"noob……"

"noob?"

“Just now… my carrier-based aircraft sent back a message… Little White… seems to be back…” Lexington lowered her head and murmured to Saratoga.

"What?!"

Chapter 1895 Relationship

"Little White? Sister, didn't you say Little White wouldn't be back for several more months?!" Saratoga perked up immediately upon hearing the name Little White. She looked up in surprise, her big, watery eyes sparkling.

“Yes…Logically speaking, it should still be early…but…” Lexington nodded, covered her mouth with the back of her hand and thought for a while, then said thoughtfully, “If the information sensed by my carrier-based aircraft is correct, Little White has already appeared in the waters near our naval base and is heading this way.”

Although Lexington resides in the Admiral's office, as an excellent aircraft carrier girl, her carrier-based aircraft can serve as her eyes, constantly circling in the sky, patrolling and observing the sea area near the newbie naval base.

It can be said that any movement on the sea within a ten-mile radius of the naval base, no matter how subtle, will not escape Lexington's perception.

"Has Little White finished exploring Chapter 8?" Saratoga tugged at Lexington's sleeve, asking him pitifully.

"Hmm... I don't know either, but I didn't see Bismarck and Hood around Xiaobai."

"Did Little White come back alone?" Saratoga asked curiously.

“No, there’s someone else with her.” Lexington shook his head.

"Who is it?" Saratoga immediately became alert. "Missouri?"

“No… it’s Super Yamato. Even I completely don’t understand what Xiaobai did this time…” Lexington gave a strange smile. She bent down to pick up the wooden comb from the ground, casually placed it on the coffee table, then gently patted Saratoga’s shoulder and softly called to Saratoga, “Alright Saratoga, stand up and quickly tidy up your clothes.”

"?"

"Let's go pick up Xiaobai."

"!"

Saratoga jumped to his feet, standing as straight as a javelin.

buzzing-

As Xiaobai and Chao Yamato were traveling on the sea, they suddenly heard the roar of carrier-based aircraft. A snow-white carrier-based aircraft descended from the high sky and began to circle rapidly above Xiaobai and Chao Yamato.

"Admiral, watch out—" The moment the carrier-based aircraft appeared, Chao Yamato shouted, then quickly stood in front of Shiro, staring warily at the carrier-based aircraft that appeared in the sky, his aura of the deep sea surging and stirring around him.

"Ah, Super Yamato, wait a minute, that's not the enemy." Xiaobai looked up at the carrier-based aircraft and quickly sensed a familiar aura on it. Xiaobai smiled with relief and then pulled back the Super Yamato that was trying to shoot down the carrier-based aircraft.

"Admiral?"

“These are Lexington’s carrier-based aircraft,” Xiaobai explained to Chaoda with a smile. “It seems Lexington already knows we’re back.”

"..." Super Big and Silently put away their battle stance.

Xiaobai and the super-sized aircraft above them circled a few times before slowly flying in one direction. Xiaobai knew that Lexington was using its aircraft to guide her, so she called to the super-sized aircraft, and the two quickened their pace to catch up with the aircraft.

Lexington's carrier-based aircraft led White and Super Yamato to a vast, deserted sea. On the sea, Lexington and the eagerly awaiting Saratoga were waiting for White.

"Little White!" Upon seeing Little White, Saratoga couldn't contain her excitement. She took long strides and ran towards Little White. She reached Little White like a gust of wind, hugged her tightly, and excitedly nuzzled her face against Little White's cheek. "So it really is you!"

"Yes, it's me. Saratoga, I'm back." Little White put his arm around Saratoga's waist and smiled at her.

"How come you're back so soon!" Saratoga exclaimed in surprise.

"Well... it's a long story..." Xiaobai scratched his cheek sheepishly, glancing at Lexington.

Lexington approached Little White with a smile.

Lexington first cast her curious gaze at Super Yamato, observed it for a while, and then slowly looked at Shiro.

"If I'm not mistaken, at this time, Xiaobai, you should be in the eighth chapter participating in the exploration mission, right? Or did you finish exploring the eighth chapter, which has troubled humanity for decades, in just over half a month?"

"Haha..." Xiaobai laughed awkwardly, "Of course not..."

"Where are Akagi and Bismarck? Didn't they come back with you?"

"No, they're still at the other end of Chapter Eight."

"Chapter Eight?" Lexington was slightly taken aback.

"Hmm... I was just about to explain this to you." Xiaobai released Saratoga's waist and looked at Super Yamato standing beside him. "Let me introduce you first. This is Super Yamato... You both know Lexington and Saratoga, right?"

“I know her. She’s one of the sisters who recently joined the naval base, right?” Lexington smiled slightly at Chaoda. “If I remember correctly, she’s a shy little sister.”

