"It's really you... Kira." Although it was based on Ito Cheng's previous words, when he saw that familiar but obviously changed face again, Ma Liu still said hesitantly with a face full of disbelief.

"Yes." Kira nodded and confirmed.

"Kira~" After receiving the confirmation, before Malu could say anything, Mirialia behind her immediately broke out of the crowd and ran towards Kira. And with Mirialia taking the lead, everyone who was still a little reserved at first let go and ran to Kira's side, expressing their joy at being reunited and their disbelief at his survival.

After a brief but warm gathering, Kira walked back to Malu, Ito Cheng and Mu again, looked at Malu with a gentle face and asked, "Captain Malu has a lot to talk to me."

"Yeah." Malu responded softly with a smile on her face.

"I also have many things I want to tell Captain Malu." Kira said seriously, looking at Malu in front of him.

"Okay." Ma Liu agreed.

"Are you over there with zaft?". Mu Jie on the side asked. After all, Kira is now wearing Zaft's red protective suit, and Mu and the others are still in the Earth Army. Even if they are familiar with each other and are friends, they still need to ask some questions clearly, and at the same time, they can be mentally prepared.

"Yes." Hearing Mu's question, Kira turned to look at him and replied seriously, "But I am not the Zaft Army, and I am no longer the Earth Army."

Hearing Kira's answer, not only Malu and Mu were shocked, but even the other Archangel members standing here felt in disbelief.

"I understand." Malu lowered his head and sighed, then half-turned to look at Zi You Gundam standing aside and said, "That machine is... and what should I do?"

"If you are talking about preparing supplies, you don't need to worry for the time being, because this aircraft is equipped with a neutron interference moderator." Kira said seriously.

"You mean the neutron interference moderator?". Mu repeated in surprise.

"So is it nuclear powered?". Among the crowd, a bridge staff member said equally surprised.

"Where did this thing come from?" another bridge officer asked.

"If you want to extract data, I will refuse and leave here. Even if I am against everyone, I will protect it." Kira said solemnly.

"Kira." Malyu looked at Kira in surprise and murmured.

"What do you mean..." Mu Ye looked at Kira in shock.

"This is the responsibility I shoulder as I accept this machine." Kira said.

"I completely understand. We promise not to come into contact with that aircraft." Hearing this, the Malyu Goddess assured Kira seriously, then turned to the maintenance team members behind him and shouted, "You all heard me."

"Yes~" all the members of the maintenance team replied in unison

Then he turned to look at Ito Cheng next to him, staring at him very seriously. Seeing this, Ito Cheng shrugged indifferently and agreed.

"Thank you very much." Kira smiled.

Afterwards, everyone returned to the Archangel one after another after a short rest, preparing to discuss the next issues.

"Thank you for saving me, Mr. Ito Cheng." On the way, Kira thanked Ito Cheng beside him.

"It's nothing, it's just a little effort." Ito looked at Kira with a smile, and then asked, "What message didn't Lux ask you to bring me?"

"No." Kira shook her head.

"That's good." Ito Cheng smiled easily.

"Eh?" Kira looked at Ito Cheng who was smiling inexplicably.

"Nothing." Ito Cheng patted Kira on the shoulder and smiled.

"...Using the Alaska garrison and the Archangel as bait, the yin* attacking Zaft army entered the central circle of Alaska, and then remotely activated the Cyclops system to eliminate the defenders and the Zaft army together. This is the battle plan of the upper echelon of the Atlantic Federation. Yes." In the bridge, Kira, who had changed back into the Earth military uniform, repeated the Alaska battle plan again.

"Well, yes." Mu confirmed.

"And we didn't receive any notification." Ma Liu frowned and said in a low voice, obviously resentful of the behavior of the superiors who were sacrificed without informing them.

"The headquarters should have known that the target of the Zaft Army's attack was Alaska, and it was a long time ago. Otherwise, there would be no rush to install the Cyclops system underground." Mu speculated.

"The same goes for the plant." Kira whispered to himself, then raised his head to look at Malu and asked seriously, "What are your plans for the Archangel and Captain Malu next?"

"I don't know..." Ma Liu said helplessly, and then he looked at each other at Mu and Itocheng beside him and fell silent. \u003c said.

"How about we do emergency treatment and then go to Panama on our own?" the helmsman asked through the interface.

"Will they welcome us? We know so many things." Mu said with a troubled face.

