I'm currently being escorted to the office of the Ironblood HQ. I was with Scharnhorst and Gneisenau, shes still fantasizing about me and her together. I don't know who this TheUnderTaker person is, but the name sounds dumb if I'm being honest...

The three of us walked towards our destination.

Scharnhorst: Before you meet him, you must know that TheUnderTaker is a very cold person. He chose that name for his masculinity.

Minato: Okay? What does he do?

Scharnhorst: He's the Kommandant of this faction; along with his colleagues. I guess since you came from a different world he despises you. He may have targeted you because you don't suit the Commander title.

Minato: I didn't really have a choice... plus I only serve for the SEES...

Scharnhorst: SEES?

Minato: Nothing, are we almost there?

Scharnhorst: Yes, just know you're under watch by the Ironblood faction after the recent event that happened.

Minato: Yeah, yeah, yeah... I get it... I'm being treated like a criminal...

Scharnhorst and I stopped walking and faced a steel door. She knocked on it roughly.

???: It's open.

Scharnhorst opened the door revealing, TheUnderTaker. I walked in first. He had a face mask to conceal his identity. His hair was short and color was jet black, he also whore a commander uniform with the colors of the Ironblood faction.

There was another guy next to him as well. He was kinda like TheUnderTaker. All that is different is his eye color, which is gray colored.

Scharnhorst: This is the Commander on your hitlist.

TheUnderTaker: Good. You two, scout around the HQ for anyone that are trying to spill the tea on us.

Scharnhorst & Gneisenau: Ja, Kommandant!

Great, now Akira has to be even more careful not to get captured.

The UnderTaker closed the door after the two girls left. He looked at me in a cold way. He pointed at a chair facing his desk. Guess he's commanding me to sit there.

The UnderTaker: Sit down.

Minato: I guess.

We sat down in our seats. He kept staring at me weirdly.

Minato: What do you want.

???: Erm ... you shouldn't say that!

The UnderTaker: Enough. Your name is... Minato. Correct?

Minato: ...

The Undertaker: Answer the question! Your name is Minato, correct!?

Minato: ...Take it how you will...

He stared at me and appeared to be even more angry. It's kinda funny actually...

The UnderTaker: Do you know what you're doing!?

Minato: Yes. Now what do you want?

The UnderTaker: I have a lot of things bothering me... and you're one of them.

Minato: Look... I'm only here cause that white haired girl with the mole on her sideboob, framed me. She's lucky I didn't kill her...

The UnderTaker: Shut up! Don't try to put the blame on my girls! You know what you did!

Minato: You know what... I don't care...

The UnderTaker rose up from his seat as he slammed his fist on the desk. Guess he couldn't handle what I said...

The UnderTaker: Of course you don't care! You're not from this world! Not to mention, you married a load of shipgirls! You let this happen didn't you!?

Minato: ...

The UnderTaker: I know you killed my Roon! Do you know how long it took to research and get BPs just for you to kill her!!!???

Wasn't me it was Akira...well... I shouldn't say that Akira did it.

The UnderTaker: Not to mention ... YOU! YOU took MY Zeppy away from me, that little brat! My Graf Zeppelin came back but Zeppy didn't... she'll get punishment...

Minato: She's not yours anymore... and I won't let you harm her too...

The UnderTaker: What was that!?

Minato: ...She wants to be with me. Not you. You're just some angry guy who would make her scared. She calls me her father, since she calls me that, I will take the role as her father and protect her with my life.

The UnderTaker: How dare you talk to me like that! You!

TheUnderTaker points at the other guy.

The UnderTaker: Take him out of my sight! I'll plan on what to do with him. I'll come up with something for punishment...

???: Understood, UnderTaker...

The other guy seemed like a commander. He took me out of the office and we walked outside. I already despise this UnderTaker guy...

Minato: I can kill him...

