"Hehehe. My dear little sister, now you're officially our boss!" Kamikaze arrived beside Shiro like the wind, whispering teasingly in her ear, "From now on, we need to get along well. I sometimes make mistakes, so please be gentle when you punish me, okay?"
"..."
"Great promotion! Congratulations!" Savoy said, trying not to laugh, and joined in.
"Congratulations." Barbarossa reached out his hand, wanting to shake hands with Little White.
Barbarossa's face showed no anger at being replaced by the young upstart; instead, there was only boundless calm, even a sense of resignation and acceptance of the situation.
Little White opened and closed his mouth repeatedly, like a mute, wanting to say a lot, but for a moment he couldn't say anything. In the end, he could only give a somewhat dejected bitter smile and reach out to shake hands with Miss Barbarossa.
"Thanks……"
Xiaobai's gaze passed through Barbarossa and landed on the Deep Sea Zuikaku behind him.
Frederick the Great's mental suppression was not something an ordinary ship could withstand. Even the Deep Sea Zuikaku felt as if its throat and limbs were being tightly gripped by a hand when it was first suppressed, rendering it unable to move.
Sensing Xiaobai's concerned gaze, Shenhai Zuikaku raised its head and met Xiaobai's eyes apologetically.
Beneath his sweat-drenched hair, Fukami Zuikaku's eyes held a complex mix of emotions.
That feeling.
It's like saying to a newbie, "Sorry, I'm too weak."
Chapter 2126 Little White's Punishment?
Seeing the look in the eyes of the Deep Sea Zuikaku, what could Xiaobai possibly blame her for?
There was nothing Xiaobai could do; he hadn't expected Frederick the Great to cheat and force Barbarossa's job onto him.
There really is hers.
Surrounded by the crowd, Xiaobai composed herself, sighed helplessly to herself, and then put on a relieved smile. She walked up to Shenhai Zuikaku and extended her hand to her: "Miss Shenhai Zuikaku, it's alright. Thank you for what you just said."
"..." Shenhai Zuihe raised his eyebrows, hesitated as he looked at the small white hand that Xiaobai offered, and then slowly reached out and held Xiaobai's hand together.
As their skin touched, Xiaobai channeled a wisp of spiritual energy into the body of Shenhai Ruihe through her palm.
As Xiaobai's spiritual power dissipated, Shenhai Ruihe felt a warm current spread from his arms to his whole body in an instant. The coldness caused by Frederick the Great's spiritual power suppression just now dissipated like melting snow, and his still somewhat stiff limbs returned to normal in an instant.
Xiaobai pulled Shenhai Ruihe up and smiled slightly at her.
"The meeting is over, let's go back."
After leaving the tower, the group returned to Xiaobai's residence amidst the lively chatter of the Deep Sea Deans.
"I'm back!" Hindenburg was the first to jump through the door, waving his arms and running around the hall excitedly.
"Hindenburg, don't move so violently. Your injuries haven't healed yet, and they'll reopen," Xiaobai hurriedly called out to Hindenburg.
"It's alright, Admiral! It doesn't hurt at all!"
"It's not about whether it hurts or not..." Xiaobai smiled awkwardly, and was about to speak when suddenly her body tensed up and she shuddered.
"From now on, my dear little sister, you're the second highest-ranking official in this city. You'll have to protect your big sister from now on." Two soft arms wrapped around Xiaobai's shoulders like snakes. Shenfeng licked her lips and whispered in Xiaobai's ear, her seductive charm overflowing. "Of course, I won't treat you unfairly. As payment for protecting me, if you want any protection money, I'll give it all to you without hesitation~"
Snapped!
A loud slapping sound came from behind Kamikaze.
"Eek!" Shenfeng, who was tempting Xiaobai, suddenly blushed and let out a sweet moan. Then, she glared at him angrily and asked, "What are you doing!"
Savoy lowered his head, seemingly unaffected, and played with his shiny fingernails.
"Savoy!!" Kamikaze was even angrier when he saw Savoy standing by uninvolved.
"Huh? What?" Savoy asked, looking puzzled.
Why did you spank me?!
"Oh?"
"What do you mean 'oh'?! You were the closest to me just now!"
"Tsk." Savoy looked at him with disdain, as if he'd been caught. "Oh. You mean patting your butt? Who told you to stick it out in broad daylight?"
"Hiss—I love sticking my butt out like this..."
"That's enough. You've never succeeded even once, so why are you pretending to be a seasoned lover in front of us?" Savoy shook his hand, then gave the red-faced Kamikaze a wicked smile, pausing to say each word clearly, "You bitch, virgin."
