The Naval Base of the Unnamed Ship Girls

"Is your older sister a battleship?" In front of the older sister ship girl, Gogan temporarily put away his simple Russian image and transformed into a well-mannered elementary school student, asking politely.

"Battleship...?" the black-haired, blue-eyed ship girl asked in a somewhat ethereal voice.

"Huh? Isn't your sister a battleship? Or is she an aircraft carrier?" In Guogan's mind, the only ships that could reach the size of the ship girl in front of him were either battleships or aircraft carriers.

"Aircraft... carrier?" The ship girl paused for a moment, seemingly remembering something from the word.

"Sister is an aircraft carrier? Can you show me the carrier-based aircraft? I've always been very curious about the carrier-based aircraft of Sister Aircraft Carrier." The pause in the ship girl's tone made me categorize the older sister in front of me as an aircraft carrier ship girl, and the elementary school student destroyer immediately continued happily.

If the ship girl in front of her were a battleship, Guogan might not have dared to show her mischievous side so quickly (a typical mischievous girl), because those battleship older sisters, regardless of their personality, all treated destroyer ship girls with the attitude of an elder mentor, each one more serious than the last. (There was one exception.)

Aircraft carrier girls, on the other hand, are naturally imbued with maternal instincts, showering their unruly destroyer counterparts with affection. (There is one exception, though.)

However, the ship girl in front of her was different from the two ship girls with very different personalities, both in terms of appearance and design, so she immediately transformed into a furry child.

Seeing that the "aircraft carrier" sister in front of him was still in a daze, Kokang thought that she had not understood and continued: "It's just to see those cute little kids. No matter how Kokang is modified, it can't use carrier-based aircraft. If the aircraft carrier sister is willing, Kokang can repay her with this bottle of rare Red Star fuel vodka. It has aluminum added to it."

After saying that, a full bottle of specially made aluminum-added red star fuel vodka, which reeked of strong alcohol and had a red five-pointed star engraved on it, was handed to the ship girl who looked like an aircraft carrier.

Kokang felt that her choice was excellent. Anything with aluminum added, and any ship girl with aircraft carrier attributes, could not be refused, whether it was a jellyfish, a light carrier, a carrier, or even a carrier-based fighter. This was knowledge that Kokang learned from the "Encyclopedia of Ship Girl Knowledge".

Upon feeling the weight lifted from her hand, Kogan immediately squinted with joy. According to the "Kantai Collection Encyclopedia" about how to ask an aircraft carrier for a toy, it wouldn't be long before a cute and potentially amazing carrier-based aircraft appeared in her hands.

"Водка," the ship girl, holding a bottle of wine and lingering on the red five-pointed star for a while, suddenly uttered a Russian word.

"Huh! Is your sister also a Soviet ship?" The ship girl's words jolted Gogan back to reality from her anticipation of carrier-based aircraft. She looked the aircraft carrier sister in front of her up and down again and asked curiously, "But there are no records of Soviet aircraft carriers. Could it be that your sister is a rare prototype blueprint ship?"

If it weren't for her intense curiosity about the identity of the aircraft carrier woman in front of her, Kogan would have already rushed back to her admiral to report her major discovery.

If getting an aircraft carrier in 3333 is considered pure luck, then getting a rare prototype blueprint ship in 3333 is not considered luck. Only the luckiest person can do that, and that's a fictional lucky person in a novel. In reality, we've never heard of a lucky person who is both a ship girl and an admiral getting a rare prototype blueprint ship in one 3333.

Seeing the expectant look in Kokang's eyes, the tall "aircraft carrier" woman shook her head, put the rare aluminum-filled Red Star fuel vodka back into Kokang's hand, and said, "I am not from that great country."

"Then who is the older sister?" Jiu came back, but didn't see the cute carrier-based aircraft. Guogan felt that the things in the book didn't seem so reliable.

"You said your name is Kokang?" Without directly answering Kokang's question, the older sister lowered her head slightly and looked at the white-haired elementary school student wearing a warm-looking fur cloak, asking in a calm tone.

