Harbor of Kiel :

3rd P.O.V

On the docks of the harbor were several Ironblood girls. They were waiting for Bismarck to come as she called them there.

Some of the Shipgirls that were present were, before that, in a Mirror Sea that Ironblood somehow took control over, in the goal to ambush an Advisor-class Siren.

But that plan was canceled because of the ongoing situation with the Sirens. Instead, once Operation Siren has officially begun, they were called to come back to Kiel as they will have a role to play in the biggest joint operation they have ever done.

As for that Mirror Sea, it has been abandoned. Until Tester Beta was called by Charles in the Dreamworld. She decided to bring a part of the Dreamworld Sirens to that Mirror Sea and make them wait there until they get called by her, without no one knowing.

And now, here they are, talking while waiting for Bismarck to show up.

Z28 : So, why are we here ?

Peter Strasser : Well, Z28, it is time for us to do our part of the operation. After all, Bismarck told me to bring you here.

Z28 : Wow ! Is that true, Peter Strasser ?

Peter Strasser : Indeed. I hope you are all ready to fight. Are your planes ready, Weser ?

Weser : Yes, I am. Although it's hard to think I went from being a heavy cruiser to a light carrier. I wonder what will Hipper and Eugen think of it.

Z26 : Well, didn't Kaga went from being a battleship to an Aircraft Carrier ? And yet, Tosa still like her sister, and so does Amagi.

Weser : You're right, Z26. I forgot about that. Whether I am Seydlitz or Weser, my goal and family will stay the same.

Z25 : *low voice* Mr. Anchor, I know I have been chosen by Bismarck for this, but do you think I can do it ?

Prinz Heinrich : Hey ! Don't worry, Z25 ! We are all in this together ! Heck, just do your best and it will all go smoothly !

Z25 : Yes ! I can do it ! I have all all of you at my side, so I can help.

Leipzig : I will do my best as well...

Nürnberg : So am I.

Peter Strasser : Heinrich, although it's nice to see your optimism, I have to remind you that our time is not made for playing around.

Prinz Heinrich : Jeez, can't you just learn how to have fun once in a while ?

Peter Strasser : When this war will be over, we will have all the time to do that, but our time is better spent planning our next moves against the Sirens and the Creator.

Z24 : Why need plans when I, the Crimson Fiend, can vanquish them with my terrifying power ! Those seas will be painted red with their blood !

Z25 : Eek ! *hides behind Mr. Anchor*

??? : Really, Z24 ? Do I need to talk to Z23 again about your behavior ?

Everyone looked to see that Bismarck finally came, but not alone. Mainz, Roon and U-556 was with her as well.

Z24 : No ! I'm only stating the facts by describing how much power I wield !

Mainz : Please stop your act, Z24. It brings nothing of strategical value.

Z24 : Grrrrr !

Bismarck : Z24 ! Enough !

Z24 : Sorry, Kommandant.

Weser : So, is it true that we will finally see some action ?

Bismarck : Indeed. We will start our part now, as the Sardegnia Empire, with the help of Friedrich, Amagi's fleet, and also Charles with his Sirens, managed to take back the Mediterranean Sea.

Peter Strasser : The more you talk about that Charles, the more I am interested to meet him.

Prinz Heinrich : What ?! He can lead Sirens ?!

Bismarck : From what Nagato told me in her most recent message, yes. More precisely, what he calls the Dreamworld Sirens.

A portal suddenly opened not far from the group. The group stiffened and prepare for a fight. A figure got out of the portal. It was Tester Beta. Bismarck seeing this decided to act.

Bismarck : Drop your weapons ! It's Tester Beta !

Everybody did as ordered. Tester Beta started to talk.

Tester Beta : Good to know you are ready for anything.

Bismarck : I never expected you to show up, Tester. Is there a reason for you to be here ?

Tester Beta : Correct. Charles sent me here to fight alongside you.

Roon : Is that true about the fact that Charles can lead some Sirens ?

Tester Beta : Yes. The Dreamworld Sirens have actually swore allegiance to him.

Mainz : Does this mean we will see them fight as well ?

Tester Beta : This is very likely. After all, I've been tasked to lead one of the group of Dreamworld Sirens myself.

Nürnberg : But you said that they only obey Charles, right ? So, how can you lead them ?

Tester Beta : The only reason they will follow my orders is because they were tasked by Charles to follow my orders for that mission, but otherwise, they will only take orders from him.

Z24 : What ?! I thought we were supposed to destroy the Sirens, not fight with them !

Z28 : You didn't listen to what has been said.

