It's time to give out the rings, Admiral!

"call……"

Volume 1, Chapter 529: Strange Creatures

"call……"

The girl let out a long sigh. In front of Sister Peter, she always felt a faint pressure for some reason. Perhaps it was because Sister Peter's aura was too strong, or perhaps it was because of the other's queen-like temperament and appearance. But it wasn't until she had almost turned the parasol in her hand into a kaleidoscope that the girl suddenly realized in exasperation what was giving her such great pressure.

What?! It's not because of any of that stuff, it's all because of those towering mountain ranges! Perseus was already big enough when we just saw her, but right after seeing Miss Perseus, we met Sister Peter, and Sister Peter's are even more outrageous. They look like two watermelons stuffed into her clothes. That's not the size a normal ship girl should have at all!

The worst part is that, at least Miss Perseus isn't much taller than me, so I can look her in the eye. But Sister Peter, being an aircraft carrier, not only has such a great figure, but she's also very tall! With my destroyer height, I barely reach above Sister Peter's chest, just up to her neck. Just thinking about having to look directly at those... cough humph, mountains that ladies would disdain when talking to Sister Peter, how could I not feel pressured!

Then she thought about how the admiral seemed to like big breasts, and touched her own chest, which had gone from being somewhat large to being rather barren and then to being completely unremarkable in comparison. The girl, who had been in a good mood, suddenly became even more furious.

"This is infuriating! Can't this world even give us destroyers a break?!"

She couldn't help but stomp her foot and complain loudly, but before long, her momentum dissipated and she became listless.

What could she do if her own heart was not up to par? She couldn't possibly blame Sister Peter for this, could she? Although Sister Peter, as a German ship, was an enemy of the Royal Navy in her previous life, that was all in the past. Back then, they were both powerless to change their fate. Moreover, in her previous life, Sister Peter was just an unfinished ship.

Now we're all sisters in the same port, family working together for the Admiral and for the future of the port. Of course, we need to put aside our past grievances and work together. Haven't you seen how Lexington, Akagi, and even Shoukaku have become best friends? Even the port's biggest rivals, Hood and Bismarck, have become good friends! Although these two rivals still see each other as annoying.

"Ah... let's go to Sister Yixian's place and have some dessert to replenish the sugar we just lost."

The girl lifted her skirt, deciding to change her mood. Although her principal was dwindling in the increasingly inflated port, the admiral didn't necessarily have to be big. Little Fei wasn't any bigger than her, but according to Atlanta and the others, she still managed to get the ring from the admiral through some underhanded means.

Thinking this way, her mood immediately improved, and the girl walked towards the restaurant with light steps. She didn't encounter any other sisters along the way, but before she reached the restaurant, she saw Sister Yixian, who should have been in the restaurant, and Sister Chongqing, who was wearing a ruqun (a type of traditional Chinese dress), standing in front of the warehouse where resources and blueprints and other valuable items were stored, talking about something.

"Sister Yixian, what are you doing here?"

Wasn't Sister Yixian making glutinous rice cakes at the restaurant before? How come she's suddenly here?

The gentle and virtuous Yixian was still dressed in a beautiful cheongsam full of oriental beauty. The girl asked a question and walked curiously towards Yixian and the others. When she came to Yixian's side, who seemed to be observing something, she found that Chongqing was holding a small wooden stick and poking at a strange creature on the ground that looked like a little yellow chick and another that looked like a white ball with four legs and a horn.

"Manjuu! manjuu!"

"Galo! Galo!"

These two strange creatures made strange noises, seemingly hurt by the wooden stick in Chongqing Sister's hand. Seeing their somewhat human-like expressions, Bafler looked at Yixian Sister beside him with some surprise.

"Sister Yixian, what are these creatures? I've never seen such strange things in the port area before."

"I don't know either. This is the first time I've ever seen such strange creatures. I saw them hiding in the warehouse when I first arrived. It's as if they suddenly appeared here."

Yi Xian shook her head in confusion. Clearly, these strange little things had brought her a lot of trouble. She had never seen these strange creatures in the port before. She had just come to the warehouse to prepare the resources she would need when she suddenly discovered these two strange creatures hiding in a corner of the warehouse. While her sisters had gone out to look for the admiral, she had stayed in the port for more than a year, but she had never seen these strange things in all that time. Now that she had suddenly discovered them, it was as if they had really appeared out of nowhere.

　Fortunately, it seems that these two strange creatures, although they don't look like any existing biological groups, are not threatening for the time being. They didn't seem to resist after being poked by Chongqing for a long time. I just don't know if they will have any harmful effects on the human body. Otherwise, I would have to deal with these two creatures before the admiral returns.

