Elder brother's garrison

“Admiral, although Missouri would very much like to help you, and indeed Missouri knows some ways to repair jewelry, this bracelet… Missouri really doesn’t know anything about it.” Missouri was also somewhat embarrassed, “So Missouri dares not make any assumptions.”

"Oh, so you actually have your own thoughts about Missouri?"

"...It's just a guess."

"It's okay, anything is fine, Missouri, tell me quickly." Xiaobai said to Missouri somewhat anxiously.

Missouri gave a wry smile and glanced at Deep Sea Yamato, who had been silent since the beginning.

"...Yamato-senpai probably has similar thoughts, right?" Missouri didn't answer Shiro's question immediately, but instead asked Deep Sea Yamato in a low voice.

Yamato nodded dejectedly.

"Missouri thinks that this matter should really be addressed by Yamato-senpai..."

"...I...I can't find the right words, you..."

"What is it all about?" Caught between Missouri and Deep Sea Yamato, Xiaobai was completely baffled by the cryptic conversation between the two.

“Admiral, Missouri guesses… the reason this bracelet cracked is because it couldn’t withstand Yamato-senpai’s power anymore,” Missouri said.

"Can't handle it?"

"Hmm, Admiral, do you remember that white whale from earlier?"

"I remember, so what's wrong?"

"That white whale senior, although its appearance is not much different from that of the purple whale senior, Missouri inexplicably felt the difference between the two seniors — ah, of course, Missouri did not mean to say that the purple whale senior was weak. What Missouri meant was that the white whale senior gave Missouri the feeling that he was facing the admiral."

"Huh?" Xiaobai pointed to himself, looking puzzled.

"Admiral, that whale-senpai's power might be several times, even ten times, or even more than that of the purple whale-senpai... Missouri doesn't know much about the bracelet that can shield the aura of the deep-sea senpai, but if I had to make an analogy, Missouri thinks those bracelets... are probably some kind of protective umbrella, or rope or something, covering Yamato-senpai's deep-sea ship equipment." Missouri said, "Yamato-senpai, having acquired the white whale-senpai, has probably increased in strength by more than just one or two levels. In other words... it's a bit like becoming heavier..."

"It hasn't gotten heavier!!!"

“…Sorry, Missouri misspoke.” Missouri smiled at Yamato Akami. “In other words, it’s like…yes, like Veneto-senpai just bought a new outfit that fit perfectly today, and as soon as she put it on, her age suddenly increased by ten years, so her clothes would naturally change accordingly…”

"Hmm? Won't it burst?"

"It can't possibly burst, right?"

Deep Sea Yamato and Shiro suddenly retorted.

"..."

Missouri's silent smile.

Chapter 1120 Wild or Domesticated?

"A chirp!"

On the sea.

Veneto, who was sitting on Rome, holding a pointer and with his legs crossed, shrugged and sneezed.

"Hmm? Boss? Do you have a cold?"

Rome, who was doing weight training push-ups on the sea while carrying Veneto, heard Veneto sneeze and found it strange.

“I’m fine.” Veneto looked at his palm with a complicated expression. “Maybe someone he knows was talking about me.”

"Hey—Big Sister, you have to be careful! It would be a real problem if you caught a cold while on campaign. Maybe we should head back sooner..."

"How could a ship girl catch a cold? No slacking off." Veneto gently patted Roma's head with his pointer. "You'd better train properly. After you finish the weighted push-ups, you still have three thousand zigzag movements to practice."

"Waaah...yes..." The Rome plan had fallen through, and she was on the verge of tears. "But...Big Sister, it's so late, when can we go home and sleep?"

"It's time for artillery firing training. Once the training is over, everything will be fine."

"May I ask about the artillery training..."

"After about six more hours of training, it will be time for artillery firing practice."

"What?! Does that mean I won't be able to sleep?!"

"Rome, when did you get the illusion that you could go home and sleep?"

"...But, but I haven't even touched the bed yet...I promise I won't stay in bed, boss, why don't you..."

"As long as I don't sleep, I won't stay in bed."

"Big sister, have some decency!" Roma wailed. "If this keeps up, I'm really going to become the first ship girl to die on the training field!"

Veneto changed his leg-crossing posture.

Subsequently.

The massive ship's rigging appeared instantly behind Veneto, and Roma, who was doing push-ups, was shoved into the sea by the sudden increase in weight.

"Admiral, help me!!"

Under the moonlight, on the sea.

Rome's desperate cries for survival carried further and further away.

In – she held a research position at Reykjavík Art Museum focusing on the role of women in Icelandic art. She studied fine art at the Icelandic College of Arts and Crafts and at Pratt Institute, New York, and holds BA and MA degrees in art history and philosophy from the University of Iceland. Sigrún lives and works in Iceland.

On the other side of the sea.