"..." Chao Da lowered his head, his fingers awkwardly intertwined in front of his thighs.

“Super Big and she are actually a Deep Sea Dean with teleportation abilities. Just half a day ago we were still in Chapter 8, and I asked her to teleport me back here,” Xiao Bai then explained to Lexington.

"Teleportation ability?" Lexington and Saratoga were slightly taken aback, looking at Super Yamato in surprise.

"..." Chao Yamato lowered her head again, seemingly unsure how to face Lexington and Saratoga's gazes. She took two steps slightly behind Shiro.

"It sounds pretty fantastical, doesn't it? Actually, that's what I felt the first time I heard it..." Xiaobai smiled frankly.

"It does sound... quite fantastical..." Lexington looked thoughtfully at Super Yamato and slowly nodded. "However... I suppose you, Whitebeard, don't usually joke around at times like this... so it seems it must be true..."

"Sister! Sister!" Saratoga eagerly hugged White's arm and urged Lexington, "White's finally back! Let's go home and talk, let's go home and talk!"

Saratoga didn't seem very interested in how or why Little White came back. For Saratoga personally, all she wanted to do right now was to go back to the naval base with Little White as soon as possible, eat together, sleep together, and have some fun.

"Alright, alright." Lexington smiled indulgently at Saratoga, then said to Little White, "Little White, let's go back to the naval base first, and talk as we go."

"Okay, sure." Xiaobai nodded, then looked around with some confusion. "Uh... but Lexington, this place should be quite a distance from the naval base, right? And it doesn't seem to be a necessary route to the naval base. Why did you use your carrier-based aircraft to lure us here?"

"Want to know?" Lexington kept everyone in suspense.

"Mmm." Little White nodded honestly.

"..." Lexington looked at the super-sized Yamato.

Xiao Bai followed Lexington's gaze and suddenly froze.

In Xiaobai's eyes, the quiet and obedient Chaoda was surrounded by a dark and dense aura of the deep sea, like clouds billowing out.

Since arriving at the surface, Xiaobai has spent the entire day with Mega Yamato, and has unknowingly forgotten that Mega Yamato is currently in its Deep Sea Dean form with its earrings off. If Mega Yamato in this form were to follow Xiaobai into the gates of the newbie naval base—and were caught by something along the way, it would be quite difficult to explain.

"Oh right! Hurry, hurry... Chao Da and you, put on the ring quickly..." Xiao Bai awkwardly called out to Chao Da.

Chao Da was stunned. Seeing Xiao Bai's nervous expression, she realized her own state and hurriedly took out Xiao Bai's ring from her pocket and put it on her hand in a panic.

As the silver ring was slipped onto the oversized and slender fingers, the lingering black aura surrounding the oversized figure gradually faded away and finally disappeared.

Chao Dahe looked at the ring on her finger, breathed a sigh of relief, lowered her hand, and looked up.

"Admiral, good... hiss!" Just as Chao Dahe was about to say something to Xiaobai, he looked up and saw Saratoga pouting, staring at him with an open look of envy, jealousy and hatred. Chao Dahe was so frightened that he swallowed the rest of his words.

Super Big was so frightened that her face turned pale. She couldn't help but take two steps back, looking at Saratoga with some confusion.

"Huh? Super Yamato, what's wrong?" Little White didn't seem to notice Saratoga's gaze. She just looked up at Super Yamato and asked curiously, "Uh... are you feeling unwell after your deep-sea aura was blocked? Why does your face suddenly look so pale..."

"No, no..." Chao Dahe quickly shook his head.

"Super Yamato, this is Saratoga. She's Shiro's ship girl and a good friend. She often visits Shiro's house. You've probably met her a few times, right?" Lexington smiled slightly, stepped forward, gently patted Saratoga's head, and spoke to Super Yamato in a gentle tone.

"Hmm..." Chao Da nodded.

“Gaga, say hello,” Lexington said to Saratoga.

“Hello.” Saratoga extended his hand to the oversized and honest one.

“…Hello.” Super Yamato stared at Saratoga’s hand for a moment, then tentatively reached out and shook Saratoga’s hand.

"..." Saratoga grasped Super Yamato's hand in return and said earnestly to Super Yamato, "I won't let you get ahead of me!"

"?"

“I won’t let you get ahead of me!” Saratoga said to Super Yamato with her soft fingers wrapped around Super Yamato’s fingers, making it clear.

"??" Chao Da was dumbfounded.

what?

What comes before?

Chapter 1896 A Journey of a Thousand Miles

After returning to the newbie naval base, Xiaobai explained to Lexington and Saratoga about himself, the Colossus, and returning to human society.

"Oh...so, so you actually returned to the human city yesterday, Xiaobai?" Lexington asked Xiaobai in surprise after hearing her words.

