“This is—Alaska?”

"Archangel?"

"As you can see, this MS is exactly the one that appeared in Alaska." Murtagh Azrael replied slowly.

"What do you want to say?" One of the East Asia leaders couldn't help but frown and asked.

Do you really think they don’t know about Alaska?

"Don't you think it's strange? How can a mobile suit have such terrifying firepower and speed? Its energy source..."

Murtagh Azrael did not finish what he said, but it was enough. After all, there were no fools here.

As Murtagh Azrael's words fell, the conference room fell into a dead silence.

"This mobile suit and the mobile suit that left the name of the Red Death in the Battle of Panama are both products of ZAFT."

Murta Azrael is pleased with the atmosphere.

"Then what?" One of the leaders couldn't help but ask. He didn't believe that Murtagh Azrael would come up with such a thing for no reason.

"Unlike the mobile suit parked at the Kapantalia base, this mobile suit is in Orb."

The expressions of everyone in the arena froze when they heard this, and they all saw the twinkling light in each other's eyes.

"So, I think neutrality is almost enough."

After Murtagh Azrael finished speaking, he put his hands on the conference table and asked quietly: "What do you think?"

The leaders were silent after hearing this, and their eyes couldn't help but drift towards the leader of the Eurasian Federation in the distance.

In fact, in general, the only ones qualified to compete with the Atlantic Federation are the Eurasian Federation and the East Asian Republic. However, the East Asian Republic has always been transparent.

So only the Eurasian Federation remains.

"What do you want to do?" the leader of the Eurasian Federation asked.

Not to mention that our own forces were severely damaged due to Alaska, and it would be difficult to break up with the Atlantic Federation in a short time.

A single nuclear power machine is enough for them to agree.

How important nuclear weapons are can only be understood by those who have lost and been beaten.

June 1st.

The Earth United called for an "either self or enemy policy" against the neutral Equator United, the Republic of Scandinavia, and the Orb United Chief States.

The Earth United uses the media to carry out large-scale propaganda operations against the public.

Behind the scenes, governments are almost threatening to join the coalition.

June 13th.

The Fourth Atlantic Fleet of the Atlantic Confederation went south, demanding that Orb remove Ashar's representative, and that the Orb Council immediately dissolve and give up all force.

Limited time - 48 hours.

At this time, in the conference room of the Orb Executive Yuan, the leaders had gathered, including the current representative Homra. Everyone was stunned by the notice sent by the Earth United Army.

"Ultimatum?"

Uzumi roared, his eyes full of astonishment.

Homra read aloud word for word with a sad expression, saying: "The Orb-United States failed to take into account the current world situation, blindly gave up its obligations as an Earth country, only pursued its own freedom and tranquility, and repeatedly refused to assist us. The United Earth Army On behalf of its member countries, we hereby announce the following requirements—"

The strong wording in the article made Uzmi angry.

"One: The current regime of the Austro-Burmese Joint Chiefs of Staff will resign immediately."

"2. Disarmament or disbandment——"

"What?"

"What bullshit!"

There was an uproar among the leaders immediately.

This is simply——

"The Orb Joint Chiefs must accept the request within 48 hours, otherwise the member states of the United Earth Army will regard the Orb Joint Chiefs as a ZAFT supporter - and they will not hesitate to use force to suppress it..."

After listening to the Earth United Army's document, the conference room fell into a dead silence.

Isn't it just like--

This is simply a letter of surrender with a strong sense of declaring war.

"What kind of farce are they making!" It was Uzmi who roared angrily, breaking the cold silence in the room.

Listing those many crimes is just to legitimize his own camp. This kind of statement——Tani Yu

"After losing Panama, did they not even care about the face of the United Earth? Damn Atlantic Federation!"

Uzmi's anger is understandable, and this obvious behavior is simply a naked insult.

However, as soon as Uzmi finished speaking, a leader announced a fact with a solemn face: "The coalition fleet has sailed to the South Pacific."

"What they want is actually the mass projection device and the Dawn Society..."

Homra put down the document in his hand weakly and raised his head to look at his brother in front of him.

The Union Army is determined to take down Orb this time. In this case——

"But so what if it's unreasonable? It's useless for us to protest. No country on earth dares to defy the Atlantic Federation..."

The leaders spoke as if they were about to give up.

"The Eurasian Federation is already exhausted, and originally neutral countries such as the Equator Federation and the Kingdom of Scandinavia are unable to implement their positions and have announced that they will join the federation..."

Not to mention that the Eurasian Federation lost too many troops in the previous Alaska campaign.

Just say that it is an ally of the Atlantic Federation, and it is impossible to speak out for Orb.

Except for the Eurasian Federation, the remaining neutral countries were not strong enough to compete with the Atlantic Federation, and had to join the alliance under pressure.

At this time, a leader spoke, as if he had made a decision, and said: "It's time for us to make a choice..."

Choose a natural person...or an adjuster...?

The chiefs exchanged desperate glances.

This is the helplessness of neutral countries, or neutral countries with insufficient strength.

"Cabetalia Base learned of the situation and called to request talks..."

A man in charge of communications stood up and said to everyone.

"Hmph! Is the enemy of my enemy my friend?"

Of course, ZAFT couldn't sit idly by. After all, they had spent a lot of time conquering Panama and completing their plan to blockade the United Earth Army.

Orb's movements at this time are very likely to cause this plan to fail.

Moreover, Orb is also one of the few adjusters on the planet to live in. There has been constant communication with Plant off the table, and Plant will always call us regardless of circumstances or reasons.

Besides that, there is another reason.

Once the Union Army obtains Orb's outstanding technology, the plant will definitely be filled with hatred.

"The Atlantic Federation wants to split the world into two by any means necessary! Either an enemy or a friend!"

"Should Orb abandon his own ideals and laws, obey their orders, and fight against their so-called enemy country?"

During Uzmi's questioning, the leaders just looked melancholy and said nothing.

They also don't appreciate the Atlantic Federation's approach, but the current situation does not allow them to make more choices.

Some of them wanted to settle the matter, but when they thought about the safety of the people and the fate of the Atlantic Federation, this idea————

"Assisting the Union will be the enemy of the Plant, and cooperating with the Plant will be the enemy of the Union——"

Uzmi's words added to the confusion of the chiefs.

"Succumbing to the alliance at this moment can only avoid today's war, but tomorrow we will become the second Panama! Once the camp is decided, neither side will be able to avoid the war!"

Everyone present understands this truth.

Even if we join the alliance today under pressure, we still cannot maintain this peace.

ZAFT will definitely come and destroy the mass projection device, but if you choose to join the plant...

"We know, but..."

Orb's military strength is not weak.

Therefore, countries all over the world have never dared to provoke rashly, for fear of losing their wives and losing their troops.

But if the Earth Alliance or ZAFT really want to attack with all their strength, Orb will be unable to resist.

No matter which path you choose, you will eventually be led to destruction.

The leaders looked gloomy and didn't know what to say.

Finally, Homla broke the silence.

"...No matter what, issue an evacuation order first."

"Representative Homla..."

This is an announcement to the people that the critical moment of fate is imminent.

Our country...is about to fall.
