Chapter 1749 Rookie Naval Commander's Traditional Skills

Everyone is in the deep sea.

In other words, the Deep Sea Director in this naval base... is not just one.

Or a group?

Under Mutsu's watchful gaze, the Deep Sea Deans, led by Deep Sea Yamato, stormed into the office and swarmed around Shiro, surrounding him completely.

"How did you know I was here, Yamato-neechan?"

"We're all newbie maids at the naval base. We saw Richelieu looking like she'd had some good news when we passed by downstairs, so we went up to ask her. Richelieu told us, 'Little White, you're back!' Then I racked my brains and figured the first thing you'd do when you got back to the naval base would be to come to the Admiral's office to see Lexington, so here we are!"

"Oh, I see... Oh, right, Yamato-neechan, I heard from Lexington that you brought Super Yamato home?"

"Really? She can already recite the maid's handbook backwards! Don't worry, Xiaobai, I will definitely take responsibility for training her into an excellent rookie naval maid!"

"I'm relieved to hear you say that, Yamato-neechan... Oh, and Pachina, it's been over a month since I last saw you. You're already able to go out and work with everyone!"

"...It's out of interest."

"How was Musashi doing at the naval base the other day? Did you miss Yamato while she wasn't around?"

"..."

"And Bismarck and Tirpitz in the deep sea..."

Xiaobai chatted and laughed with Shenhai Yamato with a relaxed expression, and interacted with the Shenhai Deans surrounding her with ease. Her relaxed and cheerful expression did not look like that of an admiral facing a tyrannical Shenhai Dean, but rather like that of a close sister of the same clan.

The Deep Sea Deans surrounding Xiaobai all had different expressions on their faces. Although the Deep Sea Deans, except for Deep Sea Yamato, had a slightly stiff expression, with some of the expressionless traits unique to Deep Sea races, they all seemed to have a pretty good relationship with Xiaobai.

Noticing Mutsu's stunned gaze, Shiro, who was chatting happily with the Deans of the Deep Sea, turned around and gave Mutsu an embarrassed smile.

"Excuse me, Mutsu, let me introduce you. This is Yamato, and the two beside her are Musashi and Super Yamato. This short one is Pachina, the one in green is Bismarck from the Deep Sea, and the one in gold is Tirpitz from the Deep Sea." As Shiro introduced them to Mutsu, the Deep Sea Deans who were called upon nodded slightly to Mutsu in a friendly manner. "They, like Loki just now, are all Deep Sea Deans residing in our naval base."

"They...are all?"

Although he already had some idea of ​​what was going on, when Xiaobai casually mentioned it, Mutsu was still stunned for a few seconds and his head started to buzz.

This reaction is really not Mutsu's fault.

The newbie garrison is too outrageous.

After all, the Deep Sea Commander is a powerful entity that can be considered the ultimate boss of the deep sea. Every time it emerges from the ocean depths, it requires humanity to mobilize a large number of naval bases to launch an expedition to subdue it. It's already quite fortunate for civilian ship girls to see it even once in their lifetime, but now she's met an entire squad in one go in the admiral's office of a newbie naval base, and they're all arm in arm with her new admiral. This is really too much of a shock to Mutsu's worldview.

The combat power of the Deep Sea Dean is much stronger than the overall strength of the high-level garrison. The Deep Sea Deans he saw in the office, even if their combat power was only at the most ordinary level, could easily level this city in a matter of minutes and plunge the surrounding visible land into endless war.

“Yes, they are all Deans of the Deep Sea Academy,” Xiaobai explained to Mutsu.

"This... I thought there was only one before... Putting aside the Abyssal Dean's sense of good and evil... Aren't Abyssal Deans extremely rare deep-sea creatures?" Mutsu stood there for a long time before finally managing to ask Shiro with difficulty, "Admiral... how exactly did you find so many Abyssal Deans?"

