"And so! Yukikaze continued her search for a Naval Base, hoping to find the one that could give her warmth and reliance in her heart. End of story! So, Azuma, how was it?" Illustrious took a sip of black tea, slowly put it down, and spoke to Azuma with great contentment.
"Wow! That Yukikaze is amazing! She actually fought the Abyssal Princess so many times. All the other Ship Girls sank, but she didn't. She truly is a 'Miracle Destroyer'!" Azuma exclaimed.
"You're right, Yukikaze truly is the 'Miracle Destroyer'!" Yukikaze is so lucky; she always manages to dodge enemy attacks, and even when hit, they are always duds. However, the Admirals who take her on and the Ship Girls she escorts are never so fortunate.
But this story is based on a real person and real events! That Yukikaze is probably still searching for a Naval Base now, trying to get the Admiral there to sign the soul network contract with her.
Who knows who the next unlucky soul will be! Pitying that unlucky soul for one second! In any case, it definitely won't be Illustrious, because Illustrious's luck has always been excellent. So, Illustrious gloated silently over that unlucky soul... Meanwhile, far away at a Naval Base destroyed by the Abyssals, Yukikaze shook her head as she looked at the burning, smoke-filled Naval Base, feeling somewhat disappointed. She sighed, "It seems this isn't the warm and reliable Naval Base Yukikaze is looking for either."
Speaking of which, how many times has she looked for an Admiral in a Naval Base to sign the soul network contract now! Yukikaze didn't know; the number was too high, and her heart had become numb, making her too lazy to keep track.
"Let Yukikaze check the chart. Which Naval Base is next? Pacific Ocean Naval Base Number 250, named Illustrious Naval Base! I wonder if this Naval Base is the warm and reliable Naval Base Yukikaze is looking for? Yukikaze is truly looking forward to it!" Yukikaze looked at the chart, activated the rigging on her feet, and glided toward Illustrious Naval Base... "Alright, we've finally arrived." Illustrious saw the outline of Tianhai Island and whispered to Azuma.
"Is this Tianhai Island? It's so big, so modern, and so spectacular!" Azuma, gazing at the tall buildings on the island from afar, was stunned by the massive metropolis.
Tianhai Island is a colorful world, featuring the three major tourism elements: sunshine, seawater, and sand. It covers an area of 6,862 square kilometers and has a population of 800,000.
Illustrious drove her Main Ship into the island's harbor, then slowly walked down with Azuma. For some reason, a large crowd had gathered there, but Illustrious paid them no mind. Parking the Main Ship in the harbor required paying docking fees, so it was better to retract it.
The Main Ship transformed into countless cubic light particles and flew into Illustrious's body. After retracting the Main Ship into her body, she finally walked toward the center of the metropolis.
"Wow! Was that an Aircraft Carrier just now? It was huge! Although Ship Girls usually dock here, their hulls are usually smaller."
"It seems those two girls are Ship Girls. Understandable, only Ship Girls possess such peerless beauty. I wish I had one."
"Wake up! Time to get back to work! Stop staring. Such a stunner is not for you. Only Admirals in the Navy who possess the soul network can enjoy them."
After the gathered crowd discussed among themselves, they dispersed. What good was beauty if she wasn't theirs?
Azuma held onto Illustrious's arm as they shopped in the commercial district.
"Come on, Admiral! Let's check out this store!" Azuma pulled Illustrious into the shop in front of them, which was called Meow Meow Anime Clothing Store.
In the book *Azuma's Guide to Successful Dating*, there was a point stating that Admirals most loved seeing their favorite Ship Girls wear anime clothing for them. Therefore, Azuma wanted to buy some clothes here for Illustrious to see, intending to wear them and utterly enchant Illustrious.
Illustrious looked around the store and suddenly felt her eyes light up. What she saw was a huge selection of anime clothing: Sailor Uniforms, Suit School Uniforms, Maid Outfits, Sukumizu, bunny girl outfits, Kimonos, Miko Outfits, Cat Girl Outfits, Nurse Outfits, and Office OL Wear.
Wow! This place is practically a gentleman's paradise! If Azuma plans to buy clothes here, won't Illustrious be in for a feast for the eyes later?
"Welcome! Feel free to look around!" After saying this, the female manager buried her head in her phone. She was playing King's Glory and was about to reach Platinum—a crucial moment. Although she was slightly surprised by the beauty of the two girls, so what? She wasn't a man, and her game was more appealing.
What kind of service attitude does this female manager have! Illustrious was a little angry. We are customers! We are your God! Why such poor service?
If the female manager knew Illustrious's thoughts, she would surely scoff. Her shop's business was booming! Female customers were always coming to patronize it, saying they wanted to buy these clothes to show their boyfriends or husbands and drive them crazy.
There were even men who came in to patronize the store, though they looked a bit like Hideyoshi. When checking out, they always turned their heads away and stammered that they were buying them for their sister or girlfriend.
"Alright, Admiral, don't worry about that female manager! It's better if no one bothers us." Seeing Illustrious angry because of the manager's attitude, Azuma pulled Illustrious's arm and advised her.
"Fine! We can't let this female manager ruin our mood!" Illustrious thought this made sense and decided not to bother with the manager.
"Admiral, what do you think of this one?" Azuma asked Illustrious.
Illustrious looked at the outfit Azuma pointed to—wasn't it a Maid Outfit? Just thinking about Azuma wearing a Maid Outfit, sweetly and cutely calling her Master, and serving her with meticulous care, made her feel excited.
"I think this outfit is excellent. Please, you must wear it for me. I beg you." Illustrious gripped Azuma's delicate, fair hands and said excitedly.
"Hehe~ So the Admiral likes me in this outfit! No problem, wait here for me~" After saying that, Azuma took the clothes, pulled open the fitting room curtain, entered the store's fitting room, closed the curtain, and went to change.
Illustrious listened to the rustling sounds of Azuma taking off her clothes coming from the fitting room. Thinking about Azuma completely nude, revealing her graceful figure, ample bosom, voluptuous hips, and slender waist, Illustrious suddenly became excited again.
An Angel Little Illustrious and a Demon Little Illustrious suddenly appeared before Illustrious with a dong sound.
Angel Little Illustrious shook her Magic Wand and spoke to Illustrious with a sacred expression: "You are her Admiral! In your previous life, you were a boy. As a promising youth who developed comprehensively in morality, intelligence, and physique, how can you listen to a girl changing clothes and fantasize about her naked body? Quickly cover your ears and stop your internal lewd thoughts."
