Sei Itō's gaze slowly swept across everyone and said, "There are only two goals. One is to end this war, and two is to establish Aubry again. Am I right?"
Everyone looked at each other one by one after Sei Itō's gaze swept across them. Finally, Carrie nodded and admitted, "Yes."
"Then let me ask you a question. You should have the funds that Aubry or Aubry left for you, right?" Sei Itō looked at Carrie, Kisaka, and Erica again and asked.
"That's right." Kisaka and Erica looked at each other and admitted in a deep voice.
"That's good." Sei Itō nodded and said, "In fact, you can use the funds to recruit space mercenaries and get them to assist you. Whether it's a war or an assassination, as long as you can afford it, they will do anything."
"…" Kisaka, Erica, and Carrie fell silent at the same time. It was obvious that they hadn't considered this before.
"In that case, what are we?" Kira said in a deep voice.
"Then what do you think our current actions are?" Sei Itō looked at Kira and asked with a sneer. Then, he ignored Kira and continued to look at Kisaka, "Actually, I personally prefer the option of assassination. It can minimize your expenses to the greatest extent, and it can also quickly eliminate those stubborn members of the upper class."
"If it's just assassination, it doesn't seem to achieve the goal of ending the war," Kisaka said in a deep voice. He was obviously going to reject this proposal.
"Of course, it's impossible to end the war with assassination alone, but have you thought about the new guys in power? Even if they are still supporters of the current ideology, can they still maintain such a high influence?" Sei Itō asked in return. Then, without waiting for anyone to speak, he answered himself, "Not necessarily. In that case, would there be any changes to the forces that had originally submitted to them? Will the opponents jump out and do something? Can't we use this as a pretext to do something? Then we can end this war. "
After hearing Sei Itō's series of questions, everyone could not help but fall into deep thought again. However, Sei Itō did not give them much time to think before he spoke again.
"At least as far as I know, there will definitely be at least three forces that will jump out when the time comes. One of them is the East Asian Republic of the Earth Union. They are originally a country that upholds moderation. They have never had an extreme racist in power, and they will not reject the adjusters. So without the influence of Murta-Aztlar of the Blue Persian Chrysanthemum and the chaotic oppression of the Atlantic Federation after the assassination, they will definitely immediately stop this' enemy or me 'policy and maintain their national characteristics to continue living."
"As for the last one …" Sei Itō paused and turned to look at Aslan and Kira. "I think Lux will definitely jump out."
After hearing this, Kira and Aslan had different reactions. Kira frowned but did not show any dissatisfaction. Aslan, on the other hand, lowered his head and fell silent.
"That Pink Princess?" Mu asked curiously.
"Yes." Sei Itō nodded and looked at Aslan. "As far as I know, she seems to be a wanted criminal of PLANT and is being hunted all over the country."
"Yes." Aslan saw Sei Itō looking at him and nodded and admitted in a low voice.
"If Patrick Sarah is assassinated, then there will be no one in Plant who can command the entire situation like him and Siegel Klein. By then, the upper echelons of Plant will definitely be in chaos. This will give Lux the opportunity to jump out and use her great popularity among the people at the bottom to gain political support. From there, she will be able to influence the decision of the pro-Klein faction and achieve a certain goal."
"But all of this is based on the successful assassination." Mu pointed out the crux of the problem. "It's possible for one or two or a few people to be assassinated, but for so many of the upper management to be assassinated at the same time, I think it's impossible."
"Where there's a will, there's nothing impossible for this kind of thing as long as you're willing to do it." Sei Itō shrugged. "Okay, I've said what I need to say. You can think about the rest yourselves."
After that, he turned and left the bridge, walked back to the garage, sat in the small engineering inspection ship and waited. Not long after, Maureen and Mu appeared in the inspection ship one after another. They started the engine and flew back to Archangel.
"Your words today have probably destroyed your image in the hearts of Kira and Aubrey." On the way back, Mu smiled at Sei Itō who was sitting beside him.
"It's not that it's destroyed. It's just that your words have reached that point," Sei Itō said indifferently.
"But if we do as you say, it's possible to end the war." Mu sighed.
