Ding!
With a crisp sound, the baseball flew towards the dormitory building, leaving a long trail of flame.
All the dispersal efforts were underway, watching the baseball fly further and further away.
"Oh—" They couldn't help but reach out and clap their hands.
That was a truly powerful strike.
Fubuki put down the stick in her hand and said to Shirayuki behind her, "Changchun! Did you go out with the Admiral?"
Bai Xue looked at Fubuki with a wry smile.
“Hmm…” Bai Xue nodded.
"Traitor! Aaaaaaah!" Fubuki cried out, her hands flailing in the air, "Oppai monster! Aaaaaah!"
"Hahaha..." Bai Xue could only manage a dry laugh.
Anyway... it's so great that my sister is back to normal.
Bai Xue thought to herself.
However, things always take a dramatic turn.
While the destroyers were playing around, Bismarck, exuding a murderous aura and glaring with blood-red eyes, walked towards them.
How should we describe Bismarck's position in the naval base?
Yes. Beautiful, capable, and impressive.
She is the admiral's wedding ship, and also one of the most remarkable ship girls.
At the same time, because of her always serious demeanor, she is also like a fierce older sister to the destroyer.
This powerful figure walked towards the destroyers with an icy expression, which terrified them.
Bismarck looked up and saw Fubuki and the baseball bat at her feet.
She walked up to Fubuki.
Fubuki had just recovered from her dazed state when she suddenly saw Bismarck staring coldly at her, almost scaring the soul she was biting off her lips back into flight.
"Eek!" Bismarck was truly terrifying for a destroyer, and Fubuki quickly took a few steps back.
"Did you hit the ball?" Bismarck asked.
"Huh? Huh?" Fubuki looked at the baseball bat at her feet, then at her destroyer comrades around her.
Even when Bismarck wasn't angry, her beautiful face still looked incredibly fierce.
Now that she's standing here, who among the destroyers would dare to say a word?
"I'm so sorry, so sorry, so sorry!" At this moment, Shirayuki, quick-witted as ever, understood the situation immediately. She quickly stood in front of Fubuki and bowed deeply to Bismarck, apologizing, "I'm so sorry for causing Bismarck-neechan so much trouble! Please don't be angry! I'm really sorry!"
When playing baseball, no one uses their ship rigging. My sister just used the power of her ship rigging in her anger, and I'm afraid it hit Bismarck's house.
Good heavens! What a coincidence!
Bismarck looked at Shirayuki, who was apologizing to him, and waved his hand: "I'm not angry. It's just that your baseball hit Taihou in the face. I just happened to be passing by and reminded you that you should apologize or something."
Bismarck wasn't actually angry; it was just that her usual cold demeanor frightened the destroyer.
"We're going right now!" The destroyer was terrified by Bismarck. Fubuki knew she had caused trouble, so she quickly apologized to Bismarck and ran towards the dormitory building.
Several destroyers who felt equally guilty were also frightened by Bismarck and followed Fubuki's lead.
Bismarck looked around.
The destroyers within sight all took a few steps back, then dispersed and disappeared.
—Am I that scary?
Bismarck frowned.
She also fell into deep thought.
Am I very fierce?

Returning to the normal timeline.
Inside the ship girl bathhouse.
As Taihou soaked in the repair pool, she looked at the destroyers bathing alongside her and finished telling them the story, and couldn't help but laugh.
"Bismarck is a very considerate person," Taihou said to the still shaken destroyers in front of her.
"But it's really scary..." Fubuki faced Bismarck directly, and this time she was also terrified, hiding in Taihou's arms. "Taihou-neechan, I'm sorry, I didn't control my emotions when I was playing baseball..."
"Hahaha." Taihou laughed and shook her head. "Hmm? That was a great home run, Fubuki."
“Emmm…”
Fubuki looked at Taihou's delicate face and felt guilty about the still slightly swollen nose.
“It’s all Changchun’s fault,” Fubuki said, pouting.
"Hahaha." Taihou knew that Fubuki's words weren't sincere; she was just putting on airs, so he remained silent.
Well, although we collided with a group of destroyers, causing a large number of people to end up in the repair pool.
But isn't it nice to be able to chat with destroyers that you don't usually see?
Yes, today was another pleasant, peaceful, happy, and lucky day.
Taihou looked at the destroyers in front of her and thought to herself.
Chapter 172
Xiao Bai stretched out her hand and quietly looked at her cuff.
The cuffs were washed clean and neat; Hu De's ironing skills were superb. Every time Xiao Bai wore this outfit, she could feel the same sensation as when she first put on new clothes.
"Is there something dirty on your clothes?" Hud asked from beside me.
Xiao Bai raised her eyes and looked to her side.
Hu De sat beside Xiao Bai, his bright blue eyes filled with concern.
"Hmm? No, it's very clean." Xiaobai smiled at Hude.
