Captain Jaku Subalo: "Admiral Yorinobu! From now on I will be your second-in-command in naval battles. My name is Jaku Subalo."
Yorinobu: "I like your pirate name!"
Jaku: "(In style) You forget one very important thing mate, I am captain Jaku Subalo."
Yorinobu: "... Nice. So Jaku, what can you teach me about piracy, I mean naval battles?"
Jaku: "First, we need to know that the enemy will always come to us under any circumstance."
Yorinobu: "That's silly."
Jaku: "A little. But they tend to find the gaps in our formation and sails behind us, probably in an attempt to surround us."
Yorinobu: "I see."
Jaku: "So that gives us lots of potential ideas we can experiment one by one."
Yorinobu: "Good. So what's our ultimate goal in naval battles?"
Jaku: "Capture or sink every single ship, letting none escape."
Yorinobu: "Great! OK here is an idea. If I line up my Medium Bune in a flat line, but leave spaces in between, wouldn't Imagawa's trade ship inevitably travel through the gaps between our ships... then we can start boarding them?"
Jaku: "Let's try it out!"
Yorinobu: "They get close! Board now! Go go go! Darn, Why are you not going?"
Jaku: "Admiral, I am afraid your method failed. The Imagawa fleet passed through your gap and is now at our back."
Yorinobu: "So what should we do?"
Jaku: "Just break up from the formation and capture it!"
