08:55 after the cafe chat between both Louis and Inazuma, the duo are strolling around again, but this time, they're at the arcade.

With so many games to play in public, Louis pulled out her phone with a grin.

"Hey, Inazuma-san, have you ever played a videogame before?"

"Hm… I did. It was with the nice Teitoku and my friends who played these kinds of stuff with me."

"Really, huh? Well today's your lucky day, Inazuma, because we're going to party at the arcade!" Louis is introducing arcade to an inexperienced kanmusu.

"Wow! Now my friends are gonna be so jealous! Even though I don't intend to." Worried as Inazuma might end up with too many questions once she had fun with the admiral outside the base.

"Relax. Let's start with something simple, okay?" Louis asked.

"Nanodesu." Inazuma nods while preparing herself to play a single game in public.

While starting with a crane, both Louis and Inazuma had won a plush cat as it was now Inazuma's to keep.

The next game they tried is a shooting which caused Inazuma to freak out and instantly shoot them on screen. This resulted in her getting a high score, beating someone that had millions of points.

Next is driving as Louis is cheering for Inazuma, but is saddened that she failed to beat the time. At least it was fun.

And finally, they played a multiplayer fighting game in the arcade against a middle aged man who was button mashing in order to win against Inazuma. Then Inazuma had won a fight with a KO and both girls cheered. The middle aged man smiled as he and Inazuma shook hands after he gave her a bar of chocolate as a gift.

09:30, both Inazuma and Louis laughed together after having fun at the arcade.

"This is amazing, Teitoku, nanodesu!" Inazuma is now full of energy after playing around at the arcade.

"You said it. Man, if I'd have invited your friends around, you all could have fun together. It would've been even greater." Louis chuckles while experiencing with someone.

As the duo finally rest together, Louis is thinking more for Inazuma to learn and enjoy as well as eating a bag of a single rice ball.

Louis caught a glimpse of someone who approached her and Inazuma.

"Hey, look! It's Louis-chan!" A gal called.

"Tch." Clicking her tongue as Louis stayed silent about a gal and 2 of her friends.

"Eh? You know her, Teitoku?" Inazuma asked out of worry.

"No…" Lied the Admiral who refused to have a reunion with another human girl.

"Are you a foreigner?"

"No… I'm a half-breed." Now that's the truth Louis bought up.

A gal and her group appeared in front of both the Admiral and a shipgirl.

"Aww, what's wrong, Louis-chan? Are y'all not happy to see your favourite classmate?" The gal leader asked while making that saddened facial expression in front of the duo.

"That girl isn't replying." Gal 2 sighed.

"Excuse me. Um… Are you friends with Teitoku?" Inazuma is curious to know about the gal group.

"Why of course, little boat! And you're that Kanmusu who's both famous and infamous around the world. Looks like we finally met in person, little boat!" Gal 1 mockingly greeted Inazuma while pulling her cheek.

"Really? A pile of screws and bolts!? Outside!? Man looks like someone's an even bigger loser than ever, aren't you 'Teitoku!?'" Gal 3 scoffed.

After a gal called Louis a 'bigger loser,' the gal group laughed as Inazuma stood up from the bench.

"She's not! Teitoku is a kind person!"

"What do you mean, little boat? Ain't she too young to join the navies? I bet she played with the boys there!" Gal 1 smugly asked while flicking Inazuma's head.

"No. There's no boys in the Naval base, only girls." Inazuma pointed out the base's recent environment.

"Aww… Then I bet 'Teitoku' is still a virgin!" Gal 1 jeered.

"And you got a problem with that?" Louis mutters without even budging herself.

"Now listen up, we know who kanmusus are, but there's one thing we don't like touching is a pile of scrap who tries to act like us humans! Why don't y'all go back if you're too much of a coward!" Sneered as gal 1 poked Inazuma at her heart.

Inazuma then backs away slowly as it triggers Louis. Then Inazuma dashes away from the laughing group.

"Oi! Inazuma-san!" Louis shouted after losing a shipgirl who feared those humans.

Then turning her head with a glare, Louis couldn't fathom the fact that her friend is being insulted and berated, just like Louis on her first day.

"Hm? So you respond." Gal 2 spoke out.

"Hey, you three, especially you, Kanako Kyouko-san, bullying me is one thing, but hurting Inazuma and other kanmusu is where I draw the line!" Louis growled, while not pulling out a gun but she's thinking of something else. "The only one who bullies the kanmusus is me! I'll be the one to scrap them all! Let's have a duel."

"Huh? And what are y'all going to do 'bout it?" Asked Kyouko while waiting for Louis to find a solution.

