"You punk. You devoured an alien energy core and your powers went offline for so long. Now that you've just devoured a golden mecha core, can you even devour anymore? Don't be greedy." My big bro admonished me.

I quickly scanned the capacity of my red mecha core, and true enough, it was extremely full once more, and it was showing signs of lethargy.

After devouring the golden mecha core, whatever free space that my red mecha core had created in its acceleration of its devouring of Control had been completely allocated to deal with the golden mecha core.

I would not be able to fight for much longer, much less devour a single golden mecha core! Much, much less devour THREE full golden mechas!

"Damn it. I'm reaching full capacity. I'm going to be weak again." I cursed loudly and scrunched my face in irritation.

"Are you still able to control the mecha particles well?" My sister in law asked.

"Yes. As of right now, controlling them is still very doable. But I don't think I would be able to do it for too long." I replied.

"Focus on controlling those mecha particles. Spread them apart and reduce their density as much as possible. It might be too dense right now, and thus show up in their sensors. As golden mechas, their sensors are probably much stronger than ours." My sister in law said quickly.

I widened my eyes in surprise as I realized that she was right.

Without hesitation, I spread the mecha particles in all directions and as far apart as I could physically manage.

And instantly, the three golden mechas slowed down dramatically, before coming to a complete stop mere kilometers away from us.

"So that's the clue they are investigating." My big bro said in slight relief.

"Let's keep going. I want as much distance as possible between us and those goldens." My sister in law said quickly.

However, strangely, the three mechas slowly drifted their way forward in our direction, easily keeping pace with our near frantic pace.

I frowned lightly and changed the trajectory of the particles slightly, sending them deviating from our path by several degrees.

Within seconds, the three golden mechas started to deviate away as well.

"They are locked on into the particles somehow. I can send the particles away from us but there is a limit how far they could get before I lose control." I said as I reported the development to the other two.

"Bring the three mechas along with us all the way to Japan then. And send the particles into a secret Japanese Military Base. The Europeans would probably attack, and being stalwart allies, the Americans would probably defend the Japanese. It would be beautiful." My sister in law chuckled.

"Let's speed up then. The sooner we get to safety the better." My big bro ordered.

We increased our cruising speed while I maintained the golden mechas around five kilometers away from us.

The minutes ticked by. Then hours.

After around three hours, we entered Japan's waters.

"F*ck! I knew it was the Americans! There was no f*cking way they weren't involved in this!" Came a violent curse from one of the goldens.

I immediately looped the other two into the conversation signal I managed to decode. Having absorbed a golden mecha from their ranks helped me in decoding their encryption, of course, even though it was mostly my genius.

"This strange cloud doesn't mean anything. It still could be a natural occurrence." Said a calmer voice.

"Bullshit. A natural occurrence that brings us all the way to Japanese waters, against several critical oceanic currents? Only a freaking retard would say that!" Came the first angry voice.

"Okay okay. It's not a natural occurrence. But we still do not know what this underwater cloud is. Technically, we aren't supposed to be able to detect it. So we can't accuse them of anything. Plus, there is no direct link between this cloud and Princess Louisa's disappearance." The second voice came on again.

"Direct link? Are you a f*cking kindergarten girl? This cloud is almost DIRECTLY beneath the entire civil war taking place in the sky! That's where Princess Louisa disappeared! IT DOES NOT GET ANY MORE DIRECT THAN THAT!!" Roared the first angry dude.

"Alright fine. It's directly involved. This cloud kidnapped Princess Louisa. Go ahead and catch it and rescue the Princess." The second voice said in exasperation.

"Why would I do that? I can't capture a f*cking cloud of strange particles. I will capture the entire Japanese government and interrogate them one by one until they tell me where the Princess is." The first angry voice growled.

"Hohoho. This is going to be pretty." My sister in law giggled as soon as she heard what the first angry voice said.

"Send the particles into these coordinates to seal the deal." My big bro said.

