Gundam, Iron Banner

"Any advice?"

"No...that's not what I said. You should also know that Zaft's warship is still following behind. If possible..."

"Want me to help?"

"If the Archangel sinks, you will be in trouble, right?"

"..."

You Bai didn't agree immediately, because he knew how good he was as a driver, he didn't dare to put himself on a certain side indiscriminately.A gentleman hides his weapon in his body and waits for the time to move it.It is absolutely impossible to act recklessly. If you want to join a certain party, you must at least see clearly the nature of war in this world.

So he asked cautiously: "How much do you want me to do? Is it enough to repel the enemy, or is it to annihilate the opponent's ship?"

Mu looked back with a very peculiar gaze, raised his eyebrows and smiled, "You're very confident."

You Bai responded with a smile: "A little bit stronger than you think."

Hearing this, Mu subconsciously put away his smile, and his eyes became deeper and deeper.

"Are you really not an adjuster?"

"If you say, Captain, that you want to group things that you don't understand into one category... sooner or later, you will go astray. Captain Frada."

You Bai bowed slightly and saluted, then walked past the other party and walked towards the cafeteria by himself.

……

At the same time, on the bridge of the Wesalis, Ardis was still in shock.He couldn't help but wait and see the universe around Heliopolis, as if he was worried that the undead over there would entangle him.

"What will happen to us? Destroyed the colonial satellite of the neutral country, the Council over there..."

"Where is the country that helps the United Earth Army manufacture new weapons neutral?"

Next to him, the masked Kruse said the above words in a slightly sarcastic tone.It seemed to him that the battle just now was not a big disaster.

"Anyway, most of the residents have escaped, so what's the problem? At least, it's very different from the bloody Valentine's Day tragedy."

Bloody Valentine's Day is a disaster that happened in the PLANT colony constellation in the past. The United Earth Army used nuclear bombs to destroy an agricultural colony satellite, resulting in the death of 24 people on it.Since it happened on Valentine's Day, the event became known as Blood Valentine's Day.

Adis thought this was indeed the case. Compared with that tragedy, what happened today is really nothing.

But then again, it's really...

Thinking of this, Ardis couldn't help feeling terrified of Kruse, who was so calm in front of him.In his eyes, Kruse's shining silver mask gradually distorted and deformed, becoming something more oppressive.

Just when he realized the sense of crisis, Kruse spoke again.

"Adis, the location of the enemy's new ship, can you catch it?"

"You still want to pursue?"

"I smell danger in it. More than Mu la Flada—"

"what?"

"...No, never mind. Anyway, we must not let that ship escape."

Kruse didn't care about his colleagues' feelings at all. He stared at the space map on the strategy panel and said in a low voice, "Why don't you set up a net."

……

Kira, who was sitting in the restaurant and eating slowly, felt like a muddy mind at this moment, and his thinking became extremely slow.

"Why does Mr. You drive a MS..."

He originally wanted to question You Bai, but unfortunately, the officers on the Archangel didn't make room for the two to communicate.After realizing that the two of them might know each other, he immediately took You Bai to another room to inquire. Kira, who had just returned from a hard battle, was left in the cold and was arranged to stay in the restaurant temporarily.

"Kira, are you okay? Could it be an injury?"

"No……"

Seeing that he was in a bad mood, her classmate, Mili Yalia, couldn't help casting a worried look.Thor, who is sitting next to him, has the same concern.

Feeling the kindness of his friends, Kira's mood became more and more depressed.Because he really couldn't speak, and didn't know how to express his inner sorrow.

Chapter 310: Trouble

The short conversation with You Bai caused a strong sense of irritability in Mu's heart.

In any case, he is a soldier who has experienced wind and rain, and he is quite confident in terms of experience and vision.

However, facing You Bai at this moment, it was as if he had punched the cotton with his fist, and he couldn't use his strength no matter what.

What is going on?

That man obviously looked very young, why did he speak in such an old-fashioned way?And it doesn't sound like a bluff either.

"I don't understand..."

Mu could not help but sigh.

Captain Maru gave him a sideways glance, and said helplessly, "Now is the time when we urgently need power. Whether it's 'Assault' or the machine called 'Heretical', someone must move them. If Captain Flada to drive..."

"Hey, don't be kidding, is that thing a natural person can control?"

"But doesn't he also claim to be a natural person?"

"Don't listen to his nonsense. You saw that boy named Kira modifying the OS. How can a natural person control that thing?"

"..."

Maru's expression became very ugly, and there was obvious disgust in her eyes.

Even though she has a gentle and calm personality, Maliu is a veritable soldier after all, and her impression of the adjuster can be summed up in five words: hateful enemy.

There are many natural people who think like her. Although Maru herself thinks that the adjuster is also a human being, in a certain way, she can understand people's fear of the adjuster.If there are a bunch of people around me who are stronger than me in all aspects, it is almost inevitable to feel emotions such as fear and disgust.

What's more, the enemies he faces now are all adjusters, and even his own people have to rely on the protection of the adjusters.

Because bad thoughts sprouted in her heart, Mario looked at Mu for help, hoping that the other party could say a few witty words to ease the atmosphere.

However, Mu has become silent at this time.

Because he suddenly thought, if the young man just now is really a natural person, how should he deal with himself?

Adjusters, as artificial geniuses, can of course be removed from the society of natural persons.But when a real genius appears among natural people, how will the people around the genius feel?Does a natural person have the right to incorporate him into the adjuster's camp?

