The time-based admiral of KanColle

"Elizabeth's disposition is as lovely as ever."

This time, Yaxu finally couldn't help but smile and called Elizabeth's name. After all, in one reincarnation, he lived directly in the royal family.

Well, in that reincarnation he was honored to be Elizabeth's husband and a part-time royal guard, although he just played with Elizabeth all day and didn't have to do anything.

"Come to think of it, I am really a scumbag..."

Thinking of this, Yaxu looked at the floating clouds in the sky and sighed softly.

From the seventh reincarnation to the nineteenth reincarnation now, including every reincarnation, he has become the husband twenty times, and the number of experienced people is eighteen.

I remember that he hadn't thought about these things at first, but because of Akagi and Kaga's magical operations, he fell in love with them directly.

At the same time, he was also aware of Akagi's morbid possessiveness caused by insecurity, and Kaga's cold personality that valued strength above all else.

In order to solve the problems of Akagi and Kaga, he ended the stuck seventh reincarnation, and in the eighth reincarnation he packed himself up and sent himself to Sakura Empire.

He originally planned to continue as Akagi's husband, but due to various accidents in Eisenza, he didn't want to evade responsibility and ended up spending four reincarnations in Eisenza.

In the end, filled with shameful guilt and self-loathing, he chose to temporarily avoid communicating with the Sakura Empire in his subsequent reincarnations.

He, a love novice who knew nothing at the beginning, became a real "playboy" after 18 experiences.

So, where to go now?

Back to the Birch Road intersection bordering the beach, listening to the echoing sound of the waves, Yaxu hesitated.

According to the established plan, his goal for the next three weeks is to unite all the camps in this garrison and then deal with the next Siren invasion.

In the previous reincarnations, in order to avoid memory errors, he had to go back from time to time to use various notes to record the details of the memory and reminders, and constantly draw the approximate locations of the Sirens' invasion in various directions and the distribution of ship types based on his memory.

Although he spent a lot of time strengthening his memory in each reincarnation, there were still many variables.

As the number of reincarnations increased, his action patterns became more and more rigid for the sake of conservativeness.

But it is different now.

Yaxu looked at his palm, then stretched out his hand and made a save sign with mixed feelings. After his ability improved, the error tolerance rate was no longer a problem he worried about, which meant that he could reserve a lot of free time for himself.

Coming out of the admiral's mansion, you face the sea in front, the left side leads to the royal family, and the left further leads to the Sakura Empire.

So, is it left or right now?

Yaxu clenched his palms and slowly walked to the left.

Chapter 13: The beginning of the Sakura Empire

Half leaning against the hill, different from the neatly distributed royal dormitory area, the outer side of the Sakura Empire dormitory area is planted with blooming cherry trees all over the mountain. A long mahogany plank road leads upward along the mountain path. Through the white gaps between the cherry trees, you can see a tall torii gate above.

That was the Sakura Empire's shrine, and he didn't dare go up there now.

It was said that filth was gathered in his body, and the serving Sakura priestess seemed to be guarding something. He had never entered the tall Red and White Shrine.

Even during the period when his relationship with the Sakura Empire was at its best, he had never been there. Once, when he asked Akagi about it, he was specifically told that it was best not to bother.

Yaxu stood on the forked mahogany plank road, looked up at the conspicuous divine pillar on the top of the hill, and then walked in another direction.

The buildings of Sakura Empire are relatively scattered, and the direction he is heading to now is a kendo gym.

----

call out!call out!

The steady sound of breaking through the air echoed in the air. In the spacious kendo hall, on the dark brown wooden floor, a heroic ship girl was holding a wooden sword for practice and constantly slashing at the air.

"Tsk, are Atago and the others late again? Seriously..."

The complaining tone gave people a sense of stability. After practicing for a while, the ship girl put down the wooden sword in her hand, as if she noticed something, and looked back.

brush--

With the sound of the wooden door being pushed open, Yaxu walked in slowly. After seeing the sight on the opposite side, he stood up and saluted.

"Humanity?"

After hearing the surprised words, the other party raised her pretty head and walked forward.