I did as he said and within moments, the particles were in the Japanese secret base.

"The cloud entered that dumbass secret military facility. Enough evidence that the Americans are involved now, little girl?" Came the first voice's scathing remark.

"Do as you will. I will wait here with Boris." Came her instant reply.

"I will do as I will. And I don't need you. Or the mute." The first voice growled.

Within moments, the first golden mecha exploded out of the ocean and into the sky.

Like a fearsome black beast with torrents of water rolling off his body and falling into the ocean once more, he rose through the skies and up above the little round island that was the entrance to the Japanese Secret Military Base.

"YOU JAPANESE BASTARDS! YOU HAD FUN PLAYING US EUROPEANS AS FOOLS, HUH? LET ME SHOW YOU HOW WE DEAL WITH PEOPLE WHO TRY TO MAKE FOOLS OUT OF US! DIE!!" Howled that first madman.

He aimed his rifle down towards the entrance of that secret base, and charged it.

Hum!!!!

"Crazy bastard. But he would make the perfect cover for us to slowly disappear." My sister in law muttered.

"Be careful. Those two golden mechas are probably vigilant. We need to get those two involved first before we make our escape." My big bro said slowly.

KABOOOOMMMM!!!!

The charged golden mecha rifle unleashed a mega powerful energy beam which contained the power of a full powered nuclear explosion and vaporized the island!!

WHOOOSHHH!!!!!

A powerful shockwave rippled out of that rifle blast point of impact.

WEEEEEEEEEEEE-OOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

WEEEEEEEEEEEE-OOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

WEEEEEEEEEEEE-OOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

Instantly, extremely loud air raid sirens exploded to life from almost every single direction.

"That bastard actually unleashed a nuclear grade rifle blast on the Japanese! There is no way the Americans will not respond to this!" My sister in law exclaimed.

"They are already enroute. And by the looks of it, the Americans aren't pulling their punches either. Five golden mechas are enroute." My big bro said with a tinge of satisfaction in his voice.

"The tracking works perfectly, I presume?" My sister in law asked.

"Perfectly. The two goldens stationed by the South Korean - North Korean border are being sent this way. The two in Japan are already here. And apparently one the secret golden mechas stationed near Russia are on its way as well." My big bro said.

"Wow, you guys managed to crack the code in the golden mecha we caught?" I asked in amazement.

Being a country without golden mechas, being able to crack the code that went into one and then using it to track the secret signals of other golden mechas was truly an impressive feat.

"It probably wouldn't be long until the Federation's insane research team manages to design their own golden mecha." I thought to myself. "But it would be some time until they could make the mecha though. They lack the core materials fo- wait a minute. What the hell am I thinking? The damned ancestor just got a whole god damn Blue Dragon slave with all of its god damn dragon-level greedy treasure hoard! The Federation can make its own god damn golden mecha anytime!"

My eyes widened slightly.

"In fact, that greedy old bastard is probably getting that blue dragon to transport all of its treasures into his secret mecha production facility right now, while he whips his design team to work overtime to continue to unlock the secrets of the American golden mecha!

And not just that, if he combines the information from the American golden mecha with the European mecha I devoured, then wouldn't the Federation gain the ultimate technologies of both superpowers?historical

The Americans' highly defensive tech that would allow us to be as immovable as mountains, as well as the Europeans' highly offensive tech that would make our weapons unstoppable...

We would be able to burst out with overwhelming strength and gain the position of the top global superpower in one fell swoop!"

It was an exciting thought.

But at that moment, as exciting as my thoughts were, they were not as exciting as the events unfolding before us.

Five American golden mechas were about to face off with three of their European counterparts!

And just like a couple of market peddlers showcasing the abilities of their products, both ultimate technologies which would soon be in our hands would be going up against each other in a completely unavoidable and ferocious clash.

Their prides were on the line, and the good name of their nations were at stake.

It would be a mecha battle unlike ANYTHING the world had ever seen before.

A battle between golden mechas!!
