"I like you too, Kasumigaoka Utaha! You two are so beautiful, I can't bear to part with either of you. Can I have my cake and eat it too?"
Naoto Ishihara looked at the two girls with sincere eyes.
Naoto Ishihara doesn't have an older sister named Satomi Ishihara, but he has liked Yukino Yukinoshita and Utaha Kasumigaoka since he was a child!
Chapter 1362 Bonus 2
Under the watchful eyes of Xiaobai and the ship girls, the enormous black whale slowly turned its head, letting out a mournful roar as it rode the waves, carrying the red-haired girl on its back, and swam away towards the other side of the deep-sea vortex, flicking its tail.
Then it slowly disappeared from Xiaobai and the others' sight.
"..." Xiaobai and the ship girls silently stared at the gloomy horizon, remaining silent for a long while.
Xiaobai withdrew her gaze from the horizon and secretly glanced at the ship girls beside her.
In that scene that just challenged human nerves.
The ship girls around Xiaobai inexplicably refrained from firing, instead remaining silent and gazing at the distant sea with varying expressions.
Little White looked at Pompeii.
Pompeii's arms were trembling slightly, his face showing a mixture of panic and disbelief.
"Little... Little White Admiral, was that... an illusion?"
Pompeii swallowed hard, her eyes trembling as she pointed to the distant water, looking at Xiaobai with a panicked expression. "Just now, what was that thing on the whale's head up ahead...?"
Any ship girl who has interacted with the Abyssal Fleet for a period of time is basically very clear about this.
Deep-sea amphibious ships are such wondrous creatures.
Regardless of the size of the ship's equipment, the closer it is to humanoid form, the higher its level of biological evolution.
Among them, the Deep Sea Deans, who are at the top of the deep-sea food chain, are just like the ship girls. They not only possess the strongest combat power and leadership, but also the most complete human bodies. If you disregard the deep-sea ship equipment and only look at their human forms, the Deep Sea Deans could even be mistaken for a new race with generally fair skin.
In the scene just now, although the red-haired girls were all dressed in simple casual outfits and looked no different from humans at first glance, Pompeii did not see the deep-sea ship equipment behind them.
But no matter how you think about it.
No human could stand on the hull of a deep-sea amphibious vessel.
With its perfect limbs and beautiful appearance, and the ability to command a deep-sea corvette-class deep-sea amphibious vessel, the only one in the world who could be the Deep-Sea Dean is this.
Dean of the Deep Sea Institute...
They are all...Dean of the Deep Sea...
Think of this.
Pompeii was immediately overcome by a strong sense of dizziness and suffocation, and his panicked face made him unable to even hold his ship's main guns.
Riding on the back of that deep-sea frigate were dozens of deep-sea deans!
Even someone as quiet as Pompeii felt an urge to scream "Oh my god!" at that moment.
What kind of monsters are these!
A deep-sea dean possesses formidable combat power, capable of easily destroying a bustling small city.
How could so many deep-sea researchers emerge from the waters surrounding this small fishing village?
Is the Black Flame Garrison going to destroy the world?!
he!
Where did they find so many deep-sea deans?!
"Pompeii, Pompeii, calm down a bit." Seeing that Pompeii was on the verge of fainting from the scene just now, Xiaobai quickly reached out and grabbed Pompeii's wrist.
"Admiral Xiaobai, we can't beat so many Abyssal Commanders! We really can't!" Pompeii hurriedly grabbed Xiaobai's wrist, saying in a panic, "We'd better hurry back to the fishing village and evacuate the villagers as soon as possible! If we're any later... not to mention this little village, the war will probably spread all the way to Mianjiang City!"
“…Ah.” Xiaobai looked at her wrist, which was being held by Pompeii, and looked up at Pompeii’s sincere and flustered expression. She was so embarrassed that she didn’t know what to say.
From Pompeii's perspective, what just happened was indeed frightening, and her reaction is understandable.
