Gundam, driving a mass-produced machine will change the world

"Axis is falling toward Earth."

In the Mediterranean Sea, Eli was standing behind an old man fishing. The old man, with an unlit pipe dangling from his lips, stared at the float bobbing on the distant water, and finally broke the silence.

"As the leader of Ander Tek, aren't you going to stop it?"

"I'm still on Earth, what can I do? I can't exactly fly into space and try to push Axis away."

Eli wasn't in a hurry. He looked up at the sky. It was daytime, so Eli couldn't actually see anything. But he knew very well that various forces in space had activated their emergency plans. Not only the forces of Ond Tek and the Luna, but even many Titans forces that should have been fighting Ond Tek to the death had turned towards Axis's fall trajectory.

The One Year War allowed Zeon to drop a colony because the Federation hadn't anticipated Zeon's utter ruthlessness. They also set a bad precedent, leading spacefaring inhabitants to believe that the quickest and most effective way to assert their claims was to drop something on Earth to draw attention.

Therefore, in the years of development, contingency plans for preventing celestial bodies from falling have been continuously improved. For example, right now, a fleet that started from Luna II is preparing to deploy its solar power system to directly illuminate the thrusters behind Axis, on the side of Axis's trajectory.

Eli believed they could achieve their goal. This wasn't the Federation in 0093 from the original story, where a group of appeaseing politicians practically gave Axis's fall the green light all the way, believing it was just a bluff until the very last moment.

No matter how powerful Sirocco was, he couldn't threaten Earth when facing a fully mobilized Federation army, as he only had the Jupiter in his hands.

Therefore, Eli knew very well that, as mentioned above, Sirocco's actions were simply to make it clear to the world that he was serious about what he was saying and doing.

"Push Axis away? We should be able to do it if we all work together."

The old man neither agreed nor disagreed with Eli's joke, and even imagined the scene of MS pushing the asteroid, following Eli's words.

He lifted his fishing rod, and unsurprisingly, the rod came up empty. He needed to talk to someone, so the old man lost interest in fishing, put away his rod, and turned to look at Eli.

"So why aren't you pushing stones? What are you doing here at this old man's place?"

"Look at what you're saying, General Rebil, there's no better opportunity to change the Federation than now."

As Eli spoke, he stepped forward to help count the catch.

"Therefore, the Federation still needs your strength."

The count of the catch was completed quickly. During this time, General Rebil, who was "unemployed due to illness," remained silent until he saw Eli pack up the few small fish.

"You should know that I don't actually support all of humanity going to space. The Federation needs to develop into space, that's inevitable, but I don't think humanity should abandon Earth."

General Rebil doesn't look sick at all. Or rather, the Mediterranean Sea has been so effective in treating him that he has truly recovered.

"Once you leave Earth, you'll never see this kind of scenery again."

"It's okay, we'll be able to see more scenery. Besides, what we need to do now is not to send all of humanity into space at once, that would be murder, just like dropping a colony satellite onto Earth."

Eli looked at General Rebil before him. Eli knew very well that Rebil was not a seeker of change; he supported him only because he believed Eli's chosen path would allow the Federation to endure longer. But precisely, what Eli needed now was not a radical overhaul of the Federation, but rather someone with sufficient prestige to initiate a transition period that would last a long time.

In that case, General Reiber would undoubtedly be the best choice.

"Congressman Gop is already waiting for you to take your place. The formation of the new government will take time, so General, you should hurry up and set off."

A gust of wind swept across the lake, rippling its surface and causing Eli's uniform to flutter. Rebil stood up and looked at the white lead horse that was landing. Rebil knew that Eli needed someone to protect the fruits of victory before he had the power to ascend to the pinnacle of the Union.

"I'll wait until you take off your driving suit."
-
While the two on the ground were planning for the future of the Federation, a mirror was unfolding in space. This was naturally the fleet from Luna II, whose solar power system had been fully deployed, waiting only for Axis to arrive at the designated location before opening fire and then cooperating with friendly forces to completely intercept Axis.

It's safe to say that the Federation Space Forces have mentally rehearsed this plan countless times. The colony that crashed into Sydney remains the Federation's greatest wound to this day.

"Titans fleet has appeared on the flank!"

The commander frowned, but then he noticed that the Titans' fleet did not intend to attack them. Instead, it was approaching Axis from the gap between the various fleets, seemingly intending to coordinate an operation.

Even so, given that General Tiam had already declared his support for the new government, the Titans should logically be their enemy.

"Send them a copy of the battle plan."

The commander's men finally made a decision. Perhaps the Titans, under the guidance of their superiors, had distorted the organization's principles, but at least on the issue of preventing celestial bodies from falling to Earth, they still held firm to their principles.

Speaking of which, there's still the AEUG in the fleet right now. At this point, all parties can truly sit down and face the same issue together.

The battle plan, in essence, is quite simple. Irradiate Axis with solar panels to destroy its thrusters, then use various methods to force Axis to slow down. These methods include, but are not limited to, bombarding its front with nuclear weapons or MEGA particle cannons.

"In the end, why did Sirocco choose to stand against the Federation at this time?"

Scylla has not gained the support of any side. The Titans, the remnants of Zeon, the Zabuza, or any other side have not provided Scylla with any political or material support, and even its headquarters, the Jupiter, has not yet made its presence known in the Earth Sphere.

Ultimately, the Teo, in its current form, had already exhausted all the resources and production capacity on the Jupiter, leaving no room to build another army.

So why did Sirocco have such ambitions without obtaining any assistance?

To this day, Sirocco has neither responded to the Federation's call nor promoted its own claims, as if it simply wants to throw an asteroid at Earth.