"Uh... well..." Xiaobai was stumped by Mutsu's question for a moment. She thought about it deeply for a while, and then answered Mutsu uncertainly, "Actually, I didn't really try to find out where the Deep Sea Dean was... meeting them might be... what you call fate?"

"fate?"

“Hmm. Look.” Shiro nodded, then gently placed her hand on Pachina’s shoulder and said to Mutsu, “For example, Pachina herself left her deep-sea home and came here to find me. I also accidentally discovered Bismarck and Tirpitz of the Deep Sea during a raid on a certain chapter of the sea. As for Yamato, she had been living here even before I became the admiral…”

"When Musashi first appeared, she even disguised herself and kidnapped you, right? She scared Lexington so much that she sent the B25 squadron into the dangerous waters to rescue you." Deep Sea Yamato interjected with a smile to Little White, "I still don't know why Musashi is so obsessed with you."

"I'm not really sure either..." Xiaobai smiled sheepishly.

Xiao Bai and the Deans of the Deep Sea Academy exchanged a smile.

The atmosphere in the admiral's office gradually became lively and harmonious.

"..." Only Mutsu felt like an outsider, out of place in this warm atmosphere.

—What a coincidence…

If what my admiral says is true.

It really was pure luck that I met these Deans of the Deep Sea.

Seeing how the abyssal deans clung to Shiro like they were their own mothers, and the serene and content smile on Shiro's face, Mutsu fell silent.

At last.

For a moment.

Mutsu finally understood.

The fact that the newbie naval base takes in these Abyssal Deans has little to do with the naval base's inclusiveness or the Abyssal Deans' views on good and evil. The reason they appear together at the newbie naval base is probably simply because of the admiral Xiaobai's personal charm and her love for ship farming.

And that's all. She just likes salvaging boats.

Important things should be said twice.

Mutsu looked at the deep-sea deans in front of him with a complicated expression and sighed inwardly.

Ok.

Let's call him the Dean of the Deep-Sea Institute.

Since that's the case, then there's nothing more to be coy about. They're just a few deep-sea deans... The world is so big, it's not uncommon for a few strange things to happen.

As long as he knows that these Deep Sea Deans won't be his enemies, that's enough.

Thinking of this, Mutsu breathed a sigh of relief, feeling somewhat resigned to his fate, and his gaze gradually relaxed.

"Sigh... I've really joined an incredible naval base..." Mutsu murmured softly.

After accepting that there wasn't just one Deep Sea Commander in the newbie naval base, but an entire squad, Mutsu said that her mental resilience had greatly improved, and she felt that nothing in the world could shake her anymore.

"It's finished."

Just then, Yubari and Niizashi, who had been filling out the ship girl registration form, finished writing the last word and handed the fully filled form to Shiro.

"Ah, the female hearth goddess's entry is only missing a few words."

Xiaobai then remembered that she was still filling out a form for the goddess of the hearth. She smiled apologetically at Mutsu, took the registration form handed to her from Yubari and New Jersey, picked up her pen, quickly finished the form, and handed it to Lexington who was standing to the side.

"Yes, I received it." Lexington took the registration form from Xiaobai, glanced at it briefly, and then smiled as he put it back on his desk. "I'll take care of the registration procedures from now on. Next, I'll arrange accommodations for you."

“In New Jersey, she’s Iowa’s sister and Missouri’s older sister, so she can live with us,” Xiaobai said to Lexington.

“I also have a room at the naval base, so there’s no need to assign one,” Yubari said.

"Then we need to consider where this Mutsu-nee will stay." Lexington smiled and looked at Mutsu. "Regarding your accommodations, Mutsu-nee, do you have any personal preferences or suggestions?"

"Me? Uh... I'll obey the organization's arrangements in everything," Mutsu answered instinctively. "I'm open to any conditions."

"I see." Lexington cupped her cheek in one hand and smiled approvingly at Mutsu. "Looks like she's a very hardworking younger sister."

"Thank you for the compliment..."