???: Um, you shouldn't say that when you're being watched... Anyways, I apologize for earlier ... he just... hasn't seen someone like you. By the way, how did you manage to marry so many shipgirls?

Minato: I don't know. Why do you care?

???: Well ... that's strange because I have eight wives, all of them are proposed. However, you were just forced. Weren't you?

Minato: ...It was just for a dumb compromise.... that's all to it...

Nanaki: I see... my name's Nanaki Shizuruki, the formal captain of Azur Lane.

Minato: ...

Nanaki: I work undercover. You know, I question why this base has AK-47's in the hanger.

Minato: Ok?

Nanaki: Well... you sure are interesting, Minato.

Minato: I know you're doing this for your boss or whatever.

Nanaki: No, I can prove to you why my boss is wrong. Here, follow me.

Minato: Fine I guess... I have nothing else to do.

This guy is pretty different. At least I'll revive some support. *sigh* Akira... you better not get caught...

Timeskip

Nanaki and I stopped at the dining area where Akira almost got caught. Nanaki grabbed two mugs from the coffee dispenser with an Ironblood marking on both mugs.

Nanaki: Care for some Kaffee?

Minato: No. Is that all you have?

Nanaki: Well, this place only serves German coffee. Come on, have some.

Minato: My answer won't change.

Nanaki: Suit yourself I guess...

Nanaki lifted his mask, revealing his mouth to sip his coffee.

He put his mug down and looked at me.

Nanaki: I heard you've dealt with yanderes. What do you do with them?

Minato: I just ignore them. If they annoy me I guess I kill them if I find myself in danger.

Nakai: I see... have you killed anyone though?

Minato: Yeah, I killed a ship from Sakura Empire, Royal Navy, and Eagle Union. So, I guess I did.

Nanaki: Woah... Also you're married to a lot of ships. You should show your feelings towards them to built a better relationship with them. So they can feel happy with you, and they'll become stronger with that bond!

Minato: You're telling me that when I can't even go back to my base...

Nanaki: Oh... right... The UnderTaker is sending people to your base to kill those girls...

Minato: I wish him luck...

This guy seems like he wants me to trust him... but I can't just trust him right away. Even if he wants to help me I have to stay alone.

Minato: *sigh* I'm just going to lay my head down...

As I put my head down for literally a few seconds, I felt something warm.

???: Oh my~ It's just like my child~

Nanaki: Someone's behind you by the way.

Minato: I wonder if it's that German ship from research...

Nanaki: Then turn around...

Minato: I guess...

I turned around and saw the ship, Friedrich der Große.

She was just smiling at me when I looked at her face.

Friedrich der Groß: Hello my child~ Would you like a hug from me?

Minato: No, not really...

Guess she's going to treat me like her child or something...

Nanaki: I think she's attracted to you.

Friedrich der Groß: Hm? Is this your friend, my child?

Minato: No, he's not my friend.

She smiled when I said that.

Nanaki: Yep, I'm not his friend.

Ironblood shipgirls can apparently know if someone is lying but they can't tell if I'm lying. I bet she would've figure out if Nanaki was lying.

Friedrich der Große: Alright, I believe you my child~

She kept smiling at me while Nanaki was silently drinking his coffee.

Friedrich der Große: Well, it was a pleasure to meet you and your colleague. Since you two don't want me to disturb you. I'll be on my way then.

She left both Nanaki and I.

Nanaki: Friedrich der Große seems a bit off... I don't like how she looked at me...

Minato: What did she do?

Nanaki: I guess a "I'm going to kill you" face.

Minato: Well, at least she isn't crazy like other ships I've encountered.

Nanaki: How do you deal with them? I know you kill them but how?

This guy might not believe me or think I'm crazy because I deal with these ships by pointing a gun at my head to summon a literal demon...

Minato: I uh... I use guns?

Nanaki: Well, in that case I can take you to my armory.

The fowl presence of Friedrich lurking in the shadows after she left the cafeteria has only begun.

