Deep Sea Taihou tried to dodge, but this time, no matter how she dodged, the cannonball seemed to be attached to her by something. As long as Deep Sea Taihou moved slightly, the cannonball would adjust its direction and rush towards Deep Sea Taihou with even greater speed.
This was no ordinary shelling; it was the power of a miracle.
This green-clad dean, who is chasing after the Deep Sea Taihou, is a Deep Sea Abyssal Ship with an absolute accuracy miracle.
The deep-sea phoenix leaped up quickly and curled its body up tightly.
At that very moment, the green cannonball arrived right behind Deep Sea Taihou.
Green flames exploded on the ship's rigging behind Abyssal Taihou. Iron filings scattered everywhere. Abyssal Taihou gritted her teeth, and as black blood splattered, her humanoid form was blasted away by the blast. The distance between the two increased rapidly after the blast, and Abyssal Taihou gradually escaped the sight of the green Abyssal Dean.
After the Great Phoenix of the Deep Sea gradually disappeared, the Green Deep Sea Dean slowly stopped walking.
She frowned, looking down at her ship's rigging that was still smoking, seemingly regretting firing that shot.
The Green Dean lowered his body, looked at the wreckage of the Deep Sea Taihou floating on the water, and closed his eyes to think for a while.
After a long while, she opened her eyes again and chased after the area where the Deep Sea Phoenix had disappeared.

The Deep Sea Phoenix's body fell from mid-air onto the sea surface. She struggled to steady herself and, relying on the powerful momentum from the cannon fire behind her, fled rapidly forward.
As the deep-sea giant phoenix fled for its life, its legs gradually went numb, its hands gradually lost feeling, and its body was in excruciating pain. With every movement beneath its skin, the sound of bones breaking could be heard.
Finally, the heavy rain gradually stopped, and the deep-sea giant phoenix could no longer run.
A faint gray tinge gradually settled over her eyes.
She wasn't a ship girl, and without the invincible, heavily damaged protection of a ship girl, her body was just a weak abyssal amphibious ship with a short health bar and low defense. A ship girl could easily finish her off with a single shot, let alone the abyssal dean above her.
When she withstood the Green Dean's cannon fire, Abyssal Taihou's ship equipment was shattered, and her body suffered irreversible damage afterward. Even if she managed to escape, given her injuries, death was only a matter of time.
Even a god who died at the age of seventy-three (fourth year) could not save her.
The deep-sea giant phoenix knelt on the sea surface, its entire body lying flat on the water like a tattered rag.
Black blood kept flowing from the horrifying wound on her back.
The deep-sea giant phoenix lay in black blood, her lifeless eyes staring ahead. She gritted her teeth and dragged herself forward.
As the Deep Sea Phoenix moved, mouthfuls of black liquid flowed from her mouth and into the seawater, but she did not stop. She breathed numbly and moved forward inch by inch.
She could feel her body weakening rapidly, her strength flowing out of her body like steam through her wounds, and a cold sensation spreading from her limbs.
Even the most foolish deep-sea giant phoenix knows that this is a sign of death.
Chapter 666 I've Come to Take You Home (Fourth Update)
This is the feeling of death etched into the souls of all the deep sea.
However, the deep sea is not afraid of death. For the deep-sea vessel, death is only the beginning. Its body will be decomposed by the sea, collected by the resentment of the deep sea, and reassembled into a brand new deep-sea vessel, becoming a brand new life.
The deep sea is fearless.
As the deep-sea giant phoenix moved into the distance, it thought to itself.
I will not die. I am just a split offspring of the Deep Sea Taihou, a strand of hair, a fingernail, or even a dandruff flake from the real Deep Sea Taihou. Therefore, I have no concept of death; it is merely disappearance or destruction.
The deep-sea giant phoenix moved and moved, until it could move no more. It lay on the surface of the sea, breathing softly.
The icy, tangerine-like sensation had penetrated deep into her body. The deep-sea resentment seemed impatient to begin dissecting her flesh, like a vulture feeding on a carcass, guarding her side, waiting for her to breathe her last before devouring her limbs.
—Then why should I struggle?
His mission was over. After completing the task entrusted to him by the will of the deep sea and finding the Dean of the Deep Sea, his mission was complete.
Why should I struggle to survive?
The deep-sea giant phoenix asked itself.
Two lines of tears streamed from her eyes, down her nose, and mixed with blood as they flowed into the sea.
It hurts.
Because death is a very, very painful thing.
The deep-sea giant phoenix is not afraid of death, but it is afraid of pain.
As the deep-sea phoenix cried, the deathly gray in her eyes deepened, and slowly, her vision began to blur.
