Elder brother's garrison

Glory breathed a sigh of relief.

Ironically, Glory now feels even more fortunate than if they had just escaped death from the Mysterious Seas.

"Thank you," Glory said to Missouri in front of him.

“No need to be polite. My senior is a rather serious and meticulous person, but he is still a good person. I apologize for disturbing you all.” Missouri bowed to Glory.

"Ah... no need for apologies or anything like that..." Glorious's expression was somewhat subtle.

Although he didn't have a complete understanding of the situation, Koei had a pretty good idea that the little white girl in his arms probably knew the ship girls in front of him.

—I heard them talking about the admiral... Could it be that Miss Pachina in my arms is friends with their admiral?

Missouri straightened up and smiled at Glory.

Glory smiled as he looked at Missouri.

The two of them just stared at each other like that.

"..."

"..."

“…Um…Miss Missouri…aren’t you leaving?” Glory was defeated.

"Pfft." Missouri covered her mouth and chuckled softly.

"Missouri even lied to Bismarck to help you. If you want to continue pretending, even Missouri will be heartbroken."

Chapter 793 One more kiss

Missouri said this.

Glorious and the ship girls behind her were initially confused as they looked at Missouri, but they quickly understood what Missouri meant.

It turned out she had recognized Xiaobai all along.

Looking at Missouri's calm and beautiful face, Glorious couldn't help but sigh inwardly at the cliché.

So this Missouri guy is the real big boss.

Glory originally wanted to try to salvage the situation by putting on an act, but at that moment, Xiaobai, who had been tightly holding Glory's waist, slowly loosened her grip.

Little White gave up struggling.

“…Ha…haha.” Xiaobai turned to the side somewhat awkwardly and looked at Missouri behind her. “Missouri…good afternoon.”

"Good afternoon." Missouri smiled at Little White. "What a dreamlike encounter."

Xiao Bai scratched his head, smiling somewhat awkwardly at Missouri.

Xiao Bai had considered this possibility; in fact, when the shrewd Missouri first appeared, Xiao Bai already had a premonition that things would develop this way.

However, in retrospect, being discovered by Missouri was better than being discovered by Bismarck; it was a matter of life and death.

Forget it, I'll just accept my fate.

Xiao Bai sighed.

"that……"

"Please say."

"Sorry……"

Missouri smiled but didn't say anything more.

"Glorious Sister," Xiaobai called out to Glorious at this moment.

"Ah, I'm here," Glory replied quickly.

Xiao Bai thought for a while.

In short, since Koei Tecmo has already helped me so much, I should at least introduce myself now. I didn't come out as an admiral, and it wouldn't be good if I accidentally revealed my identity when I spoke later.

“...Missouri is my companion.”

"Miss Patina's companion?" Glory and the others also showed expressions of "I knew it," indicating that they had been somewhat prepared.

"Ah."

"It's good that they're not enemies." Glorious breathed a sigh of relief. "But why is Miss Patina hiding from her companions?"

"...Secret...operation." Xiao Bai wasn't good at lying, and after thinking for a long time, this was the only sentence he could come up with.

Glorious stared blankly at the armband on Missouri's arm that bore the words "Admiral's Guild."

Secret operation.

Admiral's Guild.

Deep-sea cluster.

And that mysterious sea area.

These four unrelated words quickly connected in Glory's mind at that moment. Glory opened his mouth and sighed slightly.

"Oh, I see." Glory said that he understood and felt somewhat exhausted.

She thought for a moment, looked at Xiaobai with a complicated expression, then glanced at the sea behind her before slowly saying, "...You guys have something to talk about, then York and I will go for a walk in the back for a while."

It has to be said that Glory's decision made things much easier for Xiaobai.

After telling Xiaobai that she would be back in ten minutes, Glorious led the ship girls behind her toward a distant body of water and quickly disappeared from sight.

The metal shell that York had been dragging behind was also delivered to Little White.

"They were such kind seniors." Missouri smiled at Shiro only after Glorious and the others had disappeared.

"Mm." Xiaobai nodded.

Although they spent very little time together, Xiaobai still developed a strong liking for Glorious and the others.

Although Glorious and York are not very strong in combat, they have a friendly and comfortable atmosphere that makes Xiaobai feel comfortable, which is why Xiaobai likes to help them.

The sounds of gunfire could be faintly heard in the surrounding sea, and occasionally the figures of ship girls engrossed in attacking could be seen in the distance.

The first node of Chapter 794 was relatively safe during this period, after all, with so many ship girls clearing it out, the Abyssal Fleet couldn't pose much of a threat.

Little White pushed the metal shell in front of him towards Missouri.

Missouri, somewhat curious, gently pried open the metal casing and peeked inside.

The ship girls, barely clothed, exposed large swaths of their snow-white skin. They lay neatly together, and with their steady breathing, the air, mixed with the smell of rust and a faint sweetness, wafted over.

Missouri slowly closed the metal casing.

"...Admiral."

"Yes, I'm here."

"Admiral, have you finally made your move on the ship girls?"

"what?"

