If you recall, there was a tournament hosted by the Kijima Clan for celebrating the new Blood Dragon Shogun roughly a fortnight ago. Mr. Malprave and I flew to Nagano to join and had our matches against Crayterians and Blood Dragons. While I was rising up the ladders, Mr. Malprave, unfortunately, lost in the quarter-finals. Although I dutifully avenged his loss by beating the new appointed Shogun in the finale thus winning the hundred-and-fifty-million credits prize. Nevertheless - the real reason we came to the tournament was to discuss some dealings with the Blood Dragons which Mr. Malprave has chewed over with them, but I was clueless because I left shortly after the tournament.
A week subsequent the tournament, a certain spokesperson of the Watanabe Clan contacted the Lane Hackers, specifically for Adrian Malprave. However, he was busy with other affairs and since I was the accompanying wingman of Adrian to the tournament I decided to take his matters into my own hands. I responded to the transmission and found out they need help to restore the Yamato - their flagship, and arranged a meeting with the emissary a week later.
The Professorship has granted me authorization to captain the Equivocator - our diplomatic Liner. I've met with the emissary outside of Freeport 10 and mingled a bit when another Blood Dragon arrived and warned us about a Naval Forces patrol ongoing. I thought there was rat among us considering the sudden coincidence that the Naval Forces would conduct a patrol parallel to our meeting, but momentarily after the patrol just went by and we proceeded swiftly to Mito Shipyards - a secret installation that is the source of all Blood Dragon warships. There we discussed about the Yamato and its issues and came to a conclusion.
The power systems need a comprehensive architectural overhaul to properly launch the ship into space without any hazardous dangers risking human life onboard. Sounds simple enough, but as I said the Yamato needs a thorough reconstruction of its power systems, meaning to build it entirely from scratch. Now I'm no expert scientist but I can assume it will take tens of thousands of Nanocapacitors and Nanotubes to build the hundreds-of-meters-long system. How and where we're going to get that amount of resources I don't know, but I have a hunch that we won't be able to purchase them ourselves - we'll need to contract some employees. Although that is not the only problem, we also need the blueprints of a Tokugawa-class Kusari Battleship to accurately plan and build the power systems.
There's a long road of work ahead, and it won't be easy. I just hope I don't get into unnecessary troubles in the process.
