Azur Lane: The Tragic Admiral’s Azur Life

Chapter 1288 The shock of first contact

After dealing with the Purifiers, Frederick and his crew encountered no more accidents and arrived at the Iron Blood port very smoothly.

The ordinary people on the Tiexue side were completely unaware of their arrival, but Hu Teng had no intention of being polite to those people. When they wanted to stop them and ask about their identities, Hu Teng directly aimed his main gun at them and destroyed half of the dock with one shot.

Prince Eugen, who was hiding behind, was stunned. He rushed out before the two sides started fighting and cleared up the misunderstanding.

After finally bringing this group of people into the reception room, Prince Eugen became curious when looking at the people in front of him.

Let's not talk about the submarines, after all, they were all shipgirls that she was very familiar with. Although they were not the same individuals, they were almost the same. However, she didn't recognize any of the five shipgirls here.

"Hello, I am the heavy cruiser Prinz Eugen. Would you please introduce yourselves so that I can get to know you? After all, your commander did not give me any information about you beforehand."

Several people looked at Frederick, and after Frederick nodded, several people began to introduce themselves.

Mainz's self-introduction was very standard, as clear and concise as if he had neatly narrated his personal profile.

However, when it came to Ron, things suddenly became different.

"I'm the cruiser Roon. Like Mainz here, I'm a ship that only exists in historical design. However, unlike Mainz, which was supposed to be the successor of the Hipper class, I only borrowed the data of your Hipper class for the armor part. Oh, by the way, my personal hobby is releasing animals. Please give me your advice~Prince Eugen~"

Ron's words surprised Prince Eugen, because Mainz's self-introduction did not mention anything about her relationship with the Hipper class.

When Ron mentioned this, Mainz's expression did not change at all, and he said calmly:

"It makes no difference to us whether it's related or not."

However, Prince Eugen did not think so. Not long after they met, Yang Sikang had already started asking for data and information about their Hipper-class ships. As far as she knew, the time it would take for these ships to be built would not be too long, probably just a few months.

And now in front of her is a light cruiser Mainz, which was supposed to be the successor of the Hipper class, and a heavy cruiser Roon, whose armor was inspired by the Hipper class. No matter how you look at it, Yang Sikang wanted their Hipper class data and information just for this, right?

Many thoughts flashed through Prince Eugen's mind instantly, but her upbringing prevented her from changing her expression at all, and she responded very naturally and politely.

Odin’s self-introduction was almost non-existent. The entire content consisted of only one sentence: "Battlecruiser, Odin." And that was it.

Prince Eugen looked at the remaining two people with interest, but his imagination was already running wild in his mind.

Odin, this is the name of a god in mythology. So the next two who look more powerful should be similar, right?

Just as she was imagining this in her heart, Hutten looked at Prince Eugen, his predator-like eyes smiling slightly:

"Ulrich von Hutten, that's my name."

"Eh?"

Prince Eugen subconsciously made a sound of surprise.

The name Ulrich von Hutten has a very special meaning to the Iron Blood. This name represents the poet, writer, and reformer who is famous in history. At the same time, for a ship, being given this name itself is a special symbol.

Prince Eugen almost immediately thought of a possibility and blurted out:

"Battleship H?"

Hutten did not answer.

Ever since he learned that Yang Sikang was able to build a ship that only existed in design in history, Prince Eugen has been consciously collecting Iron Blood's historical design plans, drawings and any related information.

And the man who had started a war that swept the world with iron and blood once said something that happened to remind Prince Eugen at this moment.

[I once planned to build a battleship squadron, the strongest battleship squadron in the world. The two largest ships should be named "Ulrich von Hutten" and "Götz von Berlichingen."]

The two names in this sentence correspond to the battleships H and J that the man had envisioned.

Moreover, Ulrich von Hutten is not just a name of a person or a ship for the Iron Blood. The historical figure represented by this name has also left a significant mark in history and exists in history as a well-known symbol.

So when Prince Eugen heard Hutten's name, he immediately said battleship H without thinking, but Hutten did not answer at all, and had no intention of answering at all.

At the same time, Prince Eugen looked at the last person with some doubt, and then...

"The Iron Navy's battleship Friedrich the Great, a product of Project H."

Prince Eugen felt a huge wave of emotion in his heart, and for a moment he was actually a little overwhelmed.

Of course she knew that Yang Sikang had mentioned the name of Frederick the Great, but to put it simply, she had never taken it to heart.

The reason is very simple. This is an iron-blooded place, not a royal one. Seniority is useful here, but only to a certain extent. Simply relying on seniority or status will not work here.

However, this Frederick the Great in front of us is the product of Plan H?

A genuine proposal ship, one of the many designs in Plan H, was born in the name of Frederick the Great. It is not uncommon for ships to have the same name, and this is common in the history of ships.

But if we think about those in Yang Sikang’s fleet... the Essex-class Yorktown and Hornet, and the Independence-class Langley, there are too many examples like this. Who can guarantee that the Frederick in front of us is really the Frederick of Plan H?

Things were really far beyond his expectations. After realizing this, Prince Eugen not only did not feel uneasy, but became even happier.

"Frederick the Great, that's a very important title. Haha~ Interesting. So, between the two of you who are both products of Project H, who has the final say?"

"I am Frederick's subordinate, so I'd better not try to test him."

Huteng spoke coldly, and Prince Eugen nodded slightly and smiled:

"Okay, I understand. Then..."

Prince Eugen turned on the communicator:

"Nimmy (Z23), bring some sensible children over here, and by the way, prepare some rooms."

A few minutes later, there was a knock on the door, and then it opened without waiting for Prince Eugen to speak. A serious destroyer girl stood at the door:

"The room has already been prepared, and you didn't tell me how many people you were going to bring, so I just..."

Before Nimi finished her words, Ron, who had seen the portrait at his own development dock, had already arrived in front of her.

"Hello, you are Z23, right? Hmm~ You are as cute as the portrait~ Hehe~ My name is Ron, let's be friends?"
