43. Remember, No Talking About Battleships (Additional Chapter Due to Click Ranking)

On a silent sea, the girl with twin tails scratched her ear, looking at the Yamato with a strange expression on her face.

"…Sorry, the wind was too strong. What's your name?"

"Eh?"

Seeing the sudden change in the blonde girl's gaze, the Yamato felt at a loss.

What's going on? Did I do something wrong? Why is she looking at me like that? I just introduced myself, right? No, maybe I didn't introduce myself properly, which is why she's angry?

I feel like she's glaring at me fiercely… This can't be a hallucination, right? She looks like she wants to eat me.

Is it because my introduction wasn't detailed enough?

Feeling uneasy, the Yamato glanced at the girl in front of her and took a deep breath. Then, she put on what she thought was her most gentle expression and introduced herself in the most polite and humble tone.

"I am the flagship of the Northern Mixed Fleet, the first ship of the Yamato class, the Yamato. Please guide me, senior. I still have many shortcomings, so please point them out."

"…"

Why is her gaze even more intense now!

Looking at the girl with a few veins popping on her forehead, the Yamato felt like crying.

"Ah, don't mind it. It's just that we have a slight obsession with the name 'Yamato.' Yeah, there's really no big problem. Probably."

The ship girl who looked just like the Yamato shook her head with a bitter smile. The many subtle words made the Yamato feel a bit terrified, and she couldn't help but start to imagine some bizarre scenarios. By the time she came to her senses, her face was already full of fear.

"It's fine, no need to be so nervous."

But to her surprise, the ship girl who had been glaring fiercely suddenly smiled and patted the Yamato's shoulder.

"Anyway, you're just a destroyer. I just saved a group of destroyers, nothing to talk about. Yeah, just report that I saved a group of destroyers in the surrounding waters, simple and clear."

…Eh?

The Yamato's smile froze on her face.

Destroyer? Am I being subtly bullied? I'm clearly a battleship! And one of the strongest known battleships, why is she saying this?

"Um, I'm a battleship…"

"Eh?"

The blonde girl turned her head impatiently.

"I said you're a—"

'Boom'

But before she could finish, a shell flew in a beautiful arc and landed beside them, cutting off her words. The blonde girl's forehead twitched, and she took a deep breath. Then she glared fiercely at the Yamato again.

"Anyway, you can't be a battleship right now. It would be troublesome for me and others if you were. So you're a—"

'Boom'

Another dull sound.

As if in response, another shell hit beside the blonde girl, sending a high wave that drowned out her voice.

"Ah, this is bad."

Looking at the blonde girl standing in place, head down and trembling, the girl with a single ponytail smiled maliciously.

"…Shut up! You bunch of rabble!"

The blonde girl's expression twisted, and she suddenly raised her head, roaring at the group of Akagi-type battleships behind her. Then she raised her arm high into the dark sky and snapped her fingers.

'Hum'

A deep, low sound made everyone's chests feel heavy. The oppressive feeling was like the low pressure before a storm. Breathing became difficult, and their eyes felt swollen. A strange, fishy smell began to spread through the sea.

Not only did the ship girls feel this oppressive feeling, but even the deep-sea ships could sense an unusual pressure, making them instinctively spread out their formation.

"Since you want to die, I'll grant your wish."

Looking at the loose formation of the Akagi-type battleships, the blonde girl with twin tails smiled terrifyingly.

"Feel despair, bastards."

The blonde ship girl extended her slender hand and lightly traced the dark sky.

'Shred' A sound like tearing fabric. The sky was torn in two by a mysterious force.

It was as if a wound had been ripped open in the sky, with the world gradually splitting to the left and right, centered on the black-clad girl. The black subspace seemed to contain a demon's lair, with a cacophony of sharp, piercing sounds spreading over the sea.

No, not just the sounds. If you looked closely, you could see black, strange lines weaving through the subspace, like the breath of demons, gathering behind the black-uniformed girl. Countless dark red rhombic blocks lit up in the subspace, their intermittent dark red light locking onto the fleeing Akagi-type battleships.

"Sink to the bottom of the sea! Storm System! Activate! Do you know who I am!"

Facing the fleeing backs of the Akagi-type battleships, the blonde girl sneered and extended her hand, grabbing at their shadows.

Countless black lines silently shot out from the torn subspace, like ghosts, guided by the red arrows, crossing the sea in an instant and piercing the chests of all the Akagi-type battleships.

It was like a farmer reaping wheat with a scythe. Each swing produced a rustling sound, and several red demons would silently fall into the sea. After a few swings, the sea was calm, like a surface after a storm, with no objects floating on it.

What kind of person is this…

Looking at the satisfied blonde girl, the Yamato felt her future becoming even darker.

"Ah, right."

Satisfied, the girl took a deep breath, turned her gaze back to the Yamato, and smiled warmly, like a friendly little sister.

"You are indeed the Yamato D-E-S-T-R-O-Y-E-R, right? You've never been a battleship, and there is no 'Yamato' battleship in this world, whether it's the prototype or a replica. That thing doesn't exist, right?"

"Um, I really am…"

"Hmm?"

"…Yes."

Facing the smile with a strange shadow, the Yamato nodded reluctantly, acknowledging her position as a destroyer.
