Enemies to the front, back, upwards, downwards which basically means that they were surrounded on all sides with no way to escape.

"Analyzer report" Yamato asked once he came online.

"AA defense has been reduced by 40%, multiple hull breaches on the hull but the remaining weapon system are still fully operational."

Yamato took in this information as she formulated a plan of action that might get them out of that sub-space or destroy them.

"Analyzer, bring the main engine up to combat speed 2, focus all weapons on the sirens close to us and don't engage the shields and weapons until I say so. We'll make a beeline for that structure and hopefully use it as cover."

Analyzer paused before answering "Roger."

Loud klaxons blared across the bridge as all bulkheads were sealed and the main engine roaring to life in a bright flame as the Yamato suddenly moved forward, increasing in speed as its weapons acquired targeting solutions.

The sirens, that were already waiting for it to move, opened fire as a multitude of pink positron beams and missiles streaked across the pale blue space aiming at the calculated point the Yamato will be at.

"Analyzer, predict the impact point and launch bubble shields."

Analyzers computer core worked double time as it plotted the course of the enemy weapons and launched four shields that were in a diamond formation so as to use as little ammo.

The missiles and beams harmlessly exploded against the wave motion shields and that allowed the Yamato to swiftly move past as it accelerated to maximum speed, which is 30 space knots, 33 is for warp.

The sirens, seeing that the first salvo didn't work, continued to fire multiple salvos at the approaching space battleship.

"Open fire!"

All guns except AA fired their blue positron rounds in the surrounding ships as the beams teared through the ships bringing down multiple ships in one shot as they continued to fire.

But it wasn't just the main guns that were racking up kills, the missiles from all port, forward, aft, starboard, dorsal and ventral, blasted off and blew up any siren that were close to the ship.

This continued for a few more seconds until Yamato noticed something weird.

'Why are there more ships the closer we get to the station?'

"Focus the forward batteries to the front and blow a hole in those that block our path!"

A loud whirr sounded before the frontal guns locked into position and fired as their beams blew up any ship in their path.

Yamato watched intently until analyzer discovered something.

"High energy signatures detected in front of us."

"Engage shields now and focus them to the front!" Yamato quickly said as a blue cone surrounded the bow before a red glow was seen in the wreckage of the ships in front.

Until three big red beams emerged from them, destroying any ship and debris in their path as they violently collided with the Yamato, but the ship didn't lose its speed as it ploughed through the beam until it dissipated.

With the wreckage and ships clear they could see who fired.

"New battleship type siren spotted, showing on the screen."

The monitor on the ceiling was brought to life as an image of a large ship was seen before it focused on that ship for a better view.

Analyzer continued as he read the measurements while simultaneously firing the weapons as explosions occurred outside.

"Length 400 meters, has two guns on its front with three guns on its back and a large bulge near the bow, possibly their superweapon of some sorts and their three of these ships."

"It's longer than the normal battleship so maybe a super battleship?! But what is it doing here--" Yamato couldn't finish as a bright red was seen on the bow of the three ships which forced Yamato to make decision.

"Yamato hashin!" {launch}

The battleship erupted into golden cubes as they combined to form Yamato's rigging. Yamato used her smaller and more agile state to move downwards just before the beams struck her.

Still moving forward at flank speed, she closed the gap to the super battleships and fired her main guns at the stationary ships as they erupted into flames as three beams luckily hit their energy capacitors which made the energy in the bow to go out of control and basically destroy the ship from the inside.

Yamato zoomed past the ships while her red eyes scanned the station in front for any weapons as the number of ships dramatically decreased from there.

Yamato was a couple of meters from the hull of the station as she begun to think of phase 2 of her plan which goes on the line of her wave motion gun.

But before she could continue with her plan, her sensors went haywire as the space in front of her distorted as a cosmic portal opened before she felt something strike her shields with such force and speed that she was blown into the hull of the station as it vibrated slightly from the impact.

A cloud of dust momentarily clouded Yamato's vision before it dissipated to reveal a large hallway that was bathed in red light.

Yamato felt a sharp pain in her ribs as she fell to one knee.

"Dammit, how did she get my shields" Yamato said as she grit her teeth in pain before looking at the hole, she made as she spotted something moving.