Z24 : That's it ! I'm gonna fight Charles !

Everyone looked at her as if she was insane, even Roon. You know when something is bad when even Roon is questioning Z24's behavior.

Bismarck : *sighs* Remind me to tell Z23 about her behavior.

Peter Strasser : I will make sure to remember this.

Z24 : Please no ! Don't tell her !

Roon : *mind* Good grief...

Bismarck : In any case, let's get prepared ! If you have any questions, do it right now !

Leipzig : Where are the Dreamworld Sirens right now ?

Tester Beta : For now, they are waiting in the Mirror Sea where Peter Strasser's group was previously.

Z26 : Really ?

Tester Beta : Yes. And also, I saw your plans about defeating Compiler, that was quite impressive to see.

Weser: So you have seen them. But that plan is basically useless now since we have discovered the truth about you.

Tester Beta : While it's true, I kept them aside in case of. It might be useful if we modify it for whoever the target will be.

Mainz : As expected from someone with strategical thinking.

Bismarck : U-556, are the the other U-Boats ready ?

U-556 : Yes, Lord Bismarck. They are standing by right now. U-37, U-81, U-110, U-101, U-557 and myself are ready to go.

U-37 : I'm ready to sink some Sirens !

U-81 : I'm here !

U-110 : Rawwwr... Fear me... I'm a shark...

U-101 : My Great Shark and I are ready !

U-557 : I'm here and I promise to not get in your way...

Bismarck : In that case, let our march begin. The Sirens will never stop us.

Ironblood : JAWOHL !!!

Tester Beta : Let's get going !

The Ironblood fleet is finally ready to sail. The fleet is composed of the following girls :

(Aviation) Battleships : Bismarck and Tester Beta.

(Light) Aircraft Carriers : Peter Strasser and Weser

Heavy Cruisers : Prinz Heinrich and Roon

Light Cruisers : Leipzig, Nürnberg and Mainz

Destroyers : Z24, Z25, Z26 and Z28

Submarines : U-37, U-81, U-101, U-110, U-556 and U-557.

Meanwhile in the English Channel :

Still 3rd P.O.V

In the English Channel could be seen the second Royal Navy fleet taking part in "Operation Siren". Clémenceau was part of the team as well. They were on their way to join the Ironblood near Kiel before going to St. Petersburg to help the Northern Parliament.

The reason why was that some sectors next to St. Petersburg had either a level 5 or 6 of corrosion. So, heading there was a priority for both the Royal Navy and Ironblood as the firepower of the Northern Parliament was very limited, despite Foch and Omitter helping them.

Right now, they were wondering about the progress of taking back the Mediterranean Sea.

Queen Elizabeth : Do we have any news about the Sardegnia Empire ?

King George V : As far as I know, I don't. Maybe you have some news, Clémenceau ?

Clémenceau : Nope, but I can always call him.

Monarch : Do it. Maybe he could give us an answer to his mysterious message.

Howe : Oh right, we still don't have a clue of what he meant.

Clémenceau : Alright, let me call him then. TB, if you would.

TB : Of course. Starting a call with Charles.

A few seconds have passed before his call has been answered.

Charles : Clémenceau ? Do you need something ?

Clémenceau : Oui. Did you managed to take back the Mediterranean Sea ?

Charles : Oui, we did not very long ago. I joined the Sardegnia Empire, Friedrich and Amagi's fleet to help them with my Siren army.

Clémenceau : I see... Wait ! Your Siren Army ?! Does it have a link with your message ?!

Charles : Oui. I came with the Dreamworld Sirens to help.

Clémenceau : So, you can control them ?

Charles : I wouldn't say control them, but rather leading them, as it feels more righteous.

Clémenceau : I see. Well, it's good to know. Well, I'm gonna tell the others then.

Charles : One more thing before ending the call.

Clémenceau : Oui ?

Charles : I sent two Sirens to your position to help you with your mission.

Clémenceau : Who are they ?

Charles : The two Sirens you're gonna meet were discovered by Richelieu and Hood's group, before I freed them from the Creator's grasp.

Clémenceau : Alright. À plus tard. *ends the call*

Clémenceau P.O.V

I looked back at the group to see they were surprised by what they heard from the conversation.

Ark Royal : Wow. He still continues to surprise us.

Galatea : So, Charles is truly the kind of person that will always challenge fate itself.

Aurora : I see why most of you speak highly of him.

Monarch : Didn't he said that two Sirens are coming with us ?

Valiant : I heard that too. When are they coming ?

