This puzzle is about resupplying and EN management. Have Tetsuya on the left use Accel and move to the space below the Invader and use Breast Burn. Then Boss resupplies Tetsuya, restoring all of his EN. Finally, land Z and move him diagonal to Great Mazinger. Finish off the Invader with a Double Mazin Punch combo attack. If you keep Z in the air, you won’t have the EN required.

Winning gets us the Counter skill part and 10k money.

Here’s a list of what I did during this intermission. It’s probably the best way to show what I did.

As much as I think Treize is Him, he’s about to leave. Shame.

Last time, THE BOYS was formed and took the Gishin jobbers by storm.


Chapter 9: Pretty Devil
Chapter 10 if you chose the Earth Route


[Anaheim Von Braun Factory]
Amuro! Over here!
Chan, thank you for your hard work. How’s the Nu Gundam looking?
It’s almost finished. We’re currently testing the Psychoframe and the funnels.
Great. Looks like we’ll be able to deploy it in combat soon.
Yes. If you could help with the testing, we can move it up a few days.
Alright. I’ll help out.
Really? But you’re too busy with her aren’t you?
Ah…
Amuro!
Beltorchika. That was quick.
Of course. How’s the Nu Gundam?
It’ll take some time, but if I get the Captain to help me, it’ll be done faster.
You can hurry it up by yourself.
The Psycommu is almost impossible to adjust by myself.
Beltorchika, don’t make her do something unreasonable.
I know, but…
You want the Captain to have a good mobile suit, don’t you?
Fine, I get it!
Sorry. I’ll go shopping with you another time.


[Ra Cailum, Officer’s Dining Room]
Ahhh… So what’s Cliff up to?
Last I heard he went on a research trip to Antarctica.
That Cliff…
What is it?
You know we don’t know anything about our unit’s systems. The Lost Technology that runs them is found there. It’s running a system that doesn’t work unless it’s actively piloted… Anything can happen.
Then…
It makes them absolutely impossible to be replaced.
I guess that’s true…
What are you talking about?
Oh, Tetsuya.
Joshua Radcliffe, right? I heard stories from Rim and your comrades back on Earth. You’ve been fighting Invaders in Antarctica for a while.
You’re… Tetsuya Tsurugi. What are you getting at?
Nothing really. I just wanted to meet another warrior like you.
Alright. So what do you think of me?
Can’t tell. We’ll find out in the upcoming battle. At least I can tell that you’re a good brother who cares about his sister.
…That means a lot to me. I’ll accept that. Even though I don’t know if you’re someone I can trust with my life.
Umm…
(What’s this weird tension between them?)
(Yeah… Why is Tetsuya doing this…)


[Ra Cailum Bridge]
Are you sure about that?
Yes, there’s no mistake.There are other aliens that have come to Earth. We’re currently investigating it. Maybe they came from Helios, but they also might have come from Gishin. Or maybe from another destroyed nation.
(Earl is speaking via monitor)
So that robot is… Oh, Kento.
You’re here.
So this is where Manabu is. What can I help you with?
Lord Kento! We’ve been waiting for you!
I only came here because the Captain said he needed me, not for you Gramps.
Sorry. He was being extremely adamant about talking to you.
I heard you fought the Gishin Imperial Army. Why didn’t you tell me?
Who cares. They were easy.
What was that? With your father Prince Harlin missing, you’re the future Emperor. Since we fought them with Daltanious, they know we’re on Earth. This isn’t the time to relax. You need to decide. Now is the time to avenge His Majesty the Great Emperor who met his end at the hands of the treacherous Gishin. The time has come to rise up and restore Helios!
I really couldn't care less about restoring the Helios Empire or becoming an Emperor. My father is a sailor named Hayato Tate and that’s that.
[He leaves]
So this Lord Hayato has to actually be Prince Harlin… Please wait! Captain, please bring him back here!
(...Someone save me.)


[Varauta Fleet Flagship]
I knew it would be perfect for you. You can always Fold if you need to. I’m counting on you, Sivil.
(Dammit, just go already.)
Got it.

Sivil, you’ve been entrusted with command so quickly. Just shows how much Geppelnitch trusts you. Now for the Spiritia…
It doesn’t matter. I’m using your troops.
That’s fine.
(Anima Spiritia… I want to feel that again.)


