"We can't win! We absolutely can't win! Don't even think about fighting! Run for your lives! Take this message back! Hurry!" The ship girl, who was counting the deep-sea metal, said urgently to her companions, "I was wrong. When we get back, I don't care if I kneel, commit seppuku, or slap myself, but right now, we have to escape with all our might! Understand?"
The cautious ship girl was still stunned at this moment, and only reacted after hearing her companion's reminder.
She nodded heavily, wiping back the tears that were about to spill from her eyes, and then ran with all her might towards home, following her companion.
However, it still didn't work.
"Roar!!!" In the distance, the black and red deep-sea dean saw that the two fleeing ship girls had no intention of fighting and shouted angrily.
Her roar reached the ears of the fleeing ship girls, who felt their ship equipment freeze at that moment.
The sound waves spread out from beneath my feet, and an indescribable feeling of stiffness quickly took over my entire body.
Their escape speed slowed down instantly.
"Oh no, it's a Deep Sea Dean with miracles..." The ship girl who was counting the Deep Sea metal covered her ears, feeling as if her feet were filled with lead, making it difficult to move.
"What are we going to do now... Is only one of us going to be left?" The ship girl counting the deep-sea metal bit her lip and looked at the ship girl next to her who was also covering her ears and closing her eyes as she ran towards home.
She bit her lip hard, and with a sharp pain in her lip, she turned her head sharply behind her.
Then, she saw the Deep Sea Dean, who was so close, with eyes that seemed to be blazing with fire, reaching out to grab her head.
She stared blankly at the domineering smile on Dean Shenhai's lips.
"So...fast?"
Then, the Dean of the Deep Sea grabbed the heads of the two ship girls with his two hands.
With a tremendous force that seemed to tear their heads off, the two ship girls were yanked onto the sea surface and plunged heavily into the water.
Then, the Deep Sea Dean's cannons were aimed at their bodies.
"boom!!!"
A thunderous roar, like lightning, shot from the sea and soared into the sky in an instant.
Flames, accompanied by a fierce wind, raged amidst the splashing water.
Soon, everything returned to calm.
Deep Sea Musashi withdrew her hands from the heads of the two ship girls and looked at the enemy in front of her.
The two ship girls were enveloped in a faint red light. It was this light that prevented Abyssal Musashi's bombardment from penetrating deeper and tearing their bodies apart.
However, even though the ship girls' bodies were not directly damaged, the intense bombardment at close range still severely impacted their brains, causing them to faint from shock.
Deep Sea Musashi frowned as he looked at the enemy in front of him.
She disliked the feel of it; it was hard, like a tortoise shell.
She reached out and touched the ship girl's body, then raised an eyebrow and pulled out a piece of chocolate cake that had been completely shattered from one of the ship girls' bodies.
Deep Sea Musashi stuck out his tongue and gently licked a piece of cake from his hand.
……
"...So sweet."
A blank, muttering sound drifted from the mouth of this domineering Dean of the Deep Sea Academy.
Chapter 409 Disguised Infiltration
The deep sea is a creature born from the endless resentment of the deep sea. They rush forward one after another, unafraid of death. Because they lack intelligence and rationality, they are extremely weak individually, but this also makes their collective strength extremely terrifying.
Like a swarm of army ants in the ocean, they brought devastation wherever they went.
However, precisely because of this, it's impossible for knowledge to be passed down within the deep-sea amphibious ships. Knowledge is something that is unattainable for the deep sea.
—The carrier of knowledge is language, but there is no language among deep-sea vessels that is clear enough to carry knowledge.
Without language, we cannot understand, we cannot learn, and we cannot accurately execute commands.
That is why the girl, born from the resentment of the deep sea, gave Deep Sea Musashi human language.
With its perfect life form, much like that of a deep-sea dean, Deep Sea Musashi's rationality and wisdom are also evolving rapidly.
This is the first hurdle that Deep Sea Musashi has encountered on its path of rational evolution.
"...So sweet." Deep Sea Musashi murmured softly, looking at the shattered chocolate cake in his hand.
