Immortal Soul of Steel

After the Abyss Gundam was defeated, Zhen Asuka gasped and looked at the Gaia Gundam not far away.

"It's all...it's all your fault, if it wasn't you..."

Pulling out the beam rifle, the air combat type Pulse Gundam was about to shoot Gaia Gundam when he saw two green beams smashing Gaia Gundam's head and right arm.

Along with two explosions, a voice sounded in the communication channel.

"Really, are you okay!?"

When the furious Zhen Asuka heard the sound, he was shocked. He turned his head and saw the Freedom Gundam flying over.

"Freedom Gundam? Mr. Kira!?"

The Freedom Gundam flew over and stopped next to the air combat type Pulse Gundam.

"Yes, it's me."

"I'm sorry, because some of my actions have put you under too much pressure."

"But fortunately, I got back in time. Everyone on the Minerva is okay. You, Luna, and Ray are all okay too."

Lin Youde's words stunned the furious Zhen Feiniao.

"The Minerva is okay? What about the explosion just now!?"

Lin Youde replied: "It was the explosion caused by the enemy's mobile suit being destroyed."

After hearing this, Zhen·Asuka quickly retreated from the SEED burst state.

His eyes once again regained their original brightness, and the exhaustion on his face was revealed.

"So, so good..."

"Really, you are quite capable. You actually defeated a Gundam."

After receiving Lin Youde's praise, Zhen Feiniao chuckled sheepishly.

"It's okay. But, Mr. Kira, there are still two new models..."

Before Shin Asuka could finish his words, Luna's voice interrupted him.

"There is no need to worry anymore. The two new machines have been defeated."

"On the way here, Mr. Kira blew out the right arm and head display of the Chaos Gundam with just a few shots."

"Ray took the opportunity to chop off the other arm of the Chaos Gundam with an axe."

"The Chaos Gundam was captured by Lei and brought back to the Minerva."

"This Gaia Gundam looks like it can continue fighting."

After Luna said this, Zhen Asuka realized that the Gaia Gundam had stopped making any movement and was parked quietly in the universe.

"Luna, disarm the Gaia Gundam and bring it back to the Minerva."

"This machine is originally a machine made by your ZAFT. If it can be recycled, there is no need to destroy it."

"The driver inside can also explain to us their true identity."

Luna obeyed Lin Youde's instructions obediently.

"Okay, Mr. Kira. Thank you so much for your support this time."

"If it weren't for you, I don't know what would have happened."

"Obviously we are responsible for the pursuit, but it turns out to be like this. It's really... so embarrassing."

Lin Youde comforted him as he watched the red Zaku warriors disarm the Gaia Gundam and begin their return journey with the Gaia Gundam.

"There is nothing to be ashamed of. The enemy is well prepared and has many veterans."

"And you are new recruits who have rushed out, and there is a huge gap in numbers. It is already very good to be able to fight like this."

"Not to mention, didn't you really defeat a Gundam? It's already very strong."

Lin Youde looked at the air combat type Pulse Gundam and the wreckage of the Abyss Gundam behind the Pulse Gundam with resentment.

‘This hidden mission is probably in vain. ’

‘Dirandal entrusted me with the task of solving three Gundams. Now I have only solved two. I hope it can be considered as completing a hidden mission. ’

Lin Youde was a little regretful that he was unable to defeat three new Gundams in one go.

But if you really want to say how angry you are, it's not that big of a deal.

Zhen·Niaohui broke out SEED at this time, which was indeed beyond Lin Youde's expectation.

But this battle involved huge changes from the original work, and Lin Youde acted without authorization, which brought a certain degree of danger.

It is the best situation that can ensure the safety of everyone.

As for the completion of the hidden mission, Lin Youde also has the mentality of completing it to the best of his ability and accepting it if he cannot complete it.

So this time, Lin Youde only felt a little resentful and dispersed the negative emotions in his heart, speaking to Zhen Feiniao.

"Let's go back. Now that all the enemies have been defeated, it's time for us to return."

"We will have to attack again soon to capture another group of prisoners."

Under the command of Lin Youde, the air combat type Pulse Gundam followed the Freedom Gundam and began to return.

Zhen Asuka, who was resting on the cockpit seat, breathed out a sigh of relief, but at the same time, he was still a little confused.

"Another group of prisoners? What are they?"

Lin Youde returned while opening his task panel.

"Of course it's the mothership of these people."

"What do you think I did before? I didn't go out just to mess around, I had a goal and a plan."

Lin Youde's words made Zhen Feiniao and Luna almost jump up from their seats in shock.

If it weren't for the restraints of the seat belts, they would have really jumped.

"What? The enemy's mothership?" Zhen Asuka's eyes widened in disbelief.

"Mr. Kira, you are saying that you defeated the enemy's mothership by yourself, right?" Luna swallowed and asked cautiously.

Lin Youde looked at the information on the mission panel, his eyes lit up, and he returned with a smile.

"That's right."