She had a neat black ponytail tied with a bow, a flawless face and a pair of dark yellow eyes that exuded a smart aura. Her tight white military uniform set off her tall figure, and her black stockings showed directly from her short white military skirt.

Her plump thighs were tense, obviously from regular exercise.

Kaohsiung (Ao), a heavy cruiser of the Sakura Empire, is a samurai who loves kendo and has a calm and self-disciplined personality.

Facing Kaohsiung's rising momentum, Yaxu quickly waved his hand and said, "Sorry to bother you, can we talk for a moment?"

Kaohsiung raised the wooden sword in his hand and said sternly to Yaxu: "Leave here, human, we have no intention of accepting your assignment."

"I'm not here to sell you something. To be more precise, I want to compete with you."

Yaxu said the surprising words frankly without any fear, and Kaohsiung frowned, looked up and down at Yaxu's thin body, and said in an increasingly cold tone: "Are you fooling me?"

After all, I haven’t exercised in this reincarnation yet.

Yaxu shook his head and stretched out his hand to ask, "Can you give me the wooden sword in your hand?"

……

After hesitating for a moment, Kaohsiung threw the wooden sword he was practicing with over to him. Yaxu caught it and weighed it, as if he was recalling something.

"excuse me."

Following these careful words, Yaxu lightly put on his slippers and walked into the kendo field. The delicate touch of the wooden floor made Yaxu feel a little nostalgic. He then raised his sword, stepped forward with his front foot, and took a stance with his knees slightly bent.

"What!?"

Kaohsiung frowned, his originally calm face showing ripples, and then he asked, "Where did you imitate this posture...?"

Of course, what shocked Kaohsiung was not how clever Yaxu's posture was. After all, it was just a personal habit, but... it was too similar to her habit.

Lean forward, hold the knife with both hands, left elbow outward, etc. -

"I learned it from... a certain ship girl."

After hearing what the other party said, Yaxu was silent for a moment, then he perked up and walked left and right to warm up while saying, "Well, please come on."

"By the way, if possible, let's make a bet."

Suddenly, Yaxu, who was ready, said calmly, and Kaohsiung couldn't help but clenched his fists and mocked: "Bet? Haha, you humans, you really are..."

"If I win, how about letting me practice here occasionally in the future?"

Accustomed to this, Yaxu added, "Of course, if I lose, I will stay away from here."

"You...are really weird..."

The unexpected answer made Kaohsiung's attitude relax a lot. After taking a few glances at the human's soul fluctuations and finding nothing wrong, Kaohsiung was a little confused, but he still drew out his real sword at his waist, of course, along with the bright black scabbard.

"Human, you don't look like you're passionate about this."

Looking at Yaxu who was trying his best to steady his unsteady steps, Kaohsiung could tell at a glance that the man in front of him didn't even have the most basic skills, and it seemed that he was just dabbling in this hobby.

In this way, even if she doesn't deploy her ship suit, she can kill the opponent in one move.

Looking at Kaohsiung who was losing interest, Yaxu said truthfully: "Well, it is true. At first, I just wanted to exercise my body. It is just a hobby after all. After all, there is more to life than just swords."

"Really? Then how do you want to compete?"

"You are knocked back, I win. I am knocked down, you win."

A more reasonable concession, but it was far from enough! After the rules were established, Kaohsiung's graceful body, which could not be covered by the tight military uniform, instantly tensed up, and she jumped back a distance to pose, giving each other a buffer space, which was also considered as tacit acceptance of this rule.

"Hoo~~~ Let's start."

boom!

As Yaxu started to move, the wooden floor immediately let out a mournful cry. A strong wind blew, and next to the fluttering white military skirt, a dark knife shadow slashed diagonally from bottom to top.

puff!

The sturdy wooden sword and its scabbard made muffled sounds, and the wooden sword in Yaxu's hand was quickly knocked aside by Kaohsiung. At this moment, Kaohsiung raised his other hand and grabbed Yaxu's collar.

However, Yaxu, who seemed to be prepared, also pressed Kaohsiung's hand with his other hand.

"Oh?"

Kaohsiung was a little surprised, but he reacted quickly, his flying ponytail dancing with a white bow tied on it, and then he gave a cool side kick.

boom!

