In the year 2061, when Japan had collapsed due to economic policies and an aging population, Japan had become a fat piece of meat for capitalist countries. They scrambled and tore each other apart to seize control of Japan. Humanoid weapons called Ami were brought into the war. Japan's situation became worse than ever. This is Sheibba. He and his group of friends had found the remains of an Ami. The group quickly Took anything still usable and then left. They discussed how to use the parts for various purposes. But Sheibba, who had taken the most, did not reveal
anything. After that, Sheibba was dropped off in front of his house. Just as the group heard about a scuffle between some Japanese people and foreign soldiers, Sheba didn't care and walked into the house. Because in this era, being born Japanese was no different from being Jewish. They were looked down On. And even with talent or money, it was still difficult to find a job. Sheba asked himself what the point of living was. Feeling disheartened, Sheibba went up the mountain again to look for something. This time he went alone without inviting the other three because he
didn't know their names or where they lived. He only knew them through a group of robot enthusiasts. For him, having a relationship like that was good enough. Sheba then went to retrieve the parts From the amii he had hidden earlier. He wandered around until evening before going home. At that moment, he heard someone crying for help. Curious and afraid, Sheba pulled out his military shovel and slowly approached the source of the sound. Behind the leaves was a box. It made a sound and introduced itself as Guy, an artificial intelligence with its own consciousness and life.
Sheba didn't want to get involved in trouble, so he was about to Leave. But Guy guessed his thoughts, scolded him, and even knew that he had hidden the communicator from the Amii. Guy begged Sheba to save it because its battery was running low. Then it suddenly told him to run because someone was coming. A military vehicle then approached. They found Sheba and questioned what he was doing at this hour. Sheba calmly replied that he was camping. They didn't believe him since this was a site where an amii had fallen After a battle and they had
detected equipment theft. Two soldiers asked to check Sheba's ID. He was an orphan living off his inheritance and government support. Even with a clean record, they still pinned him down and checked his backpack. When they found nothing, they let him go. Once things settled, Sheber returned to get Guy and brought it to an abandoned factory. This place had already been secretly claimed by him, and behind the security door was An Ami. He began charging Guy's battery. The AI was curious, had he assembled the Ami alone. He told the story of how he had discovered the
factory like it was some kind of ruin. When he went inside to check, the tools were still there. It had taken Sheibba quite a bit of time to unlock the secret room. And when he opened it, the MI was already lying inside. However, the thing had a strange structure as it was missing the central control device. Sheba had been studying It up until now. It was the only joy he had left in this fragmented world. Guy expressed admiration for Sheba's passion. Suddenly, it asked a question that Sheba had never thought of before. or what would
he do after the MI was up and running. He remained silent in response to that silence. Guy said it was fine even if he did it just out of interest because back during the border wars, people still bought drinks and popcorn just to watch two robots fight. It was all for their personal interests and enjoyment. Sheba cut him off. He activated a signal jammer before leaving, leaving Guy to charge there. When the door closed, Guy began to act. It scanned the entire factory and controlled the machines to start preparing something. It had been 3 days
since Sheibba had left. The continuous rain made him very anxious. He was afraid that Guy would drain all the electricity in the factory. The next Day, the military caught Sheba's group of friends while they were trying to modify a vehicle using MI parts. The commander considered all three to be terrorists and presented a photo of Sheba, demanding they provide information if they didn't want to die. Meanwhile, while Sheibba was repairing his headphones, Guy picked up the signal and urged him to run from the house just as the soldiers stormed in. Not seeing him, they immediately
started checking The nearby security cameras. Sheba ran to the factory and saw that the amii had been completed by Guy. But he wasn't allowed to be surprised for long because the soldiers had arrived. Through the cameras, they saw two Oceananian Mecca's and Sheibba's three friends had been taken hostage. The commander demanded Sheba come out, suspecting him of being part of a terrorist organization. The three tried to explain that they were just city boys who liked modifying Vehicles, but he wouldn't listen and pointed his gun at them, forcing Sheibba to come out. Sheba was about to
do what he said. But Guy spoke up. Did he want to be captured and spend the rest of his life in prison? Or would he resist and find a path through hardship, except being a fish trapped in a cage, or be a fish that leaps over the dragon gate and becomes a dragon? If he believed in it, then pilot this. Without hesitation, he chose to pilot the MI with Guy. When the Commander didn't see any movement, he began firing. Shea entered the MI and inserted Guy like a key. After a few seconds of analysis, the
MI was identified as Kenboo. The retinal scan process began, and Sheibba could now see everything outside. Guy appeared in a cuter form. After a bit of getting used to the cockpit, Sheibba transformed the MI into humanoid mode. Following Guy's instructions, Kenboo charged outside, surprising everyone. Sheba flew in and Punched one ami, then grabbed it and threw it into the other one. However, the enemy still fired back, forcing him to retreat and take cover. They continued to unleash bullets, putting him in a tough spot. One enemy unit jumped from behind, forming a pinser attack on Kenbu.
At this point, Guy told Sheba to use the finishing move. With blazing eyes, it demanded Sheba shout the name of the move as cooly as possible. As both enemy mis charged in, Sheibba shouted iron cannon blast and used his weapon to pierce one unit. He quickly grabbed the one attacking from behind and smashed its arm into the other. This was the first time Sheba truly felt alive. Immediately after, a soldier took Sheibba's three friends as hostages and demanded he surrender. Seeing this, Guy told Sheba that it had it covered. It then changed its tone and
said that those three were just tools for Sheibba, that he had used them to Gather the parts to repair Kenbu, and now that it was complete, they were no longer useful. Guy even insulted the commander to his face, saying he had lost track of the real terrorists and instead arrested and punished innocent civilians. How shameful. After saying that, the two of them left. Following that bold provocation, the two now had to live in hiding like this. That night, Sheibba stopped to inspect Kenbu. He checked his phone and saw he was now Wanted for terrorism. But
being too hungry, he didn't care. She asked what they needed to do next. Guy said they had to cross the Sedto inland sea and head to Okayama. That area was outside the control of the Oceanian military, so they would attract less attention. But even if they were still pursued, they would just live in exile. That sounded reasonable. So Sheibba took a nap to regain strength. The next morning, Sheibba had to camouflage Kenboo because Earlier Guy had informed him that it needed to rest after processing a massive amount of information in one day. It needed sleep
to avoid overloading. Once the camouflage was done, Sheba went to find something to eat because he hadn't eaten anything since yesterday. He approached a garden full of vegetables and thought to himself that since he was already being hunted like a criminal, committing a little more crime wouldn't matter. So he Went to the garden and picked a tomato. Just as he was about to take a bite, the owner of the garden showed up, holding a sickle, scaring Sheba into bowing deeply and apologizing. The owner looked at him silently, then said if Sheba helped him, he'd give
him food. After that, under the kind farmer's guidance, Sheibba harvested many kinds of vegetables. By noon, he got to eat cool tomatoes that had been soaked in a stream. After eating, the farmer asked him to help Plant seeds. They worked until the afternoon. But Sheba didn't feel tired. In fact, he felt happy with these new experiences. It made sense since he had always lived in the city. So, experiences like these were very precious. The farmer having seen it all invited Sheba to his home. His wife came out to greet him and the farmer asked her
to prepare a meal for their guest. She happily agreed and told Sheba to take a bath first after bathing. He was Treated to a grand meal by the couple. Sheba didn't hold back and began eating. When he took the first bite, his tears fell unconsciously because it was completely different from the taste of fast food he always ate. It made Sheba feel genuinely happy. After finishing the meal, Sheibba drank tea to rinse his mouth. At that moment, the TV broadcasted a wanted notice for Sheibba and in his speechless confusion. The old man said that he
once had a son, but Unfortunately, he died while participating in the border war. The two of them had promised each other to go fishing together when he returned, but it seemed that would never happen. That boat had been left unused until now. The old man said that if Sheba needed it, he would give it to him. He knew clearly that Sheba wasn't a terrorist because no terrorist would bow down and apologize so meekly in the field after getting caught stealing food. On the contrary, Sheibba even helped him tend the garden. The old man said that
in such chaotic times, one must not lose faith in people so he would give Sheba that trust. He also assured him that as long as Sheba stayed here, nothing would happen to him. Emotions surged in Sheba upon hearing those words. He kept thanking them to dispel the awkward feeling. The old woman said she'd go check if Sheba's laundry was done. Sheba offered to help and just then the doorbell rang. The old Man told Sheba to hide, then stepped out to meet the town's police chief who had come to check if any terrorists were hiding here.