"Manjuu!"

"Galo!"

"Sister Yixian, these two things don't seem threatening to me. Why don't we leave them here for now and find out what they are? If they're just ordinary little animals, I think they would make good pets for the Admiral?"

After poking at the two strange creatures' bellies, which looked like marshmallows, Chongqing dropped the stick in her hand, patted her skirt, and stood up. The two strange creatures were not aggressive, at least judging from their round bodies.

Moreover, they seem to be somewhat human-like. When Wisconsin said they were going to get rid of them, they even showed a very human-like expression of fear. If these creatures are not a threat, they would be perfect as pets for the admiral. I guess the admiral would also like such round little animals.

"Hmm... but it's a bit too early to say that now. Let's confirm first that they are really harmless to the Admiral. We know nothing about the habits of these two little things."

Volume 1, Chapter 530: Pets

"Hmm... but it's a bit too early to say that now. Let's confirm first that they are really harmless to the Admiral. We know nothing about the habits of these two little things."

With Lexington absent, Yixian, as the eldest sister in charge, remained cautious. Although she wasn't a professional biologist, based on the knowledge a normal person should have, she could tell that these two little creatures were definitely not existing, known organisms. Just look at their round, doll-like bodies; it was already quite absurd that they could escape the sanction of natural laws and survive under natural selection.

Moreover, we don't know how long they've been in the port area. If they become some kind of invasive species and destroy the original ecosystem of the port area, that would be terrible.

"Really? But Sister Yixian, are they really harmful because of their appearance? It seems that even Sister Haiqi's Xue'er and Miss Perseus's owl look stronger than them, right, little guys? Do you eat candy?"

Her long golden hair shimmered in the sunlight. Pavler slowly squatted down, holding a parasol. She had been observing the two little creatures for quite a while, but compared to Yixian's caution, she found it even harder to believe that these two little creatures, who looked like this, could be harmful.

Just like Chongqing Sister said, these two little creatures are indeed quite cute. If they were really kept as pets, the Admiral might really like them.

“You can’t tell just by looking at them, be careful, Pavler.”

"Don't worry, Sister Yixian, I just wanted to see if they would eat candy."

As he spoke, Pavler took out two candies from Yangqun's pocket, which he had prepared to use against the fireflies on certain special occasions. The candies were still wrapped in paper, and the little yellow chick and the mysterious white ball-like creature exchanged a knowing glance before taking the exquisitely wrapped candies from the girl's hands, one after the other.

"Manjuu!"

"Galo!"

The girl just wanted to test their diet, but surprisingly, despite the two strange creatures looking rather silly and not very smart, they skillfully peeled off the wrappers and put the candy in their mouths after taking it from the girl's hand.

Perhaps it was the sweetness of the candy that made them so happy after eating the candy given to them by Baffler. After finishing the candy, they gradually became bolder and seemed not to have had enough. They approached Baffler and circled around the girl's legs.

"Hmm, they can even eat candy. They do have a certain level of rationality and thinking ability."

"Oh? Wisconsin Sister? When did you arrive?"

Before the girl could even be surprised, she suddenly heard an unexpectedly melodious voice. She looked up and saw Wisconsin Sister, who seemed to have appeared out of nowhere, standing with her arms crossed, carefully observing the little yellow chick and white ball in front of her.

"I've been here the whole time, I was just checking the supplies in the warehouse."

Wisconsin reached out, lifted the little yellow chick by the back of its head, and watched the unidentified creature, which resembled a little yellow chick, wriggle restlessly in her hand. After pondering for a moment, Wisconsin thoughtfully spoke to Yixian and Buffler.

"Well, judging from their animal form, they shouldn't pose any threat. I haven't seen any glands that could produce venom, so they seem fine from the outside. However, if we really want to be sure they're okay, it's best to dissect them first. Yixian, can you give them to me temporarily? Let me check if they're harmful or not."

After saying that, Wisconsin Sister casually put the little yellow chick on the ground. The little yellow chick rolled its round body on the ground a couple of times. Perhaps it understood what Wisconsin Sister meant before it was thrown on the ground. The frightened little yellow chick immediately squeezed together with another white ball and cried out in panic.

"Man, manjuu!!!"

"Galo!! Galo!!"

"Hmm? Okay, Wisconsin, then you can handle them. Just make sure they don't disrupt everyone's daily lives."

