Long Fei and Taoxiang defused a plot to destroy a Colony Satellite support point before rushing to aid a Dagger squad under attack. After the Gundams crushed the enemy forces, the Sky Wing Mercenaries entered the underground level in pursuit of the armed men as a reporter livestreamed their advance.

• Long Fei learned that the Black Raven Mercenary Group and other armed groups had been hired by mysterious employers to cause destruction, and he told Colonel Shrek to ignore criticism of their interrogations.
• Long Fei and Taoxiang received a distress call from the squad investigating the third location and raced there aboard the Zeta Gundam.
• The Strike Gundam and Z Gundam turned the battle around, destroying the enemy squad and its twelve-unit reinforcement force.
• A short-haired reporter livestreamed the Gundams' victory and followed the Sky Wing Mercenaries' ground forces into the underground level after the armed men.

Colonel Shrek defended the Skywing Mercenary Group’s prisoner interrogations at a press conference, arguing that they had prevented further attacks and that the prisoners would be handed to Stunk Country’s courts. He answered questions about the group’s Gundams and ongoing operations, then offered reporters a live view of a ground-unit firefight as they searched for hidden militants and possible weapons of mass destruction.

• Shrek showed footage of militants massacring civilians and argued that the group’s interrogations had been more merciful and did not violate conventions governing national armed forces.

• Shrek said the prisoners were being kept somewhere safe and would be handed to Stunk Country’s departments for legal processing, rather than to grieving civilians seeking revenge.
• Shrek identified the group’s powerful MS units as Gundams and said they were not for sale; he also confirmed that the mercenaries were still fighting under a paid commission from Stunk Country.
• Shrek said the group had found no poison gas so far, then connected the press conference screen to a drone filming ground forces fighting an armed organization and a short-haired female reporter reporting nearby.

Skywing Mercenary Group forces defeated militants and uncovered a poison gas device while media broadcast their operations. As Long Fei prepared to leave Colony Satellite No. 5 for Colony Satellite No. 4, the group’s Gundams alarmed military leaders worldwide, and Long Dingkun regretted seizing Long Fei’s old blueprints.

• Sky Wing Mercenaries used drones to defeat a militant group, whose surviving members surrendered, and found a poison gas device in a briefcase.

• Military leaders worldwide concluded that the Skywing Mercenary Group’s Gundams and other weapons surpassed their own forces, and Long Dingkun learned the Dagger MS outclassed the Geon MS.
• Long Dingkun regretted seizing Long Fei’s old blueprints, then asked Long Huijuan for help.

Long Huijuan condemned Long Dingkun for mishandling Long Fei’s place in the Long Family, while a rescue operation in Stunk Country exposed Sky Wing Mercenaries’ Healing Gel on live television. Long Fei agreed to let reporters film the treatment of burned hostages using Medical Pods, but ordered his other technologies kept out of view.

• Long Huijuan berated Long Dingkun for trying to seize Long Fei’s technology and warned that the Long Family might one day beg for Long Fei’s forgiveness.

• Sky Wing Mercenaries treated a wounded female mercenary with Healing Gel, and reporters captured the rapid healing on a live broadcast.
• Long Fei approved using Medical Pods to treat burned hostages on camera, while telling Colonel Shrek to keep the mercenaries’ other technologies hidden.

After the fighting on Colony Satellite No. 5, Long Fei’s forces used the Medical Pod to treat severely burned victims, while his family worried that his inventions would put him in danger. As evacuations began, limited transport capacity caused panic among the millions still trapped on the damaged satellite.

• Reporters watched the Medical Pod restore burn victims’ skin, then Sky Wing Mercenaries escorted them away and confiscated their camera before returning it.
• Taoxiang destroyed the remaining enemy MS units, prompting the ground troops to surrender, and then returned to the MS Carrier under orders.

