The Collection of The End

——2015.6.26——

The high seas of the Pacific Ocean.

"Asuka, as soon as I heard that Unit 2 started to move on its own, I knew that you had activated EVA without permission again. You...huh? Shinji-kun is here too?]" Misato Katsuragi didn't say a word after her communication was connected to Unit 2. He saw Shinji Ikari sitting behind Asuka's driver's seat.

"Hmph, this idiot was just peeking under Unit 2's skirt. I originally planned to teach him a lesson, but the apostle suddenly appeared, so I had to be merciful and let him insert the plug to hide," Asuka raised her chin and said, "But Don’t worry, even if he interferes, I still have a synchronization rate of 41.5%, so I have no problem catching a big fish.”

"Well, I believe in your strength... Shinji-kun, are you okay?]" Misato Katsuragi looked at Shinji Ikari behind her.

"Um...the pilot uniform for Unit 2 doesn't fit very well," Shinji Ikari was wearing the same bright red combat uniform as Asuka at this time: "The chest is too tight, the waist is too loose, and..."

"Are you an idiot! If you're a boy, just bear with me!" Asuka interrupted loudly, furious.

It was literally fried hair. After inserting the plug and filling it with water, her shawl hair spread out like a lion's mane.

Sure enough, short hair like Rei Ayanami's is a suitable hairstyle for driving an EVA.

I don’t know what she would look like if she had long hair.

"Don't worry about that. I have information about the Sixth Apostle. I will send it to you first, and then share its current location. We still don't know why it attacked here instead of the Third New Tokyo City. Please be careful. .】"

"Needless to say? Of course it's because I'm afraid that a genius driver like me will join you and want to intercept him halfway. This will be the worst decision he has ever made in his life, hehehehe."

After being pricked twice by Asuka's hair, which was shaking her head, Shinji Ikari sighed - although he couldn't sigh in the water - while braiding her hair and then twisting it up.

"Don't touch girls' hair! Are you an idiot?" Asuka tilted her head slightly and cursed: "The situation is urgent now. I usually wear a hairband."

"Well, what is the strength of your AT field?" Shinji Ikari asked.

"4000? Isn't this common sense?" Asuka glanced at him: "I heard that although some qualified people can activate EVA, their AT field only has 2000, and they were wiped out in the end. Isn't that the same for you? Relationship household?"

Anyway, it is higher than my own 100 points.

"Then let's ask the genius pilot to repel the apostles this time." Shinji Ikari hid behind her seat again.

"Hmph, who do you think I am?" Asuka said loudly while browsing the information sent by Misato Katsuragi: "Asuka, attack!"

Unit No. 2 pulled out the utility knife from his shoulder - the one with the wave thing or something, and then just assumed the posture of a samurai preparing for Iai.

Great, I can paddle this time.

Shinji Ikari high-fived Kuriko with a small movement.

Curry Curry]

The next moment, the "Duel Disk" quietly appeared.

Hmm... Anyway, let's draw the card first, maybe she doesn't need help?

Rock Giant Soldier: Attack: 1300, Defense: 2000]

This cannot be seen by Clayman.

——

"Hang——]"

"Die!... Damn it! You're hiding again!"

The huge fish-shaped apostle passed over the battleship and fell into the sea from the other side. The No. 2 machine that jumped high swung its sword in the air and fell back to the aircraft carrier deck, causing it to sink a bit.

The battle has been going on for three minutes, but it can be said that there is no result. The fish-shaped Sixth Apostle did not confront the No. 2 Unit head-on. He only tried to destroy the ship. When the No. 2 Unit chased him, he dived into the seabed and hid.

It is obviously very clear that as long as there is no foothold, this red robot is no longer a threat.

"Calm down, Asuka, Unit 2 does not carry diving equipment. It will only have a chance to attack when the apostle launches an attack and surfaces.]" Misato Katsuragi said in the communication.

"I'm trying to catch time! But its behavior pattern has no rules at all!" Asuka complained.

"We will continue to track and interfere, and you try to suppress it.]"

"Damn it..." Asuka's eyes swept across the rows of data, and suddenly turned to look at Shinji Ikari who was hiding behind the seat: "What are you laughing at?"

"I'm laughing that the apostles dare not confront Unit 2 head-on," Shinji Ikari blinked: "You may already know that I was beaten by the apostles in New Tokyo City 3, which was terrible."

