*A/N* - Hi there, kept you waiting, huh? Apologies about that. I was induced with the sick disease known as writer's block and procrastination, followed by an addiction to Magic: The Gathering and Video Games. Not to mention, I've been feeling sick and had to deal with University Graduation. A lot has happened since the last chapter, and there's a lot I've got to get to. However, this chapter will be a break from all the chaos with the Sirens and jump into sheer chaos with the girls of Azur Lane. When we last left off, Sora had just gotten his new outfit tailored with the help of Kirishima and other ship girls.

If it wasn't made clear, I just made it so he's now wearing his Kingdom Hearts 4 outfit. Given that we don't have artwork of his entire outfit and only a few upper-body shots, I'm going for his latest outfit, which is still similar to what was established in the last chapter. His Kingdom Hearts 3 outfit is not going away entirely, but it will be taking a break for some time. I will also be exploring the idea that he's become strong enough to use Formchanges on his own, thanks to the Keyblade. We know that he's able to use new abilities from the trailer, so that will be something I use for the story. With all this being said, I hope you'll enjoy this special chapter and look forward to what's next. Plus, we've got a whole plate of awesome things to look forward to with Azur Lane's new updates. I am very excited for the Nier Automata collaboration!

Thanks and enjoy!

Sora wasn't sure how long she had been out. To him, he lost track of time after the first minute passed, but he noted how Ayanami was holding up her phone, which had a timer that looked like four minutes had passed now.

"Is Akagi still passed out?"

"It wasn't even a real faint. She passed out after a few seconds."

"That's not how it works in the movies."

"Don't you mean that's not how it works in real life?"

"Should someone get some water?"

"So we should splash her with it? Hehe..."

"Shoukaku! Don't take advantage of our senpai!"

"...It'll be fine. Plus, it would be hilarious."

"Should we get a doctor?"

"Uh... Hello? I'm right here?"

"Oh! Sorry, Vestal!"

"No worries!"

With all the commotion taking place, the spiky-haired brunette wasn't sure what could be done to help Akagi wake up. Of course, he could always try casting a Curaga spell on her to wake her up, but based on everyone's input... she wasn't hurt in the slightest.

"Oh?"

"Hm? What's up, Unicorn?" Sora asked the young girl. "Is something wrong?"

Shaking her head, she gestured over to Akagi's sleeping form, "No, it's just U-chan said something interesting."

Having her interest caught, one of the lovely Royal Navy girls hummed to get the young girl's attention.

"Oh? Please tell me what he said. I'm quite curious," Illustrious asked, giving her a gentle smile.
