Elder brother's garrison

"Correct."

"It's strange."

"what happened?"

“Based on my understanding of the Admiral, you don’t seem to be someone who lacks money or resources.” Montana gently stroked his pointed chin with his index and middle fingers, his eyes fixed on Xiaobai. “If the Admiral wanted, he could easily own a large naval base in this city, right? Why would he bother sharing with others? Is the Admiral a very frugal person… If so, I happen to have a lot of supplies on my ship. If you exchange them for some funds, you might be able to purchase a temporary naval base that belongs only to you. Consider it a gift from me.”

Montana seems to care a lot about Little White.

But upon hearing Montana's words of concern, Xiaobai could only smile with a mixture of gratitude and helplessness.

“It’s alright, Montana.” Little White shook his head and smiled at her, “I appreciate your kindness, but I’m very happy living here. The people I live with here… are all very good friends to whom I can entrust my secrets.”

“I see.” Montana raised an eyebrow knowingly, lowered her hand, and nodded. “I was being presumptuous.”

“I’m so glad you’re thinking of me,” Xiaobai said to Montana. “As for that ship you just mentioned… you mean the gift that all the admirals gave you in Chapter 8, right? Well, I don’t want anything from that ship. It’s all yours. But if you think it’s too much trouble to organize it, I can ask someone to help you organize it. Store everything that can be stored, and turn everything that can be turned into merit money, so it can be your private treasury in the future.”

In Chapter 3076, the gifts that all the admirals gave to Montana in order to please the salvaged ship girls have now accumulated to a rather terrifying number.

The ship was so well-stocked that no admiral could resist drooling at the sight of it.

Fortunately, a commander with Xiaobai's wealth wouldn't covet his own ship girl's dowry. What belongs to the ship girl must belong to her, and Xiaobai wouldn't touch a single thing.

"The Admiral is really kind-hearted," Montana said with a smile to Little White.

"I'm not just warm-hearted, you know." Little White turned around and gently pushed open the gate of the temporary garrison. "Alright, we're home—"

The heavy door rumbled open, but was gently pushed open a crack by Xiaobai's delicate white hands.

Little White and Montana walked through the gates of the temporary garrison, then slammed the gates shut behind them.

Behind the gate of the temporary naval base, a whole courtyard of ship girls had been waiting for a long time, holding mineral water bottles and confetti. As soon as they saw Xiaobai and Montana enter, they immediately showed joy and raised their items high in front of the two of them.

"Admiral! Congratulations!"

"Montana, welcome to the naval base!"

呲——

Snapped!

The ship girls gripped the beverage bottles tightly, mimicking champagne bottles from TV shows, spraying out narrow streams of water. Each latte art popped and exploded, releasing countless strands of colorful ribbons that rained down on White and Montana's heads.

"Everyone's here, thank you everyone." Xiaobai smiled at the ship girls, turned her head to gesture for Montana to come forward, and then said to everyone with a smile, "Look, this is the last special ship girl, the salvage ship girl Montana."

"Oh oh oh-"

The ship girls nodded in agreement.

"Nice to meet you all, it's an honor to work with you all," Montana said with a light smile.

"Oh! How polite!"

The ship girls were surprised.

The ship girls immediately crowded around.

“Montana…your name is Montana, isn’t it!”

"I heard that you've been accepting challenges from admirals every day in the 8-2 area, and you've even taken down all the ship girls who challenged you. I thought you were the kind of ship girl who was particularly proud and arrogant!"

"Wow, what an adorable baby face, but such a great figure... Why do these two things look so natural on you?"

"..."

The ship girls chattered excitedly, staring at Montana from head to toe, left to right, front to back.

Montana smiled silently, letting the ship girls' little hands grab and touch her body.

Well... this can be considered a unique onboarding ceremony.

"Hmm... Come to think of it, I seem to have heard the Admiral say that I was the last special ship girl to enter the naval base?" Montana suddenly seemed to remember something, and she turned to Shiro to ask, "Does the Admiral mean that there were already two special ship girls before me who appeared and each chose a naval base they were satisfied with?"

“Strictly speaking, you weren’t the last to appear… but the result was pretty much the same.” Xiaobai laughed from the side. “Before today, the other two construction ship girls and research ship girls already had their places.”

"What kind of naval base did they choose?"

"me."

"Ok?"

