My comrades are calling out to me.I can't do that....and Zuikaku...I'm all beaten up as well... I can't do that.I'll buy them as much time as I can.That enemy plane isn't even seeing me as a combatant anymore.Chitose-nee...Because I'm here to act as a decoy.
During the Battle of Leyte Gulf, all four Japanese carriers served as decoys due to the shortage of pilots....everyone has sunk.If I just stay like this then I might live through it....It took the DuBose task group 30 minutes to sink the immobile ChiyodaAs result, American force who are taken by destroying Tama and Akizuki let Ise and Hyuuga get awayThere were no survivors among Chiyoda's crew.
