"Main gun! Fire!"
This was the first time Selman let out a loud roar.
"boom--"
The main gun lit up. At this distance, no warship could escape the attack, and the Minelaos was no exception. The whole body suddenly lit up with flames.
"Does he want to die together!?"
On the swaying bridge, Adjutant Hoffman couldn't help but stand up.
Halbarton, who had been gritting his teeth and saying nothing, gave an order with a stern look in his eyes: "Let the refugee space shuttle evacuate immediately!"
Hoffman's face turned pale when he heard this, and he understood the meaning of this order.
Halbarton shouted as if reprimanding: "It's already reached this point, how could it be shot down like this!"
"The flagship stops all evasive maneuvers! Prepare the main gun - the target enemy warship - fire freely!"
"Main battery reload—target Minelaos—fire!"
"boom--"
Neither side made any evasive moves, dragging their remains and shooting at each other in the universe.
The main gun of the Minelaos penetrated Kamov, and with violent continuous explosions, Kamov was crumbling above the earth.
Captain Selman sat upright in the sea of fire, resisting the severe pain in his legs, and ordered to the remaining crew members: "Maximum power of the engine - target - the Minelaos!"
At the same time, a space shuttle shot out from the "Minelaos" and gradually moved away. Halbarton, who confirmed this, had a hint of peace in his eyes.
Turning around, he gave the last order with cold eyes: "Order—all battleships belonging to the Eighth Fleet! Let the Archangel enter the critical point of descent at all costs!"
The largest flagship of the Eighth Fleet planned to sink ZAFT's enemy ships with it.
Inside the Archangel—
Malu stared blankly at the screen, as if frozen.
The two battleships were covered in scars, their outer armor had burned red under the friction of the atmosphere, but they still kept shooting at each other and getting closer.
This is an attack that sacrifices everything.
Suddenly, a chain of explosions occurred inside the Kamov ship, and the armor was bounced high by the explosive force inside.
The scattered fragments drew parabolas in the atmosphere but were burned one by one.
"Next, it's up to you—"
In the bridge where the sea of fire was raging, Selman sat on the command chair on the Kamov bridge and slowly closed his eyes, disappearing forever in a violent explosion.
In the end, Kamov still failed to get close to the Minelaos.
But - enough is enough.
Although the Minelaos was barely holding on, its outer shell was being cut and burned by the thin air.
"The future is left to you——"
In the shrill bridge, Admiral Halbarton seemed to have thought of some beautiful picture, and closed his eyes with a smile.
The engine has lost its ability to escape Earth's gravity.
In this case, no matter how powerful the engine is, it cannot take this huge flagship out of the Earth's gravity range.
Its fall is doomed!
"Admiral Halbaton..."
Looking at the gradually broken and burning Minelaos, Malu stood up from the command seat and slowly stood at attention and saluted.
Tears blurred her vision, and Halbarton's last free and easy smile lingered in her mind...
I will definitely convey your thoughts!
"Captain Selman—!"
Nigel's distressed cry came from the loudspeaker.
Aslan was stunned for a moment in the world full of broken bodies, staring blankly at the two burning warships landing.
So much so that Aslan ignored the return order from the Fesalius.
There was only one thought in his mind, no matter what the reason, humans could not justify such a huge sacrifice.
"War...eh~"
Noel thought about the decision he made and slowly closed his eyes.
War is cruel, war is bloody, war... must end, and it must be a thorough and real end!
"Yitzhak!"
Suddenly, Diaka's exclamation came from the communication device.
"Does this guy want his life?"
Noel came back to his senses and looked at the radar. At this time, the Duel Gundam and Strike Gundam were already within the critical range of the earth's gravity.
If this continues, both of them will be dragged down by the earth's gravity!
But at this moment, Yitzhak was completely stunned, completely ignoring the alarms that kept coming from his ears and the order of the Fesalius to return to the ship.
There was only one thought in his mind at this time - even if it was just a strong attack, he must be allowed to crash here!
The Duel Gundam kept attacking and attacking, almost completely abandoning defense.
In the face of the crazy duel, Strike Gundam still had a trace of sanity, and just retreated while fighting back.
"This guy is really desperate for his life!"
Noel looked at the attack and duel that were about to reach the critical point. He cursed angrily and drove Gates over, saying: "Diaka, Aslan, come here and help!"
"clear!"
"What a bunch of desperate guys!"
Diaka cursed and rushed over after Aslan. Although he was not very happy with Yitzhak, he couldn't just watch Yitzhak and Noel crash.
Soon, Noel drove Gates to the critical value of his own engine power. If he walked a few meters further from here, Gates' engine thrust would make it impossible to come back!
"What are you going to do?"
Aslan came to Gates' side, and couldn't help but feel nervous as he watched the two men fighting fiercely below.
One side is his best friend, the other side is his teammate——
Under this situation, Aslan's thinking couldn't help but slow down.
"Of course I drag him..."
Noel said as he suddenly turned his eyes from the corner of his eye, and a space shuttle came into view, and the direction it went in happened to be right in the middle of the attack and the duel!
At this time, the Duel Gundam rifle has been set up——
"don't want--"
Kira also discovered the space shuttle, shouted and activated the fine-tuning thrusters, and rushed towards the space shuttle desperately reaching out to grab it.
Through the optical image, he could even see that little face leaning against the window on the side of the space shuttle, trying to look out!
歘——
The green beam shot out from the beam rifle——
Floating over the space shuttle——
"!!!" Kira was stunned as he looked at the slowly falling, complete space shuttle.
"Noel! What do you mean, kid!?"
Yitzhak looked at the hook that suddenly appeared on his shoulder, cursed and looked behind him. He followed the chain and saw the Gates driven by Noel.
"That's a civilian! You bastard!"
Noel's voice sounded in the communicator, and then he pulled the hook hard.
"Noel! You..."
As Yitzhak roared, his hook pierced the Duel Gundam's shoulder.
However, Gates' engine power is not enough to pull the Duel Gundam up, and it even tends to be dragged down by the Duel.
"Kira! Give him a kick for me!"
Kira, who was still in shock, suddenly heard a familiar voice from his channel, interrupting his thoughts.
"No...Noel!?"
"Noel! What do you mean? Let me go!"
As he spoke, Yitzhak gritted his teeth and activated the duel propeller, trying to break free from the shackles of the hook.
"Bang~"
However, as soon as his engine spewed out steam, it was shut down by a green light.
"What!?" Yitzhak was stunned because the attack seemed to come from behind.
When he turned around, he happened to see Diaka put away his gun.
"Diaka! You..."
"You really want to die and don't take us with you!"
Diaka was also very angry today. If it weren't for the fact that he couldn't kill his teammates, he would have wanted to shoot Yitzhak!
"Drag him up!"
Noel said, throwing down the other claw and locking the Duel Gundam's other shoulder.
"Kira Yamato! Kick him as hard as you can!"
"boom--"
As soon as Noel finished speaking, he flew forward and kicked Yitzhak directly on the cockpit. This kick was full force!
Then it fell downwards by anti-gravity.
At the same time, the four airframes in the sky worked together to pull up the Duel Gundam that kept screaming in the communication device.
