Compared to the bridge trio, the other crew members on the Archangel only knew that Siegfried, like Kira, had gone to the Dawn Society to provide technical assistance. From the beginning to the end, Malu never revealed that he had no intention of coming back.

Fortunately, Maliu didn't announce it, which saved Siegfried the trouble of explaining everything after he returned to the ship. Even Miri thought he just came back stuck in time, so she came here to laugh at him. .

"Huh? Aren't you going to stay in Orb and marry the princess? It turns out that you are willing to come back."

"Miriya-san, as a CIC, you seem to have a lot of dissatisfaction with me, the ACE."

"How dare I? Maybe in the future, if you become Prime Minister Orb, I will even plan to write a memoir of your story on the ship and sell it for money~ Ouch, it hurts."

Seeing that the other party's words were getting more and more out of tune, Siegfried flicked Miri's forehead with his finger in a funny way, "The book is called The Story Miri and Prime Minister Siegfried Had to Tell, okay? Your Thor is really too used to it. It’s you.”

"Hey~ that idiot, I don't even bother to talk about him."

"Show affection, right? I'm sorry I caught you."

However, the relaxed atmosphere only lasted until the moment of leaving Orb's territorial waters. As the entire Archangel sailed out of the coastline, Malu issued an order for the second combat alert, and all combatants must remain on duty.

Originally, Malu didn't want to make the whole ship nervous prematurely. After all, it was still a long journey from Alaska, and it would do no good to tense up for a long time. But after Baji Lulu insisted, 'This is war, Under the argument that nothing happens during war, it is still necessary to use the second combat alert to deal with possible accidents.

It turns out that you can always trust Bucky Lulu when it comes to fighting. After receiving Shiho, Team Sala is in a state of 'voluntarily accepting third-party supervision'. However, the ZAFT ground forces are not just the Sala team. Apparently Aslan is serious this time. Just four hours after the Archangel left Orb, another Voskurov-class ship has already appeared in The shipboard radar is on.

Then, just when Malu was about to come up with the truce agreement negotiated in Orb, the other party sent out a signal for regular patrols. At this moment, the position was on the high seas. If ZAFT was just patrolling, no one would have anything to say.

"Can't we take a pre-emptive strike? We are on the high seas. The Alliance and PLANT are already at war. Even if they are on normal patrol, we can attack directly."

Bucky Lulu would not get used to ZAFT's bad habits. Seeing that the other party made it clear that he wanted to follow her, he immediately summoned three pilots to take down this damn Voskulov-class ship.

"Lieutenant who can't do it, let's not mention that their current depth is simply beyond the reach of MS. If they can't hit the mothership, it's a useless fight. Even those Goohns never fight with us. Kira and I will go down. Several times, the opponent ran away as soon as they saw it was a sword fighting equipment. The air combat and artillery combat components did not even have decent firepower underwater, so they just wanted to hold off until the Sala team caught up."

It's not that Siegfried and the others were unaware of the current passive situation, but Gespenst and Assault continued to fight in the water. Except for the first time when a Goohn was accidentally hit by an electromagnetic rifle and killed Siegfried, the rest of the times were Walking in circles around the two of them from a distance.

The assault sword fighting equipment could only stare blankly in this situation. After all, Gespenst was not a specially equipped underwater machine. After pursuing it several times and finding that the opponent refused to approach because of the electromagnetic rifle, he gave up the plan of shooting it down.

"Then there's nothing we can do!"

The taste of passivity always makes people feel irritated. Bucky Lulu punched the table in the war room hard, but the three pilots really couldn't give much useful advice.

"Who made the joint surface force such a noob?"

In the end, it was Siegfried who revealed the core problem. With the beginning of the space era, the equipment of the old navy could not keep up with the update speed of the space force. Although the internal political power in the Earth's circle in the CE world is not highly unified, and there are only three large-scale political aggregations, it is undeniable that almost all countries have intentionally or unintentionally ignored the role of the navy. The result is that the current Archangel has great influence on the sea. ZAFT is helpless.