[Von Braun Bay Area]
What!? Something’s coming!?
[Explosion]
A fireball!? Woah!
Hahaha. I finally found you, Mars. You did well to dodge that.
Who’s there? Show yourself!
Hehehe. That was just a greeting.
Who the hell are you?
I’m Baren, a psychic from Planet Gishin. Mars, Emperor Zuul is very angry. Follow the Emperor’s orders and detonate the Antiproton bomb.
What!? Damn… That wasn’t a dream after all…
What’s the holdup? Just give the command to Gaia and it’ll be over quickly.
Stop it! I’m an Earthling!
You’re a Gishin. All Gishin must follow Emperor Zuul’s orders. Are you really refusing his commands?
Of course! Who’d want to destroy the Earth anyway!
Mars, for being a traitor to our Emperor Zuul, I will kill you. The Emperor will kill anyone who doesn’t obey him, even his own children! Mars, prepare yourself!
[A flash of light]
Waaaaaah!!
[Another flash]
What? You dare use your psychic powers? Damn you, Mars! I thought you were powerless.
Since when did I have this kind of power? I really am…
Come, Vacuum!
Wait you bastard! Ahhhhhhh!!


Stupid Mars. Your psychic powers won’t work on my Vacuum!


Woah!? Dammit… am I going to die…


SRW D - Ruler of the Universe! Godmars
Shit, is that Gaia!?


Damn you, Gaia. I’ll get you, Mars!
This is… Gaia?


Fool. You’re right where I want you! Die, Mars!


Uwaaaa!!
Hahahaha. How’s that, Mars! This is the end. Accept your fate!
Guhhh!!


What!?


Damn you, Mars! I’ll remember this! AHHHHH!!


…What’s happening? Who… am I…?
…Gaia senses your brainwaves and acts accordingly. Gaia is a robot that’s powered by Antiproton energy. It also has two Antiproton bombs built into it. It operates on Mars’ orders and is capable of destroying the Earth. Destroy the Earth at once. I repeat, at once…
Stop it!!


Woah!?
[Gaia leaves]
Gaia… Zuul mentioned it in my dream. What… am I…


[Ra Cailum Bridge]
Takeru Myojin, what just happened?
Answer him, Takeru.
Captain… I’m not sure myself.
You don’t know?! Takeru, what are you hiding!
I’m not hiding anything! I really don’t know!
However you must have been on board that robot and piloting it.
It moved on its own.
It clearly isn't Earth made. Is it alien?
I don’t know.
Someone in the Bay Area said they saw you fighting someone in an abnormal way. Do you know anything about that?
I was attacked out of the blue…
[Beeps]
This is the Ra Cailum Bridge. What is it?
Is something wrong?
Side 3 is under attack by the Varauta Army. The Neo Zeon and Battle 7 fleets are holding them off. We’re being asked to rush there.
What?
Captain, our entire crew is onboard.
All right. Ra Cailum, emergency launch. Everyone to battle positions! Beltorchika, notify the control room.
Roger.
What should we do about Takeru?
We’ll discuss this later. Until then, Takeru will be under house arrest in his quarters. Understood?
Wait, I didn’t do anything…
Takeru, it’s an order.
…Sir.


We made it in time. What’s the situation?
The battlefield encompasses the entire Side. There’s a lot of them.
Battle 7 is currently defending City 7. Commander Max says that the wide scale attack on the Side is only a diversion.
A diversion? To what end?
The enemy’s aim appears to be to retake City 7.
City 7… the migrant ship?
Yeah. It’s been taken once before.
It’s smaller than a colony. If the enemy surrounds it with medium sized ships, they can force an external Fold.
…Chan, is it ready?
[Monitor turns on]
Yes. The Nu Gundam will be ready in time. The adjustments to the funnels are complete.


[Battle 7 Bridge]
Captain, there’s a Defold reaction ahead of us. A large one. I put it on the monitor.
I knew it. There’s another large fleet coming. All ships, maximum speed. Everyone to battle positions. Where’s the Ra Cailum?
It’s on our starboard.


[Varauta Fleet]
So they saw us coming. It’s fine. Their Spirita is different from the others. All ships open fire. It doesn’t matter if you miss, just fire. It’ll intimidate them. If we do that, their Spiritia levels will also increase.
Roger. Commencing bombardment.


[Battle 7 Bridge]
Enemy fleet is opening fire!
They’re just intimidating us. Ignore it. Relay that to the Ra Cailum.
Roger!
[Rumbling]
No direct hits. All shots missed.


[Varauta Fleet]
Their commanders sure have courage. Interesting.
…I’m going.
Sivil, are you going out there?
I’ll verify… the Anima Spiritia.
Alright. Stop firing! Launch!


[Battle 7 Bridge]
Enemy units have launched. Rapidly approaching.
Captain, they’re moving differently from usual.
The interception fleet has been breached.
Time to work. Launch the Valkyries. Captain Bright.
Understood. We’re launching our units too.


Once again, I chose Battle 7.

The first line Valkyries have been broken through. Enemy units incoming!


It’s them… Captain Bright, I’m going out there!
Lieutenant Kizaki… Alright you have permission. The rest of you launch as well. Hurry!


You get to choose 13 units along with a forced deployed Gamlin in whatever VF you put him in.