"Of course not. Have you ever heard of anyone who had a good ending after knowing the secret?" Ito Cheng said beside him.

"Also, if this ship leaves the battle line without orders, it will also be considered as deserting." Ma Liu said in a heavy tone.

"Even if he returns to the original team, will he be subject to a military trial?" the helmsman said softly to himself.

"That means there will be a bunch of additional charges." The radar operator also said with a frustrated face.

"I don't know why, I don't know what I'm fighting for anymore." Malu whispered to himself in a low voice, somewhat decadently.

"To end this situation, have you ever thought about what we must fight against, Captain Maru?". At this time, Kira, who was listening to Malu and the others discussing the Archangel's next plan, suddenly said, "We... I think we must fight that one."

"Kira, are you going to be a demon king or a hero?" Hearing Kira's words, Ito Cheng suddenly said.

"Huh?" Everyone, including Kira, looked at Ito Cheng in confusion.

"End the war by oneself, haha..." Ito Cheng sneered twice and did not continue, but the general meaning was almost expressed.

Afterwards, everyone ended the discussion in a dull atmosphere, leaving a few bridge personnel on duty and returned to their rooms to rest.

"Actually, there is a place we might be able to go to." In the captain's lounge, Mu, holding coffee in his hand, looked at Malu and Ito and said.

"Are you talking about Obu?" Ito Cheng asked with a glass of boiled water in his hand.

"Yes." Mu confirmed.

"Orb?" Malu repeated in a low voice.

"You definitely don't want to return to the army at all." Mu looked at Ma Liu who was sitting behind the desk with a lifeless face and said, "The same goes for everyone."

"You will definitely be shot if you go back." Ma Liu sighed and told the main reason why everyone was unwilling to go back. After all, no one wanted to die.

"Kid, you've changed." After hearing Ma Liu's answer, Mu immediately changed the subject.

"Yes." Malu responded.

"Do we have to fight something?" Mu whispered to himself.

"You guys." Looking at the two people who were deep in thought, Ito Cheng shook his head helplessly and sighed.

Finally, after many considerations, Malu agreed to Mu's proposal and went to Orb. In this way, after seven days of water navigation, the scarred Archangel finally entered the Orb waters on May 15th, and then sailed into the secret port of Yulu Island again under the guidance of the plane sent by Orb.

Not long after they stopped, the real leader of the Orb Alliance, Uzmi Yula Asghar, led the head of the Dawn Society, Erica Simons, and other officials including Diplomacy, Zhengfu, and Kisaka. Several people, including this military personnel, boarded the Archangel, came to the bridge, and met Captain Malu.

"We are grateful that you can accept our unauthorized request." Malu, standing in front of Uzmi, said with a sincere salute.

"Due to various reasons, all members are not able to move freely for the time being. I hope you can understand." Uzumi said apologetically, "But you can take a good rest first."

"Thank you very much." Ma Liu thanked him with a slight sigh of relief.

"Because of the destruction of the United Earth Headquarters, the Earth will once again fall into turmoil. Let's talk about this after you have a rest." Uzumi said while looking at everyone. But when his eyes fell on Ito Cheng, he paused unconsciously. This peculiar reaction was immediately noticed and remembered by Malu, who had been observing him.

"Hear what you hear, what you see, and then think about it carefully, including the meaning of the military uniforms you are wearing." But there was a pause, and then he turned his eyes to Ma Liu again and said solemnly. After saying that, he led the people behind him out of the bridge and left the Archangel.

"Can we talk? Captain Ito Shige." Just when Uzumi and others had just walked out of the Archangel, Erica, the head of the Dawn Club who was following behind him, suddenly turned around and said goodbye to Maru and Mu. Ito Cheng said.

After hearing Erica's words, Malu immediately turned to look at Ito Cheng beside him, concern flashing in his eyes.

"Of course." Ito Cheng first turned his head to reassure Maru with his eyes, and then said to Erica who looked at him. Then he followed Erica and left the Archangel together. They walked to a place in the port where the Archangel could be seen but no one disturbed them and stopped.

"Right here." After stopping, Erica said softly. Then he turned to look at Ito Cheng, looked at him with a half-smiling expression and said, "Captain Ito Cheng, I didn't expect you to dare to enter the Orb territory."

"Why don't you dare?" Ito Cheng asked in surprise.
