45. Using the Ultimate Skill Consumes Too Much Energy, Switching People (Additional Chapter Due to the Signing List)

"I know you are curious about our identities, but I can't say more."

After a chaotic adjustment, it was confirmed that this was a mixed fleet led by the flagship Lei Xun, accompanied by a group of 'destroyers.' The leader who caused the chaos, a blonde girl with a serious face and a black hat without an emblem, cleared her throat and said seriously.

"You don't need to know our identities. We are just the Gray Ghosts. You don't need to understand our specific mission; you just need to know that we are not your enemies. That's enough."

The black-clad ship girl pulled on her black hat, her voice indifferent.

"However, due to the next mission, we cannot escort you all the way. Although we have orders, we also have our own difficulties. I hope you can understand. To us, you are just a burden."

"So we will help you leave this sea in another way. But don't worry, this escort will be perfect. There won't be any mistakes."

"Not because the fuel ran out after using the ultimate skill, right? What a show—ah!"

A voice seemed to come from among the black-clad ship girls, but it was quickly suppressed by a muffled groan. Then there were no more unusual sounds.

"To sum up, I will find someone to lead you out of here." She turned and glared fiercely at someone, then the blonde girl coughed and said seriously, "But don't worry, you will definitely get back."

"However, it's best if you never come back here. Best if you never come back at all."

The blonde girl said solemnly.

"This is not a place for people like you. Your battlefield should not be here. It's too early for you to be involved in this. Your fighting spirit and will are still like children playing house. So go back and don't come back."

"Talking as if it's true, aren't you just afraid that the admiral will see the real Yamato and expose your schemes, so you can't be cute and charming anymore, how sad—ah!"

"You don't need to speak, Comrade Plan Ship No. 1..."

She punched the silver-haired woman in the stomach, and the blonde girl looked indifferently at the Northern Mixed Fleet. Confirming that everyone was nodding like chickens pecking at rice, the tyrant nodded in satisfaction.

"So, don't be too surprised by what happens next. It might exceed your imagination. Just don't panic."

She took a deep breath and turned to roar at the distant sea.

"North! Are you watching?"

"This summoning method looks really familiar—ah!"

The blonde girl with twin pigtails indifferently pulled her wrist back from the silver-haired woman's stomach. Her azure eyes stared intently at the black sea, as if certain that something would emerge from it.

There's no way, right? Someone appearing just by shouting. Yamato's confusion grew as she looked at the calm waves.

"...I'm watching."

So there really is someone?!

In the shocked gazes of everyone, a voice came from the distant sea. A head emerged from the black sea, nodding at the blonde girl with twin pigtails. The purple eyes and the body lurking in the sea made everyone shiver involuntarily.

"You're as noisy as your admiral..."

A cold-faced woman gradually rose from the deep sea.

In the Northern Mixed Fleet, the ship girls who recognized her face turned pale with fear, almost falling into the sea.

That indifferent expression, the deep purple eyes, and the ability to speak perfectly matched their nightmare. The monster who had destroyed the Grand Fleet and was confirmed as a high-risk threat was slowly approaching them.

"What do you want now?"

The woman said indifferently as she faced the many ship girls.

The Northern Deep Sea Flagship, one of the most difficult Deep Seas known to humans, looked at the other ship girls without any change in her expression.

"What I want is simple."

The blonde ship girl sneered at the Northern Deep Sea.

"Send these people out of this sea. This is not a place for them."

"...Are you joking?"

"I'm not."

Facing the Northern Deep Sea's doubt, the blonde ship girl said proudly.

"This is a mixed fleet with Lei Xun as the flagship, and the rest are destroyers. They accidentally entered this sea, and they have nothing to do with our war."

"You say so, but do you think I'm a fool?"

"Go ask them if you don't believe me."

"Alright."

The Northern Deep Sea nodded and turned her pale purple gaze to Yamato's numb face.

"Are you a destroyer?"

"...Yes."

What else could she say?

Yamato looked at her equally numb and expressionless companions, forcing herself to shrink to look more like a destroyer. At least she wouldn't stand out so much.

"Why does a destroyer have a 460mm gun barrel?"

"Modified..."

"Why so many secondary guns?"

"The admiral forced them on me..."

"Oh, I see. Then follow me."

Facing Yamato's numb response, the Northern Deep Sea nodded seriously.

"This is indeed not a place for destroyers. Our target is those damned human admirals and their battleships. If destroyers and cruisers enter by mistake, they should be returned."

"But even as destroyers, this is your only chance to save your lives. Don't be reckless again."

"Yes..."

Looking at the other black-clad ship girls who seemed natural, Yamato looked up at the sky.

The sky was as dark as the mood of the Northern Mixed Fleet, completely devoid of any hope or sadness, just numb and expressionless.

'What is this feeling of frustration...'

Looking at the Northern Deep Sea leading the way, Yamato and the other warships couldn't help but shed a tear.