The old man with a determined gaze firmly stated that there was no one here. Still the officer spotted Sheba's shoes, but because of the old man's credibility. The officer turned a blind eye. That night, Guy contacted Sheba. It had heard everything and also knew the officer had ignored the matter. However, both it and Sheba Knew that the old couple would be in danger if he stayed any longer. So the next morning, he left with a farewell letter. First, he expressed his deep gratitude for being taken in, thanked them for the meal and their warm words,
and also asked for permission to borrow the boat. Once everything settled down, he promised he would return. In addition, Sheibba made the house look messy as if the couple had been attacked by him to prevent suspicion. Then, Sheibba connected the boat to Guy, and the two began their journey. Even so, Sheibba still felt uneasy as more and more crimes were piled onto him, things he hadn't even done. Guy confidently said it was fine. No matter how many crimes were blamed on him, as long as the truth came out, it would be resolved. Hearing that, Sheibba
felt relieved and departed. Guy informed him that in just a few minutes, they would reach the other shore. But ahead was the Border war zone, a brutal battlefield. Before they could prepare, Guy announced they were surrounded by Asian military forces who had set up an interception formation. Guy scanned the entire battlefield and confirmed there were at least 12 enemy matches. It was too late to flee, so the only option was to charge forward. Guy said that Sheibba had already taken down Oceanania if he defeated Asia 2. He'd be a hero. Though it wasn't what Sheba
wanted, the chance To fight fired him up. As the Asian forces opened fire, Kenbu leaped into the air, landing on a broken bridge nearby as calculated by Guy. The two pressed forward. Kenbu charged and took down one ami and Sheibba used it as a shield pushing both into the water. The thrill surged through Sheba and he charged forward again taking out two more amis. The enemy commander was astonished by Kenbu's agile movements. Guy identified four enemies firing from A distance. Kenboo dashed over, kicked two away, and grabbed a rifle to shoot at another charging amii,
but the weapon required identity verification and couldn't be used. No problem. Shiva slammed the rifle's handle into the AmI's head. However, more reinforcements arrived and they were surrounded on four sides. Guy calculated an escape route. It detected a highcapacity battery nearby. If ignited, it would explode. Taking advantage of the enemy's gunfire. Sheibba had Kenbu throw several battery packs into the rain of bullets, triggering a massive explosion. Using the fire as cover, the two of them made a break for it. However, the Asian forces continued firing, hitting Kenbu's leg and immobilizing it. They quickly surrounded and
restrained Sheibba, then unleashed a hail of bullets on the cockpit to destroy it and kill him. But Kenboo was too tough for the first barrage to break through. The commanding Officer continued to order fire until Shea was killed. But just as they were about to shoot again, a sniper from afar took down one of the Amii. The Asian army immediately became alert. But the distance across the mountain range had completely locked their targeting. Each bullet fired took down one MI. And once all had fallen, the pilot from the other side contacted Sheba, providing him with
a location he needed to go to and giving him a password. Then that pilot fired Two smoke rounds to create a chance for Kenbu to escape. These were special interference smokes, making it impossible for the Asian army to track Sheibba's position. After that, Sheibba met his rescuer. thanked him and introduced himself also introducing Guy. However, Guy showed irritation upon seeing that there was another AI similar to it here. The other pilot's AI also greeted them. The four then boarded a transport vehicle and departed. The Other AI introduced itself as Kay and the pilot was Gashin.
Guy began scanning the surroundings to determine where they were going and Kay explained that this road was built before the border war. It was a leftover from a highway project, privately funded and constructed in secret so the enemy wouldn't know about it and they could travel safely. Then it was Sheba's turn to ask who Gashin was with a curt and reserved demeanor. Gashin explained that the Japanese were Piloting Ama and forming their own army with the aim of restoring Japan. Gashin called their organization Yadagarasu. Guy remarked that Sheibba had encountered real terrorists. She was then
taken to Yata's camp where he met the maintenance workers. Though they called him weak and effeminate, they still agreed to repair Kenbu. Then another person arrived, introducing herself as Risa. She led him to meet the captain of Yatada's second unit, Cumi. After a brief introduction, Kumai asked Sheibba a few questions that sounded like an interrogation, asking whether he had comrades or assembled Kenbu himself, and even asking if Guy was programmed by Sheibba. Although a bit taken aback by these questions, Sheibba calmly answered. He found Kenbu already assembled and just set it up and repaired it,
not even knowing if it would work. As for Guy, he found it in the forest and it happened to activate When he inserted it. After some discussion, Cumi declared that Kenboo was Yata's property. It had a pair of sibling units designed based on the concept from an Ami named Johan, currently operated by Gashin. Kamui added that the reason Sheba couldn't activate it the first time he saw it was due to a missing part which was supposed to be delivered to Kenbu but the pilot and AI transporting it were attacked resulting in Kenbu remaining dormant Until
Sheibba came along. After all that guy angrily asked if Yada was planning to take Kenbu back however Kamui said that would be too unfair to Sheibba. So the second unit captain offered him a better deal join them. They weren't terrorists like the news claimed. They were a revolutionary army, not extreme in their actions, thus not terrorists. Moreover, since Sheibba could repair and fight with Kenbu, they saw him as a good fit. Sheba hesitated, knowing that Joining them would mean he'd have to kill people, Gashin got angry, saying Kenbu wasn't a toy, it was a weapon
of war. He then showed Sheibba a video of many Japanese civilians being massacred and pointed out that Sheba held in his hands the power to save them, yet still hesitated like a coward. Seeing Sheibba's unconvincing face made Gashin storm out in anger. Camui asked Sheibba to forgive him, explaining that Gashin's father had once had the determination to Restore Japan, but he died before fulfilling that goal. Gashin's rough attitude came from his desire to realize his father's will as soon as possible. Returning to Sheibba's decision, Camui said it was fine, even if he refused they could
help him regain his citizenship, return to a normal life under a different name and identity in exchange for returning Kenbu. After hearing all the terms, Sheibba went silent, then said he would think it Over. He went outside and sat alone. At that moment, Rhysa came to talk with him. Sheba asked why she had joined the revolutionary army. She told him that she once had a family, but they all died in a traffic accident and the vehicle responsible was a military transport from the Asian army. Thanks to diplomatic immunity, they were declared innocent and even reversed
the blame onto her family for causing damage to the military, demanding compensation. Thinking back on it still fills her with resentment and she's certain that there are plenty of people in Japan who feel the same way. That's why she joined the movement to revive Japan and so did everyone here. But Sheibba had no such reason to join. His parents died of illness unrelated to the military. At first he thought assembling Kenbu was just a hobby. But when fighting alongside Kenbu and Guy, the feeling of metal clashing made his body surge with Excitement. However, when he
faced death up close, he was overwhelmed with fear and withdrew into himself when recalling that moment. Then, a gentle touch of reassurance came from Risa. She honestly admitted that she had been sent to persuade him to join Yada. But she reflected that if her own little brother were in the same position, she wouldn't be able to encourage him. Either she would have told him to run far away and live a peaceful life. She wanted Sheba To value himself more. How can a person be happy if there's no one by their side? Remembering everything he had