"I'm really ugly..."

Mu smiled bitterly and expressed his inner feelings.

And Maru, who couldn't understand the meaning of his words, could only look at him with a strange look.

……

When You Bai arrived at the restaurant, the people inside had almost dispersed.

In order to be able to respond to possible battles in time, soldiers generally eat very quickly.Of course, the only ones left were the civilians who had just been taken in, and Kira who was sitting here unwilling to move.

For Kira's classmates, Yubai's appearance is a big surprise.

"Teacher You...?!"

"Ah! The escape pod that the teacher was sitting in also had a malfunction and was taken back?"

Mirialia and Thor opened their eyes wide and exclaimed.

Only Kira looked at You Bai with a strange expression, hesitated for a moment, packed up the plates and left the cafeteria gate.

In this regard, You Bai is not surprised at all.For Kira, he is probably no different from a liar, right?He talked about amnesia, but actually appeared on the battlefield in a mobile suit.The gap between these has become a heartache, and it is also a helpless thing.

Kira's classmates clearly fail to recognize this.

"Oh, Kira really..."

Mirialia let out a helpless voice.

These young people who have not yet experienced the sophistication of the world have a narrow vision. They can only see the superficial actions of a person, and cannot see through the thoughts and trajectories behind the actions.This point can be described as the gap in age and experience.

You Bai knew this well, he sighed, and after greeting them, he quickly fetched two breads, turned and left.

Maybe it was because You Bai usually acted coldly, Mirialia and the others were not surprised.The two parties are far from familiar, and it would be awkward to sit at the same table to eat, right?

Only the red-haired girl named Fleur next to them kept staring at You Bai strangely.Her eyes were very sharp, as if she saw something extraordinary.It wasn't until You Bai walked out of the gate that he looked back resentfully.

"Why is that man on the boat! He should be an enemy, right?"

Fleur's voice was not loud, but in the empty cafeteria, her sharp voice seemed very harsh.

"Eh?"

Everyone's eyes converged on the same side.

Sei, who is her boyfriend, immediately realized something was wrong: "Fleur, don't say such nonsense!"

"because--"

Fleur was about to explain, but found that the students were all looking at her with strange eyes, so she had no choice but to turn her face away and not mention the topic just now.I thought to myself: Since you all don't believe me, I will confront him later by myself!

……

"Kira, wait a minute!"

You Bai, who had already left, was naturally unaware of the turmoil in the restaurant. He quickly caught up with Kira, wanting to have a conversation with her.

Kira himself is a very gentle and understanding child, but now he is really exhausted physically and mentally, and he doesn't want to communicate with others at all, and his whole person shows an appearance of rejecting people thousands of miles away.

"Sorry...is there anything I can talk about later?"

Hearing this, You Bai stopped in his tracks, frowned and looked at the other party.

It wasn't until the other party got goosebumps from looking at him that he finally said, "What do you think about war?"

"Now let's talk about this...?"

Confusion appeared on Kira's face.

"Then let me be blunt. Kira Yamato, do you want to fight?"

When he said this, the figure of Camus appeared in You Bai's mind.

He is also a young man with great fighting talent. If Kira can take the initiative to participate in the battle like Camus, he can be called an excellent combat power.

But if Kira doesn't even want to touch the battle itself, whether to let him join the battlefield must be a question mark.

At least as far as You Bai saw, Kira was almost overwhelmed by the battle itself.

This is what worries You Bai the most at the moment.

I am already in the vortex of fighting, how can I let new young people fall into such a predicament again?

Hearing this, Kira couldn't help but widen his eyes: "You want me to give up fighting?"

You Bai immediately asked back: "Why are you surprised? It's just getting away from the battlefield, isn't it strange?"

"I--"

Kira froze.

From the beginning of the battle until now, all the adults are urging him to go to the battlefield to fight the enemy, as if that is a matter of course.

Of course Kira also understands that fighting is necessary.This is for myself to survive and to protect other students on board.However, when someone told him that he could stop fighting, the boy fell into a daze instead.

Chapter 310: Persuasion

Should it be said that it was hit?

Kira became bewildered and stood there motionless.

Of course he didn't want to fight, and he couldn't fight.However, the officers around him talked to themselves and pinned their hopes on him, counting on this 16-year-old child to save themselves.

How cruel is it to impose the lives and tasks of a boatload of people on a child?You must know that Kira is an adjuster and can go to the opponent's camp at any time.To what extent will a group of despicable adults twist young people for their own war?

Some people may think that this is the essence of war.

However, You Bai is a soldier who came from another great war.It is precisely because he has experienced wars that he can see more clearly than others, so he understands that young people are the future of the world.

It is true that there are countless fifteen or sixteen-year-old children on the battlefield, but how can that represent correctness?Captain Cobatro once said in a private chat: It is not old people who create the era.You Bai deeply agrees with this.

If you ignore the life and death of young people in order to win the war, it is undoubtedly putting the cart before the horse.

From You Bai's point of view, Kira is now like a child who was forgotten by his parents on the road, and the confusion on his face is almost overflowing, just looking at it makes people uncomfortable.

Kira is an overly soft kid.For a person like him, the war will only push him to the limit, and eventually lead to distortion and mutation of the whole person's life.There are countless such things in history, and it is not a rare thing.
