The Battle For The Cube

At the Azur Lane base, two separated battles are being waged. The first, to destroy Purifier for destroying the base, and the other to destroy Emperor, as well as take back the mental cube.

At the purifier, the ship girls are having problems destroying purifier and her drones, since they're particularly good at dodging.

With Emperor, The three maids are having difficulties landing a hit on him. With the combination of his tentacles, the pawns, and the tentacles taking hits for him, none of their hits impact him.

Emperor: "This is incredibly fun. I should've simply taken Purifiers form of assault. This is nothing."

Edinburgh: "I'm gonna die! IM Gonna die!!"

Belfast: "We need to find a way to get through the protection of his tentacles." Wait, what if I go close combat while Sheffield and Edinburgh attack him from range.

Belfast then turns towards the other two words and signs what she wants over to them.

Sheffield: "Edinburgh. Stop running around, Belfast is trying to talk to us."

Sheffield grabs Edinburgh by the scruff and they listen to what Belfast has to say. After, they nod and start firing at Emperor.

Emperor: "Oh, finally going to fight me? Well, show me what you've got!"

Emperor prepares his tentacles and fires four at each maid. He however, takes his eyes off of Belfast, who sneaks up behind and prepares to first fight.

Belfast grapples onto his rigging and throws some punches, while merely seems to annoy him. He flies into the air, and attempts to shake him.

She takes some shots and manages to damage him, but she falls off.

Emperor: "This has been fun, but it's getting tiresome now. It's time to die."

Enterprise: "SIREN!!"

Enterprise readies her bow to fire

Emperor: "Oh yay! It's Enterprise

Emperor fires his lasers at her, grazing her rigging, but her arrow hits him in the chest, piercing him and destroying his rigging.

Belfast: "Now everyone, Open fire."

All the maids fire at the downed body of Emperor and a smoke screen descends onto him.

Edinburgh: "We did it. Actually this time."

As she speaks, his body disappears into the water and the cube with it.

Belfast: "Damn it. Not the cube. Nevermind, we'll just have a sub collect it later."

But, quakes begin to take shape in the water, shocking the girls and worrying them.

Sheffield: "I've never felt the ocean quake like that. What's happening now?"

As she speaks, rigging begins to exit the water, but it's different then the one that just sunk. Then, a male body leaves the water.

???: "HOW DARE YOU!? YOU DARE DESTROY THE BODY BESTOWED UPON ME!?"

The Emperor emerges from the water, now with a much larger rigging. His rigging is now eight mechanical arms attached to his back with two large laser cannons that extend above his shoulders. Drones, much like purifiers, also appear.

The mechanical arms extend past his arms outward towards the girls, and could easily penetrate skin. He however summons a portal underneath him, and out floats a leviathan that once swallowed the world.

(The new rigging is a mix between the bottom right spider rigging and the top left one.)

Emperor and his rigging both seem to roar, and even the ship girls, who are used to seeing rigging, are terrified of this beast.

Arbiter: The Emperor: "Now. Who wants to die first?"

The New Arbiter now orders all of his cannons to fire, decimating the surounding area. The ship girls try desperately to survive.

Amid the chaos, The Emperor moves towards the nearest ship girl and attempts to pierce her with his mechanical arms.

He manages to penetrate Edinburgh's right arm and manages to make her drop her weapon. He lifts into the air and grabs her by the throat.

Edinburgh kicks and claws at the Arbiter as she loses air.

Arbiter: The Emperor: "I love that look of fear in your eyes. But, I'll also be happy when you have a blank stare."

Emperor begins to expert pressure onto her neck, further cutting off her supply of air. However, he's stopped by a barrage of bombs.

In response to the attacks, he drops Edinburgh, and protects himself from oncoming attacks. Sheffield comes in and grabs Edinburgh.

Sheffield: "Belfast, she's heavily damaged. We need to head back and get her repaired."

Belfast: "Alright, let's fall back."

Arbiter: The Emperor: "I'm afraid I shall end this here. Time to die."

Emperor prepares to take another shot, to destroy them all, but then Purifier puts in a call.

Purifier: "Emperor, we've overstayed our welcome. Royal Navy's on the way and I'm taking heavy damage."

Arbiter: The Emperor: Fine. Retreat back to the orochi. The plan has moved into the final phase."

He looks back at Enterprise, huffing and puffing at him.

Arbiter: The Emperor: While I would love to end you, Code G... I'm afraid my mission calls. See you ladies on the final stage."

Emperor fires his rigging into the air, completing decimatibg everyone and everything around him. He then disappears into a portal.

Enterprise: "The final stage!!"

And that's it. I decided to give him a new rigging, just to idk, change the story slightly. I didn't just wanna copy purifiers part, after all

See you later

Peace