been through and the elderly couple, he finally made his decision that night, Cumi reported that headquarters had informed them the Asian military had increased security after they rescued Kenboo so they would temporarily halt the plan to cut off enemy supply lines and return to headquarters. As for Sheibba, Risa wasn't sure if he would Join. While Gashi remained annoyed at his weakness, the next day, Gashi woke him up for training. He showed Sheibba the list of drills they had to complete that day and didn't give him a chance to refuse. He just started the session, forcing
Sheibba to follow along. Meanwhile, Guy was being shown the accessories that would be equipped on Kenbu by Risa. That afternoon, Sheibba was exhausted from training and Gashi told him that this was only the Beginning before leaving. At night, Sheibba lay in bed listening to Guy rambling endlessly about how majestic Kenboo was, but he was too tired and fell asleep. The next morning, he was dragged off for training again by Gashi. That night, he was too worn out to eat, but everyone around him had seen his efforts and cheered him on. Someone even made him a
special drink, and after drinking it, he fell asleep. The next day, he was again called out to train. Meanwhile, Guy watched Kenbu being gradually completed and Sheibba himself was steadily improving. That day, Gashi gave him an early break as Sheba returned to change clothes. Risa called him to see Kenboo. It had been fitted with new armor as well as a sword and cannon mounted on its back. She was amazed by the craftsmanship of the specialists. After discussing a few things with Risa, the two went to a nearby stream to bathe. Risa casually Undressed in front
of him and seeing his embarrassment, she grabbed his hand and jumped into the water with him. The cold stream washed away his worries. After that, they talked. Risa told him that the day after tomorrow, they would leave this place and head to Hiroshima and asked if he had made up his mind. She said he was still afraid of fighting. But after spending time with everyone, he realized they weren't bad people, so he would go with them. he wanted to Learn and fight alongside Kenbu. Risa was overjoyed and patted his head. That night, he told Guy
about his decision. Guy said he would always support Sheibba because Sheibba had saved him. Risa reported Sheba's choice to Camui. The next day, Guy and Sheibba tested the new Kenboo. Thanks to the upgrades and maintenance, it moved faster and more agile than before. With one slash, it sliced cleanly through a large boulder. After the trial run, Sheibba got down From Kenbu and met Gashi. He expressed his amazement at the upgrades and then Gashi took over piloting it. Gashi needed to familiarize himself with Kenbu in case Sheba died and Sheibba should do the same. Then the
two had a practice match using each other's Ami and Gashi's unit named Johan was guided by the Aik. Their friendly match was evenly matched. Even though Guy talked too much and annoyed Gashi, he calmly dodged every blast from Sheibba. Kay calmly advised Sheba to switch weapons more flexibly when his opponent had figured out how to counter him. But Sheibba was worried that if he fought too seriously, Kenbu would get scratched. While he was distracted, Gashi quickly closed in and Kay instantly told Sheba to switch to a shield to defend himself. Right after that, he pulled
out a short dagger and struck away Kenbu's weapon. then pointed his gun at it. But Gashi managed to grab another weapon and slashed Johan's Shoulder. The result of the battle was a draw and Gashi also acknowledged Sheba as a pilot. At that exact moment, the camp was attacked again. They were being approached by a black amii. It targeted the transport vehicles carrying AMA parts and began smashing them. Once finished, it turned its attention to the rebel forces. Just as its massive arm was about to strike down, Kenboo blocked it and the two began fighting, Guy
took note of the Amma's arm, which was Emitting heat. There was no data available on this thing, so they had to be extremely cautious. At the right moment, Sister Risa arrived to assist. She had only managed to fire a few shots before the Ami instantly teleported in front of her and killed her with a single blow. Her sudden death left Sheba in shock and unable to react. Guy called for him to return immediately to avoid another strike from the black amii. Kami contacted them asking both of them to Buy time so he could evacuate everyone.
Meanwhile, Gashi, upon realizing that this was the Ami that had killed his father, launched an attack despite Kay's attempts to stop him. At the same time, his memories surged back on that day. Gashi had asked his father to let him pilot Johan instead of the training match. His father had agreed since there was no sign of danger. But shortly after he left, an emergency alert came in saying that a black ami had attacked his Father's team. When Gashi ran to find him, he saw that the Ami had already killed his father. Gashi, filled with rage,
swore to avenge his father. Kay told him to calm down because his vitals were unstable and that he wouldn't be able to control Johan properly. The black amii swung its weapon at Gashi and Kenbu quickly rushed in to save him. However, Gashin was still in an unstable emotional state and told Sheba to get lost. At this moment, Kamui contacted Him and urged him to cooperate to defeat the Amii. If both of them lost, everyone here would die. Kay also tried to calm him down to stabilize his vitals. The problem was that both eyes, Guy and
Kay, had no data at all on this amii to formulate a combat strategy. The only information they had was that this MI attacked every location it passed. Both the Asian and North American armies had taken heavy damage from it. They called it Ghost. Ghost launched the first Attack with a powerful lightning fast strike that pushed Kimbu back followed by a combo of continuous blows against Sheibba. Gashi provided cover fire. Ghost jumped backward and used a weapon from the rebel army to attack. This shocked Sheibba as it was able to use the weapon without identity verification.
Kay explained that this was what made Ghost so dangerous. In the battle against Gashi's father, Ghost had lost one of its arms, then took the arm From another Ami and made it its own. Ghost kept moving despite being targeted by Johan's aim. Kenbu rushed in to stop it. Gashi got angry and told Sheba to get out of his firing line. Guy retorted that if that's the case, then he better stop missing his shots. Although they argued, they still coordinated well, attacking while retreating and frustrating Ghost. At that moment, Mizuki from the maintenance team called in
to deliver weapons. Gashi locked onto The target and fired a flash round at Ghost, then ran with Sheibba to the designated location. Ghost detected them and immediately gave chase. When both retrieved their weapons, Ghost also arrived. All three readied for combat. Ghost launched the first attack, but Kenboo's heated blade blocked it. Johan provided cover fire. Ghost blocked the shots and accelerated toward Johan. Kenboo ran in to help, but was met with Ghost throwing Johan at him. However, Guy had anticipated this and leapt high into the air. Kenboo switched to a firearm and fired downward. As
Ghost blocked with its arm, Sheibba had already reached it. severing one arm and pinning it down with a stab to the leg. The rest was up to Johan. Gashan switched to armor-piercing rounds and kept firing at Ghost's head. However, even without a head, it was still able to move. It jumped behind Kenbu and pushed him into Johan, pinning them both To the ground. Then, Ghost activated its internal reactor to self-destruct with both of them. The temperature kept rising and Ghost turned from black to red. Neither Sheba nor Gashi could escape, and they both resigned themselves
to their fate. Just then, Kamui brought in artillery support to attack Ghost. He ordered them to aim at its joints. Once they were loosened, Kenbu and Johan broke free and ran for cover. Both waited for Ghost to explode, But it just kept heating up with no sign of an actual detonation. That afternoon, Kimui called the two of them. He informed them that since they had suffered heavy losses in both personnel and weapons, he would return to headquarters first to report the situation. The task of cleaning up the battlefield would be entrusted to Gashi and Sheibba.
