Chapter 276 - Support

After I was registered here, I was incredibly fortunate because during my training, I became the top Commander, surpassing all new recruits, thanks to the abilities I had gained.

Grand Crafter (II), Grand Designer (II)

So now I cut down all the participants and became the top of the leaderboard, surpassing everyone in command and tactical maneuvers. All nations invited me to be their commander, but I chose the Northern Parliament.

All the Soviet Union's top brass celebrated with many applause and praised me for my good choice. However, this created envy among the other big three and nations around the world. The most important part was when they accepted me as the Commandant. The final session here was a gathering where all Commandants were assembled in a large arena.

Here we saw our Ship Girls, who we would command, and I received five Ship Girls:

1 Destroyer, 1 Light Cruiser, 1 Heavy Cruiser, 1 Large Cruiser, and 1 Battleship.

Soobrazitelny, Chapayev, Kursk, Kronshtadt, Sovetsky Soyuz.

"Comrade Commander!" They saluted me. Even though I wore a mask to cover my face, I returned their salute. Another Russian Commandant beside me had some Ship Girls who were a bit jealous because I received five as a newbie, while typically you get 2-3, and 3 is considered rare. Getting 5 instantly was something special.

Given that I was the top on the leaderboard in every possible capability, my Ship Girls had the best commander on their roster.

It seems my HQ will have eternal winter and will always be cold, so I adjusted my clothing accordingly.

When I removed my mask and revealed my face, the world seemed to stop. The top commander of the era was an absolutely stunning individual, wearing a Harbinger coat and a Russian-colored Commander Formal outfit.

My glowing red eyes, like the most beautiful rubies in the world, were captivating, making me look like a prince from a distant land inspecting the area. My god-like stature and dominating aura added to my charisma.

After the briefing, I turned around and gently looked at the Ship Girls I led.

"Briefing is over. I request your communication and cooperation under my command. Don't worry about defeat or any injuries; I promise to bring absolute victory and perfect results without a single scratch on your rigging or bodies. Dear Comrades." I finished the briefing and then drew all the stats, abilities, and crucial details about the Ship Girls' physiology in the air, as if painting with the air as my canvas.

"This is a summary of your total capabilities. From this summary, we will have a baseline before your skills improve through missions and other activities. I will strive to enhance your overall abilities, including both rigging and non-rigging. Your rigging is very outdated and inefficient." I used Electron Magic to create a digital interface and handed it to the Ship Girls.

"Your important task after each mission is to report reviews on the improvements you've gained, then use them in the field and compare them to this baseline. The baseline can change depending on the enhancements you achieve. Don't worry, I've connected it to your Neural Rigging, so you can access it anytime you want, like this." A digital interface appeared and disappeared in my hand, showcasing next-level cutting-edge technology.

"No need for phones or overly complicated communication technology. It's linked with the Wisdom Cube at your core, making it difficult to hack. Any attempt to hack it would cause a buzzing noise in your head and it has high-level antivirus protection. That's all, any questions besides private ones? If you have private questions, we can discuss them at HQ. If not private, please go ahead."

By showing my advanced technological skills, I made several commanders feel less confident in their abilities, while I casually chatted with my Ship Girls as if I'd known them since their creation.

We arrived at our HQ, which was like Snezhnaya but more advanced, and I loved the cold atmosphere.

My task now was to win World War II for the Soviet side by defeating the Axis members: Japan, Germany, Italy, and if necessary, Britain and the USA.

Our HQ was close to Britain, Germany, and some parts of Europe, but the main base in Moscow wasn't too far, allowing for extended communication.

Instead of waiting for orders, I immediately went on a mission with my five Ship Girls before receiving official orders. While they prepared, I joined them on my ship, a gift from the Soviet Union.

I had quickly modified the ship, making it a special command ship, a pit stop, or a resupply point for my Ship Girls when we weren't at HQ. My plan was to turn it into a mobile HQ, but I needed more resources for that, so this mission was my first step towards creating a big mobile HQ.

