Elder brother's garrison

"Huh? Uh..." Xiaobai blinked, glanced at Jinan, "Well... it's not impossible... How about Jinan too?"

"Yay!" Jinan raised his hands and jumped off the bench.

With Xiaobai by my side, I feel much safer in Anshan.

Anshan straightened his disheveled clothes, swayed as he stepped off the bench, and collapsed weakly into Xiaobai's arms.

Xiao Bai quickly helped Anshan up.

Anshan, are you alright?

"Hmm...it's alright..." Anshan sighed, "It's alright as long as the Admiral is by my side..."

Anshan's appearance and figure are almost identical to Changchun's, and even the feel of their skin is very similar. The reason why she looked completely different from Changchun before was mainly because her expression and temperament were completely different, apart from the difference in hairstyle and eye color.

At this moment, Anshan suddenly showed such a weak and helpless expression that Xiaobai almost mistook her for Changchun, who was feeling down.

Xiao Bai, supporting Anshan, glanced back at Changchun.

Changchun tilted his head, his clear eyes meeting Xiaobai's gaze.

Xiao Bai turned around and patted Anshan on the shoulder.

"Let's go see Veneto now. They should have just finished get off work at the training ground."

"it is good!"

Xiao Bai and his group arrived at the training ground.

The training ground's closing time coincided with the overtime hours of the admirals in the chapter city. When Xiaobai and her group arrived at the training ground, Luo Lian had already dismissed her ship girls and gone back to rest.

Even so, on the platform beside the training field, Xiaobai could still see a familiar green figure.

The lush green figure lay prone on the ground, under the watchful eyes of Xiaobai and her group, exuding a strong smell of gunpowder. Beside her lay the hull of a cracked ship equipment repair device.

Beside the lush green figure, a ship girl dressed in a fluffy, pajamas-like outfit was squatting on the ground, gently poking her head with a twig.

Before the lush green figure, the petite Veneto, with a dignified expression, stood with her arms crossed, holding a perfectly intact ship equipment repair device in her hand.

"Sister...is she still alive?" the Empire asked Rome.

"...If I keep practicing like this, I'll really be in trouble..." Rome lay on the ground, weak and listless.

"Your performance today was a bit poor, Roma. Have you been slacking off lately?" Veneto said, arms crossed, looking down at Roma below.

"Oh, not at all!" Upon hearing this, Roma immediately lifted her soaking wet body and said to Veneto with a wronged expression, "It was clearly because you hit me much harder today, Veneto!"

"Hmm? Are you questioning the fairness of my training?" Veneto frowned.

"Uh...no, I wouldn't dare..." Roma immediately backed down, kneeling on the ground in a wronged manner, her fingers pointing at each other. "Big Sister Veneto, I mean, is there any possibility...that you might be in a bad mood today?"

"……oh?"

"Waaah!" Rome immediately covered his head.

"Tell me, why am I in a bad mood?" Veneto didn't lash out, but simply raised his chin slightly and asked.

"Uh... this, this..."

"Speak quickly, or I'll increase the training volume tenfold."

"No, no... I'll tell you, I'll tell you..."

The Roman on the ground shuddered and immediately begged for mercy.

"I heard from the people around that the Admiral finally came back today. She even came over to see Admiral Luo Lian... But at the time, you were training the ship girls at the training ground, and the Admiral saw you were working and didn't disturb you. She watched you from the shore for a while and then left... So you didn't get to talk to the Admiral, so... you were in a bad mood... and you couldn't help but use a little bit more force... or something like that..."

Rome finished muttering to himself and waited for Veneto's reply.

But the atmosphere was very quiet.

From the perspective of someone kneeling and bowing in Rome, this posture only shows her own chest and Veneto's lower body.

Veneto remained motionless.

Rome gradually began to sweat profusely.

broken……

Did I say something wrong again and anger the boss?

But, but this is what the boss told me to say?

Wasn't what I said the truth...?

