Anime Crossover: Post-Apocalyptic Base, Starting with Summoning Ship Girls

The previous bounties haven't been settled yet, the Navy still owes the Royal Family money, and now Rōjin has captured even more pirates.

"Many people don't even have a bounty. Why don't we leave these people to the Guardian Knight to deal with?"

The swordswoman gave a wry smile, then narrowed her eyes.

She noticed a familiar aura emanating from Luo Zhen.

"He was killed? Just a moment ago..."

The swordswoman's hand rested on the hilt of her sword; she almost drew her weapon.

But it was just an illusion, and she soon realized what it meant.

"Mr. Luo Zhen, please don't joke like that."

She pouted and started complaining to Luo Zhen.

"And... why has your swordsmanship reached such a high level?"

Just a moment ago, Luo Zhen unleashed "Consciousness Slash" at her.

This is a unique application he came up with by combining Conqueror's Haki with swordsmanship, inspired by Miyamoto Musashi from the Baki series.

"Is a sword such an inconvenient thing?"

Even without a sword, Luo Zhen can still kill.

The swordswoman was very perceptive and noticed Luo Zhen's "slash," but that was all; she had no way to retaliate.

The skill gap between the two sides has widened considerably.

"It's just a very ordinary level. I'll be leaving now if there's nothing else. Your Navy should carefully examine these guys."

"Leave the people you don't need to me. Mining needs manpower, and they can come in handy."

Luo Zhen bid her farewell and then returned to the Shadow Kingdom.

Of course, this matter will not end so easily; Luo Zhen has further plans.

However, this is not the time to make a move.

Luo Zhen left, and the Navy escorted the pirates away, arriving at the nearest base.

Vice Admiral Vergo interrogated several pirates, needing to know the details of the battle.

Luo Zhen's large ship was right in front of everyone, and he naturally saw it, but he needed to know the ship's specific combat performance.

"Bellamy...though somewhat foolish, is still a decent piece. We can release him when the opportunity arises."

After Vergo's interrogation ended, he quickly left the naval base.

He had to pass the relevant intelligence to Doflamingo; he had already taken out the Den Den Mushi used for secret communication.

"It's best to use this thing sparingly, since concealing one's identity is the most important thing."

"But the situation is urgent now, so we should summarize it as soon as possible."

The Den Den Mushi connected quickly, and Vergo was about to speak when his body suddenly stiffened.

"Doflamingo, is it? You nonsensical clown."

Luo Zhen stood behind Vergo, his consciousness slash already unleashed, which was the primary reason why Vergo's body was stiff.

"They clearly sensed it with their Observation Haki, but... they didn't attack? Was it just a feint?"

Vergo's body was now covered in black, his entire body enveloped in Armament Haki.

The Mind Slash can be used to interfere with the enemy, causing them to misjudge their Observation Haki.

A sudden slash appeared on his thigh, but before he could react, Luo Zhen punched him in the head.

This attack reminded Vergo of the Sea Train in Water Seven; its impact was just as fierce, even surpassing that of the Sea Train.

Luo Zhen pressed his head down onto the sand.

"..."

Doflamingo fell silent for a moment, knowing that the situation had changed.

"You think you can just leave after messing with me? Alabasta is my partner's country, and I've got this place under my protection."

"If you dare to invade, we will make sure you suffer a crushing defeat."

A dazzling white light erupted from Luo Zhen's hand, and Vergo's head had vanished.

Chapter Sixty-Eight: New Partners in Baltimore

On the other end of the Den Den Mushi, Doflamingo didn't say a word, but Rozen knew that the guy's face was so dark it looked like it was covered in Armament Haki.

He silently hung up the call. Luo Zhen knew that the guy would launch a targeted retaliatory operation against the Kingdom of Alabasta afterward, but Luo Zhen didn't care.

"I'm quite looking forward to some skilled players coming over, so that we can have a lot of fun in the battles."

Luo Zhen looked at Vergo's headless corpse, gently raised his hand, and the yellow sand began to wriggle, enveloping it.

After forming a bond with Vivi, he gained the ability to control sand.

That's not quite the right way to put it; it should be said that everything in the country was responding to him.

Sand is the "core" of the Alabasta kingdom, and every grain of sand responds to its call; it's that simple.

After disposing of Vergo's body, Luo Zhen grabbed a stick.

This is Vergo's weapon, and he is trying to use the Left Hand of God to analyze the techniques attached to it.

The technique of using the stick is not important; Luo Zhen felt that having some understanding was enough. What he wanted most was the skill of using Armament Haki.

Vergo often imbues his staff with a powerful aura, so related techniques naturally exist.

Luo Zhen gained relevant experience from this, but if he wants to master Armament Haki, he will probably have to study it in more depth.

"Now that I've got all three types of Haki, I can train them slowly."

Luo Zhen's expression remained calm as his figure gradually dissipated into the black aura, and he returned to the Shadow Kingdom.

"Commander, it seems like it's been a long time since I've summoned any ship girls. My luck is really bad."