"Be prepared for a fight to the death. Judging from the opponent's actions, it seems that they are waiting for the merger with the G team before launching an offensive. Before that, this is the only way."

Mu's conclusion finally set the tone for the meeting, and Siegfried was grateful for the decision he made. He originally thought it would be a 3V4, but now there is another Voskurov-class submarine. It is said that that kind of submarine The maximum number of aircraft can be carried up to a mind-numbing 14 aircraft. Even if the ship below them is not fully loaded, someone must take care of it not only in the air but also under the water. In this case, if he does not join, even Kira's explosive seed will probably be in trouble.

In this suffocating atmosphere, three days seemed so short. And what's even worse is that the entire Archangel is not particularly manned, otherwise Millie and the others would not be needed to join the bridge. Now being harassed by underwater troops day and night, the entire bridge and the maintenance squad are working overload.

Originally, Siegfried had planned to ignore those Goohns, but Mu rejected this 'arrogant idea'. And that night, after discovering that Assault and Gespenst had not launched into the water, Goohn threw them at the bottom of the ship. A few anti-air rocket darts were fired. In the end, there was no other way. Siegfried and Kira began to take turns on duty, no matter day or night, as soon as the shadow of the aircraft on the radar lit up, they would immediately launch a pursuit.

Time came to the fifth day, and Bucky Lulu calculated that the time for Team Sara to catch up was imminent. Kira had just slept lightly in Fleur's room for a while before preparing to change Siegfried's shift, but was pulled. Lived in the corner of the clothes.

"Frey, don't be like this. If you weren't determined to return to Alaska, Lieutenant Bucky Lulu would never have allowed you to board the ship."

Originally, when she was in Orb, Fleur was forced to retire due to her "intentional assassination of a colleague". Bucky Lulu's intention was to let Orb take over her directly and never allow her to follow anyone who caused trouble again. But Fleur brought up her late father's name and said that she was going to Alaska to find relatives. Because George Alusta was killed in the process of welcoming the Archangel anyway, Malu agreed to her decision. She asked, but also asked her not to leave the room, lest something happen again. With Bucky Lulu's character, she would definitely be shot.

After leaving Orb, Fleur has indeed stayed in the room honestly. Kira usually takes care of her daily life. Even if she knew that Siegfried was back, she didn't cause any trouble. But now suddenly Stopped Kira who was about to change his shift.

"Kira. I'm scared."

"I will protect you and everyone on this ship!"

"But dad, you said so at that time. The murderer..."

"Frey! Siegfried didn't have to come back!"

"Kira. I am to you"

"He didn't have to come back!!!"

After repeating the same sentence twice in a row, maybe because she felt that her tone was a little harsh, Kira finally patted Fleur's hand and signaled her to let go of her, otherwise she would miss the time if she didn't change shifts.

Looking at Kira's leaving figure, Fleur, who was only wearing single clothes, clung to the sheets tightly. For some reason, at this moment, she felt that her heart became a little empty, and finally, in a helpless mood, she used her hands to The sheets were balled up.

Kira, who was unaware of this, arrived at Gnaku and found Millie standing next to Gespenst holding a dinner plate, looking concerned and anxious.

"Millie, what's wrong?"

"It will be meal time. Lieutenant Bucky Lulu asked me to send food to Gnaku to save the pilot's energy, but Siegfried seems to have fallen asleep."

Rubbing his eyes, Kira actually felt tired, so he was not surprised that Siegfried fell asleep in the cockpit. However, it was shift change time, so Kira still asked Marduk to leave. The hatch opened from the outside and woke up Siegfried, who was sleeping soundly.

"Did ZAFT call!!! Where is it!!!"

After waking up, Siegfried grabbed the joystick. In the end, Millie gently told him that the food had been delivered, and then he slowly released his alert posture.

For Siegfried, the past few days were a nightmare. Even during his escape from the universe, he never felt tired. Firstly, by adjusting a person's physical fitness, he can indeed continue to fight for a longer time than a natural person. Secondly, at that time, not even the pervert Kruse had harassed him day and night like this, more or less. There is always a time to take a breath.

