Gundam Seed System

Chapter 30: Confluence

   Seeing the ships of the Eighth Fleet approaching, everyone held their breath.

   From a distance, those ships would only reflect the sunlight monotonously, and even lack realism like toy ships; but when they got closer, the majestic lineup became obvious.

  Earth United Army Eighth Fleet-the fleet led by the wise general Halbaton, is slowly approaching and surrounding the "Archangel". Surrounded by dozens of warships and destroyers, the flagship "Minelaos" approached as if it were a mountain.

  "—Turn 180 degrees, slow down, and then reduce it by 20% to coordinate relative speed."

   "But, does it matter? It's actually blocked from the side of the'Minelaos'."

   The driver Neumann half-jokingly expressed his concerns.

   "Admiral Halbarton probably wants to take a good look at this ship, he will come up in person later."

   Maru said with a smile. The common sense should be that they were summoned to the flagship, but Admiral Halbaton must have wanted to ride on this ship that he had invested in his efforts, he must be both excited and eager now. He is the main promoter of the "Archangel" and the X series development plan. He has a very strong attitude towards this development plan that will affect the future battle situation. He can also be said to be Maru's direct boss.

   After the hull entered the inertial voyage, Maru said, "Excuse me," and then left the bridge.

   "Captain."

   Natal followed and stopped her, and the two entered the elevator together. After the door closed, Natal asked directly.

   "That adjuster boy and Sun Jin from the Republic, what are your plans?"

   "What do you mean?"

   Maru asked inexplicably, and Natal became impatient.

   "Kira's driving skills, and information about the Republic's body that we don't know."

   After hearing her intention, Maru looked at her sternly.

   "—Natal, I understand what you mean. However, Kira is not a soldier, and the Republic’s body cannot move."

   "But! His abilities are precious, and the body is in our hands. Should we keep our eyes open...?"

   "Even if he is very capable, we can't force him to conscript him. Right? And now the consequences of fighting with the Republic are not something we can bear, right?"

   Maru asked deliberately, Natal remained silent, but there was still a hint of dissatisfaction in her eyes.

   "Oh, when I received the news that'Heliopolis' was attacked, I thought it was over! I didn't expect to see you here..."

   A tall, high-pitched general stepped down from the shuttle boat and came to Maru and the others calmly. His physique is sturdy and fine, and he can't feel his age. His lips have short fluffy yellowish-brown beards, and his eyes under his military cap are shining like a mischievous light.

  He is Admiral Halbaton, the commander of the Eighth Fleet based on the moon. Maru led the crew to salute him.

   "Thank you, sir. Long time no see."

  Maliu greeted him happily, and Halbaton also raised his hand in return.

   "The next official is Natal Bucky Lulu."

   "The next official is Mu La Frada, who belongs to the Seventh Mobile Fleet."

   "Oh oh, it's a blessing to have you."

   Halbarton offered his condolences, but Mu just smiled bitterly.

   "No, I didn't really help much."

   The admiral and the officers chatted for a while, and saw Sun Jin and others neatly lined up in the rear.

   "Oh, this is what the intelligence mentioned, you all?"

  Sun Jin first introduced herself

   "Hello, this is Sun Jin."

   "Oh~ you are Sun Xuan's son, um, you deserve his son. I often met with him before the war started, but unfortunately we didn't contact him much after the war started."

  Halbotton patted him on the shoulder with satisfaction when he heard Sun Jin's self-introduction.

   "Hello, this is Frey Alsta."

   Fu Lei then salutes and introduces herself

   "George's daughter, your father has been picked up on the flagship, don't worry."

   "This is Kira Yamato."

   Kira looked at the kindly admiral and said nervously

   "I read the report, thank you for your hard work. Thank you for protecting the Archangel and Assault Gundam along the way."

   Then Miria and Thor also reported their names, the admiral nodded with the same expression, and finally walked in front of Lux and Eunice

   "Hello, Miss Klein, we have already contacted your father, someone will pick you up in a while, and our frigate will send you back "", ah, and Sun Jin, come here too."

   "Okay, thank you very much for your help."

   Laksy salutes slightly, although the Earth Army must have passed some agreement to let her go so easily, but Admiral Halbaton’s friendly attitude still made her feel more at ease and did not embarrass herself.

   Sun Jin on the side heard that she was going to ask her about the intention of the Republic.

