Mobile Suit Wars: Starting with Gundam OO

Chapter 20: Chapter 20: The Funeral March



A week later, the Republic of Talibia in South America issued a declaration of independence, igniting the entire world.

"Is it finally here? I've been waiting impatiently," Yang Hui said, sitting in front of the television, watching the spokesperson on stage speak grandly, a smirk on her face.

"He's openly trying to use Celestial Being, but we have to go, it's really frustrating," Wang Liu Mei complained.

"But what he doesn't know is that his plan to use Celestial Being has instead been turned against him," Yang Hui sneered, "Heh, he wants to use us, but I wonder if he can afford the price."

"That's right, but Yang Hui, are you prepared? This time, you won't just be facing Talibia's MS forces; UNION will definitely intervene," Wang Liu Mei said with some concern, as she had never seen Yang Hui fight in person and thus had no concrete impression of her abilities.

"Don't worry, if I can't win, retreating safely is still no problem," Yang Hui waved her hand dismissively.

"Since you say so, I wish you great success in battle," Wang Liu Mei smiled.

"Just watch, my grand entrance is coming," Yang Hui grinned.

"Beep beep—beep beep—"

At that moment, Wang Liu Mei's PAD rang. She picked it up and glanced at it, saying to Yang Hui, "Sumeragi has sent a communication request; she must be setting up the battle plan."

"Sigh, she's worrying too much," Yang Hui complained a bit as she walked towards the communication room.

However, despite her words, Wang Liu Mei could still sense a hint of tenderness and emotion in Yang Hui's tone.

Wang Liu Mei didn't feel jealous anymore; she simply followed behind Yang Hui. She had reached an agreement with Sumeragi; although she couldn't buy her out, she had at least invested.

Once the communication was connected, everyone stationed on Ptolemaios appeared on screen.

"Long time no see, everyone," Yang Hui greeted actively.

"Long time no see, Myer."

"We all saw your spectacular performance."

"This time, Myer is probably going to have a grand showdown, right?"

"To have a large-scale mission executed by just one person is truly hopeless."

"Ah haha, Tieria means, Myer, be careful."

...

Everyone responded to Myer, some with blessings, others with teasing, while Sumeragi's face showed concern.

"Myer..." Sumeragi hesitated, although she understood Myer's abilities well, she still instinctively worried.

"Don't worry, you know my piloting skills, right?" Yang Hui reassured her.

"Mm..."

"Alright, everyone, enjoy my grand performance in space," Yang Hui said.

"Haha, we must watch closely."

"Myer, be careful, or Ms. Huang will be a widow before she even gets married, right, Human Reform League?"

"Christina!!"

"Ah ah ah! Ms. Huang is blushing!"

"Hey, everyone, be serious; we're in the middle of a mission!"

"Well, what's wrong? Myer will be fine; it's okay to relax a bit."

...

The long-awaited communication ended in a cheerful atmosphere. Aside from Sumeragi, who was worried, and Tieria, who had a frown on his face the entire time, no one else was concerned about whether Yang Hui could complete the mission and return safely, especially the five Gundam Meisters, who had personally experienced how terrifying Myer's piloting skills were.

After cutting off the communication, Myer headed to the underground hangar and activated Gundam Rasiel.

"I'll be watching you closely, Yang Hui, watching you shine brilliantly," Wang Liu Mei quietly watched Gundam Rasiel head to the battlefield until it completely disappeared from view. Only then did she return indoors and open the observation screen, not wanting to miss any detail of this performance.

...

UNION's suppression operation against Talibia had begun. The air force swiftly seized air superiority over the major cities, while UNION's fleet had also approached Talibia's mainland. The MS forces were on standby in the air, ready to launch a full-scale attack at a moment's notice.

Talibia was prepared to fight to the last, concentrating all its troops in three major cities.

Neither side had fired the first shot; they were both waiting, waiting for Celestial Being's arrival.

Not far away in the sky, Gundam Rasiel streaked like a meteor through the formation of UNION's fleet.

"What!? Only one machine?"

"Yes! And it's a Gundam that has never appeared in the data!"

"Is it from another faction?"

"Based on data comparison, it can be confirmed as a Gundam from Celestial Being."

"Damn it, did they hold back? Order the entire army to stand by."

"Yes!"

The same intelligence reached the ears of various countries, and they were all taken aback. A sixth Gundam was hidden? Were there more Gundams concealed? And for a battle of this scale, only one machine was sent to execute the mission—was this boldness? Recklessness? Or confidence?

Various questions swirled in their minds, but soon, they would get their answer.

