Chapter Summaries

Xiao Ran, Kira, and Athrun overwhelmed the Gamillas Fleet, forcing its commander to retreat and abandon much of his force. Xiao Ran ordered his side to spare the defeated soldiers and recover survivors, while Juzo Okita agreed that the Yamato would help.

• Xiao Ran spotted Gundam Pirates X2 with the Gamillas forces, and Kim Kido and Tobia identified its pilot as an old friend who had become their enemy.
• Xiao Ran, Kira, and Athrun tore through the Gamillas formation as the Burning Legion inflicted heavy losses without losing a machine.
• The frightened Gamillas commander ordered a retreat, and the fleet fled using Space Jump while Gundam Pirates X2 escaped with it.
• Xiao Ran ordered his forces to disable the remaining enemy machines, spare their pilots, and rescue survivors after the battle.
• Juzo Okita agreed that the Yamato would assist, but Shima protested that the Gamillas had destroyed Earth.

After the battle, the allied forces rescued survivors from the disabled Gamillas ships while the leaders discussed their unexpected arrival in the Cosmic Era World and the group's condition. They agreed to research world-jumping through the Boson Jump, provide time for repairs and rest, and use distinct names for the three worlds.

• Kodai Susumu urged Shima to leave judgment of Gamillas to others, and Shima accepted his reassurance that Earth would be restored.
• The scattered fighting ended, and Xiao Ran's forces disabled the remaining Gamillas ships while avoiding unnecessary casualties.
• Mwu relayed Xiao Ran's call for the abandoned soldiers to surrender, and rescue teams began aiding survivors from both sides.
• Juzo Okita, Ruri Hoshino, Tessa, Miss Huang, and Xiao Ran met aboard the Burning Legion to discuss their arrival and next steps.
• Ruri Hoshino said the Boson Jump might eventually enable travel between worlds, while warning that the ships and pilots needed repairs and the group needed relief from stress.
• Miss Huang explained that the three worlds had been named the New Chronology World, the Common Era World, and the Cosmic Era World.

Xiao Ran and the others discussed the threats facing the Universal Century World and learned that it faced dangers beyond New Zeon. Tessa agreed to gather Mithril’s information as the group prepared for the possibility of confronting several enemies.

• Xiao Ran, Juzo Okita, Miss Huang, and Tessa compared the dangers facing their three worlds and questioned what threat awaited them in the Universal Century World.
• Tessa explained that Ryoma Nagare came from the Universal Century World and had crossed into the New Chronology World during the Invader War and Second Impact.
• Tessa described the Angels’ worldwide disaster, which turned the seas red and left Earth vulnerable to another attack.
• Xiao Ran listed the Angels, New Zeon, Gamillas, Parasitic Beast monsters, and Doctor Hell’s forces as possible enemies, and Tessa confirmed that Kouji Kabuto piloted Great Mazinger in her world.
• Xiao Ran asked Tessa to distribute information about potential enemies, and she promised to send Mithril’s records to every ship.
• Juzo Okita asked Tessa whether she knew why Gundams in the Universal Century World resembled machines from his world’s history.

Juzo Okita and the others discussed the unexplained links among their worlds and the sudden rise of military technology, while Tessa agreed to investigate when the breakthroughs began. The group considered its next destination, and Xiao Ran proposed splitting up to approach Londo Bell and Mithril separately.

• Juzo Okita pointed out that the Gundams used technology far beyond what the New Era Calendar World had during the One Year War, despite the worlds sharing earlier history.
• Tessa, Xiao Ran, Mwu, and Miss Huang considered whether the worlds were connected and whether technology had passed between them; Xiao Ran asked Tessa to investigate the timing of the technological breakthroughs.
• Tessa outlined two options: rendezvous with Londo Bell to return the Gundam Squad and resupply, or go to Earth and Mithril headquarters.
• Mwu noted that Mithril could not take in the Gamillas prisoners, while Londo Bell had the resources and facilities to do so.
• Xiao Ran said Londo Bell could become an ally and proposed sending one group to Londo Bell while another went to Earth and the Mithril base.

Xiao Ran divided the fleet’s forces, sending the Burning Legion to rendezvous with Londo Bell while Danner's Son led the other ships toward Mithril’s base on Earth. After arranging the transfers and rescue work, Xiao Ran gathered trusted companions to examine a stone tablet and entrusted it to Renard.

