• A maintenance worker called out that the crew had discovered an incredible power unit.

Long Fei examined the captured Oni Yasha Mobile Suit’s miniaturized Fission Power Unit, refusing to use the dangerous technology in Gundams while promising to pursue safer nuclear fusion power. After the Skywing Mercenary Group’s transport ships arrived with the captured spoils, Long Fei decided the unit might help him develop a Minovsky-type Thermonuclear Reactor.

• Orbis and Long Fei were astonished to discover that the Oni Yasha Mobile Suit used a miniaturized Fission Power Unit.
• Li Xiucheng realized the unit’s performance boost had explained why the Oni Yasha Mobile Suit had suppressed his Gundam in battle.
• Avina suggested equipping Gundams with the captured units, but Long Fei rejected the idea because of the risk of radiation leaks and said he would instead try to develop nuclear fusion power units.
• Long Fei considered how the advanced technology exceeded the era’s industrial capabilities and could not yet be mass-produced.
• Eighteen transport ships arrived under escort, and their crews saw the large haul of captured spoils being unloaded.
• Long Fei decided to study the Fission Power Unit as a reference for developing a Minovsky-type Thermonuclear Reactor.

• Long Fei inspected the GP02 Physalis, GP03 Stamen, and Gundam GP04 Gerbera, then described Gerbera’s speed and its mission to penetrate enemy formations and capture the opposing commander.
• Long Fei ordered the pilots to test Gundam Gerbera first because GP02 and GP03’s weapons systems were unfinished, and a draw selected Zhou Ya as its first test pilot.
• Zhou Ya put on her pilot combat suit, entered Gundam Gerbera’s cockpit, and began the test.

Zhou Ya, Li Xiucheng, Yue Yangchun, and other pilots tested Gundam Chrysanthemum, but its extreme speed overwhelmed their physical limits. Long Fei identified software lag in the machine and later approved recruiting refugees into the mercenary corps.

• Zhou Ya tested Gundam Chrysanthemum, struggled with its speed, and ended her trial when her body neared its limit.
• Li Xiucheng evaded the simulated attacks and shook off missiles using the auxiliary booster tanks, but stopped testing after the acceleration strained his chest.
• Yue Yangchun and the other pilots also failed to continue testing after Gundam Chrysanthemum pushed their bodies too hard.
• Long Fei reviewed the results, found that software lag hindered Gundam Chrysanthemum's coordination, and assigned further adjustments to the software engineering department.
• Long Fei considered ways to improve the pilots' physiques and continued developing reactor technology.
• Li Jiaming proposed recruiting displaced refugees into the mercenary corps, and Long Fei approved the plan.