They needed to finish before the Asian army arrived. When there was no longer any heat signal, Gashi and Shira went up to search the area. While scanning for heat signatures, Sheibba found the necklace that Rhysa used to wear. He went down to pick it up and burst into tears for her. That night, just as Gashi had predicted, the Asian army arrived, especially that red-haired man. He had the ability to simulate an entire battle just by looking at its traces. He was surprised by Shira's progress in combat and became even more eager to meet him after
Sensing that he had defeated Ghost. Shira was still devastated over Reese's death, and Gashi could understand because he had been through it before. The red-haired man from the Asian military had gathered information about all three MI units and recreated them. Kimbu was the original unit. Johan was a sniper type, and Ghost still had no data available. The redhead could devise counter measures for all three. He knew that Ghost had removed its limiters to Reach such incredible strength. Perhaps the AI inside had evolved on its own. The redhead then called his comrade Ray to prepare an
AI unit for him. The next day, while walking with Gashi, Sheibba thought things through and decided to leave the rebellion because he was afraid of dying. This time, Gashi didn't object and said he would inform Kamui. Since Sheibba was no longer participating, he was no longer allowed to pilot Kenbu. Gashi told him to hide It somewhere and report its location. Before they parted ways, Shira told Gashi to take care. Gashi replied that he would decide his own fate, but Shira shouted that he was terrified of dying and even more terrified of seeing people he knew
die. Gashi told him to stop rambling, saying that cowards had no right to talk about death. Later, Shira hid Kenboo near a stream and left with Guy. When they exited the forest, thanks to Guy, who had overwritten the data on Sheba's ID card and wanted notice, he was not recognized by civilians, Guy asked what he planned to do next. Sheba said he planned to visit Reysa's house and return her necklace. Though he didn't know if anyone was still there, he just assumed she had relatives. Guy had already looked into the accident involving Reese's family, so
he was able to find her address. Sheibba thanked him and they joked together before heading off. Elsewhere, two men dressed like the Red-haired soldier were having a discussion. They had been turning Japanese civilians into criminals and then pretending to punish them, using the excuse to gain merit and glory. They saw the Japanese people as no better than savages. Meanwhile, Sheibba had arrived at the address guy had given him, but the house had been completely leveled. He thought Rhysa might still have relatives and decided to ask around. However, everyone who saw him Avoided him like he
was a curse. While he was confused, a little girl approached and asked if he was Reysa's friend. Then a man with a dangerous expression came up and asked who he was. Sheba introduced himself and showed Reys's necklace. Seeing it, the man took him away. In the car, he told Sheba that Reys's house had been destroyed by the Asian army. Her family was all gone and there were rumors she had joined the rebellion. That was an order issued by The new governor general. Others had faced similar fates. Even their relatives were targeted. It was no different
from oppression. The man then took him to a night diner where Sheba met a group of young people who, according to the man, were Reys's childhood friends. He had called them here to hear news about her. They laughed and reminisced about their memories with Risa. Not knowing the truth, in the end, Sheba had to tell Them. Everyone was shocked. Some couldn't hold back their tears. After all, she was a good person who always helped others just like her nature. They asked Sheba what he would do next. Since he didn't know where her relatives were, he
planned to place the necklace at her family's grave. When he asked for its location, everyone went silent. The shop owner finally spoke up. She knew where it was since it was on a mountain and would take a long time to reach. She Offered to let him stay the night. Shea declined, but everyone wanted him to stay. They even decided they would all go together to visit Reese's family grave. They later held a hot pot party and invited Sheba. Although he was still hesitant, the old man persuaded him to stay. After the meal, Mr. Nose and
his daughter left. While they were talking and crossing the street at a green light. Suddenly, the car of the governor stopped right in front of them. He Rolled down the window and blamed the old man, saying that his clothes got dirty because of him. Meanwhile, elsewhere, the redhead had received a new AmI model. He was so excited that he couldn't wait to drive it and hunt down both Kenboo and Ghost. Speaking of Ghost, it was currently hiding in a cave and repairing itself. The next day, people began to stir over the sudden disappearance of Mr.
Nose and his daughter. When they went to his house, They found all the belongings had been moved. Everything was strangely suspicious. One member of the group spoke up saying he had heard that if someone was targeted by the new governor, they would disappear overnight. Those people all shared one trait. They had anti-government beliefs. Rumor had it they were being sent to the mainland and it was no different from human trafficking. Guy and Sheba heard the entire story and Guy confirmed that What this babbling guy said was true. Guy explained that he had checked all the
surrounding surveillance cameras from the previous night to the present and since no military vehicles had left the city, it meant Mr. Nose hadn't been sold yet. However, Sheba didn't have enough credibility for others to believe him. So, Guy picked a random guy from the group and exposed his darkest secret, making everyone start to believe and agree to go confront the governor to Demand the return of Mr. Nose and his daughter on Gashi's side. He reported Sheba's choice. Kamui sympathized with him and also mentioned that upon returning to headquarters, he would have a new teammate, a
pilot equipped with a frame design based on Kenbu back to the governor. He was discussing profit splits with his accompllices. They planned to sell Mr. Nose into forced labor and his daughter to some perverts. At that moment, a report came in that Japanese citizens were gathering at the gate. Meanwhile, Sheibba chose to stay at the restaurant. News then arrived that the protesters had all been arrested. They were charged with anti-government crimes and taken away. Guy also found that the dispatched vehicles were military trucks sent to clean out the homes of those about to be sold.
Guy told Sheba to leave immediately because they were about to arrive. After ending the call, the Restaurant owner gave Sheba the location of Reysa's family grave and asked him to deliver their regards. As for matters there, they would take care of them themselves. Sheba was then thrown out just before the military arrived. After that, the entire group of Mr. Nose was captured. They were marched down the street and it was announced that they would all be executed for opposing the government. Sheba watched everything on his phone and felt deep sorrow for them. One person was
even shot by the governor without reason. Sheba burst into tears. Realizing how cowardly and weak he had been, always running away and leaving behind those who helped him, Guy spoke up. If you hate yourself that much, why not change and become a better version? He would always be there to support him. With that, Sheba regained his resolve from within the spring. Kenbu's eyes suddenly lit up. That afternoon, just as the people were about to be executed, And guns were aimed at them. A tremor halted everything. Kenbu leapt out and used a shield to protect everyone.