Standing next to Chongqing, Yixian nodded serenely and elegantly. Since Lexington left, most of the daily affairs of the port area had fallen on her shoulders. Although Missouri and Wisconsin had helped, it was obviously not something that could be easily handled. She was already almost too busy to keep up, and now she had to deal with these two unknown creatures of unknown origin. Since Wisconsin offered to help, she was naturally happy to hand them over to her.

"Did you hear that? From now on, you belong to me. If you dare disobey me, hmph..."

"Ga, Galo!!!"

"Manjuu!!!"

Hearing Wisconsin Sister's voice, which sounded like that of a great demon, the little yellow chick and the white ball of fur, who had no power to resist in Wisconsin Sister's hands, huddled together and trembled.

Finding herself quite fond of these two mysterious creatures that resembled dolls, Baffler picked up the little yellow chick in front of her as if it were a rag doll, poking its soft, cotton-candy-like body, and the girl began to speak with a grin.

"Alright, as long as you behave well, you can stay here as pets. Don't be fooled by Wisconsin Sister's scary appearance; she's actually very gentle. She's just trying to scare you. Hmm, since that's what you call, we'll call you Manju. And you big white dumpling... well... we'll call you Galo. But where did you come from? The port area is surrounded by the sea, and you don't look like you can swim."

"Manjuu, manjuu."

"galo, galo."

"Hmm? So... you don't know either? You just suddenly appeared here? Hmm? What kind of strange phenomenon is this?"

The girl was somewhat surprised, watching the two little creatures constantly gesturing. It seemed that they themselves didn't know where they came from, as if they had discovered they were on this island from the very beginning.

"Oh? That's interesting. We need to investigate where these two little things came from. It's already interesting enough that they can understand human language, but I didn't expect them to appear so suddenly, not even knowing how they got to the island. Heh heh... interesting, very interesting..."

Volume 1, Chapter 531: So sleepy...

"Hoo hoo... Interesting, very interesting..."

Wisconsin stroked his chin, revealing a meaningful expression. The fact that two unknown creatures from who-knows-where possessed a certain level of intelligence was indeed a very intriguing topic. Judging from their ability to understand Buffler's words, their intelligence might even have reached the level of human children. It made one increasingly curious to dissect them and see their internal structure.

"Hmm? Wisconsin, have you found anything?"

The girl piled the Manju and Galo together and kept poking their bellies with her fingers. Their soft, bouncy bodies were like natural cushions, making them irresistible.

The girl squatting on the ground asked curiously. Hearing Wisconsin's meaningful chuckle, she turned her head and looked at Wisconsin, who had such a beautiful face. She placed her pretty parasol on the ground and lifted her long skirt. The girl squinted her eyes.

"Of course, putting aside where these two little things came from, their intelligence alone is already very suspicious. Moreover, Pavler, feel them carefully; their physical strength is not much worse than ours. Obviously, they cannot be life forms born normally."

"Manjuuuu!!!"

Wisconsin crossed her arms, as if to demonstrate, and lifted Manjuu right in front of Baffler. She grabbed Manjuu's head with one hand and its leg with the other, using the strength of a ship girl to pull hard. But even after stretching Manjuu's body like a rubber band until it let out a painful scream, the scene of flesh flying and blood splattering that she had imagined did not occur.

"what?"

The girl was a little surprised. After hearing what Sister Wisconsin said, she also realized that something was wrong. Let alone ordinary small animals, even if she herself were pulled apart and pulled like that by Sister Wisconsin, she would not be completely unharmed. As for Manju, after being pulled by Sister Wisconsin, apart from initially becoming very long and seemingly in pain, as soon as Sister Wisconsin let go, it immediately huddled with Galo and trembled as if nothing had happened.

"Wisconsin sister, you mean... these two little guys were sent from the deep sea?"

"That's a possibility."

"That would be terrible, Sister Yixian, we'd better get rid of them quickly."

Hearing Wisconsin's words, Chongqing also became a little nervous. Now, whenever she heard the word "Deep Sea," she couldn't help but get nervous. What if these two little things really were sent by Deep Sea? There was no guarantee that they wouldn't hurt the Admiral again and cause him to disappear before their eyes once more.

Let alone the cautious people of Chongqing, the poor girls of the Su family were practically suffering from an allergic reaction to the admiral's disappearance. As soon as they heard any rumors or anything that might cause problems for the admiral, they would immediately become extremely vigilant and even apprehensive.

Yi Xian frowned and nodded in agreement with Chongqing's point of view. No matter how cute and deceptive they looked, they absolutely could not be left in the port area just because their safety could not be determined.