She had never experienced this wonderful feeling before. It was as if something beautiful was blooming in her mouth, turning into streams of clear water that flowed through her limbs and bones, while simultaneously transforming into pleasurable sensations that kept stimulating her body.
I can't understand it, I can't understand it, this is so strange.
As a deep-sea amphibious vessel, Deepsea Musashi does not need to eat, so she has always simply believed that the mouth on her face is just a tool for roaring and has no other use.
However, just now, while holding the cake crumbs, Deep Sea Musashi inexplicably and subconsciously used this tool to touch them.
Deep Sea Musashi swallowed the slightly sweet saliva in his mouth.
As the sweetness swept across her tongue and was swallowed deep into her body, a light seemed to shine in Yamato's fiery red eyes. She cupped her hand, which was covered in cake crumbs, in her other hand, brought it to her face, and gently licked it.
The familiar, wonderful feeling once again filled Deep Sea Musashi's body.
Deep Sea Musashi began to shovel large mouthfuls of cake crumbs into his mouth, then carefully licked every line on his palm twice with his tongue until he could no longer taste any sweetness on his entire hand.
Deep Sea Musashi opened her glowing eyes and looked at the ship girls lying on the water in front of her.
She crouched down next to the ship girl and began to rummage through her body.
The two unconscious ship girls still had heavy damage protection on their bodies, but this protection emanated from their skin. As an extension of their ship equipment, their clothes did not have heavy damage protection.
Yamato roughly ripped off the clothes of two ship girls, reaching inside their garments to search for that sweet item from his memory.
However, her efforts were in vain. That piece of chocolate cake was something the ship girl had taken out of her ship equipment space by a rather coincidental circumstance, and it was impossible to find a second piece on them.
Even after stripping the two ship girls in front of her completely naked, Deepsea Musashi still couldn't find the pile of things she remembered.
Deepsea Musashi bit into the clothes she had taken off the ship girl. After confirming several times that it wasn't edible, Deepsea Musashi threw the clothes back onto the ship girl with some disappointment.
So what exactly is it?
Deep Sea Musashi touched his flat stomach and pondered this.
I didn't feel uncomfortable or comfortable after eating it, but I did experience an indescribable sense of satisfaction while eating it.
Deep Sea Musashi stood in front of two naked ship girls, looking down at them.
As an incredibly greedy deep-sea vessel, Deep Sea Musashi has no concept of satisfaction. When she encounters something she likes, even though she has gained a high level of rationality through human language, she will still resort to the most primitive methods.
That means to plunder.
Deep Sea Musashi followed the ship girls on the sea surface and looked in the direction they were fleeing.
That direction is most likely where humanity's home is, right?
That way, there should be lots and lots of sweet things like that one from before.
Deep Sea Musashi took a step in that direction.
Although she didn't know why, she always had an inexplicable urge to go to the human homeland and bring back the traitorous deep-sea amphibious ships, but Deepsea Musashi didn't know why she wanted to do it.
But now, she has found a reason to go to the human homeland.
She's going to plunder!
Deep Sea Musashi didn't even glance at the two ship girls at her feet, and ran straight towards the human homeland.
The massive ship equipment stirred up waves on the sea surface, charging toward its target with an indomitable and domineering momentum.
……
Then, Deep Sea Musashi charged back with unstoppable momentum.
She returned to the two ship girls' side and looked seriously at the enemy who was unconscious on the surface of the water.
Deep Sea Musashi considered a possibility.
—If I were to fight with humans, it might affect all those delicious things. What if I accidentally destroyed them all?
Moreover, even if you don't destroy those delicious things, fighting with humans could very well cause you to miss the chance to come into contact with them.
Deep Sea Musashi doesn't dislike fighting; on the contrary, as a newly appointed Deep Sea Dean, she longs to prove her strength through battle.
But now is clearly not the time for fighting.
At this moment, Deep Sea Musashi's little brain started to work.
She stared at the ship girl in front of her as she pondered, like a successful hunter scrutinizing his prey.
After a while, Deep Sea Musashi seemed to have finally made up his mind.