After all, the appearance of sixty or seventy Deep Sea Deans on such a small sea surface, only half an hour away from the coast, is like discovering a nuclear bomb counting down in front of your own door while taking a morning walk. Even Xiaobai himself would be terrified if he saw it.
only.
Although Pompeii didn't recognize these sixty or seventy deep-sea deans, Little White did.
These Deep-Sea Deans are all innocent and harmless Deep-Sea Taihou. Although Xiaobai is not entirely sure why they are here, he is certain that these Deep-Sea Taihou will not harm the land like ordinary Deep-Sea Deans.
—But here's where the problem begins again.
How should Xiaobai explain this to Pompeii?
Are you suggesting I say something like, "Pompeii, don't be afraid, these sixty or seventy deep-sea deans are all from my family, they're all very well-behaved and cute..."?
Xiao Bai always felt that saying such things in this situation might scare Pompeii to death.
“Pompeii, listen to me.” After organizing her thoughts for a moment, Xiaobai spoke to Pompeii, “You’re right, it is indeed very important to evacuate the people from the village now, and we should start doing it immediately.”
"Ah, then Admiral Xiaobai, come with me quickly..."
"My ship girl and I will stay here for now. You and Zara should go back and disperse the crowd," Xiaobai said to Pompeii.
"—Huh?" Pompeii stared blankly at Little White. "Little White Admiral, are you going to stay here?"
"Um... um." Xiaobai stammered for a long time, then gave Pompeii a troubled look. "Anyway... we can't just leave them alone, can we..."
"But this is too dangerous!" Pompeii gasped. "Admiral Xiaobai, there's a limit to being a good person! Staying here is practically suicide!"
"As for us... it's alright, don't worry." Xiaobai smiled at Pompeii, then gently freed herself from Pompeii's wrist. "Right now, the fishing village is more important, right? You and Zara should go back and evacuate the crowd."
"I……"
Pompeii wanted to say something more, but he was quickly interrupted by Missouri.
“Senior Pompeii, one of us must return to the shore to report the news. This is crucial for the safety of the inhabitants on the other side,” Missouri said with a smile to Pompeii. “And it’s not just you. Observing the movements of the Deep Sea Deans here, monitoring their actions, and taking necessary action in times of crisis are also very important tasks. Now, please trust us, Senior Pompeii, and also trust yourselves.”
"..." Pompeii stared blankly at Missouri.
“Pompeii, Admiral Xiaobai and Missouri are right.” Zara gently patted Pompeii on the shoulder. “Our fighting force is only a hindrance here.”
“…I…I understand.” Pompeii bit her lip, her face instantly blurry with tears. She looked at the little white dog in Missouri’s arms. “Then, then I’ll wait for you on the beach. You must come back safely…”
"Don't worry, we'll get back safely," Xiaobai said to Pompeii.
I dare not say much more than what Xiaobai has to say.
At least safety can be absolutely guaranteed.
Upon seeing Xiaobai's gentle smile, Pompeii felt as if she were seeing a revered figure, her eyes instantly reddening. She sniffed, grabbed Zara's hand, and without saying anything more to Xiaobai, turned and ran towards the beach.
Splash splash ...
Dividing the water and moving swiftly.
Zara and Pompeii quickly disappeared from everyone's sight.
"...Phew, now it's just us left." Xiaobai looked at the calm sea and breathed a soft sigh of relief.
"Admiral, those girls on the whale..." Missouri asked, looking down at Xiaobai.
“Yes, that’s right. You’ve met them before, Missouri, right?” Xiaobai smiled at Missouri. “Those… how should I put it, they’re kind of like Yamato-neechan… Anyway, you can call them Little Red.”
"Admiral, you do know those girls."
"Hmm... I don't know why Xiao Hong and the others are here either... I remember they should have been staying in the second chapter." Xiao Bai muttered softly, "Anyway, sending Pompeii and Zara away now will make it easier for us to explore the vortex."