"Yes!" Kogan nodded firmly, then quickly added, realizing this didn't conform to the rules in the book: "Flagship of the Soviet Pacific Fleet! The seventeenth ship of the Fury-class, Kogan's second counterpart! But since there is no Kogan First ship, you can just call me Kogan. Although Kogan is a counterpart ship, she is very rare."

"Just as I understand it," the older sister ship girl with black hair and blue eyes nodded and said.

Xiao Guogan assumed this was a memory that the prototype blueprint ship originally possessed and didn't question why the older sister's tone was so strange. If she knew that the older sister knew that her story came from something called Wikipedia, her expression wouldn't have been so natural.

"Do you know Irisviel?" The patient wait did not result in the older sister ship girl introducing herself, but instead brought a new question.

"Huh? Who's that? Is she a ship girl too? Why don't I recognize her at all?" Guogan recalled the "Kantai Collection" he had collected, but couldn't find any ship girl with the same name: "Could she also be a blueprint ship?"

"She shouldn't be a ship girl, although...it's strange in essence." The older sister, who had only said half of what she meant, frowned, seemingly struggling with something she couldn't remember.

"What's wrong with my sister?" Kokang asked with great concern.

"It's nothing, I seem to have lost a little memory, but it's nothing serious."

As soon as the older sister ship girl finished speaking, Sherlock's gaze fell on the construction equipment that had been shattered into pieces. Instantly, the reason for the older sister ship girl's memory loss was found by our Sherlock Sherlock.

"Then big sister..." Guogan was a little worried that the big sister might forget her identity, because such a thing was not recorded in the "Kantai Collection Encyclopedia". If such a thing really happened, Guogan would be at a loss.

Unfortunately, before Kogan could ask the question she was most worried about, she saw her admiral return to the construction warehouse like a gust of wind, carrying a hand-cranked telephone with a long cord attached, the other end of which was tucked between her neck and hand.

"You don't believe me? You think you can get away from me just because I'm far away? What! You built a rare ship too? One that hasn't even appeared in the ship girl blueprints? You think I'd believe you? Once you start something, you're bound to do it forever, okay? Don't forget you fired ten consecutive shots in the simulation."

"You little brat, you're asking for a beating, aren't you? Just you wait! Next time I go back to the Governor's Mansion, I'll definitely pass by your house."

"Now you're chickening out, aren't you! ...What, you still don't believe me? You want evidence, right? I'm right here in front of the evidence, so listen carefully!"

After a flurry of words, the admiral, who was also quite the older sister type, handed the microphone to her first ship girl and said, "Let me introduce myself. Consider this my first order to complete. If you do well, you'll get a bonus tonight. Unlimited oil, ammo, steel, and aluminum!"

After saying this, the admiral saw the terrified look on Kogan's face and immediately added, "It's steel from my own private stash! It's not in the public accounts," which calmed Kogan down, who was feeling like he was about to go hungry.

Is this woman out of her mind? The older sister ship girl summoned by 3333 glanced back and forth between the microphone in front of her and the smug-looking admiral.

"Admiral... Seeing that the 'aircraft carrier' didn't react, the Courageous said cautiously to the admiral, 'The older sister may have some memory loss due to the construction device.'"

"What?!" Before the admiral could say anything, another admiral who had also heard Kogan's words burst into astonishing laughter into the microphone.

The laughter seemed to awaken someone; the older sister ship girl, dressed in futuristic ship armor, suddenly stood up straight, crossed her arms over her chest, and said:

"Your Excellency, the support supply mothership—Spear of Adun—is at your service, EnTaoAdun."

"Hahaha, did you hear that? A mothership! I built an aircraft carrier on my very first 3333 build! What, you don't believe me? You think I built it through massive construction? Get lost! Besides my dowry saved up from years of frugality, where would I get so many resources to build large ships? Still don't believe me? Wait a few days and I'll show you!"

