Chapter 1089: Tosa Returns to Sakura City
Chapter 1089: Tosa Returns to Sakura City
Let’s go back to before the battle in Scapa Flow began.
The fleet from Donghuang arrived at the port of Sakura Empire. Although Sakura Empire was on high alert and the Donghuang fleet was also quite cautious, the three people involved were very relaxed.
"You're finally back, meow! Akashi needs to go back and check on the store. What are you two planning on doing, meow?"
Fuyuki subconsciously looked at Tosa next to him, who raised his hand and pointed forward.
"The person who helped us decide where to live is here."
Shentong walked quickly to the three people, bowed his head with a smile, then looked at Fuyue and smiled, and then looked at Tosa.
"Welcome, we have prepared accommodation for you. Please follow me. Of course, if you are not satisfied with anything, please tell me and I will prepare it for you immediately."
Akashi was simply ignored, but she didn't care and instead felt relieved.
Shentong brought Tosa and Shenyue to the courtyard where Yang Sikang lived.
"No one else has lived here since Commander Yang left, but we have people come to clean it regularly. I have had people clean the place in advance for you two to come this time, and I have also replaced all the daily necessities with new ones, so please feel free to use them."
"Thank you so much."
Shen Yue said, and Shen Tong turned his head to look at her and smiled:
"Ms. Shen Yue, although being polite is a good thing, you can't just thank everyone now. After all, your status here is different now."
As he spoke, Shentong pointed around with his fan.
Shen Yue finally understood that although she had returned to Sakura Empire with the others, her current identity came from Yang Sikang.
The fact that Tosa stayed by her side to protect her was the best proof, and the Eastern Emperor even sent a fleet to take them to the port of Sakura Empire. You know, this kind of treatment is not something that ordinary people can have.
However, just as Fuyuki was about to agree, Tosa, who had rarely spoken except for chatting with her, said:
"Don't worry about it, I'm here."
Shen Yue was stunned, and Shen Tong next to her was also stunned.
She could clearly feel the change in Tosa's temperament. From the moment they met, Tosa had a strong fighting spirit, so strong that she could see it from a distance.
It seems that Tosa is not just a guard who sent Fuyue back.
Just as Shentong thought of this, Tosa spoke:
"I want to meet with the First Air Force. Is there any procedure I need to go through?"
Shentong looked at her meaningfully and shook his head:
"As for the others, since Commander Yang is not here, they still have to go through the process. But Miss Tosa, you don't need to. After all, according to history, you are related to Kaga."
"Humph, this kind of place is very convenient. Then tell them for me, I will visit them tomorrow afternoon."
"Okay, I'll pass that on to the two members of the First Air Force."
"By the way, please tell Kaga that I brought her a gift."
When Shentong left, he specially sent people to stand by outside, but Tosa and Futsuki did not use those people.
That night, after packing up her things, Fuyue came to Tosa's room worriedly.
I raised my hand, but before I could knock on the door, Tosa's voice came from the room.
"come in."
"Ms. Tosa, you..."
"Just call me Tosa. I don't care if other people are polite, but now that you are here, if you continue to be polite to me, it will not be good for you if others hear it. I am the commander's ship girl, and you are the commander's adopted sister, so just call me Tosa."
"Yes, Tosa-chan..."
The nervous Fuyue subconsciously wanted to call her "Miss" again, but Tosa turned the knife in his hand, and the reflected light made Fuyue swallow the last two words.
"Tosa, go find the First Air Sentinel. Does your brother want you to do something?"
Tosa was cleaning his sword, and without even looking up, he replied:
"No. The commander's only order to me is to protect you. Everything else is not part of my mission. Going to find the First Air Battleship is my personal action. So don't go with me. I've already told the people outside that Akashi will come to take you back tomorrow. Just have a good rest and wait for me to come back."
Fuyue hesitated for a moment, looked at Tosa's reaction, took a deep breath, and exhaled slowly.
She clenched her fists, took a step forward, raised her head and said solemnly:
"No, I want to go with you to see the First Air Force tomorrow!"
Tosa's hand stopped, she raised her head and said expressionlessly:
"That's the First Air Battle. Didn't you make models of Akagi and Kaga? What can you do in front of the person you admire?"
"But my current identity is not just Suzuki Fuzuki from Sakura Empire. I want to go with you. This is what I should do!"
Tosa looked at her deeply and smiled softly:
"go to sleep."
"Tosa!"
"If you don't sleep now, how are you going to meet the First Air Force with me tomorrow?"
Shen Yue nodded, turned around and ran back to her room.
Tosa wiped the blade clean carefully, held it up with both hands, turned his wrist to grasp the handle, stood up and swung it a few times, then sheathed the blade.
"Oh... now that's more like it."
The next morning, Tosa got up early and exercised in the yard.
Although it was relaxing and pleasant for her to follow the commander, she could not enjoy the battles to her heart's content.
Be it exercises or exchanges, they always have to restrain themselves when fighting their own people, and when fighting the enemy, they mostly cooperate with each other, leaving them with few opportunities to give full play to their abilities. Moreover, the enemies will often be quickly divided up by other people in the fleet, and very few can pose a threat to them.
But this time is different.
She was the only one here, and she was also from Sakura Empire.
Having said that, as a Kaga-class battleship, in history it did not even have its own outfitting. The hull was finally built, but it could only become a target.
Sometimes it was a battleship, sometimes it was said to be converted into an aircraft carrier, sometimes it was used as a target for testing, and finally it was sunk.
"Everyone has his own ideas, and they are being used well."
Tosa sheathed his sword and turned to get a towel, but saw Fuyuki standing next to the shelf holding a bowl.
"I know you have the habit of exercising in the morning, so I made you a bowl of soup."
Tosa took the towel handed to him, wiped the sweat off his head, casually hung the towel around his neck, and nodded:
"Thank you."
"You came here to protect me, and because of this you were unable to fight with my brother. I should be the one thanking you."
"I also have my own purpose, and it's not entirely for you."
Tosa finished his soup, hung the towel beside him, and said:
"Get ready, we'll be there in the afternoon."