"That was for my battleships" the figure said as Yamato looked at her in anger as she touched the floor. "You dare to interrupt my meeting and destroy my fleet. I, Arbiter the third empress, will destroy you."

(One thing I want to say is the Empress in the chapter before was Empress the fourth, while this one is the third who also gained the title of Arbiter.)

She finished as behind her a blue glow appeared before her rigging, which looked like a shark, as she began charging her guns.

But Yamato didn't give her time to do it as she fired all her main guns in a broadside and watched as they exploded upon impact.

But from the smoke the Arbiter emerged unscathed as she looked at Yamato confused.

"Positron beams? but they never felt this strong. Never mind I'll just kill you now."

Thrusters on her back engaged as she lunged Yamato at blinding speeds, aiming for punch until Arbiter felt her punch stop while Yamato skidded back a few meters as her shield glowed blue.

"That stupid shield blocked my attack."

What she said was true and not true at the same time as Yamato felt the energy in her punch dissipate but the force of said punch bypass her shields and hit her gut which was totally bull ****.

Yamato didn't want to prolong the fight as it could end up badly thus, she needed to deal with her as soon as possible.

"Cosmic sword!"

Yamato's eyes change to a blue hue as a white-blue sword manifested in front of her out of blue flames.

Yamato grabbed the handle tightly as she poured her energy into the sword.

[Notice: special skill Balance breaker is in effect]

"Sword skill" Yamato brought the handle close to her as the tip of the blade pointed forward "Hadoho slash!"

All the energy accumulated was released in an arc that ripped through the hallway as it connected fully to the Arbiter who looked slightly stunned releasing an explosion that rocked the hallway and a shockwave that made her skid backwards a bit.

Yamato breathed out as she became slightly lightheaded but stayed upright as her sub engines ignited lifting her off the ground as she planned to escape.

"Gone so soon."

This comment made Yamato fall back to ground fully alert as she pointed her blade at the smoke that was slowly floating away to reveal an Empress who had only a scratch from that attack.

"Honestly whatever you do it won't work."

Even though Yamato heard her say that she still tried by taking it a step further as her sword was engulfed in blue flames but the sword itself glowed golden and Yamato's eyes turned to a golden hue as she launches her third most powerful attack in terms of sword skills.

{Universal destroyer release}, "Transit hadoho ---"

She couldn't finish as Arbiter suddenly appeared next to her.

"I told you it won't work."

But Yamato still tried as she said "slash."

A blue slash with a gold line in its center flew forward at blinding speeds but Arbiter simply thrust out her hand and got it with her bare hands. The end result was a wound on her palm which had a patch of yellow blood.

"All this for a drop of blood. Let me show you what real power is."

Her rigging armaments charged up before firing blue beams that connected through to Yamato's rigging as her shields turned off due to the transit slash using too much energy.

The blast shook the entire station as Yamato was further launched through another couple dozen hallways.

Yamato could barely open her eyes as the pain she felt was immeasurable.

"Hull breaches from deck 1 through 4, multiple fires on numerous decks, suppressing them.

Damage to the wave motion engine"

That last report made Yamato's eyes fly open as she struggled to escape the hole she was in as she heard the sound of footsteps.

She managed to remove herself as she looked at the approaching figure of Arbiter who had a smug look which pissed her off.

[Notice: special skills limit breaker and last hope have been activated. Damage inflicted has increased by 40% and all positron rounds have switched to transit positron rounds.]

"Just die already!"

Yamato's main guns glowed golden as a spike in energy was detected but it was too late for Arbiter to react as all 15 transit rounds connected at a single point from all 5 turrets.

Switching to outside the station,

A number of siren space ships could be seen near said station as they were alert for the enemy but nothing could have prepared them as a large section of the station was blown off as a large force from the blast was felt and those sirens that were close were destroyed from the pieces of hull and those a bit far away were heavily damaged from the debris that were moving fast and those farthest away were lightly damaged if not unscathed.

Meanwhile back inside, Yamato could only watch as the section of the hull she was at was blown apart leaving an edge that ran horizontally from the hull and the Empress nowhere in sight which made her slightly relived until she detected movement in one of the smoking hull segments.