• Xiao Ran assigned the Burning Legion to travel independently to Londo Bell and sent Danner's Son, the Nadeshiko, Yamato, and Ptolemaios toward Earth.
• Ruri Hoshino requested more combat strength for the Earth-bound team, so Xiao Ran sent Kira, Athrun, Shinn, and Lunamaria with them and transferred the Yajenar First Squadron to the Burning Legion.
• Danner's Son sent Richard to accompany the Burning Legion as Mithril’s representative, while both teams prepared to handle Gamillas prisoners and rescue survivors from the battlefield.
• Xiao Ran sent the pilots to their assigned ships and waited for the space-battlefield cleanup to continue.
• Xiao Ran, Graham, Luo, Basak, Zechs, Nalo, El-Elf, Renard, and Saki examined a stone tablet identical to one they had obtained before.
• Xiao Ran told Saki the tablet might still be useful outside Prometheus and entrusted it to Renard.

Xiao Ran tasked Renard with using the Original Constitution to take control of Amalgam and advance the Burning Legion’s plans. Renard departed with El-Elf and Basak, while the search for clues about the Overlord Legion and another hidden legion remained unresolved.

• Xiao Ran explained that the Original Constitution was powerless to Prometheus but could help Renard gain influence and benefits in this world.
• Xiao Ran instructed Renard to take over Amalgam and secretly infiltrate the Hostile Faction, even posing as an enemy of Xiao Ran and Mithril.
• Renard asked to bring El-Elf and Basak, and Xiao Ran agreed to provide Communication Drones as relay points.
• Xiao Ran ordered Basak to protect Renard and follow his arrangements as they took over Amalgam.
• El-Elf reported that his team had gathered intelligence about the world’s many problems but had found no clues about the Overlord Legion or the other legion.

Xiao Ran and his allies discussed where the Overlord Legion and Hostile Legion might be hiding across the three worlds connected by the mission. They suspected the Overlord Legion might be in the Universal Century or at Iskandar, but had no confirmation as they continued investigating.

• El-Elf said the team lacked time and information to determine whether the other legions were on Earth, though they had found no traces of them in the Western Calendar World.
• Xiao Ran argued that the mission appeared to connect only three worlds and that both legions must be somewhere within them.
• Xiao Ran guessed the justice-aligned Overlord Legion might be in a faction in the Universal Century, while the Hostile Legion could have joined one of several enemy factions.
• Renard said the team could act without mission restrictions, but Xiao Ran urged him to wait until they knew the Overlord Legion’s mission.
• El-Elf pointed out that the team had not contacted Iskandar, prompting Xiao Ran to suggest the Overlord Legion might be protecting something there that could save the world.

Xiao Ran and Richard discussed Danner's Son's inability to handle future space journeys and agreed to explore upgrades with Mithril technology. The Burning Legion received a civilian distress signal as it headed for Londo Bell Headquarters.

• Renard, Basak, and El-Elf prepared to leave, while four allied warships destroyed the remaining Gamillas vessels and departed for Earth.
• Xiao Ran invited Richard onto the Burning Legion's bridge, where Richard recognized the ship as a flagship and command center built for cosmic-scale combat.
• Richard asked Xiao Ran how Danner's Son could be prepared for the group's future journeys, including the Yamato's 300,000-light-year voyage.
• Xiao Ran agreed to have someone assess ways to upgrade Danner's Son with Mithril technology.
• The Burning Legion received a distress signal from nearby civilians.

After receiving a distress signal from Industrial Seven, Xiao Ran and Mwu ordered a rescue while secretly sending pilots toward Earth. Xiao Ran recognized the attack as connected to the Unicorn Gundam and considered capturing one to study its technology.

• Richard reported that Industrial Seven had been damaged in the ongoing battle between the Federation and New Zeon.
• Mwu ordered the Burning Legion to Industrial Seven for rescue operations, while she and Xiao Ran suspected the Bist Family was in danger.
• The Burning Legion and its drones accelerated toward Industrial Seven as three fighter jets and one MS secretly headed for Earth.
• Xiao Ran concluded that the attack was likely tied to the Original Constitution Renard had taken and the Unicorn Gundam.
• Xiao Ran considered capturing a Unicorn Gundam and studying its NT-D system to improve the Burning Legion's technology and help Dawn activate Orgone burst mode.

Xiao Ran’s forces responded to New Zeon’s takeover of the Nir-Akama and a nearby civilian transport ship while Industrial Seven suffered damage. After Xiao Ran declared the Burning Legion a band of messengers of justice, New Zeon withdrew, leaving the Nir-Akama safe.

• Mwu ordered the Drone Unit, Landing Force, and logistics units to rescue civilians at Industrial Seven and told the MS to await orders.
• Xiao Ran told the CIC officer to demand that New Zeon release the Londo Bell warship and withdraw, promising not to attack them.
• Sperrow Shiniman and his troops received the message aboard the captured Nir-Akama and saw Gundams launching from the Burning Legion.
• Shiniman rejected a subordinate’s proposal to destroy the ship, ordered his forces to withdraw, and prepared to rely on their own strength if attacked.
• Mwu watched New Zeon depart without pursuing them, and the Burning Legion confirmed that the Nir-Akama was safe.