"Hmph... That's because you are stupid," Asuka raised her chin and turned back: "With my help, no matter who the apostle is, they will be hung up and beaten."

Well, Asuka's attitude is ordinary. The attitude of the uninformed pilot towards the apostle is like a robot or monster movie.

Curry Curry] Li Ziqiu nodded repeatedly.

However, he accidentally laughed just now because the formula for victory has been completed. Shinji Ikari looked at the external scenery displayed on the inner wall of the insertion bolt.

It was a "clear blue" sea.

Sea: The attack and defense of water and fish monsters are increased by 200 points, and the attack and defense of fire and machine monsters are reduced by 200 points. 】

"Hang——】" The fish-shaped apostle jumped up provocatively.

Perhaps because there is a "god" in the deck, the card data of the Sixth Apostle becomes clearly visible:

Walled Whale, attack: 2350, defense: 2150. 】

When there is a 'sea' on the field, it cannot be selected as a target for attacks and effects. 】

Well, he's a noob.

"Asshole! Don't run!" Unit 2 chased the destroyer all the way, using the deck of the destroyer as a stepping stone, but only touched the water splashed when the opponent re-entered the water.

Forget it, what if she continues to play like this and the apostle succeeds?

"Asuka?" Shinji Ikari asked: "Who else is going to Nerv headquarters with Unit 2? Or, what?"

"And my guardian, Mr. Kaji Ryouji," Asuka glanced at Shinji Ikari: "He is ten thousand times more handsome than you."

Coincidentally, my appearance is minus 5.

"What - what -!]" Misato Katsuragi exploded first: "That bastard is on the boat?!]"

"Ex?" Shinji Ikari teased.

"It's the 'incumbent'," Misato Katsuragi's voice became sinister: "It's the 'incumbent' that Ritsuko Akagi and I share. We have agreed to 'share' him equally the next time we meet."

"Fuck, dirty lord." Asuka snorted.

Hmm...I guess that's not what she meant.

"Anyway, please ask the fleet commander to send someone to catch him and find out if he has anything strange with him - you don't have to open it, just find it." Shinji Ikari said.

"Why should I listen to you, kid?" The commander's old voice sounded.

"Because, if he takes away the things that attracted the apostles, your fleet will be completely wiped out," Shinji Ikari continued without waiting for the commander to retort, "Miss Misato can leave by plane, and Eva can wait at the bottom of the sea. Rescue.”

"...Hmph, even if he has wings, he can't fly away.]"

——

"After analysis, we have confirmed the apostle's action pattern," Misato Katsuragi's voice was a little excited: "It has been trying to lure you away from the flagship to launch a surprise attack on something brought by a certain bastard. We can use it to our advantage. ——】"

"Hey, related person, how did you come up with the idea?" Asuka listened to the plan and communicated with Shinji Ikari in a low voice: "I was a little surprised at first, how could the guardian be transferred with the driver's change of duty? It's not...his biological father. .”

"Because there is something similar in the Third New Tokyo City. Otherwise, why do you think the apostles keep attacking there?"

Anyone with a sane mind would be able to think of this kind of thing, so it would be better to tell her in advance to prevent her from causing trouble in the future.

"and you--"

"I am a related household."

"..." Asuka choked back before she could say anything, glaring at him fiercely.

However, there is no need to tell her the details.

Since the apostle's purpose is to contact "Eve" and trigger the third impact, then this attack will not be meaningless. In other words, if the apostle gets the thing carried by the fleet, it will also trigger the third impact. .

However, the doubt lies here. If the result of "obtaining that thing" and "contacting Eve" are the same, why did the third, fourth and fifth apostles choose to attack the third city of New Tokyo? Especially the fifth apostle, that's a "god". If it wants to attack somewhere, it can't be stopped without him. Why didn't it attack the original storage location of "that thing"?

Shinji Ikari's current speculation is that the thing that was sent was some key item when "Eve" transformed into "Adam", like... a Saiyan tail?

Because Eve had that thing cut off, the process of becoming Adam was terminated, and she was sealed by nerv.

Further reasoning, in the view of most apostles, contacting Eve to turn her into Adam and triggering the third impact is the normal route, but a few apostles may think of obtaining "that thing" and integrating it to become a new Adam themselves. Triggering a third impact is also an option.

