Elder brother's garrison

Just then, a bright green figure parted the crowd again and walked in.

"Big Sister!!! I'm back!"

Rome's cheerful, yet oblivious, voice drifted over.

Everyone turned to look and saw Rome leading the empire, which was rubbing its sleepy eyes, as they walked over one after the other.

“The eldest sister said she wanted to see the Empire, so I woke her up and brought her here!” Rome said to Veneto as he approached her.

"Sister...?" Empire rubbed his eyes, still sleepy, his bewildered eyes slightly narrowed as he looked at Veneto, who was so close to him, then at Little White. "...Admiral?"

The empire teetered on the brink of collapse, heading towards innocence.

Xiaobai reached out instinctively.

The next second, the Empire's soft and sweet body fell into Xiaobai's arms.

Xiao Bai felt like the Empire was hugging him like a pillow, with its face pressed against his neck, and the touch of its lips was particularly noticeable on his neck.

"Admiral... welcome back..."

The empire murmured softly, then quickly fell asleep.

Little White patted the Empire on the back and smiled as he looked at Veneto and Rome.

"The empire is still the same as ever."

“…Yes.” Veneto nodded, looking at the Empire, at Rome, her gaze gentle. Then she looked up at Little White and continued, “Admiral…didn’t you just say that I had nowhere I wanted to go?”

"Yes."

“I don’t actually have anywhere I want to go… but I have a wish,” Veneto said. “If possible, I hope the Admiral can grant it to me.”

Chapter 3472 Littorio, the Novice Town Guardian

"Huh? Veneto, do you have a wish?"

Xiao Bai looked at Veneto in surprise.

Unexpectedly, Veneto made a wish to himself.

In Xiaobai's mind, Veneto was actually a rather unambitious person. Perhaps it was because of her pride, or for some other reason, but although Veneto got along very well with her, she rarely made any requests of her. For example, it was rare for her to even suggest staying overnight or having dinner at Xiaobai's place, let alone sincerely expressing her desire to her like this.

This is still quite a rare thing.

Thinking of this, Xiaobai quickly straightened his posture and made a listening expression towards Veneto.

Little White was very curious about what Vineto was going to say next about his wish.

“I do have a wish…” Veneto nodded. She opened her mouth slightly, about to say something, but her gaze swept over Changchun, Chaodahe, Rome, and the Empire, and then a complicated and troubled expression appeared on her face.

"What's wrong, Veneto?"

“No, it’s nothing…” Veneto rubbed his forehead. “I was just thinking about whether now is the best time to express this wish…”

Ouch.

Did Xiaobai make a mistake?

Veneto seemed a little shy about his own desires?

Normally, it's rare to even see Veneto blush.

Now Xiaobai was even more curious about the content of Veneto's wish.

"What kind of wish is this? There's even a time limit." Little White gave Veneto an encouraging smile. "It's okay, don't worry about it. Veneto, just tell me. If it's what you want to wish for, I'll do everything I can to make it happen."

"Thank you, Admiral." Upon hearing this, Veneto's embarrassed expression eased somewhat. She turned her head to look at the training ground, watched the ship girls fighting fiercely on the water for a while, and continued, "Admiral... actually, my wish is to have a younger sister."

"Huh?" Xiaobai was taken aback.

"Huh?" Changchun was also taken aback.

The Empire cast a questioning glance at them, and Rome also stood up abruptly, looking at Veneto with a look of fear.

"Big Sister, you...you...what do you mean by that?!" Roma rushed forward, throwing herself onto Veneto's lap and clinging tightly to her legs. "Big Sister, you...you...you're not going to abandon me, are you?! Big Sister, please don't! Roma is your sister in life and in death, I can't live without you! Is it because my training wasn't hard enough? I...I can double my training, Big Sister, please don't leave me, waaaaaah..."

Rome, like a little pet about to be abandoned, burst into tears and clung to Veneto's leg, shaking it incessantly.

As Roma moved, her curvaceous body and the heavy mass around her chest pressed and rubbed against Veneto's thighs.

In his haste, Roma was completely unaware of his own movements, but those around him clearly saw Veneto's furrowed brow and the sudden taut veins on his pale forehead.

broken.

Veneto couldn't stand seeing these things.

Rome is likely to suffer greatly now.

The people around weren't worried that Veneto would actually abandon Rome, but as they watched Rome flaunt its assets, they couldn't help but silently mourn for Rome's impending doom.