Mwu confirmed that Nir-Akama and Industrial Seven were safe, and Richard returned the Gundam Squad to Londo Bell while arranging help for the damaged colony and protection for the alien prisoners. Captain Otto was astonished to learn Amuro Ray had returned, but a large New Zeon force led by a red mobile suit arrived before they could celebrate, forcing Mwu to prepare Burning Legion for battle.

• Mwu learned that Nir-Akama was safe and Industrial Seven was receiving emergency repairs, then asked Richard to verify Nir-Akama’s status and arrange the Gundam Squad’s return to Londo Bell.
• Richard spoke with Captain Otto, confirmed New Zeon had retreated, and asked Londo Bell to guard the alien prisoners aboard the two battleships while Burning Legion continued to Industrial Seven.
• Gido, Hathaway, and Amuro greeted Otto, who recognized Amuro and celebrated the return of the White Meteor.
• An alarm announced that a large New Zeon force, including Gamillas warships and a red mobile suit moving at three times normal speed, was approaching.
• Mwu ordered Graham, Nalu, and Saki to launch, prepared Burning Legion’s weapons and shields, directed the Gamillas ships to shelter behind it, and told Nir-Akama to withdraw.

Captain Otto joined the battle against New Zeon and Gamillas, while Xiao Ran went out in the Darkness Sky to confront Full Frontal. The two leaders exchanged challenges, and Full Frontal charged at Xiao Ran.

• Captain Otto refused to withdraw and prepared the Nir-Akama for battle, then agreed to follow Mwu Lamias's command.
• Xiao Ran chose not to recall the deployed drones and decided to face the resurrected Red Comet himself.
• Xiao Ran recognized Full Frontal as Char's clone, carrying a fragment of Char's negative spirit, and considered whether they might cooperate.
• Xiao Ran flew the Darkness Sky ahead of his forces and observed the separate New Zeon and Gamillas fleets.
• Full Frontal challenged Xiao Ran over an open channel, and Xiao Ran taunted him into testing their strength.
• Full Frontal charged directly at the Darkness Sky.

Xiao Ran and Full Frontal engaged in a high-speed duel between Darkness Sky and Sinanju while their forces clashed nearby. Full Frontal was astonished by how precisely Xiao Ran anticipated his techniques, unaware of their history with Char.

• Sinanju charged at Darkness Sky as the New Zeon forces held back and Gamillas sent MS units and Space Fighters to attack.
• The Gundam Squad intercepted the Gamillas forces while Amuro watched Sinanju and wondered whether Char had returned.
• Xiao Ran met Full Frontal's attacks, and Darkness Sky and Sinanju fought at close range in a dangerous, tightly matched duel.
• Full Frontal realized Xiao Ran seemed to know his style and tactics intimately, leaving him puzzled by his opponent.

Xiao Ran outmatched Full Frontal in their duel and urged him to withdraw, warning him against relying on Gamillas. Full Frontal retreated but then ordered his forces to attack, just as Mwu's Tactical Armor enclosed Darkness Sky and released GN Particles.

• Xiao Ran boosted Darkness Sky's speed and rammed Sinanju, then told Full Frontal that he was not Char and could not threaten him.
• Xiao Ran warned Full Frontal that Gamillas would bring destruction and urged him to take his forces and leave.
• Full Frontal questioned Xiao Ran about Char and the Box of Laplace, then withdrew toward his forces.
• Xiao Ran asked Mwu to launch Tactical Armor and predicted that Full Frontal would make one final attempt.
• Full Frontal ordered his army to attack, while Tactical Armor enclosed Darkness Sky and unleashed GN Particles.

Xiao Ran synchronized Darkness Sky’s Solar Furnaces with the Tactical Armor and unleashed a devastating barrage that halted both New Zeon and Gamillas. Full Frontal withdrew, while Xiao Ran returned to the Burning Legion and left him wondering why the Black Mecha’s pilot had spared them.

• Xiao Ran pushed Darkness Sky and the Tactical Armor to their limits by synchronizing their Solar Furnaces, but the strain left him physically and mentally exhausted.
• Xiao Ran fired beams and missiles from Darkness Sky and its GN Dragoons, destroying or disabling countless machines from New Zeon and Gamillas.
• Xiao Ran ignored the retreating New Zeon forces and headed back toward the Burning Legion.
• Full Frontal recognized that his forces could not win and ordered a retreat, promising to grow stronger before their next encounter.
• Full Frontal wondered who piloted the Black Mecha and why the pilot had deliberately spared them.

