The Naval Base of the Unnamed Ship Girls

“Hmm, Gothic style is quite suitable for Catholicism.” Since Gothic style is the construction method of Catholic churches during the Dark Ages, Nelson offered his opinion.

"But turning an office into a religious setting isn't really appropriate," Charlotte offered her valuable opinion.

"That makes sense..." Especially if it's made to resemble a certain religious style, summoning ship girls with different beliefs later on would backfire.

“Then how about carving a few statues of yourself and placing them inside?” Adun offered a rather good suggestion.

"I'm not dead yet!" Tidu's anger meter exploded, and she unleashed a devastating attack.

"Why not just stick with the deep-sea style?" Rodney, the lead designer, suggested, since it was originally a dark gothic style inspired by the deep sea.

"Wo!" Wo-chan is very satisfied with this decision.

"Hmm, it seems pretty good." So, with everyone's unanimous approval, the architectural style of Port 666 remained the same deep-sea style all the way through.

The title is irrelevant; I quite liked the ending where the fire was extinguished, because that fire lasted too long.

Chapter 119 True Deep Sea Style

"Is this the deep-sea style?" Ti was a little confused as she looked at the dark gothic building that Wo-chan had spent half a day remodeling and added some new things.

"So this is the deep-sea style?" Charlotte asked the head maid for a sketchbook, as if she wanted to record it.

"Something feels off." This is what the remaining ship girls of Naval Base No. 233 wanted to express.

Rather than saying that this dark gothic building took a step closer to the deep-sea style after its interior renovation, it's more accurate to say that wo-chan simply sculpted a bunch of sculptures of herself in various sizes and placed them inside.

The ship girls and admirals who witnessed this scene all felt like they were visiting a Wo-chan statue museum.

"Wo-chan, don't you think there are a lot of tentacles?" Xiao Bei, who didn't seem to have any complaints, asked, pointing to the various tentacles hanging down from the largest statue in the middle.

"Wo!!" Upon hearing Xiao Bei's question, Wo-chan, who had just taken on a part-time job as a stonemason, extended dozens of tentacles from her jellyfish-themed suit and struck a pose exactly like the giant statue.

"Okay, I'm fine now." After counting, Xiao Bei realized that Wo-chan could control even more tentacles, and indicated that she was alright.

"Is this the deep-sea style?" Adun tapped on a life-size statue of Wo-chan next to him and asked curiously after discovering that it was indeed carved from a single piece of stone.

"Wowowo," wo-chan replied affirmatively upon hearing her admiral's question.

"Does everyone in the Abyss have a ship worship mentality?" When Wo-chan said that this was the case in the Abyss Naval Port where she used to work, Ya-dun realized that the Abyss Princess who used to be a ship girl from South Dakota actually had a ship worship mentality.

“Wo?” (Is something wrong?) Wo-chan didn’t understand why Adon’s expression was so conflicted, and asked with a strange tap on her own statue with her tentacles.

“There’s nothing wrong with it. Wait, I’ll go find someone who’s more theoretically professional.” With that, Adun transformed into a series of blue mosaics, and a few seconds later, he reappeared in the same spot, carrying the Nautilus.

"Ugh... I just finished eating. Don't be so direct next time, ugh..." Nautilus said somewhat discontentedly as it knelt down and dry-heaved as soon as Ardon let go.

"Is my short-range warp really that scary?" One or two people are like this, and the only one with relatively high tolerance is the furry kid Guogan.

Remembering this, Adon turned his gaze to the only suitable candidate, Guogan, who put on an embarrassed expression and said:

"Actually, it's nothing, it's about the same as drinking too much antifreeze."

“They do seem to be feeling unwell.” Through Guo Gan’s explanation, Yadun finally understood why these ship girls always looked like they were about to sink after enjoying his short-range warp jump.

Yaton has also drunk the antifreeze from Kogan. If Yaton hadn't been able to shield himself from all his senses, he might have collapsed after drinking that bottle.

Upon hearing the bold description of the Mao-style brat ship girl, almost all the admirals and ship girls present who had experienced the Adun-style warp jump showed a hint of sympathy.

"So, if you need anything in the future, just call me directly, and I'll come as soon as possible. You don't need to be so direct." The Nautilus felt that if it took a few more rides on Adun's teleportation, even if it didn't sink, it would lose all its fun.

“Oh…” Adon neither agreed nor disagreed, but simply replied with an “Oh” to indicate that he understood.

"Alas, I'm out of luck. Why did you summon me from so far away, Admiral?" Nautilus asked sadly, knowing that Adun hadn't taken her words to heart.

"Do you have any research on deep-sea style architecture?" Yaton asked, revealing his purpose.

