surprise,

Confuse,

All of them surged into Kira's heart.

But the siege of the Earth United Fleet continues.

Even though Liberty Gundam had just cleared a large area of ​​airspace, the vanguard aircraft group hovering around never retreated, and even the Earth fleet below was still releasing fighter jets to join the battle.

The light wing flashed past Kira's eyes, and the frigate below the right side of the Covenant Gundam was split into two by the Gao Zhoubo shock blade in the hands of Liberty Gundam.

"Stop! Teacher Kai..."

As the frigate sank, Covenant Gundam chased towards Liberty Gundam.

But the Covenant Gundam was unable to catch up with Liberty Gundam. On the contrary, he followed Liberty Gundam's footsteps and rushed into the attack network of the Earth fleet.

The radars of the Earth Combined Fleet and Pioneer Cluster cannot be seen or locked in Covenant Gundam, but they can lock in Free Gundam.

Even though their attacks could not touch the edge of Liberty Gundam, when they saw Covenant Gundam chasing Liberty Gundam, their firepower increased a little.

The purpose is to avoid Liberty Gundam as much as possible while also killing the weird Covenant Gundam.

But in the end, this plan may be just a waste of effort.

Under the light wings, Free Gundam will not be hit by their attacks at all.

"Teacher Kai! Stop it! You can't stop this war in this way!"

Finally, Kira gave up on chasing Liberty Gundam.

The backs that kept leaving behind afterimages in the sky seemed as far away as the illusory figure that was far away in the sky and could not be reached.

Looking at the increasingly dense barrage in front of him, Kira had to drive the Covenant Gundam to retreat for a distance away from the attack range of the manually controlled air-defense turret.

"Stop this war? Kira. Do you want to persuade me with your nonsense?"

When Free Gundam wanted to attack the Earth United Fleet and even touched the main fleet where the Earth Fleet's flagship was located, Lei Mingkai responded with a sneer.

"No! I don't mean that!"

Kira opened her mouth, but the moment the words reached her mouth, she turned into another look.

"Let's let the Earth jointly stop attacking Aubu first!"

"No. You don't need to worry about this!"

Three rays of light rose into the air from the Earth's joint main fleet.

The brightness it has, even if it is daytime now, is enough for everyone on this battlefield to see clearly.

It's a signal flare for retreat!

The Earth has retreated in union!

A series of scarred attack swords evacuated from the battlefield full of devastated, wrecked, and burning flames everywhere, leaving behind the opponent who was also scarred and almost unable to continue fighting, the M1 heresy.

"Is the end of the junction?"

The three-member test pilot group of Shuguang Club gasped, looking at the powerful attack sword that covered each other's retreat, and couldn't help feeling like they had survived the disaster.

"Get your spirits up! Girls! Be careful of the enemy's raids."

Compared to the threesome who were almost exhausted since the fierce battle, Mu's expression was much more serious.

Since participating in the frontline battle, Mu has clearly realized the gap in strength between Aubu and the Earth.

Even with the help of Liberty Gundam, the dark attack on Gundam and the Archangel, it is probably impossible to escape.

"This battle is not over yet! If possible, I hope you can take a break as much as possible!"

Nigol also knows this.

"Yes, yes! Understand!"

The trio responded quickly.

"Major Mu, that body..."

Nigol's eyes fell on the blood-red body confronting Liberty Gundam.

"I have no idea."

The moment the Covenant Gundam appeared and broadcasted, Mu had already heard of the other party's identity.

What Mu didn't expect was that the pilot of Covenant Gundam was the long-lost Kira Yamato.

Judging from the performance of Liberty Gundam, Lei Mingkai does not seem to express the intention of welcoming Kira's return.

On the contrary, through Liberty Gundam's movements, Mu seemed to see that Lei Mingkai seemed to be on guard against Kira.

"I notify the entire army that except for the third, fourth, fifth mecha brigade, first and third fleets are on guard, the rest of the troops will start to take turns to rest and replenish supplies according to the scheduled plan. The medical forces give priority to the rescue of seriously injured people!"

The Earth Joint Landing Force, which could not be captured for a long time, finally evacuated after leaving behind a city destroyed by war.

Looking at the destroyed city below,

Looking at the medical staff wearing red cross armbands, wearing blood-stained white clothes, running back and forth on the battlefield where the smoke was not dissipated, Kira suddenly felt powerless.

The propelling backpack slowly stopped operating, allowing Covenant Gundam to land on a relatively intact beach compared to the devastated battlefield.

Opposite to Covenant Gundam is Liberty Gundam.

Lei Mingkai had already stood in front of Liberty Gundam, looking at Covenant Gundam, and watching Kira Yamato walking down from the cockpit.

The setting sun sets, scattering the blood-red light on this battlefield, making the battlefield that has just stopped the war have a little more desolation and bleakness.

"Teacher Kai."

Standing on the soft beach, Kira looked at Liberty Gundam, and also looked at the Archangel slowly falling from the sky not far behind Liberty Gundam, and then looked at Lei Mingkai.

"No. Kira. I am not your teacher, nor anyone's teacher. I believe that you should know my identity from the person who handed this covenant Gundam to you."

The appearance of Covenant Gundam and Kira did surprise Lei Mingkai.

In Lei Mingkai's speculation, Kira might have occupied the oracle Gundam, which originally belonged to Kruze.

Unexpectedly, what appeared in front of me was this Gundam with a powerful "no killing" power.

Hearing Lei Mingkai's denial, Kira's eyes couldn't help but dim.

"Lei Mingkai, the last survivor of Julius 7, entered Zaft Military Academy after he recovered, but did not graduate successfully. After the action was unknown for a period of time, he participated in the Soul Consolation Group as an escort."

"Then, under the conspiracy of some people, died above Julius 7, and was posthumously regarded as a hero by the Supreme Council and Zaft for sacrificing himself to protect the safety of Lax Klein.

Is this how?"

Before Kira could finish speaking, Lei Mingkai continued.

Kira could only nod in silence.

"And what? Did those people say I'm a traitor or something?"

Lei Mingkai was curious about what would happen when he was standing in front of Liberty Gundam with Lux when he was taking Liberty Gundam and placing it on Patrick's desktop?

"No. I don't know. But she didn't say anything about you."

To Lei Mingkai's surprise, Zaft and the Supreme Council seemed to suppress the news of Liberty Gundam being seized.

"she?"

The one Kira said was probably the photocopier who replaced Lax Klein!

"Yes! Lux Klein."

Although Kira didn't say it clearly, his eyes might have explained everything.

"Kaz, Doll and the others have been looking for you for a long time. Go and get together with them!"

Although he spoke little, Kira felt Lei Mingkai's resistance.

"Teacher Kai..."

"No need to call me teacher anymore! Kira Yamato. I am just Zaft's deserter!"

Kira subconsciously reached out and wanted to call Lei Mingkai, but she failed to shout.

And while Lei Mingkai turned around and left, he looked excited and rushed out of the Archangel.

"Kira!! You're back!!"

Behind the reunited friend is Lei Mingkai's back gradually moving away.

And this scene was also seen by Mu.

"Sure enough!"

Even if I saw it, Mu had no choice.

The almost visible gap between the two cannot be resolved in any words.

If we pursue it, it may be that each of them has different ideas.

The night of the war is quiet, but also noisy.
To be continued...
