For the meantime in this dangerous and risky situation, while the Sakura enemy fleet has not arrived yet, I've decided to order Graf Spee to deploy the HVPIMS Shield System until the reinforcement flotilla arrives, in order to avoid any unnecessary damages or casualties and to give us more extra time to prepare putting up defenses and planning in-case the shields gets destroyed before the reinforcement flotilla doesn't arrive at the right time.
Graf Spee: Ja, Hauptmann! I will deploying ze HVPIMS Shield System right away near our base waters!
Me: Please, hurry up!
(Door closes and opens)
H-45 (2): Schwester! What do you plan in case the shield fails to resist and last against enemy gunfire before Kommandant's reinforcement arrives?
Me: Hmmm... I say, we put some strong barriers whole over our base as a secondary counter-defense before ze enemy Sakura shipgirl fleet reaches our base, and if zey managed to enter our base, we will commence our attack.
H-45 (2): No way! Zat's ris-
Me: Schwester! Did you forget?! Do you know how extremely strong we are right now? Do you know zat we can actually sink any ships who dares attacking us and due to ze strong defense armor with ze help of Siren technology and Kommandant, we are nearly impossible to be sunk! and plus! Sakura Empire is no match for us right now! and let's not always be ze defensive! Zis time, let's be ze offensive! Let's get our revenge to zose traitors!!
H-45 (2): O-Okay.... I certainly hope you know what you're thinking and doing, But I will do my best, if zey attack us Schwester!
Me: Mhm! Alright! Let's do zis!
(Graf Spee's POV)
I've started making a mark on ze sea to determine how large ze shield is going to be, so I did a whole turn around ze base waters until I completed a whole turn, and modified ze settings of the control tablet on which ze shield is under control on.
I've successfully deployed ze shield, but, before I go back to ze base, I've decided to observe ze arriving enemy Sakura fleet using a 500x Advanced Zoomable Binocular, which can see with anything zoomed in as far as 50,000 KM's away, thanks to Kommandant (Y/N)'s brilliant invention, I've been able to track zeir exact position, which is 124 KM away from our base. I better report zis to Hauptmann immediately.
(Rigging Deactivation sounds)
(Water splash sounds and jumping sounds)
Me: I better hurry now!
(Opens door)
Me: Hauptmann! (Salutes and Unsalutes) I've successfully deployed ze HVPIMS Shield System around our base!
H-45: Sehr Gut (Very Good), Graf Spee. Vielen Danke. (Thank you.)
Me: Also, Hauptmann! I've also tracked ze incoming attacking Sakura Empire fleet, zeir distance between zem and in our base is 124 KM's with a speed of around 30 - 39 kps, zey could arrive in next 5 hours.
H-45: Ah.. Vielen Danke, Graf Spee! Your observation was utmost critical information about my plan for countering ze incoming enemy fleet!
Me: Glad to hear zat, Hauptmann, but aren't we like super super strong now? Why do keep going defensive if we can actually sink almost any ship we shoot on and has way better statistics and technological advantage against Sakura Empire?
H-45: Ja.
I know, I do am aware of our technological advantage against Sakura Empire, but I want to start a slow, but sure revenge because one mistake I make could still possibly be our near end and doom like our what we did last time, so zat's why, I don't carelessly do offensive because, I want to observe zeir movements first, to determine and decide which strategy, plan and decision for offense and defense is ze best to ultimately get our revenge and to humiliatingly defeat Sakura Empire even with ze technological advantage against zem.
We shouldn't underestimate Sakura Empire just because we have ze most advanced technology and strength, zey might have been developing something far advanced somewhere out zere far from our visibility! So zat's why. Understand?
Me: Okay, Hauptmann, I understand.... First off, let me clarify what you just said...
So you're technically saying, We should observe ze enemy's movement first before we do literally anything?
H-45: Mhm.
Me: Okay.... You really are ze most cautious strategist on our squadron, Hauptmann.
H-45: Indeed, I know, So anyways, why don't we just wait while ze reinforcement flotilla has not arrived and start building ze secondary counter-defense barriers and prepare ourselves?
Me: Okay, Hauptmann, I am ready to attack and to deploy anytime you like!
H-45: Gut. (Good) Now, sit down here first.
(Sits down)
H-45: Whilst in ze moment of waiting, I should call Kommandant for ze next update of ze reinforcement flotilla's location.
Me: Okay, Hauptmann.
H-45: Schwester?
H-45 (2): Ja! Here's ze telephone!

2:45PM, January 3, 1955,
Akagi's POV,
Sakura Empire waters,
Sakura Enpire,
1st Aircraft Division,
4 hours before the attack:
I was right! The picture that just fell 2 days ago really predicted that something bad is going to happen!
In these kinds of situations, I am prepared to sacriface my life for Amagi-neesama, my sister, Kaga and Sakura Empire!
Kaga: Onee-sama..... That Nagato... She's still immature!
Me: Now... Now.... Kaga. You musn't speak like that to her, she knows what she's doing for the security of Sakura Empire's future and for everyone in our Empire.
Kaga: But Onee-sama! Isn't Ironblood already dead now?!?! How could you suspect if it was Ironblood's attack if they're already dead?!?!?
Me: No. Did you forget? We have lost Base 5A, and plus, they have managed to take our one of our strongest shipgirls deployed there, and I doubt, this is not even a single percent of what their actual true strength is.
Kaga: Onee-sama.....
(Fades)
Takao's POV,
Attack Flotilla 6,
112 KM's away from the new Ironblood base,
Sakura Empire territory,
Sakura Empire, Unknown,
This is it. This is the time I am certainly utmost afraid to happen.
Their revenge could be the downfall of Sakura Empire and everyone in the Empire.
This could be our end, But no matter how strong they are, I will still fight for Sakura Empire until the last drop of my blood and sweat!
My sword has been trained for a very long time, So I will not let Ironblood or anyone defeat Sakura Empire!
Atago: Hey... Takao, you're so tensed up, again!
Me: Huh?!? Atago?!
Atago: Here.... Is your shoulders tensed up?
Me: Yeah... A bit... Could you massage them for a bit..?
Atago: Yes! No problem! (:D)
Of course, I have my sister, Atago and others with me, So I won't be afraid to lose!
Atago: There, are you feeling a bit better now...?
Me: Of course! Thank you Atago! Since I am done thinking something else, would you let me return the favor?
Atago: Oh?! You've never done this to me anymore! Let me hug you!!
(Bearhug)
I think my sister's chest is a bit loo much large for her... But it's her charming point or at least what I describe for her....
Me: Okay... Could you let me go now?!
Atago: Ah! Sorry! I just couldn't belive you would do this after many times you resisted!
Me: I know.... Come on. Don't move a lot, or else I won't massage it.
Atago: Okay! (•W•)
(Fades)
This is it.
This the start of the downfall and the end of Sakura Empire and Azur Lane.
The once one called the "Weakest Independent Navy" nicknamed by Azur Lane, now became the most strongest and the most advanced navy in the world that even extremely far surpasses the whole Azur Lane in combat power even if the big three we're joined together and put up a fight.
Today, Sakura Empire and Azur Lane would count their remaining time to live and to exist and their loved ones.
As a great naval megapower shall stomp them and crush them into pieces, leaving nothing but countless bloods, regrets, bodies, anger, and sadness to Sakura Empire and Azur Lane.
Before I die within your command, I'd like to say something to you,
(Y/N).
You made the best decision for the whole world and for everyone that is alive today.
I'd like to be with your side one day If I didn't die under your hands.
