Comprehensive Comics KanColle: Building a Dimensional Empire from Scratch

"The Mind Cube is considered an energy supply device. It is normal for your strength to increase after you absorb it."

Befa answered.

"You mean I swallowed a reactor?"

"You can understand it this way, but the Mind Cube will also enhance the structural strength of the receptor. Theoretically, you should have the same ability to withstand blows as us..."

The head maid's expression became increasingly strange.

"?"

Lu Chen was stunned for a moment.

The same physical strength as the Azure Ship Girl?

Take the torpedo with your face and resist the naval guns with your body?

……

A few hours later.

The port coast.

Lu Chen stood in the experimental field, with the flagships of the major fleets, Akashi, and many ship girls watching the fun standing nearby.

"Hit me."

Lu Chen said as he looked at the little ship girl opposite him who was wearing a sailor uniform, with silver hair and animal ears.

Under normal circumstances, he would never dare to say this.

Don’t be fooled by the fact that destroyers are all little girls. Their bodies are warships weighing thousands of tons. Even without using naval guns, a full-strength punch can send whales and elephants flying into the sky.

"You will regret challenging Lord Xuefeng now, hohoho~~"

The beast-eared little ship girl pouted, made a sprinting gesture, and rushed straight towards Lu Chen.

boom--

Lu Chen took Xuefeng's punch steadily.

He felt that the force coming from his hands was close to hundreds of tons.

"Oh!"

The battleships and aircraft carriers watching could not help but widen their eyes.

It's incredible that humans can withstand the impact of a destroyer.

"I'm going to be serious!"

Seeing that direct attack didn't work, the little ship girl jumped back two steps and manifested her own ship suit.

Three 127mm main guns and two anti-aircraft machine guns fired at the same time, and the shells hit Lu Chen like raindrops.

At the same time, after the launch pads on both sides were opened, two torpedoes roared through the air.

When they were first launched, they were only the size of pocket toys, but in mid-air they suddenly turned into torpedoes more than 9 meters long, with power enough to penetrate the side armor of a battleship.

Boom——

After the smoke and dust cleared, Lu Chen stood there, brushing off the dust on his clothes, and was unharmed.

"Wow--"

The ship girls were instantly excited.

"Really G! He absorbed the Mind Cube!"

"You can't even fire a 127mm gun?! I wonder if the 380mm naval gun can do it? G? Too big? What about the 203mm one?"

"Can it stop the Enterprise's bombers?"

"Musashi, what are you trying to do? Put away your naval guns, they can kill people!!!"

Everyone hurriedly held down the two Sakura Empire ship girls who had pulled out illegal weapons due to emotional excitement.

...

(Pictured is Befa).

Chapter 10 My gender identity is Gundam

An hour later.

The smoke and dust from the experimental field gradually dissipated, and the barbarians and Bree took tools and began to repair the battered field.

Even if they cannot exert their full strength in land combat, the destructive power of the ship girls is exaggerated, producing an effect similar to that of rockets washing the ground.

"Well, according to our test results and evaluation, your physical strength is between a destroyer and a cruiser."

Enterprise said as he looked at the experimental data in his hand.

"You have stronger resistance to attacks, similar to heavy cruisers. Unless you are attacked by a large number of torpedoes, the firepower of ordinary destroyers should not be able to hurt you."

"Only at the level of a destroyer? A little weaker than I thought."

Lu Chen stretched his body.

He could probably sense it during the test.

She was able to handle the attacks from destroyers with ease, but when battleships and aircraft carriers came into play, she could only be crushed.

Similarly, small-caliber main guns cannot hurt itself, but it is still a bit difficult to take on heavy cruiser-class naval guns.

"It may be because you and the Rubik's Cube are not 100% synchronized. If you use it more, you should be able to exert greater power."

The company thought about it.

"Oh, that's fine."

Even the power of a destroyer is enough to dominate the surface.

Lu Chen felt that in the future he would have to reach the Yamato or Iowa level.

"But I don't seem to have the ability to summon a ship suit? And I can't float on the sea?"

He suddenly remembered that although they both used the power of the Mind Cube, he was missing something compared to the KanColle.

Only physical strength, no armed system.

"Because your main body is not a warship, Commander."

Akashi's eyes were still full of resentment.

