EVA: Shinji Ikari Returns from the Dragon Clan

Chapter 61 60. Fish Angel washing machine, keep your clothes clean
Unit 01 has entered the battlefield!
In the deep sea.

The purple-green painted machine rushed to the side of the apostle like lightning, and the divine light was running fast, like a chariot holding the reins passing through a large area of ​​sea. The swinging force that made the entire sea surge became much smaller after the fish angel trapped Unit 2 in its mouth.

But even so.

Its outside also looks like a turtle shell that is difficult to get into.

Compared with the huge body of the fish angel, the high-vibration particle knife is too small.

Just like using a pencil sharpener to trim the pedicure of an adult elephant, no matter how many punches you throw at it with your Stand, Star Platinum Ora-Ora, it won't cause any fatal damage. Moreover, in a short period of time, the Angel has recovered from his injuries like a vampire that hides itself in the dark. Some of the wounds caused by Unit 02 before have become much smaller.

The two EVA machines could only try to cut a gap from the outside of its mouth, which had always refused to open.

Then go in through the gap and destroy the core.

He told Rei Ayanami his idea.

"Okay, Ikari-kun."

The answer came in a low voice.

But Shinji Ikari seemed to see the beautiful girl nodding slightly in the cockpit.

Then Unit-00 and Unit-01 started moving at the same time.

Although a lot of mud in the seawater was rolled up, the whole area was dark, as if hell had descended on earth, and even Unit-01 was obscured by the mud, the body of the Fish Angel, which covered a large area of ​​the sea, could not be completely hidden in it. The two machines quickly determined their position and came to its mouth.

Followed by.

The particle knife chopped towards the planned position.

The fish angel tried to shake it off, shaking around like before, but failed to dodge the attack. The same move was no longer effective a second time! A shallow wound immediately appeared on it, and then the two machines cut back and forth. Its blood mixed with the orange-red seawater, and only liquid could be seen flowing.

They really look like two bloody butchers.

Ikari Shinji wondered inexplicably.

Time passed quickly, and two deep wounds appeared on the fish angel's mouth. The two men tried to make a gap in it like cutting a fried noodle pizza.

At this close distance.

The fish angel kept tumbling over and over.

The two EVA machines need to pay attention to their positions at all times, as the surrounding sea is always turbulent. Fortunately, there is still Unit 2 in its mouth, and it has no desire to open its mouth to bite them. The danger is much smaller than the bloody mouth seen at the beginning, and the restraint of Unit 2 is still very effective.

But even so, it didn't open its mouth!
Until a piece of the apostle's flesh fell off, revealing the sharp teeth clenched underneath, Unit-01 drilled over, tested it twice, then used its teeth as a fulcrum and began to exert its whole body's strength.

Its mouth was gradually pushed open.

Unit 0 is also helping.

Ikari Shinji could vaguely hear the armor's wailing, but with the combined efforts of the two, the apostle's mouth was finally fully opened, and the red core in the throat was extremely conspicuous.

In this case.

One of the machines needs to enter the dangerous interior to destroy the core. Sometimes, the split operations in rubbish movies are actually forced.

After thinking for a while, Shinji Ikari said,

"Ayanami, I'll leave the job of holding its mouth closed to you."

"it is good."

The girl agreed softly.

The yellow and white painted Unit-0 immediately took over his job. Shinji Ikari carefully relieved himself of the pressure, a little worried that Rei Ayanami wouldn't be able to bear the pressure if he left suddenly. But Unit-0 did not disappoint, and even made the upper and lower spaces a little more spacious.

He glanced inside.

Inside is the blood of the apostles.

Those were the injuries caused by the particle knife after Unit 2 was trapped inside. Apart from these, the inside was slippery as if it had been hit by a greasy spell, especially in the sea, where there was no fulcrum at all.

The next moment, the underwater propulsion equipment burst out with thrust.

Unit-01 has already entered its mouth.

It was just like the Monkey King in the Journey to the West that he had read, who got into the belly of the Bull Demon King's wife. Unfortunately, he didn't need to borrow a palm-leaf fan or shout "Sister-in-law, let me out". Instead, he needed to directly eliminate the apostles here. The two sides were hostile in their stances and could not allow the other side to exist at all.

Then he saw Unit 2 lying inside.

"Asuka, how's it going?"

"...I'm fine."

Asuka took a long time to utter these words while sitting in the driving seat.

She thought to herself, idiot Shinji, what did you mean by 'I've done well enough'? Doesn't that mean that she didn't do well enough, so she still needs Unit-01 and Unit-00 to rescue her? For a moment, she had already thought about how to quarrel with Shinji Ikari when she returned, but she immediately gave up the idea.