Penelope : Since they can teleport, they could appear at any second, or even now.

Penelope couldn't be more right than now as a portal opened next to us. A big one at that. Just like Charles told me, two Sirens got out of it, but I don't recognize any of them.

Arethusa : Are they the two Sirens we were waiting for ?!

Beagle : They look strong.

??? : So, you are Queen Elizabeth's group ?

Queen Elizabeth : I take it you are the two Sirens that Charles sent.

The grey Siren nodded while the other one talks.

Howe : Could you introduce yourselves please ?

King George V : After all, that's the first time we meet each other.

Enforcer VIII : Oh right. I am Enforcer VIII : Determination, an Enforcer-class Siren. Nice to meet you.

Arbiter VIII : ...Arbiter VIII : The Strength...

Enforcer VIII : Don't worry, Strength is not someone who talks a lot.

Bulldog : Arbiter VIII is just as talkative as Eldridge.

Enforcer VIII : You're not wrong.

Clémenceau : So, you're gonna bring some Dreamworld Sirens and bring them to the fight.

Enforcer VIII : It is very likely that you will see them fight with us.

Arbiter VIII : So will... Ironblood and... the Northern Parliament...

Queen Elizabeth : Wait ! You mean some Sirens went with Bismarck and Sovetskaya Rossiya's groups ?

Enforcer VIII : Yes. Tester Beta went with Bismarck. And Omitter went with the Northern Parliament, right now at St. Petersburg.

Clémenceau : I can confirm because Foch is with them as well.

King George V : Well, I think we should join with Bismarck first before helping the Northern Parliament.

Renown : So, we can trap the Sirens in the sectors from the west side while they trap the east side to make sure we can contain them all.

Repulse : Wow ! That's a great idea !

King George V : I second this.

Clémenceau : I have no objections either on my side.

Queen Elizabeth : A good plan expected from my allies ! Let's join Bismarck !

Everyone else : YES !!!

Our fleet just left the English Channel in direction of Kiel to find Bismarck and her group to launch an offensive assault against the Sirens in the North.

Our fleet consist of the following ships :

Battleships : Queen Elizabeth, Valiant, King George V, Howe, Monarch, Renown, Repulse and Arbiter VIII : The Strength

Aircraft Carriers : Clémenceau and Ark Royal

Heavy Cruisers : Enforcer VIII : Determination

Light Cruisers : Arethusa, Galatea, Penelope and Aurora

Destroyers : Beagle and Bulldog

Meanwhile in the harbor of St. Petersburg :

3rd P.O.V

In the main building, we can see the Russian Shipgirls waiting for Omitter's return as she was called by Charles. They were doing their own thing.

Sovetskaya Rossiya, Sovetsky Soyuz and Kirov were discussing about Charles, which was obvious as Rossiya was blushing while the other two were smirking.

Gangut was once again drinking vodka and being drunk, which was normal.

Chapayev was cleaning her chains and collar for... scientific research of course.

The Russian destroyers were playing with Stremitelny, that came with the other Russian Shipgirls to help with the ongoing operation.

Pamiat Merkuria was busy being smug, wanting to prove that her smug power is superior to Bache.

Avrora was sat at a table, next to Foch. But she wasn't drinking vodka at all as she was busy looking at what Foch was doing.

Speaking of him, he was sat at the table before being joined by Avrora. He was busy reading one of the classical of the French Literature, "Les Mésirables", written by Victor Hugo.

Avrora : Your book is truly something : so interesting, yet so sad about the demise of some of the characters.

Foch : I agree. But then, society didn't work the same way as now. But some characters deserved a better fate, but then, the story wouldn't be the same.

Avrora : But that is changing right now because we are all united now, fighting for the same goals, regardless of our history.

Sovetskaya Rossiya : Da. We are achieving the true unity that we, the Northern Parliament, were searching all along.

The calm that was reigning in the room disappeared as a portal opened in the middle of the room. A Siren got out of it, it was none other than Omitter.

Omitter : Sup bitches, I'm back !

Omitter had her eyes closed. When she opened them, she saw a Shipgirl that she never saw before. It was Stremitelny. She looked at her, then at Rossiya, then back at Stremitelny, and doing several times before finally looking back at Rossiya.

Omitter : I knew you, the Russian Shipgirls, were straightforward, but damn Rossiya, you took it up to the next level !

Sovetskaya Rossiya : What do you mean ?

Omitter : Never knew you had it in you to make sex with Charles behind Richelieu's back and have a child with him !

Sovetskaya Rossiya : *blushing like crazy* W-W-W-What ?! That's n-n-not t-true !!!