“Well then. Since Mutsu-neechan said any environment is fine… Yamato.” Lexington called out to Deep Sea Yamato.

"What?" Yamato asked Lexington.

"Could you please take Mutsu to see the apartment building where Koko lives? If Mutsu is okay with it, she can stay there for the time being." Lexington said, bending down to take a bunch of keys from his desk and handing them to Yamato Akami. "Here are the dormitory manager's keys for Koko's apartment building. You can have them."

"Oh, sure." Yamato Akami took the key, blinked, and then led the Akami directors to Mutsu's side. He warmly shoved Mutsu's shoulder and said with a smile, "Welcome to our naval base, newcomer!"

"Ah... um. Nice to meet you."

"Let's set off now! Our destination: the dormitories of the Deep Sea Taihou!"

“Okay… huh?” Mutsu was about to nod when his gaze suddenly froze. “Deep Sea Taihou? Them? Wait, are there any other Deep Sea Directors in the naval base…”

"You can explain anything later! There are hundreds of Abyssal Taihou waiting for us there! Hahaha! Not many newcomers can accept our existence so quickly. The Taihou will definitely welcome you!" Abyssal Yamato said, waving cheerfully at Shiro. "Bye bye, Shiro! I'm taking the newcomer to see a house. See you tonight!"

"Mm." Shiro waved to Yamato.

"Several hundred???" Mutsu's voice cracked slightly.

With a stunned expression, Mutsu was pushed and shoved out of the admiral's office by Yamato and the other deep-sea deans, and then gradually disappeared into the distance with a series of clattering footsteps.

Chapter 1750 Yubari's Friend

"Pfft."

After Mutsu was pushed and shoved out of the office by Akami Yamato and the others, Yubari, who was in the office, couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle as she bent over.

"What are you laughing at, Yubari?" Lexington looked at Yubari with a helpless expression.

"I just suddenly realized that facing the Abyssal Commander head-on has become a traditional skill of our naval base." Yubari covered her mouth to suppress a laugh and said to Shiro and Lexington, "Even Mutsu, who has seen a lot of storms, was scared like this by you guys. The other ship girls' reactions must be even more interesting!"

"Yubari, you really are the kind of person who thrives on chaos..." Lexington sighed, and for some reason, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly. "Alright, alright, now that the registration forms are all filled out and the new Mutsu sister has gone to experience her new house, Yubari, you can all do what you want now. Whether you go back to your own homes for a while or greet the other sisters in the naval bases and say hello and say hello, it's up to you."

"Yes, sir!" Yubari straightened his back and bowed to Lexington.

"Leave your ship girl registration forms to me." Lexington reached out and patted Shiro's head. "Shiro, you just came all the way back from Kyoto. Like before, go home and rest for a day first, and think about work tomorrow. How about that? Jaja went to Bismarck's house to play with Tirpitz this morning. If you go home now, you might still be able to find them."

On the first day that Shiro returns to the naval base, Lexington usually lets Shiro go back to Bismarck's house to rest for the night, pack her luggage and belongings, and then come to the admiral's office to work the next day after she has adjusted herself. This is the tacit understanding between Shiro and her secretary ship, Lexington.

But this time.

When Lexington told Xiaobai to go home and rest, Xiaobai shook his head.

“This is the third time... let’s just forget about it,” Little White said to Lexington.

"Huh? What's wrong?"

"Lexington, you should already know from Hood and the others that I took on a special mission when I was at Ella's place, right?" Little White asked.

"Hmm... I heard it's a special mission shared with you by the admiral of the world's fourth naval base, Admiral Haoding?" Lexington nodded. "If I remember correctly, it's the eighth chapter of the pioneering campaign?"

“Yes… so regarding that mission, I actually took some time before I came back to look at the relevant information, and there are a few points I'd like to discuss with you, Lexington.” Little White tapped his finger and looked at Lexington as he said, “So, can I stay today?”

