Azur Lane: The Azure Life of the Tragic Admiral

Yang Sikang shook his head, and Jiang Feng immediately frowned. But then Yang Sikang said:

"But I know what I have done, and I also know the significance of your presence here. Therefore, I don't need to know much about you. I only need to know my own value, and that's enough."

Jiang Feng was silent for a moment and let out a breath silently.

"I think I understand why the two members of the First Air Force are so hostile to you."

"That's normal. After all, I never intended to get along with him in a friendly way from the beginning."

"Then the second question is... what exactly do you want to do in our Sakura Empire?"

Yang Sikang looked at Jiang Feng and asked doubtfully:

"You're still asking this now?"

"This is my personal opinion. I think you must have some other purpose for coming to Sakura Empire, right?"

Yang Sikang looked at Jiang Feng in surprise, and after a long moment he smiled slightly:

"Have."

Chapter 258 A Transaction That Akagi Didn't Know

Jiang Feng immediately tensed up, waiting for Yang Sikang's follow-up answer.

However, Yang Sikang shook his head:

"But some things are meaningless to say. Anyway, you will see it soon."

Although he was not satisfied with the answer, Jiang Feng did not continue to ask.

It was already very unruly for her to ask Yang Sikang questions before carrying out the task, and it was even more inappropriate for her to continue wasting time on her own personal affairs.

Jiang Feng restrained his expression, looked into Yang Sikang's eyes and said:

"Then, Mr. Yang Sikang."

When the words came to her lips, Jiang Feng suddenly hesitated. But after hesitating for a moment, she still asked according to the Son of God's request:

"Are you sure...you want to see that information?"

"Of course, that's why I'm here today."

Jiang Feng no longer hesitated, took out the file bag he had prepared long ago, and placed it in front of Yang Sikang.

“This is what you want, about… the construction plan of the Heavenly City and detailed related records.

But before you look at this information, I must remind you that Sakura Empire has tried all methods and failed under the premise of fully following the plan and original arrangements.

That is, the information may not be as valuable as you hoped.”

"Whether they have sufficient value is determined by me. Once the exchange is completed, you don't need to worry about their value."

"So, what's your reward?"

Yang Sikang picked up the file bag and smiled slightly:

"I have already taken the 40 kilograms of explosives away with me. They are not cheap products that can be made easily. Besides, I don't want to cause any unpleasantness with the Great Sage."

Yang Sikang raised his head and looked into Jiang Feng's eyes, raising his eyebrows:

"I am looking forward to meeting the beautiful great sage someday."

Jiang Feng seemed indifferent to his rude words.

Through the brief exchange before, Jiang Feng had fully understood the sharp words of this man, but his behavior was not as rude as his words, so Jiang Feng didn't bother to care about his momentary verbal pleasure.

"But this is not enough, Lord Yang Sikang."

"Don't worry about the ship equipment. As long as you send the equipment over, I can debug it."

"You know I'm not talking about modifying the ship's equipment."

Yang Sikang paused and looked at Jiang Feng again.

"Then there's even less of a rush."

He grinned and said calmly under Jiang Feng's sharp gaze:

"I know what they want, so... this matter has already been arranged."

Jiang Feng frowned at first, then his eyes suddenly widened and his pupils shrank.

Almost subconsciously, she grasped the knife across her knees, but Yang Sikang's smile forced her to calm down.

"Mr. Yang Sikang, you..."

"The First Air Force is setting a trap for me, so there's no reason for me not to fight back. We agreed at the time that no matter what the outcome of the game between me and the First Air Force is, you guys can't interfere."

"So that request was waiting here?"

Jiang Feng gritted his teeth and asked:

"So you had anticipated this situation when you sent the independent team to contact us?"

"I can't say I expected it, it's just a reasonable guess based on the intelligence. It's better to be safe than sorry."

The timeline goes back to before Yang Sikang came to Sakura Empire. On the day when Duli found Yang Sikang, he gave Duli a special task:

"I have prepared several dozen kilograms of special explosives. These are made from fragments of Siren's ship equipment and the Mind Cube. Once the container is damaged, a very powerful explosion will occur. Even without charging, 1 gram is still equivalent to 1 kilogram of TNT explosion."

"Independence, I will try to put these explosives into the bombs of the carrier-mounted bombers. In the case of dive bombing by carrier-mounted bombers, these things can explode with ten times the explosive power.

And I need you to take these bombers and detach from the troops to this place after we enter the territorial waters of the Sakura Empire."

He pointed out the target point on the map, and Independence asked with some confusion:

"Commander, is there any target here that needs to be bombed?"

"There are no targets to bomb, but I will go to see Akagi with several more explosives divided into one-gram portions.

Until I meet her, you must hide and not let anyone know you are hiding around there until I notify you."

