Elder brother's garrison

Upon seeing Missouri.

Hindenburg's eyes instantly blazed with fierce fighting spirit again. She bared her teeth and growled a few times.

"Tch... let's have a friendly spar!!!"

Hindenburg took a step towards the sea and charged aggressively toward Missouri.

Hindenburg ran across the water, getting smaller and smaller in Little White's sight.

Little White watched Hindenburg's retreating figure and breathed a sigh of relief.

You don’t know until you see it, and it’s really shocking.

Previously, Hindenburg seemed so energetic and vigorous; I had no idea that Hindenburg's ship equipment had such a big problem.

The ship equipment in that kind of miserable and tattered state in the spiritual world cannot be repaired by rapid repair devices. It is a kind of disability that ship girls are born with. It will greatly affect Hindenburg's accuracy in using the ship equipment. To be honest, even if Hindenburg is adapted, she would be lucky to be able to exert 80% of her strength under such injuries.

Logically speaking, this kind of disability within the ship's equipment should be a terminal illness that accompanies the ship girl for life until she dies. Fortunately, Xiaobai's admiral network is strong enough. This kind of mental disability is just child's play in the face of absolute strength and precision. Xiaobai can easily solve it without even needing the Deep Sea Will to intervene.

Really.

As expected of myself.

Dr. Xiaobai watched Hindenburg's retreating figure with satisfaction.

After a while.

Xiao Bai's eyebrows suddenly furrowed.

"Uh... wait a minute." Xiaobai lowered his head and began to ponder, "I just checked Hindenburg's ship equipment level, and it's already at its maximum. After repairing the damage to her ship equipment, Hindenburg's strength should have increased significantly... uh..."

Wait, wait a minute!

Xiaobai finally discovered the problem.

Missouri did ask Xiaobai to give Hindenburg some buffs to strengthen her.

Uh……

But now, thanks to Xiaobai's compassionate medical skills and miraculous healing touch, Hindenburg has shed his disability and is able to unleash his full potential...

Doesn't that mean her strength has increased dramatically?!

oops! ! !

Xiao Bai realized what was happening and exclaimed in surprise.

Is Missouri still holding on?

Chapter 1273 Hindenburg's Skills

Hindenburg surged onto the surface, his entire body propelled by the ship's rigging, hurtling forward at breakneck speed, transforming into a black streak of light as he hurtled toward Missouri.

After Hindenburg's ship equipment was repaired and cleaned by Xiaobai using the invincible admiral network, all of Hindenburg's abilities seemed to have improved significantly. In just a few blinks of an eye, Hindenburg took the lead in rushing into the exercise area with Missouri.

Missouri and Hindenburg raised their main guns at the same time.

“Boom boom—”

“Boom boom—”

A tremendous cannon roared at the same instant, and two meteors shot out of the cannons, streaking across the sky and hurtling towards each other.

After firing their first shots, Hindenburg and Missouri quickly retracted their gun turrets and moved rapidly to their sides.

Two meteors struck the spot where the two had been standing, creating two towering sprays of water with a loud thud.

Hindenburg and Missouri emerged from their respective splashes.

"So light! So light!"

Hindenburg, carrying the gun emplacement, ran while muttering to himself. A gradually excited smile appeared on the small part of his face that wasn't hidden by his long hair.

No one knew the condition of Hindenburg's ship equipment better than Hindenburg himself.

Blueprint ships are a type of ship that could not be completed for various reasons. These ships usually do not have corresponding legends and should not be used as carriers for ship girls.

But the world is full of wonders.

In certain extremely special circumstances, it is true that even a blueprint ship has the possibility of summoning a corresponding ship girl. However, a blueprint ship is, after all, a blueprint ship. Even if a blueprint ship can emerge from its ship equipment in the form of a ship girl, it is only an extremely rare event that can be found in thousands, tens of thousands, or hundreds of thousands. The ship girl of a blueprint ship is itself a product of a kind of "lucky mutation," not to mention the health of the ship girl of a successfully constructed blueprint ship.