Timeskip to 10 minutes

Nanaki guided me to his armory of weapons which is filled with different weapons.

Nanaki: Are you a melee or a ranged type of person?

Minato: Melee. Wait hold on you're actually giving me something?

Nanaki: Well, yeah. You have to defend yourself.

Minato: Ok look, I... I have my own weapons but they got confiscated. I think either by Gneisenau or Scharnhorst.

Nanaki: Luckily I do know where they are.

Minato: You do?

Nanaki: Yeah, just follow me.

Minato: Alright then.

A few minutes later

Nanaki guided me to a dorm that was pretty bland.

Minato: Is this the place? Sure is bland.

Nanaki: Yeah, this was going to be your dorm since you'll be here for a while. However, I don't think The UnderTaker would want you to have dorm... after what happened...

Minato: Okay, where are my weapons?

Nanaki: I don't know. I just know they're here. Just search I guess.

Minato: Alright then.

I searched around and found a box under the bed.

I pulled it out and opened it.

Nanaki: Hurry up, you don't want to get caught do you?

Minato: Alright, I found them.

Nanaki: A blade, a gun, and another gun? Interesting. Anyways, let's go!

Minato: Right.

Timeskip to Docks

Nanaki and I made it to the docks. He pointed to the ocean. The howling wind and falling snowflakes and the ambiance was eerie. It was only us and no one else.

Minato: It sure is snowy...

Nanaki: Yeah...

Minato: Is this the location?

Nanaki: Yeah.

Nanaki: This is the quickest route to the outskirts of this place. Your base is pretty far from here. From where we are at, we go north only.

Minato: Alright.

Nanaki: We shall do this at nightfall. It gets busy during the day and those girls are like mad dogs. They can smell your scent from a mile... crazy right? This one time a person tried to escape during day and was executed point-blank. Bismarck and Tirpitz are the ones who can orchestrate any murder they desire.

Minato: I almost killed Tirpitz...

Nanaki: You did?

Minato: Yeah... I just didn't kill her cause... I... don't know... damn, I should've just killed her... ugh...

Nanaki: Ironblood shipgirls could try to manipulate you. They try to harvest your emotions and use it as a weapon. However... you're way different so it's probably very hard if not impossible to try and manipulate you...

Minato: What do you expect from a guy who's dead inside...

Nanaki: Anyway, before we leave I need to first pack my things and check myself out. Let's head back to the cafeteria, shall we?

Minato: Ok, I guess.

We left the docks and headed to the cafeteria. I saw someone I recognized.

???: Shikikan, is that you?

I saw it... a women... her chocolate colored hair... light purple eyes... a long dress of red... and her umbrella...

Minato: Didn't I kill you?

Amagi: *sigh* That is correct. I apologize for wanting you for myself Shikikan... I should've known better...

Amagi: I'm a different Amagi but with the same soul. Thanks to technology, I'm able to recognize you.

Minato: So... you were received from this or some other faction?

Amagi: Correct... a lot has changed hasn't it? Even your appearance is different.

She stared at my dancing clothes that I still have on because a certain shipgirl made my original clothes disappear or something...

Minato: Why are you here?

Amagi: I'm visiting someone.

Nanaki: Minato? Are you okay? Oh... hello there.

Amagi: Greetings... you are?

Nanaki: I'm Nanaki Shizuruki. I was a former commander of the Azur Lane.

Amagi gave Nanaki a smile.

Amagi: Where are you two heading?

Nanaki: We're heading to the cafeteria to discuss about Minato's base and his shipgirls.

Amagi: Oh? I may know some about most of the shipsgirls.

Minato: How?

Amagi: I have my ways. I'll join you two to the cafeteria. I'll visit the person later.

Nanaki: Alright! Come on, the cafeteria's this way! Let's hurry before someone catches up to us.

Amagi: Got it.

Minato: Ok...

We finally reached the cafeteria and headed inside the facility.

