The Chapter get Retranslated
"Who knows?"
Mikazuki unhooked from the Alaya-Vijnana System, put on his jacket, and talked with Orga.
"But what's certain is that it's probably his first time entering that state."
"Oh, I'm impressed you could tell."
"Is it telling, or sensing...?"
"What is that, your intuition?"
"Something like that."
Mikazuki jumped off the Gundam Barbatos and greeted Kojiro.
"Nice work, kid."
Mikazuki responded with a very flat, "Oh."
Kojiro shook his head with a helpless expression. He felt Mikazuki was too calm, not at all like someone who had just achieved victory.
"Seriously, your reaction is too bland. We drove off a ZAFT Warship and took out three Mobile Suits! Try to look a little happier!"
"Happy? Whatever. I'm going back first."
Mikazuki brushed past Kojiro, who waved his hand.
"Alright, alright, get some rest. Nininiku."
As Mikazuki left the hangar and the elevator, he saw a pale-faced Kira being supported by his comrades, passing through the corridor.
On the other side, Murrue had also just left the bridge and was hurrying over.
Kira saw Mikazuki stop and turned to look at him blankly.
"I... did something happen just now?"
Mikazuki stared at him for a moment, Nininiku.
"No."
"Is that so?"
Kira still felt a little dazed. Kashu, who was closest to him, quickly helped him steady himself.
"Let's go back to your room first, Kira."
So, Kira returned to his room, surrounded by his comrades. Murrue came to Mikazuki's side and watched Kira's retreating back with him.
"You said Kira awakened during the battle? What does that mean...?"
"Literal meaning. I don't know the specifics, but he... seems to be transforming.
Just like my first kill... the time has come to choose a path."
"A path..."
Murrue found Mikazuki's words a bit difficult to understand, even feeling profound. Mikazuki withdrew his gaze, placed his hand on the conveyor belt, and moved forward with his feet off the ground. Murrue followed behind him.
"Thanks for your help with the command earlier."
"No problem, but to miss at that range, you really surprised me."
Mikazuki gave a dead fish eye. Thinking about the missed main cannon shot made him speechless. If it had been Eugene or his group, that shot would have definitely hit the bridge.
Murrue heard Mikazuki's complaint and gave a trembling, wry smile.
"You can't blame Romero. He was already swamped just handling communications and radar monitoring."
"That's true, short-handed, I guess... Here."
Mikazuki took out a few dates from his pocket and handed them to Murrue.
Murrue took them with both hands and smiled, saying, "Thank you, and... you worked hard, Mikazuki."
"Mhm, I'm hungry."
"The cafeteria already prepared something for you."

Vesalius
Rau Le Creuset looked at the report on his computer in his room, an unreadable expression on his face.
"Lost...? As expected, but what surprised me most was that Wolf's mobile suit was also equipped with Mirage Colloid. How many secrets does that mobile suit still have?"
To be honest, everything that had happened so far was within his grasp, but the monstrous, unknown mobile suit on the Archangel was completely out of his control.
"No one can defeat this monster in a one-on-one fight. So, to deal with it, can we only rely on numbers to overwhelm it? But..."
But how could that be achieved? After all, in a battle where he deploys multiple Mobile Suits, the enemy will also deploy multiple Mobile Suits. Moreover, the other side also has a similarly powerful Strike Pilot and his old rival, Mu.
So, trying to suppress the Gundam Barbatos with numbers was simply unrealistic.
"Then, what should be done...?"
As Rau Le Creuset was troubled, in a sparsely populated deep mountain forest on Earth, a dark, one-eyed mobile suit, much larger than a regular Mobile Suit, emitted a hoarse voice that sounded like man and machine merged into one.
"Crank... Lieutenant..."
Back in space, on the Archangel.
They successfully rendezvoused with the Eighth Fleet. The Gundam Barbatos in the hangar was completely transparent. As long as no one idly crashed into the bay where the Gundam Barbatos was stationed,
even Luna wouldn't see the Gundam Barbatos. Of course, everyone on the Archangel was given a gag order by Murrue regarding the Gundam Barbatos.
The crew members weren't fools; they understood the gravity of the situation and kept their mouths tightly shut.
As for the data... they didn't even have it themselves, so there was no need to worry about it being taken. Reports were handled by Murrue, who knew what to write and what not to write, and Natarle also turned a blind eye.
On the deck, a small transport vehicle stopped before everyone. The Admiral of the Eighth Fleet, the wise leader known as Strategist Halberton, stepped down from the transport vehicle.
Seeing Murrue and the others, he showed a joyful expression.
"...'It's great, Captain Ramius, and all of you are safe and sound!'"
Murrue (Li Ma Hao) was also happy to reunite with her direct unit. She saluted Halberton and said with a relieved smile,
"Yes, Admiral, we did not fail our mission and finally brought the Archangel back."
Then, everyone exchanged polite greetings and pleasantries.
Mikazuki was exercising in the gym and did not go to the deck. Meeting the so-called strategist was of no use to him; exercising was better.
"Mikazuki, be careful, we have a few tails behind us."
Mikazuki talked with Orga through his earpiece while doing one-handed pull-ups.
"Are those the guys who have been watching the Archangel again?"
