Elder brother's garrison

in other words……

As long as the attack intensity does not exceed Bismarck's skill threshold, no matter how many people come, even if they shoot the gun barrels until they smoke, empty the aircraft carrier's cockpit, or even shoot down all the torpedoes, Bismarck will not lose any health. Everyone will be exhausted and all they can do is polish Bismarck's armor.

Chapter 3550 The Origin of Stealing Aluminum

Bismarck's damage reduction skill isn't very useful against high-strength enemies, but its unique protective mechanism gives Bismarck an unparalleled innate advantage in bullying the weak.

The deep-sea creatures in Chapter 3551, their ship equipment strength really couldn't break through Bismarck's defenses.

Despite the sheer number of deep-sea troops in front of him, even if Bismarck got tired from stealing aluminum, he could simply lie down on the surface and take a nap while they attacked him. When Bismarck woke up, there wouldn't be any problems.

This skill... it's practically made for stealing aluminum!

For other ship girls in the newbie naval base, without Bismarck's super-powerful skill to crush weaker opponents, it would be wishful thinking to fight such a large Abyssal fleet and safely steal aluminum without firing a single shot.

Even if some skilled ship girls do possess the technology and ability, stealing aluminum is a long and arduous task. Whether one can do it and whether one can persevere are two completely different things. It involves working overtime and staying up all night for days or even weeks. How could ordinary ship girls withstand such prolonged exertion? They can't just sleep when they're tired like Bismarck; they also have to consider their own safety. Bismarck, on the other hand, doesn't have to worry about this because her damage reduction ability is passive and permanently activates regardless of her status...

Therefore, Bismarck was the perfect candidate in the world to steal aluminum, and the only one at that.

No one but Bismarck would do.

Even top-tier ship equipment like the super-large and the deep-sea dean level wouldn't work. For example, if she directly used her armor to take the cannonballs from the deep-sea grunts in Chapter 4, although she wouldn't be in much trouble for a short time thanks to the strong defense provided by her naturally thick armor, over time, as her deck was bombarded more and more, her health bar would still decrease.

After all, there is a fundamental difference between not losing any health and losing only 1 point of health.

Xiao Bai and Chao Da stood around the sea of ​​fire, watching the battle unfold inside, chatting amongst themselves.

Amidst the sea of ​​fire, Bismarck had easily taken down four more deep-sea carriers during this time. She had just moved to the edge of the inferno and was about to step on the head of a menacing deep-sea heavy cruiser to use the height to find her next victim. But suddenly, she stopped, and as if sensing something, the white cat ears on her head moved, and she turned to look in the direction of Little White.

Bismarck spotted two figures floating on the water in the distance.

“… Bismarck.”

Bismarck remained calm, her crimson eyes fixed on the two figures. She withdrew her hand, kicked away the deep-sea heavy cruiser that had been clinging to her waist, then jumped onto the water and jogged towards the direction where Shiro and Super Yamato were.

"Ouch!!!!"

The moment Bismarck escaped the inferno, the raging deep-sea army roared in defiance.

A barrage of shells flew towards Bismarck, who expressionlessly blocked them with his body, his movements completely unaffected as he drew ever closer to Xiaobai and the other two.

When Xiaobai saw Bismarck charging towards them, the two of them quickly raised their hands and waved at Bismarck.

Bismarck stopped a short distance from the two men and stood on the water.

Shiro and Super Yamato, one has no ship girl aura at all and the other is the head of the Abyss, so even if they stand on the sea, as long as they do not actively attack the Abyss, they will not be judged as enemies by the Abyss enemies.

On the water, due to this very characteristic, Bismarck was the only one silently taking the beating, while Shiro and Yamato stood unharmed not far away opposite her, as if they were in two different worlds.

Shells continued to rain down from the sky, pelting Bismarck's body with a series of crackling sounds. One metal ball after another bounced off Bismarck's head, and his eyes stared calmly at Shiro and Super Yamato.

"How did you get here?"

Bismarck asked.

Ding ding ding ding ding...

The shells kept hitting Bismarck, making the background noise quite loud.

"Bismarck, we've come to see you!" Little White waved vigorously at Bismarck, laughing and shouting, "The office building over there in Chapter Eight is finished! We'd like to invite you to take a look!"

“…” Bismarck looked at Little White, and she thought quietly for a while, during which more than a dozen shells were ricocheted off her. “…Chapter Eight?”

