Territorial water of Quila-Toyne Federation

Under the cloudy sky, the waves of sea slammed towards the hull of JS Hōshō, JS Mirai, JS Yukikaze, JS Takao, and JS Ayanami from Special Escort Flotilla, and supported by a supply ship JS Tokiwa, they're sailing toward Rodenius Continent

Previously, there was contact from a fleet from the Rodenius continent. However, due to the language barrier preventing the ships from the Rodenius continent to understand either Japanese or English, they returned to where they come from

Fortunately, Sakashima Bakufu is willing to help Japan to establish a friendly relationship with the Quila-Toyne Federation on the Rodenius continent, Japan employs some people from Fenn to become a translator until their diplomats were able to fully understand the common and Rodenius language

Kazuha stood on the deck of JS Hōshō, looking at the vast sea and feeling the breeze wind, he's already seen glimpses of Japan and he was thinking about his country

"Can my Fenn become a powerful country like Japan" he mumbled to himself

He looked at the sky and sighed, suddenly he heard someone calling his name, he turned his body to look at someone who was calling him

"Mr. Kazuha, you should attend the briefing, there's something important that we need your presence," said the sailor

Kazuha nodded and followed the sailor, meanwhile on front of most of the fleet, JS Yukikaze detected a mass of ships 50 nautical miles in front of them, Ichiro crossed his arms and commented

"looks like they're welcoming us"

"Should we be aware of this"

Ichiro replied "yeah, but we're here to establish diplomacy ties, not starting a war, so keep it steady"

The special escort flotilla sailing toward the unknown fleet from the southwest, meanwhile on the Quila-Toyne Federation's fleets, captain Ridomi stood on the bow of his trireme thinking about the previous encounter with the unknown mast and oarless ships when he was tasked to pursue the unknown objects that flying eight days ago, somehow he still remember that the unknown ship was able to speak, although he didn't know what it said

Suddenly a sailor positioned on the crow's nest reported something, "Captain, the grey ships coming from the horizon, it seems that they're bigger than before"

Hearing this, Ridomi was surprised, "Order everyone to prepare, we'll face them"

"But sir, they have a cannon"

"I don't care, we need to protect our country"

Quila-Toyne sailors began to scramble to their post, the ships began to form a line of defense to repel an invader. Suddenly they saw a flying object from the unknown fleet, however, it was different compared to the object that flying above Maihark before, suddenly the object was speaking a Rodenian language

<<THIS IS THE JAPANESE MARITIME SELF DEFENSE FORCE, STAY WHERE YOU ARE AND SEND YOUR DELEGATIONS VIA BOAT>>

All of the sailors were surprised upon hearing it, an object that was able to speak Rodenian language, murmurs began to arouse between them

"That object can speak Rodenian language!"

"Do you think it is similar to the legendary dragon?"

"That doesn't look like a dragon though"

Meanwhile, Ridomi frozen in place, he was graduated from Quila-Toyne naval academy last month and this is the first time he experience this, one of his subordinates approaches him
