Efficiency Boost and Suppression

The Oni Yasha's entire armor suddenly cracked in some places, and red, line-like gas emanated from the cracked areas.

"What's going on?" x3

Li Xiucheng and the Zhou Ya sisters watched the Oni Yasha's transformation. Although they didn't know what was happening, their years of combat experience gave them a bad feeling.

Zoshan Taro looked at the data on the left screen. The Oni Yasha's all-around performance was rapidly increasing, and the Oni Yasha's pattern displayed [Efficiency Boost].

The computer in the cockpit was also running calculations at high speed, with the power system, thrusters, and everything else operating rapidly.

"Let's see how strong this efficiency boost function really is."

The Oni Yasha instantly charged towards the Proto Gundam Thunderbolt.

"So fast."

The Oni Yasha instantly reached the front of the Proto Gundam Thunderbolt.

The Oni Yasha instantly drew its beam saber and swept it towards the Proto Gundam Thunderbolt's waist.

The Proto Gundam Thunderbolt gripped its beam saber to block.

"What!" Li Xiucheng exclaimed. An alarm sounded in the cockpit, and the data showed that the enemy MS's output far surpassed his, and the Gundam's arm output load was nearing its limit.

The Zhou Ya sisters immediately came to the rescue.

The Oni Yasha immediately kicked the Proto Gundam Thunderbolt away, then instantly dodged the shots from the two Gundams.

"Damn it, it's too fast, I can't aim at all."

"Damn it, what kind of MS is this, it's like it's cheating."

The Proto Gundam Thunderbolt, which had been kicked away, would have tumbled around the cockpit if Li Xiucheng hadn't fastened his seatbelt.

However, this also left him feeling chest pain.

Li Xiucheng endured the discomfort in his chest, immediately controlled his Gundam to stabilize, and then rushed to support his comrades.

The Oni Yasha charged in front of Proto Gundam Unit 4, and its beam saber slashed down from above. Proto Gundam Unit 4 blocked the beam saber with its beam sword.

"Damn it, I'm completely suppressed."

His sister immediately came to rescue her sister.

Proto Gundam Unit 5 swung its beam sword towards the other side of the Oni Yasha.

The Oni Yasha's other hand took out a beam saber and blocked the beam sword swung by Proto Gundam Unit 5.

"How is this possible!" x2

The two sisters exclaimed simultaneously.

The Oni Yasha held beam sabers in both hands, blocking the combined attacks of the two Gundams.

What shocked the two girls even more was that their two Gundams were being suppressed by the opponent.

The Oni Yasha suddenly sidestepped, and a beam ray slashed past where the Oni Yasha had just been.

Li Xiuming had arrived to provide support.

The Oni Yasha pushed its thrusters to the fullest, rapidly charging towards the Proto Gundam Thunderbolt, and instantly circled behind the Proto Gundam Thunderbolt.

"Die."

The Oni Yasha's two beam sabers slashed out in an X-shape.

Fortunately, the Proto Gundam Thunderbolt had a pair of shield attachments, which temporarily blocked the beam sabers, allowing Li Xiuming to escape immediately.

The pair of shields were sliced in half. Li Xiuming pressed the button and discarded the remaining half-shields.

The Zhou Ya sisters arrived just then.

"This speed and maneuverability are too fast."

"A mere Pirate Group actually has such advanced MS."

"Here it comes."

The three of them focused with all their might, not daring to make the slightest mistake.

The Oni Yasha charged towards the three Gundams like a red meteor, and could instantly change direction.

The three Gundams were so suppressed that they couldn't defend themselves from all sides.

Proto Gundam Unit 4's left leg was severed, Unit 5's right arm was cut off, and the Thunderbolt's mounted weapon pods were all destroyed.

Although the commander had gained the upper hand, which should have boosted the morale of the other pirates, it so happened that several other Gundams had already charged into their ranks and were wreaking havoc, causing many of them to not notice the commander's current situation.

Zoshan Taro, who had gained the upper hand, was extremely excited. Just as he was about to finish off a few Gundams, the alarm suddenly sounded. He saw a beam ray attacking him from above and immediately steered to avoid it.

He saw another Gundam charging towards him.

"Hey, hey, hey, isn't that kid being a bit too reckless?"

The GP01 Gundam Zephyranthes charged towards the Oni Yasha, holding a shield in one hand and a beam saber in the other.

The Oni Yasha, like before, charged towards the Gundam Zephyranthes like a red meteor. As it approached the opponent, it instantly circled behind the opponent and prepared for a killing blow.

Li Xiucheng and the others wanted to rescue, but the distance was too great, and the two MS were so close that the three of them didn't dare to fire.

They could only watch helplessly as their comrades were taken down by the enemy.

But what happened next nearly made the three of them fall out of their seats.

The moment Oni Yasha circled behind the GP01 Gundam Zephyranthes, the GP01 Gundam Zephyranthes also moved instantly. With a turn, its beam saber swept towards Oni Yasha's cockpit.

Oni Yasha had to block the beam saber with a beam saber. The GP01 Gundam Zephyranthes fired its 60mm vulcan cannon from its head, momentarily blinding the opponent's screen. Then, it blocked the opponent's other beam saber with its shield, followed by a kick to Oni Yasha's cockpit.

Fortunately, Oni Yasha's cockpit was quite sturdy. Otherwise, Zoshan Taro inside would have been crushed by the kick.

Zoshan Taro was stunned. He thought the efficiency boost had stopped, but upon checking, he saw it still had a minute left.

"That guy just got lucky," Zoshan Taro decided it was just a momentary lapse on his part and immediately charged at the GP01 Gundam Zephyranthes.

The subsequent battle left Zoshan Taro gaping.

As the two MS engaged in close combat, they crossed paths repeatedly, neither able to take down the other.

Zoshan Taro was sweating profusely, growing more alarmed with every exchange. He couldn't imagine facing his opponent without his efficiency boost; he didn't know how badly he would lose.

Suddenly, the GP01 Gundam Zephyranthes retreated to the side.

Zoshan Taro didn't know what was happening until he saw a beam of light on his screen and his cockpit began blaring with more intense alarms. The light on the screen grew larger and larger.

Realizing he was locked on and couldn't dodge, he immediately activated the particle cannon on Oni Yasha's right shoulder.

The two beams of light collided.

Alarms in the cockpit informed Zoshan Taro that Oni Yasha's particle cannon's thrust was inferior to the opponent's. The beam heading towards him had already broken through his particle cannon.

Zoshan Taro immediately manipulated the controls, allowing Oni Yasha to dodge to the side. The massive beam grazed past him, but its intense heat directly melted the particle cannon on Oni Yasha's right shoulder, and a portion of the armor on its right shoulder also melted.

Zoshan Taro felt a chill down his spine. If he had been even slightly slower, he would have been completely consumed by that powerful beam. He checked Oni Yasha's status on the adjacent screen; its right shoulder was damaged, and its reaction was weakened.

The alarm blared again.

The GP01 Gundam Zephyranthes attacked him once more.

Fortunately, the GP01 Gundam Zephyranthes only had one beam saber, which prevented him from being at a disadvantage due to his right shoulder's lack of mobility.

However, after a few more exchanges in close combat, Oni Yasha's efficiency boost officially ended.

"This is bad!"
