Chapter 934: Chapter 927: Battle Plan

Even though the modernized helicopter successfully kept up with Kusanagi Ritsuko’s car, it was obvious that the children of the Sixth Destroyer Fleet couldn’t rely on their short legs to catch up on foot.

However, Akatsuki and the others’ goal in tailing Kusanagi Ritsuko was rely to gather intelligence, so keeping pace wasn’t essential. As Rai piloted the helicopter to continue tracking Kusanagi Ritsuko, the four little girls simply followed unhurriedly by taking buses and subways.

Rai held an operating console resembling a model remote control, complete with a small screen displaying the helicopter’s feed. At this mont, the footage showed Kusanagi Ritsuko’s van stopping in front of an unfinished building.

“They’ve stopped!” Rai exclaid upon seeing the scene, quickly shouting to alert the others. Her three sisters rushed over to peer at the screen on the console.

“Rai, well done! The newly equipped helicopter is indeed very useful!” Akatsuki praised Rai, maintaining her composure as the eldest and flagship sister. She asked Rai, “Where are they, and how far are they from us?”

Hearing Akatsuki’s praise, Rai flashed a proud smile as she deftly operated the console and replied, “They’re about five kiloters away, and we can take a nearby bus to get there.”

“This must be the enemy’s base! If we attack here and show them our power, they’ll surely back off as the commander predicted!” Akatsuki, upon learning the location wasn’t far, grew excited and declared to her sisters, “Let’s head there imdiately! Sixth Destroyer Fleet, comnce operation!”

“Oh!” The other three joined Akatsuki in an excited cheer, and together the quartet dashed toward the bus station.

Because it was close by, the bus ride only lasted a few stops before delivering the four little mbers of the Sixth Destroyer Fleet to the location.

Akatsuki stopped a raring-to-go Rai, telling her, “We can’t just charge straight in. What if the enemy has laid an ambush? We need to scout the area first!”

“Akatsuki, as expected, you’re so dependable!” Rai, halted in her tracks, complinted Akatsuki. She then resud controlling the helicopter with her operating console, sending it on a reconnaissance flight around the unfinished building to gather intelligence.

However, it was clear that Kusanagi Ritsuko and her rcenary companions weren’t amateurs. This place was not their base, as Akatsuki had believed, but a trap they had deliberately set to lure their trackers in.

Inside the unfinished building, Kusanagi Ritsuko and the man from earlier had set up their ambush, waiting like hunters ready to pounce on their prey.

What they hadn’t anticipated, however, was that the so-called pursuers were not the Public Security Bureau agents they had expected but rather four newly modernized ship-girls eager to prove themselves in action.

While they waited for their trackers to arrive, Rai had already spotted them using the helicopter’s thermal imaging system.

“Eh? Why are there only two people inside?” Dian asked in confusion, staring at the screen showing only two thermal signatures within the building.

“It’s likely a trap,” Hibiki analyzed coolly, observing the two figures hiding in obvious spots on the screen. “They want to lure us into an ambush.”

“What? How cunning of them!” Akatsuki, realizing her earlier mistake, felt a little awkward. However, now wasn’t the ti for pride. She turned to the most reliable-looking Hibiki and asked, “Hibiki, what do you think we should do now?”

After contemplating for a mont, Hibiki answered, “If the enemy has set a trap, we’ll simply destroy it.”

With that, Hibiki summoned her ship equipnt, deploying a missile launcher similar to Rai’s, preparing to fire at the unfinished building.

Having served in Russia as a reparation ship after the war, Hibiki had adopted a straightforward and brutish combat style characteristic of the Russians, opting for the simplest and most direct solution.

Seeing this, Akatsuki quickly restrained Hibiki and shouted, “Hibiki, what are you doing? You can’t fire missiles in the city! That would cause huge problems!”

Compared to Hibiki’s straightforward approach, Akatsuki clearly understood the consequences of using missiles in an urban environnt.

“It’s the most effective solution. Destroy the building with the missile and bury the enemy along with it,” Hibiki replied firmly, still intent on firing despite Akatsuki’s hold.

But Akatsuki vehently retorted, “No, you can’t! The commander said we can’t harm anyone! We need to make them retreat, not eliminate them directly!”

Hearing this, Hibiki finally gave up her plan to destroy the building with missiles and withdrew her missile launcher.

“Then what should we do now?” Dian timidly asked, her voice tinged with fear after Hibiki’s drastic idea of using missiles left her shaken.

“Let’s charge in and give those two a good beating! The commander only said not to harm them, not that we couldn’t rough them up a bit. If we teach them a lesson, they’ll definitely back off!” Rai suggested, rolling up her sleeves and grabbing the anchor she had slung at her waist, twirling it a few tis as if ready to puml soone with her cherished weapon.

“Well… fine, we’ll do that. But no harming them!” Akatsuki hesitated montarily before finally agreeing to Rai’s proposal. “Everyone, stow your ship equipnt. Using it makes it too easy to accidentally cause serious injuries!”

With Akatsuki’s approval, Rai cheered and promptly recalled the helicopter that had been so helpful, then put away her ship equipnt, leaving only her anchor in hand.

The other three didn’t have such convenient personal weapons, but Dian hugged a torpedo, seemingly intending to wield it like a club.

Seeing this, Akatsuki could only sigh and remind them again not to harm anyone before leading her three sisters into the unfinished building.

Kusanagi Ritsuko and the man quickly noticed the four intruding little girls. However, seeing the four diminutive figures, the two exchanged bewildered looks, still unsure why the anticipated Public Security Bureau agents hadn’t shown up but instead these four children.

Before they could ponder further, the four girls had already charged up the stairs of the unfinished building, heading straight for them.

Faced with the fierce onslaught of the Sixth Destroyer Fleet, both Kusanagi Ritsuko and the man couldn’t help but feel a mix of amusent and disbelief. But when Rai’s anchor and Dian’s torpedo ca swinging at them, they broke out in cold sweats, instantly realizing these girls were far deadlier than they had appeared.
