Azur Lane: The Tragic Admiral’s Azur Life

"There's no need to be so serious."

Yang Sikang said helplessly.

"This is my personal respect for you."

Nagato shook his head and said, and Jiang Feng also came back at this time.

"Nagato-sama, Miss Javelin has already met with Mutsu-sama."

Nagato nodded, Jiang Feng glanced at Yang Sikang and returned to her previous alert position.

"Jiang Feng has always been a little concerned about your previous affairs, I'm sorry."

"Does the previous incident refer to my previous incident or the incident where I killed people on Chongying's side?"

"It refers to the latter. Although those people may indeed be somewhat guilty..."

"For some reasons that have not yet been fully determined, it would be a bit too cruel to just kill them all, right?"

Nagato didn't expect Yang Sikang to speak so straightforwardly, so he hesitated slightly and nodded to confirm his statement.

Yang Sikang smiled and said nonchalantly:

"Objectively speaking, it may be a bit cruel, but I have to say that it is very effective, isn't it? Whether the thoughts in those people's minds are good or bad for Shigesakura, you should know it well, Nagato, right?"

Nagato didn't answer, but silence itself was an answer.

Yang Sikang shook his head:

"I have no intention of justifying my actions, but if the lives of those who are thinking about how to push themselves to a dead end can save innocent people who hope for peace from suffering misfortune, I think it is very cost-effective. things.”

Yang Sikang's answer once again surprised Nagato. She looked at Yang Sikang in surprise, and Yang Sikang showed a plain smile, took a sip of tea and said:

"Those who don't listen and want to die can just let them die. But in fact, the reason why they can be so radical is because they know very well that their own safety is guaranteed, and it is the soldiers who die, not them. , so they don’t care.”

"But there is no reason for soldiers and civilians to die for them, so it's better to let them die cleanly first."

Yang Sikang put down his tea cup and added:

"I don't want to come to Chong Ying to fight with you next time."

Nagato sighed and did not answer.

Seeing that the atmosphere was getting a little dull, Belfast added some tea to Nagato at this time.

"Nagato, the root of avoiding sacrifice lies in decision-making. A wrong decision will affect a wider range than the casualties caused by ten terrorist attacks. And hesitation is an absolute taboo during decision-making."

Yang Sikang looked at Nagato and said, and Nagato hesitated for a moment and sighed:

"I also know this truth. It's just that in order to achieve a certain goal, other aspects must be sacrificed..."

Yang Sikang frowned.

Nagato is kind, but her kindness is not entirely a good thing for her position.

If you worry too much and want too much, you will end up with nothing. Instead, you will get nothing.

Yang Sikang himself experienced such a result, and the cost for him to wake up was very high.

From the perspective of the game plot, Nagato is also the same in this regard.

Even with the birth of the New Sakura Alliance and the internal division of Sakura into two, in fact, the New Sakura Alliance headed by Nagato has not done much that is of practical significance in his opinion.

The problem of indecisiveness stems from Nagato's kindness, but it also makes Shigesakura, whom she wants to protect, go further and further down the road of madness, and makes Akagi easily lose control under the instigation of Siren.

Although Akagi looked like a winner who had successfully deceived Nagato, the others, and the Siren, as a bystander, Yang Sikang knew that the result was far from simple.

But it is neither practical nor reasonable to change Nagato. As a kind person, let her stay kind.

"Now that we're talking about these things, why don't we just talk about them. Nagato, do you think the situation on your side is the same as the situation you want before I come to Chongsakura?"

"This, this..."

"It's okay if you don't have a good answer. I'll help you."

"Although I was invited by Akagi, the things I encountered when I came to Chongsakura were basically the work of Akagi. After that, during the operations arranged by Akagi, we encountered the sirens. The reason for the ambush must be known to you.”

Nagato nodded slightly, and Yang Sikang continued:

"In order to protect your country, it doesn't matter even if you use any means. To be honest, I don't hate this concept. After all, I am almost that kind of person now. But I also know the problems that Shige Sakura faces, so I don't care about these things. "

"However, these are all choices made in pursuit of possibilities based on the lack of options. Whether it is leaving Azur Lane and joining the Red Axis, or seeking cooperation with the Sirens, these should be means. It should only be a means.”

When Yang Sikang said this, he chuckled:

"But have you ever thought about it, if you were a siren, how could you get Akagi, the person in power who is now Shigesakura's face, to side with you in the simplest and most effective way? Nagato?"

Nagato opened his mouth silently, but still did not answer.

But the topic has reached this point, how could Yang Sikang stop here?

"The answer is, Amagi. Just like this shrine, like this tree... and the one buried under it."

"You actually know this..."

"I know a lot of things, and maybe a lot more than you imagine, Nagato."

Yang Sikang interrupted Nagato's words and said a little more seriously:

“If you can’t find a solution internally, how about trying other options?”

Nagato is not stupid, she knows what Yang Sikang is talking about.

"Didn't you already reach an agreement with Akagi?"

"But I can't stay here forever, just like now. I will return to White Eagle in a month, and it is not certain when Amagi will be awakened, or when I will come to Chongying next time."

"Then what's the use of saying all this?"

"Of course it's useful. At least when I need to come here, I have to have a legitimate reason to save me some trouble, right? I'm an outsider, and helping and taking advantage of others are completely different."

Nagato was stunned for a moment:

"Do you think Akagi might do something harmful to Shige Sakura?"

"Not necessarily, but it is indeed possible. That's why I came to Chongying at this time, and because I'm here, you have a choice now."

"Although you do have great potential, and I am sure of your belief. But I'm sorry..."

Nagato took a deep breath to adjust his emotions and shook his head:

"The problems I face are not something you can solve..."

"But can you and the Great Sage really solve those things in the barrier?"

Nagato sighed:

"Sure enough, you even know this."

"There are no absolutes in the world, Nagato. I can come to this world from another world, and I can also know these things that not many of you know. This is enough to prove a lot of problems, right? Trying may not necessarily pay off. You wish, but if you don’t try, won’t there be no room for change?”

Nagato looked at Yang Sikang, then at the three ship girls on both sides of him, and sighed helplessly.

"I see, your visit today is actually for these things, right?"

"Yes, but that's not entirely true. The joke I said earlier wasn't entirely a joke either, Nagato."

"I came here specifically to visit today, and I also came here for you. But I may want more than all of you think..."

Looking into Nagato's eyes, Yang Sikang showed his ambitious side in front of Nagato for the first time:

"What I want is not a small issue like First Air Battle, BIG 7, or a few ship girls. I want all the ship girls in the entire Chongsakura. Sooner or later."

Nagato's pupils shrank suddenly and he grabbed the hem of his clothes.

"But isn't your former ship girl also active in this world?"

"Yes, but I'm not going to give up on either side."

Yang Sikang grinned:

"This time, I want it all!"