Captain Kinryu, Docker, and Mylene, watch over me. On behalf of the Diamond Force’s honor, Gamlin Kizaki will send them flying!


[RX-93 Nu Gundam]
It’s not just for show! Nu Gundam is great as it always is in SRW games. All it needs is some EN and Weapon upgrades and it’ll be set to take it into the endgame. I wish I had more to say, but it’s just good overall.


You know the drill by now. Try to meet the enemy near the asteroid field a little to the north or camp out in the field right next to where we deploy. I opted for the latter but got impatient and started pushing into their battle lines. I should also mention that Takeru is no longer a subpilot for the Cosmo Crusher due to house arrest.




Here’s the Shoot Down ability in action. I rarely see it happen to be honest.

After some enemies are killed…


Captain, enemy reinforcements approaching!


Have the Valkyries hold them back.


…They’ve been obliterated.
Dammit, it’s the same enemy from the other day. An energy entity that moves at ultra-high speeds… A new foe?
(...There’s no way it’s…)


SRW D - HOLY LONELY NIGHT
Ffffffiiiiiiirrrrrreeeee! Everyone, listen to my song!
Nekki Basara…!
It’s him again.
What the? Who’s that?
A song…? Is he singing?
Singing… Ehhhh!? What’s a person like that doing here!?
…Heh.
What’s up with that guy! Gou, are you really laughing!?
Well… It’s his specialty I guess. The singing Valkyrie I mean.
Specialty… Duo, what are you talking about?
Captain Bright, please explain.
Sorry, I forgot to tell you. Don’t worry about him. Just let him do what he wants.
Space really is full of weirdos. Right, Koji?
You’re right about that. I wonder what he’s thinking.
Kento, it’s not funny. You’re both idiots.
Ah… What’s his plan?


Basara has made contact with the enemy lifeform.
(...Nekki Basara.)
ANIMA SPIRITIA!
You’re the woman who left mid show last time! This time, I’ll make a fan out of you!


Uuuu…! Ahhhhh…! …I’m shivering… Uwaaaa…Ahhhhh!!
[She runs]
Ah! Not again! Listen to the end! Wait up!
Sivil? What’s going on? Damn, it’s that abnormal Spirita!
…Dammit, this isn’t funny.

Basara temporarily joins us. Remember, he’s not a member of THE BOYS at this time. Anyway I’m using him to solo Gigil up to the north west. Also Gamlin is tagging along just for the boss conversation. Everyone else is going to deal with the reinforcements to the south west.




Here comes the abnormal Spiritia! This time, I’ll take your Spiritia!
I’ll let you hear it! The real sound of Fire Bomber!


Gamlin Kizaki of the Diamond Force will be your opponent! Uwoooooo!!
Hehe. What a lively Spirita. Time to eat!


Tch, that’s all for now. Time to call it a day!
Please wait, Commander Gigil. Lord Geppelnitch’s…
Shut up! I have to find Sivil. Who cares about Geppelnitch’s dreams!

Gigil doesn’t retreat at low HP and drops a Hybrid Armor (HP+800, Armor+150) and a Defense +10 skill part.


The Varauta Army has retreated. All ships have Folded out.
No hostiles remaining around Side 3. No damage to the colonies. City 7 is also safe.
Hmm. What are they planning?
Communication from the Ra Cailum.
Commander Max, what’s the situation?
It appears they’ve all retreated. All troops are to stand down and initiate rescue operations.
Understood. Returning all units.


…You fool. How long are you going to believe that singing will work on your enemies? What happened earlier was a coincidence! I will acknowledge that you are risking your life. It’s no publicity stunt or just a performance.
…
[Basara leaves]
I’ll just say this. If you think you can scare away your enemies by singing, you’re a fool, Basara! Can you hear me, Basara? Answer me!
Lieutenant Gamlin, he has already left.
Wha- Dammit. Basaraaaaaaaaaaaaa!!


[Gigil’s Ship]
What? You can’t find Sivil?
Correct, Commander Gigil.
Sivil… where did she go…


[Ra Cailum Briefing Room]
So, anything from Takeru?
No changes. He says he still doesn’t know anything. The Colonel and Treize said they would leave it to us.
Geez. I have a feeling this is going to get complicated.
What about the data capsule that Takeru brought from inside that robot?
It appears to be something extraterrestrial, so I’ve asked Chief Exedor and Dr. Earl to take a look at it.
Commander, just who is he?
I don’t know.
…I looked him up in the Unified Forces database the other day. It said that although he’s Dr. Myojin’s child, the details of his birth are unknown.
Seriously?
Why did you do that?
Naoto, it would be a shame if you viewed Takeru differently because of that.
But with what happened, it makes sense why.
There’s nothing we can do about that.
But Takeru is one of us.
I know. But I can’t take any unnecessary risks. Until we know more, Takeru will be confined to his quarters.