"I CHALLENGE YOU TO A DANCE OFF!"

As silence between the 4 were getting awkward to Louis, the gal group laughed so hard about Louis' declaration of a duel.

"But you're an otaku, how the hell are you going to do something physical on an arcade game?" Gal 3 exclaimed.

"I may not be quick and strong, but I ain't as stupid as you are, and that's coming from a Teitoku with below 70 marks!" Louis is now doing the same as the gals; jeering at them.

After what Louis said, Kyouko threw her jacket off and put herself on a dancing board next to Louis who's already prepared.

"OH IT'S ON, YOU DUMBASS!" Kyouko shouted while preparing herself.

Before the dance begins, Louis is now worried that Inazuma would end up lost in this city.

"Hang in there, Inazuma-san…"


Outside in the middle of Shibuya city, wandering around the city is Inazuma who was hanging on the alleyway, lost all alone.

"Why? It hurts…" Panting as Inazuma is bursting out tears.

Then she pulls up and stares at a plush cat with a frown. She slowly understands why her Admiral remains either positive or neutral towards shipgirls such as her.

Now she's in the middle of nowhere, not knowing where she's going.

At the tower rooftop, a brunette is eating a packet of taiyaki while watching the whole city. As her ahoge twitches, footsteps from behind are coming towards her while the breeze is still blowing.

"You seemed lonely over there, kuma." Kuma is continuing eating while speaking to a darker brunette who put down her riggings, Shigure.

"What do you mean? I just came here to feel the breeze. I hope it doesn't rain." Shigure sighed while laying on the floor of a rooftop.

"As always, Shigure-chan, you never give me a real reason why you never wanted to come back to the base, kuma."

"What's it to you? You kept on wandering around Japan without telling me."

Kuma halted her snack and then stood up from sitting on the edge of the roof. What Kuma does is very questionable to shipgirls as she answers to Shigure.

"It's simple, I want to see if a kanmusu that belongs to a certain Teitoku beat me in a duel and then that said Teitoku will have Kuma." Kuma smiled as she squats down in front of Shigure. "I bet your sisters had left you in exchange for going back to base that isn't in Yokosuka Naval Base, kuma."

"How did you… Oh." Now Shigure remembered that she let her sisters go which caused her to be alone.

"Some day, you'll find your reason for coming back to us, kuma." Kuma then leaves for a final word and hop off the rooftop.

After Kuma left, Shigure pulled out her cannon and stared right in front of it with a very cold expression.

"Hmph, I doubt it… I'll kill Teitoku myself, even if it breaks the code of kanmusu. Without dissent, without shame, without regret."


Back to Inazuma who was lost in the middle of Shibuya, she knew she shouldn't have run away from the Admiral after what she's been told earlier.

Now all she has to do is to search in the middle of a crowd.

"Hawawawa, Teitoku!? Where are you, Teitoku!"

"Hm?" A young man stopped after hearing a voice calling for the Admiral as he's following Inazuma's voice by getting past some people.

With Inazuma wandering around and calling for the Admiral, she then stops unknowingly at the alleyway and rests there.

"Teitoku…"

"Huh? Inazuma-chan? What're you doing out there? I thought you sunked." A young man in a leather coat asked while looking concerned and relieved to see her.

Inazuma then stares at the man blankly, identifying a lanky looking guy with a few punk-like features he's wearing.

"Erm… Do I know you?"

"What? You don't remember me!? It's me, Aoi Ryuuji, the Teitoku!" Ryuuji points at himself while trying to get Inazuma back to his base.

"You don't look like Teitoku." Said Inazuma.

"I figured you'd say that… My Inazuma is a constructed one who usually hangs out with her sisters." Ryuuji sighed as he took a seat next to Inazuma. "So… Who is your Teitoku exactly?"

"Oh, um… She said she's half-breed. She also had long black hair with some twisted side locks on one side, and wore glasses, nanodesu."

"A female Teitoku, huh? And I thought Sora's the only female one around here."

"Sora?" Inazuma is curious about who Sora is.

"My little sister, also a Teitoku. She usually scolds me for being careless towards the kanmusu. And no it's not because of my looks! People judged me for being too abusive to kanmusus when this bigger asshole at Yokosuka Naval Base caused you girls to run away."

As Ryuuji clenched his fist and wished to deal with the Admiral he's told about, he then patted Inazuma's head while making sure that she's safe after his Inazuma sunk.

"We'll find your Teitoku. Do you have a phone?" Ryuuji picked out his phone while asking Inazuma.

"Not really." Inazuma unfortunately answered.

"I knew it… Here." Ryuuji pulled out another one which had a wallpaper of Inazuma and her sisters.