"The function of the Mind Cube is to materialize the set of human cognition about a certain object."

"To put it another way, if the user believes that the warship is a ship girl, it can give the warship intelligence and turn the warship into a human."

"But your self-perception is that of a human, so naturally you don't have a ship suit."

"..."

Lu Chen was silent for a while.

"Because I think warships are people, the Rubik's Cube can turn warships into ship girls? What kind of idealism is this, the power of my thoughts that distorts reality!?"

"Is it because I consider myself a human that I can't become a Kanpai?!"

"Is such that."

Akashi nodded.

"But if you, Commander, think you are something else, the cube might be able to turn you into that."

Lu Chen gained a new understanding of the black technology of the blue world.

"That is to say, if I truly believe that I am also a warship, I can project a ship suit. If I believe that I am a Gundam, I can drive Unit-01, Strelitzia, Strike Freedom, or Barbatos?!"

"uh-huh."

Akashi agreed.

"I don't know what a Gundam is, but in theory it is like this, meow."

……

Lu Chen had no way to distort his self-perception in a short period of time.

He has been a real human being for more than 20 years, and it is useless even if he frantically tells himself "I am a Star Destroyer, I am a Star Destroyer" or "I am Gundam, I am Gundam..."

This thing is not as simple as gender recognition, you can just fill it in with an armed helicopter or something.

The subconscious mind disagrees, and the body disagrees too.

I can only think of a solution later.

However, being able to obtain physical fitness similar to that of the ship girl means that the trip was not in vain.

It also made him curious about what capabilities would be compatible in the future.

The only small problem is that Akashi often follows him around to collect debts.

Condemning myself for getting a mind cube for free.

Lu Chen had no choice but to promise that he would help her sell the paint box to the multiverse in the future and work together to cheat the aliens from other worlds.

After a quick calculation, Akashi immediately smiled happily. He stayed in the store every day painting white boxes with gold paint, preparing to shock the other world with some unscrupulous merchants.

Five days later.

The main building in the port area, inside the top floor conference room.

After a period of discussion and dealing with the incident of Lu Chen eating the only Mind Cube in the port area.

The two sides reached a consensus on cooperation between the two worlds.

Although they had not spent much time together, perhaps because of his affinity for the power of the Mind Cube, the other ship girls became much friendlier towards Lu Chen.

Some enthusiastic ones have begun to call him "Commander".

"Well, then, on behalf of all the ship girls of Azur Lane, I agree to enter into a comprehensive cooperative relationship with your world."

Enterprise, wearing a white military uniform, handed a document to Lu Chen.

This was the result of many negotiations and discussions between the two parties, as well as countless meetings within the KanColle organization.

Lu Chen opened the document, which came in duplicate. The cover page had the Azur Lane camp's logo printed on it, making it look very formal.

It was very similar to the diplomatic conference between the major countries on Blue Star back then.

"On behalf of the Minato District, I sign a trade agreement, an immigration agreement, a scientific research agreement, a non-aggression pact, and a military alliance agreement with you."

"May you bring prosperity and development to both worlds."

Chapter 11 Trade Agreement, Nonaggression, Military Alliance

The agreement document is dozens of pages long, and the wording and sentence structure are quite similar to those of a diplomatic announcement.

It can be seen how much importance and seriousness the port ship girls attach to this.

Lu Chen read it carefully and found that the core content was relatively simple.

Trade agreement, a vanguard fleet will be sent by the Blue World to help rebuild civilization on Earth, develop the resources there, and regularly transport a portion of them back to the port as a reward.

The immigration agreement allows the ship girls to travel freely between the two worlds and choose where to live, whether they want to live in the Grand Port District or on Earth. Lu Chen needs to guarantee their citizenship rights.

Military alliance, when any party is attacked, the allies will join the war to protect the other party, the vanguard fleet will follow Lu Chen to fight in other worlds, and Lu Chen is also obligated to help the port area solve the threat of Sirens in the future.

Rights and obligations are equal, and every detail is clearly stipulated.

The content of the agreement has been made as fair and just as possible and there is nothing wrong with it in any aspect.

"I agree."

Lu Chen signed his name on the document.

“It’s been a pleasure working with you.”

The company representative, Minato, also signed his name.

The ship girls in the audience burst into cheers.

"Great!!"
