Xiaobai swallowed hard and quickly asked Kamikaze, "Sister Kamikaze, did you go to find Frederick? Didn't Frederick leave spiritual marks on all of us?"
“Good idea, but Hindenburg and Barbarossa don’t have any of these.” Kamikaze shook his head.
"Ah this..."
"Let me tell you, Hindenburg's disappearance might not be so simple," Kamikaze said in a low voice to Xiaobai when he saw that Xiaobai had nothing to say.
"What's wrong?" Xiaobai looked up.
"Your little servant," Kamikaze said, pointing towards the hall, "hasn't been around you much lately, has she? You told us she seems to be going out for walks all the time?"
"Huh?" Shiro was taken aback, then opened his mouth, "Ah... Kamikaze-neechan, are you doubting Super Yamato?"
“It’s not that I suspect her, it’s that she’s the prime suspect.” Kamikaze frowned and said to Shiro, “If Hindenburg really did encounter some misfortune, I don’t believe that there wasn’t the involvement of other Deep Sea Deans. Your servant hasn’t been by your side lately, always disappearing without a trace. Perhaps he’s secretly plotting something. For example, just now, when you were with Barbarossa, your servant wasn’t here, was he?”
"Impossible!" Xiaobai shook his head decisively. "Super Big and it's impossible for them to do that kind of thing."
“When she’s not around, you can’t be sure what she’s really done,” Kamikaze said to Shiro.
"...While I can't be sure, it definitely wasn't her!" Xiaobai responded, patting his chest as he said, "Super Yamato is on my side. If she really did something, it was definitely at my behest!"
“Good sister—do you know what your words mean…” Kamikaze looked at Shiro with a complicated expression, and finally sighed helplessly, waving his hand, “Alright, alright, since my good sister has said so, then I’ll just pretend she didn’t do anything.”
"Thank you, Sister Shenfeng..." Xiaobai breathed a sigh of relief, her gaze towards Shenfeng softening.
"I'll just pretend she didn't do anything for now," Kamikaze said to Shiro, closing his eyes. "But I won't say a single word for Barbarossa."
"Hmm..." Shiro nodded and said to Kamikaze, "Then, Kamikaze-neechan, do you know where Barbarossa is right now?"
"She's looking for someone in the city. You might just find her while you're wandering around." Kamikaze turned his head to the side.
“…Okay.” Xiaobai nodded, then greeted Shenfeng before walking into the hall.
"Admiral, you're back." In the hall, Chao Daiwa saw Shiro and Kamikaze and quickly put down what he was holding and came over, but his attention was soon drawn to the different expressions on Shiro and Kamikaze's faces. "...Hmm? Admiral, what's wrong?"
"The Super Yamato and the Deep Sea Hindenburg have gone missing," Xiaobai said.
"Hindenburg?!" Chao Yamato's eyes widened instantly.
"Okay. Let's put everything else aside for now and go help look for it," Xiaobai said to Chao Yahe.
"Okay!" Chao Da nodded and followed Xiao Bai's steps.
Xiao Bai and his two companions left the hall and hurried out along the waterway on one side.
"Your gaze is so clear, you've got a clue?" As he walked out of the hall, looking at Xiaobai who seemed to have a clear direction, Shenfeng raised an eyebrow and couldn't help but speak.
"No, they're just searching aimlessly like headless flies." As Xiaobai spoke, she asked Shenfeng, "Sister Shenfeng, if the Deep Sea Hindenburg really fell victim to the other Deep Sea Deans, what benefits would the Deans who did it receive?"
"Hmph—the Deep Sea Dean's body contains a core that concentrates a body full of deep-sea energy, making it a precious item among the deep-sea races. No one else can possess the energy within, but it still contains the aura of a Deep Sea Dean. Using that overflowing aura to train high-combat-power subordinate deep-sea frigates is a time-saving and labor-saving method," Shenfeng said. "However, that's about all the benefits. In the end, that thing is just a little trinket with more commemorative value than practical use."
"Oh……"
"However... among deep-sea creatures, it's common for you to fight me and I to fight you. If they feel like it one day and want to catch you when you're weak, they don't need any reason to stab you," Kamikaze added.
"...So, is it possible that other Deep Sea Deans in the city might also make a move?" Xiaobai asked.
"Hmm." Kamikaze shrugged.