Gangut : *W O K E* She... WHAT ?!

Chapayev : Ara~ You hide things from us now~

The Russian Shipgirls knew she didn't do it, but for the fun of it, they went along.

Sovetskaya Rossiya : STOP IT !!! THAT'S NOT TRUE !!! IT'S JUST STREMITELNY !!!

Stremitelny : Oh, so you're Omitter ? Nice to meet you, comrade.

Omitter : So, you're Rossiya's child ?

Stremitelny : What ? No, I'm just another comrade !

Omitter : ._.

Sovetskaya Rossiya : I told you !

Omitter : ...Not gonna lie, that's disappointing.

Pamiat Merkuria : *smug* But you do love Charles, right ?

Sovetskaya Rossiya : W-w-what ?!

Sovetsky Soyuz : Cone on, we all know~

Kirov : Just say it. It's not that complicated.

Sovetskaya Rossiya : B-B-but...

Chapayev : Ara~ I can chain him to you if you want~

Gangut : Come on, Comrade ! Where's your inspiring boldness, fearless leader ?!

Sovetskaya Rossiya : FINE !!! I LOVE HIM AND I DREAMT ABOUT DOING HANDHOLDING WITH HIM !!! HAPPY NOW ?!?!?!

Northern Parliament : Da !

Omitter : Yus !

Foch : Oui !

Sovetskaya Rossiya realized what she said and hid her face in her hands, blushing like crazy.

Minsk : Don't worry, Rossiya ! I already started drawing your future wedding dress ! Stalin will be proud of it !

Tashkent : Don't worry, Comrade. Charles is a good guy, that's what Littorio said to me.

Foch : I second this.

As they were about to continue talking, some cannon shots were heard. Omitter looked outside to see some Sirens approaching the harbor.

Omitter : Well, those Sirens fuckers are coming ! Good ! I need to destroy some of them !

Sovetskaya Rossiya : No more talking Comrades ! Let's start defending our Motherland ! We will bury those Sirens in the ocean floor !

Gangut : Well said, Comrade ! URAAAAH !!!

Rest of the Northern Parliament : URAAAAAAH !!!

Foch : I'm ready as well !

The group went towards their respective ships before turning them into their riggings before bringing the fight to the Sirens incoming.

(Timeskip given to you by Zuikaku trying to challenge Ash (Enterprise META) to a fight)

With the Royal Navy fleet, past Grand Belt :

3rd P.O.V

A few hours has passed since the Royal Navy fleet left the English Channel. They are now in the Grand Belt, a main point passage to get to Kiel and the Baltic Sea, where Bismarck's group was waiting.

For now, the fleet didn't met too much resistance, which was expected in those sectors that had either a corrosion level of 2 or 3. They thought that it was too easy.

But then, TB appeared.

TB : Warning, detection of a Mirror Sea with a corrosion level of 4 standing in front of us.

Queen Elizabeth : So, we're finally facing the first challenge of our mission.

Arethusa : Of course, there had to be one in our way.

Aurora : Well, they will try anything to get rid of us, so we should have expected it.

Clémenceau : In any case, we might have to warn Bismarck about that, so she knows why we are taking so much time.

King George V : A wise move. They might even take care of reinforcements that could come.

TB : Shoukd I send a message to Bismarck to tell her about the ongoing situation ?

Howe : Yes, please.

TB : Sending message to Bismarck ongoing. Message sent successfully.

Monarch : Good, we now can move forward to make those Sirens fall !

Ark Royal : Let's see how long those Sirens will survive my Swordfishes.

Bulldog : *mutters* For once she is serious about something.

Clémenceau : Not sure if I will use my Étendards or my Crusaders. I will see once we're on the battlefield, but knowing myself, I will probably use both of them.

Ark Royal : I can't wait to see your planes in action, Clémenceau. I want to see how powerful the planes of your era are.

Clémenceau : Trust me, you won't be disappointed by their abilities. Charles might have already shown to some of you their power. Foch will show his power as well.

Queen Elizabeth : Yeah, I definitely remember those planes that made the BRRRRT noise.

Clémenceau : Charles has A-10 Warthogs ?! Damn, he's lucky to have them !

Queen Elizabeth : Yeah, I wasn't that lucky when seeing them.

Clémenceau : And this is why you shall never mess with Charles.

Queen Elizabeth : Yeah, learned the lesson the hard way. And being scolded by Monarch didn't helped either.

Monarch : Told you that was a bad idea, but this is the past, you have proved your worth now.

