The first 200 lines.
The sun's about to rise.
Yeah. The time has come to leave for Saisei.
Once we drink to swear a Sakazuki oath with Teiwaz,
we can stand shoulder to shoulder with Naze.
We'll directly report to Teiwaz.
A farm this size won't make enough money.
Loads of guys with nowhere to go will want to join Tekkadan.
One day, I'll run only legitimate businesses.
To do that, I'll take the shortest route.
We couldn't stop if we wanted to. Can't be picky now.
We don't have time to hesitate.
Would Biscuit have stopped me?
I don't know.
But as long as you're not stopping, neither will I.
Never have, never will.
It's morning.
Mr. Makanai became Prime Minister of Arbrau.
Gjallarhorn's corruption was exposed.
The world was slowly but surely changing.
Tekkadan.
They became famous because of the battle during the election.
With rights to half-metal,
they finally became a proper member of Teiwaz.
To strengthen Arbrau's defenses that had been dependent on Gjallarhorn,
Tekkadan was made an official military advisor and an Earth branch was opened.
Their exploits during the turmoil were recognized
and they became a burgeoning company envied by rivals.
Miss Kudelia partnered with Teiwaz to establish Admoss Company,
which mined, processed, and shipped the half-metal of Arbrau colonies.
She also cooperated with Tekkadan to start an orphanage at Sakura Farm.
She works hard to help the socially vulnerable
and realize Mars' economic independence.
On the other hand...
Gjallarhorn lost its social standing,
causing public safety to deteriorate through the world.
As Tekkadan had proved the value of child soldiers,
masses of children were sent to war and the number of Human Debris grew.
Mobile Suits were recognized once again for their military worth,
and everyone started to restore and upgrade ones from the great war.
The number of Mobile Suits is rapidly increasing.
A world where powerless children are exploited...
will still continue to be.
"MOBILE SUIT GUNDAM IRON-BLOODED ORPHANS"
Slowly, slowly now.
I'll beat you if you scratch it up.
Excuse me.
I'm Hush Middy from the Reserve Corps.
The operation tests for the Shiden are about to...
Huh?
Nobody's here. Jeez.
What, this guy?
Sleeping again.
What's with him, seriously?
People call him "Fiend" or "Devil."
He's just industrial waste.
You better say that when I'm not listening.
I mean...
I guess it can't be helped.
Barbatos and Gusion are both being worked on at Teiwaz.
You're new so you haven't seen the real Mikazuki yet.
Roger about the Shiden.
- Let's go, Dane. - Yes.
When you're done, you can go to rookie training.
Yes.
What?
The real Mikazuki?
Hey! Your pace is slacking.
Run, you newbies, run!
I see a different horizon.
Zack! You want another lap?
What?!
Hey, Shino.
Take it easy on them, or you'd be like the First Corps geezers.
I know, but...
I'd feel terrible if they died because I was too easy on them.
You be nice to them, though.
They only need to hate one jerk.
Mr. Deputy Boss.
Hey...
They're fighting mock battles already?
Darn it.
Dante! Respond quicker.
- I'm doing my best. - Pay attention.
That Dante...
Shiden's Io Frame is based on Hyakuri and Hyakuren.
It's a mass-production model by Teiwaz.
I guess...
Their skills are too different.
Come on, if you guys don't sharpen up...
We can't go back to Naze.
I feel bad.
That's okay.
Wow, real Mobile Suits.
Amazing. That's their first time on it, right?
Yeah.
That's the Alaya-Vijnana System.
Yeah, that's true.
Or else that would be impossible.
Shidens don't have the Alaya-Vijnana.
What? They don't?
It's from the Calamity War and we don't know enough about it.
So they couldn't be used in Teiwaz's new systems.
But it can be used for things besides Mobile Suits, right?
For Mobile Workers and when you work out in space.
You're right.
You get all that power with just a little surgery.
Why doesn't the Boss let us have the surgery?
- Yeah. - That's unfair.
You guys...
We didn't have the surgery because we wanted to.
You shouldn't have to gamble on such a risky surgery.
We're going to build such a world.
All right, are you all rested up?
How about another 10 laps?
What?!
Go on. Get going!
Great words of wisdom, Deputy Boss.
You know, Orga is...
Boss is doing work that's not fit for him.
I got to help too.
You're right.
Hey, these numbers aren't right.
I'm sorry.
I checked the other two.
Thank you.
A call from Mr. Naze on the QCCS.
From Bro?
Okay. I'll take it in the other room. Put him through.
- Yes. - One more thing.
Send flowers to Eizen Company for their new office.
Yes!
Boss really is working hard.
At first, he hated just sitting at a desk.
Yes, I know.
How's it going, Orga?
Passable, I guess.
Come on.
You're the hero that brought in lucrative half-metal to Teiwaz.
Of course, some might hate you for that.
Bro...
But the same goes for me too.
Nobody likes a young upstart.
We're way below Turbines, which control Teiwaz's transport network.
Tekkadan is only recognized for our military might that walloped Gjallarhorn.
Not satisfied?
I could never say that.
You provided Teiwaz's latest Mobile Suits at a bargain.
And you're working on our two Gundam Frames, Barbatos and Gusion, for free.
We're grateful.
But we're not stopping just yet.
Yeah, looking forward to it...
Brother.
You've really made us proud.
I'm glad I let you speak
at the Noachis July Assembly when you were still unknown.
The Maiden of Revolution, Kudelia Aina Bernstein.
I thank you for that time, Mr. Gyojan.
Not at all. So, let's get down to business.
Next month, I'm going to hold another mass meeting at Chryse.
I'd love for you to...
Forgive me, but I'm refraining from speaking publicly for the moment.
I see.
"For the moment."
I heard you're going to invite people from other colonies
to tour around your half-metal mines at the end of this month.
Where did you...?
I shall help you with that tour as a noted intellectual from Chryse.
Excuse me?
Originally, your philosophy was greatly influenced by mine.
If I stood there by your side, I'm sure to be of some help.
- Um... - Excuse me.
President, it's time for your next appointment.
How dare you. We're still...
Thank you, Cucubita.
Mr. Gyojan.
I decline your offer.
My activities now require no philosophy.
In this day and age, words will get you nowhere.
His organization, Terra Liberionis, is hanging by a thread now.
He wanted a last shot at the limelight using your fame.
What a small-timer he is!
But he knew about the mine tour.
We shouldn't take him lightly.
How did she react?
Terribly.
Then...
Contact him.
Contact Tekkadan.
(CHRYSE AUTONOMOUS REGION MUNICIPAL BOARDING SCHOOL)
Tekkadan is really coming to pick you up?
- Probably. - Absolutely.
Sure they will.
Their brother is Tekkadan's hero who died for Mars.
- A heroic death! - Cool.
I wish I could join Tekkadan.
You'd never be able to.
Can girls join too?
- Isn't that them? - Yeah.
Is that Tekkadan?
Wow.