Friedrich der Große's POV

I was walking around to find out where my child was. He looks very attractive... his beautiful blue hair and eyes... I hope I can win his heart with my cuteness. However, I felt that something is taking control of myself. I put my hands on my head and the pain was inevitable.

Friedrich der Große: *grunts* Who's doing this?!Ngh... who are you?!

I heard a voice similar to mine, but twisted.

???: First things first... I'm you. No tricks, no one else, just you.

Friedrich der Große: You're me?

???: Of course... I'm you, other me. You like that Commander, don't you?

Why is it asking questions about my child?

Friedrich der Große: How did you know my child ended Deutschland?!

???: Fool, it wasn't him... it was his friend.

Friedrich der Große: You won't put your hands on my Commander or his friend!

???: You're such a idiotic fool... Deutschland is gone forever! I'm taking over to join the fun of making the Kommandant and his friend bleed and shattered to pieces!

I can't handle the pain. I put my hands on my head and trying to make the pain stop until I fall on the floor, unconscious. Commander... please... be safe...

Back to Minato's POV

The cafeteria's pretty quiet and eerier.

Nanaki: People don't usually come here in the evening, so it's always silent.

We took our seats. Amagi closed her umbrella and placed it besides her.

Nanaki: Alright Amagi, what's happening?

Amagi: Commander... Enterprise... she...

Minato: What about her...? She's normal right...?

I've been spending a lot of time with Enterprise in the past and I doubt that she'll return to being love sick for me. However... I haven't spent time with anyone ever since I came here. I wonder if Enterprise feels some way because I killed Helena... not to mention she did act sorta weird when I introduced Zeppy to her... I hope Zeppy is okay...

Amagi: Her personality seems to be shifting... I guess with you by her side she didn't feel that way. She felt safe and happy with you. But now that you are not with her, she worries much for you. She might hurt people close to you for answers to know where you are.

Minato: Damn... its like she has a split personality.

Amagi: I've noticed that she said things like "im going to kill that masked thief... if it's the last thing I do".

She must be talking about Akira.

Minato: It seems everybody is targeting Akira...

Amagi: Akira?

Minato: It's nothing.

Amagi: She also talks about your secretaries, Takao and Jintsuu.

Minato: ...what's gone into her...

Amagi: And worse... she's killing you last and probably herself too... since she feels deeply connected with you.

Minato: *sigh* I guess maybe she was upset about that I killed Helena. I did what I had to do though.

Nanaki: Yeah, you're right there.

Amagi: I don't know what to say...

???: Well Minato... I see we found you.

I looked at the figures and appeared to be Takao and Jintsuu. They appear to be carrying Friedrich de Große.

Minato: What are you two doing?

Jintsuu: We've been looking for you. Since... base is well... uh... Enterprise.

Takao: Yep... I almost got killed... again...

Takao then glanced at Amagi.

Takao: Amagi? It's been a while...

Amagi: Hello, Jintsuu and Takao.

Amagi: What's been happening to base?

Takao: The Sakura Empire girls are trying to maintain their sanity after Minato went missing. Akagi, Atago, Shoukaku, Zuikaku, and Souryuu are losing their minds. Kaga and Hiryuu are doing their best to calm them down.

Jintsuu: Worse thing yet... they're all targeting Akira...

Minato: It seems everyone wants him dead.

Amagi: Sorry, but who is this Akira person?

Takao: He's similar to the Commander. He's killed some ships.

Amagi: I see...

Minato: And the others?

Takao: The others are fine, but this one maid got a picture of Minato, getting her special cream, spilled on the photo, and started to lick all over it with her tongue. Also Taihou is searching for you everywhere.

Nanaki: That sounds disgusting... I think I might puke.

Jintsuu: Let's not come to any conclusions that it is Belfast.

Amagi: By the way, what is she doing here?

Amagi was mentioning Friedrich de Große, who was unconscious.

Takao: We round her on the floor knocked out. So, we decided to bring her with us.

