How do I start a romantic relationship with a ship girl?

"Putting everything else aside, if you were in that situation, how would you handle it?" Hu Teng rolled his eyes and asked.

"Me? I'm confident in my close-quarters combat skills; I'd love for him to come to me..."

"Only someone like you, who has never actually fought him, could say something like that..."

As the two were discussing, the formidable skill was ready to be released.

The giant clock projection gradually solidified, and the speed of the hands above began to slow down. In contrast, Xu Huan's movement to rush towards Ke Wei also began to slow down.

As the clock hands stopped at twelve o'clock overhead, the young man's entire body froze in mid-air, as he rushed forward.

Xu Huan looked at the formidable figure who was only two steps away from him. He tried to take another step forward, but found that no matter how he tried to activate his nerves, his legs seemed to lose control and remained stationary.

This feeling... compared to time stop in the traditional sense, it feels more like being deprived of the ability to act.

The formidable skill won't actually stop time and space, but objects within its range will lose their ability to dodge for a short period of time.

If faced with the firepower of aircraft carrier groups and battleships at this time, it would be no different from being a stationary target.

A very useful support skill.

Xu Huan's evaluation of Ke Wei rose even higher.

Just as the young man had predicted, after discovering that he was in a 'time-stop' state, the ship girl also summoned a round of fighter jets, which began to dive towards the young man's location.

I'll just let you suffer for a short while!

Looking at the young man in front of him who had been successfully controlled in place by his skills, Ke Wei breathed a sigh of relief while also feeling a little smug.

After being brought closer in an instant, her mind went into a brief state of confusion.

Even the fastest destroyers or the ship girls from other factions who are skilled in melee combat seem to be far slower than the young man in front of them.

In the blink of an eye, it can traverse a vast distance and arrive in front of you.

If it were a regular aircraft carrier, it would have virtually no way to deal with this kind of opponent in a one-on-one situation.

Fortunately, after a period of confusion, the experienced warrior instinctively activated his skills.

Fortunately... she is the nemesis of this type of speed.

Even the fastest speeds can be brought under her control at this moment, and countless humanoid sirens have already fallen to her hands because of this.

This time, barring any unforeseen circumstances, the outcome will likely be no different.

Taking advantage of the brief moment he had the youth under control, Ke Wei moved swiftly, and in just a few quick steps, he once again created a considerable distance between himself and the youth.

The aircraft carrier's maneuverability is also very important...

Traditional aircraft carriers are relatively bulky, but ship girls completely eliminate this drawback. Even though their movements are not as agile and swift as those of other ship types, they can still easily create distance.

The roaring fighter jets swept overhead and swooped down in front of the young man. The water bombs and water cannons that had been specially prepared beforehand also began to bombard Xu Huan, who was still standing still.

"The contractor... is going to lose?"

Hindenburg pouted in dissatisfaction, then, as if remembering something, added with a smile, "But it's good this way, he'll probably look quite alluring when he's wet."

In a real battle, Xu Huan could withstand this round, but this is a test field where the rules for winning and losing are very clear: when one side suffers moderate damage, the winner can be decided immediately.

That round of bombing and firing was so intense that it was enough to determine the extent of Xu Huan's defeat.

“That kid encountered this type of skill for the first time, and he was careless and held back a bit at the beginning, so it's normal for him to suffer some losses.” Frederick smiled and looked at Hutten, who was silently standing to the side: “Hutten, what do you think?”

“It’s not that simple…” Hu Teng shook his head.

Guanghui, who was not far away, still had a smile on his face, seemingly not worried about Xu Huan at all.

The roaring fighter jets swooped down, and water bullets and water cannons flew rapidly toward the youth in everyone's eyes, directly and fiercely... passing through various parts of the youth's body.

"Um?!"

Everyone frowned simultaneously.

The water cannon bullets pierced directly through the young man's body, and Xu Huan, who was originally standing in place, was like a false projection that had been pierced through. He was directly transformed into specks of blue light and dissipated in mid-air under the continuous penetration of the water bullets.

"What is this? A fake projection?"

"It feels a bit like..."

"Where did the real contractor go?"

"I don't know... we can't detect any information about him on the radar..."

The moment Xu Huan disappeared, the three members of the Ironblood team instinctively looked at the ship's radar, trying to confirm the young man's current location.