Could it be... could it be that telling the truth is also unacceptable...?

Roma began to feel afraid, trembling and breaking out in a cold sweat. Scenes of Veneto training him in anger flashed through his mind like a revolving lantern.

In that instant, Rome even felt where he would be buried and what would be inscribed on his epitaph.

Damn it, all those social niceties and interpersonal relationships are just too much trouble!

Rome gave up on itself.

Roma looked up at Veneto with a look of despair.

"Big Sister, how about I go to the training ground and run another dozen or so laps now... Big Sister, what do you think... Hmm?"

As Rome was speaking, she suddenly noticed that her eldest sister's expression was a little off.

In the past, Veneto's expression was always very dignified and serious, especially when she was angry. Her facial features would remain motionless, as cold and indifferent as a Mafia godfather.

But at this moment, Veneto's expression was quite lively, her red eyes were full of clear fluctuations, and although her facial expression did not change much, Roma, who was familiar with Veneto's micro-expressions, knew very well that his boss must be in a very good mood to make such an expression!

what happened?

What happened?

As Rome was filled with bewilderment and curiosity, a familiar voice suddenly called out from behind her.

"Rome, Veneto!"

Oh!

That's the Admiral's voice!

Chapter 3394 Deep Sea Gathering

Upon hearing this sound, Rome immediately knew that it was saved.

"Admiral! Is that you?!"

Rome whirled around, looking back with a face full of surprise.

Behind Rome, Little White was leading three missile destroyers toward them. She looked at the commotion on Veneto's side and a gentle smile appeared on her face.

"Veneto, it's so late, are you still giving Roma special training?"

Rome was deeply moved when he heard Little White speak to him.

As expected, the admiral is on my side!

However, before Rome could speak, Veneto's figure had already passed through Rome and arrived in front of Iniesta.

"Admiral, what are you doing at the training ground at this hour?" Veneto asked, arms crossed, looking at Changchun and the others behind Xiaobai.

The three from Changchun raised their hands to greet Veneto.

Xiaobai smiled and said to Veneto, "I came to see you. When I came this morning, you were still giving special training to Lianlian's ship girls. I didn't want to disturb you then."

Veneto looked at the Changchun family, who were smiling like little flowers, then looked away and nodded silently.

"Do you have anything to do right now? Would it be convenient for you to spend some time with me?" Xiaobai asked Veneto.

“I see,” Veneto said. “I’ve been quite busy lately, and it’s been a while since I’ve had a proper chat with the Admiral about everyday matters.”

After Veneto finished speaking, she slightly raised the hand that was crossed over her arms, and her bright red eyes, filled with the authority of an elder sister, glared at Rome behind her.

Rome immediately knelt on the ground, straightened his back, and opened his eyes wide, not daring to blink even once, just like a primary school student waiting to be disciplined.

"Rome, that's enough for today's training," Veneto said mercifully. "You should take some time to process what you just experienced in battle."

"Yes, Boss Veneto!"

Rome was incredibly moved when she heard this; she hadn't seen the sun on her way home from get off work in a long time.

Rome glanced at the setting sun that was about to sink into the sea, and felt a deep sense of emotion.

"How's Rome's training progress lately?" Just then, Iniesta asked Veneto with a smile.

"As for Rome, things are still the same lately." Veneto sighed and said to Xiaobai, "It's probably because she's been training with me for too long and has developed a lot of subconscious reactions to my fighting habits. Now when I simulate combat with her, it seems like she can't learn anything anymore."

"Huh? Is that so?" Xiaobai was a little surprised.

"Hmm..." Veneto said noncommittally, "After training with me for so long, there's nothing I can do about it."

Veneto's current strength is definitely superior to Roma's.

But probably because Roma has been trained by Veneto at a high intensity for so long, regardless of her own wishes, Roma's body has now automatically developed some muscle responses that are unique to Veneto.

For example, if Veneto takes just one step forward, Roma can predict whether he will fire a quick shot or anticipate the shot.