The governor ordered an attack, but those forces were too weak to be called am I. Shea grabbed one and hurled it into another, neutralizing them both. Then he raised Kenboos fist right in front of the governor, terrifying him. This was what true power looked like. The man trembled and begged for his life. Then Guy broadcasted the governor's illegal Human trafficking operation to the entire world. The redhead laughed out loud, exclaiming, "Bravo!" Over and over, Sheibba warned the governor that if he ever touched another Japanese person again, he would visit his home every night. With that,
he left, and Mr. Nose and his daughter were also freed by the people. Early the next morning, Sheibba arrived where Gashi was waiting. He also left Reysa's keepsake at her family's grave. Long ago in a pottery Village, Little Shin followed her grandfather in making wonderful ceramic works under his hands. Everything became refined and exquisite. But one day, the Asian military came to seize their land and workshop. They did not allow her family to refuse. Her grandfather could only watch as the workshop he had built his whole life was destroyed. From that day on, he never
made pottery again. Seeing him like that, Little Shin promised him that one day she would Restore the family's factory. Back to the present, both Johan and Kenboo were in a damaged state with several critical parts broken. Both Guy and Kay also needed to recharge to operate properly. Gashi contacted Mizuki, who really wanted to help but couldn't do much since she was on the move. avoiding the Asian forces while heading back to headquarters. She informed them of the locations of the parts needed for both machines so they could repair them Themselves. Before leaving, Sheibba asked Gashi
what to do next, and he took the boy to illegally siphon electricity to recharge the two eyes. After disguising them so they could rest, Gashi and Sheibba entered the city looking for a place to stay at the hotel. Although Sheibba was a city boy, it was his first time there, so he was a bit confused and was called a country bumpkin by Gashi. He tried to retort, but Gashi told him not to draw Attention. After checking in, they headed to their room. Kay advised both of them to take a bath because they smelled terrible. She
was surprised that even an AI could detect odor, but Kay said even without that, just looking around would tell you everyone nearby was covering their noses. So, as soon as they got into the room, the two of them scrubbed themselves clean. After bathing, they went to eat together. Gashi received a message from Mizuki That the parts had been delivered, so they would begin repairs tomorrow. Hearing that, Sheibba happily started eating. He noticed Gashi didn't eat vegetables and asked about it, Kay explained that Gashi was a very picky eater. So, Sheibba teased him only to be
glared at. Sheibba apologized saying he didn't know Gashi didn't like that kind of joke he had never had friends before so he didn't know how to communicate well. Kay and Guy told him not to worry Saying Gashi was just trying to act tough to hide how fragile he really was. The three of them then started arguing. Meanwhile, the European military after hearing Sheba's provocative speech and receiving a significant blow to both the economy and reputation of Asia began military preparations to confront him. The commander hoped that the flower of war would bloom here in blood
and gunpowder. The next day, Gashi and Sheibba set out to collect the parts. On The bus, Gashi told Sheba to look down at the Japanese city, now under domination with its people suffering oppression and poverty. He said that one day he would reclaim this place. Then the two arrived at a bar where members of the resistance worked. When Gashi gave the correct password, the owner handed over the package to them. The owner, having heard Sheba's speech, also placed his hopes on him. Not long after they left. While the two were talking About responsibility, an explosion
suddenly occurred in the distance at the port. The European army boldly launched an attack on the Asian zone. The Asians retaliated, but not significantly. Gashi and Sheibba blended in with the evacuating crowd to observe the situation. Meanwhile, the Oceanic army fired indiscriminately, not caring about civilians. The two boys arrived at the evacuation center. Gashi saw that the situation was dire for the Asian side And they might stop evacuating civilians and focus on defense instead. Sheba couldn't accept that and wanted to do something. Guy responded to his desire by deciding to hack into civilian devices to
guide the evacuation. Kay and Guy then hacked all the city's display screens and began directing people to safe route. However, it still wouldn't be fast enough because the oceanic army was advancing too quickly. She wanted to use Kenbu for support. But Gashi said That by the time they went to get it and came back, everyone would already be dead. The Asian commander also abandoned the refugees, believing that if the oceanic forces killed civilians, public opinion would turn against them. The civilians tried to leave the building, but were stopped by Asian soldiers. Just then, a wrecked
Asian Ami was thrown into the building. Causing chaos, the Oceanic army steadily advanced toward them. At that moment, another Ami Appeared, moving at incredible speed. In no time, it was in the middle of the oceanic forces. It introduced itself as Masu, claiming to act in the name of justice. After introducing itself, it quickly sliced an Ami in half, then leapt into the air and struck down, using the defeated Ami's corpse as a shield before finishing off three oceanic amis with a single thrust. Then Maseru turned to the Asian forces and took down three enemies in
one sweep. To The astonishment of both commanders, Maseru jumped incredibly high and flew straight toward an Ami artillery unit, taking it down. After that, he flew all over the city, killing any Amii he saw. The maps of both sides lit up entirely in red dots, signaling that their units were being annihilated. With losses reaching 70%, the oceanic forces were forced to retreat. Sheba and Gashi were left dumbfounded as they witnessed the scene. Their mouths a gap just as Guy Announced that this was their new teammate. Having received the summon notice, the two quickly left. in
a forest during the late afternoon. Gashi and Sheibba ventured deeper in and found Masaru. Sheibba greeted first, but the AI on the other side abruptly cut him off. It introduced itself as Angelo with an arrogant tone, expressing its disdain for male pilots and even demanding the two bow their heads in thanks for being saved by it. After berating Gashi and Sheibba for a while, it finally revealed that the princess and her pilot would be their new teammates, and that pilot was Shinn. She descended from the subcommander unit without a word, then suddenly broke down crying.
Afterwards, all three were transported to a nearby yada base. Shinn was the first to apologize for greeting them with tears. She introduced herself and chatted with Sheibba. While Gashi remained cold and gruff, saying little, according to Shinm, that morning's battle was her first real combat experience. Initially, she was just a maintenance worker for yada until Angelo suddenly appeared and told her to become a pilot, and she agreed right away. Angelo was very confident in its ability to judge people. Though, Guy and Kay teased that Angilo was just into girls. The three of them then started
joking and goofing around, giving Gashi a major headache. Meanwhile, the red-haired man named Hardy and his friend arrived to meet their commander. The commander had summoned them because they had located the position of Ghost. It was now confirmed that Ghost was an unmanned machine with an AI featuring independent thinking. The one behind it remained a mystery. Ghost had already taken down forces from North America, Asia, Eurasia, and Oceanania. Highranking officials were desperate to possess Ghost to gain an advantage in the war. Party's superior ordered them to find it and if possible destroy ghosts to prevent
it from falling into another nation's hands. With the work matter settled, the superior moved on to a personal topic. He turned out to be Hardy's adoptive father. He asked his son to come home during the holidays since his mother missed him very much. Hardy agreed and left. However, while in the car, his friend knew well that Hardy would likely bury himself in work during The holidays. Hardy just had too many things he needed to accomplish. Afterward, Hardy dropped by his favorite bakery. The shop owner even gave him extra knowing that the North American Alliance was
trying to restore Japan. Despite the efforts, the reality was that command still belonged to the North American military. Even if Japan regained autonomy, its leadership would still be under North America. Eventually, the entire country might Become a colony. Hardy didn't want the people to rely on other nations. They had to rise up and reclaim what belonged to them. After eating the pastries, the two continued on their way. Hardy opened up. Not that he didn't want to go home, but because he was adopted, and so were the other kids in the household. He couldn't fit in
with them. He could hardly find anything that excited him until his father brought him into the military environment. The first time he Saw an amii, he knew the military was his path. By the time he finished his story, the two had arrived at their mission area. Back to Sheba's group, they had arrived at a luxury hotel to rest. Only now did Sheba raised the question of why their three Amis were so different from the ones in the military. Angelo explained that there was a company called Brenzison, which supported resistance groups from Japan. Officially, its headquarters
were in Europe, but it was just a shell company. No one knew if the company had any sinister goals, but so far everything was fine. As for eyes like them, they were configured by an external agency called IS for intelligence learning system. An autonomous learning system guy seemed to be a special case. Although he shared the same codebase with Kay and Angelo, he was sent to the oceanic region by someone. In any case, they were still considered siblings. When they returned to the room, Sheibba asked Guy if he wondered why he was sent there, but
Guy didn't care because he liked the current situation. Back to Hardy's location, he met two people, Roger and Sophie, who would assist him in eliminating Ghost. However, Sophie voiced her opposition to this mission because she believed that piloting Ami manually was less safe than using unmanned AI units. Hardy explained to his subordinates that if they used Unmanned units, they would need an entire platoon. And since the Asian and Oceanian forces were still looming threats, they couldn't do that. Therefore, Hardy had gathered elite individuals to capture Ghost. And being chosen meant she was highly skilled. Now,
they just had to follow his orders, and Ghost would be no different from a regular amii. If they didn't obey, then he wasn't sure. The next day, Sheibba's group continued their journey to Headquarters. Meanwhile, in the sky, Hardy's team was also beginning their operation. Ghost sensed all four of them from the cave and immediately leaped to the surface. Hardy landed right where it appeared. Ghost made the first move, rushing to attack. Hardy ordered the team to split up and strike from multiple directions. This tactic proved effective as Ghost was struggling. It had never fought against
a team made entirely of manned machines. They needed To destroy it before Ghost adapted to this new combat style. However, it was too late. Ghost focused solely on Hardy's teammate, forcing Hardy to retreat in difficulty. When Roger tried to help, Ghost intercepted the attack and threw Hardy's friend at him. The military fired missiles from the outside, but Ghost emitted a jamming signal that diverted their trajectory. Roger continued attacking and was caught by Ghost. A third arm sprouted from Ghost's back. The black man was forced to sacrifice one arm to escape. Ghost had now fully adapted
to Hardy's tactics and was preparing to crush him. Suddenly, Guy sensed that same killing intent again. Besides Sheibba, the other two, and the AI couldn't sense anything. Guy thought it was just him and ignored it. Back to Ghost, it used chain tipped fingers to directly attack the pilots inside the aircraft. And then, while Roger was off guard, one of the fingers Killed him from the inside. Unable to grieve for long, Hardy quickly calculated a new attack strategy. He and the other two charged in. Sophie and the other teammate advanced ahead to distract Ghost, but both
were bound by threads it had laid underground. Despite this, Hardy kept advancing. When Ghost fired, he dodged by leaning his body and then leapt backward to shoot at its arm joints, but it blocked the shot and tried to counterattack. Suddenly, a bullet dislocated its leg joint. It came from Roger. Though he had died, the AI was still active and completed the mission. Hardy then finished it with a bullet straight through its chest. It collapsed. However, just seconds later, it escaped with a military aircraft. Hardy, furious, swore he would kill it. As for Sheibba's group, they
arrived at headquarters and met Yudu, the representative of Yada. He was glad the Three arrived safely, but said there was already work waiting for them. Someone wanted to meet them. a mediator between the Brenzison company and their organization. He introduced himself as Goel. Gobble proposed a business partnership based on war. Everyone sat down to talk. Gobble cheerfully expressed his desire for long-term cooperation. So long as there was war, his company would have business. He was also generous with funding when needed. Furthermore, Gobel brought many new upgrades for Ami. He then led them to see a
pair of armored grenade launchers for Johan and many other items for Kenbu and Maseru. Later, Yudu received a call and took Sheibba's group with him. They arrived at a village deep in the forest. Then the whole group entered the house of a man named Yuyuji, a longtime real estate agent who was currently living temporarily in this village. He showed them his family genealogy data. Currently, nine people live there. But a week ago, they had lost access to electricity and water. While they were listening, a little girl suddenly ran over and hugged Gashi, calling him dad.