"I understand, Commander."

Duli accepted the task without hesitation, but Yang Sikang shook his head:

"No, the danger doesn't end there, Independence."

He sighed and tapped the location on the map.

"If I'm not mistaken, this should be the location of another faction of the Sakura Empire.

The explosives will be reported to the higher-ups through Akagi, and after I inform you, you will have to find a ship girl there."

"Who?"

"Jiang Feng, here are some simple information about her."

"What about after we find her?"

"Show her the 'gift' you brought, then give this thing to her and have her give it to Nagato."

"Nagato is..."

"The Son of God of the Sakura Empire is also the Big Seven of the Sakura Empire, so this matter is very dangerous.

If things don’t go as I expected, you may not be able to get out of this unscathed.”

"Please leave it to me, Commander."

A confident smile spread across his independent face, and he spoke in a firm tone:

"I will complete the task well."

Yang Sikang sighed lightly and nodded.

What happened next was just like before, although there were some twists and turns, the result was good.

Things were developing as he expected. He met Akagi and let Akagi know the power of the explosive.

After the message was delivered to the upper level, Independence easily used carrier-based aircraft to attract the attention of the ship girl over there.

As expected, Jiang Feng, the bodyguard, was the first to arrive at the scene and meet Duli.

The destructive power caused by the independent bomber once again refreshed the opponent's cognition, and then Independent followed Yang Sikang's advice and successfully calmed Jiang Feng down.

Afterwards, the things were delivered to Nagato through Jiang Feng's hands.

And that 'thing' is actually a set of specially encrypted terminals.

Yang Sikang talked to Nagato through the terminal, and finally the two sides reached a deal:

1. Nagato will try to obtain the original construction plan of Tiancheng and all records of events related to it, and provide them to Yang Sikang.

2. Yang Sikang adjusted the ship outfits of three ship girls for the Sakura Empire, but the specific candidates were designated by the Sakura Empire and he could not refuse.

3. Yang Sikang needs to solve the problems caused by the unknown ship girl to the Sakura Empire and take away the explosives.

4. Any results obtained based on the information provided by Nagato must be shared with the Sakura Empire.

Time goes back to the present.

This was a rather delicate deal, but it was a very good result for Yang Sikang.

Although the fourth point is a little too subtle, but... that is exactly what he wants to see.

These four short transaction items were actually the result of repeated discussions.

During this period, Nagato's attitude changed several times, and Yang Sikang suspected that Musashi was involved.

But it didn't matter to him, his goal had been achieved.

This is what surprised Jiang Feng. These discussions were completed a long time ago, but looking back now... the discussions at that time were probably also part of his plan!

Chapter 259: The Provocation of the Sakura People and Musashi's Decision

"So, everything that has happened so far is actually in your plan, right?"

Jiang Feng asked again with a little anger.

She was surprised at Yang Sikang's vision and understanding of them, but also angry that this man dared to act like this.

To Jiang Feng, Yang Sikang's behavior was tantamount to playing with the entire Sakura Empire like a toy.

However, facing Jiang Feng's anger, Yang Sikang still looked indifferent.

"I couldn't have anticipated everything, for example...Musashi would intervene at this time."

Jiang Feng's momentum stagnated and his eyebrows twitched slightly.

Although she tried to control her reaction, the subtle movement did not escape the gaze of Yang Sikang who was watching her.

Having confirmed his guess, Yang Sikang's smile became even brighter.

"As expected, it wasn't just Nagato who negotiated with me at the time."

“You just asked to hand the things over to the Son of God, but you didn’t say to only communicate with the Son of God.”

Jiang Feng argued, but Yang Sikang shook his head:

"I don't care who I negotiate with, as long as the final result is good for me. Rather, being able to communicate with Musashi during this trip is a gain far beyond my expectations. In fact, I should thank you."

Jiang Feng frowned slightly, but Yang Sikang suddenly changed the subject and said in a deep voice:

"But I can't just ignore what some people in Sakura Empire are doing, so before we complete our deal, I think we should discuss other things."

Jiang Feng was a little bit troubled by Yang Sikang's sudden change of attitude, but she still asked cautiously:

"What do you mean?"

The smile on Yang Sikang's face disappeared in an instant, and his gentle eyes turned cold at the same time.

The whole person lost all temperature at this moment, and the sudden change made Jiang Feng subconsciously tense his body.

"Where is Hai Ruo now?"

Jiang Feng came back to his senses. Although he was already feeling uneasy, he still answered calmly:

"I don't know where you got this name from, but this is an internal matter of our Sakura Empire..."

"I don't care about your internal affairs, and I have no intention of exploring them, but why did someone move Hai Ruo to that notorious shrine in the past few days?"

"what?!"