   After finishing his condolences, Halbarton looked at them one by one, with very kind eyes.

   "Our army has also confirmed the news of your family. They are all safe and sound and they have all been taken back to Orb."

   Everyone's expressions suddenly became clear.

  "—In such a bad situation, I thank you for working so hard. I also want to thank you.... I hope I can talk with you more in the future."

The word    admiral is both great and terrifying at first glance-Kira thought maybe he was a person three hundred times more serious than Natal, but the impression after seeing it was so unexpected. However, thinking that Maru was working hard for this character, he vaguely took it for granted.

  After Admiral Halbaton and Captain Maru left, the remaining young people spread out while discussing, Miria patted her chest in fear

   "I thought the Admiral would be a serious person like Deputy Captain Natal. It's really nice to be a kind person."

   "Yes, but we are here safely, what will we do next?"

   Thor said curiously

   "It's probably to arrange for you to return to Orb. Although "Heliopolis" did not collapse, it was also greatly damaged. It is impossible for people to live in a short time."

  Frei speculated from the conversation with the admiral just now

   "Archangel" Captain's Room

   Halbarton sat at the table, beside him sat the short and chubby Hoffman, and Maru and the others sat opposite.

   "Sun Jin, your East Asian Republic also has ms in "Heliopolis" and it is driven by you, and you follow the "Archangel", can you give us an explanation now."

   After everyone was seated, the admiral asked Sun Jin straightforwardly. Seeing that the admiral was so direct, Sun Jin didn’t intend to be perfunctory and prepared to speak directly.

"Since ZAFT announced the ms, the Republic has already started the research and development of this kind of humanoid machine. My words may be that I have a talent for this and I will be able to adapt quickly, so I became the driver of the test machine. A natural person who can freely control ms. If the news is leaked in advance, it is not a good thing for me, so my father sent me to the Orb satellite, which is also a neutral country. I wanted to go back after graduation. This machine is also to ensure My safety was sent here because I accidentally discovered that Orb was also secretly developing ms. It was unexpected that the main force was the Earth Army, and my companions were involved in "Strike Gundam". In addition, it was attacked by ZAFT at that time, and for safety, I had to board the "Archangel"."

   "In other words, acting together with us is only your personal will and has nothing to do with the position of the Republic?"

After hearing this, Halbaton directly asked the most critical question now. Now that the war is becoming more and more deadlocked, it is vital for the Earth Army to win the support of a neutral power. What is more concerned about the Republic has long been. A lot of effort has been made in the development of ms. Compared with the Atlantic Federation, he is the only one who promotes the ms plan. There is a nationwide power. UU reading www.uukānshu.com can also see from the previous battle report that the opponent’s ms has already It’s a finished product. Once the Republic decides to join the battle, it’s okay to be an ally. If it’s an enemy, it’s a nightmare. Thinking of this, Halbaton’s decision to report this matter must be drawn to the support of the Republic and look at the grandchildren in front of him. Jin, this boy may be the key to unlock the situation.

   So after a few chats with Sun Jin, Halbarton sent Sun Jin out. Back in the rest area, Kira and the others were bidding farewell to Lux and Eunice. A female officer stood outside the door, who seemed to have picked up Lux and them.

   The girls sat chatting together. Frey and Miria were very reluctant to part, but they always had to part. Eunice walked up to Sun Jin and looked at the boy. She said something that surprised everyone.

   "Can I stay by your side?"

Everyone was shocked when they heard this sentence. Do you publicly confess? Miria’s eyes glowed with gossip. During this time, Eunice had always been a cold-hearted big sister, and everyone spent most of the time chatting together. It was because I couldn’t speak much, and the relationship with Sun Jin was just being defeated and captured by him. No matter how you look at the two people, there is no pink atmosphere. I didn’t expect this to happen. Fulei also looked at Eunice in surprise and saw Sun Jin. I was also at a loss, thinking that these two people should have nothing to do with each other.

   Seeing everyone's surprise, Eunice realized that she had said something wrong and quickly explained

   "No, it doesn't mean that, it was Miss Luxi who asked me to follow Sun Jin, nor was it as a contact person." Hearing that it was Luxi's attention, everyone turned their eyes to her, and Luxi put his hands together and explained in a brisk tone.

   "Because Sun Jin, you don't care that we are adjusters, so it's not good to have Eunice act with you as the liaison of the Klein faction."