Hmm, did I ever say I was an aircraft carrier?

The support supply mothership Spear of Adun looked at the governor, or as she put it, the admiral, with some surprise.

I originally intended to describe it as a support and supply ark, but for some strange reason, it ended up being called a mothership.

The gaze shifted from the admiral, who was deeply engrossed in a certain state, to Kogan, who was completely dumbfounded.

The Spear of Adun suggests that perhaps only this little girl has noticed something amiss.

Is there a support supply mothership? It's not mentioned in the "Kantai Collection". Kogan is feeling a lot of pressure. Should I have a shot of vodka to calm my nerves?

Chapter 4 Two Drunkards

Let's use this more neutral name for now to refer to this bewildered person, because they know their original name was definitely not this, but upon reflection, they can't even recall their own name. It's not that they don't know, but rather that they can't determine which name in their memory truly belongs to them.

For example, names like Long Aotian, Long Batian, or Xia Ying Liuli Wu... these names can easily reach two thousand characters in a single character.

Moreover, the images symbolized by these names were so diametrically opposed that when Ardon realized he might be one of them, another reason to deny it immediately came to mind.

The unexpected time travel and the result of the soul's divergent thinking in the void was a complete confusion of memories, like files piled up on a hard drive but without any folder menu.

Ardon didn't even know if he had lost any precious memories.

Even the matter of time travel was a conclusion that Adun vaguely reached after spending an entire afternoon in deep thought while holding a bowl of aluminum desserts made from ship girls.

He must have transmigrated to this strange yet familiar world. Some thoughts in his mind made him feel that the existence of ship girls in this world was unscientific, but other thoughts made him feel that it was normal. He also had a strange sense of smug satisfaction, as if he was quite pleased to have transmigrated to this world.

Did you notice anything amiss? That's right, although Adun's memories and worldview are incredibly chaotic, he is absolutely certain that his sex chromosomes before he transmigrated were XY, which is commonly known as male.

Unfortunately, after experiencing a time travel, it seemed that this new world had played a cruel joke on Adon. Looking down at his own shapely figure and trying to find where his toes were, Adon sighed deeply.

Along with her, the destroyer girl, Kogan, sighed as well.

As an initial ship, Kogan is very clear about its role, which is to stand guard for the new admiral's naval base. After the arrival of other new ship girls, most of the initial ship girls who are destroyers will take a backseat and go on expeditions.

Even if they're unwilling, there's nothing they can do. Their gun barrels aren't as thick, and their bodies aren't as sturdy. Except for tasks like blasting fish or special infiltration missions, destroyer girls are far less useful than those older women.

Unfortunately, despite all the planning, the first aircraft carrier built by the Admiral using the 3333 basic formula had a memory problem due to the broken construction device, forcing Kogan to continue to stay in the position of secretary ship.

This should have made the ship happy, but for some reason, every time Guogan caught a glimpse of Yadun's perpetually bewildered expression out of the corner of his eye, he couldn't feel happy.

Hey, what elementary school student is dating an aircraft carrier? Even if there were, they'd be general-class or even hero-class destroyers who've been around for ages and whose combat power is practically mystical.

Kogan said that he had only recently inherited the ship equipment and was a complete newbie.

"Let's have a drink to calm our nerves." Feeling a bit gloomy about the future, Guo Gan pulled out a bottle of fuel vodka from his ship's equipment space, raised it, and was about to take a swig.

"Hey, where's the liquor?" Guo Gan stared blankly at his empty palm. Just a second ago, that bottle of ordinary fuel vodka was still in his hand. Was he dreaming, or was there something wrong with his ship's storage space?

"Anything else?" Adun's voice interrupted the brave girl's thoughts. The destroyer girl saw the older sister in front of her dangling a half-empty bottle of fuel vodka.

Why do aircraft carrier ship girls always seem to like eating aluminum? Especially that strange woman named Admiral who brought out a huge bowl full of it.

