Chapter 939: Modification Data and Emergency Communication

Night at Petropavlovsk Port was tranquil and harmonious; the shipgirls wore fine attire, their faces lit with smiles, fluttering about the banquet like butterflies.

No one would associate this scene with a victory banquet, but strictly speaking, they are tonight's protagonists, warriors sailing on the azure waves.

"Sorry for the wait, White Eagle comrades; things have been hectic lately, and I apologize for any shortcomings in hospitality." Upon arriving at the venue, Wuzang and several senior members of Sakura Empire headed straight toward the few White Eagle individuals, Bunker Hill.

"It's fine, we can understand." Bunker Hill said calmly, as if no matter what happened, she remained this way.

"That's just how Bunker Hill people are; I hope Sakura Empire's comrades don't mind." North Carolina said with a smile; although she often calls herself ordinary, compared to others her diplomatic skills are still strong.

"How could we mind? We've lived in Gangqu for so long; we naturally know Miss Bunker Hill's personality, so we feel nothing amiss." Tiancheng smiled from the side.

Previously she had always followed Qin Ge, so she was relatively familiar with most people in Gangqu.

"That's correct, and I'm truly grateful that White Eagle's everyone could provide such far‑reaching maritime support." Wuzang said.

"Hehe, it's fine; we came because the Commander requested it. Moreover, it seems the Commander overthought things—relying on your Sakura Empire's strength, we can already resolve matters in this sea area." North Carolina laughed.

"Moreover, this time we instantly eliminated two high‑level Siren humanoids; if word gets back to Gangqu, the Commander would probably be thrilled. After all, this is unprecedented in the world—even other factions would surely turn their gaze toward our Gangqu."

"Actually, these are unexpected developments; we originally didn't anticipate directly facing two high‑level Siren humanoids, because Sector 76 is inherently a key sea area—once a Siren outpost was discovered there, we had to take action."

"However, when the operation unfolded, we only then discovered there were two high‑level Siren humanoids there. With the arrow nocked, we had no choice but to release it; to eliminate them, Sakura Empire also paid the corresponding cost."

"Nevertheless, the outcome is gratifying: having eliminated the outpost in Sector 76, we can fully connect the Bering Strait, turning the North Pacific into our rear base; next we can focus on launching a new round of operations toward the Pacific center." Wuzang said.

"What's more important is that White Eagle's comrades didn't come for nothing, because after this battle Sakura Empire's many ships have largely lost combat capability and need a series of repairs before they can fight again."

"Therefore, the upcoming campaign to secure the Bering Strait still requires your assistance; only then can we swiftly turn this place into our rear base."

As expected, the White Eagle personnel exchanged glances involuntarily.

"Of course, this time we won't let White Eagle's comrades come for nothing; when we previously searched that sea‑area outpost, we found some interesting items—I believe they hold great appeal for White Eagle's comrades as well." Wuzang said, raising his hand as a purple light appeared in his palm.

Bunker Hill glanced at Wuzang, then seized his hand; the purple light instantly vanished, and Bunker Hill's eyes widened involuntarily.

"It's actually this kind of thing." Bunker Hill exclaimed.

"What exactly is it?" North Carolina and the others wondered aloud; something capable of making the usually composed Bunker Hill show such an expression must be extraordinary.

"Some data on modified equipment." Bunker Hill explained.

"Data on modified equipment?" North Carolina and the others blinked, suddenly feeling confused.

"Back when we carried out the major remodelling in Gangqu, didn't we detect that Sheng Di Ya Ge, Yanzhan, and several others possessed the potential to be upgraded to Sea Legend Rank?"

"But so much time has passed, research on these modified items has remained slow, whereas the data Wuzang just produced happens to be exactly about modified equipment." Bunker Hill explained, then turned to Wuzang: "If we have this data, I believe we can soon produce the corresponding modified equipment, right?"

"Hehe, pretty much." Wuzang nodded. "Perhaps this is Sakura Empire's biggest gain from this battle."

Bunker Hill gave Wuzang a deep look: "Our 58th Task Force can assist Sakura Empire's comrades with sea‑area operations, but these matters require the Commander's approval first."

"Regarding your unilateral operation this time, the Commander is also rather angry. Moreover, it's not just us—the Northern Union might also arrive here in the coming days."

"The Northern Union?" Wuzang narrowed his eyes.

"Actually, I think this is a good thing; if the Northern Union really shows up, it means the Sovereign is already prepared to launch a full‑scale offensive in the North Pacific." Tiancheng smiled.

"Furthermore, I believe the Sovereign isn't that rigid; he's angry because he worries we might undertake actions with excessively high costs, but as long as we keep the cost within what he can accept, I think he won't dwell on this matter."

"Besides, judging from earlier messages sent from Gangqu and information from other factions' comrades, the Sovereign is preparing a full‑scale offensive on all four fronts—east, west, south, north—and his vision surpasses ours by far."

Sakura Empire and White Eagle personnel stared in surprise; they had never heard of such a thing before.

"Is the Commander preparing a full‑scale offensive? Why haven't I noticed anything at all?" North Carolina wondered.

Just then, Dao Feng came running over at top speed.

"Report: Zhang Men Sir, Wuzang Sir, Xinong Sir! Emergency communiqué from the Commander! Additionally, the Commander said to let White Eagle's comrades also participate in this emergency communication!"

Wuzang and the others exchanged glances, instantly dared not delay, left the banquet hall and rushed toward the communications room at the base.

Upon reaching the communications room and opening the door, sure enough a phantom figure stood with its back to everyone.

"Commander!"

That figure, upon hearing the voice, turned around; although its appearance was somewhat illusory, everyone present could confirm it.

Qin Ge nodded: "Sorry to disturb your banquet, but I think this matter should be told to you in advance so you can arrange the subsequent deployments."

"The Arbiter has already re‑descended upon this world; judging by their conduct, the time of the final showdown is not far off. Hence before then, I need you to seize the Pacific in a short time, confining the Sirens' activity range to the Pacific center."

"Yes, Commander!"
