After introducing Celestial Being and its goal. The group were a bit speechless.
"You are saying they want to unite the world with their Gundams?" Marrybell was a bit speechless. For one, these guys were building Gundams! That's supposed to be their trademark Mobile suits!
"Indeed. They will use Gundam's overwhelming power to make the world unite against them. Once they have beaten the whole world, they will eventually share their technology."
"There is one thing that I don't get." Suzaku, who was listening to the whole thing, looked confused.
"They will unite against Celestial Being, but what about afterwards? Once Celestial Being shares their tech, what will unite them then?
For our Empire was the infinite possibilities of the cosmos. The whole world was united to explore and conquer the very stars. It's our destiny to rule everything."
Marcus looked at his childhood friend. He was a bit surprised. Suzaku Kururugi sounded patriotic and believed in the Empire's ideology.
"Indeed. But we are not here to care about them. We are here to use Celestial Being." The Emperor, with a hand motion, summoned a list.
"Milly, Marrybell and Euphemia. I want you to use your retinues to infiltrate these companies." He offered them a huge selection of companies, from transportation to weaponry.
"These are the companies that support Celestial Being. I want you to be ready, as when they begin their interventions, we are going to use the chaos to proceed with the takeover."
"Good. I understand. We won't even need to fight the war." Marrybell's eyes widened as she realised how they would conquer the world without even lifting a finger.
"Amazing! As expected from Lulu!" Euphemia clapped her hands. This will be a master stroke!
"Crafty, quite the opposite from our first rodeo." Milly joked. This was the opposite of the initial declaration of independence in Japan.
"Indeed. For now, we have around two years. Use that time to infiltrate as much as possible. I will use my Anaheim as well."
"Hehehe, Lulu, are you back to selling prosthetics?" Euphemia joked as well. She recalled her early teenage years of seeing his Company change the world for many people.
"Something like that." He smiled as he got some ideas for this.
He sent the list to the trio of girls, and they read it over.
"We are going to need to return to our world. There is a considerable number of people we will need to involve in this scheme." Marrybell said to her Emperor.
"The portal will open in four days." Suzaku, as the guard of the week, knows when it opens.
"I see until then I can do my research on where to begin."
Marcus smiled at her as he got some idea.
"I will deal with these two big shoots."
He showed the Linear Train Industries and something called the Corner Foundation.
"Oh, you know something, do you?" Milly knows that look on his face.
"Indeed. These two have their own lofty goals of world domination. I am simply removing the rabble." The Emperor of the World said with a bit of a mocking smile.
"Someone has competition." Marcus's blonde wife teased him as she realised there are people in this world who are trying to do the same thing he does.
*Snort*
"Don't compare me with wannabes who never conquered a world before. This Corner family are nothing more than a bunch of people who joined the gig late and now are trying to pretend they know better."
"You mean like us?" Milly rolled her eyes at her husband's outburst.
"The difference between them and us is that they waited for over a hundred years, and we, we just arrived here and are springing into action in a matter of days.
This is where we do, and they just talk." Marcus clarified to his naughty wife, who likes to tease him.
"Maybe~~~ anyway, I have things to do. My thanks for the list. Now I know what to do~." The blonde winked at him before ending the call from her side.
"Same. We have things to prepare. I will see you later." Marrybell and Euphemia followed as they ended their calls.
Once they were gone. Marcus looked at one of his Gundam pilots.
"We are going to do our own thing as well." With a flick of a button, he accessed something that made Suzaku raise one of his eyebrows.
"Are those… Gundams?"
"Indeed. We are going to acquire these Thrones. We shall dismantle the Corner family's little plan before Celestial Being even begins with their interventions; we shall prepare in the background." Marcus said with a smile.
"Sign me up." The brown-haired Knight smiled a bit it has been years since he did anything remotely exciting.
"In that case, are you willing to stay in this reality? Because this won't happen over a day. We need to prepare.
This Corner family is heavily involved in the Solar Power business and is part of something called the United Nations."
"...United Nations?" Suzaku was a bit confused, but then he did some reading.
"...You mean to tell me there were over two hundred nations in this world?" The brown-haired knight looked baffled by the number of flags he saw!
"...Isn't it a bit counterproductive with so many borders and languages?" He exclaimed, growing more confused by the moment. By this point, after over five years living in the Empire, there is only one language, and everyone can communicate without issue!
"Indeed. But it's something they call… freedom."
"...Right… I leave the details to you; this is a bit too much for me." The Knight ended up even more confused with the world he was in.
From tech to the political landscape, this world was just weird to him. After seeing what true world peace looks like and what it takes to maintain it, the knight is not convinced this Celestial Being knows what it takes to bring it.
That is why he is volunteering to help Marcus take over this world and bring true Peace to this reality as well.
~~~
While the plan is not difficult to execute, what they need is finesse. The Corner Family is considered old blood, the old guard. They are deep-rooted in the current world order and part of the Union.
