Elder brother's garrison

“Besides, Missouri is a ship girl, so she naturally carries some ship girl aura. Getting too close to Senior Abyssal Ryujo will only attract her attention more easily.” Missouri patted her chest and smiled at Xiaobai. “But if it’s you, Admiral, you have neither the aura of an Abyssal nor the aura of a ship girl. In addition, you haven’t shown yourself until now, so you’re the least noticeable one in Senior Abyssal Ryujo’s eyes. Therefore, this kind of covert operation is perfect for you alone, Admiral.”

Missouri had just finished speaking.

The final rumble of explosions on the sea suddenly intensified, and the triumphant roar of countless carrier-based aircraft began to echo in the sky, gradually drawing closer and closer to Missouri and Little White.

Missouri blinked, then smiled helplessly at Little White.

"It seems that Saratoga-senpai has successfully completed the task you assigned her, Admiral." Missouri patted Shiro on the shoulder and stood up from the water. "Then Missouri will leave for now to help you distract Abyssal Ryujo-senpai. Good luck, Admiral!"

Done.

Missouri waved gently to Little White, then reached into the air and pulled out a life-sized body pillow from her ship equipment space. She hugged it tightly to her chest and quickly left the way she came.

No sooner had Missouri left than the carrier-based aircraft roared violently in the sky, followed by a series of explosions on the distant sea before fading into the distance.

From the water's surface, Xiaobai watched Missouri's figure recede into the distance as she dodged the bombs falling from the sky. She looked up and secretly glanced at the Deep Sea Dragon in the sky.

At this moment, Deep Sea Dragon was focused on Missouri, which had somehow gotten close to her. She was fully controlling the carrier-based aircraft to bomb and drive Missouri away, and did not notice Little White standing not far below her.

It might really be as Missouri said.

Because Xiaobai doesn't possess any ship girl or abyssal aura, she is an absolutely neutral unit. As long as Xiaobai doesn't make any aggressive or conspicuous moves first, under the cover of Missouri and the others, she's like a shadow hidden in the night, making it difficult for Abyssal Ryujo, who is focused on observing the battlefield, to spot her.

Xiao Bai turned around quickly and rushed towards the direction of the Deep Sea Dragon.

The Deep Sea Dragon's long serpentine ship equipment remained firmly coiled on the water's surface, motionless, and Xiaobai easily ran to the bottom of her ship equipment.

Look up.

The massive serpentine ship's rigging was shrouded in an incredibly dense aura of the deep sea. The serpentine ship's rigging coiled up in circles, each segment of its body as thick as a single floor of a tall building. At first glance, looking from below, it resembled a coiled tower.

The main body of the Deep Sea Dragon should be at the very top, right?

Xiao Bai thought to himself silently, then quickly arrived at the tip of the serpentine ship's tail, lightly leaped onto the ship's rig, and climbed onto the body of the serpentine ship's rig by pushing off with his feet.

The sounds of massive carrier-based aircraft circling and roaring, along with the endless explosions of bombs, filled the sea. The smell of gunpowder and sulfur in the air grew stronger and stronger. However, the Deep Sea Dragon did not notice that a "small white ant" had already climbed onto its ship's equipment.

"Boom."

Xiao Bai gently stepped on the ship's equipment of the Deep Sea Dragon.

The ground beneath my feet felt incredibly hard and slippery, like the body of a giant snake made up of tiny steel scales.

The ship's equipment on this Deep Sea Dragon looks like it's alive.

"This ship equipment feels... um... subtly similar to Yamato's ship equipment whale..." Xiaobai murmured softly, "I thought only Yamato was special."

Xiao Bai patted her cheeks, clearing the fleeting thought from her mind.

Now is not the time to dwell on this issue.

Saratoga and Missouri have put in so much effort for their ideas; I can't let them down.

Xiao Bai took a deep breath, then resolutely looked up at the head of the serpentine ship rig, and then, following the tip of the serpentine ship rig's tail, like climbing a tower, ran up the winding body in circles.

The Deep Sea Dragon's ship-mounted serpentine body is both hard and slippery, making it difficult for Xiaobai to walk on. Fortunately, it remained steadily coiled on the water's surface. As long as Xiaobai trotted steadily and watched its step, it wasn't worried about being suddenly jolted by a sneeze and falling overboard.

Xiao Bai's running speed is still unsatisfactory.

In addition, since the Deep Sea Dragon had grown larger due to a mysterious buff, and didn't have the peculiar hobby of a certain bald, muscular man who wielded a flaming chain blade for revenge, whose relatives were giants who liked to set up numerous traps and minions on their massive bodies, Xiaobai's journey was actually quite smooth.

quickly.