Surprising everyone, Yuyuji asked for their understanding, saying the girl had lost her father at a young age. Back to the main issue. Currently, the villagers are struggling to get through each day after the water and electricity outage. Adue asked why everyone still chose to Stay here instead of leaving. The man explained that their town had gone through war and they had moved to a refugee area, but that place was also shut down, so they were forced to return home. Others shared similar experiences. They wandered until they ended up in this remote village. Though life here
was hard, the war wouldn't reach this place, they traded comfort for safety. After hearing that, Adu said his group would help them as much as possible. That evening, everyone set up camp to stay. Sheba expressed his admiration for Adu's kindness. Gashi said Yada was not just a rebel force. They also helped fellow citizens in need. What was truly needed to rebuild the country was to earn the people's trust. The next day, it started raining. Everyone gathered to discuss how to resolve the village's problems. To ensure the villagers living conditions, they needed to fix the water,
electricity, and food issues. Camui suggested drilling a well, building a water wheel to generate electricity, and cultivating farmland. Everyone started working. Shea and a few others went to loot machinery from old cars. Meanwhile, Adu asked Gobble to sponsor a few items. Gobble agreed since it still made money. Everyone worked busily. Some built houses, some dug the well, and some worked the farmland. By the afternoon, they all sat down to eat together. Watching the children's smile Gave Sheba peace of mind. The next day, everyone resumed their work. While stacking wood, Sheba was called by Shen to
go somewhere. The two went to a tent up in the mountains where there was a kiln. She wanted to repair it. If successful, they could make bread, pizza, and even pottery. Shin also shared that her family had a pottery tradition. Hearing that, Sheibba offered to help her. The two began restoring the kiln. While working, two children came By. Curious, so Shin invited them to join. Day by day, as everyone progressed with their own work. Sheba's group also finished restoring the kiln. They tested it. With Shen's guidance, Sheibba and the two kids made many items like
cups and plates. They only needed to fire and glaze them and they'd be ready to use. Meanwhile, Gashi's side had received the necessary equipment, and all that was left was for the well to bring up water. The water wheel also started spinning to Generate electricity. However, Guy said this alone wouldn't be enough for everyone's needs. Gashi's team also faced a problem. They hit a hard rock layer. Kay scanned the area and estimated the rock was 2 m thick, which would be difficult to break through. But if they could manage, Angelo said water would come out
about 100 L a day, enough for the villagers. Mizuka proposed a method to handle it. Over the next few days, everyone kept working. The water Wheel was upgraded to generate more electricity, but Guy still only rated the power supply as barely enough. Then Kay called the two over to the well. Mizuka had designed a device that combined a laser with a piercing rod. First, they would use the laser to melt through the rock, then shoot the rod to break it. Since the idea was, guys, she forced Sheibba to do it, saying if he didn't, she'd
be mad. With no other choice, he stepped up under guidance From the three eyes. Sheba aimed the lasers into position. Now, all that was left was to pull the lever, but Guy said he had to shout the skill name first. Humoring her, Sheibba yelled, "Ultra drill breaker!" and pulled the lever. Soon after, water from the underground spring started gushing out. They used the water pressure to accelerate the water wheels spin, producing a stable supply of electricity. The lights came on. Things were gradually improving. The Villagers bowed their heads in gratitude. After the trip, Sheibba, Gashi,
and Chen were sent on another mission to buy supplies for the yata members. They had to do it secretly. Looking at the long list, Sheibba had no idea when they'd finished. Just then, an acquaintance recognized Gashi. It was Yuyu. The whole group sat down to talk at the park. Sheba didn't expect Gashi to have a brother. This was also the first time he had seen him smile like That. Kay told the two of them more about Yuyu. Yu used to work at the Yata headquarters together with Kay's parents. But after both of them died fighting
against the Asian army, Gashi's father adopted Yuyu and Gashi cherished him like a real older brother. When Yu suddenly left the organization, it deeply saddened Gashi for a long time. After some heartfelt conversation, it was time for Yu to leave. The two exchanged contact information and then Yuyu left first. When Gashi returned to the headquarters, he took out a photo of himself with his father and Yuyu. Some old memories resurfaced. There was a time when the two of them accidentally got lost in the mountains. Gashi was very scared, but Yu reassured him. Even though they
weren't bloodrelated, Yu always protected Gashi. Those were memories Gashi could never forget. The next day, Sheibba's team tested new equipment. While checking that Everything was in order, Gashi received a message from Yuyu. He was overjoyed. That is until Yuyu invited both Sheibba and Shin as well. Yu brought all three of them to the Japanese city he had established. Everyone living there was Japanese. There wasn't a single person from the Asian cooperatives territory. Although not officially recognized, the city had 3,482 residents, equivalent to a small town. All decisions were made by the Japanese Themselves. But it
didn't stop there. The district leader of this autonomous area was none other than Yuyu. Everyone adored him. The only thing he wanted was to see the carefree smiles of the children. He wanted to protect all of them. That was also why he left Yada because his path and that of the organization differed. Managing this autonomous zone was extremely difficult as he had to negotiate with the Asian army everyday instead of fighting like Yada. He hoped that the city would expand even more in the future. Then it was time. So Yu left the three of them
to freely explore. They hadn't walked far before locals started giving them many gifts because they were Yus acquaintances. Shea and Shin went up a hill to enjoy the view of the city while Gashi went to meet his brother. After the meeting, Yuyu didn't beat around the bush and got straight to the point he wanted his little brother to leave Yada And join him in this city. He explained that due to the population cap, the number of residents couldn't increase. However, he could request the Asian army to make an exception for Gashi. He didn't want his
brother to wield a gun anymore. He wanted him to live a peaceful life here. Gashi couldn't give an immediate answer and asked for time to think. He then returned to headquarters while he was still thinking it over. Gobble approached him and Revealed a harsh truth because losing Gashi would negatively affect the company's profits. He claimed that Yu was a spy for the Asian army. Whether Gashi believed it or not was up to him, but Gobel emphasized that information is a commodity truth doesn't need to be adjusted. Besides, with a bit of reasoning, it was obvious.
