Chapter 238: The Adjuster and the Natural Man
"Wait! What's the deal with boarding permits? ”
"Hey, hey, kidding, right? The young master of the Obu Yang family assisted the earth in the joint development of MS? Aren't you a neutral country? ”
"No kidding! Yang Hui, this is the latest cutting-edge warship of the Earth Army, and [Plan G], all of which are top secrets, you ......"
Facing the questions of the three highest-ranking people present, Yang Hui answered them one by one, of course, the incomplete kind.
"As you heard, the X Series was robbed of 4 units, but isn't there still one left? In terms of the results so far...... It's not complete, is it? Brigadier Halbarton promised us a very high reward, and I don't want to leave the handle behind, and I won't get paid for my efforts, so I'll follow the Strike Gundam for the time being, knowing that it's completely complete. This is the answer to Maruch.
"There is no doubt that Orb is a neutral country, and this cooperation with the Atlantic Federation is a simple transaction, and does not involve a change of political position, as for why...... Sorry, but there is no comment on Orb's confidentiality. This is the answer to Mu.
"I was already involved in the development of the [G series], so it's not a secret to me, as for the Archangel number...... Am I not aware of secrets now? This was an answer to Bucky Lulu, and she stepped on the ejection deck a few times, telling her that I was waiting to get on board, and I was talking about a secret?
"This ......"
"What's going on......"
"You!"
The expressions of the three people are different, and every answer given by Yang Hui is reasonable, and it is difficult to refute them, especially the permission to board the ship, the performance of the Strike Gundam has not been fully displayed, and similarly, the problems and flaws are also, as the only remaining half-finished product of [Project G], it is the most important task at present to safely deliver it to the commander of the 8th Orbital Fleet, Commodore Duane Halbarton.
Although four of them have been robbed, the technical information must be leaked, but it can't be completely used as a wedding dress for the ZAFT, and the hope of whether the Federation can build MS troops is all on the Strike Gundam.
In the same way, as a semi-finished product, it must be impossible to make a difference, after all, [Plan G] was carried out by Duane Halbarton and others by force, and it also used a lot of shady means, if there is no result at all, the high-level of the Atlantic Federation will not let him go, and the people or organizations who were coerced and lured at the beginning will not let him go.
So...... As the only surviving top-level R&D personnel in [Project G], Yang Hui was the most suitable and perfect result for him to complete the Strike Gundam with the team.
It's just that...... His identity is too sensitive, and a bad one will completely change the pattern of the earth and PLANT.
"You do this...... Orb won't agree, so I'm not going to grant you permission to board the ship. Ma Liu shook her head and rejected Yang Hui.
Although she is also eager to see G's completion, as long as G can be safely delivered to the hands of the Earth Union, it is only a matter of time before it is completed, only that it will take longer.
But Yang Hui's big trouble is imminent, and he takes the initiative to squeeze on his body, so he must quickly push it away.
Let's not talk about what kind of trouble Yang Hui will cause when he boards the battleship of the Earth Army, as far as the current situation is concerned, ZAFT's battleship is still eyeing [Heliopolis], and they have no other combat power in their hands except for the Assault Gundam and the uneven Archangel, whether they can escape from ZAFT's hands and successfully rendezvous with friendly forces is unknown, and Maru does not dare to let Yang Hui follow them on an adventure.
"Okay." Yang Hui spread his hands, he knew Ma Liu's character, he would never give him permission to board the ship, and he didn't force it, after all, his identity was here, if he forced it like a licking dog, Ma Lu and the others would have to doubt their purpose.
But if he doesn't give permission to board the ship now, it doesn't mean that he can't stay on the Archangel.
"But now......" Yang Hui looked in the direction of the Strike Gundam, or the direction where the Kira Five were.
"What about them? Why do civilian kids drive MS? Mu knew that Yang Hui's problem could not be studied deeply, so he also followed Yang Hui's intention to move the topic to another place.
"Ah, that's right, when he was attacked, he didn't know why he appeared in the factory area, it was too dangerous at the time, I let him board the Strike Gundam, his name is Kira Yamato."
"Huh?"
Seeing that Mu's attitude towards Kira was full of suspicion, Malu hurriedly added.
"Thanks to him, I broke a [Jean] before, and repelled that [Xigu], and finally held the last G."
"Defeated [Jean]? You say that little kid!? Bucky Lulu exclaimed, they all knew that the repulsion of [Sigu] was something they all knew, but the gap between repulsion and defeat was still very large, making it even more difficult for them to believe.
"I'm here to escort those rookie pilots, how are they?" Mu asked.
"At the time of the explosion, they happened to greet the captain at the command platform, and they ...... together."
"This is ......" is another sad topic, although it is not an acquaintance, but it is also a member of the Earth Army, and it is also a life, so it simply passed away, and no one can turn a blind eye.
However, the information provided by Malu allowed Mu to confirm a certain conjecture, and Mu took the lead and came to Kira with everyone.
"How...... What's wrong? Kira was nervous in the face of everyone's burning eyes.