The matter has been resolved, but the company's gaze remains somewhat resentful.

When it came to the battle, the commander personally took charge, without even bothering to call her up.

She came here to help Luo Zhen defeat the enemy, but who would have thought that Luo Zhen's fighting spirit far surpassed hers?

As soon as the Shadow Legion reports the appearance of a powerful enemy, before Enterprise can even say whether to set off, Luo Zhen takes the lead and rushes over.

By the time the company made its move, it found the battle was already over.

The commander should have just stayed behind them and given instructions, so it's really strange that he charged straight at them like this.

But Luo Zhen also had his reasons. As the leader, he possessed formidable strength. If he couldn't take the lead and charge ahead, how could the ship girls follow him?

In fact, as long as Luo Zhen speaks, none of the ship girls would resist him.

"Commander, it seems you need some luck. Let me lend you my luck."

The company said with a smile, and then put his arm around Luo Zhen's arm.

Let's not worry about the fighting for now. If the commander likes to do it this way, then let him do it.

"It's about time, let's begin today's lottery."

Businesses are saying they need to rely on luck, so hopefully this time they'll get something good out of it.

Luo Zhen made a series of moves, first targeting the regular pool and the League of Legends item pool.

A series of items fell to the ground; they were all kinds of equipment. Pinghai and Ninghai helped to tidy them up.

Although there are quite a few pieces of equipment, combined with the items I drew before, I should be able to synthesize some big items.

But Luo Zhen still felt somewhat disappointed, and a dim light appeared in his eyes.

"Commander, there's something good here, take a look at this."

Ning Hai grabbed a large stack of papers and slammed them down in front of Luo Zhen.

"Building a defensive tower from scratch?"

Luo Zhen looked at the words on the paper. Although they were unfamiliar, the meaning of the words came to mind, and he read them aloud.

Defense towers, those are really good things.

If we can surround the port area with defensive towers, those damned sea monsters probably won't be able to get close.

When playing games, heroes need to destroy towers, and the damage from the towers is quite astonishing.

However, in reality, compared to the backgrounds and identities of those heroes, the strength of the turrets seems rather insignificant.

However, Luo Zhen still felt that this was a good gain, after all, it was a skill that started from scratch.

Once we grasp the inner power and conduct an in-depth analysis, as ship girl-related technologies continue to develop, the level of defense towers will also improve. (The last part, "梅有咏想没我空你林在在没呢...", is a nonsensical string of characters and doesn't translate directly.)

It seems quite interesting that Luo Zhen has already started considering installing defensive towers on the ships he's building.

"Then I'll memorize these techniques and see if I can project them."

“I figured that since defensive towers can be ‘complementary’ to ships, they should be easy to project.”

The projection ability has some limitations; Luo Zhen would have no trouble projecting a projectile onto a ship.

If he directly projects the defensive tower, it will consume more energy.

But none of that mattered. After some thought, he began to loosen the so-called "restrictions."

If he thinks it is, then he can do it; and he genuinely believes that this is something that can be done easily and naturally.

After all, he really intended to install the defensive towers onto the ship in a welding-like manner.

"The anti-aircraft guns are quite good, but the defensive towers also seem to have their merits."

"Moreover, defensive towers... are also 'weapons,' right? God's Left Hand, you shall take control of all of this."

Luo Zhen's eyes widened. He felt it was possible, and his thoughts began to wander, breaking through many limitations in an instant.

After that, he only needs to thoroughly understand the relevant technologies of the defensive tower.

"Now, here comes the main event. I have a feeling that a brand new partner will appear this time."

Luo Zhen grabbed the company's hand and quickly threw the ten-man team away.

A dazzling light shone and coalesced into a human form, where a tall, slender woman stood perfectly upright in front of Luo Zhen.

Her short hair made her look dashing, and she wore a confident smile.

"Hello, Commander, please take care of me from now on."

The Eagle Union ship girl Baltimore has arrived to report for duty.

Luo Zhen's gaze, however, fell on her flat stomach, the subtle lines of which were captivating.

Her breasts weren't exaggeratedly large, but they were plump and swayed slightly with her movements.

"Commander? What's wrong?"

Baltimore tilted her head, a look of confusion appearing on the handsome older sister's face.

"You and the commander are of one mind, don't you know what he's thinking?"

Enterprise, a ship girl from the same Eagle Union faction, did not display much aggression.

"I felt it wasn't right to eavesdrop on the commander's thoughts, so I turned it off."

Baltimore said, crossing his arms with a nonchalant expression.

It can't actually be turned off, but Baltimore has its attention focused elsewhere, so it's temporarily ignoring it.

But the company's words stirred something within her, and she thus gained access to Luo Zhen's true feelings.

Luo Zhen wanted to lick her lower abdomen.

"Commander, you..."

Baltimore blushed, her full breasts heaving, and the sharp look in her eyes softened instantly.

She used to be a cool and confident older sister, but now she's acting all shy and demure. The contrast between her past and present is truly captivating.

"Please do as you wish. If this is what the Commander wants, I... don't mind, because you are the Commander."
