The devastating explosion in the Pacific Ocean quickly spread around the world.

It was clear that Daya and Japan were not the only ones with satellites that detected the conflict. In addition, Fang Zheng deliberately did not keep it secret, so the news about the Destiny Gundam and the strategic destructive magic spread quickly.

Of course, strictly speaking, this was Fang Zheng instructing Daya to add fuel to the fire.

This war was a win-win situation for both sides. For Japan, they prevented aggression and saved their territory.

For Daya, this is also worth celebrating.

With the end of the war, the previously active Goryeo and Vietnamese forces in the Great Asian Alliance suffered a serious blow. Their fleets were completely annihilated, and their personnel suffered heavy casualties. They were also completely defeated. This made the people in the two regions very angry and dissatisfied, so the representatives of the pro-war faction had to take responsibility and step down.

On the contrary, the Han people had been secretly communicating with Fang Zheng for a long time, so they had been firmly opposed to the joint war with the new Soviet Union before the war started. Therefore, they took advantage of this defeat and successfully seized the dominant position in the Great Asian Alliance, which was considered a comeback. After all, the Han people were attacked without any war crimes, but this time it was a complete strategic misjudgment. The representatives of Vietnam and Goryeo had no room for explanation and could only leave obediently.

After gaining the leading position, the Han forces immediately launched a drastic reform of the alliance. On the one hand, they signed a ceasefire agreement with Japan, and on the other hand, they also made changes to the Great Asian Alliance, one of which was to change the name of the Great Asian Alliance to the Pan-Asian Alliance. After all, the original name was thought up by those monkeys, and it was too ostentatious and did not fit the idea of ​​making a fortune quietly. So they took advantage of this reform and changed the name...

In order to appease public opinion within Pan Asia, they naturally also widely publicized the existence of Gundam - this was inevitably a bit strange in the eyes of other countries and forces. After all, they had never seen a defeated party still happily beating drums and gongs and propaganda all over the streets, as if they wanted to let the whole world know how they were defeated.

However, Pan Asia's explanation for this is to tell the people "It's not that our army is not strong, but that the other side has Gundam" to appease public opinion... This is not unreasonable.

No matter what Pan Asia did, at least the whole world knew about the existence of Destiny Gundam due to their deliberate propaganda. This also made the Japanese government very angry. They originally thought that the other side would hide all this in order to avoid shaking the morale of the army. Just like the Okinawa battle three years ago, as long as you don’t tell and I don’t tell, then the secret weapon will always remain a secret.

But no one expected that Pan Asia had something wrong with its brain this time and insisted on making it known to everyone. Now Japan had to become passive.

Of course, the one who suffered the most was the New Soviet Union. Their Pacific Fleet was completely wiped out, and their influence in East Asia was greatly reduced. Moreover, the Pan-Asia side also took advantage of the situation and claimed that it was they who proposed the joint operation, but they couldn't even do the most basic intelligence investigation, and they also lost the fleets of two military regions. This also brought the reputation of the New Soviet Union to the bottom. It was a disaster.

As for Fang Zheng, after returning to Yokohama, he and the Destiny Gundam were immediately taken away by the military for careful questioning and investigation.

However, the result also made the Japanese military helpless.

"So... that's not the effect of a weapon, but the power of Kasugano-kun's own magic after it was amplified?"

Looking at the investigation report in front of him, Kazama Genshin frowned and asked, and Lieutenant Fujibayashi standing in front of him nodded.

"Yes, we checked it too. There are indeed no military weapons or similar settings on that machine. According to Kasugano-kun, the reason why it was able to defeat the combined fleet in one blow was because of a system on the machine called the 'psychic skeleton', which can amplify the magic of the magician in a short period of time and release it."

"Are you sure?"

"I am quite sure."

At this point, Lieutenant Fujibayashi gave a bitter smile.

"Because Kasugano-kun showed us his strength... Frankly speaking, it was totally beyond our ability to resist."

"Compared to the Great Black Captain?"

The "Oguro Tokuwei" that Genshin Kazama mentioned is actually Tatsuya Shiba, who goes by the alias "Oguro Ryuya".

"If we compare the two, it's hard to say, but he is also a very powerful magician."

"Really..."

Genshin Kazama closed his eyes, thought for a moment, and then looked at Lieutenant Fujibayashi.

"In fact, the higher-ups are considering removing Captain Dahei from the rank."