Jintsuu and Takao placed Friedrich de Große on the floor. Nanaki approached Friedrich de Große. He placed his hand on her forehead. A few seconds pasted by and he removed his hand.

Nanaki: She's still alive, but her head feels warm.

Nanaki then checked his watch.

Nanaki: Perfect timing, it's getting dark.

Minato: Is it time?

Nanaki nodded his head. Takao, Jintsuu, and Amagi looked at us clueless. Nanaki told them about helping me leave this place.

Jintsuu: Guess our work here is done. This place is a mess to begin with. Now, where do we escape?

Nanaki: From the docks. You four need to leave immediately and get back to your base. I need to get some things from my armory, give me 10 minutes.

Amagi picked up her umbrella and smiled at me.

Amagi: I'm going with Nanaki, so I'm buying you some time. Just get out of here now.

Minato: Right. Let's go Takao and Jintsuu.

Amagi: *giggles* I still love you no matter what you are... even if you killed me before... I still respect you. Until we meet again... Minato.

We went our own ways. Amagi went with Nanaki while I lead the way for Jintsuu and Takao.

Friedrich de Große's POV

I slowly woke up after I heard the sound of a closing door. I didn't remember how I ended up here... I gave myself an evil grin and my pupils shrunk to the size of a pea.

???: He fell for it; thanks to whoever brought me here, I know what he is trying to do. Now, I'll avenge my fallen comrade by ripping his head off!!!

I giggled slowly and laughed like a cute maniac for my desire to finish off what my weaker self calls him "my child" I've taken over that weak fool. Thunder and lighting were roaring in anger and huge storms were brewing as I was ready to murder the foolish Kommandant.

Back to Minato's POV

We ran quickly towards the docks.

Jintsuu: You got everything on Enterprise, Takao?

Takao: I did. Now let's get out of here! You ready Minato?

Minato: Yes.

Takao: Alright! Let's go!

Wisdom cubes emarged from thin air, revealing their ringings and they hopped on the watery surface.

Minato: Yeet!

I jumped in the water without hesitation. However... as I jumped into the water... I didn't. I was pulled back by something.

I turned around and saw Friedrich de Große and The UnderTaker.

The UnderTaker: Well, well, well. If it isn't the commander who killed my ships. I was expecting you to escape this place you dummkopf.

Friedrich de Große was holding me with her ringings. The two shark heads with vicious teeth are preparing for some kind of blast. I guess to kill me.

I looked back and saw Takao and Jintsuu getting pinned down by Prinz Eugen, Scharnhorst, and Gneisenau.. They tried to break free from their grip but were overpowered by the three of them.

Jintsuu: Damnit... it's a trap!

Takao: Let go of me!

I managed to not get stabbed by Friedrich de Große but I was still tangled up. That bastard UnderTaker wants me dead.

I was slowly getting constricted by Friedrich's ringings.

Minato: Ngh...

I can't reach my Evoker.

The UnderTaker: I have a mindset to eliminate people from different universes! I'm doing what is right! You killed some of my girls... I'll do the same to you! YOULL BE NOTHING!!! And the thing I've been working on... hahaha... this weapon I have will eliminate your soul in this universe and the universe you originally come from. In conclusion... you'll be dead DEAD!

Minato: ...Ngh....

???: Fool! You were responsible for the death of someone you killed! You killed Deutschland... by shooting her in the head... and now... it's your turn to DIIIEEEE!!!!

???: Not if I have any to say about it...

Everyone looked at the moonlight.

Prinz Eugen: What can this be?

Gneisenau: A shadow person?

Scharnhorst: Be careful Kommandant!

Jintsuu: No way... it's... him!!!????

Takao: I hope he can do it... Ngh...

???: Ahahaha!!! This is the person who killed Roon!

The UnderTaker: Hm? What is that?

Akira(Joker): It's now or it's never, and I've got to
make my decision...