Then, my father's judgment may be that since it may also attract apostles, it is better to put it together at the Nerv headquarters for protection, and may even directly hand it over to Ayanami Rei, an apostle who does not want to trigger a third impact, for fusion to avoid complications.

"——In short, this is the plan, do you understand?]" At this time, Katsuragi Misato quickly finished explaining the plan.

"Of course! I'm a genius!" Asuka pulled the handle, and Unit 2 jumped out.

The plan was simple. Pretend to be lured away by the illusion created by the Sixth Apostle, and then when it attacks the flagship, retract the cable connected to the aircraft body at high speed and pull Unit 2 back like a fisherman.

The so-called angler must first be caught as a fish.

But, the problem is... Shinji Ikari looked at the rapidly changing scenery outside. As long as the "sea" is still there, the Sixth Apostle is invincible. Later, it may avoid attacks in some incredible way.

Fortunately I'm here.

Shinji Ikari saw that Unit 2 had landed far away and the moment the Sixth Apostle surfaced, he took the card he had prepared in his hand.

Summon the giant soldiers of the rock].

Switch to defensive stance, then switch to attacking stance.

Activate the magic card Moon Blade].

Moon Cutter: When a rock-type monster switches from defense position to attack position, destroy a field card on the field. 】

The huge rock giant suddenly stood up, raised its huge stone blade towards the sky, and directly poked the moon in the sky.

The next moment, the "blue sea" quickly receded, revealing the original red color of the ocean.

Walled Whale】The additional attack and defense are restored to their original state.

"Bang!" The cable behind the No. 2 unit suddenly contracted, pulling the No. 2 unit that was grabbing it into the air as if fishing.

Liberate the giant soldiers of the rock] and summon the cursed dragon].

Cursed Dragon, attack: 2000, defense: 1500]

The rock giant disappeared, and what followed was a flaming dragon flying in the sky accompanying Unit 2, its entire body covered with a bone shell.

Activate the magic card "The Burning Earth"

Burning Earth: When there is a 'Cursed Dragon' on one's side, destroy all cards on the opponent's side. 】

Roar--! ! 】

The Cursed Dragon roared passionately and spouted raging flames at the walled whale that was not covered by the sea.

"Go to hell! You stinky fish!" The No. 2 aircraft turned around in the air and drew its sword, condescendingly poking at the Sixth Apostle who had just jumped onto the aircraft carrier and had nowhere to hide.

Whoosh, whoosh.

The illusion of the castle whale turned into golden light spots and disappeared, and the fish-shaped sixth apostle was stabbed to death on the deck of the aircraft carrier by Unit 2's wave... weapon that looked like a utility knife, which penetrated the AT force field.

"How about it? Did you see it? A relative? This is the strength of a genius pilot." Asuka turned to look at Shinji Ikari proudly.

"Did you win? Great, then I can change out of this combat uniform. It's really tight on the chest." Shinji Ikari grabbed the collar.

"Get out of my plug! You big idiot!"

——

"Hey, you are Shinji-kun, right? I have heard of your name even in Germany."

While the fleet staff were busy cleaning the battlefield, Shinji Ikari met Ryouji Kaji.

He was a handsome man with black hair and eyes, thick eyebrows and a square face, with medium-long hair combed into a short ponytail and a slight beard. He only wore a simple white shirt and black trousers, exuding a free and uninhibited temperament.

"Uh, hello." Shinji Ikari shook hands with Kaji Ryouji.

"——" At this moment, he felt Asuka's sharp eyes staring at their intertwined hands.

Are you angry that he didn't shake her hand and threw her over his shoulder?

After all, I only have 100 points of AT force field, and with the apostle's sneak attack at that time, I thought you were going to take action.

"I heard that Misato is your guardian?" Kaji Ryoji let go and said with a smile, "How is it? Is her sleep state still that bad?"

"Ah? Should I live with my guardian?" Shinji Ikari turned to look at Katsuragi Misato.

"Ah? Can I live with my guardian?" Asuka turned to look at Kaji Ryoji.

"Hmph..." Misato Katsuragi laughed and said, "Come on, can you just tell me one of my bad sleep patterns?"

"Oh? Is that okay to say?" Kaji Ryoji kept smiling.

"You can tell the truth!" Misato Katsuragi said angrily: "Ritsuko and I made an appointment to confess to you separately to see who you would accept, but in the end you accepted them all and fled to Germany!"

...You adults are really good at playing.
