The fleet in Brown City on the Moon had been destroyed, and a large number of privileged people were detained in Brown City. The chaos caused by the new Guyon and the disappearance of General Rabir finally made the Federation's higher-ups feel a little apprehensive. However, General Rabir's matter could not be ignored. The Moon and the new Guyon's simultaneous actions could not be disconnected.
This was a provocation, a serious provocation, and the Federation Army once again picked up their weapons. Fleets in the universe began to set off in the direction of the moon. Whether it was to rescue the privileged people detained in Brown City, or to take the lead in this temporary response to take the lead in destroying Xin Gene's outpost, the Granada base, in order to stop Xin Gene's attack, the moon was an important key that could not be avoided.
The Federation's army on the ground also began to prepare. All the Federation military bases around the world sounded the war alarm, but the Earth Federation seemed to have a procrastination problem. When the Earth Federation ordered the entire army to prepare, there was only a little time left before the deadline set by Xiao Ran.
On Earth, four black, white, blue, and purple fighter jets of different colors were parked on a boundless plain. They surrounded the only MS Gundam in a fan-shaped formation. Ozma and the other three were also preparing to leave Earth and return to space.
Cruzet and another old man with white hair and beard stood not far away, looking at the red sun that was about to set in the distance.
Cruzet suddenly smiled. Under the contrast of the mask, his smile looked a little mysterious. He looked at the old man beside him and said, "General Rabir, there is not much time left. Have you not made up your mind?"
This old man was General Rabir, whom Kreutzer and the others had rescued. The process was quite simple. Breila snuck in, and the fighter jets attacked all the surrounding facilities indiscriminately. Breila took advantage of the chaos to kill his way in, find someone, knock them out, and take them away. The whole process took less than ten minutes. When General Rabir woke up, he was already on the plains.
After Rabir woke up, Cruzet told General Rabir about the current situation. Then, he patiently waited for General Rabir's reply. Would he accept or reject? However, no matter what Rabir chose, Xiao Ran's order was to bring Rabir back. So, Cruzet would not directly kill him after he rejected.
"Federation … Federation …" General Rabir sighed. There was no greater sorrow than despair in his heart. He sighed and said, "I have done so much for the Federation, but in the end, I was treated like this. Who doesn't feel resentful? But resentment aside, everything I have now was given to me by the Federation. How can I abandon the country that I have worked so hard for for so many years?"
"Now that the moderate faction has joined you, even the civilian faction without me has joined you. There are also so many senators, military bases, and fleet commanders. It doesn't make a difference whether I am here or not. I only hope that after you succeed, you will not do what the Federation did to the universe and to Earth. "
Although Rabir's words were tactful, he still rejected Cruzet's invitation. However, Cruzet let out his unique laughter. Not far away, Ozma and the others felt their scalps go numb. He only wanted to ask one question. "Then, General Rabir, did you fight for the Federation in the past, or did you fight for those privileged people who got rid of you when you were no longer useful?"
General Rabir said without hesitation, "Of course, I fought for the Federation."
Cruzet's lips curled up. "Then, since you were willing to fight for the Federation in the past, why are you not willing to continue fighting for the Federation now? Is it because of what those people did to you?"
"Today's Federation is no longer worthy of me fighting for. Those people's actions have caused the universe's resentment to reach such a state. The conflicts that were finally calmed down have been deliberately stirred up again and again. Billions of people have died in a single war. Previously, it was to protect each other, it was a battle of life or death. It was because of the hatred between different races. But now, the war that is about to begin is the choice of humanity. Even the Federation is about to split. Who should I fight for? You or them?"
At this point, General Rabir laughed self-deprecatingly. "At the end of the day, your thoughts are no different from Zabi's. You want to overthrow the current Federation and rule this world. And my old friends in the Federation have never understood what they should have understood in this war. "
Cruzet nodded lightly and said, "Allow me to ask another question. If today's events did not happen, the Federation's attitude towards the universe's residents would be completely different. Everyone is working hard to make this world move towards a bright future, but one day, some people suddenly feel that the current leadership has infringed on their interests and start a rebellion, creating chaos everywhere. What would you do then?"
