Azur Lane: The Azure Life of the Tragic Admiral

"Really, that's really a pity."

"For defense purposes, it's not a pity, right? Wouldn't the Royal Family do the same?"

"But there are always some islands that have not been deeply developed, and the nobles always like some unique entertainment projects."

"Prince of Wales is the title of the Crown Prince."

"Oh, it's just a title."

The Prince of Wales shook his head, and then said:

"I have been thinking about a question before, who is the extremely powerful ship girl who appeared in front of me. But now, I think I probably have the answer."

Yang Sikang did not respond, but his restless fingers proved that his mentality at the moment was not so easy-going.

The Prince of Wales continued:

"Using the ship's equipment as a disposable weapon, and the powerful main gun that is obviously beyond the current technological level. If a port district is led by a commander with such technology, it may not be surprising that it has such an exaggerated combat power."

"But what I don't understand is, if you have such great power, why do you still want to stay here and fight with those politicians?"

Chapter 167 Conversation on the Coast (2)

"A tremendous strength?"

Yang Sikang shook his head:

"I am just a commander who is a bit unusual in construction. Those so-called powerful forces are just evil ways after all. Using ship equipment as a disposable weapon is only allowed when it is used to recycle waste."

Sighing helplessly, Yang Sikang asked back:

"Even if I give that method to the Royal Family, would you dare to use it?"

The Prince of Wales was silent for a moment and shook his head.

Does the Royal Family have enough ship equipment?

Have.

But the Royal Family would never use the method of using ship equipment as disposable weapons.

On the one hand, this is a huge waste of resources, and on the other hand, the Royal's industrial level is still inferior to that of the White Eagle.

Even if each piece of ship equipment is useless, it can be used for research and experiments, to analyze the principles of the ship equipment and the secrets contained therein. How could it be made into a bomb like Yang Sikang did?

"This method cannot be applied on a large scale, but...what about the others?"

“Sometimes having technology beyond your imagination isn’t a good thing.”

Yang Sikang sighed helplessly. Although he knew that the Prince of Wales must have some ideas about that technology, since the Prince of Wales mentioned it directly, he decided to respond:

"If my guess is correct, the reason why the Purifiers wanted to kill me is probably because I used technology that does not belong to this world. If I share that technology with you, hehe."

The Prince of Wales frowned and asked unwillingly:

"Then do you intend to keep those things in your hands forever? Not many people are interested in the things you have now because the value of those things has not yet been fully demonstrated, but in the future..."

"after?"

Yang Sikang looked at the Prince of Wales and smiled slightly:

"But I don't need to think about the future."

The Prince of Wales was stunned at first, then he understood and nodded helplessly:

"Indeed, you are different from other commanders in this regard. Haha."

Yang Sikang sighed silently, and then said:

"Technology is something that cannot be kept secret forever. But before confirming its safety, at least the scope of impact should be controlled."

"I see. Let's change the subject. After all, we are here to have fun today."

The two left the embankment and came to the outside of the port area.

Belfast had booked a restaurant for him in the morning, so it would be a good idea for him to walk over now.

On the way, the topic of their conversation gradually became relaxed, and the Prince of Wales seemed to be very interested in Yang Sikang's past.

But they mostly talked about things in life, so there was nothing serious.

The two of them attracted a lot of attention when they walked on the street. On the one hand, Yang Sikang himself was a well-known person, but what was even more eye-catching was probably the temperament of the Prince of Wales.

She usually looks very serious, giving people the feeling that she is not approachable.

But once you get in touch with her, like when we're chatting now, that serious exterior disappears and what's left is this attractive, rich fragrance.

The restaurant they booked was a Vichy restaurant. When he entered, the Prince of Wales looked a little surprised.

"I thought you would find a Donghuang restaurant, or make some other arrangements."

"But this is in White Eagle after all. Even if Donghuang cuisine is brought here, the taste will be different from the original Donghuang cuisine. Every place has different tastes. Besides, I have cooked Donghuang cuisine before, right?"

"That's true. Every place has different tastes... huh? But come to think of it, our royal family is notorious when it comes to cuisine."

"It's just the circumstances."

Yang Sikang said casually:

"For a country that relies on colonies, it is normal for dishes to be lost in the scarcity of supplies during the world war. The subsequent changes in social forms and trends only contributed slightly to the decline of traditional British cuisine."

“It’s rare to hear such words.”

“People are always going to prefer something that’s gimmicky, and that’s a given.”

Shrugging his shoulders, Yang Sikang said indifferently:

"But aren't there also people among the ship girls who are good at cooking? So this kind of thing is not a big problem."

"But the Ship Girls don't have time to cook everywhere."

"As long as the recipe can be passed on, the rest will be left to time. What matters is whether you can do it and whether you are willing to do it."

The Prince of Wales looked at Yang Sikang and smiled:

"Leave it to time, but there are always problems that time cannot solve. So what should we do?"

“There will always be another way to solve it.”

