Strategy

The Secretary Ship is ready to sacrifice everything & her aide can only be there for her....

The Sixth Destroyer Division is seen in the docks, washing up. Once again, Anime/Characters#Akagi is there & occupying herself with something to pass the time. Much to Akagi's delight, they are an expedition fleet that have gained excellent bauxite rewards.

Though once done, Akatsuki is displeased about her goal of becoming a lady. They notice a flyer to the yearly Naval Base Curry Tournament & Takao & Atago explain it as they pass by. Naturally, Akatsuki focuses upon the comment of being the number one cook as a shortcut in being a lady. As such, at Mamiya's Cafe she persuades the rest of DesDiv6 to join as well. When they cheer themselves on, Kongou suddenly joins in. Both Ashigara & her won't let the chance slide by either. Though for....differing reasons.

In a kitchen, they begin their practice. However, they are impatient during the stewing & at the construction area, speed it up with....undesirable results. As they reaffirm their commitment, Yuubari helps them with a new pot & Mamiya assists them with ingredients. Their expedition for it fails, though. As they contemplate resigning, Nagato steps in to encourage them.

The competition beings with the teams of Kongou & Hiei, Shoukaku & Zuikaku, Akagi & Kaga, Shimakaze, Ashigara & Haguro, & DesDiv6. The Secretary Ship is the judge. Surprisingly, or unsurprisingly, teams begin to drop out due to self-inflicted sabotage. However, one of the remaining teams lays on a heavy revelation. It takes Nagato to step in once more to reinvigorate DesDiv6 & the audience to continue challenging THE BOSS.

Once the time is up, the Secretary Ship tastes Ashigara & Haguro & DesDiv6 dishes. After a hard decision, DesDiv6 is declared the winner. Everyone has a serving of the winning curry & DesDiv6 has the rest of champions.
