Naturally, the sharp reactions from the main fleet members had the opposite effect of “mending” Marshmallow’s crumbling mental state in a completely different way.

    —————————————-

    -[WTF, I’m the only one who went separately and got screwed, and this is how you react?](Marshmallow)

    -[You went willingly because you liked the idea](Goliath)

    -[What the fuck?](Marshmallow)

    -[Whoa, whoa, whoa](Dolphin)

    —————————————-

    In addition to having lost three of the medium cruisers that were destroyed along with the repair ship in Icarus’s surprise attack.

    Since Goliath had been at the center of the battle line, he suffered the most damage from Icarus’s fleet battle.

    With three battlecruisers nearly destroyed and only about ten medium cruisers remaining, when Goliath impulsively blurted out those words, Marshmallow saw it and lost his patience.

    Marshmallow, who had been mocked by Goliath for having a “crappy carrier,” transformed into a battle-hungry warrior in the gallery and began fighting in the chat.

    —————————————-

    -[Hey asshole, you’re the one who said carriers were trash and told me to just ram them]

    -[Is that seriously how you’re going to react?](Marshmallow)

    -[What the fuck, you think you’re the only one who lost half their ships?]

    -[You talk like shit. Hey, am I the only one with a split fleet? Just me?](Goliath)

    -[You bastard, is losing two 40-point ships in one go the same as what happened to you?](Marshmallow)

    -[I lost a hundred 10-point ships, for fuck’s sake](Goliath)

    —————————————-

    In this situation, Bayraktar and Dolphin, who were naturally tired of Marshmallow’s whining, remained silent.

    At the same time, they secretly hoped Goliath would win(?) the argument… but at that very moment.

    —————————————-

    -[All of you shut up]

    -[I lost two-thirds of my fleet trying to help you guys, so stop whining](RamuRamu)

    -[Oh](Goliath)

    -[Oh](Marshmallow)

    -[Both of you did stupid shit, so shut up](RamuRamu)

    —————————————-

    RamuRamu, who had been leading the clan knowingly or unknowingly while covering for users who just brought main ships without much thought.

    When RamuRamu’s extreme anger erupted after having his fleet literally split in half due to the stupidity on both sides, the fighting in the chat stopped immediately.

    Instead…

    —————————————-

    -[Goliath, you’ve been whining from the start and stirring things up saying carriers are weak](RamuRamu)

    -[But everyone agreed back then](Goliath)

    -[Shut up. I clearly objected with specific reasons, but you kept being an asshole]

    -[And Marshmallow, you’re a bastard too](RamuRamu)

    -[What the fuck, why me?](Marshmallow)

    -[While the main force was getting their asses kicked, you just sat there trying to take out 4 mercenary groups and ‘carrier aircraft’](RamuRamu)

    -[But I got attacked and called for backup](Marshmallow)

    -[You motherfucker, you called for backup against mercenary groups whose maximum output is light cruisers and one Kraken attack group, when your carrier aircraft level was higher?]

    -[You were just trying to take out the easy targets and capture the enemy base without damage while the main force was drawing aggro]

    -[When I brought my fleet over, you bastard, most of your fleet’s ship losses happened very recently](RamuRamu)

    -[Oh](Marshmallow)

    —————————————-

    Due to RamuRamu’s extreme anger and frenzied chat barrage.

    The Unity Clan’s chat suddenly turned into something resembling a people’s court.

    ==========

    After RamuRamu’s extreme anger mode ended.

    —————————————-

    -[Alright everyone, let’s grit our teeth and get through this, okay?](RamuRamu)

    -[Yeah](Goliath)

    -[Yeah](Marshmallow)

    -[Finally some peace and quiet](Bayraktar)

    —————————————-

    The Unity Clan, having somehow sorted out the situation, realized that despite their enormous losses.

    From an objective standpoint, they still maintained an absolute advantage.

    —————————————-

    -[But when you think about it, aren’t we still in an advantageous position?](Dolphin)

    -[?](Goliath)

    -[Think about it, the battlecruisers’ mobility will be fixed in half a day at most](Dolphin)

    -[Yeah, about 14 hours to be exact](Goliath)

    -[So in the meantime, no matter how strong their carrier aircraft are, can’t we just hold out by forming a tight fleet anti-air formation with our remaining ships?]

    -[Even though RamuRamu’s fleet got split up badly, if we combine Bayraktar’s and Marshmallow’s fleets, we should be able to grind down their carrier aircraft](Dolphin)

    -[That’s not wrong. Especially since I barely lost any small ships, I can redirect mine to hold out against their carrier aircraft attacks at least a couple of times](Bayraktar)

    —————————————-

    All kinds of discussions followed after that.

    To summarize, they concluded that “our anti-air capability is still sufficient, so we can hold out here.”

    And once the mobility of the battlecruisers and other main ships was restored, while the smaller ships physically blocked Icarus’s air raids.

    They would send the main ships to the base and crush it with firepower. When this simple plan emerged.

    The Unity Clan, including RamuRamu whose mental state had been shaken, unanimously agreed to the plan for the first time.

    They displayed a hedgehog-like space defense posture and began preparations to deliver seven consecutive battlecruiser strikes against Icarus.

    ==========

    But a few hours after making that plan.

    When Icarus, who had returned after a good sleep, launched another drizzling air raid using Kraken+light carriers.

    “Aaaaargh! Air raid alert! Air raid alert!”

    “Commander! Get a hold of yourself!”

    No matter how well they had deployed their space defense, with the carrier aircraft raids that had increased significantly compared to before.

    —————————————-

    -[Torpedoes from the rear!](RamuRamu)

    -[Wow, teleport is so broken](Goliath)

    —————————————-

    Once again, as the Kraken’s once-a-day teleport attack began.

    The bizarre phenomenon of 5 users being toyed with by a single user was happening in real time, making everyone’s nerves raw.

    The one fortunate thing was that their only light carrier had leveled up explosively through the fierce battles.

    Despite being outnumbered, the already well-developed light carrier was engaging in an evenly matched air battle against the Kraken’s squadrons that were farming them.

    This meant they could at least avoid the first wave of the vicious Kraken carrier aircraft’s offensive.

    But no matter how high the light carrier’s level was, the opponent was an overpowered ship rarely seen even in the final tier.

    The remaining ships just had to endure using the anti-air formation through sheer determination.

    Of course, the large-scale anti-air formation of five users’ fleets wasn’t something to be taken lightly, which was why Icarus had initially tried to make them lower their guard by throwing light carrier aircraft at them.

    It provided an insane anti-air buff to the entire fleet, grinding down Icarus’s aircraft equally whether they were from the Kraken or light carriers.

    But with the relentless air raids and the teleporting torpedo drops that had just shocked the clan members.

    For every few hundred carrier aircraft they shot down, one destroyer would explode, slowly.

    Very slowly eating away at the fleet’s strength.

    But the tension didn’t last long.

    —————————————-

    -[That bastard is retreating!](Goliath)

    -[How many aircraft did they send?](RamuRamu)

    -[About 3500? 4000?](Marshmallow)

    -[They’re throwing 400-500 aircraft just to sink one destroyer, damn](Bayraktar)

    -[But we ground down all their aircraft, cheers!](Dolphin)

    —————————————-

    When the vicious raids that had continued for hours finally ended with Icarus retreating after most of his aircraft were destroyed.

    The Unity Clan members finally heaved sighs of relief at having survived.

    Although they had to divert the support superhumans who were increasing repair speed to defense.

    The repairs that would have taken only a few hours when the air raid started had completely stopped until the moment the raid ended.
