. He turned his head to look at Kaohsiung.

Only a few Sakura Empire shipgirls knew about Lord Amagi's physical condition. She only knew that Lord Amagi was transferred from Lord Miko's residence early this morning and no one knew where he went.

But as a senior in the Sakura Empire, Kaohsiung must know more than her.

Sure enough, after taking a deep breath, Kaohsiung restrained his faint smile, looked at Lin Lan and Musashi standing next to Lin Lan, and reported in a deep voice:

"Although Lady Amagi's health has deteriorated since the departure of the others, Lady Shenzi created a small barrier for her, and the deterioration has been curbed."

"But just this morning, Lady Miko and Senior Mikasa urgently sent Lord Amagi to the sacred tree. I...that's all I know."

When Lin Lan heard this, his expression changed instantly.

He didn't expect that an accident would happen in Tiancheng just this morning.

Before Lin Lan could anxiously lead the fleet into the Holy Land, Musashi looked at Kaohsiung in confusion and continued to ask:

"The Imperial Sacred Tree? The branches that the Great Sage brought from the port area sprouted in such a short time?"

"That's right. The sacred tree planted by the great sage on the top of the mountain sprouted the day before yesterday, and the great sage has already entered the interior of the sacred tree barrier in advance."

Kaohsiung answered with a firm tone.

Lin Lan noticed that after hearing these words, Musashi, Akagi and Kaga all breathed a sigh of relief as if a huge rock had been lifted from their hearts.

"So you should first explain to me what the Imperial Sacred Tree is. Is Tiancheng out of danger now?"

Lin Lan asked blankly.

He had seen a photo of the scenery of the Sakura Empire camp in his port area on Ayanami's computer lock screen wallpaper a few days ago, and remembered that there was a towering tree there.

Perhaps the effects and settings of the sacred tree of the Sakura Blossoms were mentioned in the game plot, but he skipped it directly.

"Commander, Tiancheng's physical deterioration still needs you to cure it. The Imperial Sacred Tree can only delay the deterioration. In order to save time, I will take you to the Imperial Sacred Tree barrier first. On the way, I will explain to you what the Imperial Sacred Tree is."

When Musashi heard the questions raised by Lin Lan, he first explained to him Amagi's current physical condition.

Then the purple-haired fox lady suddenly bent down, picked him up like a princess, and leaped from the deck into the sea in one step.

Before Lin Lan could even react, the feeling of weightlessness from falling stopped with the sound of splashing waves.

He is in Musashi's arms

He carried it down, and in the blink of an eye, he was already on the sea surface.

The magnificent battleship had unfolded before his eyes at some point, and purple electric currents surrounded him and Musashi, followed by a fierce wind pressure.

The splashing waves didn't even have time to touch the corners of his and Musashi's clothes before they were left far behind.

At this moment, Musashi was like a purple thunderbolt that pierced through the darkness and rushed straight towards the entrance of the Torii at high speed.

"Everyone please return to your respective accommodations. Amagi and the Commander will be able to attend the New Year celebration tomorrow morning."

Before passing through the entrance space of the Torii, Lin Lan heard the last words that Musashi left in the fleet channel.

As he said the last word, he, in Musashi's arms, passed through the Torii gate and arrived inside the sanctuary barrier.

The outline of a natural island that was no less large than the Xinyang artificial island appeared in front of Lin Lan, and on the coast of the island there was a dock where several mass-produced warships were moored.

However, Musashi did not slow down because of entering the holy domain barrier. Lin Lan only had time to see that there were many white lanterns in the style of the Sakura Empire hanging by the dock, as well as the fluttering flags of the Sakura Empire camp.

Before he could take a closer look, he and Musashi had already stepped onto the shore and entered the dock.

Even after landing on Snow Sakura Island, Musashi did not slow down at all, but continued to hold him and rushed into the island.

The surrounding dock huts and street scenes flashed by in an instant. Just as he and Musashi were about to leave the dock and enter the dense jungle, two shocked female voices suddenly came from behind:

"Who is coming?!"

"Tosa, don't be impulsive. That's Lord Musashi. Ah, could it be that the person she's holding in her arms is the commander..."

Before the other ship girl finished speaking, Lin Lan could no longer hear the subsequent words.

He turned his head and looked back.

Two tall Sakura Empire shipgirls were standing on the street at the dock, with their ship uniforms deployed and samurai swords in hand.