I designed it like Alicorn but larger, similar to Moonlight Throne, with better amphibious capabilities.

Following the example of Rhodes Island, I aimed to create a fast-moving, versatile base suitable for all terrains, with the key focus on Siren technology. This was crucial, and I intended to win decisively.

I could see my Ship Girls were very comfortable with my efficient and quick command. I was very pleased with this.

Plus, earning three times the usual gains and a tenfold bonus was a great initial boost.

We completed the skirmish and recon perfectly. The Ship Girls returned to my ship, unscathed, with no scratches on their rigging or clothes.

"Good job, Comrade Madames. Your performance is elegant, though it still needs a bit of improvement. But don't worry, I greatly appreciate your efforts." I let them rest and received orders from the Soviet Union HQ. I had already sent a report before the news arrived, as if I knew the Soviet plan.

The HQ was delighted with my bravery and the excellent report. After sending it, I upgraded the five Ship Girls to a more modern level, advancing from 20th-century technology to 21st-century.

Thanks to supplies with high-density processed metal, top-quality metal ore, ingots, and ore materials, I upgraded their rigging, increased their bullet performance, and improved their Neural Rigging control systems.

The implementation process was like a massage; I had to physically upgrade them, which might sound odd, but I focused purely on their upgrades, not on any romantic or sexual intentions. They are my "baby girls," and I care for them like my own Ship Girls in a greater arc.

After the upgrade, I noticed their baseline performance improved significantly. While others made progress in small steps, we took ten steps at a time, which was excellent.

It was time for training. What would typically take months, we finished in a few hours. I saw their abilities and potential grow rapidly.

I wasn't harsh in training; I was gentle, attentive, and never raised my voice, even when they made mistakes.

Their mastery and potential developed quickly with the new rigging and system. Their skill understanding also improved swiftly, though lacking a Primo Sensei would have been better.

"Good job, rest up. We'll be out of action for the next two days because we started our mission early, surprising the central government. So, other commanders will be on missions while we rest. I'm taking a break, Comrade Madames." I went to rest, which meant modifying my ship. It was time to run a simulation, drawing inspiration from Admiral Yi's ship, Alicorn, Moonlight Throne, and other high-tier ships.

I aimed for a faster, more agile, powerful, and fortress-like ship on the sea. After constructing this giant ship, I was satisfied and only needed a final check. The ship resembled Storm Border, but it was fine—a sword ready to pierce all enemies.

I went to the dorm to sleep, looking forward to the next day. When I woke up, I received new Ship Girls from the central HQ, completing the entire North Parliament set.

"Welcome to my HQ, Comrades." I saluted them in my pajamas since I wasn't wearing my official uniform.

"Comrade Commander!"

"Let's get to the point. We have a mission to launch an attack within three days. And I declare..." I created an energy blade with red lightning and slashed towards the central HQ, leveling it to the ground. Then I restored the land, leaving no trace of buildings.

"We no longer need this place as our HQ. Come with me." They were astonished by my ability to demolish and restore the entire area.

When we reached the coast, I rested and looked at them.

"Our HQ is now the Mothership Dobrynya." As I said this, a massive ship emerged from the water, looking like a space ship with advanced technology beyond current knowledge.

"Let's board and leave. I've already transferred all your belongings to the Mothership, so don't worry about anything missing. Any questions? If not, let me show you your dorms. Some of you may want separate rooms or shared ones according to your preferences, but don't worry, the interior is not like a labyrinth or maze." Though they couldn't comprehend what had just happened, we entered and saw it was similar to Storm Border, with dormitory faculties from Azur Lane. All corridors were connected and not confusing. I designed it like a cruise ship and a battleship.

"Strolling around is done. If you need me, I'll be in the Command Center. Dobrynya, Strait of Dover." The ship moved like a speedboat, and I went to the Command Center to lead.

"Comrade Commander!" I turned my chair to see the Ship Girls watching me eat comfortably.