Inazuma gasped and witnessed that this photo resembles her past, bringing back her memories of how she and her older sisters are playing together, fighting together, eating together and sleeping together.

"I know it's the other you's phone. Take care of it will ya." Ryuuji spoke out.

Inazuma is bursting out tears, knowing that she missed her sisters so much.

"Thank you, nanodesu…"

"You're welcome. Now let's go. I'm looking for Murakumo-chan, just like you're looking for your Teitoku." Ryuuji picks himself up as he's strolling off to find his kanmusu.

"Murakumo-san!? Sure, Aoi-san, nanodesu!" Inazuma then followed the punk like man who is now searching for two things; his shipgirl and her Admiral.


A little earlier at the arcade, Louis had gained victory with Kyouko being close.

Both Louis and Kyouko are panting with exhaustion as some people are cheering that a bespectacled girl has beaten a gal.

"I won…" Louis smiled as she's still panting.

"This is so not fair! I DEMAND A REMATCH!" Kyouko yelled as she pointed at Louis.

"Aww, what's the matter? Looks like you've been beaten by an 'otaku!'" Rubbing it in on Kyouko, Louis bends over towards an angry gal.

"No way…" Gal 2 gasped in shock after seeing her lead friend being beaten by spectacles for the first time.

"But how!? How did she do that!?" Gal 3 exclaimed.

"That'll teach you to mess with Inazuma-san! Now I have to find her!" Louis then took off by dashing towards the entrance.

After Louis left the arcades, Kyouko picked herself up and was trying to chase her down. Finally at the doorway, a long haired silhouette zoomed towards Kyouko who's now calling out.

"Hey! Wai-"

What stops Kyouko from trying to get her is a swiss army knife that got on her neck.

"Move along, doll face. Teitoku's mine." A girl with a mouth mask hissed.

What appears before the gal trio is a pale, long black haired girl that wears a black mask on her mouth, and wears a black tank top and jeans.

"Wh- who are y'all?" Panting as Kyouko feared getting sliced by a masked girl.

"The hell? You girls look like sluts, even that bitch looks and dresses better than you clowns!" The familiar looking masked girl is flabbergasted by the gals and the way they look.

"Just answer the damn question, you emo looking freak!" Gal 2 shouted which caused her arm to get twisted by a pale hand that has fingerless gloves on. "AIIIEEEEE!"

"Fine. I have no choice but to answer then, stupid clowns." The masked girl is putting her folded knife back in her pocket. "Um… Hey, Ru, what's my name again?" Whispered the masked girl who is struggling with a disguise name.

[Really!? God… Think of a name yourself, because I'm not doing everything for you!]

"Shit! It's um… Ka-... Or… I… Yes! Kaori!" The masked girl who was suspiciously Ka-class named herself 'Kaori' in order to disguise herself.

"Kaori, huh. Then tell me, why the hell are y'all stopping me from catching Louis-chan!?" Asked Kyouko after sweating like a drop of bullets.

"So Teitoku's name is Louis? I see." Ka-class, Kaori, didn't know that the Admiral is a different native.

"Answer my question!"

"Because I'm working to capture Teitoku, dead or alive, and I'd rather her being dead!" Kaori answered as she's crouching down. "Now, if you excuse me, I'm off to catch my promotion, sayonara!"

After saying goodbye, Kaori then dashes all the way through the exit and then leaps as high as she could without equipping her body into an abyssal submarine. Then she dives down as she forgot that she's not supposed to do it when there's water on the block.

"Oh fu- GUH!"

Landing on the ground as Kaori had given herself a nosebleed and scraped her arms from diving.

[This is why you never get a promotion… Unlike your cowardly little sister, you're just an idiot who thinks about straight up assassinating Teitoku.]

"Ow… It's not my fault that I'm a frigging submarine who was repeatedly shot by a bunch of shells as well as getting my ass handed by a couple of kanmusus! And besides, being punished is the worst!" Kaori groaned.

Kaori then picked herself up while on her knees in the middle of the path as it got more spacious than before.

A different footstep has appeared right next to Kaori.

"Hey, cutie, are you alone? I won't hurt you, I just wanna help you relax." Said a different man while patting Kaori's pale shoulder.

This man had unfortunately met with brute strength on his left hand. His scream has been caught by certain people in this city including the gal trio.

"Piss off, ya freak of a human being!" Kaori growled while glaring at a man with cold blue eyes.

"Okay! Please! Let go!"

As the man is set free, he flees away from the masked one who's gotten to the point that she wished to kill anyone around her. Then it's searching and assassinating on foot for Kaori right now.


