#04 The Battle to Seize AFOS (Zero)
The Unified Forces investigation team landed on Mayan island. They regarded the "Bird Man" legend that's been handed down on the Island as the Protoculture relic "AFOS". Shin, who had returned to the Unified Forces carrier Asuka as a member of the Variable Fighter unit attached to the Unified Forces carrier Asuka, also returned to Mayan Island.
