The Chapter get Retranslated

Murrue quickly said to Kira, "Can you connect Barbatos's communication to the Archangel?"

"No, he cut off communication, and his signal is strange; I can't track him."

Murrue remembered the intense signal interference at the moment, just like before when the Archangel didn't appear. The Archangel couldn't contact Strike, but Mikazuki could.

Now that Strike could communicate with the Archangel, it was naturally because they were close enough.

Murrue's expression was a little troubled, and she was very worried about Mikazuki.

"That child..."

Mwu smiled wryly, looking at the receding mobile suit outside.

"That kid's got guts. None of the guys in Creuset Team are simple opponents. What should we do, Captain? Should we support him?"

Murrue thought for a long time before shaking her head.

"No, the Archangel's weapons, even the grenades, would cause too much damage to the satellite. We cannot attack rashly. First, observe Barbatos's battle with the enemy MS. If Barbatos falls into danger, we will provide support. Kira-kun, I'm counting on you for any leaks. No problem, right?"

"Yes!"

Murrue nodded, satisfied with Kira's answer.

"Good, but we can't do nothing. Activate all Vulcan cannons and destroy the fortress weapons launched by the enemy. We absolutely cannot let them fall onto the satellite."

In the CIC below, Nataru immediately said, "Understood. All Vulcan cannons are ready. Aiming and firing systems are flawless. The damage to the satellite would be about five percent."

Just as the Archangel prepared for battle, Mikazuki had already clashed with four mobile suits.

The three GINNs were nothing special, but what caught Mikazuki's attention was the red Gundam. This mobile suit gave him a different feeling from the regular grunts.

Orga reminded him, "Mika, be careful. This is the Aegis Gundam, unlike those GINNs."

Mikazuki nodded.

"Yeah, doesn't feel like a grunt."

Barbatos turned and fired a grenade behind him. The grenade exploded on a GINN that had tried to sneak up.

Athrun, in the Aegis, watched his comrade die in front of him again. He roared, raised his beam rifle, and quickly locked on.

A green beam shot out from the muzzle, and Mikazuki charged straight at Athrun, neither dodging nor evading.

"He's not dodging, he's looking for death... What?!"

A shocking scene unfolded before Athrun and Murrue, who had been watching from the Archangel. The beam hit Barbatos's armor and scattered in all directions.

Barbatos was unharmed; only faint black scorch marks appeared on its armor.

"No, this armor is definitely not PS armor. PS armor can't block beam weapons at all."

Athrun instantly realized that the mobile suit before him differed from the Gundam intelligence they possessed.

Firstly, the armor of the four Gundams they had seized and the Strike on the Archangel were all PS armor, which could completely resist physical weapon attacks but not beam weapons.

However, Barbatos's armor easily blocked the impact of the beam, so it definitely couldn't be PS armor. PS armor wasn't that abnormal.

In fact, Barbatos's Nanolaminate Armor and their PS armor were like complete opposites. The fact that beam weapons couldn't harm it meant that only physical weapons would be effective.

After all, in that world, basically all warships and mobile suits had Nanolaminate Armor and used projectile weapons.

Beam weapons were incredibly rare, except for one MA that survived the Calamity War 300 years ago, which Mikazuki alone destroyed on Mars. Even the powerful Gjallarhorn only used physical weapons.

Mikazuki fired two shots at the Aegis.

Athrun frowned as he saw Mikazuki's smoothbore gun. "Solid rounds?"

Didn't he know that solid rounds were ineffective against Gundam's PS armor?

"Damn it, those missiles weren't shot down. If the bridge above gets hit again, the satellite will be doomed."

In the CIC, Mwu had just helped Strike eliminate a GINN. Although it was eliminated, the anti-fortress weapons on the GINN were not destroyed and crashed into the satellite.

After cursing, he happened to notice the battle in Mikazuki's airspace.

"Seriously, solid rounds are useless against PS armor. Doesn't the boy know that? He should be advised to equip the Agni Super Electromagnetic Cannon."

Murrue, however, shook her head.

"No, Mikazuki-kun must have his own plan. He's not reckless. That boy possesses a calmness that even we adults don't have."

Although she said that, Murrue was very worried about the smoothbore gun in Mikazuki's hand, wondering if he was aware that the uncalibrated smoothbore gun would misfire.

Just then, Mikazuki's voice suddenly appeared on the Archangel's bridge.

"Help me shoot down the flies buzzing around me. They're too annoying."

"Mikazuki!"

"Boy!"

Murrue hurriedly said, "Mikazuki-kun, your swordfighting equipment hasn't been calibrated yet. The smoothbore gun will..."

Mikazuki unceremoniously interrupted Murrue.

"I know, don't worry about the misfire. I have it under control. Just fire at that one-eyed guy circling around me."

Murrue heard Mikazuki's words and saw another GINN constantly harassing Mikazuki during his engagement with the Aegis.

"Understood. Vulcan cannons number one to three and fourteen to sixteen, aim at the GINN and cover Barbatos. Kira-kun, pull that GINN away from Barbatos..."

"No need, just harass it, I'll take care of the rest myself."

Murrue's words were interrupted by Mikazuki again. As Mikazuki focused on defending against the two mobile suits' attacks, his gaze swept over the smoothbore gun in Barbatos's hand.

"Still... five shots. One to take care of the one-eye, and the remaining four for the red one... That's enough..."
