The Chapter get Retranslated

Because Mikazuki hadn't closed the communication link with the Archangel, his murmur was clearly transmitted into the ears of everyone on the bridge.

Mu said, dumbfounded,

"Whoa, whoa, did I hear that right? Taking out two Mobile Suits with five solid rounds? And one of them is a Gundam equipped with PS armor, is he serious?

Besides, he's too confident, isn't he? It's impossible to take out a GINN with a single smoothbore cannon round."

Not only could they hear Mikazuki, but Mikazuki could also hear Mu's voice. He didn't bother to respond to him, but he also didn't cut the communication.

If the Archangel did anything unnecessary, he could remind them in time. He didn't want to be messed with again like last time.

The GINN, interfered with by the Archangel, indeed charged towards the Archangel. Mikazuki threw the beam boomerang from his left shoulder at the Aegis.

Athrun quickly dodged, and just as he moved aside, he saw Mikazuki's smoothbore cannon aiming at the long-legged GINN flying away.

"No, Kr—"

A boomerang always boomerangs. Before he could finish his sentence, the boomerang he had just dodged spun back from behind him. Athrun helplessly flashed aside to avoid it, and the boomerang's beam blade grazed the Aegis's left arm, cutting a visible seam in the Aegis's red left arm armor.

Meanwhile, Mikazuki had also succeeded. The cannon round accurately hit the third GINN, but the GINN's pilot released its internal cluster missiles at the last moment.

Without needing a reminder, Murrue immediately ordered,

"Quickly shoot down those missiles!"

The Vulcan cannons concentrated fire on the four missiles, but whether it was due to distance or a change in the internal environment of the satellite, only two missiles were destroyed. The remaining two all hit the bridge of the satellite.

After dealing with the GINN, Mikazuki ignored it, moving his muzzle to lock onto the red mobile suit.

"You bastard!"

Athrun furiously piloted the Aegis forward. Right before his eyes, three comrades had died, two of them at the hands of this mobile suit.

Mikazuki calmly watched the aggressively charging Aegis, pulling the trigger of his smoothbore cannon three times without hesitation.

"I told you, solid weapons..."

The Aegis burst out of the explosion's fire, only to be met by a flashing cold blade. The Aegis quickly stopped its thrusters and retreated.

Mikazuki immediately followed up as the anti-ship sword swung empty. Cold sweat beaded on Athrun's forehead.

Although Creuset had mentioned this mobile suit's mobility and strength, this was more than just the mobile suit's advantage; the pilot's reaction speed was also incredibly fast.

Even among Coordinators, no one would have such speed. Moreover, the mobile suit's movements weren't stiff like a machine, but rather like a person moving freely.

It should be known that the larger the movements an MS makes, the greater the pressure on the pilot. The pilot of this unknown mobile suit seemed to bear no such burden.

"What exactly is this mobile suit... damn it."

The Aegis directly transformed into its MA form, intending to create distance from Mikazuki. Mikazuki was slightly stunned to see the red mobile suit transform into a red spider.

"It turned into a spider?"

Mu, who had been watching Mikazuki's battle from the Archangel, almost spat out his drink, his mouth twitching uncontrollably.

"A spider..."

Murrue also looked embarrassed for a moment, but gently reminded him,

"Mikazuki-kun, that's not a spider, it's transforming into an MA.

The Aegis has a transformation function. Be careful, in its MA form, besides enhanced mobility, the Aegis also has..."

Before Murrue could finish, the MA-form Aegis, having gained distance from Mikazuki, fired a high-energy cannon from its central muzzle. The power of this energy cannon was several times stronger than a beam rifle.

Mikazuki understood what Murrue meant. Besides increased speed, there was also a powerful weapon.

But facing this shot, Mikazuki still didn't dodge or avoid it.

Mu cried out,

"He's going to take it head-on? That's too reckless! Scylla (sea monster; 580mm multi-phase energy cannon) isn't a beam rifle! Kid! Don't mess around!"

"Noisy, shut up," Mikazuki mumbled. He raised his anti-ship sword to meet the rapidly approaching cannon round. The laser blade of the anti-ship sword collided with the high-energy cannon round, and for a moment, the two energies were in a stalemate.

"He took the bait..."

A smile appeared on Mikazuki's lips. Holding the sword in his right hand, he extended his left hand and fired the rocket anchor at the Aegis, which was taking the opportunity to charge him.

Athrun's face changed. He hadn't expected Mikazuki, who should have been fully occupied blocking his cannon round, to free a hand to attack him. He instantly realized he had been tricked and was about to retreat when the rocket anchor grabbed his leg.

"Damn it..."

Mikazuki didn't pull him back. Instead, he abandoned the anti-ship sword that was blocking the energy round and rushed towards the Aegis. With one hand and the rocket anchor holding the Aegis, his other hand held the smoothbore cannon, its muzzle pointed at point-blank range at the Aegis's cockpit.

The auxiliary thruster, not properly secured behind him, had long since detached.

Athrun's pupils constricted violently. Did he intend to fire at such close range? Even so, it wouldn't matter. PS armor could withstand solid rounds, so even taking this hit wouldn't cause damage, therefore...

Mikazuki pulled the trigger without hesitation, then immediately released the smoothbore cannon and disengaged his swordfighting equipment, opening his thrusters and retreating at full speed.

Boom, boom.

A violent explosion occurred in front of the Aegis. It wasn't just the explosion of the cannon round, but also the smoothbore cannon, which still contained three rounds, bursting its barrel. The scale of the explosion was enough to rival several high-explosive missiles.