The smoke was violently dispersed as a wounded Arbiter floated out of. She had cuts on her arm, legs and head which were all bleeding, and her clothing was also ripped to shreds while her rigging was damaged in several areas.

Yamato could only stare, shocked, as her most powerful attack only gave her cuts that bleed yellow blood.

Arbiter looked at Yamato with a smile totally ignoring her wounds.

"Honestly who are you? I have never been inflicted this much damage in any simulation to date. Much less from a Kansen. Omitter would be very surprised to hear this, but it seems that I should get serious about this fight."

Arbiter's body seemed to glow for a while before it disappeared from view which made Yamato alert as the hairs on her tails were standing up fully.

She her sword tightly as she searched the area around her for the hidden siren. Until she saw an orb float just above her with a faint blue glow.

"Ultimate skill"

The orb was starting to grow smaller and smaller, but Yamato remembered a similar skill, black hole nova, that was used by observer and immediately put as much distance as possible between that orb as she continually fired transit rounds hoping to destabilize it as well as bubble shields to shield her.

But the salvos were only being absorbed and fueled the orb even more as it reached its climax.

"Big bang!"

The orb, which was the size of a basketball, violently exploded outwards as nearly all of the station was blown up from the blast and surrounding ships destroyed from the shock wave and debris.

As for Yamato she could faintly feel her body because even though she had her shields on but were at less than half, thus the blast had managed to destroy her shields and inflict a huge amount of damage.

Her eyelids opened slightly to see the blurry figure of Arbiter approach her and this made her feel something different. A hidden rage was boiling in the back of her consciousness as she seemed to have lost consciousness.

"Lost the will to fight already. And here I was getting serious, oh well guess it's time for you to go"

Her main weapon looked similar to those of the super ships but only smaller and less powerful but still dangerous close range. It looked like a pistol when it was in her hands that was mate black with a dark red outline and barrel colour giving it a menacing look.

By the time her weapon was charging up Yamato had awakened but something was different with her.

Her sword, which was still in her hand, was enveloped in a dark flame that was almost pitch black except for spots of red as her once white and blue sword changed to a black and red sword that looked menacing.

Her eye lids opened two reveal two glaring eyes that were black in colour with a red slit in the middle. And the whole eye glowed black which added to her menacing look as she stood up.

"Too late" Arbiter said as she fired her main weapon.

Yamato retaliated by pouring all of her energy into one attack as she brought her blade up above her head before slashing diagonally as a wave that was as black as night surged forward missing Arbiters beam by just a hair before striking Arbiter, slicing off her main weapon and proceeding to blow up as soon as it reached her shield.

Arbiters own red beam also struck Yamato and exploded against her shields, but she was blown away due to the impact force plus using most of her energy in that last slash.

Her maneuver thrusters fired as it stopped her spinning and slowed her down as soon as she regained consciousness.

"Yamato," analyzer started "we should use the wave motion gun it's the only thing we haven't tried."

"No, there has to be another way!"

She said as she grabbed her head due to all the explosions that happened. But it wasn't just her head in pain, her whole body ached in pain from various blasts and strikes.

But her rigging was on fire, literally, as smoke was pouring from all sides and nearly all of her weapons were offline or blown up as her main guns were nothing but stubs as her barrels were blown clean off, her secondary turrets only had 1 turret left, her AA was a shell of its former glory, and all her missiles were nocked offline.

There were three reasons why she didn't want to fire her WMG, 1) she didn't want to reveal her super weapon and somehow, she survives and tells others 2) her hull was compromised thus it would be risky to fire and 3) the most important one was that she didn't want to break Okita's promise to Starsha of Iscandar.

"Yamato, we have no other choice but to fire otherwise we will perish here and not fulfil Okita's promise to defend humanity."

Yamato's eyes widened as she listened to analyzer and thus almost regretfully pulled out her wave motion gun as it was formed from cubes and looked like a rifle.

The rifle was metal grey similar to her ships paint scheme with the top half grey and the bottom half red. It had some vents on its side for cooling and discharging any excess energy.

Its shape was that of Yamato's bow as it extended for a bit. It had a hole on the bow where energy was condensed to form the beam.

Yamato placed both her hands on it, one on the trigger and the other along the bottom half.

Raise wave motion engine pressure. Close emergency valves.

