There is no other explanation.
Asuka has already reviewed the information and knows who Rei Ayanami's guardian is.
"Damn it, after all these years in Japan, they're still so biased," Asuka muttered in dissatisfaction.
She and Yalin spent a considerable amount of time together, going from initially disliking each other to eventually reconciling. The experience they went through cannot be explained in just a few words.
However, shortly after the reconciliation, Yalin seemed to awaken a special ability and then decided to go to Japan, leaving her alone here.
This left Asuka with a lingering grudge, and she was waiting to settle the score with the other party.
The appearance of Rei Ayanami has made her even more unhappy, and she even harbors a hidden unease and worry in her heart.
That Rei Ayanami must be her substitute when she's not around. Could it be that Yalin got the order wrong?
Seeing his prized ace only fueled his anger, but the branch leader remained all smiles, completely unconcerned.
She was not originally the highest-ranking person in the German branch; several years ago, she was merely the head of the logistics department.
The reason I got to this position is entirely due to my keen eye for talent.
I once promoted a young man from the vast sea of people to join the branch and took good care of him.
Later, as the other party was transferred to headquarters and his position was continuously promoted, she was also promoted at the opportune moment.
Yeah, I won without lifting a finger the whole way.
As for the original branch manager, he was arrested for corruption.
It can only be said that in addition to personal effort, luck is also an indispensable factor.
She couldn't help but chuckle whenever she thought about it.
Therefore, he kept in mind Yalin's entrustment to take care of the second child before leaving, and was very tolerant of Asuka's personality.
"Minister, now that the Angels have appeared, when will we transport Unit 2 to Japan?" Asuka asked immediately after calming down.
She has to find Yalin, otherwise the gap between her and Rei Ayanami will only widen.
This is absolutely unacceptable.
"According to the original plan, there are still about two months left," the branch leader replied, after all, the debugging of Unit 2 and the development of various equipment all require time.
"Too slow!" Asuka couldn't wait any longer; two months would be too late.
“You need to change your temperament; you're too impulsive, and you'll suffer for it in the future,” the branch leader said with a smile. “According to the latest arrangements, you will be able to go to Japan in half a month.”
"The branch entrusted the Pacific Fleet with escorting the ship to avoid any accidents along the way."
"Those old relics?" Asuka muttered to herself.
Although the Pacific Fleet was once renowned and invincible on the battlefield.
But times have changed; now it's the era of Angels and EVAs.
If you really encounter an Apostle, those weapons won't be effective against the AT field.
"Emergency power outlets are also provided, so we can temporarily continue fighting in case of an emergency," the branch leader explained.
Even if we encounter an apostle, we might still be able to fight him.
"That's about right, thank you, Minister." Asuka's expression brightened, and she left the operations room humming a tune.
Just wait, First Child Rei Ayanami!
She will reclaim both the title of Yalin and the title of ace pilot.
Meal replacements can never replace meals!
......
Yalin suddenly looked up and gazed into the distance.
I have a feeling someone is talking about him. Is it Gendo Ikari or Fuyutsuki? It could also be Yui Ikari.
Sigh, being too popular isn't a good thing either, with so many people having their eyes on you.
After adjusting his glasses, Yalin looked at the screen.
The fourth apostle, the Angel of Day, has appeared and is heading towards the Third Neo-Tokyo.
This is an apostle that resembles a long, purple takoyaki. Its eyes look extremely comical, but its two tentacles, which can be waved at will, should not be underestimated.
With the appearance of the apostles, the city went into a state of war preparedness, and countless skyscrapers on the surface slowly sank and were embedded into the underground city, where they were completely contained.
Instead, a battlefield was set aside specifically for the Angels and EVAs.
When the Angel of Day arrived, Unit-01 and Unit-00 were already poised and ready to attack together on the battlefield.
At this point, rules don't matter; winning is everything.
Unit-00 confronts the Day Angel head-on, while Unit-01 provides support with a cation rifle.
"Logically speaking, this battle shouldn't be a problem. However, Gendo Ikari will most likely cause trouble."
Yalin gazed at the man in the main seat, whose clothes had returned to normal, and was quite certain of it.
Once the replica of the Spear of Longinus arrives, it will be troublesome if someone wants to cause trouble.
Now is the right time.
As for where to start?