"But I guess they won't agree to it," Sei Itō said.
"Well," Mu shrugged and said. He also knew that among Aubrey's group, except for Erica Simmons, who he couldn't see clearly, Kisaka was completely obedient to Carrie. And Carrie was a little girl with a strong sense of justice. It was certainly impossible for her to listen to Sei Itō's suggestion, so it was most likely that this matter would not be known in the end.
The distance between the two ships was not far, so soon, the small inspection ship returned to Archangel. Then the three people walked out of the cabin and returned to the bridge, changing the destination of their journey to the L4 colonial satellite group.
…
"You shouldn't have said that today." In the captain's lounge, Maureen looked at Sei Itō and asked.
"I have to say it. You know, we are also participants now. I don't want you, me, and the people on Archangel to be in danger because of the ideals of those people." Sei Itō spread his hands and said to Maureen.
"You can't say that. After all, Master Naomi …" Maureen frowned.
"That's why I admire Naomi." Ito Mori walked to Marliu's side and sat down. He chuckled and said, "It's just a few simple rhetorical questions and a few philosophical words, and you're already fooled into fighting for his ideals. This method is really …"
"Don't say that." Maureen looked at Sei Itō with dissatisfaction.
"Well, it's his charisma that infected you and made you willing to fight for his ideals." Sei Itō reached out and grabbed Maureen's hand and laughed.
"Don't be so cheeky. Don't you think Master Naomi is right? What is the meaning of this war, why are we fighting, and who should we fight against? "Maureen looked at Sei Itō seriously and asked.
"Half-right, half-wrong." Sei Itō put away his smile and looked at Maureen with the same seriousness. "Maureen, you're not a child anymore. You should know that war is always a continuation of politics. Politics is a method to gain benefits. Before you start the war, there's no need to think about the meaning of war! As for why we're fighting, the answer is simple. When we're soldiers, we fight for our country. When we're individuals, we fight for our loved ones. When we're individuals, we fight for ourselves! In the end, what should we fight against? The answer is also simple. Everyone who wants to destroy the happiness of us and our loved ones, as well as our right to live, is our target and enemy. "
"… .I understand." Hearing Sei Itō's explanation, Maureen lowered her head and fell silent for a while before speaking in a heavy tone.
"Okay, don't always think so much, it will make your life very tiring." Ito Cheng pulled Margaret into his arms and hugged her, gently stroking her back and comforting her softly.
"Mhmm." Maureen leaned in Sei Itō's arms with her eyes closed.
"Also, when the war is over, you will leave with me." Sei Itō took the opportunity to say.
"Okay." For the first time, Maureen agreed without hesitation.
"It's a deal. After the war is over, you will leave with me." Sei Itō looked down at Maureen in his arms and smiled.
"Mhmm, it's a deal." Maureen agreed.
"That's good." Sei Itō chuckled, lowered his head, and kissed Maureen's lips. Their lips and tongues intertwined.
After a while, Sei Itō let go of Maureen and chatted with her in the lounge for a while. Then he got up and left the captain's lounge and returned to his dormitory to rest.
What followed was a twelve-day long space voyage. The two ships, Archangel and Kusanagi, finally arrived at the L4 colonial satellite group on June 30, CE71. They stopped at one of the abandoned satellites called "Mendel" that was still in operation.
Then on the next day, July 1, after a night of rest, Aslan applied for a small single-person shuttle from Maureen. Then he was escorted by the Gundam driven by Kira to the edge of the Zaft border military fortress, Yakin Duwei. He left the Gundam's protection and flew to the plant alone. He was ready to meet his father, Patrick Sarah, to solve the confusion in his heart.
However, the Gundam that escorted him did not leave. Instead, it went to the vicinity of Yakin Duwei every day to wait for Aslan's return. Just like this, time turned again to July 5. A high-speed pink battleship suddenly appeared near Yakin Duwei and was intercepted by the Zaft. Kira, who did not want to meddle, immediately activated the Gundam to join the rescue after hearing the female voice from the broadcast. He then led the pink battleship "Eternity" that was out of the Zaft's control back to "Mendel" and merged with Archangel and Kusanagi.