As soon as Hindenburg stepped out of the construction device, he sensed the condition of his ship's equipment before anyone else.

—It was a complete mess.

Hindenburg's body was in complete disarray.

If we were to use the technical terms from martial arts novels to describe it, the interior of Hindenburg's shipboard was a scene of utter despair, akin to having all the meridians severed, leaving behind a chaotic void.

Fortunately.

Although the interior of Hindenburg's ship was in a rather dire state, it was not a life-threatening illness.

Compared to the countless other blueprint ship girls who couldn't even form life, Hindenburg was already incredibly lucky.

However, even with such ship equipment, Hindenburg's life would not be threatened.

However, it also had a significant impact on Hindenburg's fighting capacity.

The result of this situation is that no matter how much Hindenburg improves her ship equipment level, no matter how much combat experience she accumulates, no matter how much blood, sweat, and effort she puts in to make up for her inherent disadvantages, to cover up, and to compensate for her shortcomings, she will never be able to perfectly control her ship equipment.

In fact, this is indeed the case.

In the battles against Rome, Hindenburg's inability to perfectly control his ship's equipment, and the fact that he would always reveal some flaws every now and then, allowing Rome to seize the opportunity to launch a sudden counterattack, was vividly demonstrated.

The stronger a ship girl is in combat, the more powerful she is at seizing the enemy's weaknesses and striking them down. It is precisely for this reason that Hindenburg is ultimately separated from these world's top super ship girls by a physiological gap that she can never cross in her lifetime.

Hindenburg certainly knew these things.

Hindenburg never considered giving up.

Life is precious to everyone, but it was especially precious to Hindenburg.

At least in terms of combat.

Hindenburg, who was always fighting against fate, never thought of giving up.

Fin-shaped, finned, and crystalline.

"Swoosh—whoosh—"

Hindenburg's figure flashed across the water's surface, spraying water backward from beneath his feet, creating a powerful propulsion that propelled him nimbly across the water, drawing closer step by step toward Missouri not far away.

Behind Hindenburg, massive ship-mounted gun turrets faced the wind and waves, several thick cannons aimed at Missouri in the distance amidst the gale. The dark muzzles of the cannons emitted wisps of crimson flame, and the cannons precisely and subtly adjusted their direction as Hindenburg ran, firmly locking onto the enemy's figure.

really.

Today is different.

The fierce wind lashed Hindenburg's face, blowing away his white hair to reveal a beautiful face. Hindenburg stared with his golden eyes at the woman on the other side of the sea, who was wearing a tall ship's rigging that looked like a totem. When his gaze fell on her body, his heart pounded like a drum, and his blood boiled.

—After that admiral touched him.

My hands are so light, my feet are so light, my body is so light.

—That admiral must be very powerful.

Even the air he breathed in seemed to have a fresh, sweet taste. The feeling of congestion and decay within the ship's equipment vanished, replaced by a smooth and flexible sensation, as if it were flesh and blood.

—That's really impressive, that admiral is really amazing.

Every cell in my body is screaming, their arms outstretched, greedily embracing the sea breeze like newborn babies, their bodies brimming with power!

Today is different!

I've become stronger!

I've gotten so much stronger!

I'm omnipotent!!

I can win!!

We can win!!!

Hindenburg listened to the drumbeats in her chest, and her golden eyes gradually shone with a dazzling golden light. The gun emplacements behind her creaked and groaned as they charged, turning red and hot as if on fire, becoming increasingly conspicuous.

"Missouri!!!"

Hindenburg shouted with all his might, lifted his ship's rigging, and stomped hard on the water. He shot out like a rocket, and the huge gun turrets spewed out two long tongues of fire as soon as they entered the attack zone, chasing after Missouri with a whoosh.

This shot was distinctly different from the other shots fired by Hindenburg before it.

This shot was even faster, hotter, and cooler.