"Yes."

What are you doing in Chapter Eight?

"Eh? Bismarck, didn't you know? I'm the chairman of Chapter 8 now."

“…” Bismarck didn’t speak; she just stood quietly in place.

But for some reason, both Xiaobai and Chaoda seemed to see a faint, dotted circle spinning above Bismarck's head.

Finally, with an exceptionally powerful shell slamming into the back of Bismarck's head, there was a loud thud, and Bismarck's head swayed before he reacted.

“Understood,” Bismarck said.

"I understand now..."

“Don’t you want to be an admiral anymore…” Bismarck said, lowering her head slightly, her scarlet eyes looking somewhat sad.

"No, no, no, I think you still don't understand..." Xiaobai quickly waved her hand with a wry smile, "You can be both Admiral and Guild Leader at the same time... Look, didn't Guild Leader Sister used to be both Admiral and Guild Leader at the same time?"

“…Alright.” Bismarck finally looked up, the sorrow in her eyes gone. “I understand now.”

"Phew..." Xiaobai wiped the sweat from his forehead.

"So when did you become the president?"

"Just...just a few months ago..."

"Hmm." Bismarck responded crisply. She looked back at the sea behind her, at the deep-sea army that was still relentlessly attacking her, and then said, "Wait a moment, I'll go and make some preparations. With these deep-sea creatures around, the shells are likely to miss you, so it's inconvenient for me to go with you."

As Bismarck spoke, she made a gesture as if to summon her ship's rigging.

"Ah, I'll take care of this." As soon as Super Yamato saw Bismarck was about to fight, she quickly spoke up and stood in front of Whitebeard. "I'll help you, it'll be quick."

“…” Bismarck stopped turning around, looked at Super Yamato, and then at Shiro.

“Let Super Dahe come, she’ll be quick,” Little White said to Bismarck with a smile.

“…Hmm.” Bismarck nodded.

When Chao Yamato saw Bismarck retract her ship equipment, she took a deep breath to calm herself down, then slowly walked out, placing her hands together, pinching the ring on her ring finger as she looked at the distant Abyssal fleet.

Chao Yamato's gaze gradually turned cold, and a light shone in his blood-red eyes. He then slowly removed the ring from his hand.

Dean Shenhai's aura instantly soared into the sky.

The roars of the distant deep-sea army ceased instantly upon sensing the presence of the Deep-Sea Dean, like chicks choking on their own throats.

"roll."

Super-large uttered a single word towards the distant deep-sea army.

The deep-sea aura surrounding the giant transformed into red and black waves of energy, which slammed out towards the deep-sea army.

The deep-sea army's formation was instantly shattered by the black and red shockwave!

"Ouch! Ouch!!!!"

The deep-sea army roared again, but this time it wasn't a furious howl, but rather a panicked cry of escape.

The entire massive, dark ocean army was driven back by a single word from "Super Yamato," transforming into countless tiny black dots like ants, scattering in all directions across the sea, never to return.

The coldness in her eyes gradually disappeared, and she lowered her head to put the ring back on, the deep-sea aura emanating from her vanishing without a trace.

"Admiral, all done." Super Yamato turned around, obediently placing his hands on his chest, and said to Shiro and Bismarck.

“Bismarck, look, it’s fast, right?” Little White said to Bismarck with a smile.

"..."

Bismarck didn't speak, but just silently looked at Super Yamato, her eyes seeming to see right through Super Yamato, piercing into Super Yamato's face.

He walked up to Bismarck, looking very large and a little sweaty.

“Your ability is quite useful,” Bismarck suddenly said to Yamato.

"...Thank you, thank you..."

"Can I learn it?" Bismarck asked again, "That way it will be easier for me to return to shore when I finish stealing aluminum."

"Probably not..." Chao Dahe lowered his head and said somewhat awkwardly, "Only Dean Shenhai should be able to do this..."

"Pity."

Bismarck nodded and said nothing more.

With a wave of his hand, he summoned a teleportation vortex leading to Chapter Eight.

Xiao Bai glanced at the time and smiled at the two of them.

"It's about the same time, exactly two hours. Luckily, Bismarck, you didn't go into deeper waters."

"Ah."

Xiao Bai's figure stepped into the teleportation vortex and disappeared.

Super-large stood in front of the teleportation vortex and gestured to Bismarck to get on board.

Bismarck stared at the teleportation vortex for a while, then stepped inside.