"That's good." Hu De smiled gently, turning his head to look out the window.
Outside the car window, trees and the white road flashed by as one.
Xiao Bai lowered her hand.
There was nothing special about why she was staring at her sleeve; she was simply looking at the skin on her wrist.
—My skin seems to be a little fairer than before.
After using the Admiral Network to strip Bai Yinwu of her Abyssal Ship Equipment, Xiaobai's appearance underwent many changes.
The changes in eye and hair color were one thing, but Xiaobai also noticed that her skin seemed to have become a little fairer.
Did you know that deep-sea ship equipment also has this kind of cosmetic effect?
As a girl, Xiaobai wasn't really against this change.
After all, no one would refuse to become beautiful.
—But even so, this kind of change really makes people feel uneasy.
Xiao Bai looked down at his fingertips.
The pink nails looked as if they were coated with colorless nail polish, with a glossy sheen.
The slightly dim interior of the car was like ten sparkling pink gems.
These small changes in a place make one unsure whether to be happy or worried.
Even if Xiaobai tries to avoid it, she can't ignore these changes in herself.
That means Xiaobai seems to be getting closer and closer to the realm of "ship girl".
Although my hair has turned snow-white and grown quite a bit, it doesn't need any care at all.
My hair is always so soft and supple, it feels like you could squeeze water out of it if you pinched it, and there's absolutely no sign of split ends or dryness at the ends.
She also has plenty of energy. Even if Xiaobai stays up all night, as long as she gets a short nap, she will be full of energy the next day and will not look tired at all.
Oh well, things will work themselves out.
Xiaobai gave up thinking.
Anyway, all the changes so far have been for the better.
"How much longer until we reach the naval base?" Xiaobai asked the driver sitting in the front of the car.
"It'll be quick, just a matter of ten minutes," the driver replied upon hearing Xiaobai's voice.
The driver also saw Xiaobai's appearance in the rearview mirror and couldn't help but marvel at it.
He can be said to have witnessed Xiaobai transform from a lonely young girl into a super admiral surrounded by women.
—This girl is quite something.
The old man didn't know how he felt.
The little girl with black hair and black eyes went out for a while and came back as a beautiful girl with white hair and golden eyes.
But if you look closely, his appearance hasn't actually changed; he just looks much better.
—Dyeing your hair is really something.
But why do I always feel a sense of emptiness, watching a simple, innocent girl unknowingly transform into a big star?
Despite his thoughts, the old man didn't say a word.
During this period, I have been coming to this naval base more and more often. At first, I was excited and wanted to chat with the ship girls I hitched a ride with, but as the number of times I visited increased, that novelty wore off.
He's in his sixties or seventies, not the kind of person who'd be unable to move when he sees a beautiful woman.
It was as steady as a rock all the way.
A dozen minutes passed in the blink of an eye, and with a whoosh, the taxi smoothly came to a stop in front of the naval base.
Xiaobai and the two ship girls got out of the car and looked back.
The ship girls who are with Shiro are Hood and Saratoga.
Saratoga got out of the car and stretched lazily towards the sky.
A gentle sea breeze blew, causing her hair to flutter in the wind.
There was a taxi behind the car, and the remaining four ship girls also got out of the car.
Tirpitz seemed to dislike the crowded environment and the inability to use the computer, displaying a desperate expression of lack of motivation.
Changchun was pushing Tirpitz from behind, leading her toward the gate of the naval base.
"I kind of regret coming out." Tirpitz was pushed next to Xiaobai by Changchun, and only then did he take the initiative to say a word to Xiaobai.
For a seasoned homebody, the most painful things in the world are leaving home and returning home.
Having finally gotten used to Yuxiu's lifestyle, Tirpitz then had to travel for several days straight. Coupled with the pain of not having Wi-Fi and the monotonous, bumpy journey, Tirpitz's mental state began to plummet.
"We'll be home soon!" Xiaobai thought, finding it quite amusing to see Tirpitz looking like he'd lost something important.
Tirpitz usually either has an indifferent expression or a poker face like a queen, so seeing Tirpitz's new expression really makes Xiaobai happy.
"Phew." Tirpitz let out a sigh of relief, which could be considered as tacitly agreeing with Xiaobai's words.
In contrast to Tirpitz, who looked empty, listless, and listless, the company was now full of vitality.
"I'm home! Ah!" Enterprise shouted, opening his arms wide towards the gates of the naval base.
When it comes to vitality, even the notorious Saratoga pales in comparison to a corporation.
Having energetic ship girls around is always a good thing.
Although Changchun is also a destroyer, she is too virtuous when she is with Xiaobai. She is like a newlywed wife. Whatever Xiaobai says is good. Admiral, no problem.
While living in Yuxiu, it was actually the company's golden retriever that kept the atmosphere lively.
The group entered the garrison headquarters.