"Huh? Why is this...wait, because of fate?"

Lieutenant Fujibayashi was shocked to hear Genshin Kazama's answer, but he immediately reacted.

"That's right."

Fengjian Xuanxin nodded.

"You and I both know that the greatest role of Captain Dahei is his deterrent power as a strategic magician."

"But now this deterrent is no longer the only one..."

"Yes, and I heard that the branch of the Yotsuba family also seemed to have made suggestions. They seemed to think that the mental condition of the Great Black Captain was not stable. There was no way to deal with it before, but now that there is a replacement, it is not a good thing to continue to let the Great Black Captain exist."

"Can……"

Lieutenant Fujibayashi didn't know what to do. She certainly understood why the higher-ups had such an idea. After all, Shibata was also a human being, and if he was alone, his mind would be unstable and even threatening. But fate was just a weapon. Although they had discovered in their inspections over the past few days that unless one was a very powerful magician, there was no way to drive fate, even so, its requirements were still much lower. After all, which country didn't have a few powerful magicians?

Gundam is a weapon, a machine. Machines have no self-awareness and no heart, but they can be controlled.

But it’s hard to say about humans... A being that possesses the power to destroy the world will always make those above him feel fearful.

Besides, even if there is no Shiba Tatsuya, don't we still have Kasugano? With him as the leader, and a few more magicians trained as pilots to operate the mecha, its power will not be much worse than Shiba Tatsuya, and it will be easier to control. No matter how powerful the strategic magician is, there is only one person. If he is defeated, it will have a great impact on the people, just like the fall of a guardian god.

But on the other hand, if a machine is destroyed, it can be rebuilt, and even if there are not as many backups as needed, at least there will not be too few.

"But... do we really have to... purge the Great Black Special Officer?"

Although he understood it, Lieutenant Fujibayashi still felt a little unhappy at the thought of getting rid of the donkey after it had done its job.

"Of course not. Although there is a potential threat, purging the generals without a real reason will only cause trouble. However, given the current situation... we only have one solution."

Obviously, Genshin Kazama didn't want Shiba Tatsuya to be removed from the list, after all, he was still his subordinate, so Genshin Kazama used many methods to change the outcome. In the end, the decision made by the higher-ups was changed, which made him feel a little relieved - although he was not naive enough to think that the other party would really not attack Shiba Tatsuya again, or strictly speaking, this was a test for Shiba Tatsuya to determine whether he was still willing to serve the country.

For Fengjian Xuanxin, this is the only thing he can do now.

Soon, Fang Zheng also learned the news.

"Study abroad on exchange?"

Fang Zheng looked at the document in front of him, narrowed his eyes, raised his head and stared at Shiba Miyuki, who clearly showed an unhappy expression.

"Yes... This is a proposal from the United States, and we have accepted it."

At this point, Shiba Miyuki was quite unhappy. She certainly understood what was going on. Although the Yotsuba family had collapsed and the remaining branches were not enough to maintain the Yotsuba family's influence and intelligence network, Shiba Miyuki was not a fool. She had guessed that this must be related to the large robot developed by Fang Zheng.

But the reason given above is also impeccable, because the girl who wants to be exchanged to study abroad is a freshman from the opposite high school, so as a condition of exchange, naturally, a similar person must be exchanged on our side. As Fang Zheng is the developer of Destiny Gundam, he will definitely not be allowed to go abroad, so Shiba Miyuki, who is ranked second below him, is naturally the exchange target.

Strictly speaking, Shiba Miyuki was not that unhappy, because her superiors had agreed to Shiba Tatsuya's request to go to the United States with her. However, when she thought about the fact that the whole thing was caused by Fang Zheng, it was difficult for her to maintain a good attitude towards this man.

"Not bad, America is a great place, it's good to go and enjoy it."

Fang Zheng put down the document in his hand with a smile and spoke. He was not a fool either. When he saw the document, Fang Zheng knew that everything he did had worked.

This is normal. When it comes to manipulating people's hearts, ten Shibata Tatsuyas are no match for him.

"enjoy?"

"Yes, places like Disneyland are good for dating and relaxation."

Fang Zheng said as he looked back at the document in front of him, ignoring the way Shiba Miyuki's face flushed when she heard the word "date".

And more importantly...

This time, once they go, they can’t come back.

So, have fun.

Fang Zheng silently gave a eulogy to the two of them in his heart.