"It's me." Xiaobai pointed to herself and said to Montana with a smile, "The other two ship girls chose me."

Montana was uncharacteristically taken aback for a moment.

Montana looked at Little White's innocent and adorable smile.

"Does the Admiral mean that the three special ship girls, including myself, have all entered this naval base?"

“Yes,” Xiaobai said to Montana, “And Montana, you probably don’t know, right? Among the ship girls who defeated you in the challenge before… there were two special ship girls.”

"...I was actually defeated by two other special ship girls working together?" Montana felt a mix of emotions after hearing Xiaobai's words. She smiled helplessly and said to Xiaobai, "In that case, I have no choice but to meet them."

"Ah... I was just thinking of introducing them to you too." Xiaobai nodded with a smile, then waved to the crowd of ship girls, "Jinan, come here for a second."

"I'm coming--"

In the crowd of ship girls, a petite figure hopped around with her little hand raised. The crowd parted automatically, and a pink-haired little girl wearing a sailor uniform pleated skirt and a red scarf rushed into Xiaobai's arms.

"Comrade Admiral! Aren't I amazing? Aren't I amazing today!"

"Yes, that's amazing, we all have to thank you." Xiaobai patted Jinan's head and turned to Montana, "Montana, look, this is Jinan, the research ship girl."

“So petite.” Montana looked at Jinan with slight surprise.

"Don't underestimate her just because she's young. She was the one who initiated this plan to defeat you. It was also because she kept reporting your coordinates in real time that my missile battleships were able to deliver missiles from such a long distance to you." Xiaobai patted Jinan's head and said to Montana with a smile.

"What you're saying... makes it sound like missiles are delivered like packages."

"Wrong! Missiles are far more accurate and faster than express delivery!" Jinan turned to Montana and said confidently, "This is the confidence that technology brings us!"

"Um……"

Montana smiled slightly at Jinan, then turned to look at Xiaobai.

"So, Admiral, what about the other special ship girl?"

"Oh, the other one, she's right next to you."

“Beside me?” Montana looked around at his surroundings.

"For some reason, you can't see her right now." Xiaobai stepped forward, stretched out her finger, and gently poked Montana's navel, then poured her mental energy into it.

Montana suddenly felt a chill at her navel, and her body became itchy. She instinctively covered her navel and was about to ask Xiaobai what he meant by doing that.

The next second, Montana suddenly felt a pair of hands appear in his field of vision.

The ten fingers of these hands moved as nimbly as small snakes, slowly approaching their own chest.

"Hehe...this figure is just as good as my older sister's..."

Montana heard a voice that was as clear and melodious as a young girl's, but the tone was like that of a lewd old man.

Montana turned to look at the source of the sound.

A ship girl with pink hair and a magician's hat was seen reaching out her hands towards him.

Chapter 3077 Admiral, Human, Ship Girl, and Deep Sea Dean

Montana was slightly taken aback, but quickly reached out and grabbed the pink-haired ship girl's wrist before she could attack.

"Huh?" Jean Bart's eyes widened. She exchanged a glance with Montana, then suddenly turned to Little White and said angrily, "Admiral! Why are you already infusing Montana with your spiritual power?! I haven't had enough fun yet!"

"Haha..." Xiaobai chuckled.

"Hmm... I see. Your special ability is invisibility?" Montana looked at Jean Bart, thought for a moment, and then said to Jean Bart, "...No, if it were invisibility, the movement of the wind around you and the change of the dust under your feet would also be noticeable, but just now I didn't feel any changes in the surrounding environment... So your ability is to eliminate your own presence?"

"Wow!" Jean Bart's eyes widened. "How did you guess that?!"

“Montana, this is the ship girl Jean Bart who is being built,” Xiaobai said to Montana.

Montana released Jean Bart's wrist and smiled as he extended his hand to Jean Bart.

"Yes, it's nice to meet you. I hope I didn't hurt you just now?"

"Hmm...it's alright, it's alright." Jean Bart rubbed his wrist, looked at Montana's outstretched hand, and shook it with her. "This is much gentler than when my sister usually taps me on the head."

Montana and Jeanbart shook hands, their hands bobbing up and down.

After shaking hands, Jean Bart prepared to release his hand.

However, Montana, with a smile on his face, showed no sign of letting go.

“Huh? Montana?” Jean Bart blinked, looking at his hands that were firmly locked.

