Chapter 1772 Unexpected Events!
After many years, the old rivals clashed again on the battlefield, shocking everyone who witnessed the battle.
Before Amuro arrived, no one could stand a single round against the rampaging Red Rick Diaz, not even the Titans Gundam test pilots who had been selected through multiple rounds of trials.
Even the Gundam MKII, which boasts performance far exceeding that of the GM, could only flee in disarray, constantly being forced to call for help from the command center by the Red Rico Diaz.
Such a powerful and terrifying existence, the moment Amuro piloted the Zeta Gundam onto the battlefield, instantly turned the one-sided battlefield situation back into a close and evenly matched battle.
"Is this the strength of Amuro Ray, the hero of the One Year War?"
After guiding the Gundam MKII Unit 2 to safety, CIC stared blankly at the battle scene on the screen.
"Hey! What are you doing? Why aren't you calling for reinforcements? The reinforcements sent by the Punishment Army are about to collapse."
Just then, a stern voice rang out from behind CIC.
That was Jamaica Dahanning's voice.
CIC was startled and quickly lowered his head to continue communicating with the arriving reinforcements, fearing that Jamaica Daningham would catch him red-handed once again.
After CIC's distraction, Jamaica Dahanning turned to look at Basque Om.
Clearly, his superior's expression gradually darkened as Amuro and Char fought.
Before Amuro Ray arrived, the Titans' pride and joy lay in their elite pilots, all handpicked from Earth, who were no match for Char Aznable, the Red Comet. Only after Amuro Ray's arrival was the situation barely stabilized.
This situation is practically a slap in the face to the Titans, completely shattering their long-held ideals of Earth's elite, which have been repeatedly trampled upon by Char Aznable and Amuro.
"Colonel Om, our reinforcements will be here soon."
Knowing what Basque Om was thinking at that moment, Jamaica Dahanning offered words of comfort.
"Hmm! Let's prepare to capture the Red Comet! I want to personally interrogate this legendary Red Comet and see what abilities he really possesses!!"
Basque Om clenched his fists tightly and said in a harsh voice.
However, just when the situation seemed to be about to reverse and turn in favor of the Titans, an unexpected piece of news threw the CIC into panic.
"Colonel Basque Om!! There's an emergency in the hangar where Unit 3 is located!"
"What happened? Wasn't Unit 3 perfectly fine in the hangar?"
Jamaica Dahanning sensed something was wrong and quickly asked.
"Yes!! That's right up to now. But while the No. 2 unit was being contained, someone took advantage of the soldiers' momentary lapse in attention, rushed into the No. 3 unit's hangar, and seized the No. 3 unit."
"What?!!"
Before Jamaica Daningham could speak, a loud roar came from beside him.
Jamaica's Daningham looked back and found a dent in the table.
And the one who created this crater was Colonel Basque Om's Iron Fist!
However, at this moment, Basque Om was filled with rage.
"Who is it? Is it a spy from the Valley of Shadows?"
"No!! It shouldn't be... Listen... listen to the soldiers' replies, it sounds like a little kid. Someone recognized him as Lieutenant Vidan's son, Camus Vidan."
CIC was startled, shuddered for a moment, and then quickly relayed what he knew. "Camus Bidan?!"
Basque Om was taken aback, somewhat unable to react.
Jamaica Daningham, who was standing nearby, then told Basque Om about what had happened between Brad Noah, Camus Vidan, and Jellette Mesa.
It wouldn't have mattered if he hadn't mentioned it, but once he did, Basque Om was both angry and amused.
"Why does it all have to do with that damn Jellett Mesa?! First Brad Noah, then Camus Vidan, is that bastard deliberately trying to cause me trouble?"
Because of Brad's matter, He Ming immediately made a move, forcing the usually domineering Basque Om to back down.
And now, because of that bastard Jelit Mesa's casual remark at the port, the Titans' newly developed Unit 3, which they've poured all their resources and manpower into developing, has been stolen by that brat?!
"Damn it! Send reinforcements to intercept Unit 3!! As for the Red Comet, let Amuro handle it himself!!"
In a split second, Basque Om quickly made a decision.
Since Amuro was able to stabilize the Red Comet and prevent Char from running rampant inside the Blue Noah, Basque Om took the opportunity to transfer reinforcements to intercept Unit-03.
In any case, Basque Om never guaranteed that he could mobilize reinforcements to support Amro in a timely manner.
Basque Om's move naturally did not escape the notice of the two who were "fighting" against each other.
Amidst the flashing swords and the chilling attacks, the expressions of the two gradually softened from the tense state they had at the start of the fight.
Moreover, Char, who was the first to notice that the reinforcements flying towards them had suddenly changed direction and abandoned their support for Amuro, had Red Rick Dias force back the ZATEA Gundam with his sword and sneered.
"Amuro Ray, it seems your reputation as a hero is quite reassuring! You've already mobilized reinforcements to support you, but then you had them turn back halfway there."
Amuro's eyes flashed, and he snorted coldly.
"It's just a temporary tactical arrangement. Xia, what are you so smug about? The Red Comet, a veteran of many battles, was actually fooled by such a petty trick? It's laughable!"
"Ha! Imprisoned on Earth for years, you haven't learned anything good, but you've certainly learned to be sharp-tongued! Amuro!!"
Amidst Char's cold laughter, Red Rick Diaz swiftly darted through the forest, using the complex and ever-changing terrain to make his movements as elusive as possible.
"Char! All you can do is run away?"
Seeing this, Amuro roared and sent the Zeta Gundam back into MA mode, flying over the forest. He showed no intention of being tricked into the forest by Char's actions. Instead, under his control, the Zeta Gundam quickly gained altitude and fired at the red Rick Diaz, who was changing his movement trajectory back and forth in the forest, from a high position.
Although the beam rifle's firing rate is not high, its accuracy is frighteningly high.
If it weren't for Char's exceptional skills, he would probably have been set ablaze by the ZETA Gundam's beam rifle, just like the trees surrounding Red Rick Diaz.
"Amuro! How about we go outside and have a duel?"
Char looked around and, after confirming that there were no other pursuers, immediately piloted the red Rick Diaz into the air and flew towards the hole they had previously breached.
"What's there to be afraid of?! Char, you won't escape!!"
Thus, amidst Amuro's fierce shouts, the red Rick Diaz in front and the ZETA Gundam behind, while leaving trails of afterimages in the air and among the artificial clouds, continued their "battle" as they flew away from the blue Noah.
Seeing this, everyone in the command center breathed a sigh of relief.
"Amuro Ray drove the Red Comet away..."