In a mere instant, long tongues of fire shot out from Hindenburg's gun emplacements, streaking through the air as if teleporting, leaving a long trail of flame before reaching Missouri.

Missouri didn't hesitate when faced with Hindenburg's shell, which seemed to have a speed boost and had no chance of dodging. She quickly turned around on the spot, and the huge white ship equipment behind her adjusted its position to bear the force in the blink of an eye. The wall, which shone with a heavy metallic luster, was dragged like a city wall in front of Hindenburg's shell.

Missouri's ship armor possesses exceptional defensive capabilities, ranking among the best even among battleships. Faced with the enemy's sudden attack, Missouri did not risk taking damage by dodging the enemy's shells. Instead, it chose to conservatively utilize its strongest and thickest ship armor to try its best to withstand the enemy's shelling.

The advantage of doing this is the visible and stable returns.

Missouri's conservative and cautious positioning, along with its extremely high speed, allowed it to always remain in a position where Hindenburg could hardly exert its firepower. In this position, even if Hindenburg were a battleship, a single shot from Hindenburg into the defensive Missouri would only damage a small portion of its rigging and would not cause significant damage.

"Creak—"

However, just as Hindenburg's shells made contact with Missouri's rigging...

Missouri's thick defensive armor, however, seemed to encounter its natural enemy as Hindenburg's flames spewed out, and a large section of it was quickly shattered.

"Ignore defense?"

A hint of surprise flashed in Missouri's eyes. She turned around quickly and tilted her ship's rigging to one side.

A crisp sound of ship ripping rang out.

Hindenburg's barrage continued, and with a series of sharp, resounding shots, one shot shattered a large portion of Missouri's rigging.

Amidst the flying white metal fragments, Missouri was spun several times by the force of the shelling before finally stabilizing itself, dragging half of its black-smoking rigging behind it and retreating a considerable distance.

"Ouch..." Missouri didn't stop. The moment she regained her balance, she dragged half of her ship equipment behind her and ran away quickly to the side.

Boom boom boom————

Three shells flew down and crashed into the water where Missouri had been standing.

Missouri, dodging Hindenburg's attacks, quickly checked the damage to her ship's equipment.

Hindenburg's shot directly destroyed Missouri's ship armor, putting it into a medium-damaged state and greatly affecting its ship armor attributes in the following battles.

However... thankfully it wasn't badly damaged.

Missouri, who was running, let out a breath, then turned her head with a helpless look and glanced at Hindenburg in the distance.

Hindenburg, with two rows of buffs above his head, was aggressively chasing Missouri, but she seemed unaware that her eyes were radiating a dazzling golden light.

"...Skills..."

Missouri looked helpless.

Normal shelling, no matter how hard you try, wouldn't be enough to reduce Missouri, who was in perfect defense, to medium damage in one shot; at most, it would only cause her to lose a little health.

However, Hindenburg's shot was clearly not a "normal" shot.

A cannon shot that can ignore one's own defense value and shatter one's own armor in one shot... can only be explained by the ship girl's skill.

“Ignoring defense…hmm, no, the feel of the projectile is different…is it fixed damage?” Missouri muttered to herself for a moment, roughly determining the nature of Hindenburg’s cannon. “It should be…a shelling with true damage?”

Chapter 1274 Unique

This morning at Hindenburg, during the battle against the newbie naval base, the ship girl's skills were not used even once.

That's why.

Missouri, who had been observing Hindenburg's battles all day, initially had no intention of guarding against Hindenburg's skills.

Looking at his half of the ship's rigging, which was still sparking.

Missouri laughed helplessly.

"I really don't know if Hindenburg just learned this skill... or if she's been hiding it all along. Either way, it's incredibly difficult for Missouri in every sense of the word..." Missouri muttered to herself. "Hmm... but Hindenburg's skill... the damage is really high. The Admiral will probably be happy to have a ship girl with such a powerful skill."

Think so.

Missouri, who had just suffered a terrible loss, found herself unexpectedly happy.

"Missouri!!!"