The fearsome one, who was in the middle of the battle, naturally thought of this as well. However, although her radar was a little better than that of the Ironbloods, she still couldn't find any trace of the young man.

The pressure inside him suddenly surged, and Kewei subconsciously looked towards his least guarded spot—behind him.

It was still empty.

"...The target has been lost?"

Suddenly, the young man's voice reached his ears, startling him. Goosebumps immediately rose on his arms. He turned around again and released the [Mechanism Prohibition] once more towards the spot where he had been facing the young man.

The projected clock behind them reappeared, but this time, before the hands above could stop, it was forcibly stopped by a hand that appeared out of nowhere.

"Uh?"

The group of ship girls standing nearby felt somewhat ashamed.

Is this even allowed? Isn't this going a bit too far?

The skill was abruptly stopped before it could be fully unleashed, leaving Ke Wei somewhat stunned.

She had fought countless battles, large and small, on the high seas, but she had never experienced anything as incomprehensible as what lay before her.

His mind was still in a daze, but he subconsciously wanted to make some resistance movements again, only to find that his buttocks were lightly kicked, and then he lost his balance and fell to the ground with a 'thud'.

"Hmm? That voice... it's quite heavy?"

Chapter 182 The Truth About Time Stop

Kewei is very angry now.

It wasn't because he was defeated by Xu Huan, nor was it because Xu Huan lightly kicked his butt that he lost.

Okay, that was the reason at first, but Xu Huan's next words were the final fuse that ignited the powder keg in Ke Wei's heart.

Although it was spoken very softly, the key words "so heavy?" still reached her ears very clearly.

It's important to know that weight is a very sensitive topic for Kewei.

Bringing it up, especially in this context, made Kewei feel a sense of humiliation.

“Commander…” The fearsome man lying on the ground slowly clenched his fist, straightened up as fast as he could in his life, and then came to the young man.

Her red eyes, filled with shame and anger, combined with the imposing aura they contained, and the way the girl suddenly darted in front of him, created an inexplicable sense of oppression.

No, it should be described as an inexplicable sense of oppression.

Looking at the ship girl in front of him, her face flushed and her eyes filled with anger, Xu Huan realized that he had just made a serious mistake and quickly apologized, "Uh... I just saw that you were losing your balance, so I just gave you a push to help. I might have been a little offensive..."

At first, he just wanted to pat the other person on the shoulder.

But why did they later change it to using their feet to aim at their buttocks...?

It can only be said that Xu Huan's vengeful little devil did some strange things back then.

During the battle, Kewei displayed an excessive amount of momentum, and Xu Huan couldn't help but want to suppress his temper. However, Kewei lost his balance and fell to the ground.

“That’s not it… Commander.” Ke Wei glared at the young man, her delicate fist waving vigorously in front of Xu Huan. “You mean the part after that…”

"What do you mean by that sentence?" Xu Huan looked at him as if he didn't know what he was talking about.

"...It's very heavy."

After a long silence, the ship girl bit her lip and finally managed to utter two words.

"that?"

Xu Huan said, looking completely bewildered, "I didn't expect that even though I controlled my strength, it sounded like I kicked so hard... Uh, is there something wrong with that statement?"

"...Is that really what you think?"

Although the young man's explanation sounded rather weak at the moment, coupled with Xu Huan's harmless face and expression, it made it easier to believe him.

The same is true of the fearsome.

After hearing Xu Huan's explanation, she suddenly felt her anger freeze in a limbo.

The other party felt that it sounded so heavy, which meant that they didn't subjectively state their weight... but rather thought that they kicked too hard.

So everything that just happened was just something I imagined?

What's with defeating your opponent and then mercilessly mocking their weight...?

Now that I think about it carefully, it seems that it was necessary.

After all, they are your own commanders, how can a commander mock his own ship girls?

Kewei thought about it more and more and felt that she might have wronged Xu Huan because she was too sensitive. But since she had already rushed up to him in a huff, she had to find a way to save face as soon as possible.

"...Let's let it go this time, but next time...don't kick my butt like that, understand?!" The pink fist gently waved in front of Xu Huan. Seeing that Illusion and the three Ironblood ship girls were almost close, Formidable resumed her previous proper demeanor and showed a slight smile.

I can't let Sister Guanghui know what I look like, or I'll get another lecture.