Her heart or wave motion engine beat faster and faster as the pressure increased.

Open wave motion gun outlet. Engine pressure at 40%

Streams of blue orbs begun to condense on the tip of the gun as inside miniature black-holes were formed and destroyed releasing a ton of energy of energy in the process.

All energy to the wave motion gun. Initiate forced induction. Engine pressure at 60%

Her thrusters powered down and all electrical systems were switched to back up power as all energy was sent to the WMG.

Release wave motion gun safety. Engine pressure at 80%

By now Arbiter and any other ship left alive, noticed the huge energy signature that the WMG produced.

Raise target scope. Engine pressure at 100%

The scope zoomed in as it focused on Arbiter who directly looking at Yamato as she charged her superweapon.

Brace for shock and flash. Engine pressure at 120%

Her heart shuddered as it reached its maximum rated capacity and exceeded it. Captain Okita demanded 120% of his crew's capabilities. His ship can give no less than exceed it.

Alarms turned on as the pressure in the barrel exceed 120% which in her current state would nearly guarantee that she would blow up, but she took it.

Engine pressure at 180%

Her eyes started to glow gold as a beam of gold could be seen in the beams of blue at her bow. She grit her teeth as her finger shook over the trigger.

"Remember Yamato, you don't have to shoulder burden yourself. We shoulder it together even with the crew."

Yamato's finger stood still as she breathed in out.

Hadoho. Hasha!

{Wave motion gun, Firing!}

Her hull groaned as a huge beam of blue with a gold core erupted out of Yamato's rifle with a boom as it sailed through the pale blue sub space filled with wrecks at a target.

Arbiter could only laugh as the beam closed in on her, not even a second, later and vaporized her as exotic particles and radiation slammed into her, but the beam didn't stop there, it tore through the station before it impacted the black sphere that was at the center of the station (which I totally forgot to mention) :3

The beam tore a hole in the sphere as the matter around it condensed at that single point creating a whirlpool of black and other stuff.

The sphere begun to blast out black lightning at anything and everything which gave Yamato the cue it was about to explode as she gave out an order.

"Brace for impact! Release gravity anchors"

Her hull gave another loud groan in protest as it was suddenly and violently pushed back from the recoil of the gun which made Yamato feel as if her hull will tear in two but miraculously stayed together.

Yamato grit her teeth as she preserved through the pain until she reached a certain speed.

"Warp!" her figure disappeared into a wormhole as the entire sub space was destroyed as its core went super nova.

I made her increase her engine pressure for a purpose because if you warp you need energy to use and when firing at the normal 120% would rob the engine the power it needs to do a warp thus only 160% was used for the WMG but the extra 20% was used for warp.

Location:??? POV: Yamato

The famous space battleship opened her eyes as she was immediately assaulted by a colour of dull gold which looked out of place.

She craned her neck to look around until she felt a mind-numbing pain stimulate her brain as she was reminded the price of what those two stunts did to her hull as it was barely holding together and severely depressurized, only internal places that were sealed off had air.

She could see black spots in her vision as her back up power was running low on energy but in the corner of her vision, she spotted something shiny.

The glowing only increased as a figure drew closer until Yamato could make out two wing like appendages that looked like metal but glowed white. Yamato could make the outline of their armour and it was curved in certain direction in certain places suggested it was a lady who had 4 wings who was possibly an angel.

Before Yamato blackout she could make out the face of the angel, which was the most beautiful face she had ever seen, in shock as the angel tried to reach out but Yamato lost consciousness as she heard the monotone voice of the AI last.

[Too much damage sustained reverting back to ship form.]

[Notice: hidden quest and objective have been completed.

Processing rewards ....]

"Man I'm so board, I could get some coffee right now" A very bored radar officer said as he leaned back in his seat.

Currently he was aboard the 'Pillar of vengeance' one of the many stations that dotted the system but this was over the azur lane planet home base which was the third planet in the system.

"John, if the boss finds you slacking, you'll be kicked out faster than me" A new person possibly John's friend said as he brought two mugs of coffee.

"That's if he does. *Sips his Espresso* So, what are you doing here other than to chat Ray"

Ray pats his pockets before removing one of the revolutionary foldable tablets.