The wound on my back hurts so much, my broken hand hurts so much, my legs hurt so much, my dizzy head hurts so much, my eyes hurt because I can't see anything, and my chest hurts so much because it's creaking.
"Waaaaah... Waaaaah... Waaaaah..." Deep Sea Taihou cried out.
Darkness gradually enveloped Taihou's body and swallowed her thoughts.
The feeling of someone dying is really painful.
"Ah, here it is." Just then, a familiar voice rang out beside Deep Sea Taihou.
Then, a pair of warm hands lifted Deep Sea Daihou's body up and held her in their arms.
Deep Sea Taihou felt someone holding her hand, and a warm feeling traveled through her hand inch by inch into her body.
"Thank you, the Deep Sea Will has indeed received your message." A warm voice echoed around the Deep Sea Taihou.
A warm feeling gradually seeped into Deep Sea Taihou's body. Soon, the deathly gray in Deep Sea Taihou's eyes faded, and she regained her sight as if in a final burst of energy.
The deep-sea giant phoenix stared blankly at what was in front of it.
Under the moonlight, a white-haired girl in her pajamas was holding her own hand and smiling at her.
"Xiao Hong, I've come to take you home."
Xiaobai smiled and stroked Abyssal Taihou's forehead, activating his Admiral Network. The Admiral Network penetrated deep into Abyssal Taihou's body, quickly seizing a wisp of spiritual energy within Abyssal Taihou's ship equipment.
Taihou's mental strength was already extremely weak. After the damage to her ship equipment, her mental strength was as fragile as a small flame that could be extinguished at any moment.
Xiaobai gently enveloped the spiritual power of Deep Sea Taihou, assimilating it as gently as possible back into her admiral network.
"Well done." Xiaobai stroked Shenhai Taihou's forehead and smiled at her.
As Xiaobai moved, the body of Deepsea Taihou in her arms grew colder and colder. Finally, after Xiaobai completely separated Deepsea Taihou's spiritual power from her ship equipment and wrapped it in her admiral network, Deepsea Taihou in the real world slowly quieted down.
This body died on a physical level after Xiaobai drew the spiritual energy back into it.
Xiaobai, holding the "corpse" of the Deep Sea Taihou, breathed a sigh of relief.
"Luckily, we made it in time." Xiaobai muttered to herself as she released the "corpse" of the Deep Sea Giant Phoenix back onto the sea surface.
Having lost its vitality, the deep-sea vessel could no longer stand on the water's surface. As Xiaobai let go, it gradually sank to the bottom.
Under Shiro's watchful gaze, the Deep Sea Phoenix gradually sank into the sea, sinking deeper and deeper until it was finally swallowed by the endless darkness and disappeared.
Little White looked down at the water.
Not long after, with the faint sound of paddling, green light gradually lit up the water not far away, and a deep-sea dean carrying a huge green ship's equipment rushed out.
The Dean of the Green Deep Sea arrived at the scene following the scent. She stretched out her hand, dispelling the deep-sea resentment swirling around her, and looked towards the sea in front of her.
On the sea surface stained with black blood, there was no sign of the expected deep-sea giant phoenix, but instead, there was a white-haired girl whom I had never seen before.
Dean Green Deep Sea looked at Xiaobai, his eyes revealing his doubts.
Little White, who had been looking down, slowly raised her head and looked at the approaching Green Deep Sea Dean.
Xiao Bai smiled as she looked at the green courtyard. She gently waved her hand, and with a flash of white light, a rumble was heard as a white and blue land-based ship rigging emerged from behind her and landed on the water.
The massive, fortress-like land-based ship equipment landed on the water, instantly creating wave after wave of water pushing outwards. As the land-based ship equipment landed on the water, Xiaobai's golden pupils burned like flames.
Dean Green had been staring at Little White with some curiosity, wondering about Little White's identity.
However, this relaxed mindset completely disappeared after Xiaobai released his ship equipment.
Upon seeing Xiaobai's ship equipment, the Dean of the Green Deep Sea took several steps back. Her eyes widened, and she bent down with all her might, staring intently at Xiaobai. Beads of cold sweat streamed down her face. She leaned tightly against the ship equipment, aiming her gaze at Xiaobai from afar, looking as if she were facing a formidable enemy.

The ship girls, led by Bismarck and Missouri, rushed over afterward.
The ship girls broke through the deep-sea resentment and quickly arrived at Xiaobai's side.
"Admiral, we're here!" As soon as the four Fubuki sisters broke through the black mist, they saw Shiro, who had released her ship equipment, sitting on the water, quietly leaning against her ship equipment.