"Huh? Was it done by another Deep Sea Dean?" Super Yamato, who was standing nearby, heard Shiro and Kamikaze's conversation and quickly covered his mouth, looking surprised.
—Yes, they were just suspecting you.
Xiaobai gave a wry smile to Chaoda, then turned to look at Shenfeng again.
"Speaking of which, Kamikaze-neechan, you weren't the one who did it, were you?"
"Hehe, I knew you'd ask that." Kamikaze chuckled. "You could just order me to tell the truth. Given our current situation, I shouldn't be able to lie to you, right?"
"That's true." Xiaobai nodded, but blinked her big eyes and smiled slightly. "I won't ask about it. I trust Sister Shenfeng, just like you trusted me just now."
"Hmph." Kamikaze snorted lightly, a slight smile playing on his lips. "You can rest assured, this has nothing to do with me."
"Ah."
"Who do you think did it?" Kamikaze suddenly asked again.
"Ok?"
"I mean, who do you think might have done it?" Kamikaze asked. "Savoy, Zuikaku of the Deep Sea, Frederick... or even Barbarossa himself?"
“…We haven’t found Hindenburg yet,” Xiaobai said. “Maybe Hindenburg just went out for a walk and no one’s made a move.”
"That would be best," Kamikaze said softly, remaining silent for a long time.
Xiao Bai tilted his head and glanced at Shen Feng, sighing inwardly.
There was no mental mark left by Frederick the Great on Hindenburg, so when Hindenburg disappeared, Frederick the Great could not find her through mental marks. In addition, Hindenburg's ship equipment was damaged, which made her aura as the Dean of the Deep Sea quite weak, making it difficult to find her even using the connection between the Deans of the Deep Sea.
In a sense, it was a rather worrying situation.
Barbarossa must be frantic right now... After all, she was the one who abandoned Hindenburg in the Deep Sea and came to his side. If Hindenburg were to be harmed or meet with misfortune at this time, Barbarossa would definitely feel extremely guilty no matter what the outcome.
but.
fortunately.
Although Hindenburg of the Deep Sea had almost no aura or mental energy markings, this was no problem for Xiaobai. After all, Xiaobai's head now housed a "search master" who could easily find any deep-sea creature in an entire ocean area.
"So, you're really going to search like a headless fly?" After a long silence, Shenfeng asked Xiaobai. "Let me warn you, this city is bigger than you can imagine."
"Hmm..." Xiaobai nodded, then her gaze swept over a tall building. She pointed in the direction of the building and said, "That's taller, let's go there first."
"Over there?" Kamikaze's gaze followed Shiro's finger to a tall building. Then, as if lost in thought, he clapped his hands lightly. "Oh... I get it. My dear sister means that I should find a tall building first, then launch all the carrier-based aircraft and use their search capabilities to find the Deep Sea Hindenburg? This way, I can perfectly utilize my airport's identity, and it's more efficient than the search by a battleship like the Barbarossa, right?"
Chapter 2097 Kamikaze Technology
Kamikaze is a clever ship. After Shiro pointed to the tall building, she made the most reasonable guess that fit the current situation.
indeed.
As a special deep-sea airport, Kamikaze does indeed possess (in her own opinion) the strongest enemy detection ability in the entire deep-sea city. Using her powerful detection ability to find the missing Hindenburg is much more efficient than wandering around the city like a headless fly. This is a very reasonable idea and the best method—if Shiro's body did not have the deep-sea will.
Shiro didn't reply to Kamikaze's question; she just smiled and looked at her.
"...What's wrong? Why are you suddenly not talking?" Kamikaze felt uncomfortable being stared at by Shiro with a smile on her face, so he couldn't help but ask.
"Sister Kamikaze, you seem quite enthusiastic," Shiro said with a smile. "Are you also worried about the Deep Sea Hindenburg?"
"Huh? Me? Hmph—how could that be—" Kamikaze was stunned, then her two willow-leaf-shaped eyebrows drooped. She snorted proudly twice, "What do I care about the lives of the other Deep Sea Deans? It's just that Hindenburg and the others have a special relationship with Frederick. If something really happens to her, who knows what Frederick might do. I just don't want things to get to that point. Besides, I can't disobey your orders right now. I can only do whatever you want me to do."
"Oh, I see." Xiaobai looked at Shenfeng with a smile.