"Shh~ There are quite a few of them; let's have a grand showdown!" Yang Hui looked at the enemies marked by the detector, whistling and showing an excited smile.

In an instant, Yang Hui's hands moved like shadows on the control panel, as if playing a beautiful melody—yes, a melody, a funeral dirge dedicated to the enemies.

"Here we go! GN-bit deployed!"

In the astonished expressions of everyone, the sixteen feathers from Gundam Rasiel's wings fell, transforming into dancing spirits that scattered and flew.

Accompanied by the notes of the melody, pink beams fell like raindrops, each one accurately hitting Talibia's MS. In just the first attack, sixteen of Talibia's MS were directly destroyed.

The Talibia forces hadn't even realized what was happening; they hadn't done anything yet—why was the Gundam attacking them directly?

"The old fox made it very clear..." Yang Hui controlled Gundam Rasiel, like the Grim Reaper, raining down pink death upon the ground, muttering to herself, "...nations that fuel war are also targets for military intervention!"

With a burst of fireworks, Yang Hui coldly looked at the Talibia forces from the cockpit: "The price for using us is very high; if you want to see our attitude, then watch closely!"

After a brief pause, the symphony of death was once again played.

"Damn it! Can't escape!"

"Devil! He's a devil!"

"Don't come over... ah~!"

...

Despair, fear, anger, unwillingness...

Begging for mercy, fleeing, confronting, dodging...

No matter what emotions they carried or what actions they took, they could not escape the Grim Reaper's pursuit. In the very next second after witnessing their comrades being shot down, it was their turn.

"Boom boom boom boom..."

The sound of explosions rang out continuously, and the brilliant fireworks brought congratulatory displays to the city's clamor. It wasn't until the last MS in the city exploded that this grand feast reached its first climax.

"Is that it? That was really unsatisfying," Yang Hui complained, retracting the GN-bit and pulling the control stick to fly towards the next city.

Whether it was the UNION troops witnessing it firsthand or the high-ranking officials and ordinary citizens of various countries watching on television and PADs, no one could recover from the first climax. They all gaped, staring blankly at Gundam Rasiel as it headed to the next city.

"How is this possible?"

"This... how is this even done?"

"Is this a hidden trump card of Celestial Being?"

"This is on a completely different level from the previous Gundams!"

No matter who it was, they were all shocked by Gundam Rasiel's performance. From the moment Gundam Rasiel fired its first shot to the end of the battle, it lasted only 2 minutes, and all 35 of Talibia's MS were annihilated.

"Where did the Gundam go? Where did the Gundam go?" The fleet commander asked in a panic.

"Heading to the next city... already engaged!"

"Order the air force to keep a close eye on the Gundam! We absolutely cannot lose sight of it!"

"But Commander, there's communication interference..."

"Find a way to solve it! We must get the orders through! Also, immediately contact our country and request military support against Talibia! This is not a war! This is a massacre..."

"Yes!"

As the fleet commander issued orders, Gundam Rasiel had already arrived at the second city, beginning the second chapter of its performance.

"So boring, really boring. Hey, isn't there anyone who can put up a fight?" Yang Hui felt it was too dull; this was completely bullying children.

Not to mention that Talibia's MS forces were all outdated "combat-style" machines, not a single Flag in sight, the quality of the army was shockingly low. After being attacked, they couldn't even organize an effective counterattack. Not only was there no basic coordination between units, but even between squads, the pilots' skills were at a beginner level, with dodging movements being monotonous and straightforward, and attacks just standing still like targets.

"With this level, I should have let Setsuna and the others come; this is so boring."

As soon as those words were spoken, the Talibia forces in the second city were also eliminated, still in 2 minutes, with 37 MS wiped out.

And as it headed to the final city, a hint of amusement finally curled at the corner of her mouth.

"Is it finally getting interesting? I hope you won't disappoint me."

What was observed through the cameras was not just Talibia's army, but also UNION's air force. Behind Gundam Rasiel, a squadron of Flags was following to observe, and at the forefront was a black Flag.

Yang Hui licked her lips, excitedly muttering to herself, "Hehehe, it's you, isn't it? Graham, are you ready to be humiliated again?"

With a sudden pull of the control stick, she charged towards the enemy formation without slowing down.

...

"Is it here?" Graham looked at the familiar Gundam Rasiel, excitement and fervor in his eyes.

"Finally going to face off against a Gundam, how thrilling, Lieutenant," Howard Mason said.

"Yeah, but this guy is no joke; be careful not to die," Graham warned the two.

Ending the communication, Graham made the same choice as Yang Hui, suddenly breaking away from the formation and charging straight ahead.