How could the Asian army allow Yu to establish such a large autonomous zone unless he was working for them? According to Goel, in Exchange for creating that city, Yuyu served them seizing land, leaking information, identifying rebel elements, bribery, and sometimes even blackmail. The older brother Gashi adored was protecting the Japanese by selling them out. If Gashi continued to stay in touch with Yuyu, it would only be a matter of time before Yatada's information leaked completely. Losing one pilot was already a big loss for the company, let alone three. Gobble advised Gashi to think Carefully to
avoid unnecessary serious consequences. If he still didn't believe it, he could investigate. After hearing that, Gashi left. In a dark room, Gashi told Kay not to mention any of this to anyone. He remembered when he lost his father, he just sat there in silence, deep in thought, and it was Yu who came to comfort him. He couldn't believe his brother would do something like that. So the next day, Gashi secretly returned to the city to investigate. After only a Few rounds, he noticed many things were off. Supplies, whether medical or daily necessities, were severely lacking.
Locals constantly complained. As he went further, Gashi saw a vehicle belonging to the Asian army heading toward Yus office. As expected, they were using the delivery of essential goods as leverage to pressure Yuyu into providing information. Even though it clearly wasn't part of their agreement, he still had no choice but to comply. Gashi Witnessed it all through the surveillance camera. After the Asian forces withdrew, Yu thought for a moment and then called Gashi. The two of them met outside the autonomous zone and headed to headquarters. There, Yu met Camui and Adu. He revealed everything. How
he had cooperated with the Asian forces to establish the autonomous zone and how they were trying to extract information from him to plan the annihilation of Yada. He suspected that Asia might use the autonomous zone as a base. So, he advised them to withdraw their troops from the area. After revealing everything, Yui returned before the Asians could grow suspicious. He declined Adu's invitation to stay, but unexpectedly Yu's car wouldn't start. The maintenance crew checked and said it would take a full day to fix, so they suggested Yuyu spend the night there. With that, he no
longer held back in the dead of night. When everyone was Fast asleep, Yu secretly copied Yada's data, but as he attempted to escape, Gashi intercepted him. The two brothers began to argue. Yu wanted to protect his people, unwilling to see them die. While Gashi couldn't afford to sacrifice his own organization. The argument escalated until Yuyu turned to leave. Gashi pointed a gun at his brother but couldn't bring himself to pull the trigger. In the following days, the three pilots drifted across the sea to Meet Taoku, a rebel organization similar to theirs. The three pilots took
a different route from Adu and Kumi. The day before, they had discussed their movement plans with Gobble. He told them they might meet the Toku group, who were also working to revive Japan, but were currently being hunted down by the Asian European forces. Soon after, they spotted their destination, the island where the Toku group was hiding. At that moment, the island was under attack by The Asian European army. The defenders were desperately fighting back, but the enemy was using MI units to suppress them. Just in time, Sheibba's group arrived to support. Gashi sniped enemies from
afar while Masaru and Kendu jumped into action, cutting down Alma unit. However, the enemy was still too numerous, so Gashi deployed smoke bombs and ordered a retreat. Lieutenant Zelanoi, who was commanding this operation, witnessed everything. Laughing gleeully, he said that next time he would personally enter the battlefield. After escaping, they met Commander Kono, who thanked all three of them for their help. Sheba looked around and saw very few people, hardly enough to be called an organization. Kono explained that they used to have many members, but since Zelanoi took over operations, he had heavily invested in
MI units to hunt down and exterminate the Toku organization. Kono's next plan Was to attack the eastern side of the island where their allies were. In order to regroup, guys said that to increase their chances of success, they needed to scout the surrounding area to understand the terrain. The three of them then split up for reconnaissance, each with an escort. When She reached higher ground, he noticed strange beams of light. His escort explained they were enemy signal devices deployed in large numbers. They didn't detect humans, only MI, and if a signal was turned off, it
would trigger an enemy alert. Sheba observed them and thought he could make use of that. Meanwhile, Zelanoi was relaxing in a bath, enjoying himself before the battle. His secretary objected, questioning why he needed to personally appear when they already had victory in hand. But Zelanoi said he liked it that way and would defeat Sheba's group himself. Sheibba was taking position along with Gashin and Shin as the fog grew thicker. Zelanoi boarded an Ami and launched the sweep operation, ordering random artillery fire into the forest. Once they detected Sheba's group moving, they continued to bombard their
path. Gashan scattered smoke bombs to jam the signals, but Zelenoi activated all the signal towers. After spotting all three on the map, they fired to corner Sheba's group into one area. However, just as they were about to trap them, the signal suddenly Vanished. Outside, Gashin had blown up a bridge, taking out many enemies. Kenbu and Maseru flew out from both flanks to wipe out the rest. Hacking into their system was easy, allowing them to fake their positions. Using the fog to conceal themselves, they took down the remaining small fry and headed straight for Zelanoi. Angelo
and Guy charged ahead, eager to take him on. While Kay stayed behind and shot down two enemies behind Zelenoi, Kenboo's sword was the First to clash with him. When his staff came in to help, they were fired upon and had to dodge. Zelanoi was about to shoot Kenboo when Masaru returned and slashed his gun, damaging it. Despite being caught in a pinser attack from both sides, Zelanoi still managed to fight back. His sword was too hard to break. However, while fighting, his amii suddenly stopped moving. Gashi decided to retreat, saying there was no need to
kill him. While Zelanoi, furious, glared At them to a noble like him. This was no different from an insult. At that moment, both the sword and the armor on Ami shattered. Back with Shibba's group. After merging Kono's group with the remaining troops, they bid farewell. The trio boarded the ship to regroup with Camui's team. After this journey, Gashi had become more positive. Not long after, the Sheba team met the maintenance crew again. But before letting them service Kenbu, Sheibba Asked to wash it first because it was quite dirty. Over at Hardy's place, Gobble somehow managed
to contact him and proposed a deal. He hid his identity and only said he was a merchant selling information, the location of Ghost. To prove his credibility, Gobble revealed all the information about Hardy, Sophia, and Hardy's friend Rey. Hardy asked what price he wanted, but Gobble said he didn't want money. This was his investment in their future relationship. After that, Gobble left and sent the intel to Hardy, who immediately gave it to the intelligence agency for analysis. Meanwhile, Adu had received a report from the maintenance department about the condition of the three pilots. After hearing
it, he gave them time off to rest. After ending the call, Adu was told that a guest had arrived. As for the pilot group, while watching Ami, they chatted about the future and what they would do after Japan's restoration. Shin wanted to rebuild the pottery workshop at home. Gashi still had to avenge his father and upon hearing that Sheba promised to help him defeat Ghost. Shin also wanted to help. Gashi didn't reply, but a smile appeared on his face. As for Zelanoi, after being played by a group of brats, he reported to his commander and
requested to be transferred to the team that hunts the yada organization. The higher-ups approved his request. Meanwhile, Adu met Camui again. Camui showed Adu some photos of wounded Asian soldiers with unknown injuries, possibly attacked by another country's forces. Putting that aside, Adu showed Camui a current map of Japan, which had been divided among four factions if operations continued, the territory under Yata's control would expand. Officially, it belonged to the North American Alliance, but Japan retained autonomous control. There was something that excited Hardy during the Entire time the four factions occupied Japan. They never fought each