"..." Shenfeng felt a chill run down her spine under Xiaobai's gaze. She turned her head to look at the tall buildings in the distance and rubbed her arms with her hands. "Stop looking at me. Do you still want to find someone?"
"it is good--"
Xiaobai didn't want to expose the existence of the Deep Sea Will. Since Shenfeng had her own ideas, she might as well go along with her.
Xiao Bai and his two companions climbed to the rooftop of a nearby high-rise building. Once on the rooftop, the sea breeze became colder and more biting, and dense dark clouds swirled in the sky. As far as the eye could see, all that could be seen were broken walls and ruins.
Kamikaze summoned the deep-sea airport ship equipment. She raised her slender finger and pointed in the air, and several blue carrier-based aircraft slowly flew out of the airport ship equipment. As if they were being pulled by invisible and delicate threads, they flew to Kamikaze's fingertip, lined up neatly one after another, and hovered in the void.
"As expected of a deep-sea airport, the technology for controlling carrier-based aircraft is truly impressive." Xiaobai looked at the carrier-based aircraft surrounding the Kamikaze and couldn't help but exclaim with a bright smile.
As the saying goes, a master's skill is evident from the first move. Although Kamikaze did not perform any difficult maneuvers with the carrier-based aircraft, Shiro had piloted carrier-based aircraft a few times and knew very well how difficult it was to control them with such precision. Kamikaze's move just now was something that even among novice naval garrisons, not many carrier-based ship girls could do so with such ease.
"You have a good eye." Hearing Xiaobai's sincere praise, Shenfeng seemed to feel much better. She smiled slightly and pointed to the cloudy sky. The neatly arranged carrier-based aircraft then sped away into the sky and disappeared into the clouds in the blink of an eye, their sound vanishing without a trace.
"Shouldn't we summon more carrier-based aircraft?" Shiro asked Kamikaze.
“That’s enough,” Kamikaze replied, adding, “If you want to use carrier-based aircraft to search for enemies, you have to lift them very high, but there are always thick clouds in the sky above the city, which makes it very inconvenient to control the carrier-based aircraft. If you’re not careful, the carrier-based aircraft might collide with each other in the clouds and create sparks.”
"Oh, I see." Little White stroked his chin, looking like he had learned something. "Then I'll fly a few too."
"Hmm? You also have carrier-based aircraft?" Kamikaze became interested upon hearing Shiro's words.
"Didn't I introduce it before?" Xiaobai pursed her lips at Shenfeng and waved her hand. A blue light flashed, and a small blue fire plane, flying crookedly and wobbling, emerged from under Xiaobai's skirt. It hovered precariously in front of everyone, as if it would lose its balance and fall to the ground at any moment.
All eyes were on the blue flame airplane in front of Xiaobai.
The atmosphere on the rooftop froze for a few seconds.
"Hiss—" Kamikaze took a deep breath, his gaze complex. "Are you sure you want to use this to find Hindenburg too?"
"Ah, can't you?"
"Good sister, no offense, but your skills in piloting carrier-based aircraft... seem a bit rusty, don't you?"
"Ahem, I usually prefer firing cannons." Xiaobai blushed. Shenfeng wasn't the first person to say that she wasn't good at controlling carrier-based aircraft, but Xiaobai had really tried her best. When she first got the carrier-based aircraft, she couldn't even take it off. Now that she could barely control it, it was a qualitative leap.
"Fine, go ahead and fly away if you want." Kamikaze shook his head as he looked at Shiro's completely oblivious attitude. "But I just warned you, it's very difficult to control carrier-based aircraft in the clouds. If your carrier-based aircraft flies into my flight path, I'll just smash it to pieces."
"It's alright, I'll be careful." Xiao Bai chuckled, cupped his hands, and the carrier-based aircraft wobbled into the sky.
If Kamikaze is guilty, then punish her, instead of making her watch Shiro's cringe-worthy carrier-based aircraft piloting skills.
Kamikaze, a veteran deep-sea pilot with decades of experience, couldn't even bear to look directly at Shiro's carrier-based aircraft. To avoid further tormenting her eyes, she simply looked away.
Just after Kamikaze looked away.
The wobbly little blue flame plane suddenly jolted, and then, as if it had been piloted by someone else, it spun 360 degrees in mid-air before plunging straight into the thick clouds, creating ripples like water on the surface.