"Hmmm? Is there a problem?"

"... Do you have a plan, Commander?"

"For this assault, we're going to bring down Iron Blood and make the Nazi Empire surrender. We're moving ten steps ahead. This mission is my own, no orders from the central command. They waste manpower and resources, so I'm taking a faster approach."

"Isn't this a suicide mission?"

"Suicide is not a plan. Ah, you're still new, aren't you? Alright, I'll show you why I'm at the top of the Commander Regime leaderboard." And sure enough, we completely decimated Iron Blood, forcing the Nazi Empire to surrender unconditionally in a flawless four-hour assault.

The Soviet Union was completely caught off guard by my boldness in defeating Iron Blood with less than 30 Ships. Now, with supplies from this so-called suicide mission, I launched an assault on France the next day, obliterating their Naval and Navy forces without a scratch. The French government surrendered to the Soviet Union, and the central command was stunned by my rapid progress.

But there was more.

Three days later, the Royal Navy fell. We assaulted and defeated them in an impossible seven-hour siege and skirmish. We won thanks to my direct command and our Mobile HQ.

The next day, we quickly conquered Italy before they could launch a counterattack. Our speed was like a swift sword.

The Soviet Union was now dominating, thanks to my frontal assaults. Even the Eagle Union and Sakura Empire were worried. The next day, we conquered China without any fuss and rested near the Japanese Empire, encircling them.

I amassed a vast amount of raw materials and resources, using them to upgrade my Ship Girls to a high level, with technology already touching the 21st century. I didn't want them to be outdated.

During these two days of rest, we held several parties. My Ship Girls were delighted, receiving high praise from the central command for their fantastic performance. Meanwhile, other commanders from my academy days were now forgotten and discarded as useless.

Then we attacked the Sakura Empire, conquering it in just four hours. The empire surrendered perfectly. Our final target was the USA. We launched a full assault, destroying the Eagle Union in under an hour.

The Soviet Union became the sole victor of World War II.

For glorious Mother Russia, I fucking WON!

We returned to Moscow and were welcomed with a massive celebration by the military elite. We were treated like heroes of the Soviet Union and even better as Baba Yaga.

A peace treaty was formed thanks to my bold actions, and I received a medal for it.

It was a normal recognition but felt deeply meaningful. I was now regarded as the God of the Battlefield by the Russian people, and my Mothership became an official Naval Base under my control.

We took this opportunity to vacation in the Caribbean, enjoying some swimsuit fun.

"Commander!"

"Yes, have fun." I enjoyed seeing them having fun. Although we had only met for a few days, more accurately ten days, we were like heroes in this world. I received many offers from the Eagle Union, Royal Navy, Sakura Empire, Iron Blood, Dragon Empery, Iris Libre, Vichya Dominion, and Sardegna Empire to be their commander. I approved and let them send their Ship Girls to me.

I was grinding and now collecting all my Ship Girls. My pelvis would definitely be in danger as many Ship Girls had crushes on me. Not to brag, but they really did have crushes.

What they mainly liked about me was my attention to every single one of them. From their health, missions, training, habits, hobbies, duties, and even their shenanigans, I paid attention to everything. Thanks to Marshal of Heaven Fable, I managed to unite them despite their disagreements.

Was there a night attack? Every single night, yes. That's why I always locked my room with ten layers, even though they could break through. Don't underestimate the absurd power of Ship Girls—they're ships with high explosive power, and with the enhancements I gave them, they could break a pelvis with one slam.

So I had to be highly cautious. I wasn't a horny man for now.

"Commander, play!" I nodded and played with them. They were happy, but was there a scene where I applied sunscreen? Don't count on it; I was too lazy. I wore casual clothes, not swimwear, fearing they might faint upon seeing my body.

When we returned to the Mothership, all the ships arrived, and thanks to modifications, the dorm was now big enough to contain literally all the nation's Ship Girls.

"Wow, too many of them, huh?"