[Ra Cailum Bridge]
A visit to City 7?
Yes. They want to see a city that’s entirely within a ship.
Seriously, those guys…
Well they’re still just kids. You can’t help that. It’s a 5 km long “ship”.
It’s fine. Beltorchika, please get permission from Mayor Milia to dock.


[Battle 7 Operations Room]
What’s going on?
Yeah… Well…
Even though it’s for testing, we can’t just rent out the latest model. If the operation doesn’t go as planned, we’ll have to rework it…
There’s no need for that. Just give me a little more time. I can’t think of anyone to replace him.
Hmm… Well Nekki Basara’s piloting skills are very impressive.
Captain…
Well, compared to the old me, he still has a way to go.


[City 7, Circus]
That was fun. Are you having fun? Aren’t you busy?
No. We just happened to dock halfway across the ship. But a circus in City 7 is quite unusual.
Well things have been tough lately. So Mama asked me to hold some kind of event to reassure the citizens. By the way, you said Mama was a strict instructor, right?
That’s right. We couldn’t make even a single mistake. So many new recruits were forced to quit because they were told they didn’t have the talent.
I can believe that.
Is Mayor Milia strict at home too?
Very.
I can believe that too.
Ahahahaha. Eh? Those people…
Ugh…
Lieutenant Kizaki, did you come to see the circus too?
Kinda.
Quatre, stop it.
How are you all doing? Thank you for the other day too. Now you’re fighting with Gamlin in THE BOYS, right?
Yea.
Do your best out there. I’m rooting for you. Have you seen Basara?
Yep. He was singing very enthusiastically.
That guy has to die before he can take a break. Just the other day, he stayed up all night writing a new song.
Kikiii!
M-Mylene, it’s about time…


Sayaka, that clown was amazing.
I guess. I wish Koji came here too. I wonder where they went.
He said he was going to rent a motorcycle with Boss.
I wish Ochame and Suzy could see this too.
Same.
You mean the kids who stayed on the surface?
Yes. By the way, who was that woman with Gamlin?
Mylene F. Jenius. The daughter of Mayor Milia and Commander Max. The other day, we helped her out with a little situation.
Now that I think about it, she was on a date with the Lieutenant back then too.
I thought Gamlin was an elite, but he’s just a guy.
It is what it is. Anyway, Mylene and that guy Basara are in a band called Fire Bomber.
That sounds like a lot of work.
By the way, Duo. I heard that Mayor Milia is a Meltran. Is that true?
Seems so. The story goes that she married Captain Max and micron’d.
So Mylene’s mother is actually a giant that attacked the Earth?
Oh, I know. I read about it in a library. Captain Max is a great pilot too. When she fought against the UN Army, she was known as Milia the Ace. When peace was made with the Zentradi, she joined the Unified Forces and became a Valkyrie instructor.
Wow, that’s amazing.
Yes. Lieutenant Gamlin said something about being one of her students.
Uso you sure know a lot.
That’s why he’s not cute.
That’s… My parents made me this way…
Ah, Sayaka, look! The clown from before is behind that tent.
Hmm? …Now that I look at it, that clown looks familiar…
Ah… Trowa!? Heero, that’s Trowa!
What? That’s Trowa?
…It is him.
Do you know him?
He’s our… our friend. Trowa… You’re alive…


Trowa!
Hmm? …Who are you guys?
Trowa? What are you talking about? We…
Sorry, I’m still on the clock.
Trowa, you don’t…
Amnesia?
Ah… Well I guess so. Do you know me?
Kinda. We fought together against OZ.
I see.
…No way, Trowa. This is all my fault…
Quatre, instead of thinking about that we need to think about how to help Trowa.
You’re right… But…
If you were comrades, why don’t we let him join us? Even if you can’t fight, your memories might come back if you’re on a battlefield.
But…
I think it’s a great idea.
…It’s possible.
You’re… right. Trowa, will you come with us? I want to help get your memories back.
My memories, huh? Very well... I’ll go talk with the ringmaster. Please wait.


[Tower Command Center]
Commander, a call from OZ. The OZ ground forces and our robot battalion who were headed to Shin Dragon were wiped out.
Stinger and Cowen… Damn those Invaders!
That’s not all. Whenever Shin Dragon appears above ground, the number and power of the Invaders in that area increases exponentially.
We lost Shin Dragon again.
…
Hehehehe… I want to see with my own eyes what kind of evolution Shin Dragon has undergone after absorbing the Getter Rays.
Don’t be absurd! We can’t let it evolve any further! We must destroy its reactor core as soon as possible and cut off its energy supply! Yamazaki, contact Treize. THE BOYS need to come to the surface. We can no longer defeat him with pure numbers. We need their help after all.
Understood. I’ll arrange it right away.
