“Akagi Senpai, what do you need from me?”
The words were polite, but in reality, Black Long Straight Elder Sister remained seated in the corner of the Izakaya, casually flipping through a magazine without even lifting her head.
“You know, this is quite rude behavior,” Lexington reminded her. Although she and Akagi were “lifelong enemies,” that was an internal conflict within the Naval Base. Outside, they had to maintain a united front, so Lexington was very displeased with Nagato ignoring Akagi.
“Let’s be clear, it was you who came to find me, not the other way around. Besides, I have no intention of interacting with you.”
With a loud clap, Nagato closed the book in her hands and looked directly at Chuyang and the others.
Unlike other Fleet Girls, whose voices were either gentle or bright, Nagato’s voice was slightly hoarse yet deeply magnetic.
Her entire demeanor gave off a cold and distant impression, making her seem rather unapproachable.
“Exactly! We don’t want to talk to you either! Poi! American ship, go away, Poi!”
With a bow-shaped headband on her head and long pink hair, Yuudachi, a Loli, made a face at Lexington while showing off her small tiger teeth and waving her tiny fists in a show of defiance, looking exceptionally cute.
The girl named Shigure, with black hair and similar animal ear-like tufts on either side of her head styled in braids, timidly hid behind Nagato, looking pitiful as if she were about to cry.
“Wu Gang Snow Wind, Sasebo Shigure.”
Although Chuyang had not yet found Snow Wind, he certainly had Shigure. However, he did not have this little girl; as an Admiral, failing to gather both auspicious ships would be no different from being a useless person.
Moreover, this girl was also unfortunate; in the history of the Old World, she belonged to the Nishimura Fleet along with Fusou and Yamashiro. During the Battle of Leyte Gulf, Shigure witnessed firsthand the sinking of both Yamashiro and Fusou. Thinking back to an image circulating online in his previous life only deepened Chuyang’s sympathy for the Loli.
Under the gray sky, with tattered clothes and a face smeared with gunpowder, Shigure stood alone on the surface of the sea, gazing at the battlefield where smoke had yet to clear, wiping away her tears with her hand.
“Fusou-nee… Yamashiro-nee… We promised to return together…”
“Don’t worry, Fusou, Yamashiro, I have both of you. Come quickly into this Admiral’s embrace.”
And Yuudachi also did not have it, so Chuyang's heart, which had already calmed down, began to rise again upon seeing the two adorable Loli.
"Uh!"
After hearing Nagato's words, Akagi was a bit stunned. Although Nagato had always been rather indifferent towards her in the past, it was never to the extent of not wanting to say a word more.
After dropping that line, Nagato shot a fierce glare at Chuyang, whose gaze towards Shigure and Yuudachi was too intense, then stood up and pulled the two Loli out of the shop, leaving everyone with a cold and distant back.
"Little ones, if you have time, you can come play at my Naval Base. There are many cute Destroyer just like you there!"
Chuyang waved his hand, wearing what he thought was a friendly smile as he winked at Shigure, who turned back to look inside the shop.
However, his tone and demeanor resembled that of a legendary uncle preparing to abduct little girls, causing the already frightened Loli, who had been sucking on her finger, to rush in front of Nagato like a startled little rabbit.
Upon hearing Chuyang's words, Nagato paused for a moment before suddenly quickening her pace. Grabbing one Loli with each hand, she swiftly disappeared at the end of the alley.
"Admiral, it's a Loli Complex!" Lexington teased.
She had never really believed that Chuyang had a Loli Complex, even though he often pinched the cheeks of various Destroyer at the Naval Base. But today, she believed it.
"Cuteness is justice; Loli are the cutest."
Of course, this was something that Chuyang only shouted in his heart. He would never admit to having a Loli Complex! Nor would he acknowledge that whenever he saw a cute Loli, he felt an impulse to take her home and raise her.
"You don't need to worry too much; Little Nagato's personality is just like that." The nearby Boss lady Feng Xiang explained gently after witnessing the entire process. "She has always been this way; she doesn't like getting close to strangers."
"But Fengxiang, Nagato wasn't like this with me before." Akagi was very confused about why there had been such a drastic change in Nagato's attitude towards her after just one day apart.
"Everyone take a seat!"
After inviting the three of them to sit by a low table, Feng Xiang served each of them a cup of tea before kneeling down across from them and said to Akagi: "Are you wondering why Nagato's attitude towards you has changed so drastically?"
"En."
"Actually, it's not a big deal, it's just because you have Admiral."
"Why?" Chuyang interjected. Before this, he and Nagato didn't know each other, so why did Nagato dislike him so much, and why did it also affect Akagi?
"Fengxiang, didn't you say that Nagato is a high-ranking official at the Naval Headquarters branch in Rongcheng? As far as I know, the Naval Headquarters has always been very supportive of Fleet Girls without an Admiral getting together with an Admiral. Her current attitude seems to completely contradict the policies that the Naval Headquarters has always upheld!"
Although Akagi didn't say it outright, the implication was clear: how could Nagato, who disagreed with her superiors and went against the values of the entire Naval Headquarters, have reached that position?
Additionally, the reason Akagi thought of using Nagato to inquire about the specific news of the Heavy Cruiser Idol Group was precisely because Nagato was a high-ranking official at the Rongcheng Branch.
As an idol group affiliated with the Naval Headquarters Cultural Troupe, others might not know their specific itinerary in Rongcheng. However, as a senior manager at the Naval Headquarters Rongcheng Branch, Nagato would definitely know. Even if she didn't know, it would be easy for her to obtain their exact whereabouts.
"Little Akagi, nothing is absolute. Although the mainstream ideology of the Naval Headquarters is as you said, they often encourage subordinate Fleet Girls to interact with their Admirals, and they are very supportive of them getting together."
"But nothing is absolute. At least one of the Three Admirals of the Naval Headquarters, Bismarck, doesn't think highly of Admiral."
"And while there are only a small number of Fleet Girls who hold such thoughts within the Naval Headquarters, they cannot be ignored."
"Of course, the previous Nagato was not like this..."