The ship's rigging behind her slowly disappeared, and Abyssal Musashi's clothes and the two horns on her head also vanished into nothingness along with the rigging.
She lowered her head and compared her own body to the ship girl in front of her.
Aside from the faint deep-sea resentment that always lingers around him, his physical characteristics are now almost identical to those of the ship girls lying in front of him.
—A deep-sea grudge?
Deep Sea Musashi closed her eyes, and as a red light shone on her forehead, the aura of deep-sea resentment on her body rapidly faded and finally disappeared.
Gathering deep-sea resentment within the deepest part of her body and releasing it to intimidate surrounding enemies is an ability that Deepsea Musashi gained after becoming the flagship of the Deep Sea. With this ability, she can temporarily suppress the conspicuous aura of the Deep Sea within her body, making it possible for her to appear exactly like a ship girl.
After the deep-sea resentment completely disappeared, the red light on Deep Sea Musashi's forehead gradually faded. She opened her eyes and once again compared her appearance with that of the ship girl in front of her.
This time, Deep Sea Musashi finally nodded in satisfaction, then grabbed the ship girl's clothes, pants, and boots that she had previously roughly torn off, and put them on herself one by one.
The clothes were clearly not a good fit, and Deep Sea Musashi tugged at his collar uncomfortably, looking at his reflection in the water.
On the water, a slender white-haired woman was clutching her collar. Her clothes, which were clearly a size too small, clung tightly to her body, outlining her stunning figure.
In short, the current state is probably closer to that of a ship girl, right?
—Disguise successful.
Deep Sea Musashi then took off running towards the human home.

After leaving the courtyard where they were temporarily staying at the naval base together, Saratoga happily took Whitey around the city.
Girls have a natural talent for shopping, especially with the stamina boost from being shipgirls, they're practically invincible humanoid Gundams when it comes to shopping.
The last time I went shopping with Saratoga was in Yuxiu. Looking back now, it feels like a long time ago. The friendship between Xiaobai and Saratoga was already deeply rooted before that.
Now that she finally had another chance to be alone, Saratoga was overjoyed.
"Little White, there!"
"Little White, over here!"
"Little White, there!"
Saratoga seemed to have memorized the map, leading Little White through the makeshift city with remarkable ease and clarity.
The city was much larger than the city in the first chapter's sea area. Despite the purposeful sightseeing in Saratoga, as sunset approached, they only managed to wander from the city center to the beach.
The beach was bustling with people, and many admirals were gazing out to sea with their ship girls. Beyond the beach, there were familiar vendors, shops, and open-air restaurants.
"Little White, that's the beach," Saratoga said, pointing to the bustling scene on the beach.
Xiaobai understood Saratoga's meaning, and the two of them walked towards the beach.
Autumn is approaching, and the heat of the day is not so pronounced. As the sun sets, the beach is radiating a little remaining warmth.
"Would you like some noodles?" Saratoga asked the little white dog cautiously.
"You can only eat a little bit. There must be food at home."
"I'll eat what you didn't finish. I can eat a lot." Saratoga happily pulled Little White towards an open-air restaurant.
Just as the two reached the restaurant entrance, a tall figure standing at the entrance caught Xiaobai's attention.
It was a white-haired woman with pale skin, wearing clothes a size smaller than herself. Beneath her tight body curves, a section of her shapely waist and a pair of slender legs were revealed.
On her cool and beautiful face, a pair of red eyes were quietly watching the food cooking in the chef's wok in front of the restaurant.
Xiao Bai frowned and looked at the woman a few more times, somewhat strangely.
It has a kind of deep-sea amphibious ship vibe...
Xiaobai stared at the woman's skin, which was almost as pale as that of Yamato Akagi, and thought to himself.
Chapter 410
The woman staring at the restaurant didn't even notice her appearance, demeanor, or how unusual her position was. As a result, many people in the restaurant also noticed her, but she remained oblivious to everyone else, quietly standing at the entrance, staring at the rice scoop and wok in the hands of the chef not far from her.
