OO Pioneer-8

"Although humanity's safety rests on Setsuna's shoulders, you shouldn't put too much pressure on him. Sometimes, it can have the opposite effect."

As the atmosphere grew more tense, Mileina stepped in to ease the situation, carrying Setsuna.

She gently comforted Setsuna, saying, "Don't be too nervous, Setsuna. Everything will go smoothly."

"Yeah, we'll do our best to support you, right Marie?"

After speaking to Setsuna, Alleluia eagerly locked eyes with Marie in his arms, like a dog showing affection.

Setsuna, who had just had his fill of 'dog food,' smiled helplessly and looked around at everyone.

Thinking of his Marina, he said with a resolute expression, "Don't worry, I believe in the future Thor spoke of, so I will definitely complete the dialogue."

After the meeting ended.

Ian, who was in the hangar, was racking his brain on how to modify and develop new Gundams.

After completing the inspection and modification of several Gundams, and adding the Trans-Am System, which allowed for intermittent activation multiple times in a short period without needing to vent GN particles from the GN Drive, he had just sat down, intending to steal a moment of leisure to drink some tea.

He was caught red-handed by Mileina.

"Dad, no slacking!"

"Mileina, Dad isn't slacking. Mom can testify, I just finished my work and sat down to rest for a bit."

The troubled Ian immediately signaled to Linda beside him, and Linda began to intercede for him.

"Yes, Mileina. Dad has been working very hard.

But research and development aren't things that can be completed overnight. Sometimes, if there's no inspiration, it can take a long time."

"Yeah, yeah, you're absolutely right."

"Okay, but Dad, you really mustn't slack off. Otherwise, I'll find Thor and ask him to be my boyfriend!"

"Oh wow, Mileina has found someone she likes? Thor is quite handsome, Mom supports you."

"Hmph~, you, you guys."

Hearing the conversation between Mileina and Linda, Ian felt like his little cotton jacket wasn't just leaking wind, but was also being snatched away.

Unfortunately, Thor wasn't here, so he couldn't beat him up to vent his anger.

So, with his anger boiling, Ian could only whine pitifully at his daughter.

"My dearest Mileina, you absolutely cannot find that fickle playboy as your boyfriend, or Dad will be sad."

"That depends on your performance, Dad. Go, work hard."

Meanwhile.

After all the combat forces of the New World Federal Government had assembled, they, along with the Ptolemaios 2 Kai, used the Trans-Am System's triple red acceleration to rush to the area outside Mars orbit.

While allowing the GN-T type solar furnace to cool down and recover, they lay in wait for the ELS vanguard army and Thor's return.

After a day of waiting, the ELS vanguard army finally arrived.

"Beam weapons ready, target the ELS swarm ahead, all forces attack!"

The space warships and mobile suit units, deployed in a square formation, unleashed a dense barrage of GN particle cannon beam attacks, like a rain of pear blossoms, upon receiving Kati's order.

Even the two Death Star Cannon turrets mounted on [Tenshi-go]'s orbital ring fired two massive beams, piercing straight into the enemy ranks.

Taking the initiative, they eliminated a large number of small ELS floating units.

However, for the vast ELS swarm, this was merely a drop in the bucket.

Furthermore, the moment the mother-child body was hit by the Death Star Cannon's beam attack, it deployed a beam refraction barrier in the attacked area.

It unharmed blocked the two beam attacks from [Tenshi-go].

"Commander, long-range beams are ineffective against the large mother-child bodies!"

"It seems it's not as easy as we thought!

Second attack preparation for all forces, GN Missiles ready, set explosion timers, detonate immediately upon contact, all forces attack!"

Thus, in the second wave of attacks, Kati also authorized the launch of GN Missiles.

Millions of beams, along with tens of millions of GN Missiles, surged forward.

They once again hit numerous small ELS floating units and battleship-class individuals.

However, the ELS army was not to be outdone. Many GN Missiles were assimilated and eroded from the sides before they could detonate.

They then mimicked the shape of GN Missiles and accelerated towards the New World Federal Government's fleet.

After two rounds of attacks, facing the sudden acceleration of the ELS swarm, Kati had no choice but to deploy the [Gundam Harute Custom] to the front lines to intercept these high-speed mimicking GN Missiles.

Celestial Being's side.

To open a breakthrough towards the ELS Mother-Child Body.

Alleluia, along with Marie, cooperated with some quasi-Innovators piloting high-speed mobile suits. They used their Brainwaves to attract a group of small ELS floaters, scattering them towards different areas of the battlefield.

Especially the [Gundam Garubraja Final Battle Specification], while luring away a batch of small ELS floaters, continuously unleashed GN Missiles from its drop pods and tail wings.

This blew many small ELS floaters to pieces, temporarily incapacitating them. They could only become liquid-like, relying on nearby fragments to slowly reform.

This slowed down their attack rhythm.

While clearing a path forward for Setsuna's dialogue, it also reduced the combat pressure on the New World Federal Government forces at the front lines.

Meanwhile, brothers Lowe Guele and Lyle Dylandy fought in coordination with each other.

Lyle Dylandy used the overwhelming firepower of the [Gundam Harute Final Battle Specification]. After intermittently activating the Trans-Am System's three-red burst for short periods, he directly carpet-bombed the entire battlefield.

He delivered a heavy blow to the ELS swarm.

This forced many heavily damaged battleship-class ELS individuals to break apart into numerous small ELS floaters.

However, at the same time, he became a primary target, and a swarm of small ELS floaters pursued him.

At this moment, Lowe Guele used his GN Rocket Launcher and the two GN Mega Cannons on his shoulders to intercept the pursuing swarm of small ELS floaters after his brother's burst ended.