"In short, it's probably because Yamato-senpai's strength has increased beyond the limit that this bracelet can shield, so this bracelet can no longer shield Yamato-senpai's aura."

Missouri abandoned the use of metaphors.

"Is it because it exceeded the limits of this bracelet?" Xiaobai muttered to herself. She scratched her head and looked at the several bracelets that had been broken in half in Shenhai Yamato's hand.

The raw materials for these bracelets were scraps from ship equipment provided by Sukhbaatar. Putting aside Sukhbaatar's strange strength—being the world's best when she was powerful, but losing even hand-to-hand combat to submarines when she wasn't—her ship equipment was at least made of high-grade precious metals. Bracelets made from her ship equipment would definitely be more durable than ordinary street toys.

Therefore, these bracelets could not have been damaged due to their own quality issues. Missouri's speculation may not be entirely reasonable, but it certainly fits the current situation.

Just then, Xiaobai glanced at the cracked bracelet on Shenhai Yamato's wrist.

"Yamato-neechan, can this bracelet, which only has a crack, shield your aura?"

"This kind of thing... uh... because the ship equipment is retracted, it can barely shield the aura, but in this state, there's no way of knowing when the bracelet will give way and break off..." Deep Sea Yamato raised his arm and muttered to himself.

"..." Xiaobai covered his forehead, looking worried. "Uh... does that mean we need an even more powerful bracelet to block out Yamato-neechan's aura?"

“There are other ways. Senior Yamato’s strength is due to his ship equipment. If we destroy all of Senior Yamato’s ship equipment again, like we did with the newbie naval base before, and if we dismantle it thoroughly enough, we won’t even need the bracelet. Senior Yamato’s deep-sea aura will be so weak that you can barely feel it unless you’re standing right next to him.”

"Huh? Dismantling the ship's equipment?"

"Well... since Yamato-senpai is an Abyssal Fleet, she doesn't have protection against major damage... when damaging her ship equipment, there's a high possibility that my clumsy technique could endanger her life..."

"...Ah, it was Bismarck who dismantled it last time..." Little White murmured.

"No! Absolutely not! I'd rather die than accept that woman's words!" Yamato Fukami protested immediately.

"Ah...that's true...this kind of damage to ship equipment must be uncomfortable for Yamato-neechan, especially since it involves two living creatures." Shiro smiled at Abyssal Yamato, agreeing with her words, then lowered her head, looking worried.

Xiaobai understands why Yamato doesn't like Bismarck.

After all, she had been captured and brought to the naval base by Bismarck before, which meant she had lost to Bismarck once. If she were to ask Bismarck to perform surgery on her again, it would be an unacceptable fact for Yamato, who was somewhat proud.

And to be honest, Yamato Akagi also said that although she is living a carefree life now, in the past, destroying ship equipment was something that could make people feel the pain just by describing it.

Imagine sticking a toothpick under your big toenail and then kicking the wall hard.

Even deep-sea amphibious ships wouldn't have the courage to do something like that a second time.

Within the entire naval base, only Bismarck and Sukhbaatar were capable of destroying the Deep Sea Commander's ship equipment while protecting his life.

Sukhbaatar is currently in a naval base thousands of miles away. Since Yamato Abyss doesn't want Bismarck to perform the surgery on her, then no one else is qualified to do it.

It seems the only solution is to use the bracelet...

Xiao Bai looked troubled and sighed.

Actually, the difference between higher-grade bracelets is mainly in the quality of the materials. These bracelets are made from ordinary parts that Sukhbaatar took from the ship's equipment, not the metal from the core parts. Once I get back, I'll make a call to the naval base and ask Lexington to ask Sukhbaatar for some higher-grade materials. That should be enough to make higher-grade bracelets.

However, this place is too far from the newbie naval base, and considering the time it takes to make the bracelet, even if the newbie naval base goes all out, it will probably take at least a week for the bracelet to arrive...

Shiro raised his head and looked at Yamato Abyss with a complicated expression.

"It will take at least a week for the new high-end bracelet to arrive... If that's the case, Yamato-neechan, you won't be able to go ashore for a week..."

“I can’t go ashore for a week…” Yamato was shocked.

“Hmm.” Xiaobai sighed, “After all, if we let Yamato-neechan go ashore now, the quality of the bracelet on her wrist is really too unsafe. If the bracelet breaks in the sea, it’s fine, since there are deep-sea resentments all around. But on land, especially in Chapter City, if it breaks, it would be extremely dangerous for Yamato-neechan.”

"..." The color of the deep-sea Yamato gradually faded.