"Commander!" They saluted me, and I saluted back.

"…" I silently assessed them all. My gaze pierced their souls, creating an awkward and silent atmosphere. No sound could be heard, only calm breaths, but the tension was visible. The longer I assessed them, the more tension built up.

The anxiety grew insane as the majority of the girls quietly broke into a sweat. Something was incredibly wrong with my silence, something really and definitely wrong.

I completely locked in, not blinking, making them verge on fear. Even my Russian Ship Girls grew anxious. The quietness made them feel something was definitely wrong, but it actually was.

[Yes, perhaps the Sirens will come in just three days.]

'I see, so I can spare my time to build my Ship Girls more.'

[Indeed, you should stop; they will break down if you continue.]

'Okay.'

I blinked, then smiled at them.

"Alright, Before we start, I need to modify your rigging and train you all. I've already built the baseline stats in your dorm. You can check them as the previous actions I did. I apologize for wrecking my brain to speed up the proper items for you. Please, follow your sisters for a little tour around the mothership."

"Yes, Commander." I walked leisurely to the control room without mentioning the perfect timeline, which is now.

Satan and I had discussed that the timeline I was in was the most perfect one sought by Observer Zero, where the Fate Weaver, or the one who decided fate, was none other than me—the MC.

The benefit of fanfic, anyway, let's go help the other unfortunate data. But the major point was Awakening. Due to my tampering with the Wisdom Cube, which granted them "Progression of Technology," their systems naturally developed, and their rigging naturally upgraded. This made my timeline the prime timeline, where Steel Leviathan or Virus monsters leaked and assimilated with some abyss monsters.

The fact that I paid the most attention to them made their "Cognition" and memory different from others. While other commanders treated them as tools and lewd objects, I treated them as normal girls with special existences that needed to learn more. They deserved attention, and I gave them much more, treating them as both ships and girls.

In less than three days, I trained them together and modified their rigging, improving their stats and many other aspects that needed enhancement. I had so many supplies and resources that I was even confused about how to use them.

After using them, the Siren attack came. But the plot twist was that they were completely humbled within seconds of the invasion starting, overwhelmed by my commanding ability. Commanding all Ship Girls at once was stressful, yet I casually commanded them without even bothering to look.

"Retrieve 30 of their mass-produced ships when you return."

"Understood, Commander." They returned with 30 spoils, which I examined and immediately used. By manipulating electrons and crafting directly on the spot with my hands and fingers, I created Mannadium Prime-Heart Armor using the combined energy from the Wisdom Cube, Dark Wisdom Cube, and starlight energy. Boom—Mecha burning armor complete.

The armor floated to me and fused with me in a sophisticated manner, and I could completely feel the energy flow within it.

"Finally, it's all complete. We're done defending. They tried to invade; now it's time to invade back! Dobrynya! URAAA!" The mothership methodically transformed into a literal War Machine of War, equipped with advanced 22nd-century weapons, including weaponized nuclear weapons and an artificial sun capable of desolating Earth. This weapon was created entirely for me, and now it was time to fix the timeline.

The war was chaotic enough. We launched a counter-offensive so ferocious that the Sirens had no chance to resupply or retreat. We caught all Ashes members who strayed and moved to a different timeline where the Black Leviathan appeared. We completely wiped them out using fierce tactics. It was a one-sided massacre with my commanding and support from Dobrynya's mass extinction weapon. I created a weapon specifically designed to wipe out certain organisms.

We went to different branches of the timeline, cleaned up unfinished business, and strengthened the data enough to consider my timeline fixed. We returned to our timeline, which took only 20 minutes here, despite fighting in every timeline for almost 20 days.

Twenty minutes in and out, just like the meme, but those 20 days were something unexpected. We were exhausted from non-stop fighting. For the Ship Girls, it was tough, but for me, it was nothing—I was completely in a rodeo match.

"Commander, good work."