• Long Kui and her sisters worried that Xiao Fei’s inventions would attract dangerous attention, then learned that a representative from Skywing Chip Manufacturing Company was coming to meet them.
• Local forces began evacuating Colony Satellite No. 5, but after one hundred spacecraft departed with about two hundred thousand people, unrest spread among the more than 2.9 million citizens still waiting.
• The President of Stunk Country promised that more spacecraft would arrive and said he would remain with the citizens, calming many of them.

Long Fei considered an experimental Alaya-Vijnana System surgery that might restore the paralyzed young mercenary Mellis’s ability to walk, and began preparing for the operation. Meanwhile, Colony Satellite No. 5’s citizens continued evacuating, as a man’s attempt to cut in line turned violent.

• Long Fei read the casualty report and learned that thirteen-year-old Mellis had been paralyzed by severed nerves, then decided to try a surgery he believed might repair them.
• Long Fei visited Mellis in the medical room and explained that the operation might fail or kill him; Mellis accepted the risk because he would rather die than remain helpless.
• Long Fei confirmed Mellis’s background and left to prepare for the surgery, considering the risks and consequences of the Alaya-Vijnana System modification.
• More spacecraft arrived at Colony Satellite No. 5, and the Sky Wing Mercenaries helped local officials maintain order as citizens boarded evacuation ships.
• A tall man took a woman and child’s place in line and insulted a government worker who tried to stop him.
• The tall man shoved the government worker to the ground after she asked him to cooperate.

Sky Wing Mercenaries violently enforced order during the evacuation from Colony Satellite No. 5, drawing polarized reactions online. The local government then hired the Skywing Mercenary Group to use the same intimidation tactics at other sites to speed up evacuations.

• Three Sky Wing Mercenaries beat a tall man who harassed government staff and refused to cooperate, while the female government worker objected to their violence.
• The mercenaries threatened the crowd with a pistol and rifles until civilians, reporters, and camera operators returned to their places.
• Taoxiang watched the scene, remarked that some people would not listen without a beating, and left as footage spread internationally.
• The local government noticed civilians cooperated more readily where Sky Wing Mercenaries were present and asked the Skywing Mercenary Group to send squads to intimidate troublemakers.
• The mercenaries beat civilians who cut in line or otherwise refused to cooperate, while government workers generally looked the other way.

After militants launched attacks on civilians boarding spaceships, Saintess Aina, the Sky Wing Mercenaries, and their allies treated the wounded amid widespread panic. Taoxiang saved a critically injured mother and condemned bystanders who refused to help, prompting someone to step forward.

• Militants infiltrated civilian boarding lines, killed staff and civilians, and planted a timed bomb that Sky Wing Mercenaries discovered and sent experts to defuse.
• Militant attacks struck several areas, including the artificial coastal district, while Saintess Aina ordered her subordinates to treat the wounded.
• Sky Wing Mercenaries used drones to transport critically injured civilians into their warship for treatment in Medical Pods, while Taoxiang and her comrades treated others outside.
• Taoxiang used her last dose of Healing Gel to save a wounded mother whose daughter was beside her.
• When bystanders refused to care for the mother, Taoxiang slapped and berated one man and rebuked the crowd until someone stepped forward to help.

Terrorist attacks worsened the evacuation crisis on Colony Satellite No. 5 while Long Fei learned that medical supplies were running low and reinforcements would take four days to arrive. Kex Country, Maga Country, and Dak Country sent aid and called for an end to hatred, but a secret group plotted to spread the war through more attacks and false blame.

• Taoxiang killed an armed man trying to detonate a bomb as explosions and panic spread across the evacuation zone.
• After finishing surgery on Mellis, Long Fei learned from Shlaik that the Medical Pods were full, Healing Gel was nearly gone, and supplies—including the Barbatos and Astaroth Gundam—were four days away.

• Civilians in several countries called for wars to stop, while a secret group discussed staging terrorist attacks on other Colony Satellites and framing rival nations to prolong the conflict.

Long Fei explained the Alaya-Vijnana System after Mellis recovered from surgery, revealing its power and risks. He arranged for Mellis to learn to pilot an MS and said he would test his compatibility when the new Gundam arrived.