After Xiao Ran overwhelmed New Zeon, he returned to the Burning Legion and collapsed from exhaustion, while Renard’s group intercepted Full Frontal’s retreating forces. Renard then led Basak and El-Elf to Earth, planning to seize control of Amalgam and investigate his history in this world.

• Xiao Ran returned to the Burning Legion, left the remaining work to Mwu, and fell into a deep sleep to recover.
• Renard, Basak, and El-Elf changed course and blocked New Zeon’s retreat with four machines.
• El-Elf told Basak that Renard intended to test Full Frontal before pursuing an alliance, and explained that Full Frontal was Char’s clone and a vessel for Char’s negative psyche.
• Renard contacted Full Frontal, exchanged taunts with him, and then cut off the call before flying toward Earth with Basak and El-Elf.
• Renard told Basak and El-Elf that Full Frontal seemed to know him and Amalgam, then announced his plan to seize Amalgam’s headquarters and eliminate anyone who opposed him.

After the New Zeon and Gamillas United Forces departed, Xiao Ran’s forces rescued Industrial Seven while he recovered from severe exhaustion. He considered the unexplained strain of traveling between worlds and prepared to strengthen his allies before the Overlord Legion and Hostile Legion appeared.

• The Burning Legion and Landing Force repaired Industrial Seven’s breach, restored vital facilities, and organized rescue work with help from residents and Anaheim Company staff.
• Mwu and Sheryl visited Xiao Ran after he woke, and Sheryl asked why he had been so exhausted after the battles.
• Xiao Ran and Mwu speculated that crossing between worlds had caused his exhaustion because the time spent in one world did not match the time reported by Gamillas prisoners.
• Sheryl warned Xiao Ran that the mission seemed increasingly dangerous, and Xiao Ran agreed to remain alert as the Overlord Legion and Hostile Legion had yet to appear.
• Xiao Ran reasoned that the Hostile Legion might be secretly strengthening an established faction, so he planned to build up his own allies before the three legions inevitably clashed.

Xiao Ran and Mwu discussed the aftermath at Industrial Seven and the fate of the Bist Family while Londo Bell prepared to provide aid. Bright Noa arrived aboard the La Rams, and Xiao Ran met the commander who had died in his own world.

• Xiao Ran and Mwu agreed that Industrial Seven would need ongoing help from other forces after the breach was sealed.
• Mwu reported that the Bist estate had burned down and Cardias and his father had died, and she told Xiao Ran that Cardias’s son was called Link in this world.
• Bright Noa arrived near Industrial Seven with a Federation fleet, bringing aid and taking custody of two Gamillas warships.
• Mwu formally handed the two Gamillas warships over to Captain Otto for Londo Bell to detain.
• Bright boarded the Burning Legion and thanked Xiao Ran for helping the Nir-Akama and Gundam Squad, and Xiao Ran welcomed him.

Bright Noa welcomed Xiao Ran and offered Londo Bell’s support after learning about the three worlds and their shared threats. Xiao Ran agreed to make Londo Bell an ally but declared that he would not assist the Federation, leaving Bright relieved.

• Bright Noa greeted Xiao Ran warmly, agreed to guard the alien prisoners, and provided supplies as a gesture of goodwill.
• Xiao Ran showed Bright and Captain Otto around the Burning Legion before they sat down to discuss the three worlds and Londo Bell’s situation.
• Bright offered Londo Bell’s help, saying he believed the three worlds had been brought together to face their threats.
• Xiao Ran accepted Londo Bell as a companion and promised mutual aid if either side encountered difficulties.
• Xiao Ran declared that he would support Londo Bell but would not work for the Federation, and Bright accepted his stance with relief.

Bright accepted the Federation’s order for Londo Bell to descend to Earth and attack New Zeon, while Xiao Ran agreed to support the operation on his own terms. After Bright left, Xiao Ran considered the Federation and said they should wait to see what happened with Renard while influencing Bright’s thinking.

• Bright received the Federation’s order to take Ra Cailum and Nir-Akama to Earth to strike New Zeon, and he informed Xiao Ran that Londo Bell would comply.
• Xiao Ran offered the Burning Legion’s support, but made clear that his forces would choose which battles to join.
• Bright said Londo Bell sought to end the war and protect civilians, and Xiao Ran asked what Bright thought of the Federation.
• After Bright departed, Mwu asked whether Xiao Ran planned to move against the Federation, and Xiao Ran said they should first see what happened with Renard and plant an idea in Bright’s mind.
• Xiao Ran revealed that Bright’s wife was Mile, then asked Mwu to notify Yamato and the others to rendezvous after they had rested and resupplied.