09:45, Louis is calling out for Inazuma while searching in the middle of the crowd as she enters the scramble cross.

"Damn it… Where are you? It feels lonely…" Stopped as Louis crouched down and covered her ears in fear.

She can hear many voices in her head as there's too many of them to count, which caused her headache to worsen than before. She then shivers while many people march past her like it's an endless maze of locusts. The voices are loud, the air is getting unpleasant and the world around her is getting dark as Louis's fear is about to break.

"I'm scared… Where are you, Inazuma… Please, help me!"

But no one came...

"Teitoku!" A voice called as it woke Louis up.

"Huh? Who's there?"

Standing back up as Louis can hear a voice still calling, saving her from being lonely again.

Approaching a voice while going past a crowd, Louis halted and poked a silver haired girl who still calls out for the Admiral.

"Hey, you're Murakumo-san, right?" Asked Louis.

As a silver haired girl in casual clothing such as a long jumper (for now) is turning around, she then stares at a bespectacled Admiral in casual clothes while being confronted with someone she doesn't even know.

"Eh!? Who are you!? You're not Teitoku!" Exclaimed Murakumo as she backs away from Louis.

"I may not look like it, but I am Teitoku."

"You can't be! You don't look like a tall guy who dresses like a weird punk!"

Murakumo described her Admiral's appearance which had Louis flabbergasted, but remained calm as she questioned Murakumo bitterly.

"Since when do I look like a punk?"

"Point taken. I'm sorry." Apologised as Murakumo remembered that there are multiple Admirals outside of Yokosuka Naval Base. "But who are you?"

"I'm Louis Amano or Amano Louis if you preferred the latter. I'm looking for Inazuma-san, have you seen her?" Louis answered and asked.

Murakumo heard about a fellow shipgirl being with a different Admiral as she grabbed both Louis' arms.

"Say that again!"

"Ah. Um… I'm looking for Inazuma-san." Reluctantly doing it again, Louis had realised Murakumo's reaction about Inazuma is still alive. "So you're glad?"

"Yeah… Tell me! How is she!?"

"She's missing because my idiot classmates harassed Inazuma-san."

"Damn it." Murakumo sighed as she pulled out her phone.

"Hold on! Is that a phone?" Louis had witnessed a shipgirl owning a phone with surprise.

"Yeah. Why?"

"Call Inazuma!"

"Eh? But our Inazuma already sunked… " Murakumo's mood had lowered after having flashbacks of losing her Inazuma. "Also don't you have one of these!?"

"Yeah, but I don't have her number, so just try it. I bet your Teitoku must've had it with him."

"But he never does." Murakumo is worried that it could be a lie. "Fine. But if no one answered, then that's it."

The phone rings with Murakumo calling Inazuma from her old phone.

It answered.

[Hello? This is Inazuma, nanodesu!]

Both Murakumo and Louis gasped in surprise about Inazuma on her phone, but Louis is worried that it could be her ghost.

"Inazuma-chan! It's me, the one who's with Ryuuji-kun!" Murakumo called with excitement.

[Eh!? Murakumo-san!? And Aoi-san is with you!?] Inazuma too is surprised that Murakumo is calling on the phone.

"Yeah. He was."

[Um... I was with Louis-chan before!] Said Inazuma.

"HUH!?" Louis exclaimed.

[HUH!?] Ryuuji exclaimed behind the phone at the same time.

"Really!? Then where are you!?" Asked Murakumo while dragging Louis and let go of her which led the Admiral to follow her.

[Um, I'm at the alleyway with Aoi-san.] Inazuma answered.

"Wait here, Amano-san and I are coming over there!"

[Nanodesu!]

The phone hangs up.

"We gotta go, Amano-san! Inazuma-chan and Teitoku are waiting for us!" Murakumo rushes to the alleyway without taking a break.

"Ah, right! Wait! I can't run as fast as you!" Shouted Louis while pulling the effort into following a slender shipgirl.

Something is not right as Louis is hurrying through the alleyway, a couple of stalkers are armed and behind.

On the pathway while staring at the alleyway, Kaori pulled up her mask and hid the torpedoes by making them invisible inside her.

"There you are, Teitoku. Today, you'll be my first human corpse to be taken as a prize!" Kaori hissed while walking forward.

At a different rooftop, Shigure is carrying all her riggings while glaring at the alleyway.

"Teitoku, have you seen the rain? Well too bad, you'll see it in your grave once I kill you. I'm sorry, Murakumo-san, but she outlived her leadership." Said Shigure as she's leaping onto another building. "Is it wrong for a kanmusu to use these on land? Because we're specifically made for water battles."