"is it?"

The dishes were served at this time, and the topic of conversation turned to the dishes.

Yang Sikang had some understanding of almost all of these things, but it was not to be said that he was very profound.

The Prince of Wales seemed to particularly enjoy the process of talking to him about these things rather than the results.

In other words, she was very interested in some of the unusual views that Yang Sikang expressed on things.

After lunch, the Prince of Wales said that his afternoon schedule had been arranged.

However, what surprised Yang Sikang was that the Prince of Wales actually brought him to the royal ship.

"You destroyed the main gun of your command ship. What are you going to do next?"

"Replace it with a normal main gun, and then see if we can find something else to replace it. That's all we can do, right?"

Yang Sikang answered while looking around.

The Prince of Wales did not interfere with his actions at all, and even took the initiative to take him into the cabin, as if he wanted to show him the ship.

"The internal structure of this ship is probably nothing new to you, so I have nothing to hide from you. The reason I brought you here is, firstly, to ask if you have any opinions, and secondly... some things are not convenient for outsiders to hear."

"I can't really say I have an opinion. I don't have a very deep understanding of ships."

"Then just take a look. People outside the royal ship don't have many opportunities to go inside and take a look."

"Yes, and it is an honor for me to be led by His Royal Highness the Prince of Wales."

The Prince of Wales ignored his teasing and asked:

"My question is actually very simple, you should have thought of it."

The Prince of Wales stopped and looked over, then hesitated and asked:

"The ship girl I met who gave me the item was the ship girl from your previous world, right? Who is she?"

Chapter 168 Past events

"……I have no idea."

Yang Sikang sighed helplessly:

"I'm roughly sure that the one you met is the ship girl from my previous world, but I don't know who she is. Just like the one in Donghuang, you should know it anyway, right?"

"One letter can solve Donghuang's troubles. No one will believe you even if you deny it."

"Yes, but for me, I really don't know who they are."

Shaking his head, Yang Sikang continued:

"When I woke up, I had been taken back to my home port by Cleveland. The first thing I saw when I opened my eyes was the ceiling of the hospital. I had no idea what happened before that and how I came to this world."

"To be honest, until this incident, I never thought that the ship girl from my previous world would come to this world."

The Prince of Wales frowned slightly, seeming a little puzzled. Yang Sikang smiled and explained:

"The ship girls in my previous world are different from you in this world. In a way, they are more like... elves rather than humans. They have all the good qualities that humans can have, but they only have those good qualities."

Even though he had thought of something, the Prince of Wales still asked:

"What do you mean?"

"A coin has two sides, and there will always be a shadow behind an object under the light. But they are different. They only have good qualities and no negative things at all. It's like a coin with only one side."

The Prince of Wales frowned, and Yang Sikang told the other ship girls for the first time what he had told Belfast and the others:

"In that world, there are not so many commanders. There is only one commander in the whole world. The next commander will be chosen only after the previous one dies. And I am not the first one to be chosen, and my mission is not to fight, but to protect those who are responsible for fighting."

"The Ship Girls deal with their enemies, and I deal with the Ship Girls' enemies. So most of the time my opponents are ordinary people, all kinds of ordinary people."

"They are too kind, so some people want to gain something from their kindness. Selfishness is everyone's nature, and people who are too kind cannot protect themselves from the selfishness of others."

The Prince of Wales frowned, and interrupted Yang Sikang:

"But this doesn't make sense. There can't be something in the world that has only positives and no negatives."

"Yes."

Yang Sikang smiled:

"So, Your Highness, where do you think all those negative things went?"

The Prince of Wales was stunned for a moment, then his eyes widened.

"Your enemies..."

"exactly."

The Prince of Wales was speechless, and Yang Sikang said:

"And from what I heard from you, there was no detailed description of their appearance, but on the other hand, it was hard for me to believe that they would do those things.

So if you ask me if they are the ship girls from my previous world, my answer is very likely. But it is impossible to confirm who they are based on this little information. "

“Good things are always roughly alike.”

"Yes."

The Prince of Wales took a deep breath, his eyes changing constantly as if he was thinking about something.

Yang Sikang stood nearby, leaning forward against the side of the boat, looking ahead.

This was the first time he told these things to the ship girls other than his own. Although he skipped over the more important content, this kind of information would definitely have an impact once it spread.

But the Prince of Wales had already come into contact with a ship girl, and he was not sure whether the Prince of Wales would pass on what he said today to some dangerous people, but he was willing to trust the judgment of his ship girl.

Even though he didn't know who had approached the Prince of Wales, what did it matter?

She was willing to trust the Prince of Wales, and he completed her task as agreed.

That was enough, then, and it was the main reason why he was willing to say those things to the Prince of Wales.

Of course, there is also the factor of hoping that the Prince of Wales can provide some help in this regard. After all, it is almost impossible for him to find a ship girl whose whereabouts is unknown. But if the Prince of Wales can help, the ship girl who found her may appear again.