Xiaobai ran along the body of the ship's rigging snake to near the top.

We haven't reached the very top yet.

Xiao Bai heard a series of smug, defiant sounds coming from right above him, directed towards the sea.

"How about that! This is the power of us Deep Sea Warriors!"

"Despicable ship girls, accept the punishment of justice!"

"We've finally endured hundreds of years of suffering!"

"Our deep-sea army has returned to the land as immortals at this moment, hahaha—oh cough cough cough cough—"

The triumphant protest suddenly stopped halfway through, turning into violent and embarrassing coughing.

Little White clung to the wall, stealthily approaching the top, and peeked its head out a tiny bit from the most concealed direction.

All that could be seen was the top of the Deep Sea Dragon Falcon's armor.

A snake head, as big as a bedroom, was stretched out flat. A petite deep-sea dean, burning with orange light, was leaping on the snake head a second ago, but the next second she was coughing violently and kneeling down, covering her mouth and curling up her body.

Behind her, a vortex-like black hole, about half a person's height, kept opening up, and wisps of visible deep-sea energy kept seeping out from the other end of the black hole, wrapping around the orange-haired Dean of the Deep Sea.

"Cough cough cough cough cough -"

The Dean of the Deep Sea, curled up on the snake's head, covered her mouth and coughed violently. After a while, she stopped, took a few breaths, and stood up from the snake's head again.

Xiao Bai happened to appear behind Dean Shenhai. In her eyes, she could clearly see that Dean Shenhai's hanging palm was covered with a thick black liquid.

—This is the blood of the Dean of the Deep Sea Institute.

Chapter 1494 Brave Boxing

……Blood?

Xiao Bai stared blankly at the Deep Sea Dragon's drooping hand, and finally his gaze unconsciously shifted to the vortex black hole behind the Deep Sea Dragon.

Did the Deep Sea Dragon cough up blood?

Xiao Bai was somewhat surprised.

Like ship girls, deep-sea amphibious ships will always be in peak condition as long as their equipment is intact. They are immune to cold and heat and are not bothered by illness. So, logically speaking, deep-sea dragons should not have any strange illness that causes them to vomit blood, right?

Xiao Bai was puzzled.

The Deep Sea Dragon standing on the snake's head seemed to sense Xiaobai's gaze. She turned around slightly and looked behind her with a puzzled expression.

Just a second before the Deep Sea Dragon turned around, Xiao Bai quickly lowered his head and tightly covered his mouth to keep quiet.

"..." Deep Sea Dragon looked at the empty ground behind him with a puzzled expression, quietly wiped his mouth, and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Sizzle s ...————"

Just then, the giant snake beneath the Deep Sea Dragon seemed to sense its master's condition, and its massive ship-mounted tongue opened its mouth, hissing out a concerned sound.

Hearing the concerned voice of its ship's equipment, the Deep Sea Dragon turned its head back.

"Don't worry, we'll be fine."

"Sizzle s ...————"

"It's just a few mouthfuls of blood, spitting it out will make you healthy. Besides, the more important thing right now is to focus on the present, right!" Deep Sea Dragon rubbed his blood-stained hands on his body, then rubbed his arms and said energetically to the ship-equipped giant snake beneath him, "Let's take down all these ship girls first, weaken their combat power, and then it will be easier for the boss to conquer the human cities!"

"Sizzle—" The ship-mounted giant snake made a whimpering sound, as if it were trying to persuade someone, but the sound eventually grew fainter and fainter.

The giant serpent's gaze returned to the ship girls who were constantly swimming on the sea surface.

Deep Sea Dragon seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, taking a few deep breaths before rubbing his shoulders. His originally straight back bent slightly at that moment.

Little White peeked out again, looking at the Deep Sea Dragon.

Under the cover of black mist, Deep Sea Dragon's legs were trembling slightly, and her upper body was slightly hunched. Although she remained silent, just by looking at her back, Xiaobai could almost imagine how much pain she was in.

Xiao Bai's gaze returned to the vortex black hole behind the Deep Sea Dragon, lingering for a moment on the black mist that kept seeping out of the vortex black hole.

obviously.

What caused the Deep Sea Dragon to suffer was none other than the black mist emerging from the vortex black hole.

It seems.

The fact that the Deep Sea Dragon's ship equipment could transform into such a massive form did not come without a price.

The black mist seeping from the black hole not only gave the Deep Sea Dragon immense power, but it must have also placed a great burden on her body...

As Xiao Bai thought about it, he recalled the image of Shenhai Longxiang kneeling on the ground, coughing in a sorry state, his palms stained with deep-sea blood.

Ok……

Moreover... the burden is quite heavy.