Even though it tasted worse than potato chips, Yaton snatched the fuel vodka from Kokang's hand, tilted his head back, and took a big gulp.

Real men should drink, even though this kind of fuel vodka is nutritionally useless to me, just like that aluminum dessert.

Do you have any terazosin or phantom crystals here? If not, some energy crystals and high-energy gas would also be fine.

"Alas!"

Seeing Adun's actions, the brave ship girls' eyes lit up as if they had discovered a new continent. In the blink of an eye, a pile of bottles and jars were placed in front of the two ship girls.

Regardless of the color, size, or capacity of these bottles and jars, they all exude a scent unique to the Russians.

"Cheers!" The two ship girls, one large and one small, picked up the two largest bottles, clinked them together, and started chugging.

When the admiral returned to his office after submitting his report to the governor's mansion and completing his duty, he saw two ship girls, one big and one small, sprawled on the sofa in an absolutely ungraceful posture. The scattered fuel and vodka bottles around them made it easy to see what had happened.

Upon witnessing this scene, the admiral paused for a moment, then retreated back into the office without a word. He then pulled a thick, black metal pipe from his inventory, slung it over his shoulder, aimed at the two ship girls in the room, and counted down: 3-2-1.

"boom"

"The ship is sinking!" (For ship girls, this is similar to "Murder!")

"As expected, drinking while working led to trouble, and the admiral gave him a dressing down." Kogan, who was leading the way ahead of Yaton, said, staring at the black-and-gray figure at the head of the group.

That PG shot was about as effective as a tickle for the ship girl; the fact that her face was covered in black ash was simply because the admiral had added something else to the warhead.

Statistically speaking, this Admiral's Wrath did not cause any real damage to Kogan and Aden. Look, there wasn't even a bit of black ash on Aden.

"A very charismatic governor." Ardon realized he hadn't been mistaken; the female governor seemed to have something wrong with her head.

“Call me Admiral, although sometimes Admirals refer to themselves as Captains. Sister Aden, what is a Governor?” Kogan corrected Aden’s mistake.

“It doesn’t make much difference to me. Okay, as you said, I’ll call her Admiral from now on.” Adun felt there was nothing wrong with adapting to local customs, and naturally he hoped that the little destroyer in front of him could also adapt to local customs: “Call me brother from now on, don’t call me sister.”

"Why?" Upon hearing this, Guogan turned around and looked at Yaton very carefully and seriously, finally focusing his gaze on Yaton's chest, and asked curiously.

“I have a feeling you’re thinking about something unhealthy, little girl!” A furrow appeared on Yaton’s forehead.

"Absolutely not, absolutely not," Kokang hurriedly shook his head and said.

"Never mind, just pretend I didn't say anything." Adon lowered his head again and tried to find his toes, then sighed when he found nothing.

“Okay, Sister Yaton.” Guogan chuckled like a little kid.

Chapter 5: The First Generation, the Next Generation, and...

Following Kogan through the winding streets of the naval base into an underground cavern, Adon carefully surveyed the surroundings and asked Kogan, who called himself the secretary ship, "Where are we?"

"This is the shipyard, Sister Adon, didn't you know?" Guo Gan introduced, and then went to what looked like a supply depot, stuffing torpedoes, each about the same size as her, into her ship equipment space.

“A shipyard?” Adun stared at the six waterways in the middle of the underground cavern, the widest of which was no more than five meters, and said speechlessly, “It feels more like a submarine… even if it is a submarine, it is a bit too small.”

"Huh? Doesn't your sister really know?" Kogan, who had stuffed the ammunition full, jumped onto one of the waterways and floated steadily on the surface, asking Yaton curiously.

Taking a small step to avoid the splash from Kokang's entry into the water, Adon, still somewhat bewildered, nodded and said, "I see, I understand."

Memories of what these things meant appeared in Adon's mind as if they had been filtered out. After carefully confirming them, Adon slowly walked down into the sewer and floated on the water like a dragonfly skimming the surface.
