## Chronology

### New World War Arc

At the beginning of the Battle of Folk Strait, the combined fleet of fifty-three ships formed by the World Union set sail. Fleet Commander Brendas, who commanded Mu’s sixteen ships, was on board the La Kasami-class battleship *La Kasami*, burning with confidence before the first battle against the Gra Valkas Empire. He looked at the Japan Coast Guard patrol boat *Shikishima* keeping speed. He spoke to Captain Minilar, standing beside him, according to information from the technological division, Japan’s ships had extraordinary capabilities. They should be excited to see how Japan’s ship approached combat.

A comms operator on the bridge reported to Brendas and Minilar from the Holy Milishial Empire that two hundred Gra Valkan aircraft approached Cartalpas 130 kilometers away from the southwest. Forty-two Alpha-3 fighters were taking off from the Cartalpas airbase to intercept them. Brendas learned the Gra Valkan aircraft carrier positions were unknown from the report. He ordered to launch of the Marin fighters, preparing to intercept. The Marin fighters launched plane after plane from Mu’s aircraft carriers and flitted up into the sky.

After two Sirius dive bombers were shot down to the ocean by Oerlikon 35mm twin cannon from the Japan Coast Guard patrol boat *Shikishima*, Brendas and Minilar watched the Gra Valkan planes dropping like flies. Brendas asked Minilar if the rumors were true of Japan's accuracy. Minilar responded that Japan used its electronics-assisted firing system. Suddenly, the comms operator reported to them in the panic that two Sirius dive bombers came heading the battleship *La Kasami*. Brendas yelled at the crews to prepare for anti-air combat and turn hard to starboard. The battleship *La Kasami* began turning clockwise slowly. A soldier sat down at the anti-air cannon and manually aimed. The Sirius dive bombers fired back with their machine guns. The bullets slammed against the *La Kasami’s* thick armor, thundering. The soldier, who manned the anti-air cannon, took a hit from the unrelenting attack, which caused the attacks being launched from the cannon to decrease.

When the Sirius dive bombers dropped their bombs, Brendas yelled at them to port hard. The battleship *La Kasami* tried to reverse its direction of rotation to avoid the bombs. However, between the Sirius dive bombers’ speed and the acceleration of gravity, a bomb ended up hitting the battleship *La Kasami* and exploded. Brendas and Minilar heard from the damage report that the forward main cannon barrel, starboard anti-air cannons, and portside cannons had been damaged. Navigation capabilities were unaffected. The reports came in after the other that they had taken serious damage. Minilar had been painfully aware of the stark difference between Mu’s and Japan’s anti-air capabilities.

After the Gra Valkan aerial attacks sunk many World Union ships, the super-dreadnought *Grade Atlastar* of the Gra Valkas Empire’s Imperial Judgment Force had employed all of its guns to sink the Japan Coast Guard patrol ship *Shikishima*. The battleship *Grade Atlastar* came forward the battleship *La Kasami* in the southern strait of Cartalpas. Brendas and Minilar was shocked and couldn't believe that Japan’s warship was felled in a single attack. Executive officer Sitras explained to him according to the Mu intelligence department, Japan's warships had unparalleled anti-air capabilities, but in conclusion, the Gra Valkan giant battleship was too strong, and the Gra Valkas Empire also decimated Leifor with only a single battleship.

The 15.5 cm 60 caliber triple turret on the *Grade Atlastar* shot the shell at the battleship *La Kasami*. It rocked the center of the ship violently in the explosion. Brendas, Minilar, and Sitras heard from the damage report that the navigation failed, so the battleship *La Kasami* couldn't slow down. They had no idea where the damage was, but they couldn’t steer or decelerate the *La Kasami*, and it wandered off course. The battleship *La Kasami* charged toward land and ended up grounded on a reef. As a result, Commander Brendas and his crew were spared because they left the front line.