Clémenceau : In any case, let's move on. We have to pass through that Mirror Sea.

Clémenceau went ahead with the rest following, ready to fight some Sirens.

Meanwhile with Bismarck's fleet, on the other side of Grand Belt :

3rd P.O.V

On the other side of the Grand Belt was Bismarck with her fleet. They chose that place to wait for the Royal Navy to join them.

Z26 : Are they coming ?

Peter Strasser : It takes some time to go from Liverpool to here, so this should be expected to wait for a while.

U-37 : But it would be best for them to hurry !

Z28 : Wait, are those Sirens over there ?

They look in the direction where Z28 was pointing to see some mass-produced Siren ships, but there was something odd about them.

Z25 : Is it me or they are completely ignoring us ?

Z24 : No, they are simply scared of my tremendous crimson power !

Mainz : Your so-called crimson power is non-existent. If they would be scared, then that would most likely be because of Roon's psychotic smile. But even then, an angry Charles is scarier.

Roon : Can confirm.

Bismarck : But why would they ignore us ?

Tester Beta : I have the answer.

U-556 : What is it ?

Tester Beta : Well, first, I pinpointed the Royal Navy's exact location, which is just on the other side of the Grand Belt. But there is actually a Mirror Sea in the middle of it.

Prinz Heinrich : Then, maybe those Sirens are going there ?

Prinz Heinrich's assumption was confirmed once they received TB's message sent by Clémenceau.

TB : I have an emergency message from Clémenceau, stating that they are going to enter a Mirror Sea.

Bismarck : We're gonna follow those Sirens to destroy them and to join the Royal Navy there.

Peter Strasser : So, it is finally time for us to fight ?

Prinz Heinrich : Finally ! Eisen, ready to fight some Sirens ?

Her rigging growled in joy.

U-101 : Come on, follow our lead !

Ironblood decided to go towards that Mirror Sea.

Back to Clémenceau and the Royal Navy :

Clémenceau and the Royal Navy just entered the Mirror Sea. Just as they expected, there was Sirens everywhere. Not like it will stop the Royal Navy, as they came prepared. They shouldn't have difficulties as it was some plain old regular Yellow Sirens.

Queen Elizabeth : My dear subjects, let's eliminate the Siren presence here !

Everyone else : YES, YOUR MAJESTY !

Clémenceau : Let's get started !

Siren 281 : Oh ? They're approaching us ?

Siren 5829 : Oy, shut up with that quote.

Siren 41780 : Yeah, your cartoon is cringe.

Clémenceau sent his Crusaders, armed with some missiles, ready to blow them up. The 3 Crusaders launched their missiles, blowing up several Sirens.

Ark Royal : Impressive. But don't leave me out of the fun.

Ark Royal joined the fight as well by sending some Swordfishes on the Sirens, which do a good job at eliminating some of them.

Meanwhile, Beagle, Bulldog and the Arethusa-class Light Cruisers are doing a good job dealing with the mass-produced Siren ships and the submarines lurking in this place.

Galatea : Seems like your fate stop here.

Enforcer VIII, on her side, had no problem at all dealing with the Sirens, whether by using her riggings or punching them to death.

In the backline, the battleships are preparing their salvoes to destroy the rest of the Sirens.

Queen Elizabeth : We're doing a good job right now, a little more and we can finish those Sirens.

Valiant : It shouldn't take too long.

Just like Valiant said, their salvoes are quickly ready to be fired. All they needed was the order from Queen Elizabeth.

Queen Elizabeth : FIRE !!!

Everyone, Arbiter VIII included, fired their salvoes. It was enough to destroy the rest of the Sirens.

Arethusa : Well, that was easy.

Arbiter VIII : ...I sense reinforcements coming...

Aurora : No wonder I felt it was too easy.

Suddenly, more Sirens appeared out of nowhere, but this time, the Sirens were blue.

Monarch : Hmm ? More challenge ? Good, I wasn't satisfied.

King George V : I agree with you that I didn't fought enough.

Renown : I'm always ready to fight our opponents.

Repulse : Let's get back to the fight !

But before either the Royal Navy or the Sirens could make a move, they heard some plane noises. But it wasn't Clémenceau's nor Ark Royal's planes as they already landed on their respective riggings.

So they had to look in the sky to see some Ironblood planes firing on the Sirens, who got surprised.

Siren 2629 : What the-

Siren 18290 : Shit !

Siren 1883 : We got ambushed !

And then, a familiar salvo fell on the remaining Sirens, killing and sinking them.

