Crossing the azure as a black dragon

"I have a feeling something big is going to happen."

Brushing the snow off his head, Black Dragon hid inside a small, closed shop.

It's 9:20 AM now. If nothing unexpected happens, the transport ship will arrive in the neutral zone at midnight. However, given the dark weather, Flying Dragon is very doubtful that they will set sail.

hum~

Black Flying Dragon picked up the phone and answered the call to an unregistered number.

"Excuse me, is this the Black Flying Dragon?"

A woman's voice came out.

"It's me. And who are you?"

Black Dragon felt the voice was familiar, but couldn't remember who it was.

"My name is Ivyla. It's been a long time since we last met. Are you still in Sakura Empire?"

A girl named Avira asked.

"Ah, sorry, I'm still in Sakura Empire. Is there anything I can help you with?"

Black Flying Dragon remembered that this was the rich young lady she had picked up at sea.

"Yes, recently a lot of sirens have gathered near that research base at sea. I feel they may want to use that base to do bad things."

Avira gave the report in a low voice.

"Research base, is that right? I see. I'll go take a look when I have time. But where did you get this number, Ivy?"

Black Dragon frowned. What was the Sirens planning to do at the research institute?

"Hehe, my Akashi found it after hacking into the Freeport's database and accessing the call logs."

Avira answered as if showing off.

"...Really?"

Black Dragon was somewhat surprised. She had seen several of Avira's ship girls before, and they were indeed different from other ship girls, but this was too outrageous!

"Of course it's true. Oh, right, she recently built some really powerful ship equipment. It's really amazing. Black Dragon, do you want to come and take a look?"

Avira casually extended the invitation.

"Uh, let's go in a few days, when the weather gets better."

"

Black Dragon did not give an immediate answer.

"Okay, you're welcome anytime!"

Avira hung up the phone.

Is the difference between Akashi and Akashi really that big?

After saving the number, Black Flying Dragon felt a bit of a toothache.

Or is it because Avira herself is unreliable that all the ship girls she creates are so powerful?

Before I could even put my phone down, another call came in, also from an unregistered number.

"who is it?"

Black Flying Dragon asked.

"Kaga".

A cold voice rang out.

"Let Tiancheng answer the phone."

Black Flying Dragon frowned; she didn't want to communicate with Amagi through the First Carrier Division.

After a brief silence, a voice came from the other end: "The intelligence was flawed."

It was Amagi's voice.

"Approximately how much difference?"

"They may have already reached the neutral zone."

Amagi answered.

"...Okay, I'll leave right away. Do you have any distinguishing features?"

Black Flying Dragon glanced at the time; it was just past 9:30, so the error was indeed quite large.

"Without ship girl escorts."

"Yes, please be careful too."

Black Flying Dragon responded and hung up the phone.

Instead of rushing out to sea, Black Flying Dragon turned and headed towards the shrine. Since she had set off ahead of schedule, she needed to make sure the people here were on guard.

This sudden incident is strange; it's very likely that the Sirens are trying to lure her away from here.

Thinking of this, Black Flying Dragon's lips curled up slightly.

Chapter Seventy-Two: A Terrifying Figure

Black Flying Dragon wasn't in a hurry. She first explained the situation to Nagato, hoping he would be on guard, and then found Azure Dragon. The two of them went to the living room of the Amagi family.

The sea is vast, and given the weather, finding a transport ship at sea would be extremely difficult, so she decided to use satellite positioning first, and then chase after it herself.

"But if the Sirens are really protecting it, the satellite might not be able to find the ship."

Canglong controlled the positioning to begin searching along the neutral zone, and various data from the tablet were reflected on the glasses.

"That's true, but the ship can definitely be found, and it's still within Sakura Empire territory."

Black Dragon was certain this was a trap set for her. With Shinano gone, once they got rid of her, everything would be back under the control of the pro-war Sirens.

The four planned ships of Sakura Empire are still too weak at this stage and are not enough to support the current situation.

"what?"

As soon as Black Dragon finished speaking, Azure Dragon made a discovery: a medium-sized transport ship was moving alone on the sea, with no ship girls or sirens around.

"Let's set this ship as the target for now and search the area. I'm leaving now. Let me know if you find anything new."

Black Dragon looked at the transport ship on the main screen, memorized its approximate location, and then turned and left the mansion.

Azure Dragon glanced sideways as Black Flying Dragon left, then focused his gaze back on the control panel.

Leaving the warm room, Black Dragon was once again attacked by wind and snow. In this kind of weather, the sky was gray and gloomy, enough to dampen any worker's desire to go to work.

The weather remained the same, but the island changed. A large number of lights came on, illuminating not only the island but also the distant sea. Numerous ship girls began patrolling the port area, and teams kept leaving the island to join the patrol.

"A port area at sea...it would be great if it had a large protective shield."

Black Flying Dragon's gaze swept across the first floor as he pondered to himself.

If every port area had a protective shield, the level of security would be greatly improved.

Soon, she arrived at the stepped platform and then went to the first-floor plaza, where many ship girls were shoveling snow and clearing open space. Her arrival quickly attracted the attention of others.

"Senior Flying Dragon, are you about to depart?"

The first to arrive was Ibuki, who asked the black dragon a question, her expression seemingly a little nervous.

"Ah."

Black Flying Dragon responded, his gaze sweeping over the other three, who seemed to be waiting for him.

"Please be careful with it."

My wife and Beifeng stood not far away without moving, waiting for the Black Flying Dragon to walk up to them before speaking.

"Don't worry, I'll be right back once the problem is solved. However, while I'm fighting, we might be attacked here. If that happens, you must be vigilant about the Sirens. There are many variants of Sirens that you've never seen before."

Black Flying Dragon stopped and gave a word of advice.

"Understood. If the Sirens dare to come, we will wipe them all out."

The Izumo beside it exuded a powerful aura that inspired awe.

All things considered, she is definitely the strongest of the four.

"Okay, I'm off."

Black Flying Dragon chuckled and stepped past the four people.

Soon, the black dragon arrived at the seaside and left the port area by wading through the water.

"Is it really okay to let the senior go alone?"

Ibuki arrived at the beach and watched the black dragon's back.

"Don't worry, this senior is the strongest ship girl I've ever seen. There's no reason for her to be defeated by the Sirens."

Izumo put his hand on Ibuki's shoulder and said.

"hope so."

Ibuki responded.

……

The snowstorm on Sakura Island was severe, but the weather improved after moving a distance, allowing Black Dragon to launch several reconnaissance aircraft.

The machine went out.

"The ship's location."

Facing the wind, Black Dragon held a simulation map in his hand and communicated with Azure Dragon through a communicator.

"The target is located 420 nautical miles to your northwest. So far, only this one ship has been detected."

The voice of the Azure Dragon rang out.

"Understood. Let me know if there are any developments in the port area."
