Azur Lane medical centre, before the hunt.

Hood is still resting while trying to recover. Josh's third girlfriend, Artoria was watching her in worry as the heart rate monitor continues to beep.

-the battle-

Tirpitz and Bismarck have engaged into a brutal battle against each other. Tirpitz had successfully destroyed a couple of Bismarck's turrets and had managed to knocked her down to the sea.

Tirpitz: (aggressively pointed her lance) You're going to pay for what you've done!

Bismarck: What? (Thinks) I thought that Hood was dead... I personally made sure that her injuries were fatal.

Tirpitz: the only way for the battle to end is for you to order your friends to stand down and return to Iron Blood...

Bismarck: never!

Having little choice, Tirpitz runs her lance through Bismarck which forced her to cough up blood as the weather turns grey and starts to rain. Bismarck falls to the surface of the ocean, lifeless.

Tirpitz: (looking at her sister's body) you've left me no choice, Schwester.

After the battle against Bismarck and her fleet, Josh and the Azur Lane Armada head back to Azur Lane but they didn't know what Iron Blood has another plan in the making of process.

Franziska: did you do it? kill Bismarck, Tirpitz?

Tirpitz: had too.

Franziska: for Hood?

Tirpitz: (nods slowly) ja.

The pair continued to chat while a girl with brunette hair and a walking stick approach the pair.

Tirpitz: Guten Tag Fiore.

Fiore: hey Tirpitz and Fran. How did you go with the hunt?

Franziska: relatively good. Though Tirpitz had to kill Bismarck.

Fiore was confused with what she meant as Tirpitz looked sad.

Meanwhile at the office

Josh had summoned his friend, Roon to spy on Iron Blood for their next move considering that Bismarck is currently the leader of Iron Blood. Roon had agreed to do so.

-medical centre-

Josh joins Artoria before he could enter his wife's ward.

Artoria: where's Tirpitz?

Josh: Tirpitz is currently having some time to herself.

Artoria: Hood's condition hasn't improved since you left to hunt Bismarck.

Josh didn't say anything as he entered the ward and holds his wife's hand. Artoria decided to leave her friend as QM2 arrived.

QM2: any change?

Artoria said nothing but shook her head. Queen Mary could tell that Hood could pass any day and she too leave her friend. With the medical centre now empty while Vestal is currently in her office, a lone heart rate monitor beep echoed the hallway.
