As the Aircraft Carrier approached ever closer, Kaga, much to the slight protest from Akagi, had let her Kitsune deploy some planes to see how its defenses would work, and would be shocked at what happened next. As the planes began rising from the runways, they were immediately shot down with ease with what seemed to be AA guns. "How?! In that distance?" Kaga thought to herself as no AA gun was capable of such a thing. She commanded her Kitsune to assume a defensive stance towards the foreign warship, wary of its defensive and offensive capabilities.

Cleveland took this chance to quickly grab Unicorn and move her to a much safer place, away from the fox sisters. Cleveland gently sat Unicorn down and looked at her with concern as she raised her voice to be hearable through the loud sound of the aircraft circling above them."Are you alright, Unicorn?"Unicorn considerably calmed down as she was now out of harm's way. She looked at Cleveland's eyes and gave her a little nod and pulled her into a hug. The other Eagle Union ships decided that the aircraft will be doing them no harm since it hasn't done so in a while, so now they have to focus on the approaching aircraft.

The kitsune sisters of the Sakura Empire and the shipgirls of the Eagle Union gave each other a little truce since there was a new piece on the board, and they had no idea of its intentions. Friend or foe? Who knows? Certainly not them.

It was then that as the warship approached even closer, Akagi noticed how fast the ship was going, it was a lot faster than any of the warships of the 2 factions of Azur Lane and Crimson Axis… "This is certainly getting more concerning by the minute, wait, is that a human on the ship?" Much to her surprise, a man was controlling the warship, and his attire suggests that he's a very high-ranking person in the navy. "Why is he here? Doesn't he know that he's more likely to die here than a shipgirl? Well… given the range of his AA guns and his aircraft, I feel like he can handle himself just fine." Akagi conceded in her mind with a nod, her expression unchanging from its smugness.

Seeing the man steering the ship on the flight deck certainly surprised the ones looking, but figured that it wouldn't matter at all.

Swann hummed as the Phalanx shot down Kaga's planes with ease. He casually cruised along to the location of the shipgirls before he had an epiphany. "Wait, can I somehow make a wisdom cube and make myself a `shipboy`? Hmm…" Swann thought deeper on the possibilities of such a thing. If he succeeds, then the situation will certainly be much more dramatic. "Eh, screw it." He let go of the steering wheel and mentally commanded the Raptor to `continue circling the shipgirls, perform evasive maneuvers if needed. Do not engage.`

With that done, he thought of the wisdom cube to see if even making metaphysical objects was possible. He focused deeper, recalling all of his past knowledge on such an object and put them all into the creation process. He then remembered that it contained the thoughts, ideals, and beliefs of humanity, but he is just one person. "Eh, let's see if it works." He thought to himself as he began creating the cube with its needed components, slightly unsure that he can even create concepts of thought and belief…"The hell? It worked?"Swann muttered to himself in no small amount of surprise as an actual wisdom cube manifested on his hands. For the next part, he decided to do something risky. Since the ship is now neurally connected to him, will he be also affected in the process?

Swann let out a small sigh as he noticed he's getting much closer to his intended location. "Best to move it to a later date." He thought to himself as the wisdom cube dissipated from his hands into nothingness. 2 large speakers materialized beside him and a microphone on his hand. He testingly tapped on it and the speakers repeated the sound with a much louder volume that would hurt a normal person's ears in close proximity. Swann gave a nod and took a deep breath before loudly speaking up to the mic, the sound reverbing onto the ocean and into the shipgirls' ears."This is the USS Nimitz, requesting for a cease fire between the opposing sides of Eagle Union and Sakura Empire."Now all he has to do is continue on course and hope that they don't attack him nor his ship.

"USS? Is he with Eagle Union?" Akagi questioned herself Right after the aircraft finally left their vicinity by flying back to the carrier, dematerializing in red pixels as it came within 200 meters of the warship, finally getting rid of the very loud sound coming from it.

The Eagle Union shipgirls looked at each other in confusion, they've never had any ship with that name, much less one as advanced as that one. Javelin and Ayanami stared at each other. One with pleading eyes while the other is with uncertainty. They reluctantly holstered their respective weapons and headed on over to the Fox sisters to ask that they commence a cease fire, though they approached Akagi since she looked more approachable than Kaga. "Akagi-san, can we stop fighting for now? I'm a little curious about who the man is and what he wants with us."

Akagi hummed at the question from Ayanami. The man did ask them for a cease fire, and he hasn't done any offensive moves against them, not to mention the level of technology he possesses… Akagi made up her mind. "Hm, I suppose that would be the best option~"

To be continued…

School kept me away from this the entire day, and I apologize for that. Not to mention that I have to rewatch AL and figure out how each of the characters react and their personalities.

Please tell me any suggestions and mistakes I made, and I will do my best to follow and correct them. :)