Xiaobai, who was leaning against the ship's rigging, heard Fubuki's voice, turned her head, waved to the ship girls, and gave them a friendly smile.
"Wow, Admiral!" The four Fubuki sisters and Changchun couldn't contain their joy when they saw that their beloved admiral was alright. They rushed straight to Xiaobai, and the five destroyers buried Xiaobai in one go.
Missouri and Bismarck looked at Little White and breathed a sigh of relief.
They turned their heads and looked at the other side of Xiaobai.
When they saw the other side of the sea, Bismarck and Missouri, along with Saratoga and the constellation behind them, were all taken aback.
On the other side of Xiaobai, the sea was in complete disarray.
Countless pieces of downed aircraft wreckage floated on the sea, along with dark, gleaming shells. Shipwrecks lay scattered everywhere, exuding an air of decay in the black water. A strong, pungent smell of gunpowder rose from the seawater.
In that sea area, a deep-sea dean, whose body was charred black and whose face was unrecognizable by the bombing, was floating on the surface of the water, rising and falling with the waves like a piece of driftwood.
The ship girls shifted their shocked gazes from the charred-covered Deep Sea Dean to Little White, who was embracing and smiling warmly with five destroyers.
The ship's equipment behind Xiaobai was completely undamaged, as was Xiaobai herself. Her pajamas were neatly worn, with only a few black stains on her chest barely proving that she had been in battle.
I heard that if you send this author a lot of razor blades, you'll see many updates.
Chapter 667 A true admiral dares to tear apart the deep sea.
Several ship girls slowly walked to Xiaobai's side, looking at her with different expressions as she was surrounded by destroyers.
"Admiral..." Constellation covered her mouth, looking extremely surprised, and looked at the large ship equipment behind Xiaobai.
Of all the ship girls present, Constellation is probably the one most affected.
What kind of existence are ship girls?
Ship girls are powerful beings who come to the aid of, protect, and save the lives of weak humans who are unable to resist the brutal Abyssal Fleet. Protecting humanity is the mission and duty of ship girls. As admirals, each ship girl has only one admiral. They do not possess the combat power of ship girls; they are merely responsible for leading them, taking care of their lives, and helping them integrate into the human world.
However, at this moment, this concept completely collapsed in the minds of the new ship girl constellations.
Constellation stared at the ship's equipment behind Xiaobai, feeling as if rusty gears were stuck in her head, making it difficult for her to think properly.
—What is this? Why is it so big? Is this the Admiral? What's going on? What's happening?
Didn't you say that humans are all weak saplings, and that the admirals need the ship girls to open their strong and broad arms to protect them?
The constellations are starting to swirl in the wind.
But why would such terrifying ship equipment appear behind one's own admiral?
Who's protecting whom, really?
"Constellation." Just as Constellation was in disarray, Little White, who was surrounded by destroyers, gently called out to Constellation.
"Ah? Ah! I'm here!" Constellation's shoulders twitched, and she quickly stood up straight, cautiously looking at Little White.
"I haven't found a suitable opportunity to explain to you before, but I also have ship equipment," Xiaobai said to the constellation.
"Oh..." Constellation nodded blankly, "...And then?"
"Huh? That's it?"
"..." The constellation showed a puzzled expression.
While the constellations were still incomprehensible, Tirpitz, who had been silent all along, reached out and gently patted her shoulder.
Constellation turned her head and saw Tirpitz staring at her with scarlet eyes, giving her a thumbs up: "Get used to it, many people in the world have their own strengths."
"……what?"
"For example, some people are taller, some are shorter, or some boys are very handsome, and some girls have a (beep) on their genitals. So if you understand it this way, it's not a big deal that our admiral has a ship's equipment on his body," Tirpitz said to the constellation.
The constellation looked at Tirpitz, tears streaming down its face.
To be honest, after listening to Tirpitz's words, Constellation thought it wouldn't work.
No matter how you look at it, it's not normal for a girl's body to suddenly have a bunch of iron blocks growing on it. Besides, aren't girls with ship equipment ship girls? Is my admiral really human now?
"Don't dwell on this kind of thing, it'll be fine in a few days."
"Will the admiral explain this to me in a few days?"
"No, what I mean is that in a few days you'll get used to the admiral having a piece of ship equipment on him." Tirpitz said to Constellation, exchanging a glance with the little white figure behind Constellation.
“Your clothes are dirty.” Bismarck had been staring at Little White the whole time, and only spoke to him now that the conversation had finally ended.
"Ah, here?" Xiaobai pointed to a black stain on her pajamas and smiled awkwardly. "Ah... I got this on by accident."