other to expand their territories, but that had changed recently. It was due to an enormous catalyst that caused massive upheaval. The original Ami Kenboo more precisely the self-evolving and learning AI inside Kenbu. Ghost had a similar AI, possibly even superior to guys. The more Hardy thought about it, the more he wanted to possess it. He decided to cooperate with Gobel since it was Mutually beneficial. A moment later, intel from the intelligence agency came in 90% credible ghost was still within the Asian cooperative zone since it had adapted to their old strategies. Hardy needed a new
approach to fight it. He asked Sophie from intelligence if they had tracked Sheba's group, but she said they had lost their trail long ago. And based on speculation, there were many possible directions they could have gone. After thinking for a while, Hardy Invited Ray and Sophia out to get some fresh air. Meanwhile, after Sheibba and Mizu had finished maintaining Kenbu, Sheibba, Shin, and Gashi disguised themselves to go shopping. Upon arriving at the market, the group split up to shop. Sheba was a bit overwhelmed by the crowds and accidentally bumped into Hardy. Sheba apologized and quickly
walked away, but Hardy recognized his voice from earlier and had Ry follow and compare it. After finishing their Shopping in the afternoon, Mizaru showed up and invited the group to relax in the hot springs. At the bath house, they separated into male and female sections. Unexpectedly, Sheber ran into Hardy again. Without beating around the bush, Hardy revealed he was with the North American forces and explained his mission to capture Ghost, which he had failed. He then disclosed Ghost's current location, which struck a nerve with Gashy. without letting them ask Questions. Hardy left with Ry on
the women's side. Sophie also informed them of the same thing. That night, Ghost attacked the Asian army base again, causing heavy damage. The next day, Sheba's team informed Adu of Ghost's location and about Hardy. Gashi, filled with the desire to avenge his father, wanted to go immediately, and Sheba was also willing to help, needing to avenge Risa. However, Adu asked both of them to be patient until the information was Verified. From that moment on, Gashi threw himself into training. After 2 days, the information was confirmed Ghost was in Okinosima, where it had captured the Asian
army's strongholds. The army had retreated to the mainland to establish defenses in case Ghost launched a land assault. Currently, Ghost was asleep for repairs, and Kay revealed that there were still Japanese civilians on Okinosima, abandoned by the Asian army. Now, defeating Ghost was Directly tied to protecting the Japanese people and homeland. Adu then assigned the mission of saving the civilians and defeating Ghost to the three of them. The plan involved two teams. Team O would evacuate the civilians while team B, consisting of three pilots, would carry out a surprise attack on the place where Ghost
was believed to be sleeping. After finalizing the plan, everyone split up to carry out their duties. In the following days, Teima worked to Mobilize the island's civilians for evacuation while team B trained intensively for combat. Before long, the day of the operation arrived. That night, many boats sailed to Okanosima. Team O landed and began evacuating civilians onto the boats while Team B advanced toward Ghost's location. Meanwhile, Hardy sat back to reap the benefits. Ghost had already awakened and began hunting down remnants of the Asian army, destroying two Ami and targeting The commander who had once
fought Shiva. Just then, the trio arrived and launched an attack. drawing it away as expected. Ghost targeted Chin knowing she was not yet used to its fighting style and kept closing in on her. Kenboo rushed in to help and Gashi ordered them to switch to strategy B. The three of them lured Ghost to an open area. Nasu flew overhead to support. Kenboo fought Ghost, but it had evolved to have four attacking arms, catching Sheibba off Guard and putting him at a disadvantage. Johan provided covering fire, drawing its attention toward both of them. Then Nasaru fired
an electric net to trap it. Johan attempted a finishing shot, but Ghost countered with wires from its feet, broke the net, grabbed Johan's head, and tried to crush it. Kenbu knocked its arm away, and Nasu fired another net to restrain it. The three of them retreated to reassess. Ghost's power had evolved at an insane pace, its Rapid development shocking them. Talking about evolution gave Sheibba an idea. Ghost caught up from behind and Sheibba told Gashi to execute strategy A. Kimbu lured it up the mountain. Guy located the ammunition storage and pulled it inside as Masu
was already waiting at the front. Shin fired two layers of netting to pin it down inside the storage and Guy sealed the door. From afar, Gashi took aim. The bullet hit the ammo cache, triggering a chain explosion That blew up the entire area. But before they could celebrate, ghost stood motionless in the middle of the flames. Still, they didn't give up and charged again. However, Kenbu was punched away and Nasu was tossed aside like a toy. Gashi called the two to fight together as they had trained. Hardy continued observing from afar. Whoever won, he would
benefit. If Sheba won, the ghost problem was solved. If Ghost won, he could collect Guy for research. Meanwhile, Teima successfully evacuated the civilians and even captured remnants of the Asian army. Back to the battle, the trio coordinated well, but even though it took damage, Ghost remained overwhelmingly strong. It flew in and destroyed Johan's rifle to stop his sniping. Guy suspected this was no longer just an autonomous AI, but piloted by someone. Despite their threeon-one fight, their winning odds were dropping fast. Just then, Kono Called and ordered them to retreat. Saying they had already accomplished half
the mission, but Shea refused, knowing Ghost would never let them go. He promised to return alive and asked his uncle not to worry. Hearing that, Kono agreed to send additional supplies. The trio resumed their assault. Ghost punched Kenboo away and slammed Masu into the ground, then broke Masu's arm and took Johan's leg. Shin barely managed to pull Gashi away and the two Successfully went into hiding. Kenboo was observing ghost from a distance. They used a thermal camera and discovered that the energy source it used was located in its tail. This explained why it could take
on all three of them without expending energy while they did. And that was its weakness. If it continued to maintain a high temperature without releasing internal heat, it would eventually overheat. The three then regrouped and shared energy With each other. Johan and Masaru transferred all of their energy to Kenboo so Sheibba could take down Ghost. After that, Kenboo continued to fight Ghost. While the lieutenant and Johan got into attack positions, Sheibba continued luring Ghost into the Asian military's Ami warehouse for an attack. It charged into the warehouse and then controlled the Amis to fire at
Sheibba. But Kenboo had already jumped out and detonated the warehouse. Of course, Ghost still stood tall. At this point, there was a notification that the two had reached their positions. However, Ken Buu was gradually losing ground. At this point, Guy had no choice but to break the limiter. This was the only way to defeat Ghost. Without hesitation, he agreed. Sure enough, after breaking the limiter, Kenbu became faster and in an instant sliced off one of Ghost's arms. The two were now evenly matched, Kenbu lured Ghost into a burning area. Sheba And Guy coordinated to punch
Ghost, giving it almost no chance to counter. When he destroyed another one of its arms, that was when the lieutenant jumped down and decapitated Ghost and Johan destroyed its energy tail from a distance. Ghost collapsed and Kenboo flew in to deliver the finishing blow, but the sword broke and Kenboo's entire system overloaded. At the same time, Ghost had also overheated and was emitting heat. In just a few minutes, it Would explode from excessive heat. However, Ghost dashed into the ocean to cool down, preventing the explosion, Kinu stood in its way. Determined to die with it
if necessary. Unwilling to let something like what happened to Risa occur again and to avenge Gashi's father, Sheibba decided to sacrifice himself. He would die to protect everyone he loved. In those final moments, Sheibba and Guy had one last conversation. No matter what, the two of them would go together to the ends of the earth. After saying that guy lost connection. Sheba thanked him for showing him that the world still held many beautiful things. Then both of them exploded along with ghost. Tima had successfully evacuated the civilians. The atmosphere turned gloomy upon receiving a report
that a pilot had lost signal. Adu was notified. When they went to check, there was nothing left, but they couldn't grieve For long as there were still missions to complete. Shin and Gashi said goodbye to Sheibba and moved on. Meanwhile, Hardy recovered a few fragments of ghost. Even more shocking was that its AI remained intact. Part one of the anime ends here. Farewell.
