"Washington, I'm so sorry—" Little White quickly ran up and apologized to Washington, "Are you alright?"
"Admiral, I'm practically skinned alive." Washington sighed, then rubbed her face in the seawater a few more times, finally regaining some of her previous fair complexion. She looked at Xiaobai with complicated emotions, then at Nanxing, who was still bowing and apologizing to her. For a moment, it seemed like she had a thousand words to say, but she held them back, letting out a helpless sigh, "Oh well... oh well... I wasn't really that bad."
Washington helped Nanxing up. She looked thoughtfully at the blushing Nanxing, and then at Xiaobai.
"Admiral... is Admiral Nanxing really human?" Washington asked doubtfully.
"Ah... about that... she's actually a hybrid of a human and a ship girl," Xiaobai explained.
“No wonder.” Washington nodded, suddenly realizing, “Those waves of B25 carrier-based aircraft’s staggered bombing just now, she did it so well, much better than the ship girls I’ve fought outside our naval base before. This is not a human who has just acquired ship equipment... this is clearly the level of a top-tier ship girl.”
Chapter 3271 A Rapidly Improving Genius
Washington Commentary: Today's aircraft carrier Nanxing possesses strength comparable to top-tier ship girls.
This conclusion left Nanxing stunned, staring blankly at Washington.
"Top-tier ship girl..." Xiaobai murmured to herself, tapping her lips, then shifted her gaze to Nanxing, "Is Sister Nanxing a top-tier ship girl now?"
"Ouch... that bombardment just now, if it wasn't an attack from a top-tier ship girl, it wouldn't have posed any threat to me at all." Washington rubbed his neck and sighed as he explained, "I'm an experienced instructor, and I'm very sensitive to the strength of ship girls. Admiral Nanxing is definitely a top-tier ship girl now."
"Wow..." After hearing this, Xiaobai looked at Nanxing with admiration, her eyes sparkling, "Sister Nanxing...you're so amazing."
“Me…” Nanxing pressed his hand to his chest.
Although Washington appeared to be constantly being chased and attacked by Nanxing in the battle just now, there was actually a lot of charlatanism involved.
Washington, after all, is still a newbie-level ship girl. Her strength is already above that of top-tier ship girls, making her a "newbie" level ship girl.
The reason why Washington was constantly being chased and attacked by Nanxing was not only because Nanxing's strength exceeded Washington's expectations, but also because Washington never thought of fighting back. She actually had many opportunities to retaliate and kill Nanxing, or at least disrupt Nanxing's offensive, but because she was brought here by Xiaobai to be Nanxing's sparring partner, she was in a passive and evasive state.
Although Washington was covered in grime after the battle, the fact that she had no injuries whatsoever proved her strength.
Nanxing only realized this after the battle ended and she saw that Washington himself had not suffered any substantial harm.
Nanxing thought he wasn't very strong.
As Nanxing was pondering, Xiaobai, who was standing beside him, had already taken out a quick repair device and handed it to Washington.
Washington was not injured, but the quick-repair device could also be used as a convenient tool for "one-click showering". Washington put the quick-repair device on his head, and with a time-reversal effect, Washington, who was covered in soot, quickly returned to a dry and clean appearance in a few breaths.
Washington removed the quick-repair device from her head, glanced at a crack along its edge, shrugged, and then placed it into her ship's equipment space.
"Admiral, let's get back to business." Washington complained to Xiaobai, "Admiral Nanxing's strength is obviously not that of a newcomer, and she also has a full complement of B25 carrier-based aircraft. Why didn't you tell me this sooner... I just made such a fool of myself. What if my students saw this? How embarrassing would that be?"
"Ah..." Upon hearing this, Xiaobai scratched his cheek sheepishly and gave Washington an awkward smile. "Yes, I'm sorry... I didn't know Sister Nanxing was so amazing... As for her B25, well, I'm even more..."
As Xiaobai spoke, she cautiously looked at Nanxing.
Nanxing lowered his head and spoke shyly.
“B25… was installed by me… at the weapons depot when I was at the naval base,” Nanxing explained softly. “Well… a few ship girls heard that I had obtained carrier equipment, so they pushed me to the depot, saying that as an admiral, I should use the best equipment, and they gave me B25…”
“Okay, this is my problem.” Little White smiled wryly at Washington. “I should have asked more clearly.”
"..." Washington shrugged, looking helpless.
Leading a B-25 exercise—what kind of family background does this person come from?
Even a newbie naval base doesn't have such luxury.
"I'll take B25 off right now," Nanxing said, making a move to open her ship's rigging.
"I remember there are some ordinary gold airplanes on the beach. If you don't mind, you can use them to replace the exercise," Xiaobai suggested.