Such an enemy is terrifying.

As the commander thought this, the flash solidified in an instant.

The solar power system, this simple and reliable large-scale weapon, once again lived up to expectations by destroying the Axis core engine, thus depriving Axis of its acceleration capabilities.

Even if the Federation ceases all intervention against Axis from this point onward, it will not fall to Earth, but will ultimately pass by Earth in its orbit. The greatest harm it could cause to Earth would be to trigger abnormal tides, potentially causing tsunamis. Amidst the thick smoke and rocks erupting from the rear of Axis, streaks of light rapidly approached. Federation mobile suits quickly opened passages at various gates above Axis to invade its interior.

But what awaited them was not the enormous Teostra they had expected, but a pure white machine.

Demeter.

However, unlike the information available to the Federation, the head of the Demeter in front of them had become unusually bloated, almost like the prototype Qubeley, the origin of this lineage, where the neck of the machine was no longer visible.

Clearly, the Demeter before us has enhanced the Psycommu device mounted on its head, to the point that it had to be enlarged to ensure sufficient power. What, then, is the purpose of enhancing the Psycommu device?

The floating cannons, pre-embedded in various channels, suddenly attacked after the Federation's mobile suits had passed by, bypassing the shields and destroying the mobile suits that entered Axis from different directions from behind.

In an instant, the Federation's communication interface was filled with the cries of agony from frontline soldiers. But the commander within the solar system remained unmoved. Ordinary soldiers indeed had little power to resist the Newtypes, but that didn't mean there were no solutions.

The new generation is still human, and they get tired.

"Ha ha…"

Among Demeter, Sindhu, who had been readjusted and whose allegiance had been shifted to Sirocco, was currently panting heavily.

She didn't feel physically tired, but the dull pain in her brain made it difficult for her to see the interface in front of her. It seemed that she could only perceive the floating cannons from the Psycommu device, while the reality in front of her became a blur.

Yes, machines can increase their power and performance at any time by adding external equipment, but human capabilities are ultimately limited. How could we possibly enable Sindhu to go from being able to operate only seven or eight floating cannons at the same time to operating more than thirty at once in such a short period of time?

Sindhu was overdrawing his life force; he essentially gave everything to the machine in exchange for the power to do all of this.

However, this force obviously could not buy any more time. In the narrow passage for MS, the space for the funnels to move was already limited. After the battle time was slightly prolonged, the funnels that were too far away to return to replenish energy and propellant were eventually overwhelmed by the successive MS forces, which surrounded Demeter in the center from all directions.

Among them, one mobile suit was at the forefront.

"An unpleasant yet warm feeling... Is it you again, Lala?"

A dazzling golden machine, in its MA form, is speeding towards Demeter's location after dealing with two floating cannons blocking its way.

Inside his vehicle, Char tilted his head from side to side, gazing at the interior of this asteroid that was all too familiar to him. It was only after witnessing a group of fanatical Zabi supporters on Axis that Char realized how irresponsible it was to have only thought of revenge against the Zabi in the name of Zeon, without considering how to legitimize the name Zeon.

However, because of Lala, Char chose to leave the core of the struggle and wanted to live peacefully with Lala in a remote place.

And now, it is because of Lala that Char has come to Axis again.

With a gentle swipe of the control lever, the golden Delta Gundam turned and entered a vast space.

The moment it rushed into this space, the Delta Gundam transformed into its MS form, its frontal thrusters gleaming with light. The entire machine then stiffened and moved upwards, dodging a barrage of funnel fire.

Yes, even now, there are still twelve floating cannons circling around Demeter. Moreover, starting from the chest of Demeter, an ominous purple light is rising, eventually enveloping the entire machine and connecting with the floating cannons.

From that moment on, Sindhu almost completely lost the vision provided by his eyes, replaced by another level of senses. Like a Gundam Barbatos pilot from another universe, Sindhu's perception was replaced by the machine, making him unable to survive independently of his machine, and ultimately he was devoured by it.

With this newfound sensory experience, Sindhu was finally overjoyed. Her physical exhaustion seemed to subside, and she gained new strength to face the enemy and buy more time for Sirocco.

Therefore, she focused her hostility on the enemy who was the first to arrive in front of her.

However, what Sindhu received in return was not reciprocal hostility.

Char was grieving.

Even if the other person wasn't a clone of Lala, but just any other being, being used to this extent would still make Char feel sad.

But this sorrow did not deter Sindhu's hostility, nor did it cause Char to surrender so easily.

The beams of light suddenly intertwined within this space!
The Delta Gundam, in its original history, was so flawed that it's uncertain whether it was ever even produced. But here, after being perfected, it is now Char's personal machine, and its Psycommu device has been meticulously adjusted to maximize Char's Newtype abilities.

As a result, after several rounds of fighting, Delta Gundam's beam rifle fired a beam of power exceeding the theoretical limit. Its barrel was even unable to control the beam of such power, and some particles dissipated after leaving the barrel.

But this actually made the beam more effective, destroying several floating cannons in its path.

This violates common sense in physics.

However, if you shift your perspective and look at the body of the Delta Gundam, you will understand why this scene occurred.

A pale purple glow also shone around the Delta Gundam.

"I have no reason why I can't do it. I will cut off your tragedy, and then cut off the root of the tragedy!"

As Char declared this, the Delta Gundam's eyes shone with a brilliant light.

The two beams of light collided.

"It's unpleasant... but at least it's finished."

Also within Axis, in that massive Theo, Sirocco glanced behind him at the direction where Char and Sindhu were engaged in a chaotic battle.

Before him lay the core area of ​​Axis, the location of the reactor. (End of Chapter)