Howe : Looks like Bismarck is here.

Penelope : I didn't know that Graf Zeppelin was with them.

TB : Negative.

Repulse : What ?!

TB : Graf Zeppelin is right now with Essex's team.

King George V : Then, how do we explain those Ironblood planes ?

Clémenceau : ...

Bismarck : Sorry for making you wait, but here we are.

Clémenceau P.O.V

Me and the Royal Navy saw Bismarck and her team approaching, but we didn't recognize some of the girls, as it was the first time we ever saw them.

Queen Elizabeth : While I am glad to see you, where do those planes came from ? Especially since Graf Zeppelin is right now with Essex.

??? : That would be me.

I looked to see a girl in a military outfit with black hair, put in twintails.

Ark Royal : Who are you ?

??? : Oh right. Let me introduce myself. My name is Peter Strasser, or known as "Aircraft Carrier B". I am the second Aircraft Carrier of the Graf Zeppelin-class.

Everyone in the Royal Mavy was surprised by that, except Clémenceau, who heard about the project "Aircraft Carrier B".

Clémenceau : I head about the project "Aircraft Carrier B", but I didn't know she would be here. Especially since she was never built in my world.

Peter Strasser : Interesting. Whenever I have time, I should see about the history of your world.

Valiant : What about the others ?

Weser : My name is Weser. I was supposed to be the fourth Admiral Hipper-class Heavy Cruiser under the name of Seydlitz. But fate had other ideas, and I ended up as an Escort Carrier.

Prinz Heinrich : Hey ! I am Prinz Heinrich, a P-class Heavy Cruiser, and improvement of the Deutschland-class Heavy Cruisers. And this is Eisen, my rigging ! Say hi, Eisen !

The rigging growled as a way to say hello.

Nürnberg : And I am Nürnberg, the second Light Cruiser of the Leipzig-class. Nice to meet you.

Bulldog : I never heard about them.

Clémenceau : Well, apart from Nürnberg, the three others were never built, which is why you might have never heard of them.

Bismarck : That, and the fact that they were in a Mirror Sea that we took control of.

Aurora : But how ?

Tester Beta : I could tell you the details, but because we don't have much time, I will resume it as a way to ambush Compiler.

Peter Strasser : But since we have heard about what had transpired outside of the Mirror Sea, that plan got canceled, and instead, we went back to Kiel to play our role for "Operation Siren".

King George V : But Tester is right, we have to go right now as the Northern Parliament might have trouble.

TB : I can confirm it as they are currently engaging against a Siren fleet next to St. Petersburg.

Z25 : But what about that Mirror Sea ?

Enforcer VIII : Don't worry, Strength will get rid of it.

Arbiter VIII : ...Give me a second...

The Mirror Sea suddenly collapsed due to Arbiter VIII's will, before turning back to the landscape it should have been.

Arbiter VIII : ...Done...

Peter Strasser : Now, we should go. Time isn't on our side right now.

Everyone nodded before going full speed in the Baltic Sea to go help the Northern Parliament.

(Timeskip given to you by the Author watching Date A Live)

Near the Harbor of St. Petersburg, a few hours later :

3rd P.O.V

The Northern Parliament, as well as Foch and Omitter, were defending the harbor from the Sirens. Although they didn't have much trouble, they are still annoyed by the reinforcements.

Pamiat Merkuria : Why can't they give us a break ?!

Tashkent : Maybe because we are in a war.

Sovetskaya Rossiya : At that pace, the ocean floor will only be made of Siren wrecks.

Foch was cleaning the seas thanks to his Super Étendards and Crusaders, but even then, he is annoyed at the reinforcements.

Foch : They are just as invasive as those pesky cockroaches. Do we know about when the reinforcements will come ?

Omitter stop suddenly hearing about reinforcements and remembered the Dreamworld Sirens waiting. But she didn't call them because she was too busy killing the Sirens.

Omitter : Oh ? You wanted reinforcements ? You should have said that sooner !

Sovetsky Soyuz : What ?! Why didn't you called them ?!

Omitter : Too busy killing Sirens !

Yeah, Omitter was having fun killing Sirens right and left with her laser cannon, but decided to bring the Dreamworld Sirens to ease up the work.

Omitter : Anyway, let me bring them.

Omitter snapped her fingers, which made some portals appear behind her. The Sirens got surprised to see red Sirens coming out of the portals, whether they are humanoid or mass-produced.

Siren 2720 : The hell ?!

Omitter : Oy ! See those shitty robots ?!

Dreamworld Siren 2928 : Yes ?