• Mellis demonstrated that he could move freely after Long Fei's Alaya-Vijnana System surgery.
• Long Fei showed the gathered mercenaries data explaining that the system could greatly enhance a pilot and MS but risked paralysis or death.
• Long Fei explained that Mellis's surgery had combined Alaya-Vijnana nanomachines with therapeutic nanomachine technology to improve its chance of success.

As Colony Satellite No. 5 of Stunk Country broke apart, Saintess Aina and Long Fei helped evacuate its remaining civilians aboard spacecraft. On the Skywing Mercenary Group's flagship, Long Fei shared his food with Sophia and pushed away a reporter who tried to interview him.

• Saintess Aina ordered her fleet to take aboard civilians, and Colonel Shrek agreed to open his warships after searches.
• Long Fei told the mercenaries to call him Captain Long while they followed Aina's fleet toward Colony Satellite No. 4.
• The colony satellite broke apart after all civilians had evacuated, and reporter Wang Xiuling interviewed survivors aboard the Albion MS Mothership.
• Long Fei sat with Lidaya and Sophia at lunch, gave Sophia his chocolate bun and milk, and glared at a man he suspected of taking her bun.
• Wang Xiuling tried to question Long Fei about his Gundam and nationality, so he pushed her aside and had mercenaries remove her and her cameraman.

Long Fei’s fleet headed toward Stunk Country’s Fourth Colony Satellite, where pirates were preparing to seize a Gundam for the Amaterasu Organization. Meanwhile, Stunk Country’s president watched the Skywing Mercenary Group resupply in flight and suspected its covered mobile suits were Gundams.

• Long Fei learned that the route to the Fourth Colony Satellite passed through the pirate-infested ruins of the Sixth Colony Satellite and asked Colonel Shrek when their requested supplies would arrive.
• Sam, Sandak, and Fukada No worried that the Amaterasu Organization had ordered them to capture Gundams, then agreed to attempt the mission after a masked representative said capturing one would suffice.

• Sam decided the pirates would try to capture one Gundam and withdraw from the battle immediately afterward.
• Stunk Country’s president watched footage of the Skywing Mercenary Group resupplying while traveling and was told that two canvas-covered mobile suits were very likely Gundams.

Long Fei adjusted Barbatos and Astaroth for Mellis to test, explaining the risks of the Alaya-Vijnana System and forbidding its dangerous limit release without his command. The tests showed Mellis adapted to both Gundams, while observers watched from the fleet and Stunk Country.

• Long Fei warned Mellis that Barbatos’s Alaya-Vijnana System could overwhelm his brain, then adjusted it so Mellis could connect safely.
• Li Xiucheng abandoned his wish to undergo Alaya-Vijnana surgery after Long Fei described the high failure risk for adults.
• Mellis adapted to Barbatos’s system and tested its evasion, shooting, and close-combat performance as Saintess Aina’s group, Stunk Country, and reporters watched.
• Long Fei explained that ordinary pilots could operate Barbatos and Astaroth but could not activate the Alaya-Vijnana System’s limit release, which could cost a pilot their life.
• Taoxiang questioned why Long Fei had developed such a dangerous system, and Long Fei said he would not abuse it or let people with ulterior motives misuse it.
• Mellis completed Astaroth’s test, which produced results similar to Barbatos’s.

The Pirate Group attacked the Stunk Country fleet with six powerful Oni Yasha Mobile Suits, forcing the escort forces and the Skywing Mercenary Group to respond. After Long Fei deployed the Gundams, Ke Jie Xiong destroyed one Oni Yasha with GP04 Gundam, while the other five remained in the battle.

Long Fei’s team examined the captured Evil Oni Mobile Suit and judged it a poor research reference, while international media continued to harass the Skywing Mercenary Group and its company. Reviewing development reports, Long Fei considered sending the completed Justice Goddess Gundam Type F Kai and the Judgment Goddess Gundam to protect Saintess Aina’s convoy.

• International reporters followed Long Fei’s fleet and pressured Skywing bases and Skywing Arms Manufacturing Company for information about who developed the Gundams.
