I'm sorry, everyone. Due to work-related issues, my mood has been quite unpleasant, which has affected my writing. Therefore, the updates have been very unstable these past few days. However, I can assure you that I will not enter the palace; this is the only promise I can make. I expect to resume normal updates around National Day, and I hope everyone can understand.
Regarding the question posed by Carmicia, Shangguan Yuluo was unsure how to respond. The title of European Emperor was neither conferred by the Admiral Alliance nor granted by Naval Headquarters. To put it simply, it is not an official title and does not receive official recognition; it is merely a term used privately among Admirals.
However, there is no doubt that any Admiral who receives this honor with the approval of the majority of Admirals must command many rare Fleet Girls.
Thinking back to the Fleet Girls mentioned by Carmicia, although each one is indeed rare, their numbers seem insufficient. Otherwise, in this era, there wouldn't only be one European Emperor; thus, Chuyang still falls short.
"Having just Richelieu, Enterprise, and Veneto among these Fleet Girls doesn't qualify one as a European Emperor unless..." Shangguan Yuluo suddenly realized something and stiffly turned to look at Chuyang, saying, "What she said isn't true, right?"
"Well, not entirely."
"Little one, lying is not a good thing," Shangguan Yuluo teased.
Of course! A newcomer who just graduated from Naval Academy could not possibly be assigned so many powerful Fleet Girls and still be stationed at a coastal Land-Based Naval Base; they would surely become a military commander of a Forward Base.
Moreover, although communication in this era is relatively limited and the Asian Battle Zone is one of the three major Battle Zones—not like the internet age where news spreads globally instantly—the Admiral community is neither too big nor too small. They all belong to one Battle Zone. If there were indeed a naval newcomer with so many rare Fleet Girls under their command, there should have been some rumors or signs. However, when Shangguan Yuluo left Naval Base a month ago, they had never heard of anyone named Chuyang.
So after hearing Chuyang's response, he subjectively believed that Loli was lying just to save face for the Admiral.
"Hmph! Believe it or not; you'll be crying later," Carmicia muttered to herself as she lowered her head and took a long straw to sip orange juice from her cup.
However, just because Shangguan Yuluo didn't understand the meaning behind Chuyang's words at that moment didn't mean Colorado felt the same way.
"Admiral, I think we should leave!" Colorado whispered while carefully tugging at the still-chatting Shangguan Yuluo.
What does "not all" mean? It means some are, and some are not. It doesn't have to be too many; as long as the other party has any one of those Fleet Girls, in terms of rarity, she cannot compare to Colorado.
"Why?" Shangguan Yuluo asked in confusion. Although it seemed that showing off ships had a poor effect, what did that matter? As a senior, it was quite nice to educate juniors in a senior's tone.
"Admiral, Chutong is talking about 'not all,'" Colorado reminded.
"So what if it's not all?" Looking at Chuyang, who remained calm and unperturbed, Shangguan Yuluo was taken aback, and her face instantly darkened.
"Junior, can you tell me what 'not all' means?"
"Oh, that! I need to correct Carmicia's statement. I currently don't have those two Fleet Girls, Lion and Enterprise; I only have Veneto, Prince of Wales, and Richelieu."
Chuyang said this in an incredibly calm tone, taking his time to express the above.
"Weren't you saying you couldn't build Fleet Girls? Where did you get them?"
"I fished them out! In Rongcheng, I fished out Firefly and Lexington, then casually caught Andrea Doria. On my way to Naval Base, I caught Saratoga and Isuzu, and finally after arriving at Naval Base, I caught Richelieu."
Chuyang recounted everything in detail. Since Carmicia enjoyed showing off ships, why not join in? He could experience the fun of showing off ships while also increasing Loli's favorability; why wouldn't he want to?
"Wait a minute, what about Prince of Wales and Veneto?"
"I fished them out in Blanca! Didn't I say I came to Europe to find people? Coincidentally, Prince of Wales, Veneto, Kayo, Aviere, and Carmicia were all together, so I caught them all at once."
Regardless of his demeanor or tone, Chuyang seemed to be talking about something trivial. However, this behavior appeared extremely annoying to Shangguan Yuluo.
"Chu Yangyue" said, and "Shangguan Yuluo's" expression became increasingly grim. Listening to the mention of those "Fleet Girls," aside from Firefly and "Isuzu," which one of them was not a coveted existence that others dreamed of but could not attain? Damn "European White Monkey."
At this moment, the guy who initially had a carefree attitude was on the verge of tears. Who would have thought that someone he previously considered an absolute "African Admiral" could suddenly turn into a pale-faced "European"? Wasn't the contrast a bit too much?
Not only did he fail to show off his ship, but he also ended up with a face full of embarrassment, seeking some kind of superiority that was purely self-inflicted. If time could rewind, "Shangguan Yuluo" would rather wait a few days than board this cruise ship. Just thinking about the upcoming journey, with a "Seal" in front of him flaunting a bunch of ultra-rare "Fleet Girls," made him feel like the sky was darkening.
As for why "Shangguan Yuluo" didn't doubt the authenticity of "Chuyang's" words, to be honest, no Admiral would joke about such matters, as it could easily be exposed.
"Why didn't you say so earlier?"
"You didn't ask."
"Oh..." "Shangguan Yuluo" was left speechless. Thinking back, he indeed never asked "Chuyang" how many "Fleet Girls" there were; he only heard the other party say they couldn't build any "Fleet Girls," mistakenly believing that "Chuyang" only had "Carmicia."
But that didn't make sense! If obtaining ships were that easy, then the world would be filled with Europeans. Not to mention an "Elder Sister-Class Shipgirl" like "Prince of Wales," even a "Loli" like "Carmicia" would be hard to come by.
Could it be that "Chuyang," like "Carmicia," was just another guy who talked big?
However, before this thought could settle in "Shangguan Yuluo's" mind, the disdainful words he wanted to say got swallowed back down. This was because "Carmicia" was continuously waving towards the staircase, where four "Fleet Girls," two big and two small, were standing. When they noticed the waving "Loli," they all walked over.
"Princess of Wales, Sister Richelieu, Big Sister Veneto, Sister Kayo, Avi, over here."
