Inazuma, the flagship of the destroyer corps consisting of Akatsuki, Hibiki, Ikazuchi, Shimakaze and Shiratsuyu, have returned from the Kiss Island evacuation operation.

Changed clothes

...You all look pretty beaten up.

...Reporting nanodesu.

The fleet was heavily damaged by battleship class enemies halfway through the operation... nanodesu.

...We'll put the operation on hold for now. All of you can take time to rest and recover in the docks.

Kiss Island strategy meeting

Ahh... Sortieing with just destroyers is.... Dammit.

...Currently, the combat power of a single destroyer fleet is lacking nanodesu.

So when the destroyers are done recovering, the operation can resume right away.

Hey, Inazuma. It appears construction is the answer.

Construction is something that needs to be done frequently and flashily.

Suzuya-san is banned from construction when she is the secretary ship!

Like I said, don't waste resources trying rare destroyer recipes nanodesu! Think of the development materials you're wasting nanodesu!