On top of that, they are part of the United Nations and serve on the Executive Board that runs Solar Power.
So, simply removing this Alejandro Corner is not the easiest thing to do. High profile dissapearances can be tricky.
That is why Marcus decided to see how well he could use Veda in this situation. Fraud can be very damaging. All he needed to do was uncover some dirt and spread it out on the Corner family.
But it's not that simple either. Midway, Marcus realised that he could replace the Corner's in UN and the board related to Solar Power.
For that, he needs to enter the energy business, and to do that, he decided to sell superior batteries. He already has the tech, so it's not the hardest thing to do.
Besides, he tested out his synthetic version of Sakuradite; it was the perfect place to do so.
With that in mind, Marcus bought out a struggling battery company and rebranded it Anaheim Energy, a branch of Anaheim Robotics.
The transition was smooth for him since he bought in Union's territory, where he already has a considerable amount of influence with the help of his Geass and Veda's manipulations.
Speaking of Veda. The Emperor designed and programmed an OS that can interact with Veda and Legion. His AI can send commands to Veda, which it can process.
This is what he needed, as he was lacking the processing power in this reality. He can't just make data centres magically appear.
But now he has Veda, who can do the heavy lifting until he has a better alternative.
And so, Marcus and Suzaku got into place to carry out their first mission: the removal of Team Trinity.
Team Trinity was 'branded' as a secondary Gundam Meisters group. In truth, they were tools for the Corner Family and their plot for World's Domination.
So the first thing they are going to do is start chipping away at the Corner Family.
While his energy company is nowhere near ready to replace Corner Family, he is making this attack to make some dirt on this family. Being part of the UN peace board and developing weapons? Now that's naughty…
"Approaching the base of Team Trinity," Suzaku said to Marcus over the comms.
The pair of them were in their Gundams.
"Looks like a base built in an asteroid." The Duel's Pilot commented as his mech's scanners were scanning the whole thing.
"I am getting strange readings. Is this the GN particle you were talking about?"
The knight showed him a couple of readings he got.
Marcus got the same thing. This is the very first time he is encountering this particle on his sensors.
"Indeed."
"There is a movement." Duel pulled out its beam rifle as the asteroid was opening, revealing a spaceship docked inside of it.
Though what they were looking at more closely was three machines emitting red particles.
'How did they notice us?' Marcus frowned, but then a window popped up as he saw a schematic for radar based on GN Particles.
'We emit gravity wells, did they use that?' The Emperor's mobile suit pulled out its two 3rd-generation Hyper Impact Beam Rifles.
"I thought we could surprise them and get those mobile suits without a fight, I guess, I was wrong." The Inventor commented as he used the zoom-in feature to inspect the trio of thrones.
"I don't know who you guys are, but you found this place, so I will need to kill you all!" The Orange Gundam declared that its sections on the legs had opened.
"Go my fangs!!!"
Eight dart-like objects shoot out from the mobile suit.
"Permission to eliminate targets, Your Majesty!" Suzaku's mobile suit got in front of Marcus.
"Go, disable them. We need legitimate data; schematics are one thing."
"Understood… For the Empire!"
Duel's eyes glowed as blue particles it emitted magnified its output several times, and the mobile suit pulled out its 3rd-generation beam rifle and shot at the incoming fangs.
The sheer blast of the shoot incinerated several of the fangs before rushing towards the three Celestial Being's Thrones.
Though before they were touched, the machines dodged the attacks.
'Impressive reaction speed of these Gundams'
Suzaku swiftly noticed that these machines were superior to Zaku's he recalled from the war.
"My fangs! You will pay for what you did!" The orange machine's pilot complained as he pulled out a broad sword and rushed towards Suzaku with the remaining Fang's changeing their angles and rushing towards Duel from the sides.
The G-Force machine swiftly shoots several more beam shots to destroy a couple more fangs before pulling out a beam saber to intercept the incoming Orange Gundam Throne.
"That is not good enough! Cut him apart, my fangs!"
Two remaining fangs almost cut the Gundam up, but then it got extremely fast and delivered a kick to the Orange Gundam's face and then shot the head off.
"No way! Jonathan, Nina, help me, damn it!"
As the Celestial Being's Gundam complained, Suzaku noticed something bad about this.
'That fang thing… it cut through my Gravity Well protection!'
Every single 3rd-generation Gundam made in the Empire has this protection; it can easily stop beams, physical attacks, or any other physical objects that try to reach it.
The nano-metal is used to make the mech, which practically makes it indestructible. Until they encountered these GN particles.
'According to the initial reports on the particle, it can affect gravity.' Suzaku had a couple sweats drop from his forehead.
There were a couple of small cuts on his Duel's frame.
He didn't have much time to think as the other two mobile suits joined the attack. The black one that had a huge cannon on its shoulder targeted Suzaku while the red one opened fire with it's beam rifle.
But then Tiranis, behind him, opened fire, and all of a sudden, an all-out conflict between Gundams began.
