The Chapter get Retranslated
On the Vesalius,
Rau Le Creuset, wearing a mask, floated in the air, his expression unknown as he surveyed the battle. However, the smile visible on the lower half of his face showed he was very pleased with his side gaining the upper hand in the current situation.
At this moment, a radar operator below turned his head and said,
"Heat signature detected on our port side, it's the Archangel."
Rau Le Creuset's smile widened even more upon hearing this.
"Oh, I see. So this fleet is here to rendezvous with the Archangel.
Heh heh, lucky indeed.
Vesalius, change target. Aim main cannons at the Archangel. Leave that fleet to the Mobile Suit team, we will contain the Archangel."
The captain, receiving the order, waved his hand.
"Vesalius, turn around.
Port 30, bow up 10. Main cannons ready, target: Archangel."
On the Archangel,
The helmsman, Arnold, saw the information displayed next to him, turned around, and shouted,
"Their Nazca-class main cannons are aiming at us!"
"Evasive action to port! Prepare to fire linear rail cannons, target: enemy Mobile Suits!"
Murrue Ramius calmly gave the order, then spoke to Miriallia Haw, the CIC's Mobile Suit communicator.
"How are Barbatos and Strike Gundam, and Lieutenant Mu La Flaga's Moebius Zero? Can they launch?"
"Moebius Zero and Strike Gundam are ready for launch. Catapult deck confirmed open, no abnormalities."
After a brief report, Miriallia spoke to Kira Yamato, who was sitting in the Strike Gundam.
"Strike Gundam, please launch."
Kira Yamato exhaled heavily.
"Kira Yamato, Strike Gundam launching!"
Then, Miriallia spoke to Mu La Flaga on catapult deck number two.
"Moebius Zero, please launch."
Mu La Flaga, sitting in the Mobile Armor Moebius Zero, pulled down his helmet visor.
"Alright, Mu La Flaga, Moebius Zero launching!"
Just as the Moebius Zero left the Archangel, the Vesalius's artillery fire swept past the Archangel's upper left.
The Archangel, having dodged the enemy's shelling, fired its linear cannons from both sides of the hull, destroying a GINN that had gotten too close to the vanguard's main ship.
Finally, it was Mikazuki Augus's turn with Barbatos. Mikazuki didn't wear a helmet; he simply wore a tight black and silver compression suit, with the Alaya-Vijnana System connected to his back.
It wasn't that he didn't want to wear a spacesuit; it was just that there wasn't one suitable for him. After all, he was a bit short, and fighting in an ill-fitting spacesuit would be very inconvenient.
Moreover, the spacesuits here were not specially made for the Alaya-Vijnana System. Connecting to the Alaya-Vijnana System while wearing an ordinary spacesuit would be quite difficult. It was better to just wear the compression suit kept in Barbatos's cockpit.
Miriallia's voice came through the comms.
"Barbatos... Mikazuki-kun, can you launch?"
Mikazuki stretched his hand and calmly replied,
"Mm, I can."
"Barbatos, please launch... Please be careful."
Mikazuki didn't catch the unusual tone in Miriallia's voice. He hummed in acknowledgment and said,
"Mikazuki Augus,
Barbatos, launching!"
Barbatos, carrying two alloy katanas and a smoothbore cannon as tall as himself on its back, left the Archangel's catapult deck and charged towards the battlefield ahead.
On the Vesalius,
The communicator turned to Rau Le Creuset and the captain, saying,
"Report, the enemy has deployed two Mobile Suits and one Mobile Armor."
As the report was made, images of the three units appeared on the screen. Rau Le Creuset's smile vanished when he saw the unforgettable unit in the middle.
"The monster has arrived...
Frederick, notify the maintenance team, prepare my Mobile Suit. I'm launching too."
"Understood!"
Frederick responded decisively, then continued to direct the battleship's combat.
Rau Le Creuset then quickly left the bridge to change into his pilot suit.
The vanguard's Mobile Armors, in the end, were no match for the Coordinators piloting Mobile Suits. In less than half an hour, eighty percent of their Moebius units were destroyed.
Athrun Zala, piloting the Aegis Gundam, destroyed the most Moebius units. Just as Athrun was fighting bravely, an alarm sounded. Following the alert, the screen zoomed in, revealing the two Mobile Suits he least wanted to see.
Especially the one in the middle, which, although somewhat resembling a Gundam, looked different from a typical Gundam—an unknown unit.
Athrun's face turned grim, and he uttered a single word,
"Wolf..."
Wolf. This was the nickname Rau Le Creuset had given to Barbatos.
After all, they had no information whatsoever about Barbatos. They couldn't keep calling it "unknown Mobile Suit"; it was too cumbersome.
So, Rau Le Creuset chose a code name that was very fitting for Barbatos, calling it a ferocious Mobile Suit like a wild wolf.
After taking a deep look at Barbatos, he turned his attention to the agile Strike Gundam behind it.
"That unit... Ugh."
Athrun gritted his teeth and maneuvered the Aegis Gundam, transforming it into its Mobile Armor form, and charged towards Mikazuki Augus and Kira Yamato.
Mikazuki Augus saw the Aegis Gundam charging rapidly towards him, his eyes narrowing. Just as he was about to draw his blade, the comms chimed.
"Mikazuki, can you leave this unit to me?"
Kira Yamato's voice sounded somewhat complex. Hearing Kira Yamato's request, Mikazuki Augus's battle intent largely faded. He remembered what Orga Itsuka had told him before the sortie.
Kira Yamato and the pilot of that "spider" seemed to be friends. After a pause, he said,
"Alright, be careful. That guy is quite troublesome."
"Thanks."
Kira Yamato breathed a sigh of relief and quickly thanked him.
He was most afraid that Mikazuki Augus would directly destroy that unit this time. After all, he had witnessed Mikazuki Augus's fight with Athrun Zala back in Heliopolis, and seeing Athrun Zala almost destroyed at the end had given him a cold sweat.
This time, he absolutely dared not let Mikazuki Augus fight Athrun Zala again.
Mikazuki Augus piloted Barbatos away from that area of space, leaving room for Kira Yamato and Athrun Zala, who was rapidly charging towards Kira Yamato.
