Remember the signal transmitters from before? These are from the same batch as those.
Our location was in broad daylight all this time.
The enemy launched a full-frontal attack on us, knowing full well about the time lag?
Likely, but the target's identity is still unknown.
That's just a little device in the old world, made to monitor the location of machines.
It's you—
Just another little use of this locational function. Originally for tracking Kamui's exact location, but somehow it's baited a whole flock of uninteresting prey.
We meet again, Babylonians.
Everyone, raise your guards! This is an Ascendant!
This time, you shan't get in the way.
...Watch your back.
Th-thank you... Watanabe?!
No time for this. Focus on the situation.
What... is this machine?
It's a Musashi.
I thought you'd long since ran off.
I don't like owing favors. And also, we've got some unfinished business with the Ascendants.
You aren't afraid of being caught by me?
Still better than losing my chance to repay my debt.
Very well. Now's not the time to argue, and we do require your help.
So I'll contain the target within your sniping range?
Yes.
How do I know if you aren't just gonna wipe me out along with him?
...You have a terrible sense of humor.