Xiao Bai glanced around the giant snake's head a few times and planned out his route to sneak up.

The sea was filled with the sound of explosions. Deep Sea Dragon was in bad shape, and both she and her ship-mounted giant snakes were focused on Missouri and the others on the surface. Xiaobai felt that it should be fine to sneak over there at this time.

Thinking of this, Xiaobai quietly walked to the head of the ship-mounted giant snake and stuck out her toes towards its head.

however.

The moment Xiaobai's toe touched the head of the ship-mounted giant snake.

Before Xiaobai could even relax.

As the deep-sea dragon was gazing at the ocean, it suddenly seemed to hear Xiaobai's footsteps. Its shoulders twitched, and it quickly turned around to look at Xiaobai sneaking around behind it, their eyes meeting for a moment.

"Whoa!"

"Whoa!"

Xiaobai and Shenhai Longxiang screamed in unison in fright.

The Deep Sea Dragon was startled because it saw someone suddenly appear behind it.

Xiaobai was frightened because she saw the face of the Deep Sea Dragon.

The lower half of Deep Sea Dragon's face was covered in deep-sea blood, and her mouth and chin were stained with a thick, sticky black liquid. Combined with her pale face and tired dark circles under her eyes, she looked particularly frightening.

"You! You you you you you you—" Deep Sea Dragon was shocked. She looked at Little White, who was equally frightened, and raised her hand, pointing tremblingly, "When did you...?"

Deep Sea Dragon still remembers Little White.

Just before the battle with Xiaobai's ship girl, Shenhai Longxiang did her duty to scan Xiaobai and her ship girl's status. She was quite curious at the time why this well-developed girl with long black hair did not have the aura of either the ship girl or the Shenhai.

However, she later fought with Missouri and the others, and a series of accidents occurred in a short period of time, so much so that Deep Sea Dragon temporarily forgot about Xiaobai's existence. It wasn't until Xiaobai appeared behind her this time that she remembered Xiaobai's existence.

Xiao Bai leaned against the horns on the head of the giant deep-sea serpent, looking awkwardly at the deep-sea dragon, and swallowed hard.

"Uh... I, I came up here... uh... to see the scenery..."

Xiao Bai said awkwardly to Shenhai Longxiang.

Xiaobai is not good at lying.

Deepsea Dragon isn't stupid either.

Xiao Bai only saw a fleeting moment of blankness and confusion in Shenhai Longxiang's eyes before it transformed into a resolute hostility.

"Zizzi-"

The giant snake beneath their feet let out a furious hiss.

"It happened!"

Xiaobai gasped. She quickly turned to the side and grabbed the horn beside her, afraid that the giant serpent might shake its head violently and throw her off.

But even after Xiaobai clung to the horns for a while, its feet remained firmly planted on the ground. The ship-mounted giant snake did not shake at all, and none of the carrier-based aircraft flew towards Xiaobai's head.

"Huh?" Xiaobai blinked and looked around curiously. She thought Shenhai Longxiang had changed his mind, but when Xiaobai looked at Shenhai Longxiang, the hostility in Shenhai Longxiang's eyes did not diminish at all.

"Uh... um..." Xiaobai looked at Shenhai Longxiang with a puzzled expression, her gaze unconsciously shifting downwards to look at the vortex black hole behind Shenhai Longxiang.

"what!"

An idea flashed through Xiaobai's mind.

understood!

Since he had already reached the top of the giant serpent and was standing on the same plane as the Deep Sea Ryujo, if the giant serpent shook its head and threw itself down, the Deep Sea Ryujo would inevitably fall down as well. Without the giant serpent's protection, the ship girls below could easily knock him down with a few shots.

Carrier-based aircraft are even simpler, for the same reason: even if it's the Abyssal Ryujo's own carrier-based aircraft, if it's targeting the Shiro, the blast radius would be enough to affect the Abyssal Ryujo as well.

—There are so many constraints on aircraft carrier ship girls.

Xiao Bai sighed with slight relief, thankfully that Shenhai Longxiang wasn't a battleship ship girl.

But before Xiaobai could finish his exclamation...

Deep Sea Dragon had already rolled up its arms and was running rapidly toward Little White.

That's right.

Although the ship-mounted giant snake and the carrier-based aircraft cannot move, the Deep Sea Ryujo himself can launch a melee attack on the little white one while standing on the Deep Sea Ryujo.

"Although I don't know where you came from, since you dare to appear on our ship's equipment, you must be prepared, right!" Deep Sea Ryujo was incredibly fast. She flashed in front of Xiaobai in a flash, raised her hand, and struck Xiaobai hard. "Accept the full-force attack of Ryujo, the number one hero of the Deep Sea!"