Omitter : Break them just like the machines they are !

Dreamworld Siren 2928 : You heard her ?! Let's fight them !

The rest of the Dreamworld Sirens : YES, MA'AM !!!

The Dreamworld Sirens started the assault. It was pretty effective as the initial shock of the purple Sirens was enough to kill them.

Foch : Let's support them !

Northern Parliament : DA !!!

Siren 1728 : Shit ! Let's go to the west !

Siren 272938 : We can't !

Siren 1728 : What do you mean we can't ?!

Siren 36393 : The west side has been blocked by the Royal Navy and Ironblood  ! We are trapped !

Siren 1728 : FUUUU-

She couldn't finished her sentence as she has been shot in the head by a Dreamworld Siren Heavy Cruiser.

Dreamworld Siren 261 : Less talking, more murdering.

Meanwhile with the Royal Navy and Ironblood, at Finskiy Zaliv :

The coalition fleet between the Royal Navy and Ironblood managed to get to Finskiy Zaliv, last place to pass before getting to St. Petersburg. They managed to quickly get there in a record time.

...

Ok, they actually teleported thanks to Tester Beta, Arbiter VIII and Enforcer VIII to gain time to help the Northern Parliament.

As they got there, they saw some Sirens that were going to St. Petersburg. But since they came from the west, the coalition fleet can trap the Sirens to reduce their chance of escape.

Tester Beta : *smirks* Looks like the Sirens got trapped.

Queen Elizabeth : So, we blocked them ?

Tester Beta : Almost, that's where the Dreamworld Sirens will come in play.

Enforcer VIII : I see what you want to do. Let's call them !

Arbiter VIII : ...Agree...

Meanwhile in the Mirror Sea that was controlled by Ironblood :

The Dreamworld Sirens were busy doing whatever they were doing. Either training to fight, or simply rest.

That was until the screens of the buildings activated themselves, which lead to Tester Beta appearing on the screens.

Tester Beta : Soldiers ! Our time has come to bring the fight to the enemy Sirens ! Ready the portals to come to Finskiy Zaliv to trap the Sirens ! Don't let them escape and kill them if they try to approach you ! FOR OUR FUTURE !!!

The Dreamworld Sirens : FOR OUR FUTURE !!!

Several portals opened, with all the Dreamworld Sirens entering it to go to Tester's actual location.

Back to the coalition fleet :

Tester Beta: *smirks* Here they come.

Some portals appeared behind the coalition fleet. As soon as they appeared, a lot of Dreamworld Sirens got out of it.

Queen Elizabeth : Are those the Dreamworld Sirens that you were mentioning ?!

Enforcer VIII : Yes. They will take their stand here while we advance further to join the Northern Parliament on the other side.

Tester Beta : Well, you know the plan. Execute it.

Dreamworld Sirens : YES, MA'AM !!!

All the Dreamworld Sirens put up a line to make sure that no Sirens will escape the zone without being dead. The coalition fleet advanced towards St. Petersburg, where the Northern Parliament are defending right now.

But thanks to the Dreamworld Siren reinforcements, the Northern Parliament are actually advancing towards where the Royal Navy and Ironblood are right now. It's only a question of time before both groups meet each other.

(Timeskip given to you by the Northern Parliament meeting W I D E Putin)

In the middle of Finskiy Zaliv :

3rd P.O.V

An hour later, both groups managed to destroy 90% of the Siren fleet. They don't know yet that both groups are getting closer to each other in terms of distance. It's only a matter of minutes before they see each other.

Clémenceau was launching a few Alizées and Super Frelons. Some Sirens desperately tried to launch some planes on Clémenceau, only to end destroyed by either his aircraft, turrets or missiles, which also ends up killing the Sirens.

Not far from there, Foch is in the same predicament as Clémenceau, easily asserting his air supremacy while destroying the oncoming Sirens.

It was only five minutes later that Clémenceau could see Foch's planes, but it also works the other way as Foch saw Clémenceau's planes. They finally saw each other before greeting each other.

Clémenceau : Bonjour, mon frère.

Foch : Bonjour à toi aussi.

Clémenceau : Shall we end this together ?

Foch : I thought you would never ask.

The Clémenceau's brothers were launching the rest of their Super Étendards while launching some missiles on the remaining Sirens. None of the Sirens around them survived the attack of the French Aircraft Carriers.

Five minutes later, the Siren fleet attacking St. Petersburg has been confirmed to be entirely destroyed.

