[12:33] Iona     To meet Gunzou, the son of     Chihaya Shouzou, and obey him. [12:38] Iona     That is the only order that     remains in my memory.

[17:55] Sign 1756     Nagasaki, Splinter Capital SIGN    Kamikage Ryuujirou Assistant Secretary, Ministry of Military Affairs [18:03] Kamikage     Nice work on the SSTO job, Chihaya Gunzou-kun. [18:08] Gunzou     So you're Kamikage-san, our client? [18:11] Gunzou     If you had hired us earlier, [18:14] Gunzou     we could have reduced the     damage taken by the military. [18:16] Kamikage     Due to the Fog's jamming, [18:17] Kamikage     we cannot use long-range comm systems. [18:20] Kamikage     Don't ask the impossible of us. [18:22] Kamikage     Besides, we adults have our reasons. [18:25] Gunzou     Politics, is that it? [18:27] Gunzou     That's an excuse. [18:29] Gunzou     It's just a detour, isn't that right? [18:33] Kamikage     Not everyone can do as you do. [18:35] Kamikage     Someone has to do the dirty work, too. [18:38] Gunzou     Is that so? [18:41] Gunzou     Well, we have finished the job. [18:43] Gunzou     We'll be leaving now. [18:45] Kamikaze     Will you stop that? [18:46] Kamikaze     If anything were to happen to him... [18:49] Kamikaze     she will attack us. [18:53] Kamikage     Chihaya-kun, will your battles lead     to a way out of this impasse? [18:58] Kamikage     Don't misunderstand. [19:00] Kamikage     I think highly of your combat     records over the past [19:04] ---     two years in your battle against the Fog. [19:07] Gunzou     What's your point? [19:10] Kamikage     We just received word that the SSTO     was destroyed while in orbit. [19:18] Kamikage     In it was a sample of a new     weapon developed by Japan, [19:21] Kamikage     the vibration warhead. [19:24] Gunzou     Vibration warhead? [19:25] Kamikage     Indeed. [19:27] Kamikage     It is not as though we were     idle during the two years [19:31] Kamikage     that you were taking on the Fog by yourself. [19:34] Gunzou     Why America? [19:35] Kamikage     Japan no longer has the resources     to manufacture them en masse. [19:40] Kamikage     Chihaya Gunzou-kun, [19:42] Kamikage     I'd like to ask another task of you. [19:45] Kamikage     I'd like you to carry the hope of humanity... [19:48] Kamikage     our last hope. [19:51] K     A new weapon? [19:53] K     A torpedo, then? [19:55] Sou     It seems they have finished analyzing     the Fog's corrosive torpedo [19:58] Sou     and made further improvements. [20:00] Sou     Much of it is a black box, [20:02] Sou     but it does seem that man could strike back [20:04] Sou     if this can be mass produced. [20:08] Gunzou     If America still even exists. [20:10] K     Don't be such a downer. [20:12] Gunzou     The secret agreement with America     was made three months ago, [20:17] Gunzou     after which all communications ceased. [20:18] Gunzou     We don't know what things     are like there, now. [20:21] Iori     Iona, are you sure you can't tell? [20:23] Iona     I am cut off from the fleet. [20:27] Iona     All I know is what I've been able to detect. [20:31] Iori     That's true... [20:32] Shizuka     So, direct transport by sea is our only option. [20:35] K     They do say the continent      is torn by civil strife. [20:38] K     It'd be too dangerous to go by land. [20:42] Shizuka     To think we can't trust our fellow humans. [20:45] Sou     And that's why you took the job, Captain? [20:48] Gunzou     Yeah. [20:49] Gunzou     We're the only ones who     can make this happen. [20:53] Gunzou     The handoff for the new      weapon sample will take place [20:55] ---     at the Port of Yokosuka. [20:56] Iona     Understood. [20:58] Iona     Setting course for Yokosuka. [21:00] Gunzou     Let's go get this last hope for humanity. [21:07] Kamikage     Hope for humanity, huh? [21:11] Security     Couldn't we have subdued I-401? [21:15] Kamikage     401 is sentient. [21:18] Kamikage     It only obeys Chihaya Gunzou. [21:21] Security     Because it has a Mental Model? [21:24] Kamikage     A traitor to the Fog,     and a traitor to humanity...