"You...... It's a tweaker, right? In order not to scare Kira, Mu's tone was soft, although he was an Earth Army, he was not a fanatic himself, and he was hostile to all adjusters.
“…… Yes. ”
"Click~"
With Kira's affirmative answer, the soldier on the side pulled the bolt.
Thor and the others were frightened, but they still stood in front of Kira.
"What do you want to do?" Yang Hui also stood between the soldiers and Kira, looking at the soldiers with a calm gaze, "Kira is a national of Orb. ”
"Put the gun down!" Marlu immediately scolded the soldiers, she could see that the soldiers were quite nervous, they were not the same group of fanatics, they were now at war with the ZAFT, and they had survived the ZAFT attack before, and a modulator suddenly appeared in front of them, and they subconsciously regarded Kira as an enemy.
But Ma Lu heard two meanings in Yang Hui's words.
One is to tell everyone that Orb is a neutral country, and the people have natural persons and adjusters, and [Heliopolis] is Orb's colonial satellite, and it is normal for adjusters to appear, and Kira is not an enemy.
The second is to tell everyone that Kira is Obu's national, so Yang Hui, as an important person in Obu, will definitely protect his people.
If the soldiers did hurt Kira, it would not just be a fight between the natural man and the adjuster, it would directly turn into an international problem.
And...... Looking at the nervous appearance of the soldiers, she was also afraid of going off, after all, Yang Hui was standing on the ray.
The soldiers' nervousness cooled under Maliu's angry rebuke, and they looked back at each other in a bit of a dazed manner, but in the end, they obeyed Maliu's order to lower their guns.
"What, it's clear that Kira was saved, but this kind of attitude."
"It's just, ungrateful."
The four of Thor muttered that Kira was their friend and everyone's lifesaver, and anyone who was actually saved was pointed at a gun, and everyone would feel uncomfortable.
"Captain Ramias, what the hell is this ......" Bucky Lulu wondered, why did Malu give the important G to a civilian teenager? What's more, he's still a adjuster.
"There's no need to make a fuss, right? Many adjusters moved to Heliopolis in neutral countries because they didn't want to be drawn into the war, right? Kira. ”
"Uh...... Well, yes, because I'm a first-generation adjuster. Kira replied.
(PS: The first generation adjuster refers to the adjuster who has adjusted the genetics before birth, and the second and third generations are the offspring born after the combination of the adjuster.) )
"In other words, your parents are natural people." Speaking of this, Mu also left a little embarrassed, after all, he picked up this topic, "I'm really embarrassed, I actually wanted to ask about such a big mess." ”
"Captain Flaka......"
"On the way here, I watched the mock training and start-up tests of the pre-pilots, and just to get the body to move slowly, they have to work hard, and people have to die more than people." Mu sighed.
No matter how many subjective factors exist in the world, the objective gap is a fact, and no one can deny it, and the adjuster is indeed better than the natural person.
"Captain, where are you going?" Seeing that one of the two highest officials on the scene was leaving, Bucky Lulu hurriedly asked.
"Where else can I go? I was shot and forced to land, but the enemy outside was Team Kreuzer. ”
"Huh?"
Everyone was shocked, the Kreuzer team was a well-known elite unit of ZAFT, when Kreuzer was not yet the captain of the white coat, in the battle of Antimion, he drove the high-mobility [Jean] alone to break the entire [Mobius Zero] team, leaving Mu alone as a survivor.
Since that battle, it has been rumored that Kreuzer, who is not the adjuster, has fought his way out of many excellent adjusters and become the captain of an elite unit.
"Is it really him?"
"yes, so we're in a lot of trouble right now, instead of caring about Kira's status as an adjuster, let's think about how to get through this crisis first, with what I know about him, he won't stop there, neutral country or something...... There is no restraint on him. ”
"No...... No way...... Even if it's Team Kreuzer, it's not going to mess around in [Heliopolis], right? ”
"It should be waiting for us outside [Heliopolis] to fight inside......"
"Haven't they already done that? The captain was killed by them! ”
"So what do we do? This ship doesn't have much combat power, and it's fighting inside a colonial satellite, and if you're not careful, [Heliopolis] will be finished! ”
……
"Silence!" Seeing that everyone was panicked and confused, Bucky Lulu scolded angrily, and then asked Maliu: "Captain Ramias, you are now the head of the Archangel, what should we do?" ”
Everyone looked at Malu and regarded her as the backbone.
"......" met everyone's gaze, and the heavy responsibility was on her shoulders, although it was heavy, but Malu had to carry this responsibility, "...... All Level 2 combat readiness, check the [Aurora Society], prioritize the recovery of all available parts of the Strike Gundam, and then replenish the ship's supplies to prepare for the ZAFT attack! ”
"Understood!" XN
There are not enough people, they don't know if they can do such a heavy task, but they can only do it, because this is their only hope.
When everyone dispersed, the five people of Kira would stay in the Archangel for the time being, no matter which country they were nationals, they already knew the top secret, and they must not be let go like this, as for Yang Hui......
"Yang Hui, you ...... now"
"I'm going to adjust the Strike Gundam, Kira, and I'm here to help."
"Huh!?"