Even the empire beside them unusually bowed its head and made a crucifixion gesture towards Rome.

"Rome, are you showing off?"

Veneto reached out and pressed Roma's head down, asking her a question.

"Huh? What are you showing off?"

Roma's head was pressed down by Veneto, her sobs caught in her throat, and she subconsciously looked up, staring blankly at Veneto like a white lotus flower.

“Heh...you’ve got guts…” Veneto sneered at Rome.

"Huh? Uh... Ah???" Roma looked at Veneto, first subconsciously glancing down at her chest, then seemed to realize something, the color draining from her face instantly. "Ah! Big sister, wait, wait... Listen, listen to my explanation, listen to my explanation, what I just did wasn't... Waaaaaah!!"

Roma, terrified, covered his head with his hands, already anticipating a loving beating from Veneto.

However, the expected beating did not occur.

Roma covered her head in fear. She waited for a while and felt that everything around her was quiet. Then she cautiously opened her eyes and looked at Veneto.

Veneto still had a sneer on her face, but as she stared at Rome with that same cold smile, her expression gradually returned to normal.

Veneto simply shook Roma's head violently, as if Roma's head were an egg and she would take the opportunity to shake the yolk inside.

“Who said I’d abandon you all if I wanted a sister?” Veneto said, shaking his head at Rome.

"Huh? Huh? Huh? No, no, no, that's not what I meant..."

"What do you take me for? Someone who's fickle and easily bored?" Veneto scoffed. "Just because of that, tomorrow's training load will be ten times heavier."

"Ah... Big sister, wait, what's with multiplying it tenfold? People will die, even I will die now!" Rome immediately screamed and wailed.

Veneto, of course, ignored Rome's screams. She gently wiped her hands and looked at Little White.

"Admiral, the sister I'm talking about is..."

"I know, you mean Littorio, right?" Little White said with a smile before Veneto could finish speaking.

“Hmm…” Veneto opened her mouth, nodded, and then a hint of warmth appeared in her eyes, “Was my intention just now obvious…”

"It's alright." Xiaobai nodded, then smiled. "You seemed to be staring at the Veneto-class ship girls of Nia's family all day, intentionally or unintentionally. I thought about it for a moment, and our naval base's Veneto-class ship girls are just missing Littorio—so, Veneto, you want to meet your little sister Littorio, right?"

Hearing Xiaobai's words, Changchun and Chaoda behind Xiaobai suddenly realized.

“You understand me best, Admiral.” Veneto nodded gently. “During this period of training, I have been watching the Veneto-class ship girls of Admiral Nia’s family. At first, I didn’t have any thoughts, but as time went on, watching the four of them accompany each other day and night, I slowly began to get curious. I wondered what kind of person our Littorio would be if our naval base also had one.”

"I see, I understand your wish now." Xiaobai crossed his arms and nodded seriously. "In short, you want me to build Littorio, right?"

“Wouldn’t this wish be a bit difficult for the admiral…” Veneto asked.

The ship girls in the naval base basically all know that although Shiro's ability to salvage ships is super strong, it's like the waxing and waning of the sun and moon. When one ability is maxed out, the other ability is depleted... Shiro's luck in construction is really ridiculously bad. To put it dramatically, her bad luck seems to be as terrifying as if she were cursed by the construction device.

In Xiaobai's hands, failing to build hundreds or thousands of times in a row is nothing; she has never succeeded in building even once.

However, at this moment, Veneto's wish was for Xiaobai to build Littorio's sister for the newbie naval base, which was an impossible task for Xiaobai personally.

"If it were just me, this wish would indeed be a bit difficult..." Xiaobai gave a wry smile, but quickly changed her expression and continued to say to Veneto, "But after all, so much time has passed, and I've grown a bit now. It's just a matter of targeted ship girl construction, so don't worry about leaving it to me!"

After Xiaobai finished speaking, he took out his phone and dialed a number in full view of everyone.

"Hello? Is this a business? Are you available right now?"

……

In the end, Xiaobai pulled out the "strongest weapon" from the newbie naval base: the invincible aircraft carrier girl Enterprise.

Although Xiaobai's luck in building ships is not at the level of ghosts and gods, Enterprise is a top-tier lucky person. When it comes to building ship girls, Xiaobai can simply hand it over to Enterprise to build them for her. There is no ship girl in this world that she cannot build.