General Rabir glanced at Cruzet and said, "No matter what you say, I will not join you. I can also answer your question. Even if it's for the peace and future of the world, for the sake of true righteousness, even if I'm too old to walk, I will still fight for the Federation."
"For the sake of righteousness?" Cruzet's tone was somewhat doubtful. He asked, "Then, do you still have it now?"
General Rabir fell silent. He looked at the setting sun again and shook his head slightly. "Right now, the Federation is like this sun that is about to set. But if this sun suddenly erupts with the light that a rising sun should have, then my righteousness will live forever with this light."
"Haha." Cruzet suddenly smiled and extended his right hand to General Rabir. "Then, I welcome you to join us."
"What?" General Rabir was stunned. He did not say that he wanted to join Cruzet, who was obviously a rebel. However, Cruzet's actions made it seem as if he did not understand, or if he said that on purpose, which made General Rabir a little unhappy. "I didn't say that I wanted to join you."
"Didn't you say that if this sun erupts with the light that a rising sun should have, then your righteousness will live forever?" Cruzet retracted his hand and said to General Rabir again, "Let me reintroduce myself. I am Lao Lu Cruzet of the Earth Federation. Although I don't have a position right now, I will soon have one. We inherited the Earth Federation in the first year of the Federation, not the current imitation. We have been secretly protecting the original constitution of the Federation to this day. According to the original constitution, we will punish the people of the fake Earth Federation and those related to them who are harsh to the universe's residents and take the initiative to start a war. "
"What did you say?!" General Rabir turned around abruptly and grabbed Cruzet's shoulder tightly. "What did you just say?"
"The original constitution, the original constitution that was never made public when the Earth Federation was first established. The original constitution that completely disappeared in an explosion that shook the world." Kreutzer did not care about General Rabir grabbing his shoulder. Instead, he said calmly, "We have always been part of the real Earth Federation. It has been decades since then. During these decades, we have been developing in secret. We have also developed a series of technologies led by the M1 heretic. Our organization is the orthodox of the Federation, but we have never dared to reveal our identity."
"In the organization, there is no special hierarchy except for the duties of each member. It just so happens to symbolize the principle of equality in the original constitution. However, equality also requires a leader. Our commander is the former commander of the heretic fleet, Xiao Ran. His real name is Xiao Ran. This time, we came to save you because he requested that you join us and restore the glory of the true Earth Federation."
"Is there really an original constitution?" Rabir did not seem to care about what Cruzet said. He only asked the question that concerned him the most. "Tell me, does this original constitution really exist?"
Cruzet smiled. "Of course it is real. Otherwise, why would the moderate faction and Maxi from your faction choose to join us? If you join us, you will naturally be able to determine the authenticity of the original constitution."
"It's real …" General Rabir let go of Cruzet's shoulder. He seemed to be in a daze. But not long after, he looked at Cruzet with a sharp gaze. "Okay, I promise you. But if what you said just now is a lie, even if I have to risk my life, I promise that even if the civilians join you now, they will still shoot you in the end."
Cruzet spread his hands. "I won't joke about such things. Welcome again, General Rabir. But perhaps you will be disappointed. I don't think Xiao Ran will use the name Earth Federation. From what I know, that guy will probably come up with an Earth Unified Army."
Cruzet was right. Xiao Ran would not use the name Earth Federation. After all, the reputation of the Federation in this world was ridiculously bad. If he continued to use this name, it would probably inherit the previous reputation. And Xiao Ran was a person who was too lazy to think of a name, so it was very likely that he would choose the name Earth Unified Army.
Rabir looked at Cruzet's outstretched hand and snorted. "Forget about shaking hands. You look exactly like Arikos, no, Xiao Ran, that unruly bastard. You wear a mask and don't dare to show your face. As expected of one of his people. You are all cunning and confident."
"Is that so?" Cruzet touched his mask and laughed. "If you want to talk about wearing a mask, he didn't do that when I met him. But General Rabir is right. That bastard has always been cunning. "