"Of course, I've been to all sorts of deep-sea ports. Admiral, you've come to the right ship!" The legendary thief, the Nautilus, felt its value at that moment. After a brief boast, the Nautilus glanced at the surrounding dark gothic architecture and said:

"This must have just been made. The design is passable, but it doesn't capture the essence of our deep-sea style. It looks like a copy made by ship girls."

A very professional comment from Nautilus immediately demonstrates what it means to be an expert and know whether someone is good or bad just by looking at their work.

Seeing that everyone's attention was drawn to her, Nautilus, finally feeling a sense of superiority, happily continued, "Although the house design is so-so, like a beginner's, these sculptures do have a lot of the charm of Deep Sea Ship Girls."

Nautilus, who had only spoken halfway before realizing who the sculptures resembled, glanced at wo-chan and then added with a change in tone, "But it's still missing something."

Noticing that the Nautilus wanted to enjoy the attention for a little longer, Ardon gestured with his hand as if it were a rope, which immediately made the Nautilus back down and say, "Wait a minute, I'll show you what real deep-sea style is."

As she spoke, the Nautilus immediately pulled out a bunch of junk-like things from its ship's equipment space, such as barnacles, seaweed, coral, and oddly shaped small stones. It's really hard to understand why a legendary thief, the Deep Sea Princess, would put these things in her bag.

The Nautilus, who had taken these things out, didn't sit idle. She first stuck some barnacles to the pillars and windows, then planted some seaweed here and there, and even threw a few kelp-like seaweeds onto the body and head of the Wo-chan sculpture.

After that, the coral stones and starfish were placed in the Gothic-style building in a very natural way by the Nautilus. Finally, the Nautilus went out and filled a few buckets with water from the fuel tank, poured in some deep-sea scent, and then soaked the room.

After watching Nautilus and finishing all that, I saw that, thanks to the Nautilus's finishing touch, the Gothic architecture, which was originally just very craftsman-like, exuded a very pure deep-sea architectural feel from the inside out.

Feeling like they were back home, Wo-chan and Xiao Bei even took a deep breath... Well... mainly because of the use of that trace of deep-sea energy gathered by the Nautilus with the special power of the Deep Sea Princess.

"Truly worthy of being called the Deep Sea Princess." Even the most professional designer, Nelson, couldn't help but praise her.

Thus, Nautilus was honored to accept her first mission as a ship girl of the human faction's temporary naval base No. 666.

Renovate this port building in a standard deep-sea style!

"Who knows, it might become a resort destination in the future," said Tidu.

Adon's feeling about this was... if the military police really came, would they conduct a thorough background check on Tidu to ensure she wasn't a spy from the Deep Sea?

Chapter 120: The Deep-Sea Princess with Many Troubles

The first port building of the temporary naval base No. 666 is built in the Abyssal style perfectly and authentically (duh, but with two Abyssal ship girls personally involved in its construction, how could it not be authentic?).

But it seems to be too authentic. Combined with the hedgehog-like coastal defense guns that Nelson built based on that classic multi-turret cult, it looks just like the base of some kind of evil gang boss.

He's the kind of ultimate boss who comes back every few episodes to make his presence known.

In response, apart from the few Abyssal ship girls who felt they were the best, and the Abyssal ****-Mao-Mao Yadun, the remaining admirals and ship girls all looked like they couldn't bear to look at them.

Even the usually audacious Tidus was considering putting up some signs in prominent places to establish a good reputation and prevent a random ship girl from passing by and opening fire without warning.

"It's not that complicated. Just have Kogan put all the sickle, hammer, and five-pointed star things she likes in the most conspicuous place." Yadun's suggestion was met with cheers from Kogan.

"Then it won't just be the ship girls who misunderstood that firing their cannons," the Prince of Wales said, adding that even the deep-sea ship girls might join in and bombard the area.

"I believe that at least the nearby Abyssal ship girls wouldn't do that." Given the relationship between the Abyssal Princess South Dakota and her admiral, Adun said very seriously.

“That’s true. Didn’t you see you even managed to win over their commander? As long as the enemy’s deep-sea fleet isn’t completely out of their minds, they probably won’t be fighting a positional war with a hero-class aircraft carrier,” the Prince of Wales said, glancing at wo-chan.

Fighting a heavily protected aircraft carrier in positional warfare means that if you are within the carrier's attack radius, you are very likely to be blown to smithereens.

Especially since it's located within a fortress, it means that an aircraft carrier can double as an airfield. Once there's enough aluminum pipe, it can transform into an airfield princess and wash the surrounding seas clean.

"But why is it that even with one of your colonels captured, the nearby Abyssal Princess hasn't reacted at all?" Nelson asked, voicing a question that had been puzzling him: "Could it be that it was frightened by Lord Adun's performance?"

Before Adun could answer, Nelson, in his imagination, made the ship girls of Naval Base 233 accept this explanation.