"Just like Chongqing said, Wisconsin should deal with them as soon as possible, in case they really are deep-sea..."

"Hmm... Don't worry, Yixian. It's not confirmed yet. Anyway, the Admiral won't be back for a while, so just leave them to me. Maybe I can train them and make them work for us?"

Wisconsin thought about it for a moment and felt there was no need to worry so much. Anyway, the admiral wasn't home right now. Besides, although they might not be naturally born, they didn't seem to have any bad intentions. With a little training, they could not only be pets for some naughty guy, but they might also be used for "hard labor".

“But…” Yi Xian was still a little hesitant, but after glancing at Wisconsin’s confident face, she felt she could trust her. “Alright then, Wisconsin, I’ll leave them to you. If there’s anything wrong with them, make sure they leave before the Admiral returns.”

"Of course, I know without being told that if they really pose a danger to the Admiral, I will definitely eliminate them immediately. Hmm, you two agree, right?"

"Man...manjuu!!..."

"G, Galo!"

"Huh... Hmm? Didn't you say there would be glutinous rice cakes to eat... Sister Yixian, what are you all doing here?"

They had temporarily agreed on how to deal with the two little guys. Once again, they were so frightened by Wisconsin that they huddled together and trembled. Behind the girls, another girl with long silver hair came out of the dormitory building not far away, carrying a cute cartoon pillow.

Her petite and charming figure was dressed in a loose white nightgown, with sheer white stockings covering her long legs, and white rabbit-patterned slippers on her feet. Her beautiful face looked like she had just woken up but wasn't fully awake yet, still full of sleepiness. This pretty girl walked towards Yixian and the others while yawning.

"You wicked thing, you're still not up? It's already past nine, almost ten o'clock, and everyone has already finished the first round of training."

"Whew... It's only a little past nine o'clock, it's still morning..."

The white-haired girl yawned again, and it seemed as if tears were welling up in the corners of her eyes. Two white buns made of her hair were tied up on her head. The languid girl responded to Pavler's voice.

"What morning? It's almost noon!"

"Phew... It's because you're so energetic, Pavler. Anyway, the Admiral hasn't come back yet... Ah... I'm so sleepy... I want to roll around in bed... Sister Yixian, when can we eat the glutinous rice cake? If it's not ready yet, I'll go back and sleep for a while longer."

"Heh, Vicious really loves to sleep in, just like the Admiral... Ah! Admiral, you're back?"

"Ugh... Admiral! Destroyer, the vicious destroyer! Ready to serve at any time! ... What? Sister Chongqing, you lied to me again."

Upon hearing Chongqing suddenly say that the admiral had returned, the girl, who had been quite sleepy, immediately woke up. She blinked her bright blue eyes, but looking around, she couldn't find any trace of the admiral she had never met. Realizing that she had been tricked by the wicked Chongqing sister again, the girl immediately pouted in dissatisfaction.

"Hehe, I'm sorry, but seeing how sleepy you are, I couldn't resist teasing you a little."

"Ugh...you're all bullying me! I'm going back to sleep, and I'm not getting up again today!"

"Hehe, the glutinous rice cake is ready, but we'll have to wait a while before we can eat it. We'll wait until Missouri finishes taking stock of the resources in the warehouse, completes the next task, and everyone else arrives. So you'll have to wait a little longer, you wicked one."

"Ugh... Since Sister Yixian has said so, I'll wait a little longer... Ah... So sleepy..."

"Seriously, you love to sleep too much, you're wicked. If you do that, you'll definitely have a lot in common with the Admiral. He loves to sleep in just as much as you do."

The girl couldn't help but yawn again. Looking at the wicked man's sleepy face, Pavler shook his head helplessly.

Volume 1, Chapter 532: Research and Development Completed

"Seriously, you love to sleep too much, you're wicked. If you do that, you'll definitely have a lot in common with the Admiral. He loves to sleep in just as much as you do."

Pavler shook her head helplessly. Looking at the wicked man's drowsy appearance, she herself felt a little sleepy. She gently shook the parasol, covered her mouth with her hand, and let out a barely perceptible yawn. A fine English lady would not allow such an unladylike appearance to be exposed to others.

"Really?... That's great! When the Admiral comes back, I'll sleep with him, hehe... Ugh... Zzzzz"

Upon hearing Baffler's words, the silver-haired girl perked up for once, hugging her pillow and shaking her head slightly. But as soon as she finished speaking, she seemed to revert to her original state, becoming sleepy again and yawning incessantly.

"Oh my god, you're so mean! Don't fall asleep standing up!"