One of the ship girls had ash-gray silver hair and was wearing a black coat and a blue high-slit long skirt.

Another black-haired ship girl with a long ponytail wore a bright orange haori over her black military uniform that revealed her slender legs.

Although Lin Lan did not have time to see their faces clearly, and their figures quickly disappeared as the distance became farther and farther, Lin Lan still recognized their identities.

Kaga's sister, which was not completed for conversion into an aircraft carrier, the second Kaga-class battleship Tosa, and the light aircraft carrier Ryuho, which was converted from a submarine carrier.

Traveling at high speed along the path through the forest, Lin Lan looked up and discovered that the leaves above him and Musashi were actually pure white like white cherry blossoms under the moonlight.

He finally understood why this island was called Snow Sakura Island. It must be because of these large areas of strange white-leaf trees.

"Commander, the Imperial Sacred Tree, or the Great Imperial Sacred Tree, was once an important item used by our Sakura Empire to gather the power of souls and faith."

Just as Lin Lan's eyes were attracted by these beautiful white-leaf trees, Musashi, who was holding him and traveling at high speed through the dense forest, finally spoke again.

Even while maintaining such a speed, there was no trace of fatigue in Musashi's magnetic voice.

"Although the Sakura Empire has given up using the Great Sacred Tree to gather the power of souls and faith after joining the Minato Ward, the child has also been liberated with your help and no longer has to bear the heavy mission."

"But the effect of the sacred tree is still there, and the power of faith it once absorbed still remains. We have preserved it for emergency situations."

Although Musashi did not explicitly say the name of "that child", Lin Lan knew very well who Musashi was referring to.

It is the son of God and flagship of the Sakura Empire, one of the good friends of Xiao Jiajia and Queen Elizabeth, and the battleship in the form of a loli, Nagato.

Chapter 628: Sakura, Hai Ruo, Invisible Breath (2700 words)

The white fallen leaves are like cherry blossom petals, drifting in the night breeze on the island, just like snowflakes in Oran in winter, bringing a beautiful atmosphere.

But Lin Lan, who was in Musashi's arms, had no time to appreciate the beautiful scenery.

He was still immersed in Musashi's previous explanation, recalling the introduction of Nagato in the game.

As a powerful battleship girl, this cute fox-eared loli once had a heavy responsibility, which was to gather the souls of the dead and the power of faith in the Great Sacred Tree through the so-called ritual.

Because of this, Nagato, the son of God and the flagship of the Sakura Empire, was used by the ambitious Akagi at that time.

However, when he thought of this, he thought of the great sage of Sakura Empire, or the heavy cruiser girl Yunxian who was manifested by the Heart of the Sea.

Hai Ruo is a magical meteorite once owned by the Sakura Empire. It has magical powers like a Rubik's Cube. Nagato can create ship girls directly through rituals using the power of faith collected by the sacred tree.

It sounds wonderful, but Hai Ru is actually a double-edged sword.

Because in addition to being able to devour the power of faith to create ship girls, this creature also actually seals a strange giant beast called the invisible "Breath" inside.

As the great sage Yunxian who was the incarnation of the Heart of the Sea, the concept of the ship girl Yunxian had not yet been formed at that time.

With the help of Nagato, she has been hiding in the barrier inside the Great Sacred Tree, relying on the power of faith gathered from the Great Sacred Tree to maintain the barrier that seals the breath.

However, this seal will eventually be broken, just like the seal that the brave hero Yuki sealed the Demon King's army thousands of years ago.

After all, Xi and the mysterious enemy X are inextricably linked.

Although the game officials did not explicitly state that Xi was the mysterious enemy X, Lin Lan remembered that in the game's Sakura Empire event, the black giant boss transformed by Xi was named "X Penumbra".

In short, in order to resolve the threat posed by Xi, the great sage finally obtained the ship suit with the help of Nagato and Musashi, and officially transformed into the ship girl Unsen, and completely defeated Xi in Hai Ruonei.

From then on, Hai Ru became just an ordinary stone.

In addition, the Sakura Empire's ship girls joined his port and discovered that he, as a commander, could use the Mind Cube to directly build new ship girls, so there was no need to continue using the sacred tree to gather the power of faith to sacrifice to Hai Ruo.

As a result, Nagato was able to live the happy life she had always dreamed of, just like the normal ship girls.