“Okay…” Nanxing nodded subconsciously, but as soon as she nodded, she seemed to realize something and looked at Washington cautiously with a guilty expression.
"I'm fine... Anyway, I was just called here by the Admiral to be your sparring partner, Admiral Nanxing, and I'm not leaving," Washington said. "But Admiral Nanxing... now that you're a top-tier ship girl, I won't be holding back during the exercise, okay? Can you accept that?"
“…” Upon hearing this, Nanxing’s eyes lit up slightly, and then she nodded.
Nanxing is still looking forward to the exercise.
The three returned to shore, and Nanxing removed the B25 carrier-based aircraft from the ship's equipment and replaced it with a regular gold aircraft.
Washington also did a set of radio calisthenics to warm up, and then the two stepped onto the water and ran to the center of the water.
As the whistle signaling the start of the exercise sounded, the roar of carrier-based aircraft taking off and the fire of naval guns echoed across the sea.
The lively sounds of battle lasted for about half a minute, then quickly ended with a loud crash.
Distracted in controlling the carrier-based aircraft, Nanxing made a careless maneuver on the water and was repelled by a tricky frontal shot from Washington, causing fragments of the ship's equipment to scatter across the sea.
Nanxing sat on the water, looking at the broken ship equipment fragments all around her, blinking.
Washington, carrying the unused quick-repair device, approached Nanxing and placed it on her head.
“One to one!” Washington said with a smile. “Admiral Nanxing, you’d better watch out for my bombardment next time. Controlling the carrier-based aircraft while not completely ignoring the situation of the main body is a compulsory course for every aircraft carrier girl.”
“…” Nanxing stared blankly at Washington, and after a while, she nodded.
The quick-repair device split in two on Nanxing's head and fell down her hair into the sea.
Washington looked at Nanxing with satisfaction. She retreated to a safe distance, and with another whistle, the two began a fierce battle again.
Rumbling--
This time, the battle lasted for two or three minutes before Nanxing fell into a positioning error and was hit by Washington, collapsing onto the water.
Washington, carrying the rapid repair device, strode over to Nanxing.
“Miss Nanxing, your skills in piloting carrier-based aircraft are excellent, so sometimes you can choose to use carrier-based aircraft to force the enemy to give up their attack, thereby increasing your initiative in the battle.” Washington said as he placed the brand-new rapid repair device on Nanxing’s head with both hands.
Nanxing covered the quick-repair device on his head and nodded.
"How are you? Are you alright?" Washington asked.
“…Hmm.” Nanxing’s gaze was sincere as he stared intently at Washington.
Even though Nanxing had lost to Washington twice in just a few minutes, there was no sign of dejection in Nanxing's eyes. On the contrary, Nanxing's eyes were focused and serious, shining with a strong fighting spirit.
It's like... suddenly finding the meaning of life, and becoming indomitable.
The next exercise between Nanxing and Washington was soon underway.
On the turbulent sea, bombs from carrier-based aircraft and shells from battleships clashed and clashed.
This time, Nanxing held on for a full ten minutes.
……
Xiaobai initially stood on the sea not far from Nanxing and Washington, but as the two of them engaged in combat drills time and time again, Xiaobai slowly retreated.
Nanxing's progress was exceptionally noticeable and rapid.
After engaging Washington at full firepower, Nanxing, having lost B25, could only hold out for half a minute at first. However, with repeated experience and lessons learned, Nanxing gradually became able to hold its own against Washington. In the end, even Washington couldn't gain any advantage over Nanxing unless it used all its strength to fight.
All of this took less than two hours in total.
After watching the entire scene on the sea, Xiaobai's eyes widened slightly, and she felt a sense of emotion.
As for Nanxing's combat power as a ship girl... it's quite obvious that in just two hours, she has begun to break through the level of a top-tier ship girl and is gradually developing into a newbie-level ship girl...
Xiao Bai couldn't help but cover his mouth in amazement as he watched Nanxing on the water, changing positions to dodge Washington's shelling and controlling the countless carrier-based aircraft as if they were his own limbs.
Nanxing's figure already showed Xiaobai a hint of Saratoga's seasoned experience.
This was clearly Nanxing's first time fighting at sea, yet she achieved such results...
If Veneto and her family in Nia's household saw this rate of progress, they would probably be so angry they'd vomit blood.
Some ship girls in this world, after a lifetime of training and countless hardships, receiving strong support from the naval base and consuming all available resources, can only barely reach the level of a top-tier ship girl.
Some ship girls are top-tier ship girls the moment you touch their ship equipment; with a little practice, they can quickly reach the combat power of a beginner.
