"Thanks to you all, [Shattered Star] is... able to live so well!"
Zheng Hao carefully chose his words, not telling Mo Liangji anything more about the 'three years' or the 'serum,' but expressing the utmost respect for these two relatives.
Without their sacrifice back then, [Shattered Star] might really be gone!
"Hahaha—"
"I don't know how you traveled here!"
"But you're really amazing! If you had been there, we probably wouldn't have had to do all this, right? If it were you... I'd be happy to call you brother-in-law..."
"【Shattered Star】must be happiest with you, right?"
"Please! Take good care of my sister from now on!"
Mo Liangji smiled at Zheng Hao, his gaze fixed on his younger sister, Suixing's, gentle smile. He and Mo Yurou watched Suixing, their hearts filled with contentment as she shattered into countless fragments, disappearing into the sea...
For a long, long time...
A sea breeze blew by, and [Shattered Star] smiled, taking Zheng Hao's arm: "Let's go! My [Navigator], let's go see our real brother-in-law..."
"in addition..."
"Let's go and win...our own [World Championship]!!!"
"Buzz—"
The ship, shimmering with stars, finally crossed the final threshold...
......
At the same time, [Black Hole Vortex Contest - Live].
"Sizzle sizzle sizzle—"
"Sizzle sizzle sizzle—"
As both screens went dark, a group of spectators looked excitedly toward the exit of the Black Hole Vortex Race, their faces flushed.
"Who is it?! Who will get first place?"
"Is it Zheng Hao? Or Ye Han from the previous year?!"
"It's Ye Han... after all, he's finished on his end and is already heading towards the exit... Zheng Hao's screen is still black, he's probably stuck somewhere?!"
"......"
The heated discussion continued, and many people stared at the large screen on Ye Han's side with relieved expressions.
As expected...
Did the experienced former world champion ultimately secure first place?
"Boom—"
However!
Just as everyone was discussing, a 'starship' shimmering with light appeared in the distant whirlpool, bursting through the waves and rushing straight toward the finish line!
"Buzz buzz buzz—"
Shattered stars, the fragmented shapes of light spots, and irregular collision accelerations on the sea surface...
Everyone's pupils dilated as they stared at the ship, their voices trembling!
"It's...it's the [Shattered Star]!!!"
"It's Zheng Hao!!!"
"He... I don't know what happened to him... but he actually got out of the 'vortex' before Ye Han! Is he... is he going to win?!"
"First! Will this year's first place... be the [Shipcraft Master]'s first place?!"
"......"
Millions of eyes were fixed on it as the [Shattered Star] sailed through the waves, and a whirlpool behind it burst open with spray, revealing the [Stellar Star] also bursting through the waves and surging forward from the whirlpool!
"Zheng Hao!"
"You really did manage to get out!"
Ye Han's voice rang out from the cabin. He stared intently at the stern of the [Shattered Star], his gaze passing over her and looking towards the finish line further ahead.
He can now activate the [Stellar Domain], and he can also compete with Zheng Hao.
But after thinking about it...
The final scene he witnessed in the [Vortex] left him with a strange look in his eyes; this time, he didn't choose to overtake the ship. He had lost to Zheng Hao from the very beginning, and even though he could now use the [Stellar Domain] to hold Zheng Hao back, the latter still had [Miracle and You]...
Comparison?
It's unnecessary!
after all...
That person is coming soon!
There's absolutely no way I could beat that guy, but could Zheng Hao?
"Boom—"
Watching the [Shattered Star] cross the finish line, Ye Han remained silent, and followed suit, finishing in second place!
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
The moment it crossed the finish line, bursts of fireworks erupted from the Black Hole Vortex Race site, scattering colorful sparks that landed on the Starbreaker after it crossed the finish line.
The ship, shimmering with stars, was bathed in fireworks, in the gaze of the crowd, and in the flashing lights of countless cameras!
"Buzz buzz buzz—"
At the same time, the speedboat high in the sky also fell!
Mo Qingyuan composed himself, and his fair and solemn voice rang out: "Ladies and gentlemen! Let us...congratulate this year's global champion—[Shipcraft Master Zheng Hao], and his [Ship Girl Shattered Star]!!!"
"Zheng Hao! Zheng Hao! Zheng Hao!!!"
"Champion! New champion!!!"
"【Shipcraft Master】! 【Shipcraft Master】!!!"
"......"
As Mo Qingyuan announced the news, a wave of cheers erupted from the crowd!
This moment!
All eyes are on the Starbreaker!
"Thump—"
The door to the captain's cabin opened, and Zheng Hao, with [Shattered Star] holding his right arm, walked out of the captain's cabin, looking seriously at the crowd outside!
"Hmm—"
"Hmm..."
Suddenly, a series of vibrations came from his arm. Zheng Hao turned his head in suspicion and found that [Shattered Star] had switched to Mo Yurou's personality at some point.
Just like during the initial competition, she huddled in her arms, gazing demurely at the constantly flashing camera.
