Immortal Soul of Steel

Uzmi looked at Lin Youde doubtfully.

Lin Youde squeezed Lux's hand and replied with a smile.

"Why do you think the Freedom Gundam equipped with an anti-neutron jammer was fired by me, the now nominal Orb Prince?"

"Did you drive back to Orb without any obstruction?"

Uzumi narrowed his eyes, and after a moment of silence, he looked at Lax: "Is this what your father meant?"

Lux nodded, then shook her head: "It was dad's idea, but this decision was made at Kira's suggestion."

Uzmi looked at Lin Youde in surprise: "What's your suggestion?"

Lin Youde admitted frankly: "Yes, I suggested Uncle Siegel to do this."

Uzmi sat on the chair and was silent for a long time.

The depression caused by the silence made Cagalli unbearable. Then he asked Lin Youde.

"Why? Bring the anti-neutron jammer. Aren't P.L.A.N.T. afraid that we will build a nuclear bomb again?"

Lin Youde smiled and said: "Of course P.L.A.N.T. knows about this kind of thing. But this is exactly the effect we want to achieve."

"Cagalli, let me ask you. Do you think that Orb's power alone can defend the country under the all-out attack of the Earth Alliance?"

Cagalli shook her head: "Of course that's impossible, there are too many people in the Earth Alliance..."

As she said that, Cagalli suddenly frowned: "Wait a minute, why did the Earth Alliance attack us?"

Lin Youde explained patiently: "Because, Aubrey has many adjusters who don't want to be involved in the war, and there are also a few mass launchers on the earth."

"There are not many mass transmitters on Earth, but there are several."

"But now there is not one that can be obtained by the Atlantic Federation."

Cagalli was confused: "What do you mean? I don't quite understand. What does it mean that the Earth Federation has a mass transmitter, but the Atlantic Federation does not?"

Lin Youde: "In the previous battle of Alaska, all those who died were soldiers from the Eurasian coalition. No one from the Atlantic Federation died."

"Do you think the people of the Eurasian Federation will agree to the Atlantic Federation's request to borrow a mass launcher after their own people have been so miserably cheated?"

Cagalli was stunned: "This..."

Lin Youde continued: "Although the Atlantic Federation can use force, the people of the Eurasian Federation are not stupid, and they will definitely refuse for various reasons. Either the mass transmitter is directly dismantled, or there is some kind of malfunction that needs to be repaired. In short , Delay it as long as you can, it will definitely not satisfy the Atlantic Federation."

"Without the Eurasian United Mass Launcher, if the Earth United wants to regain the air supremacy in the universe, it can only start from other places."

"One, recapture the mass launcher lost by the Atlantic Federation."

"Two, come and grab Orb's mass launcher."

"Before choosing to fight ZAFT, it must be simpler and more cost-effective to bully a small country like Orb, right?"

Cagalli's face turned a little pale: "This..."

At this time, Uzmi spoke: "So, you brought the anti-neutron jammer?"

Lin Youde smiled and nodded: "Yes, that's exactly it."

"With conventional combat power alone, there is no way Orb can defend it."

"And because Orb is a neutral country, it cannot fall to the Earth United or ZAFT."

"So even if the Earth unites to attack, ZAFT will not help."

"And once Orb turns to ZAFT, he will lose the concept of neutrality. He will not be able to appeal to neutral countries like before. In that case, Orb will be useless."

"The opposite is also true."

"So, if you want to keep Orb, nuclear bombs are the real key."

At this time, Cagalli finally understood: "But, Kira, we have nuclear bombs, will it be too dangerous? Once the Earth United and ZAFT know about it, won't they attack us?"

Lin Youde smiled and said: "Of course not, or in other words, it doesn't matter if you know."

"Although we will claim to the outside world that we developed the anti-neutron jammer ourselves."

"But Zaft knows that they gave it to them."

"And we are a neutral country and cannot launch wars with other countries. So even if we have nuclear bombs in our hands, we cannot use them."

"Once used, the concept of a neutral country will naturally be abolished."

"So, our nuclear bombs will only be used to defend the country and serve as a deterrent, and pose the least threat."

"and……"

Lin Youde narrowed his eyes: "Things like nuclear bombs will be taken out sooner or later as the battle intensifies."

"Whether ZAFT actively uses nuclear bombs, or the Earth Alliance uses other methods to obtain anti-neutron jammer technology."

"In the subsequent war, nuclear bombs will definitely appear."

"So, nuclear bombs will appear sooner or later, so why not let us use them first. It will deter some people with evil intentions."

"By the way, it will increase our prestige."

Lin Youde looked at Cajiali seriously: "Peace is not something that can be shouted out through slogans. It can be established through one's own strength."

“Peace without power is just a castle in the air that may collapse at any time.”

"So, the power of nuclear bombs is necessary."

Cagalli was speechless under Lin Youde's gaze.

Although she wanted to refute, she didn't know how to say it. He could only look at Uzumi helplessly.

But Uzumi did not respond to her expectations, but smiled happily.

"Kira, it's really good that you can think of this."

Lin Youde responded with a smile: "This is what I should do. After all, I don't want Orb to be destroyed by the United Earth."

As he spoke, Lin Youde kept muttering in his heart.

‘Orb’s destruction was a major event in the original work. If I can change this thing, then the reward for the hidden mission must be very generous, right? ’

‘And after the plot of SEED is over, we still don’t know how the plot of SEED-D will develop. ’

‘I still have things to do in reality, so I can’t stay in this world forever. It's okay to make out with Lux once in a while. ’

‘I can’t do it if I stay here every day to deal with government affairs. ’

‘So, Uzmi, just continue to live and take care of Orb. ’

‘As long as you live, I believe those bad things like SEED-D will never happen. ’

‘And I can continue to live a leisurely life with Lux. ’

‘This is simply a good thing that achieves multiple things with one stone~! ’

Uzmi didn't know Lin Youde's thoughts. But this did not prevent Uzmi from casting a satisfied look at Lin Youde.

"I'm really happy that you have such a long-term vision and a view of the big picture, Kira."

Lin Youde smiled and said: "Haha, this is what I should do."

As he said that, Lin Youde suddenly slapped his forehead: "By the way, Aslan may come over later. By then, we should probably arrange the marriage between Aslan and Cagalli."

Cagalli jumped up on the spot: "What???"
