Chapter 296 - Chapter 296: Freedom and Justice Enter the Battlefield, Eternal Arrives

Under command, the Destiny Support Fighter and Genesis Dragoon Wireless Guided Weapons disengaged from their entanglement with the Providence Dragoon Wireless Guided Weapons, charging straight toward the Vesalius.

Inside the Providence Gundam Cockpit

Creuset watched these tactical changes without any change in expression, his fingers rapidly pressing command keys.

The Providence Dragoon Wireless Guided Weapons did not pursue but instead concentrated their assault toward the Genesis Gundam.

Inside the Genesis Gundam Cockpit

Felix perceived the movements of the Providence Dragoon Wireless Guided Weapons through his eyes and abilities, a cold smile appearing on his face.

With that cold smile, his hands swiftly executed maneuvers.

The Genesis Gundam performed a series of complex movements in an instant!

Seeing this, Creuset pressed command keys to adjust the trajectory of the Providence Dragoon Wireless Guided Weapons.

During the adjustment, their cannons fired at the Genesis Gundam.

As operations shifted, the Genesis Gundam continued to evade the attacks.

The Anti-Beam Shield deflected an incoming beam, while the Beam Rifle fired toward the left front.

Creuset quickly executed maneuvers in response!

The targeted Providence Dragoon Wireless Guided Weapon performed evasive maneuvers.

The first incoming beam was dodged.

Immediately, a second beam followed, accurately striking that Providence Dragoon Wireless Guided Weapon.

Watching another Dragoon Wireless Guided Weapon being destroyed, a look of gravity crossed Creuset's face.

At that moment, two beeps sounded in the cockpit as a reminder.

Creuset instantly understood the situation and controlled the Dragoon Wireless Guided Weapons to return for recharging.

"Perfect opportunity!"

Felix seized the chance swiftly.

The Genesis Gundam charged toward the Providence Gundam at high speed.

Inside the Providence Gundam Cockpit

Seeing the approaching Genesis Gundam, Creuset controlled the Providence Gundam to move backward while evading, simultaneously firing its Beam Rifle and the beam guns on the Composite Weaponry Defense Shield System at the Genesis Gundam.

Multiple beams surged forth!

The Genesis Gundam dodged to the left while performing a somersault.

Evading all beams, it raised its Beam Rifle, firing a beam from the muzzle.

The Providence Gundam lifted its Composite Weaponry Defense Shield System to defend its chest.

The beam had no effect against the anti-beam coating.

Swinging its arm, the Providence Gundam fired its Beam Rifle.

The beam shot straight toward the cockpit of the Genesis Gundam.

Felix operated with both hands and feet simultaneously, the Genesis Gundam rolling to evade while making fine positional adjustments.

While avoiding the attack, the two Whale Plasma Cluster Beam Cannons fired beams.

Pressing the forward pedals deeply!

The Genesis Gundam pursued the beams, rapidly closing in on the Providence Gundam.

In an airspace not far from the battle between Genesis and Providence

A Nelson-class Heavy Firepower Battleship along with two Drake-class Space Frigates arrived here.

On the Bridge of the Nelson-class Heavy Firepower Battleship

Badgiruel, seated in the captain's chair, heard the radar operator's report.

"Captain, large heat sources detected 600 kilometers ahead, along with two small, high-speed moving heat sources."

Badgiruel gazed at the space ahead, calmly issuing orders.

"Analyze carefully!"

A voice echoed across the bridge, and Badgiruel immediately continued issuing orders.

"Cease forward movement! Mobile Suit Force, deploy for alert and prepare for combat at any moment!"

"Yes!"

The response rang out once more.

Badgiruel stared ahead with a grave expression, her fingers lightly tapping the armrest of her seat as she pondered internally.

Inside the Genesis Gundam's cockpit

While piloting the Genesis Gundam, Felix used his abilities to detect anomalies within a thousand-kilometer radius.

'Three battleships?'

Based on the objects' characteristics and perceived size, Felix murmured to himself.

As he spoke, Felix turned the control stick to the left.

The Genesis Gundam dodged to the left, evading the beam fired by the Providence Gundam.

Multitasking, Felix kept his eyes on the Providence Gundam while pressing the weapon selection button on the control stick.

The weapon selection display showed the Beam Saber.

With a confirmation press, the Genesis Gundam stored its Beam Rifle on the rear skirt armor and instantly drew the Beam Saber.

A swift draw slash was unleashed toward the Providence Gundam.

Creuset stepped on the backward pedal, and the Providence Gundam retreated, narrowly avoiding the dangerous slash.

Seeing the draw slash fail, Felix pressed the command button, activating a preset maneuver from the action library.

The Genesis Gundam pursued with the Beam Saber, executing an upward slash from the lower left.

The Providence Gundam retreated to evade, and at that moment, the Providence Dragoon Wireless Guided Weapons detached from its back-mounted arsenal.

Moving through space, beams erupted from the barrels of the Providence Dragoon Wireless Guided Weapons!

...

On the bridge of the Earth Alliance Forces' combined fleet flagship

"Commander, detecting high-speed thermal signatures approaching!"

The radar operator, watching the thermal signatures on the screen, turned and urgently reported to Thurman.

Thurman's expression tightened, but before he could issue a command, a massive volley of beams and air-to-air missiles surged into the battlefield.

The sudden, overwhelming attack caught both Earth Alliance Forces and ZAFT Mobile Suit pilots off guard as they were locked in combat.

Numerous Mobile Suits had their limbs, weapons, and heads struck, plunging the battlefield into instant chaos.

On the bridge of the Athena

"Captain, an unusual situation!"

Oakley turned to alert Aric.

Snapping out of his momentary daze at the warning, Aric looked at the screen display and issued an order.

"Assess the damage!"

"Yes!"

Oakley and Kirkland responded simultaneously, immediately carrying out Aric's command.

Meanwhile, on the battlefield

"What's happening?"

Heine muttered grimly, staring in the direction of the sudden attack.

The next moment, he saw the Freedom Gundam and Justice Gundam charging into the battlefield through his screen.

The moment they entered the fray, the two Mobile Suits utilized their powerful firepower configurations to unleash relentless attacks on both the Earth Alliance Forces and ZAFT!

'The Freedom Gundam? The Justice Gundam?'

Heine inwardly noted the two Mobile Suits, then asked himself with deep concern.

'Is Miss Clyne intervening in this battle?'

As he pondered this, a firm plea for ceasefire came through the communicator.

"Both sides, cease your fighting!"

The voice reached his ears, and Heine naturally recognized it as Miss Lacus Clyne's voice.

And this recognition wasn't limited to Heine alone; other ZAFT soldiers also identified Lacus's voice.

"Miss Clyne?"

"Miss Lacus?"

Puzzled voices came through the communications.

Following these confused reactions, a voice filled with dissatisfaction and displeasure sharply questioned:

"What is that shameless traitor Lacus Clyne doing here?!"