"Hmm?" Kamikaze seemed to sense something and shifted his gaze back to the sky, but there were no more carrier-based aircraft in the sky. Kamikaze frowned and looked for a while, thinking it was just his imagination, and then turned his gaze back to Shiro. "Getting back to the point, I did send out the carrier-based aircraft for you, but even I may not be able to find Hindenburg quickly. You should be prepared."
"Yes, I know." Xiaobai nodded.
Whether Kamikaze can find the Deep Sea Hindenburg or not is of no concern to Xiaobai. In any case, Xiaobai's own carrier-based aircraft has already been dispatched. Xiaobai's carrier-based aircraft is now being controlled by the Deep Sea Will. Finding a Deep Sea Hindenburg is as easy as finding an ink spot on a blank sheet of rice paper for her.
—As for why the Deep Sea Will didn't use the simplest mental scan to find Deep Sea Hindenburg... that's because there are also Deep Sea beings with highly developed mental abilities like Frederick the Great in this city, and Little White didn't want to disturb her. Anyway, for the Deep Sea Will, it doesn't matter how she searches; she's very capable and doesn't care.
really.
Just as Xiaobai and his two companions left the rooftop and stepped down from the high-rise building back onto the waterway, a wave-like sensation spread through Xiaobai's mind. Immediately afterward, a stream of information bloomed like a flower, and a map-like intelligence unfolded in Xiaobai's mind.
Oh wow.
It truly lives up to its reputation as the will of the deep sea.
They found it so quickly.
Xiao Bai first sighed inwardly, then narrowed his eyes and savored the map in his mind. The map showed the general outline of the deep-sea city, with several small dots marked on it. These dots indicated the current locations of the other deep-sea deans in the city, Xiao Bai's own location, and a particularly red dot, which should be the location of the deep-sea Hindenburg.
The map is even animated, with the dots representing the Deep-Sea Deans moving around.
profession.
Xiao Bai couldn't help but sigh inwardly, then carefully examined the map in his mind.
The current location of the Deep Sea Hindenburg... huh?
Xiao Bai was taken aback.
Surprisingly, Hindenburg in the Deep Sea wasn't far from here; she was actually in the ruins of a city in the Deep Sea.
How did she end up there?
Isn't that where Figel is hiding? Uh... could it be that she's discovered Figel?
Xiao Bai's heart skipped a beat at first, but as he continued to analyze the map, he quickly calmed down. The Deep Sea Will had also marked Figel's location on his map. At this moment, Figel was in the deepest part of the ruins area, while the little red dot representing the Deep Sea Hindenburg was stationary on the outer edge of the ruins area.
The Hindenburg in the deep sea probably didn't find Figel.
However, that location is indeed a bit dangerous... We have to get there quickly and check the situation no matter what.
Thinking of this, Xiaobai reopened his eyes. Before him was a wide and long waterway, and beside him were the well-behaved Yamato and the Kamikaze, who was complaining about Xiaobai's carrier-based aircraft control skills.
"Good sister, carrier-based aircraft are far more elegant tools than main guns. I just saw that your carrier-based aircraft is in very good condition, but your handling skills are lacking. However, you still have potential. How about it? Do you want me to give you a few lessons? I can teach you how to use carrier-based aircraft step by step?" Kamikaze said confidently as she walked.
"Well... let's talk about that later. Now we should go..."
"It's never too late to learn carrier-based aircraft, my dear little sister. I'm not this generous to just anyone, so you should cherish this opportunity." Kamikaze smiled and reached out to poke Shiro's lips. "See, you're using your little mouth to order me around, saying you need to teach me all your carrier-based aircraft technology. Then even if I wanted to keep it a secret, I wouldn't be able to. I'll definitely teach you everything, hand in hand, heart to heart, without holding back a single drop..."
Kamikaze seems to have found a brand new breakthrough in winning over a novice, and at this critical juncture, he's been trying to flirt with her.
But Xiaobai wasn't buying it.
"Thank you for your kindness, Kamikaze-neechan..." Shiro gently removed Kamikaze's finger from her lips, then smiled at her, "But now is really not the time, because I have just located Hindenburg's position using carrier-based aircraft."
Chapter 2098 Who in the world doesn't take the blame?
Xiao Bai had barely finished speaking.
Kamikaze froze on the spot.
"Huh?" Shenfeng blinked.
"Let's hurry and pick up Deepsea Hindenburg," Xiaobai said.