"I don't know if you've seen the news lately but there was something interesting things going on in the Lucas system, but have you heard of the Argo" he asked showing a picture of the ship.

"OH, yeah I've heard a lot of people talk about it even ship girls. People online have been comparing it to the Iowa but personally I think the Argo beats Iowa." John said as Ray looked to have a baffled look.

"Even you! I mean come on the Iowa could just spam missiles and it would be the end."

John sipped his coffee one more time before retaliating. "Have you seen the shields on that ship. It tanked a beam from the Aphosis and escaped with minimal damage the Iowa would be damaged massively just from trying to tank it."

Ray would have continued but an alarm broke their little argument as John went to work.

"I'm getting a high burst of exotic energy, radiation and a whole bunch of other stuff from sector 4"

As John monitored with his radar Ray used one of the binoculars that he had to look at that sector and what he saw made his jaw fall open

"Ahh, John I've got visual on the anomaly. It looks to be a waterfall that has silver with gold colour."

"What! You've to be kidding, wait I'm picking up movement at the center"

Ray saw something emerge as the silver-gold waterfall could be seen even from the view of normal citizens on the planet as a shining silver-gold star, what he saw looked like a ship, but it was barely noticeable.

That was the case until the radio crackled to life as a faint voice was heard on the other side.

(Also --- means static)

"~this is the ---- requesting help. Power is offline -- hull has been comprised --- send help --- please -----~"

Both men looked at each other and nodded as John pushed a red button which sounded the alarm, this wasn't the one for general quarters but for a special team that was able to sortie at any moment.

At the hangar footsteps could be heard as a group of people could be seen walking in as a female voice was speaking through the intercom

"USS Cleveland, USS Lafey, IJN Ayanami, HMS Javelin. Report to hangar bay 4 for sortie repeat--"

Each of the ship girls quickly got on their specific ships as their thrusters pushed them out of the hangar.

"This feels familiar for some reason" Cleveland said as they flew towards the immobile Argo.

They made idle chatter while Laffely was sleep while flying as her AI took over.

"Guys" Javelin started "is it only just me or does this ship look like the Argo?"

Now that they were close, they could see its outline which looked like the Argo but the amount of hull breaches, torn of metal made it look like a floating pile of wreck.

"Maybe it does but first priority is to look for survivors let's enter and spread out" Cleve said as they entered through different holes that joined a hallway and begun to comb the wreck for any survivors.

"This is *loud yawn* Laffey, Reactor room is locked trying a different area."

"This is Javelin, crew quarters are empty. It's like nobody ever lived here in the first place."

"This is Cleveland, cafeteria conference and a science lab I think have all been blown up going to a different area."

"This is Ayanami lower decks have no signs of life going to the bridge"

Now they had rendezvous at the bridge as one Javelin carefully opened the metal door as she pulled herself through as the rest climbed the elevator ropes and prying open the bridge door.

"Hello, is anyone there" she asked as she looked around the dimly lit room before noticing a figure slouched over the controls of the ship.

"This is Javelin, I've found someone here, seems to be the captain but their heavily wounded please hurry!"

The rest quickly entered as they noticed said person, who was she, in javelin's arms as they quickly put on a helmet over her face, and they quickly ran for their ships.

Yamato's ears and tails were hidden by her camouflage skill, miraculously.

Once outside Cleve took her aboard her ship as she orders the destroyers to tow the ship to station as she rushed Yamato to the nearest hospital to heal her injuries.

Meanwhile Yamato is going through something in her mind, a dream or a distant memory of a battle.

Who had known that the Belarus federation would retaliate to their failed attack in 2205 in which Iscandar survived.

They were species who held fast to their rule of the strong are better than the weak and in the nearly 20 years of peacefulness who knew they were plotting their revenge.

In 2225, they struck again. New Gamilas was destroyed again this time no one made it out alive not even Desler as he was killed in his own ship.

Next was Iscandar as they were a pacifist nation thus, they couldn't fight back and thus Starsha and Yurisha were each killed and Iscandar destroyed.

Earth was in turmoil as it recalled all of its colonies and ramped up ship production as the Yamato underwent a major overhaul near Mercury.

When the Belarus invaded sol they captured the outer planets, but the asteroid belt was a stale mate where both sides couldn't advance. By this time the Yamato was already at work striking from behind front lines, but the enemies didn't like losing and would resort to any tactic necessary to win.