Similarly, Yaxu, who had anticipated this, had already raised his right foot to block the kick aimed at his lower abdomen, but he still couldn't bear it and took several steps back.

"Whoo~~~"

As Yaxu sighed, Kaohsiung unexpectedly did not continue to pursue, but said with understanding: "Really? It seems that you have learned something from my same type of ship."

Whether it was the parrying technique, the posture, or the way of adjusting the center of gravity, they were all too similar to hers. There was only one explanation.

The same type of ship refers to ship girls with the same skills and accompanying memories. Although their thoughts and feelings may be different in different environments, their basic personalities are similar.

"Same type of ship?"

Yaxu neither admitted nor refuted, but once again raised the wooden sword in his hand and looked sharply at Kaohsiung in front of him.

----

The Eighth Reincarnation - Kendo Hall

After a whole month of hard work, Yaxu finally gave Akagi more so-called sense of security, and he officially became the husband of the Empire of Sakura Empire. Yaxu, who wanted to exercise his body, naturally joined this kendo gym.

After practicing for a long time, Yaxu started his first actual combat with Kaohsiung.

However, as soon as they met, when Yaxu, who was holding a wooden sword, was trying to block Kaohsiung's attack, Kaohsiung ruthlessly pulled his clothes over and threw him over his shoulder.

Boom!

Feeling the passionate collision between his body and the solid wooden floor, Yaxu lay there in pain for a while, then raised his head and said self-deprecatingly to Kaohsiung who was reaching out to him, "I didn't expect it to be a one-shot kill, Sister Kaohsiung."

"You are focusing too much on the sword. Are you really only able to swing the sword when you hold it? Instead of focusing on the position of the opponent's sword, you should focus on the opponent's body."

The strict Kaohsiung began to instruct without any consideration, then looked at the empty kendo hall and couldn't help but sighed: "Didn't Atago say that he would practice with me today?"

"Haha, because Atago-san went to enjoy the cherry blossoms with the destroyers."

After Yaxu took Kaohsiung's hand and stood up, he said seriously: "So, Sister Kaohsiung, why don't you go with us?"

"Me? Forget it. I won't have anything to say if I go."

Hearing Yaxu's suggestion, Kaohsiung quickly shook his head and retreated into the kendo hall with his sword in hand.

"Even if we don't talk, it's nice to look at the cherry blossoms with everyone, isn't it?"

Looking at Kaohsiung who turned back, Yaxu shook his head and said, "There's more to life than just swords, right?"

"No need."

With some distant words, Kaohsiung knelt down and sat in the center of the kendo hall, holding the sword and closing his eyes.

After watching for a while, Yaxu also sat cross-legged opposite.

"You...want to continue persuading me?"

"No, now that things have come to this, if I continue to persuade you, I will be ungrateful."

Kaohsiung slightly opened his eyes and secretly glanced at Yaxu who was sitting next to him, and asked in doubt: "Then you..."

"It's not much fun swinging a knife here alone, is it?"

Yaxu patted his face, picked up the wooden sword next to him and stood up: "Well, let's continue."

Since they have already settled down in Sakura Empire, although Akagi (Phoenix) said he doesn't mind, he still wants everyone here to get along more closely with each other.

Chapter 14: The Art of Interlacing

Kaohsiung, speed up.

The black scabbard looked like a stream of light, and coupled with Kaohsiung's occasional elbows and side kicks, Yaxu had no choice but to keep backing away to avoid the blows.

"no solution anymore."

Seeing that he was about to have no way out, Yaxu knew one thing clearly: even if ten of him were tied together, they would not be able to defeat Kaohsiung.

Facing the approaching Kaohsiung, Yaxu flipped his wrist and changed from holding the sword with both hands to holding it with one hand, then leaned back, stood sideways, and then thrust forward.

"!?"

Kaohsiung couldn't help but shrink his pupils again. Looking at this familiar posture, he swung his sword to stop Yaxu's sudden change of moves.

As the two swords crossed, Yaxu kept twisting his wrist, and the slender wooden blade suddenly wrapped around Kaohsiung's blade like a long snake, and then stabbed towards his shoulder.