Savoy and Kamikaze were already deep-sea deans with a history of grudges. Although Xiaobai didn't know much about what had happened between them, he could piece together from the bits and pieces that Savoy and Kamikaze had told him before that Kamikaze had attacked Savoy when she joined the deep-sea city. Unfortunately, Savoy saw through his scheme, and the two ended up having a fierce fight. Their relationship had deteriorated ever since, and they would always exchange sarcastic remarks whenever they met. It was understandable that they would occasionally say something harsh.
But Savoy's words just now seem to have broken Kamikaze's defenses.
Kamikaze's face flushed red and then turned pale. He stood there, gritting his teeth, glaring fiercely at Savoy: "Savoy...you...you...you're not going to live today...you're not going to live today!! I'll tear you apart!! I...I'll beat your ass to a pulp!!"
Ow.
Kamikaze unleashed a powerful aura of the deep sea and charged toward Savoy.
Savoy faced the enraged Kamikaze without any intention of dodging, but just as Kamikaze's fingers, imbued with the aura of the deep sea, were about to touch Savoy's cheek, they stopped as if a pause button had been pressed.
Because Xiaobai said so.
Fighting is not allowed in her home.
This was an order that transcended everything for Kamikaze, and she could not disobey it.
"Savoy... Next time, you'll be sorry! Humph!" Kamikaze withdrew his hand, stomped his foot in anger, and then ran away without daring to look at Shiro again. He plunged into a nearby tent, zipped it up, and immediately a series of punches and kicks came from inside the tent.
"Just as I thought." Savoy watched the departing Kamikaze and smiled slightly, then looked at Shiro with amusement. "You're quite capable, aren't you? You managed to tame a Kamikaze so well. What methods did you use? Tell us about them."
"Uh, well..." Xiaobai scratched his head and smiled sheepishly, "No..."
"Hehehehehehehehe—" Savoy laughed heartily in her silvery voice, then strode happily toward a spot. "I'm so happy. You've been having a great time since you came to this city. Keep it up, keep it up! I love it!"
Xiaobai watched Savoy's retreating figure, then glanced at Zuikaku Abyss. While the other Abyss Deans were interacting, Zuikaku Abyss had already quietly sat down in a corner of the hall, leaving only Barbarossa and Super Yamato beside Xiaobai.
“Miss Barbarossa, I…” Little White finally had a moment to speak to Barbarossa apologetically.
"I don't mind, you're more suitable than me."
"then you……"
"There's nothing particularly special about this job. Frederick will contact you when he wants to know what's going on in the city. Just patrol the city regularly and observe the other Deep Sea Deans." Barbarossa took out a crystal ball from her ship's equipment space and handed it to Little White. "This is Frederick's communicator with me. Here you go."
"Ah... okay, okay..." Xiaobai accepted the crystal ball.
Miss Barbarossa is a woman of few words.
Xiao Bai looked at the crystal ball in his hand. The crystal ball was made of glass and was about the size of two palms. It was foggy inside and he couldn't see what was inside. He wasn't sure what the imaging principle was.
But since Barbarossa has already given it to me, I'll keep it for now.
Xiao Bai thanks Barbarossa.
Barbarossa entered the hall and quickly became friends with the Deans of the Deep Sea again.
Looking at the bustling hall, Xiao Bai pondered for a long time while weighing the crystal ball in her hand. She still didn't put the crystal ball into her ship equipment space, nor did she carry it with her. Instead, she placed it in a relatively conspicuous place in the hall.
Frederick the Great's things... I'd better be careful.
Oh yes.
Speaking of which, when Frederick the Great spoke to me alone today, he even patted me on the shoulder...
Xiao Bai naturally wouldn't overinterpret Frederick the Great's pat on the shoulder as something like imparting the Seventy-Two Transformations in the dead of night. However, adhering to the principle of being cautious in daily life, Xiao Bai still used his mental power to examine his body, lest Frederick the Great secretly plant some kind of mental power seed again.
After checking himself two or three times to make sure that no spiritual seeds had been planted in his body, Xiaobai finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Super Yamato," Xiaobai said.
"What's wrong, Admiral!" Super Yamato came over excitedly, her face still lingering with the feeling that her Admiral was amazing and she was so proud to be the boss.
Xiao Bai looked at the large and innocent face, sighed, and then pointed to the second floor.
"Elbow, come into the house with me."
