Xiao Ran forced Iksai to return two warships carrying Module 77 civilians and withdraw Dolcia forces, then learned that Mwu's team had secured the academy as an encircling fleet approached. He left the port to escort the retreating forces and prepared to keep watch on the incoming fleet.

• Xiao Ran threatened Iksai with nuclear retaliation until the Dolcia agent agreed to return the civilians on two ships and withdraw his troops from Module 77.
• Xiao Ran ordered the black-and-red Valvrave Unit 1 to stand aside so it would not jeopardize the civilians' return.

• Xiao Ran explained that Sheryl's early entry into the mission world was too risky to exploit, but her fame had won Saki Maski's support.
• Sheryl and Mwu began teaching Saki Maski to operate the ship's Intelligence Control systems, and Mwu learned she was a designated pilot for a mecha inside the module.

• Billy's fighter and Moses's two fighters arrived and entered the warship under Saki Maski's guidance.

El-Elf and Xiao Ran planned to move Module 77 toward the Moon’s neutral zone, but the ARUS and Dolcia fleets began advancing in an unexpected way. As the Galaxy Diva prepared for battle, El-Elf concluded that the two factions had secretly cooperated and was about to explain his reasoning.

• El-Elf learned to operate the Galaxy Diva’s Weapon Control system, then helped Xiao Ran plan to move Module 77 into lunar orbit while drawing the ARUS fleet into the fight.
• Saki Maski reported that ARUS had deployed fighters and the Dolcia Military State’s warships were approaching, so Xiao Ran ordered the ship to prepare for battle.
• El-Elf revised the plan into a frontal assault, ordered drones to approach ARUS without attacking, and set a three-minute limit for moving the module into orbit.
• El-Elf discovered the Galaxy Diva had powerful weapons and a FOLD Jump System, while Nalu, Moses, and Billy prepared to sortie.
• After ARUS showed no reaction to the approaching drones, El-Elf concluded that ARUS and the Dolcia Military State had reached an agreement; Xiao Ran asked how he had figured it out.

El-Elf deduced that ARUS had secretly agreed to cooperate with the Dolcia Military State to seize the Galaxy Diva’s technology and weapons. Xiao Ran approved El-Elf’s plan to use missiles and Justice Gundam to cover their retreat, and the operation began.

• El-Elf explained that ARUS’s lack of response to the drones suggested it had made a secret deal with the Dolcia Military State, prompted by Xiao Ran and the advanced weapons he had revealed.
• Xiao Ran realized that a joint attack could endanger the Galaxy Diva, Ship One, Ship Two, and Module 77, and resolved to teach both fleets a lesson.
• El-Elf proposed using the Galaxy Diva’s missiles to create a wall of explosions that would blind the Dolcia fleet while Xiao Ran fired toward the ARUS ships.
• Xiao Ran ordered Ship One and Ship Two to retreat and Unit 1 to launch, while Saki Maski activated the Tactical Armor for Justice Gundam.

Xiao Ran and Nalo attacked the Dolcia fleet while the Valvraves dismantled Module 77’s connecting passages, causing Dolcia to mistake the assault for an ARUS attack and destroy the ARUS flagship. Xiao Ran pressed forward as the second passage neared destruction and the team prepared to retreat.

• Xiao Ran used Justice Gundam Tactical Armor to blast through Valvrave defenses and strike Dolcia’s fleet, while Nalo’s MK-II Gundam destroyed a warship with its GN Rocket Cannon.
• Haruto’s Unit 1 severed Module 77’s first connecting passage, and Nalo broke the passage apart with her Beam Sniper Rifle before Haruto moved toward the second.
• Dolcia returned fire against ARUS, and Figaro’s attempt to clarify that ARUS had not launched the attack came too late to save the flagship from a fortress-breaching shell.
• Colonel Kane ordered Dolcia’s forces to stop attacking their ARUS allies and target the remaining Jior forces, while wondering where the unfamiliar warship and Black Mecha had come from.
• Xiao Ran fought through the Valvraves as his team reported that the second passage would soon be severed and the two warships had connected to Module 77.

Xiao Ran used Justice Gundam's Tactical Armor to devastate the Dolcia Military State fleet while Module 77 began its escape. He reached the enemy warship formation with TRANS-AM activated and prepared to unleash the machine's full arsenal.

• Xiao Ran launched Justice Gundam's Tactical Armor into the Dolcia Military State's Valvrave and IDEAL-class formations, cutting through them with beams and Beam Sabers.
• Xiao Ran's interference sent more than a thousand radar-guided missiles spiraling out of control and exploding among the Dolcia forces.
• The connecting passage was severed, and Module 77 began moving away from the Dyson Sphere.
• Xiao Ran activated TRANS-AM and charged at the Dolcia Military State warships, struggling to control the shaking machine.
• Justice Gundam's Tactical Armor rose above the warship formation and deployed its weapons to attack.

He ordered a public performance and speech, preparations to refit two warships into the module’s defenses, and recruitment for a military force.

• Shoko Minamikaze proposed threatening the Dolcia Military State and ARUS with the secret they both wanted in order to protect the students’ families.
• El-Elf and the others judged Shoko Minamikaze’s plan feasible as a way to buy time, and Xiao Ran agreed while warning it could not secure New Jior’s future by itself.
• Xiao Ran said New Jior needed a reliable ally among the Neutral Countries of the Third World and its own army, then ordered Nanami Rion and Renbo Koji Satomi to arrange a cheerful public performance and share Shoko Minamikaze’s proposal with both powers.
• Xiao Ran ordered Captains Anzai and Aida to bind their warships to the module as propulsion and artillery systems, with El-Elf in charge of its defenses.