“Speaking of which, I really received special treatment from the two of you in the battle just now,” Montana said with a smile. “All the way here, I was thinking about what kind of person could defeat me in such a special way… When the Admiral said that you two were the other two special ship girls, I immediately understood… Well, in that case, in a sense, we can be considered three sisters with a special relationship, right?”

"Ah... well, if that's the case... could you... could you let go of my hand for a moment...?"

“Well, since we’re sisters, we should get to know each other better.” Montana stepped forward, smiling at Jean Bart, and said, “…How about we go to the training grounds to strengthen our friendship? Admiral, do we have a training grounds here?”

"Yes, there are," Xiaobai said.

"That's great."

"Huh? Wait a minute? Training ground? What training ground?" Jean Bart was suddenly dumbfounded by Montana's smiling expression. She hurriedly tried to shake her arm, but Montana's hand seemed to be fused with hers, and she couldn't shake it off no matter what she did. "Oh my god, no way! You...you...are you trying to get revenge on me?! I...I...I'm telling you, I was just following orders, you know. There's a reason for everything, if you...you...waaaah!"

Before Jean Bart could finish speaking, Montana hoisted her up.

Montana smiled and turned her head to smile at Xiaobai and the other ship girls.

“Well, this is a rare opportunity, and also a rare chance for us to introduce ourselves. What do you all think?” Montana said.

"Admiral, Admiral, save me—" Jean Bart reached out and shouted at Little White with all his might.

"..." Xiaobai smiled as she looked at the two of them. She smiled and said, "Montana, training is fine... but don't bully Jean Bart too much."

"Don't worry, this is just an exchange between two special ship girls." Montana said, carrying Jean Bart as she prepared to leave. "Oh, right..."

Before leaving, Montana seemed to remember something, stopped, turned around, and picked up Jinan from Xiaobai's arms like a chick.

"Huh?" Jinan asked blankly.

“And you, come along too.” Montana lifted Jinan with one hand, looked at her dangling legs, and smiled at her.

"Huh? Huh?? Huh??" Jinan blinked, looking at Montana who was so close, and suddenly felt something was wrong.

……

Boom boom boom!

Boom boom boom!

Boom boom boom boom boom! ! !

Flames crisscrossed and explosions rang out one after another on the training grounds of the temporary naval base.

Xiao Bai sat alone on the observation deck. She wasn't watching the battle in the training field, but was deep in thought looking at a piece of paper in front of her.

"Hmm... I didn't expect that after recruiting three special ship girls, the Admiral's Guild would ask me to report on their abilities and equipment grades..." Xiaobai held the pen, looked at the paper in front of him, and thought for a long time. "Hmm... As for the equipment grade assessment, we have Yubari here, so we don't need to go to the Admiral's Guild to do it. As for this report on the ship girls' abilities... Although Miss Yingying told me to just fill it out casually and not to take it seriously... but how should I fill it out?"

Xiaobai thinks, thinks, and thinks again.

First of all.

Let's organize the existing information first.

Xiao Bai looked towards the training field, his gaze falling on Jean Bart, who was being chased and beaten by the aggressive Montana.

Jean Bart, as a construction ship girl among the special ship girls, is also the first special ship girl to appear on this Holy Construction Day... Her special ability is "Observer" enhanced by the Holy Construction Day. Originally, her ability could only reduce her presence by about three layers, but now she can completely eliminate her presence... And this ability has a second part, which is that she can copy the abilities of most other ship girls.

This means that Barr's potential for growth is limitless.

Thinking of this, Xiao Bai turned his head to look at Jinan hanging on Jean Bart.

A smile appeared on Xiaobai's lips.

Jinan is a research ship girl among the special ship girls. Because she is the only small ship among the three special ship girls, her combat power may not have reached the high level of the other two ship girls... But even so, the abilities that Jinan possesses are still terrifying.

Jinan's ability to build a holy day can promote the ship girl's ship equipment modification, thereby further enabling her to obtain missile ship equipment... Although the probability of this skill being triggered is very low, it will happen sooner or later. Look at how Jean Bart obtained missile ship equipment.

In other words, with Jinan in the naval base, their own naval base will eventually have a large number of missile ship girls.

Thinking of this, Xiaobai breathed a sigh of relief and finally looked at Montana.

As for this... Montana.

She doesn't need to say anything more.