Even if I can accept it, it still feels incredible. I've only heard about the intimidation power of the Deep Sea Princess over ship girls, but I never expected to actually see a ship girl who can intimidate the deep sea.

"That's about right." Yaton couldn't say for sure, but the biggest reason was that the nearby Abyssal Princess had an unclear relationship with his admiral. Maybe that Abyssal Princess was just waiting for Tidu to go there and become the Abyssal admiral.

Since they'll all end up in the same pot anyway, there's no need to worry about Wo-chan, who's at the senior colonel level, joining the other party first.

Regarding Ayton's opinion, South Dako, the Deep Sea Princess, said: "I don't really want that child to become a Deep Sea Admiral. The Deep Sea area doesn't get any sun, which is bad for his health."

“After becoming the Admiral of the Deep Sea, you probably won’t need to worry about your health anymore,” Adun said to South Dakota, the Deep Sea Princess, in a secluded little room in a dark gothic building that Rodney had designed according to his own habits.

"The human body can never contain the aura of the deep sea. Those who become admirals of the deep sea never have a good ending." The Deep Sea Princess took out a desk and a chair from her ship equipment space and sat down to say this.

"My admiral should be considered a ship girl now, right?" Seeing that South Dako had already placed some documents on the desk he had pulled out, Adun asked curiously, "What are you doing?"

"Of course I'm working." South Dakota took out a quill pen and started dipping it in ink to approve documents. He continued in a tone that seemed to say, "You didn't even notice?" "Only when Tidu inherits my ship equipment can she be considered a true ship girl."

"Why are you working here?" No matter how good your relationship is with Ti, you are at least on the opposing side, right? What's with the real villainous boss running an office in the enemy's house?

“It’s quieter here, less stressful, and it doesn’t matter to me where I work,” South Dakota said to Adun, gesturing towards the door of the secluded little room.

Following South Dakota's suggestion, a somewhat bewildered Adun reached out and opened the door to the room next to her. She happened to see two unfamiliar deep-sea ship girls passing by in the corridor. Through the window opposite the door, she could see a sperm whale fighting a giant squid in the sea.

As the two deep-sea ship girls looked on with utter bewildered expressions, Adun slammed the door shut. When it opened again, they found themselves in a familiar corridor, bathed in dappled sunlight.

"Is this your ability? Anywhere Door?" After a moment of confusion, Adun finally understood what had just happened and asked.

“I thought you already knew from our first meeting,” South Dakota said without looking up, seemingly unconcerned about revealing his abilities.

"At the time, I thought it was another, more... more scientific method." Adun, who had always thought that the Deep Sea Princess of South Dakota's ability was matter transfer, never expected that the other party's ability was so bizarre.

"The existence of ship girls is itself unscientific, so why try to understand it using scientific methods?" South Dakota, who had just finished reviewing a thick stack of documents, put his quill pen back into the ink bottle and said.

South Dakota had barely finished speaking when the door, which Adun had locked up and deliberately secured, was blasted open with a loud "boom." The black-clad first mate, struggling to squeeze through the narrow doorway, could only stand at the entrance and shout:

"Where are the invading ship girls?"

"..." Yadun glanced at the deep-sea ship girl who was blocked at the door and couldn't come in, then glanced at the corridor behind her that had once again turned into the interior of a real deep-sea building, and spread his hands to South Dakota to indicate that this was her fault.

"This is a terrible thing, I'm sorry to have made you laugh." South Dakota said, resting his chin on his hands. At this moment, the deep-sea first mate, who had just blasted open the door to his boss's office, also noticed Adun, whose style was so different from his own, and immediately said through gritted teeth:

"That despicable ship girl dared to sneak into Lady Suki's office. She couldn't handle a direct confrontation, so she resorted to these tactics... Ugh..."

The threatening words turned into shouts because the floor beneath the deep-sea first mate's feet suddenly turned into a hole, and the unprepared first mate fell in with a thud.

Then, Adun saw the deep-sea ship girl appear between the sperm whale and the giant squid that were fighting.

“A very useful skill…” It’s not that Adon can’t do this, but it’s a bit difficult to do it as calmly as the Deep Sea Princess South Dakota in front of him.

They ended up hosting the enemy's big boss at his own home. All I can say about this unbelievable situation is how fast things are changing.

"It seems your skills are quite useful."

"Actually, there are also significant limitations to its use. If you want to use it for stealth, you need to go there and set the coordinates first." Hearing Adun's words, South Dakota, who had just thrown his first mate out, continued to explain:

"But given my status, it would be better to confront the enemy head-on than to go through all that trouble to infiltrate them."

"That makes sense." After all, she is the Deep Sea Princess. Adon estimated that her special ability would be very useful in South Dakota, especially for visiting Ti, oh right, and punishing her subordinates.

"Do you need me to take you back?" South Dakota noticed that a group of guards had begun to gather outside the office, and asked Ardon in a friendly manner.
