Editing KSGU:Volume 4 Chapter 2 (section)

===Part 14===

Numerous light spots appeared on the asteroid joints, and the flashes merely remained for a moment. The gas left over from the explosions floated to the shadows of the asteroids and could not be observed. The main screen show that “Palau” looked just like usual.

(We’ve sighted an explosion of light at “Palau”s connecting shafts!)

(Hyper mega-particle cannon, loading rate is 120%. Preparations to fire are complete.)

The cannon operator’s voice quickly passed through the wireless communicator right after the sensor operator. Otto got up from the Captain seat and stared at the “Palau” that was optically corrected. There were three fat rock blocks “Carollas” gathered around the bow shaped “Calyx”—and since ECOAS had already cut off all the connecting shafts, those were 4 blocks of rocks sticking to each other through inertia. In that case, the object balls were lined up, and they just needed to use the cue to fire the cue ball and knock down all the target baclls lined up in a rhombus.

''We must hit the vital spot in one hit.'' Otto told himself silently in his heart as he seemingly gathered his courage. But at this moment…

(High heat sources approach! Two of them. Mobile suits.)

The sensor operator’s voice caused Otto’s order to remain stuck at his throat. ''Why at this moment?'' He looked at the sensor monitor and stared at the indicated unknown targets. 4 mobile suits were launched from “Palau” and two of them passed through their mobile suit advanced squad and moved close to this point. The “Nahel Argama” itself was moving at a high speed, so both sides were closing in on each other at an alarming rate. The target was right in front of them, and this battleship could not dodge or fire as it approached undefended.

It was a thought that happened in less than a second. (Let the cover intercept…) Otto interrupted Liam’s words that were about to come out “LEAVE THEM ALONE!” and yelled.

“GET OUR ALLIES OUT OF THE WAY! HYPER MEGA-PARTICLE CANNON, BEGIN THE ATTACK!”

''To heck with them.'' Otto ignored Alberto, who was looking over at him in surprise, and slumped himself tightly onto the Captain’s seat. The voices repeating the command rang, and as all their allied mechas were out of the range, (Ready…FIRE!) the cannon operator’s voice rang inside his helmet.

At that moment, the 400m long ship trembled, rocking the bridge. The flash dashed past the window as it went off to the other end, and even the anti-glare filter could not reduce the intensity of this powerful light that covered Otto’s sights.
