''[Name], don't tell me you're getting motion sickness?'' Stanley asked with a frown upon seeing the h/c nette's complexion turning white as snow.

She covered her mouth in an attempt to stop herself from vomiting inside the submarine, ''Yeah.... I'm fine.''

Maya saw the state she is in and commented sarcastically, ''Of course you are! We'll be here for quite a while so make yourself feel at home.'' She said with a wicked smile on her face.

''Please do the honors of ending my misery....'' [Name] mumbled as she rested her head on Stanley's arm, who didn't mind it.

''Gladly, I'll be sure to make time in my schedule for such an important event.''

"I'm gonna vomiyt......"

"Good. Throw up."

''A battle between fighter pilots is a race to be the first to lock on to the enemy. That means, if you get behind the enemy, you win. That's why they're circling around and chasing each other!''

Minami whipped her to where the voice is coming from, ''Well aren't you a talker! Mr. Manga artist.''

''I've drawn a military series before.''

'Crud. Body feeling heavy.. This is way worse than the nastiest roller coasters.'

'The G-forces are no joke...'

It was a continuous chase between the two pilots and with everything happening way too fast for any of them to see from the ship, the mangaka explains all the different flying techniques that they used and was impressed that 'Stanley' pulled the emergency brake midair.

While Senku is devising a plan, Ryusui muttered to himself, which caught the scientist's attention.

''I desire them.... those moves... I desire skills like yours!''

''Ahhhhhh! Stanley slid in right behind them!'' Ginro wailed seeing the enemy's plane right behind Senku and Ryusui's plane.

''Not good. They're in his sights. About to be shot down!''

''Get it now? A dogfight is about managing speed, altitude and energy, all as the world zooms by.'' Charlotte said as she imitated the commander's voice, which she felt like she's making fun of him. ''It's a 3D chess match where amateurs don't stand a chance.''

She then aimed at Ryusui, ''Prepare to die, junior science club. I'll greet you in hell when I join you someday.''

To her surprise, they cornered her by using a 'Cobra Maneuver' despite those engine are being used on a primitive plane. Charlotte knew what the aircraft is capable of, and it's only a matter of time before some parts fall apart.

''It's ten billion percent true that we're lacking the power when all we had was your fuel.'' Senku said with a calm expression on his face, ''Y'see, castor oil serves as ultrahigh-quality engine oil. Resource-starved Japan might not have the crazy oil output of your continent but we make up for it with ingenuity and desperate measures!''