On the training ground, Hancock was still training intensely with the ship girls from Nia's family. Seeing that they were in a great mood, Xiaobai simply didn't disturb them and instead led the ship girls present away from the training ground and headed towards the outside of the temporary naval base.

As the group arrived at the gate of the temporary naval base, a slender, golden-haired ship girl with fluffy fur had been waiting for them for some time.

"Yay--Admiral!!! Over here!" Enterprise waved her arms happily, grinning at Shiro from afar. Her tall figure appeared exceptionally light as she moved around.

"Enterprise, we're troubling you again this time," Xiaobai and his group greeted Enterprise.

"It's alright, since the Admiral wants my help, I'll definitely do my best!" Enterprise smiled and nodded to everyone, hands on her hips, and said happily, "Where do we go next?"

“There are no ship girl construction facilities here, let’s go to the Admiral’s Guild’s construction floor.” Xiaobai said to Enterprise, “I also need to go to the guild to sign in this time, take over the work of the Admiral’s Guild President, say hello to Miss Yingying, and thank her again.”

"Okay!" the company nodded obediently.

……

Just as Xiaobai and his group left the temporary garrison.

Several kilometers away, inside the Admiral's Guild, Luo Yingying, who was writing a document in her office, suddenly shuddered. A chilling sensation instantly rose from the soles of her feet to the top of her head.

"Hiss—it's so cold!!!"

Luo Yingying hugged her thin shoulders, looking helplessly and blankly at the office.

"...Is...is there a draft somewhere?"

Chapter 3473 The President Leads the Campaign

The company has always had incredible luck, like a chosen one, a darling of the world. It seems that as long as the company is serious about doing something, everything will fall into place even if the company is doing nothing.

The enterprise is such an ridiculously powerful ship girl.

To be precise, it's a company in the rookie naval base.

"Huh? Admiral, Enterprise has disappeared again."

Walking down the street to the Admiral's Guild, Changchun was about to talk to the company next to her, but when she turned her head, she saw that the company's figure had already disappeared into the group.

“We don’t need to worry about her. The company has its own path forward,” Xiaobai said to Changchun with a smile. “The company will arrive when we get there, and maybe even before we do.”

“Oh…that makes sense, after all, she’s a business owner…” Changchun responded, nodding repeatedly to show her agreement.

The company's luck has always been so powerful that it's comparable to a causal weapon.

Actually, if Xiaobai wanted to, she could just keep having the company handle things like ship girl construction and equipment research and development. Then she wouldn't have to worry about things like construction and delivery at all. With the company's luck, all the ship girls in the world would probably be able to enter the newbie naval base.

The company certainly has the capability.

However, the company itself doesn't really like the behavior of people frequently using good luck to gain too much profit.

Therefore, even though she was a novice, she never forced companies to do things she didn't want to do. The reason why companies were willing to help her several times was because she could always find a reason why she had to help.

This time, when they accepted the construction commission from Littorio, Little White even brought out the ultimate trump card—Veneto's desire to see his sister. A kind-hearted company certainly couldn't sit idly by.

……

When everyone arrived at the entrance of the Chapter 8 Guild, Enterprise had already arrived early.

From afar, everyone could see that the company was holding several skewers of fried food, candied hawthorns and other snacks, as well as several boxes of takoyaki, hand-pulled pancakes, fried rice noodles and other snacks. She was squatting in front of the gate steps of the Eighth Chapter Guild, looking on expectantly.

"Company," Xiaobai called out to the company in the distance.

The woman in the distance paused slightly, turned her head, and saw the crowd.

"Admiral, you're finally here!" Enterprise happily held up the snacks in her hand. "Want to eat together? On my way here, I saw a boss rushing to leave work and selling off all his remaining snacks at half price, so I bought them all!"

"Enterprise... which route did you come from?" Everyone looked at the bags of snacks on Enterprise's back. "We just took the shortest route, how come you can walk faster than us?"

"The way we came?" Enterprise blinked, subconsciously thinking and recalling, "Hmm... I just went out, turned left, then right, then left again, and walked straight ahead. I came across a beach, then got into a car, and then..."

"Alright, alright, that's enough." Everyone smiled wryly.

The path that a company takes is unlikely to be replicated, and people take it for granted.

"Let's go check in at the Admiral's Guild first," Xiaobai said to Enterprise with a smile. "You'd better stick with us this time, don't leave again."

"Okay!" The company nodded happily.

The group entered the hall of the Admiral's Guild, which was crowded with people and bustling with noise, presenting a thriving and lively scene.