The Northern Parliament, the Royal Navy, Ironblood, as well as the Clémenceau's brothers, Tester Beta, Omitter, Enforcer VIII and Arbiter VIII went back to the harbor of St. Petersburg to rest a bit while celebrating their victory over the Siren Fleet while taking back the sectors of the English Channel and the Baltic Sea.

Queen Elizabeth : Good job everyone on this mission !

Sovetskaya Rossiya : Da ! Thank you Comrades for fighting with us !

Bismarck : It's only natural to fight together to show who are the strongest.

King George V : So, what will we do now ?

Avrora : Well, I heard that more of our Comrades from the Northern Parliament are coming here to join us in our quest against the Sirens.

Sovetsky Soyuz : Yes. We are waiting for them, so we can all go back to the Basilica. I hope everything is okay there.

Clémenceau : Well, God and Satan are there to protect it, and knowing their power, the Basilica is in good hands.

Z24 : Hold up ! You're telling me that God and Satan are real ?!

Peter Strasser : Just how much did we missed before coming back to Kiel ?

Bismarck : Quite a lot. I was surprised that you already knew about Charles, Clémenceau and Foch beforehand.

Stremitelny : They seem like good guys !

Gangut : Oh, they are. Just... don't challenge Satan in a drinking contest.

Stremitelny : Why ?

Grozny : You can't beat him. His resistance to alcohol is beyond your understanding. Even after we all lost, he still wasn't drunk.

Foch : Yeah, neither Ironblood nor the Northern Parliament could beat him, and that's saying something when they are known for drinking a lot of beer and vodka respectively.

Bismarck : Don't remind me. I still remember the hangover I got because of this.

Everyone laughed at that before continuing the discussion.

Secret laboratory, in the depths of the Basilica :

Despite the fact that the Basilica became the new main base, there is still one more secret lying underneath its surface.

A secret laboratory that is unknown to everyone except two persons : those persons being God and Satan themselves.

Other than them, no one know about that laboratory. Not even Charles despite his Siren form, not even the Sirens that joined Azur Lane, and not even the Creator himself.

God was seen looking at some papers with some data. Satan was meanwhile experimenting with some vials containing unknown liquids.

God : Hey, Satan.

Satan : What, old man ?

God : I think it's time.

Satan : Time for what ?

God : Time to continue our biggest project.

Satan : Fucking finally ! It's already been ages since we activated Stage 1 !

Satan stopped his experiments before seeing God to talk about their project.

Satan : So, how long before the beginning of Stage 2 ?

God : If everything is going smoothly, we should start Stage 2 in a few days.

Satan : Good. After all, this project's goal is to bring the balance to our world.

God : Yes, this is our biggest project for this world. [REDACTED] is the key for it happen. If it succeed, then we can activate the final Stage. And if it goes well, then, we don't have to worry anymore about the fate of this world, as [REDACTED] will replace us as the guardian of this world.

Satan : Yeah, can't wait to finally live like normal people.

God : Same. Anyway, let's get back to the Basilica. If we are absent for too long, they might think something is going wrong.

Satan : Well, let's go back.

Both God and Satan teleported out of the laboratory. However, they didn't sensed that another being was also present in this room. The being made sure that both left before turning visible again.

The being was none other than Hel, the embodiment of death herself, and the one who gave the scythe bearing the same name to Charles.

She was actually suspicious of both God and Satan's behavior as they were often going in the depths of the Basilica. She managed to get there undetected.

She decided to look around the laboratory until she found the item that was her main interest.

At first, the item looked like a simple folder. But what was interesting her was it's content. She looked to see if there was any kind of trap around before opening the folder. The first page contained nothing other than those three words :

PROJECT : DARKLIGHT IRIS

She decided to read all the data present in the folders before closing it after finishing reading. She was still having her cold expression on her face before chuckling a bit.

Hel : So that's what you were both doing, God and Satan.

She looked around to see if there was anything else linked to the folder but found nothing else.

Hel : I wonder how they will react when they will see the small modifications that have been made concerning [REDACTED].

That was her last words before she teleported out of the laboratory, leaving everything in place.

(A/N) : And that's it for chapter 38. I hope you have enjoyed it. Feel free to leave your feedback and opinion in the comments.

I hope you are all ready, dear Shikikans, for our next big event focusing on the Northern Parliament.

But I think I already know the answer as I can already imagine you dancing on some Russian hardbass.

And if you read this chapter to the end, you have seen that something is going on, but where is the fun in telling you right now ? All you can do is wait for the next chapters to discover the truth.

In any case, thank you for reading this chapter. And see you in the next one.

TheBreizhOne out !