"Yamato-neechan, I'll go back to Lexington as soon as possible and ask her to help arrange things regarding the bracelet. I'll try my best to get a higher-level bracelet as quickly as possible, so please be careful during this time, Yamato-neechan." Xiaobai looked at the somewhat rough-looking Deep Sea Yamato with great concern. She walked up to Deep Sea Yamato, reached out and took her hand, and said cautiously, "Yamato-neechan, remember to conceal your presence. Don't go out during the day. Um... if possible, I hope you won't bully the ship girls when you see them. Those ship girls don't know you, Yamato-neechan, and don't know you're a good person. If a battle is unavoidable, Yamato-neechan, just beat them until they're heavily damaged. It's best to leave one conscious one who can take them back safely..."

"The ship girls also have dignity. Although Yamato can easily defeat them, if you go too far and the ship girls feel humiliated, it will be a very troublesome matter."

"Ah, there's more..."

"I will definitely come to see you often, Yamato-neechan. Don't be too lonely on the sea all by yourself, Yamato-neechan. When you sleep, remember to choose a place where no one can see you. If you want anything to eat, I will bring you snacks next time I come..."

Shiro seemed worried about everything, holding onto Yamato's hand and constantly giving him instructions.

Admittedly, leaving Yamato on the surface of the ocean is a very risky choice.

After all, it was an accident.

If you encounter a ship girl like the Deep Sea Yamato, you're doomed.

If a super deep-sea deity like Deepsea Yamato were to actually fight, the sense of powerlessness that ordinary ship girls would feel might even become a lifelong shadow. As long as Deepsea Yamato is on the surface, she would be an enormous threat to the ship girls in this sixth chapter of the sea.

what?

Is Yamato in deep-sea danger?

What a joke.

It took the newbie naval base three days and three nights to destroy it. The Abyssal Yamato's armor was so thick that it was comparable to a sea armored vehicle. Its defense was something that a few ordinary ship girls could not shake. Now, the Abyssal Yamato's ship equipment also had the power of Shiro, so there was no need to think about it. The Abyssal Yamato's defense had already soared to an abnormal level.

I reckon that if they just stood there and let ordinary battleships bombard the entrance to the ammunition depot, it would only be like scratching an itch.

Instead of worrying about the safety of Abyssal Yamato on the surface of the sea, we should worry about the safety of the ship girls who encounter Abyssal Yamato.

"Waaaah... Anyway, Yamato-neechan, I'll miss you! Take care!" Shiro reluctantly let go of the blank-faced Yamato from the Deep Sea.

Missouri also looked apologetic. She walked over to Xiaobai and gently patted Xiaobai's shoulder.

"Admiral, Yamato-senpai also needs freedom..."

"Um...I understand..." Xiaobai's eyes were glistening with tears.

“(OO)?” Yamato Akagi was a little confused.

--Um?

—Why? From Shiro, Yamato clearly sensed a feeling of great concern from the owners about their beloved pets' survival skills in the wild, seeing their pampered pets released back into nature for a seven-day survival challenge.

--Um?

—I understand the logic, and I do have a lot to complain about, but…

--Um?

Yamato is somewhat confused.

But if we really have to divide them, shouldn't I have always been wild?

Chapter 1121 Ship Girl Alliance?

Xiaobai held Shenhai Yamato's hand, looking at him with concern. Without giving him a chance to speak, she bombarded him with instructions.

Xiaobai reminded everyone that when you're alone in the deep sea, you should eat well, wear an extra layer of clothing when it gets cold, and pay attention to hygiene. She also mentioned that when you see ship girls, don't attack them immediately, try to give them a chance, be careful to protect yourself, and you can fight back if you get hit. She also told you that if you are bullied by a ship girl, remember to tell her next time and don't hide it, etc. It was almost a complete replica of what Xiaobai's mother told her when she first became an admiral.

Every word is filled with care.

Every word, every stitch, is meticulously crafted.

A mother worries when her daughter travels a thousand miles.

"And, and, Yamato-neechan, you..." Shiro stood on tiptoe, as if she had endless things to say to Yamato, continuing to give her instructions.

"Okay, okay, okay! I know!" At this point, Yamato Shinkai wasn't even sure what expression to make. Seeing that Shiro was about to start talking nonstop, Yamato Shinkai quickly reached out and covered Shiro's mouth. "Shiro, you don't have to worry about me. I'll be fine on my own outside!"

"Mmm..." Shiro's mouth was covered by Akami Yamato's hand. She stammered a few words and removed Akami Yamato's hand from her mouth. "Ah... well, let's leave it like this..."

"I'm a deep-sea dean who's lived on the high seas for hundreds of years. This kind of environment is nothing to me. I, Deep-Sea Yamato, have seen all kinds of storms over the years," Deep-Sea Yamato said, hands on her hips. "So there's absolutely no problem."

"Hmm... But Yamato-neechan, you've been on land for so long..."

"Hmph, I, Yamato, am a hero of the Abyssal Fleet, the Abyssal Dean at the top of the Abyssal food chain! Ten years of land life is but a tiny fragment in my long lifespan, if I so desire..."