“Speaking of which, Bismarck…” Super Yamato caught up with Bismarck and suddenly asked.

“…?” Bismarck stopped and turned to look at the Super Yamato.

"Um... I think you're right, I can't steal aluminum," Chao Da said cautiously.

“Actually, you can do it too. That move you just used was very effective.” Bismarck looked at the super-large robot for a while and then explained.

"Ah..." Chao Yahe scratched her cheek, pursed her lips, and followed Bismarck's steps. "Speaking of which, why is stealing aluminum called stealing aluminum...? What happened just now looked more like robbery..."

"Regarding this, actually, stealing aluminum wasn't always this big of a operation," Bismarck explained without looking away. "Ten years ago, when I first started stealing aluminum, I would only target lone deep-sea teams of five or six. After taking the resources, I would run off to find the next team before other deep-sea teams arrived. This kind of sneaky behavior, going deep into enemy territory, was called stealing aluminum... But after stealing like this for a few years, I found that it was a bit inefficient, so I tried to get more deep-sea teams together. Gradually, I found that it was more efficient and easier, although getting ashore after stealing was more troublesome... So it became what it is now."

"Oh...I see." Chao Dahe suddenly felt that his knowledge had broadened considerably.

Chapter 3552, Node 4-3.

Around the aluminum-stealing site where Bismarck was located, several squads of ship girls, who were fighting against deep-sea creatures on the water hundreds of nautical miles away, suddenly felt a chilling sensation as if they had fallen into an ice cellar.

The dark red aura of the deep sea swept across the battlefield like a fierce gust of wind.

"……roll!"

A cold and authoritative voice, devoid of any emotion, echoed in the ears of the ship girls like the cracking of an ice sculpture.

Buzz.

In that instant, the ship girls felt their minds go blank. Their bodies, which were engaged in fierce combat, and their ship-mounted weapons came to a sudden halt. Several ship girls who were moving at high speed even experienced a violent tremor in their entire bodies without any warning. As a result, one of them lost her footing on the water and fell into the spray of gunpowder-smelling waves with a splash.

blah blah blah...

The few ship girls who were still standing on the water all stared wide-eyed in horror as they turned around and looked in one direction.

"what sound?"

"Why do I suddenly feel a terrifying aura from the deep sea?"

"I...I felt a huge shadow loom over me, and then I was coldly glanced at by a pair of emotionless, blood-red eyes..."

"Is it...is it just my imagination?"

"How terrifying...how terrifying...I've never felt such a terrifying deep-sea atmosphere before..."

The ship girls murmured to themselves, still shaken.

"Hey! Wait a minute, we're still fighting!"

The ship girls, recovering from the shock of the immense deep-sea aura, finally remembered that their squad was still engaged in a fierce battle with deep-sea creatures. So, the ship girls anxiously shouted to their teammates.

This is a battlefield!

Being suddenly startled by the terrifying aura of the deep sea and stopping in your tracks is a potentially fatal reaction!

The deep-sea creatures wouldn't let this group of people have a chance to daze!

The ship girls quickly pulled themselves back into battle mode. They were filled with regret, their faces turned pale, and they even gritted their teeth, bracing themselves for the worst—being bitten hard by the deep-sea creatures that were taking the opportunity to counterattack, and for the team members to be heavily damaged. But what surprised them even more was what happened when their attention returned to the battlefield.

Because... the expected counterattack from the deep-sea creatures did not occur.

After the ship girls returned to the battlefield, they were surprised to find that the deep-sea creatures that had been swaggering and roaring at them just seconds before were now trembling and lying on the surface of the water. A group of huge mechanical bodies were lying on the surface of the water with their heads in their hands, not daring to move even a little.

Ok? ? ?

The ship girls were immediately dumbfounded.

what?

Were they also frightened by the deep-sea atmosphere just now?

And it seems... the impact they received was even greater than that on their own ship girls?

Although they didn't quite understand what was happening, the ship girls seized the opportunity. At the critical moment when the deep-sea creatures were trembling on the surface of the water, they raised their ship equipment and launched a full-scale attack on them. In a symphony of shells and carrier-based aircraft, they wiped out all the motionless deep-sea creatures.

The battle is over; it was a false alarm.

The ship girls, panting, looked at the deep-sea creatures that had turned into fragments and wreckage floating on the surface of the water. They exchanged glances and couldn't help but swallow hard.
