Perhaps to complete that task in the message, the Purifiers flew all the way, already having been hit by shells several times.

Although its appearance was quite embarrassed, it was getting ever closer to that command ship.

But at this moment, the shipgirls near the command ship launched an attack together, including Tiancheng and Xinong, who had previously come down from the command ship.

And Xinong's attack was the strangest; as a carrier shipgirl she did not release her carrier aircraft, but instead a swarm of butterflies flew from her hand.

These butterflies were not the ordinary kind, but were shaped like butterflies made of crystalline blue light.

As the butterflies fluttered, accompanied by the Sakura Empire shipgirls' carrier aircraft taking off, they all surged toward the Purifiers.

The other shipgirls found the butterflies extraordinarily strange, but it was the battlefield, so no one dwelled on them, and they refocused on the ever-approaching Purifiers.

Machine guns and artillery fired simultaneously, trying to block the Purifiers' advance, and the fluttering blue butterflies also swarmed around them.

The incessantly fluttering blue butterflies obscured the Purifiers' forward vision; it could only extend its remaining hand to brush away the butterflies before it, but it did not expect that the moment its hand touched a butterfly, an explosion occurred.

The explosion of one butterfly triggered a chain reaction, causing all the butterflies around the Purifiers to explode; and these explosions were in no way weaker than those of aerial bombs.

This explosion enraged the Purifiers, because its only remaining arm was also blown off.

In an instant, the Purifiers' ship-equipment gun muzzle again emitted a purplish-red light, and just like before, the light was shot into the sky, a shower of light enveloping all the shipgirls.

Because they had seen such an attack before, this time the shipgirls were not hit by the light; however, the rising sea waves blocked their view, allowing the Purifiers to quickly approach the command ship.

And not far away, the several factions observing the battle all furrowed their brows, for they clearly knew Qin Ge was inside the command ship, and seeing the Purifiers' reckless momentum, they were sure it was targeting the command ship.

"Qin Ge commander is probably in danger!" Tierbici said.

"We are too far away, and the Purifiers are acting like madmen; don't they know that charging forward would be a dead end?" Hood said.

You guys, did you forget? Earlier we also defeated the Testers, but after a period of time, the Testers reappeared in the sea area.

I suspect they don't just sink and disappear like our shipgirls after being defeated; they seem to be reborn after a few months. Ou Gen Qin Wang said.

While several fleets were exchanging opinions, Qin Ge's shipgirls over here were especially anxious.

"The commander is in danger; we can't just wait—we must rush to support him, at the very least we need to rescue the commander." Guanghui said to everyone.

Yes.

With the shipgirls' responses, it was obvious that Guanghui's proposal was approved; all the shipgirls prepared to rush together with Guanghui toward the command ship.

But just then, Anshan turned around and said to everyone, "Don't worry, leave it to us."

"You?" Bisimai and Guanghui exchanged a puzzled look.

At that moment, the Prince of Wales waved his hand at them, saying, "Rest assured, leave it to them. Aren't you curious why they can be so confident?"

"This..." Guanghui was at a loss for words, while Bisimai and Ou Gen Qin Wang turned their gaze to Anshan, wanting to see what method they had.

Thus, Anshan turned her head to look at Long Spring beside her and said, "Get ready to aim!"

Long Spring nodded, "Anshan sister, how many?"

"Four!" Anshan nodded.

"Received!" Long Spring said, and on her body appeared a device that none of the shipgirls present recognized.

The device was square, with many holes, and it made Qin Ge's shipgirls instantly think of a weapon their commander had once drawn for them.

"Missiles!?" Ou Gen Qin Wang exclaimed in surprise.

"Oh?" Anshan turned her head back, "How do you know the name of this device? This should be a secretly developed weapon of Donghuang, and this is actually the first time it's being shown."

The Prince of Wales chuckled, "They indeed know; if you go ask Yixian, you'll understand why they know."

But now is not the time to discuss this; the Purifiers will arrive shortly, and in fact, let the other fleets witness the power of the missiles secretly developed by Donghuang.

"Mm." Anshan nodded, not bothering to ask further. The Prince of Wales said that because he was certain Yixian knew the situation, so later when we go back and ask him for details, we'll understand.

"Anshan sister, we're ready!" Long Spring beside her said to Anshan.

"Target the Purifiers, aim and then fire automatically!" Anshan told Long Spring.

"Yes!" Long Spring nodded, and the missile launcher on her body immediately locked onto the Purifiers that were charging.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh!

A huge sound erupted from Long Spring's ship equipment, like a dragon's roar, causing the other fleets that were discussing to turn all their gaze toward here.

Only four missiles were seen trailing long plumes of flame, rushing with thunderous force toward the battle sea.

"What is this?" the other seven major fleets all showed puzzled expressions.

Their eyes followed the trajectory of those four missiles, and they saw the four missiles fly at extreme speed to the combat zone, accurately striking the Purifiers that were charging forward.

Boom—

With the earth-shaking sound, a huge blaze obscured the entire sky. This blaze not only halted the Purifiers' advancing assault, but also left all the Sakura Empire shipgirls stunned.

And together with the stunned Sakura Empire shipgirls, the shipgirls of the other seven major fleets were also dazed.

"This! How is it possible? At such a distance, not only did it hit precisely, but it also caused such tremendous damage!" George V exclaimed in surprise.

"Is this Donghuang's secret weapon?" Ou Gen Qin Wang said softly, her eyes fixed directly on Long Spring, who had just fired the four missiles.

"A destroyer?" Tierbici was also greatly surprised.

"…" Several of the major fleets had been stunned for a while; momentarily they gazed at the distant horizon's blaze, then at Long Spring who had just finished firing and retracted her device, their hearts filled with a hundred thousand questions.

"Hiss~ Is the pattern of war about to change?" North Carolina said.

"Donghuang, this kind of weapon, at such a distance and yet so precise!" Washington also wore a grave expression.

However, at this time, the most excited and thrilled were still Qin Ge's shipgirls.

"So this is what a missile is? It's truly amazing!" Guanghui looked at Long Spring and exclaimed in astonishment.

"Yeah, this weapon can change the tide of war…" Bisimai's eyes also lit up with light.