For example, when Veneto fired at himself, Rome could even sense whether each cannonball was fired at full power or at only 30%.

Veneto is, after all, a top-tier ship girl in the world. With her rich combat experience, she certainly wouldn't let her subconscious mind dictate her battles. Therefore, Veneto knows how to control her habits on the battlefield and not reveal her combat preferences. Logically speaking, Veneto's fighting style shouldn't be so easily noticed and exploited by others.

but……

Veneto and Roma are, after all, sisters bound by blood. In addition, Roma grew up being beaten by Veneto, so her understanding of Veneto has reached an unparalleled level. It's hard to find another person in the world who understands Veneto as well as Roma. Sometimes, even if Veneto stands still with no change in expression, Roma can write a detailed paper of tens of thousands of words, "The Big Sister's Thoughts Today," based on the way the wind blows through Veneto's hair.

The current battle between Rome and Veneto is somewhat like following a formula.

As soon as Veneto prepared to make a move, Roma reacted as if they had foreseen it. Although Veneto would still win in the end, after losing most of the experience in adapting to the situation, Veneto's training and combat against Roma also lost the possibility of improvement.

Rome is destined to become one of the world's top ship girls... but if this trend continues, she will probably only become a top ship girl for the "Veneto Special Attack".

What's the point of a victory if you only defeat Veneto?

This is not the outcome Veneto wanted.

"So, Veneto, have you considered changing your exercise opponent or something?" Xiaobai asked curiously, looking at Veneto's worried and stressed appearance.

“I have thought about it,” Veneto nodded, stroking her chin as she said, “I asked Missouri before if she had time to train Roma for me for a while.”

"What did Missouri say?"

"She said she could help me train for a few days, but she has some things to take care of for the seniors at Nia Garrison these two days, so she hopes I can wait."

“Oh… Missouri is indeed quite busy lately,” Xiaobai said. “The ship girls at Nia Naval Base get along very well with her, and many people ask her for help.”

“Yes, I do need their help, so I’ll have to wait.” Veneto put down her hand and nodded. “We have many powerful ship girls in our naval base, but not many can become instructors in Rome.”

"I see..." Xiaobai smiled upon hearing this.

Xiaobai's gaze passed over Veneto and fell upon Rome and the Empire behind her.

After smiling and exchanging glances with Rome for a while, Xiaobai suddenly spoke to Veneto with great interest.

"Veneto".

"Hmm? What does the Admiral want to say?"

"Do you think I'm qualified to train Roma?" Xiaobai asked with a smile.

“…” Veneto was stunned. “The admiral means…you want to be an instructor in Rome?”

"I probably don't have that much time, but if I have some free time occasionally, I might be able to come and fill in a little," Xiaobai said with a smile. "Anyway, the goal right now is to find new training opponents for Roma, right? I feel like I can do it."

“Oh…” Veneto thought for a moment, then looked back at Rome, then turned back to look at Xiaobai. “If the admiral wants to… it should be fine. It’s a good opportunity to see Rome’s progress during this period.”

Roma had trained with Iniesta once before.

Xiao Bai still remembers that he and Roma played a fairly even game back then, and he almost lost.

Now that there's a second reasonable opportunity to exchange blows, it wouldn't be a bad thing to have a little sparring with Rome.

Thinking of this, Xiao Bai smiled and glanced at Rome behind him.

Rome felt Xiaobai's gaze and suddenly shuddered, feeling a chill run down his spine.

“With the size of the Admiral’s fleet, this training ground probably can’t support your performance,” Veneto asked.

“Well, that’s alright. We can go back to the newbie naval base, or have Super Yamato help us find a deep-sea area,” Shiro replied, smiling and extending her hand to Veneto. “This is a rare opportunity, let’s go find Yamato and the others.”

Veneto looked at the snow-white hand that Xiaobai was extending. After a while, she loosened her arms that were clasped together and gently took Xiaobai's hand.

"Rome, the Empire, has risen."