But now, due to the shortage of manpower, only Strike and Gespenst can go into the water. He and Kira must be on duty alone for 24 hours before changing shifts. Although Mu has taught the two in advance how to save energy during non-combat time, Siegfried I still feel like exhaustion is drowning me like a tide.

"What day is it today?" Siegfried ate his meal quickly. This kind of day and night life had made Siegfried lose the concept of time.

"On the fifth day, according to calculations, the pursuing troops will catch up with us tomorrow at the latest."

"No matter what, it's better than living like this."

"Thank you and Kira for your hard work."

"This is war. Any means, as long as it works."

"Everyone is on first combat alert, all members are on first combat alert!"

The sudden alarm sounded throughout the ship. Siegfried hurriedly handed the half-eaten dinner plate to Millie, then turned over and jumped back into the cockpit. After turning on the screen, Bucky Lulu appeared in front of him with a serious expression. in front of.

"The radar shows that the four Gs have caught up. The MS troops will attack immediately after they are ready."

"Shouldn't it be tomorrow? Did they fly over?"

As the oldest pilot, although Mu could not participate in the watch because the machine could not enter the water, he still accompanied Kira and Siegfried in the Gnaku, and did not go back alone because he did not need to attack on his own. Resting, at this time his Air Dominator has been transferred to the catapult, and is about to attack as a forward to meet the enemy.

"It did fly over. According to the news from the Orb side, the army transferred two large transport planes and transported G upright and openly under the eyes of the Orb army. They took off immediately after three days, so That shortened the pursuit time.”

Since the attack also required mounting equipment, Gespenst was the second to step on the catapult. While Siegfried was surprised by Aslan's decisiveness, he also lamented that he was worthy of being the new Speaker of the House. Obviously all large transport vehicles They were all moving closer to Alaska, but Dad had the authority. Patrick was able to squeeze out two transport planes specifically for his son to pursue the Archangel.

Thinking of this, Siegfried connected the channel to the attack. Looking at Kira with a complicated expression, he still had to remind him, "Kira Yamato, your good friend is determined to shoot us down this time. , maybe he still has some affection for you, but obviously we are not on his forgiveness list, and now you know better than you in terms of fighting power, so don’t draw any further lines!"

After saying that, seeing the three LAUNCH indicator lights on, following Miri's guidance, Siegfried stepped on the pedal, "Gespenst, attack, Miri turn on the external power supply."

The black mobile suit ejected with two cans of equipment on its back that looked like fuel tanks. Compared with the original, the mobile suit had added balance wings in many places on its fuselage. However, it did not rely on its flying ability to go straight to the Sala team. Instead, it slightly adjusted its posture and stopped on the deck of the Archangel. Then the folded slender barrel behind the body unfolded smoothly, and behind the barrel A power cord was extended, and Siegfried did a little manipulation to connect it to the open external interface of the Archangel.

"The liquid nitrogen reserve is 100%, and the neutron interference is serious, so we can only aim visually."

Although Hilde told him that Harrow could no longer 'backstab' without permission, Siegfried only consulted Gespenst's modification information and still did not bring this auxiliary helper.

"The air convection on the sea surface is really troublesome."

The computer on the MS was constantly calculating the shooting route, and at the same time, the bridge of the Archangel also synchronized the data from the ship's observer. Bucky Lulu decided to strike preemptively like him.

Taking advantage of the opportunity of data sharing, Siegfried was also manually fine-tuning his aim. As several black spots visible to the naked eye appeared at the end of the sky, he finally pressed the fire button of the small positron cannon that had never been used before. switch.

Red energy surged out from the muzzle. Almost at the same time, a large amount of liquid nitrogen was sprayed on the barrel from the rear of the fuselage. Along with the huge fire in the distance, Gespenst immediately turned on the high-frequency vibration, and the positron cannon The ice fragments broke apart inch by inch, and finally turned into ice fragments scattered on the surface of the Indian Ocean.