Yes.

Even if he goes back, he will only say some comforting words, and he only expresses a certain degree of aggression when you first meet. You feel unwilling and you think he is a bad guy, but he will only look at you with a smile and say some gentle words.

She simply turned off the microphone in the communication channel.

…So jealous.

...I hate it so much.

This time, Unit-01 was in the spotlight again. Asuka clenched her fists. She felt as if something in her heart was twisted.

In the command room, the fiery red machine trapped in the Angel's mouth was also seen through the perspective of Unit-01.

…Asuka acted on her own.

Misato Katsuragi sighed. The original battle plan was to lure the Angel out of the tunnel and then have the three EVAs attack at once. However, Asuka ended up launching the attack alone in the tunnel.

She was shocked at first.

But that was the end of it.

We can only trust Asuka and the ace of the European Air Force.

The result was as expected, it failed.

Alas, thinking of the scenes she saw on the surveillance camera at that time, Misato Katsuragi couldn't help but feel a little regretful.

When they retreated outside, with Unit 2 outside, she thought it was safe this time, as she had the advantage of three against one. However, Asuka attacked alone again. Well, if she could defeat the Angel, then attacking alone could be considered as seizing the main opportunity. As long as she could win, it didn't matter.

But the facts prove it.

The Apostle is not a monster that can be dealt with by just one machine.

As expected, we still have to rely on Unit-01. For some reason, Misato Katsuragi was not surprised by this result. After all, the boy always gave people a sense of reliability. However, since it was a battle with the Angels, she could not avoid worrying.

Shinji-kun.

Is it really possible to do something like that?
"--Leave it to me." Thinking of that sentence, the female captain strengthened her confidence. At this time, she thought of another problem, which was about Asuka's unauthorized attack.

Wait until this battle is over.

Maybe I should talk to the commander about the pilots' psychological problems.

Misato Katsuragi thought distressedly, she was not a psychologist, she was just an older unmarried woman who was sloppy and an alcoholic, and was despised by the bad boy she lived with. Moreover, her ex-boyfriend Kaji had been doing something since he returned to Japan, and she had a lot of worries on her side, and there were often things that Asuka could not take care of.

Concentrate your mind.

She continued to watch the surveillance footage.

Unit-01 is already observing the situation inside its mouth. The most important thing right now is not to rescue Unit-02. That kind of thing can be done slowly after defeating the Angel.

The breakthrough outside took a long time.

Unit 2 ran out of power.

The Fish Angel had no intention of letting this machine go, but fortunately it did not have human-like intelligence and simply wanted to crush it in its mouth. It was not until Unit-01 rushed in and realized that Unit-02 was really motionless that it aimed at Unit-01.

It's so quiet in here.

Shinji Ikari seemed to be able to hear the sound of his own heartbeat, thump thump.

Unit-01 was moving forward in this silent tranquility. With the underwater propulsion equipment and the upper and lower space created by Unit-00, it could move forward steadily even in such a narrow place.

Nearly.

Shinji Ikari has already seen the red core in the throat. All he needs to do next is pierce it to defeat the Sixth Angel.

But the fish angel took action.

Only then did he experience the predicament that Unit 2 had faced before.

Death roll!

It had used this move before, but this time there was no way to say that the same move would not be effective a second time, because at this moment, Unit 01 was in its mouth and there was no room to hide.

The purple-green body immediately lost its balance.

Under the influence of inertia, Shinji Ikari's perspective was spinning, and he couldn't tell up or down, left or right, or where on the earth he was. Even the dead Unit-02 was spinning with it, and sometimes they bumped into each other, all rolling with it. Unit-0 on the other side had teeth as support and anchor, so it was better off.

Fortunately, it is impossible for the apostle to continue this action forever.

I do not know how long it has been.

Its speed slowly slowed down.

"Ikari-kun?" the girl asked immediately.

"fine."

The dizziness and headache disappeared a lot.
Fortunately, Unit-01's cable did not break, and Unit-00 managed to keep its power supply. If it ran out of power in its mouth, it would be dangerous, and it might have died like Unit-02. Shinji Ikari continued to work hard, and after the experience from the last time, Unit-01 did not stop at all, and this time it was only one step away from the red core.

But feeling him approaching the core, the fish angel outside rolled over again.

Again?

Shinji Ikari was a little upset.

He was now like being in an oversized washing machine.

Damn it! Fish Angel, you have such great power that you can wash all the clothes in the entire Third New Tokyo City.

He hesitated no more.

Unit-01 makes a final attempt at the red core.