His gaze lingered on Unit-00 and Unit-01 for a moment, and he discovered the problem.
The systems of both mechs have been deliberately interfered with, making it more difficult and unstable to activate the AT field.
Tsk, do you really want to witness Unit-01 going berserk?
Yalin shook his head slightly, deciding to teach Gendo Ikari a lesson he would never forget later.
"Ok?"
Gendo Ikari frowned, feeling a chill run down his spine, as if he were about to suffer some bad luck.
P.S.: Happy New Year everyone!
Volume 1: Chapter 100: Rampage and the Price (4k)
Trusting his own premonition, Gendo Ikari immediately turned to look at Yarin.
Based on experience over this period, any unexpected or unpleasant situation is almost always related to this deputy commander.
Upon seeing Yalin's kind smile, he felt a sudden tightness in his chest. Could it be that his secret actions had been discovered?
Absolutely not!
Even the most mysterious Yalin has his limits; otherwise, he should have prevented Unit-00 and Unit-01 from going to the battlefield.
Only a true god knows everything.
Gendo Ikari thought to himself, then realized he had overreacted.
Even the Dead Sea Scrolls cannot be comprehensive; they can only record the general prophecies of the 107th century.
I only think this way because I have a psychological trauma from Yalin.
This is not a good sign, and this view must be overturned; he cannot allow himself to have such a flaw.
A few breaths later, Gendo Ikari subtly moved his chair, trying to get as far away from Yarin as possible.
He had to make an attempt before the replica of the Spear of Longinus arrived. Otherwise, the difficulty of implementing the later stages of the plan would increase dramatically.
To be honest, if he didn't have to maintain his public persona, he would have even wanted to use the N2 mine to blow up the Angel during the battle between Unit-00 and the Angel.
Unfortunately, once you do that, there's no turning back; you can only make a desperate gamble in a hopeless situation.
If it really comes to that, the first one to be blown up will be Yalin.
"Commander Ikari, you seem quite uneasy," Yalin noticed Gendo's change and asked with a light laugh.
"We must always take the Apostles seriously, as this concerns the survival of humanity." Gendo Ikari said, his hands clasped together, his tone full of solemnity.
These righteous words drew Dongyue's attention, who was curious about what nonsense her partner was spouting.
Gendo Ikari was trying to cover for himself and avoid arousing Yarin's suspicion.
Once Rei Ayanami dies, he will definitely face a storm of retaliation. We need to be on guard and take protective measures during this period.
“That’s true, but the Commander should have confidence in our EVA.” Yalin smiled, subtly tapping Gendo Ikari’s kidney with his fingertip.
Their gaze then turned to the battlefield.
......
On the battlefield, Rei Ayanami pilots Unit-00 and draws her high-vibration particle blade, searching for the Angel of the Day's fatal weakness.
Then, it quickly locked onto the red core located at the junction of the head and body; once destroyed, the battle would end.
However, the Day Angel possesses two energy bands radiating high temperatures, making it quite troublesome.
Rei Ayanami analyzed the movements of the Day Angel, then controlled Unit-00 to grip the sword tightly, instantly accelerating to the Day Angel's front, attempting a one-hit kill.
The apostle reacted just as quickly, its light bands waving in waves to create an impenetrable defensive layer, forcing Unit-00 to a halt.
If you try to get too close, you'll probably get hit quite a few times. This light band can cut and dissolve anything it touches, easily slicing through steel and iron.
Even if EVA is the one that is being built, it will still suffer damage in the future.
Not satisfied with its successful defense, the Day Angel chose to launch an attack. Its beams of light danced wildly, attempting to lash out at Unit-00.
Unit-00 remained calm and collected, dodging every attack like a battle-hardened soldier.
Occasionally, it would use a high-vibration particle blade to parry, attempting to sever the light band, only to find that its toughness was astonishing.
The two sides were briefly locked in a stalemate.
Behind the angel of day, Unit-01 had already aimed at its head.
Shinji Ikari took a deep breath and pulled the trigger, unleashing a barrage of bullets.
Four-fifths of the bullets struck the day angel's body, while the rest kicked up clouds of dust on the ground and buildings.
"Idiot, the smoke and dust will obscure the enemy's vision," Misato Katsuragi sighed, patting her head.
The timing was wrong.