“I see.” Missouri smiled at Xiaobai. “Missouri thought the admiral did this to gain favor with Senior Pompeii.”
"Huh? Okay... the affection level is..."
"It makes it easier to retrieve the boat."
"Where is it? I... uh, no, I didn't!" Little White patted Missouri's chest repeatedly.
“Oh, so there wasn’t one.” Missouri smiled at Little White. “Then it seems the falling flowers are heartless, but the flowing water is willing.”
"Huh? What does that mean?"
"Yes." Missouri raised her chin, gesturing for Little White to look again in the direction where Pompeii and the others had disappeared.
Xiao Bai paused for a moment, then looked in the direction Missouri was pointing.
Pompeii and Zara, who had just disappeared, suddenly reappeared on the other side of the horizon.
Pompeii, looking sullen, was running wildly toward Little White.
"Pompeii?!" Little White exclaimed in surprise, "How could this be..."
“Yeah… how could that be?” Missouri smiled and tilted her head.
Splash splash ...
The sound of water parting rose from all sides.
Pompeii, like a speeding little motorcycle, rushed towards Little White from afar, then with a thud, it plunged into Missouri's arms and hugged Little White tightly.
"No! No, no, no, no, no!!" Pompeii hugged Xiaobai's body tightly, tears streaming down his face, and cried out, "I can't abandon Xiaobai and you, Admiral! I want to stay with you! I'll regret it if I don't! I'll regret it for the rest of my life! I won't be able to die in peace!"
"Huh?? Pompeii, but, but over on the beach..."
"How could anyone believe us?! Those are sixty or seventy Deep Sea Deans! People you've barely even seen in textbooks! How could anyone believe us? This is completely... no! That's all just an excuse!" Pompeii said, then shook his head violently, pitifully hugging Whitey's waist. "I just want to be with you, Admiral Whitey! If we're going to die, we'll die together!!"
Done.
Pompeii cried out and buried his head in Xiaobai's arms, refusing to let go no matter what.
Little White, looking up at Zara, innocently held Pompeii's head.
Zara looked at Xiaobai with an apologetic expression.
"Zara... what's going on here...?"
“I’m sorry, Admiral Shiro, Pompeii and I share the same thoughts,” Zara said in a low voice. “If something happens to you, even if we evacuate the villagers on the beach, they won’t be able to escape the attack range of so many Abyssal Deans. So please take us with you, Admiral Shiro.”
"……"noob.
Chapter 1363 is too much!!
Xiao Bai miscalculated.
Never imagined.
The two ship girls, Zara and Pompeii, have such a strong desire to travel with Shiro.
"...Missouri, was this also part of your calculations...?" Xiaobai looked up helplessly at Missouri.
“If Missouri were Pompeii, she would have made the same choice.” Missouri said to Xiaobai with a smile, “A woman on fire can be very difficult to deal with, Admiral.”
Xiao Bai looked helplessly at Pompeii in her arms.
It seems.
These two ship girls are determined to follow me no matter what.
"So you've passed the test, Admiral?" Missouri whispered in Xiaobai's ear.
"Huh? What test?" Xiaobai was taken aback.
"A test to get on the pirate ship?" Missouri laughed.
"……"noob.
Getting on a pirate ship is alright.
You know what, it's actually quite a vivid description.
"Phew... alright." Little White gently patted Pompeii's shoulder. "Pompeii, Zara, if you'd like to come with us, that's fine too."
“Okay!” Pompeii raised his head abruptly.
Xiao Bai looked at Pompeii's face and gently stroked Pompeii's reddened eyes with her fingers.
Compared to Xiaobai, who has always been quite calm.
Pompeii, a ship girl who knows nothing about the Deep Sea Taihou, must have been under a lot of pressure during the decision-making process just now...
He might have even made her worry about him.
—I'm so sorry.
Xiaobai felt quite guilty about this.
“Pompeii, I might not be the kind of righteous person you imagine,” Xiaobai said to Pompeii. “Perhaps you’ve over-glorified me.”