Xiao Bai dismissed the other ships, pulled Chao Da and one other person up to the second floor, and entered a relatively small room. Then he told Chao Da how difficult it would be for him to live as an undercover agent in this city if he became the second-in-command of the Deep Sea, and how easily his identity would be exposed, and so on.
Excitedly, Chao Da listened to Xiao Bai's explanation, but as he listened, his expression gradually froze, his mouth opened wider and wider, and then he covered his head in shock.
"Ah! Admiral, so... you didn't want to be appointed just now!?"
Good guy.
She finally understood.
“That’s right.” Xiaobai looked at Chao Yamato, who suddenly realized, with a helpless expression.
"Admiral...I, I, I..." Chao Da stammered, her proud expression turning complicated. She felt regret and shame, wishing she could disappear into the floor. "I...I'm sorry, I...I thought it was a good thing...I've let you down..."
Chao Da suddenly knelt down on the ground, pouting, holding his head, and big tears streamed down his face.
Seeing Chao Da's panicked appearance, Xiao Bai didn't continue to blame her. Instead, she quickly raised her hand and said to her, "Hey, it's okay. Actually, I didn't mean to be angry with you. You don't need to be like this. I didn't call you here to blame you."
"Huh? What, what is that?"
"Come here first." Xiaobai beckoned to Chaoda with her finger.
He moved his knees and got closer to Little White.
Xiaobai lowered her head, reached out and touched Chao Yamato's shoulder, then deftly lifted Chao Yamato's collar with her fingers, gently pulling open a small patch of fair skin at his collarbone.
It was huge and I was stunned.
Super Yamato isn't some clueless deep-sea dean. Although she's only been at the naval base for a short time, as her older sister, Deepsea Yamato has taught her quite a bit of things, such as that as a ship girl, you must listen to the admiral, and that we girls must protect ourselves when we're out in the world, and so on.
It was huge and its face was bright red.
With his head lowered, the water vapor instantly filled his eyes and eyelashes.
Is this... the Admiral's punishment...?
what…
It was huge and had its eyes tightly closed, waiting for Xiaobai's fingers to touch it further down.
Chapter 2127 The Rekindled Flame
But even with its eyes closed, Chaoda waited and waited, but still didn't get a touch from Xiaobai.
Xiaobai's palm lightly brushed across Chaodahe's large and smooth collarbone before pulling Chaodahe's collar back and covering it again.
Extra large and eyes open.
Little White was seen holding a glittering seed of spiritual energy between his fingers and smiling at himself.
"In short, let's first remove Frederick the Great's spiritual seed."
"..."
Extra large and looking down.
Oh.
Come to think of it, there was a time before when the Admiral helped me remove the seed of spiritual power, and I misunderstood him like this.
hiss……
Chao Yamato's shoulders trembled slightly, and he remained silent for a long time.
"Huh? Super Yamato, what's wrong?" Shiro asked with concern, startled.
"Admiral..." Chao Yamato protested in a low voice, "Next time... when you get this for me... please tell me first..."
"Ah...uh, okay, okay..." Xiaobai looked at Chaodahe's somewhat aggrieved expression. Although she didn't know what had happened, she felt a little guilty and quickly nodded. However, after thinking for a while, she shook her head and said to Chaodahe, "Ah...but that's what I mean. Actually, you don't need to put this spiritual seed back on you anymore."
"Huh?" Chao Dahe was taken aback. "Why?"
"Think about it, the spiritual seeds we had before were tools Frederick placed on us specifically to track us in order to prevent us from escaping."
"Yes."
"We don't need it now."
"Huh? Why?"
“Because,” Xiaobai said, hands on her hips, looking serious, “Frederick has already discovered that we can run away from here anytime, anywhere.”
"Oh... I see..." Chao Yamato nodded knowingly, but before he could finish, he suddenly realized something was wrong and looked up, his mouth agape. "Wait, Admiral! This isn't..."
"Don't worry, don't worry. Although Frederick discovered that we can escape at any time, he doesn't intend to pursue the matter." Xiaobai gently squeezed the shimmering spiritual seed between his index finger and thumb, crushing it into starlight that dissipated. Then, he looked seriously at Chao Yamato. "Frederick called me in for a private chat today to talk about this. Well... in short, our chat went fairly well. As you saw, she told me that we can move freely around this city from now on, and she won't stop us. After the chat, she even promoted me."
"As expected of the admiral!"
"It's not something to be proud of," Xiaobai said with a wry smile. "Don't tell the other Deans of the Deep Sea about how we were able to extract the seed of spiritual energy."