"Yes, I thought so." I released the armor, revealing my charcoal-like body. My body was completely melted like a candle from overusing the energy of the Wisdom Cube and Black Wisdom Cube. Sharing it with the fleet was great.

The armor had also melted and could no longer be used. I just needed a quick nap for a moment because I had lost too much blood and energy. But actually, I was completely fine, just acting, and I got intensive care from the Ship Girls.

And this marks my retirement. Yes, the Union Nation has decided that I am now retired. Dobrynya has also been salvaged and is being used for my retirement dockyard. I decided to use my time to build memories with these Shipgirls, with events, of course. We created many bonded stories and memories, but what about marriage?

Do you really want a civil war? Be my guest, but I don't want it.

So, I took care of them like my own daughters, taking very good care of them despite visibly aging. From my age of 25 during WW2 to 35 years later in 1980, I visibly became older. Wars continued to happen, but they were mostly civil wars and the Cold War. This Cold War was the reason the Black Leviathan beast appeared. That's when I received my last mission from the United Nations—to drive back the Leviathan despite my aging.

Yet, I never lost touch with my ability to handle both World War-era ships and newer-era ships. My edge never diminished. That was my last service for the United Nations. I passed away while commanding without telling the Shipgirls. All commanders in the command center knew that this would be my last mission.

We achieved victory, but when the Shipgirls returned and heard that I had passed away after their victory, it gave them shell shock. The fact that they were not there when I passed away was a bigger regret. I wasn't a monster who wanted to hurt them by passing away in front of them. I preferred to die silently, like how Admiral Yi died in the heat of battle. So, I died in the heat of battle to keep up morale. Now, victory and mourning are held together as I am treated as a war hero and the greatest commander in Azur Lane.

My statue was built in Russia as a memorial, and my naval base was preserved as a museum of the world.

"Satan, Lock in"

[Understood]

I was sent to Fate Apocrypha, near Trifas. Wearing a doctor mask, I immediately hunted down Sagara Hyouma. Fate guided me to him, and I killed him, leaving only Reika, who happened to be there.

"Go and don't come back," I said, taking Hyouma's Magic Circuit and burning his body with Electron Magic.

"Wait... Can I come with you?" Reika asked. I thought for a moment and nodded.

"Alright, but don't get in my way." I controlled the Mana within my body, enhancing its quality and increasing my Mana circuits. I checked the God Card and saw that a summoning would occur tonight, so I hurried to Yggdmillennia for it.

Upon arrival, I made sure my entry was accepted, using Sagara Hyouma's identity and Reika Rikudou as my proxy.

"You're late," someone remarked.

"Sorry, got stuck in traffic."

"Are you sure this guy can be trusted?"

"We need an Assassin to complete the servant lineup. Don't underestimate him." I smirked and drew a different summoning circle from the other Masters. Using my finger as a pen, I sketched a sigil in the air and stood in the center of the circle.

"What are you drawing? What ritual is this?"

"Shut up and mind your own business." I paused and began chanting in my mind. While the others summoned their servants, I continued my incantation, ignoring their introductions and idle chatter until I finished.

"I call upon you from a world beyond comprehension. Come forth and answer my call. As your master, I summon you from realms beyond human reach and creation. Ignite the flames of sanctity and roar the fires of torment. Come in your true form, show the world your divine power, declare your name, and accompany your existence. Roar loudly, defeat all your enemies, for the sake of true victory as I am your commander. Come FORTH!"

An extraordinary mana explosion erupted, shaking the very world. The condensation of mana was so intense that the magi present vomited violently, unable to withstand its density. Even the servants couldn't handle the overwhelming mana burst. From this powerful surge, my magic circle activated, summoning servants from a realm beyond Alaya's reach.

A phenomenon beyond comprehension occurred as reality cracked, and from these cracks emerged 14 servants. Each one was a literal divine being.

They stood around me, looking at me.

"We are yours to command!" they declared. I grinned widely, knowing that these were beings to be truly feared and respected.
