11 8 301 Kamui's pestering snaps Chrome out of his deep thoughts. The destination of this mission now lies right before Chrome's eyes.
12 9 301 Chrome The objective of this mission is to occupy this Corrupted spawning ground. Strike Hawk and the other teams will stay behind in Zone C to attract and contain any and all hostile entities. 2
13 10 301 Chrome (This other team is... actually...) 2
14 11 301 Kamui You've briefed me on the mission countless times, remember? 1
15 12 301 Chrome Countless times, you say? 2
16 13 301 Kamui You've been saying the same thing over and over since we got on the aircraft. Oh, and you also said: "If anything happens, you get out of here. I'll take care of the rest." 1
17 14 301 Chrome ...I said that? Well, in that case, this command... 2
18 15 301 Kamui I wasn't going to follow it anyway. 1
19 16 301 Chrome ...Where are the others? Why are their signals outside this area? 2
20 17 301 Kamui For Smith, one sidekick is enough. 1
21 18 301 Chrome You— 2
22 19 301 Chrome realizes from this conversation that Kamui noticed his concern and figured out his plan for the day, but he doesn't know when.
23 20 301 He instantly feels something—not nervousness, not animosity. Chrome can't really tell what it is. It's something he hasn't ever experienced before... something that seems to have burst his bubble.
24 21 301 Chrome What do you want? 2
25 22 301 Kamui I just hate to see... 1
26 23 301 Kamui slowly softens his tone.
27 24 301 I mean, I'm just trying to get that frown off your face.

33 31 301 1 Kamui That looks like it's all scrunched up with paper and wrinkles... The one you're making right now, chief. You aren't aware? 2

39 37 301 1 Kamui Ah, they're on the move. I'll go take 'em down. 2
40 38 301 Before Chrome can say anything, Kamui has already rushed off towards the Corrupted. He's about to pull out his weapon when he turns around, as if suddenly reminded of something.
41 39 301 Kamui Captain Smith! Well, you're not Smith yet, but I'll call you that for now anyway. Captain Smith! sit tight for my good news! 2
46 44 301 John Looks like the battle's already started. Chrome, I'll arrange for the support forces to pick you up at a location nearby. Retreat immediately. 1
47 47 301 Chrome And then I'll become Smith? 2
48 50 301 John I'll have to climb to the position I need first. But you did carry out the responsibility of "Smith". Soon, I believe, you'll become Smith, like you wanted. Now, retreat. 1
49 53 301 Chrome Do I want to become Smith? 2
50 56 301 John Hm? 1
51 59 301 Chrome No, Smith... No, father. 2
52 60 301 Chrome It's not that I want to become Smith, but I NEED to... 2
53 63 301 John Isn't it the same thing? 1
54 66 301 Chrome No. I've always followed your orders. The reason my goal is to become Smith is because I have no other choice. 2
55 67 301 Chrome Every action of mine is determined by your will... 2
56 70 301 John That is the price of your existence. What's the point of bringing it up now? 1
57 73 301 Chrome I'm bringing it up because I want my autonomy back. 2
58 74 301 Chrome "Once the shell called the body is abandoned, what does the human leave behind?" 2
59 75 301 Chrome The part that's left behind in me is Chrome. Not Langston. And certainly not Smith! 2
60 76 301 1 AniZhuanchangBegin Chrome I'll meet up with the other squad members that departed early. After that, we'll defend the place until our very last breaths! 2