Is Nanxing really a genius among ship girls?
Or is it that your aunt's ship equipment really suits her so well?
Xiao Bai couldn't help but ask himself the same question again.
Xiaobai pondered as she returned to shore. Turning her head, she saw Shenhai Chicheng wearing a red bikini swimsuit, with an open sailor uniform draped over her upper body, sandals, sitting on a mat, hugging her white legs, gazing at the sea with a somewhat lonely expression.
Akagi's stunning figure was accentuated by her swimsuit, and her pure yet alluring movements made her even more captivating.
"Master, you are back."
When Akagi saw Shiro, the lonely look on her face immediately turned into a happy smile, and she waved to Shiro.
“Deepsea Akagi… Ah… Sorry, I’ve kept you waiting on the beach for a long time.” Xiaobai quickly returned to Deepsea Akagi’s side, sat on the mat next to Deepsea Akagi’s bottom, and said to her.
"It's not the Admiral's problem. If I also had ship equipment, I could go to the surface to find you, Master." Akagi shook her head, smiling brightly. "Master, do I look good in my swimsuit?"
Xiaobai looked Shenhai Chicheng up and down, then nodded with a blush.
"I'm glad you're happy, my lord." Akagi from the Deep Sea spread her arms and turned to hug Shiro.
Chapter 3272 Poaching
Carrier-based aircraft circled and roared in the sky.
The fiery red shells pierced through layers of water, shooting into the sea like meteors. Then, with a thunderous roar, a water curtain tens of meters high shot into the sky amidst the flames, before turning into a shower of silver dust.
Broken rain fell.
The sea echoed with a crashing, rumbling sound.
Two figures tugged and crisscrossed each other amidst the flames, as carrier-based aircraft clashed fiercely with artillery shells.
One deafening explosion after another rang out.
The battle on the sea was quite fierce.
Meanwhile, on the other side.
on the beach.
As Xiaobai felt the touch emanating from Akagi in the deep sea, he couldn't help but close his eyes.
Wearing only a swimsuit, Akagi's large expanse of snow-white skin pressed tightly against Shiro in an intimate embrace. Even through the fabric, the soft, silky texture of her skin clearly conveyed a bouncy, jelly-like feel to Shiro's body.
So comfortable.
Xiao Bai thought to himself.
Then, Akagi, embracing Shiro, began to slowly twist her body, her elastic body grinding against Shiro's.
In an instant, the stimulating sensation came in waves.
Xiaobai's shoulders trembled, and before she could lose her composure, she quickly reached out and pressed down on Shenhai Chicheng's shoulder.
“Deep Sea Akagi… there are still people on the beach.” Xiaobai’s face instantly turned red, and she whispered a reminder, “No… not here…”
Deep Sea Akagi obediently stopped, then leaned close to Xiaobai's ear, her snow-white arm around Xiaobai's shoulder, and said with a sweet smile, "Does Master mean...we should go home and continue now?"
"You...you spare me!" Xiaobai begged for mercy on the spot.
Nanxing and Washington are still practicing on the beach, and Xiaobai doesn't dare to drag Shenhai Chicheng back to the dormitory at this time.
If Lexington finds out that he has neglected his guest, he'll probably be summoned to the admiral's office for another lecture.
With a series of silvery laughs, Akagi finally released Little White and returned to her seat.
"My lord, I was just joking. Please don't take it seriously," Akagi Fukami said with a light laugh, covering her mouth.
"..." Xiaobai looked helplessly at Shenhai Chicheng. She sighed, shifted her gaze to the sea, tilted her head and gently rested it on Shenhai Chicheng's arm. "Shenhai Chicheng."
"Lord?"
"From your vantage point, can you see the battle situation on the sea?"
"Barely," Akagi said with a smile. "I only have human-level eyesight right now, so I can't see anything too detailed at this distance. But at least I can still recognize the arrangement of carrier-based aircraft in the sky."
"In your opinion, what do you think of Sister Nanxing's skills in piloting carrier-based aircraft?"
"Hmm... I think it's at least first-rate." Akagi Fukami raised a finger and lightly tapped her lower lip, her gaze fixed on the sky.
"To be considered top-notch by Akagi, it must be truly impressive," Xiaobai remarked.
"It seems that my evaluation still holds a place in Your Majesty's heart," Akagi Shinkai smiled.
The conversation was interrupted for a short while.
Little White rested its head on Deep Sea Akagi's arm, quietly gazing at the sea.
On the sea, Nanxing, who was controlling the aircraft carrier, was locked in a fierce battle with Washington, with the two sides exchanging blows.
The battle was intense and fierce.