"..." Lexington paused in stroking Shiro's head, looking at Shiro's serious expression with surprise, then smiled slightly, "...Well, since you've said so, Shiro, of course I'm willing to play along. But Yubari and the others..."

"Don't worry about me, I'm just thinking of taking a stroll around the naval base!" Yubari, afraid of becoming a burden, quickly raised his hand to indicate.

"Me too! I can take New Jersey back with me! Missouri should be home by now, right?" Changchun quickly helped New Jersey up by the arm and excitedly said to Lexington and Xiaobai, "So Admiral, you don't need to worry about us! Please focus on your work!"

Since even the sensible Changchun has said so.

Lexington, of course, had no choice but to comply.

Xiaobai needed to start considering the specifics of navigating Chapter 8 and discuss with Lexington the difficulties that Admiral Haoding had summarized for navigating Chapter 8. So she stayed in the Admiral's office. Changchun, with her petite and charming demeanor, helped New Jersey leave the office, said goodbye to Yubari, and headed back to the ship girl dormitory.

Yubari leisurely greeted everyone, then watched as Shiro and Lexington sat down and began earnestly discussing the documents on their computers. He then quietly left the office, closing the door behind them.

Although Yubari is a ship equipment researcher, she is not an admiral. Her talent points are all focused on how to improve and modify the ship equipment of ship girls. As for conquering cities and territories and becoming the king of the land, Yubari said that she is a complete novice and can't help at all.

If there's anything she can do to help Xiaobai and Lexington, it's simply to leave quietly and not disturb their conversation.

Leaving the admiral's office, Yubari gazed at the closed door and gently stretched.

As Yubari stretched out, her sleeveless shirt lifted slightly, revealing a small section of her fair waist before being covered again by the falling hem.

"Hmm————" Yubari hummed comfortably, swinging his arms as he walked downstairs. "It's been a long time since I've had this much free time. Last time when I returned to the naval base, I was so focused on studying Iowa's ship equipment that I didn't have time to rest. This time, I'll take a good walk around, say hello to some familiar faces, and relax a bit."

Yubari hummed a little tune as he left the office building.

Back in the day, Yubari was the only mechanic in the entire naval base who could fix computers, making her a big celebrity in the newbie naval base. As a result, most of the ship girls in the newbie naval base had a good relationship with her, so she didn't have to worry about being popular.

Yubari hummed a song as he strolled casually through the garden in front of the office building, glancing around every now and then in amazement.

"Speaking of which, the naval base has really undergone a complete transformation in the year since the admiral took office... If the admiral hadn't personally brought me back, I would hardly recognize this place, and there are many unfamiliar ship girls on the road..." Yubari put her hands behind her back, looked at the ship girls passing by in the garden for a while, and revealed a smile of great interest.

When the ship girls that Yubari doesn't recognize notice Yubari's gaze, they often stop in their tracks. Even if they don't know Yubari, they will wave to her with a smile that is either obedient or lively, and then skip away.

"This is so nice..." Yubari sighed, watching the ship girls' retreating figures. "The environment inside the naval base is definitely much better than the ship equipment research center. Compared to our warm and welcoming naval base, the cold and profit-driven human society is nothing but a pile of dog shit..."

Yubari was swearing, but his mood was unusually high, and he couldn't hide the relaxed smile on his lips.

Yubari skipped and hopped through the garden, instinctively heading towards the training grounds of the rookie naval base.

The training grounds in the newbie naval base are often the liveliest place in the entire base.

As soon as Yubari saw the empty sky above the training ground, he heard a series of booming sounds. Agile figures darted across the water like arrows, the red-hot cannons reflected each other, and the bombing of the planes formed a curtain, splashing up dazzling sparks on the water.

"Men! Charge! Let the enemy feel the power of freedom!!"

"Yes!"

"If a heavy cruiser can't even snipe a battleship from the middle, what kind of ship girl is that!"

"Yes!!"

"Yes! We can!"

"Yes!!!"

A series of loud and familiar sounds rose from the horizon, reaching Yubari's ears.
