The moment the firing ceased, the White Ginn maneuvered in mid-air, spinning and shifting several meters to the left to evade incoming attacks.

It opened fire with the Heavy Assault Machine Gun in its hands.

Bullets tore through the air toward the front.

The high-speed projectiles shredded the Vanguard Fighter.

Lowering its muzzle, it opened fire on the ground vehicles.

Five or six rounds erupted from the barrel.

They struck the ground, flipping and obliterating the tanks.

The ground vehicles stood no chance against the assault raining down from the White Ginn above.

After finishing off those vehicles, the White Ginn adjusted its thrusters and maneuvered to the rear right. Having dodged an attack, it turned its weapon toward the source and opened fire.

The attacking Vanguard Fighter was instantly blown to pieces.

It disintegrated and plummeted toward the ground.

Shifting its aim, it opened fire on the remaining Vanguard Fighters.

Several shots rang out.

The bullets traveled along different trajectories, finally meeting their intended targets: the Vanguard Fighters. The immense kinetic energy tore the fighters apart, causing them to explode and disintegrate in the sky.

Several Vanguard Fighters maneuvered, their cannons aimed at the White Ginn piloted by Felix, but when they pulled their triggers, they found no ammunition left to fire.

In this situation, they checked their ammunition displays, only to see that their supplies were completely exhausted.

"I'm out of ammo!"

They shouted to their comrades over the comms.

They manipulated their Vanguard Fighters to turn and retreat.

Many other Vanguard Fighters followed suit.

Seeing this unusual situation unfold, Felix naturally could not let such a golden opportunity slip by.

He piloted the White Ginn in hot pursuit, relentlessly attacking these defenseless targets.

In less than a minute, he had decimated the ammo-depleted Vanguard Fighters, leaving almost none able to escape the battlefield.

With those threats neutralized, the number of remaining Vanguard Fighters in the sky was now in the single digits.

Before Felix could even fire again, other ZAFT MS pilots in their Ginns took the initiative to finish off the remaining few Vanguard Fighters.

"Captain, I'm low on ammo as well."

A squad member reported his status to Felix over the comms. Hearing the report, Felix issued an order.

"Consolidate your ammunition, and have the rest return to the Victoria Spaceport for resupply."

After issuing this order, Felix contacted the reserve unit stationed at the Victoria Spaceport.

"Reserve unit, launch! Proceed to your designated sectors for support and rotation as previously planned."

"Understood!"

Came the reply over the comms.

Inside the Victoria Spaceport, the reserve unit, which had been waiting to sortie, quickly took to the skies and maneuvered toward the various battlefields according to the orders.

On the battlefield, Felix had just finished off three or four tanks in his White Ginn when a frantic incoming attack warning blared. The urgent alarm caused Felix to focus his gaze forward, and the screen zoomed in on the situation ahead.

What came into view were missiles flying toward him.

Watching the incoming missiles, Felix opened fire with his Heavy Assault Machine Gun.

Round after round erupted from the muzzle.

Bullet after bullet destroyed the incoming missiles.

After detonating the incoming projectiles, he saw a new formation of Vanguard Fighters flying toward them. Dozens of Vanguard Fighters opened fire simultaneously, the cannon fire surging toward Felix and his team like a massive net.

Manipulating the controls, the White Ginn stepped off a Guul to perform various aerial maneuvers, constantly micro-adjusting its position to dodge the incoming barrage.

Raising the Heavy Assault Machine Gun, he pulled the trigger, and bullets tore from the barrel.

Flying at high speed through the air, they finally struck the Vanguard Fighters.

The immense kinetic energy shredded the fighters.

Flashes of explosion lit up the sky one after another.

Witnessing the sacrifice of their comrades, the remaining Vanguard Fighter pilots maneuvered their craft in the air, making their positions unpredictable.

Eyes fixed on the screen, watching these constantly maneuvering Vanguard Fighters, Felix's lips curled slightly upward as his gaze swept across the display.

While dodging attacks through his control of the mobile suit, he calculated and predicted the flight paths of these Vanguard Fighters.

After dodging a few times, he had a rough idea of the situation.

The White Ginn maneuvered left in the air to evade the attack, opening fire with the Heavy Assault Machine Gun in its hands.

A bullet fired from the chamber.

BOOM!

A deafening roar erupted ahead as a Vanguard Fighter was instantly blown to pieces. Having dealt with that one, Felix fixed his gaze on the remaining Vanguard Fighters, dodged incoming fire, and opened up with the Heavy Assault Machine Gun again.

Another explosion occurred.

The Vanguard Fighter maneuvering in the air was blasted apart.

Having completed this attack, Felix steered the White Ginn to the right, dodging shells fired from the ground.

The Heavy Assault Machine Gun opened fire.

Bullets struck a ground vehicle, causing it to detonate violently and swallowing its three crew members in the blast.

Seeing the fate of their comrade, the other vehicles began to maneuver on the ground while aiming their cannons at the sky.

Compared to the speed of the aerial fighters and the Guul, the ground vehicles were far too slow; in Felix's eyes, they were nothing more than sitting ducks.

Two shots blew up two more vehicles.

As the Guul carried the White Ginn forward under Felix's control, he dodged an attack from the right, raised the weapon in the White Ginn's hand, and opened fire.

The pilot of the Vanguard Fighter attacking from the right saw this and hurriedly tried to maneuver away, but was struck by the second incoming bullet just as the movement began.

Following an explosion, the fighter disintegrated in mid-air.

After downing that one, the Guul carried the White Ginn at high speed through the air, dodging attacks from the front and both sides under Felix's precise control.

With a rapid burst of speed, he charged in front of a Vanguard Fighter.

Under the pilot's terrified gaze, the White Ginn swung the Heavy Slash Blade in its hand.

A single, clean strike landed on the target.

The sharp Heavy Slash Blade, bolstered by the force of the swing, tore the fighter apart with ease.

The fighter, split in two, plummeted toward the ground.

As it fell, it shattered and exploded, raining smaller fragments down toward the earth.

Even as it exploded, Felix was already steering the White Ginn toward the next Vanguard Fighter; his speed and precise positioning left the pilot staring in shock, his eyes filled with terror.

"Damn it! How is this guy so strong!"

The pilot let out a terrified growl.

He maneuvered his fighter in the air, attempting to put some distance between himself and the White Ginn.

As he maneuvered, the White Ginn opened fire.