"Missouri can satisfy you with just one word from the Admiral."

"Alas?"

"So Missouri has lost her appeal to the Admiral after he's already won her over?" Missouri's voice carried a hint of sadness.

"???" Xiaobai looked at Missouri with a puzzled expression. "This is the ship girl who went missing yesterday."

"Missing?" Missouri looked at Little White with curiosity.

The surrounding area was filled with the booming sounds of artillery fire, but as long as the noise was kept down, there was no need to worry about being eavesdropped on.

"Hmm, don't they look familiar?" Xiaobai asked.

Missouri thought for a moment and nodded: "Is it the ship girl who did the exercise with the admiral a few days ago?"

"Yes, they've gone missing. The president told me that, and she asked me to find them."

"...Was it an attack by Dean Shenhai?"

"kindness."

"That Dean Shenhai..."

"It's gone."

After listening, Missouri opened her mouth, blinked at Little White, and then slowly exhaled.

"That makes sense, doesn't it?" Missouri laughed. "Was it Miss Deep Sea Will who made the move?"

"kindness."

“As expected of Miss Deep Sea Will.” Missouri smiled at Little White. “Missouri understands.”

This is also why Xiaobai felt that being discovered by Missouri was much safer than being discovered by Bismarck, because Missouri knew of the existence of the Deep Sea Will.

After all, during that period of time when the lineage was broken, Missouri was honed by the Deep Sea Will, so in general, the two of them had a master-disciple relationship.

Although Xiaobai didn't tell Missouri that the Will of the Deep Sea was currently inside her body, and Missouri never asked, Missouri roughly understood why Xiaobai had come to the surface of the sea alone this time as soon as the Will of the Deep Sea was mentioned. She could understand the rest with a little imagination.

Indeed, matters involving the will of the deep sea are not easy to explain to Bismarck.

"Anyway, thank you so much for earlier," Little White said to Missouri. "If Bismarck had found out, we would have been doomed."

“That’s how it is.” Missouri smiled at Xiaobai. “However, Missouri doesn’t think that Bismarck-senpai really didn’t recognize the Admiral.”

"what?!"

“Bismarck’s intuition is very accurate.” Missouri smiled. “Perhaps Bismarck realized it even earlier than Missouri. It’s just that Bismarck was unexpectedly naive. Even though the facts were right in front of him, he still chose to believe Missouri.”

"...Missouri, when did you recognize me?"

“Even if the Admiral’s hair turns black and his breasts get bigger, he’ll still be the Admiral.” Missouri laughed at Xiaobai. “Missouri recognized the Admiral from afar.”

Little White clutched his chest helplessly, gazing sadly at the sky.

Her perfect transformation seemed utterly meaningless at this moment.

"Yixian clearly said that this way no one would easily recognize me..."

“Hmm… judging by appearance alone, Missouri really wouldn’t recognize the Admiral.” Missouri nodded in agreement. “After all, even Missouri didn’t expect the Admiral, who should have been sitting outside, to set foot on the sea like this. However, Missouri has special methods for recognizing the Admiral.”

"Missouri, how did you recognize me?" Xiaobai asked Missouri curiously.

Missouri smiled and reached out to press the metal casing in front of her.

"How about Missouri sends these ship girls back to the Admiral's Guild on behalf of the Admiral?"

"You've been a great help," Xiaobai said gratefully.

Missouri pulled the metal shell to her front.

"Oh right! Wait a minute." Just then, Xiaobai suddenly remembered something. She walked to the metal shell, stood on tiptoe, and opened it.

The metal shell was filled with ship girls. Xiaobai glanced around and found her target. She reached out and took out the deep-sea supply ship that she had previously placed inside with the ship girls.

Missouri looked curiously at the deep-sea supply ship that Xiaobai had singled out.

Because Xiaobai had put the Sukhbaatar bracelet on her, even Missouri hadn't been able to recognize her true nature as a deep-sea amphibious ship.

"Admiral...who is this child?" Missouri asked with some doubt.

This is the only girl still wearing clothes inside the metal shell.

Therefore, their status should be the most special kind.

“This… consider it spoils of war.” Little White said to Missouri, holding the unconscious deep-sea supply ship. “This child… well… anyway, I’ll take him back myself first.”

Missouri revealed an expression that suggested she was already prepared for Little White's attempt to salvage the boat.

There was even a hint of admiration.

After the handover was complete, Missouri closed the metal hull and prepared to leave. After all, she was still on duty, and standing there idly with Xiaobai for a short time was fine, but it would attract attention if it went on for too long. Who knows, it might even attract Xiaobai's other ship girls.

"Then Missouri will take her leave first," Missouri said to Little White with a smile.

"Thank you, Missouri."

"Oh, right, speaking of which," Missouri said to Xiaobai as if she remembered something, "Admiral, if there are similar situations in the future and Missouri is needed to cover for you, please inform Missouri in advance."

"..." Xiaobai lowered his head in disappointment. "I'm sorry for making you team up with me to deceive Bismarck."

Xiaobai still felt quite sorry for Bismarck.