"Yeah, that's right." Xiaobai nodded with a sigh. "Because we didn't leave a mark at the newbie naval base, Chao Yamato and I had to travel all the way back from Ella's house on foot."

"The mark is left now, right?"

"Yes, it should have been prepared already." Xiaobai nodded and turned to look at Chao Yamato behind him.

Super Yamato and Saratoga were following behind Whitebeard and Lexington. Saratoga had her hands behind her back and was staring at Super Yamato's face warily. Super Yamato, under Saratoga's intense gaze, lowered her head innocently, as if she were guilty and didn't dare to look at Saratoga at all.

"Gaga, stop staring at her like that, it'll make her feel awkward," Lexington said to Saratoga.

"Oh!" Saratoga withdrew his gaze, quickened his pace, and walked to Lexington's side, taking Lexington's arm in his.

With Saratoga no longer watching, Super Yamato finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Super Yamato," Shiro called out to Super Yamato.

"Admiral?" Chao Dahe looked up.

"Have you left the marker at the newbie naval base?" Xiaobai asked.

"Yes, it's all set up." Chao Dahe nodded and said to Xiao Bai, "We can teleport back anytime."

"That's good." Xiaobai nodded with a smile, then looked at Lexington, "Lexington, let's go to the resource warehouse first."

“Okay.” Lexington smiled slightly.

The resource warehouse of the newbie naval base is located in a corner of the naval base. From the outside, it looks like a large warehouse that resembles a tall tower. Led by Lexington, Shiro pulled Yamato and walked into the warehouse together.

The resource warehouse in the newbie garrison is incredibly large, with various resources piled up like a junkyard, forming several enormous, unreachable mountains.

The giant crane looked up, staring blankly at the resource inventory of the newbie garrison.

"many……"

"Is that a lot?" Xiaobai explained to Chaoda in a friendly manner, "These are just a drop in the ocean. Actually, there is more stock in the resource warehouse. What's piled up on top is just a small amount of resources for daily use, like pocket money."

"There's an underground area?"

"Yes, there are." Xiaobai said, glancing thoughtfully at the resource warehouse floor. "I don't know the specifics, but roughly... everything within a few hundred meters underground is within our resource storage area, right?"

"..." Super Yamato.

"Actually, about 90% of the resources are stored at the Admiral's Headquarters. After all, with so many resources, not to mention the space they occupy, the daily maintenance costs alone are considerable. So, to save trouble, we store about 90% of the resources at the Admiral's Headquarters and entrust them with their management," Lexington said to Super Yamato.

"So... these are only one-tenth?"

"Yes. That's about right." Lexington said calmly, "After all, resources are only as good as enough."

"..." Super Yamato.

The resources at the newbie naval base included loose fuel and ammunition that could be replenished instantly, as well as pre-packaged fuel barrels and ammunition boxes for easy transport. Lexington led Shiro and Super Yamato to the place where the pre-packaged resources were stored, and Super Yamato opened the Dark Vortex and threw a large amount of pre-packaged resources into it.

The pitch-black vortex was like a bottomless pit, mercilessly devouring the resources of the novice garrison. This process lasted for more than an hour before it ended.

"That's about enough." Xiaobai breathed a sigh of relief and said to Lexington with a relaxed expression, "These resources are enough for Bismarck and Akagi to fight freely for several more days in the eighth chapter event."

"Well, you can come back anytime anyway, so there's no rush to take too many resources. Taking a little to tide you over for later arrangements is fine," Lexington replied with a smile. "Now that we've replenished our resources, shall we go get some food?"

"Sure, the cafeteria?"

"Sure, it's just the right time. Reputation should be in the cafeteria too. It'll be good to go say hello to her."

"I wonder what kind of expression Reputation will have when they see me."

"She'll probably be shocked."

Lexington and Little White talked as they walked toward the door of the resource warehouse.

Before leaving, Chao Dahe looked up at the mountain of resources piled up in front of him.

After a full hour of relentless moving, the resource mountain standing before the giant hadn't shrunk in size at all... and this was still less than a fraction of all the resources the newbie naval base possessed.

Although ship girls are always at a disadvantage in terms of resource consumption compared to deep-sea amphibious ships, if the resources are as plentiful as those of a newbie naval base... it seems that the problem of resource consumption is no longer an issue.

Super Large and emotionally moved, they followed in Xiaobai's footsteps.

After leaving the resource warehouse, Xiaobai and his group first went to the cafeteria and met with Shengwang, who was working as the head chef there.

When she first saw Whitebeard, Renown thought her eyes were playing tricks on her. She stood there at the rice serving window for a long time, staring at Whitebeard in front of her, until Lexington explained why Whitebeard was there. Only then did Renown realize what was going on.