With the help of the Yamato the defense line was pushed all the way to Saturn, but the enemy brought a large missile that was bigger than earth itself. A major battle ensued where the enemy unveiled their new super dreadnoughts and blasted a huge hole in the human fleet where they lit the missile and sent it at a certain target.

Yamato could only watch from Neptune as the missile neared Earth even as the human fleet threw everything at it except WMG as the debris could destroy earth, but nothing was working.

Until the missile skimmed the earth's atmosphere and continued on. Many rejoiced that it missed but they failed to notice the true path of the missile until it was too late.

Yamato could only watch, horrified, as the missile plunged into the sun before the sun glowed for a bit before collapsing in on itself then expanding at a violent pace before it went super nova destroying the entire solar system and humanity as they knew it as the Yamato barely escaped, sustaining major injuries from the pressure wave and destruction but the blast didn't only leave her ship broken.

Yamato could only stare at the bright band of colours that were once her home star, expand outwards. This left a hollow feeling in her heart as she was the only ship left of Humanity and now looking at her own reflection, she couldn't help but be overcome with rage that was boiling from her crew and from herself as they vowed to destroy the Belarus entirely. Unknown to her, her eyes changed to black with red light slits as anger flowed through her system.

They didn't only break humanity, but they broke her as well as she soon brought all her enemies to their knees until it all ended in one decisive clash that ended everything.

"..!!"

Yamato awoke with a startle as the pain of both the memory and physical brought her back to a room that smelled of antiseptic. She looked around and noticed that she was covered in bandages like a mummy and that she was in a blue hospital gown.

"Analyzer" she called out weakly as she heard something move next to her.

"Yamato, you need rest you haven't properly healed." Analyzer trying to push her down gently, but Yamato refused.

"The ship, where is it" she asked forcing herself to stand while ignoring the protest of analyzer.

Immediately she stood, the full pain of her injuries hit her like a space truck as she nearly collapsed but she was stronger than that and pushed on walking step by step to the door with analyzer near her to provide support.

"It's in the docks" he said as he led down a series of hallways until she was led to a view port where she could see her ship in all its broken glory. Her pain seemed to mirror it as her pain increased.

"How bad is it?" Yamato asked looking at her ship as sparks of welds fly off into the vacuum of space.

"Needs an entire retrofit to fix all the damage done. It would cost nearly 1 billion credits to fix her."

Yamato silently clenched her fist in anger as she was basically reduced to nothing because without her ship, she can't defend humanity meaning she can't fulfil Okita's promise.

"Haruka, what are you doing here and why are you covered in bandages!?" a familiar person said as he rushed to check her wounds.

"Carl!? Umm, I had a rough battle with the sirens, and I barely made it out but what are you doing here" Yamato said while giving friendly smile.

"I was given a job here because someone found out my talents and honestly, I haven't been happier in my life."

Analyzer watched these two silently as they made awkward talk which it was mainly Carl being awkward until he received a message that they were waiting to meet Haruka.

 Time skip

The people who were waiting to meet were the admiral of the Azur lane base, a high-ranking intelligence officer and a petty officer who took down notes of the meeting.

"So, miss Haruka, at 0900 hours we detected a high energy burst in sector 4 then we proceeded to get reports of a waterfall that was silver and gold in colour appear in said sector and then your ship appeared all mangled up" the intelligence officer said.

"Also, two days ago we received a report from a fleet that was commanded by a person named Jason and in it he wrote that before they jumped, they were attacked by sirens and you, and your ship were sucked into a siren portal. After that they didn't know what happened to you. Now I'd like you tell us what happened."

Yamato looked at different people there as she carefully chose what she would say.

"When I emerged from the portal it seemed as if I was in an anomaly as there were thousands of sirens there and a weird structure in the middle. The sirens fired and I tried to flee but I was stopped by a siren humanoid *shows picture of Arbiter and everyone in the room paled* after that I tried to flee but that siren and other ships did a number on my ship but I was able to flee."

Yamato finished, brief short and strait. The intelligence officer looked at Yamato one more time before moving on, but Yamato saw an opportunity she could use.

"Admiral if I may, I would like to get my ship retrofitted" she said showing some designs.

"If you want to do a retrofit then you need to pay. Normally it would cost almost a billion for such a build for a battleship but since you had it rough with the sirens, I'll give you a pass and drop it to one million credits but in return you will do a mission from me."

Yamato gladly agreed but she wondered where she would get the credits until she got a notification.

[Notice: processing of rewards complete.]

[You have obtained 10 million credits for killing Arbiter.]

[You have received blueprints for a wave motion drill/bomb and blueprints for wave motion tipped missiles and shells for destroying the siren controlled sub-space.]

That was really handy as Yamato payed the admiral there and then and soon left to get proper attire, which is her captains uniform spare, because the fighter manufacturer was all the way on the planet.

meanwhile

The 4 Kansen who saved Yamato could be seen walking around the station as they had a couple of hours until they returned to base and tell everyone who they just saved and speaking Haruka, Javelin saw someone familiar pass by until she remembered.

"Oh, it's you the captain of the Argo" she said as Haruka stopped to look at her "it's good to see up and walking. Oh, I forgot to introduce myself. The names Javelin and these are my friends who helped save you."

Yamato looked at everyone until she noticed Ayanami who looked away maybe because she's shy.

"Thank you for saving me Javelin and her friends but I need to go right now so hopefully I will see you soon" with that she took her leave to the nearest hanger to steal-- I mean buy a transport to get her planet side.

Ayanami looked at the receding figure of Haruka as she struggled to reason.

'When I look at her why do I see her, why? Why does she remind me of Yamato?'

Ayanami thought while clenching her fist unbeknownst to the rest.

Location change United Nations Space Force.

The representatives of the major superpowers namely iron blood, Sakura empire, eagle union, northern parliament, royal navy, the one for Italy (forgot their Azur lane name) and Dragon empire.

They were almost done for the month's meeting as the final discussion was brought to the table.

"Okay may I have your attention please!" the spokesman said as he started the final round "if any of you have recently searched the internet then you would have noticed a new development that case being a new ship.

There have been reports from various news media that this ship single handily stopped the invasion of the Lucas system. The captain of this ship is called Haruka, and she has been in command of the ship for an unknown time but it has come to our attention that we don't know where this ship came from, but evidence points to a Sakuran origin due to the captain's name but we are not sure yet"

The reps looked at the Sakuran rep in shock as he looked just as confused but they couldn't ask questions until the end of the speech.

"Thus, the UNSF has given the order for this ship to be monitored as it may bring something new."

Change in location to ???

We can now see the angel who we were introduced to earlier flying at top speed as she neared a platform where other similar 'angels' were taking off. She landed hard but kept up her pace as she dashed towards her superior's office not bothering with the looks people are giving her.

A few minutes later and she arrived a bit out of breath as she wasn't in top form, she barged through the door not even daring to knock as it ripped off its hinges and this startled the officer as he quickly hid something and feigned to be surprised by staring at the door.

"Geez Alena that's the tenth door today that you and others broke today, you know one more broken door and I'm slashing your sala--"

"That's not important!" she said as moved towards his desk "today during my patrol of the no-man's gap I saw a ship."

The once angry look on her superior's face turned serious as he clasped his hands together. "Is it the sirens again or it one of our enemies the Void?"

"No none of those, what I saw was a ship girl!"

"The humans!? That's impossible they shouldn't even be able to come near here, their technology is too far back."

"Sir, it was only one ship girl, but the ship girl was critically damaged and later I found out that the Matriarch sub space was destroyed as well as the artefact in it maybe these two are connected."

If her superiors face got even more paler her could've been described as a snow man.

"I need a minute" he said holding his head in his hands thinking about how the hell he'll explain this to his superiors "Alena I want you to sneak into the human dimension and keep tabs on that ship, you can send a probe or a robot I don't care but I need you to find out about this ship and maybe we will find a clue to the disaster that was the dimensional breech"

Alena nodded her head as she thought of a plan.

"I'll report to you once I've made contact."

She did a quick salute and left leaving a superior whose day just got busier.

Siren stronghold

The sound of glass shattering and a laughter echoed through the hallway of a siren stronghold.

"Your majesty is something wrong" one of the servants asked worried.
