Houston, we have Liftoff (Part 2!!)


Ryusui: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! 

Ruby: Ryusui seems to be in a good mood. 

(Y/N): Yeah, ever since he was set to become the pilot, well ... yeah. 

Francois: Naturally, as one who desires all. 

Sci-Twi: Okay, everyone! Look at this! 

Sci-Twi showed a scale model of the ship! 

Senku: Really helps to understand what we're working with. 

Kaseki: Like how we whipped up the Perseus by blowing up Ryusui's tiny model. 

Sai was working on the calculations at the same time. 

Sai: Since we were kids, whenever Ryusui made his model ships, he'd always rope me in and have me run the numbers. 

After what seemed like a very long time, he created a flight simulator for the spaceship. 

Ryusui took it for a test drive and- 

Taiju: WHOA! YOU BROKE THE RECORD! 

Yuzuriha: This is his life's calling after all. 

Ryusui: OF COURSE! I'm the champ at this dinky simulation game. But our special space flight, powered by New-World Science, will be a trip into seriously uncharted waters. 

Weiss: You mean space. 

Ukyo: You're pretty darn experienced already. 

Senku: Actually, we might engage in a firefight in space. 

Everyone: WHAT?! 

Much later... 

Xeno: Moon combat is an unknown factor to us. 

Senku: Think about it, what is the ultimate weapon Why-Man has that we'll never be ten billion percent prepared to counter? 

Sci-Twi: Obviously, the Medusa. 

Senku: Correct, ten billion points. But have we ever been teh sort of dummies to rush to our deaths without a plan? No. We'll be facing the Medusa with two special science items of our own! 

Joel then called in. 

Joel: This is the first. A masterwork of my watch-making career! I call it the Resurrection Watch! 

Joel: With this, it has a single dose of Revival Fluid. Once the Petrification Beam strike becomes imminent, the user can set the timer for three seconds later, three minutes later, or whatever. 

Ruby: SWEET! We gotta get everyone on earth to wear this! Worldwide petrification will never be a threat again! 

Xeno: Did you not see it with your own eyes? The mountain of Medusas at Groud Zero? 

Kohaku: WAIT! So if the petrification beam attack can come in multiple waves, how could we ever defend against that? 

Tsukasa: Yes, however, the multistage attack has a fatal flaw. Should Why-Man decide to fire consecutive waves of petrification beams, the second wave, third wave, and so on would be delayed. That means after the initial attack, there needs to be a countdown before the next one. Before the next Medusa unleashes its wave of light, you must take action. 

He dropped a weapon on the ground. 

Senku: This is our second and final special item! 

Ruby picked it up! 

Afterwards a bunch of Medusas were gathered and Ruby fired a net, which then wrapped around and unleashed a chain of explosions! 

Ruby: WHOA! 

Senku: This is the Grenade Net Launcher! 

That night... 

Ryusui looked out into the night. 

(Y/N): You can't hide anything from me, Captain. 

Ryusui: Ha, guess I can't. I know there's someone better at being a pilot and a marksman. 

(Y/N): Well, I'll get him to train us. But first, let's see if he's willing to go through with it. 

The next day... 

Xeno: Ah, a wise pick for the job. No objections I presume? 

Weiss: ARE YOU CRAZY?! STANLEY!? HE AND XENO COULD GO BACK TO THEIR OWN PLAN! 

(Y/N): Don't worry, I'll go along in case he tries something. 

Ginro: WHY THOUGH?! He could grab a gun and shoot at us! 

(Y/N): No, the thing is, Stanley will do anything that Xeno asks him to do. And Xeno right now, is a member of the Kingdom of Science, so even with all the shit Stanley pulled, Xeno can put him under control. 

Ruby: Yeah, and since this is a mission to save humanity! This is the perfect way for him to make up for what he's done! 

Yang: Still don't like him! He shot us! 

(Y/N): Yeah. True. 

And so... 

You begrudgingly revived Stanley, and Xeno told him everything. 

Stanley: So, what's the job? 

Senku: I love it when they catch on so quickly! 

Xeno: Stanley will do any task he's capable of. Professionals are always quick on teh uptake. Sya you shoot a one-pound piece of ammunition with an initial velocity of 600 meters per second. On the moon's surface, gravity and acceleration are a sixth of what they are on earth, and air resistance is zero. Your target is a Medusa device. Exactly one millimeter away. 

Stanley caught it. 

Stanley: The firing angle should be 0.13 degrees. 

(Y/N): Are you up to the task? 

Stanley: Who do you think I am? 

He shot two bats nearby without even looking. 

Ruby: SO COOL! 

Much later... 

Sci-Twi: Now we just got to make our spacesuits! 

Sci-Twi presented the roadmap! 

Chrome: What's this by-null stuff? 

Sci-Twi: Vinyl. Also, before that we need an oil refinery. 

Gen: Indeed, the order of these inventions seems all topsy turvy. 

Senku: Heh, we got people all over the world to quickly run through the literal rocket science while ignoring plenty of other stuff we could make. So, how about some last-minute crafting projects before the moon launch. We can whip up just about anything. 

Yuzuriha: A washing machine! 

Minami: A video camera! 

Yo: A PS5! 

Muscle Man: A ROBOT MAID! 

Ryusui: A SLOT MACHINE! A MICROWAVE OVEN! A JACCUZI! A WINE CELLAR! 

Yang: We get it, you're greedy! 

Senku: Not possible to do everything. 

Soon... 

Sci-Twi: DONE! 

Sci-Twi made a Microwave oven for more rice! 

Suika: Wow, the rice was cold just a minute ago! 

Ruri: But how? I see no fire in there! 

Senku: The microwaves get water molecules in food all excited! You know how the TV signal gets crappy when it's raining? Same idea. 

Ryusui: (snapping his fingers) HA HA! And now speaking of reheating leftovers! We can take that vinyl created for the space suits, stretch it out, and you get plastic wrap! 

Nikki: In other words, we have 21st century dining again. 

Sci-Twi: Now for a washing machine! Spin a giant bucket aroud with a motor! 

Yuzuriha: YEunkeSS! 

Senku: Video Camera! Water, plus, sodium hydroxide, plus vinegar, gives us cellophane! 

Minami: EEEEEEE! 

Taiju: HEY! CAN I G- 

Sci-Twi and Senku: YES! 

Taiju: R-Really? 

(Y/N): Taiju, you are getting your smartphone! 

Ruby: That can be done? 

Chelsea: How do we get a touchscreen? 

Senku: Lots of different ways to make it. Add N-Butylaniline synthesized from Aniline to Toluene derived from petroleum and- 

Gen: This doesn't sound easy. 

Ruby and Chelsea: MMM! Smells like Chinese Food! 

Sci-Twi: That's because of the methoxybenzaldehyde. 

Senku: You start with glass with these groves, then pour Mr. Liquid crystal over it, and then until the substance fills the grooves in nice little lines, next we need gras with the grooves going the other way. 

Sci-Twi: They get sandwiched between the vertical and horizontal grooves while getting twisted. That creates a pathway for light. 

A long process later... 

Taiju: I DON'T BELIEVE IT! A REAL SMARTPHONE! 

Taiju: I DON'T BELIEVE IT! A REAL SMARTPHONE! 

A computer was plugged into it! 

Ruby: WOW! LOOK AT THIS! It's got text, email, and even games on it! 

Weiss: I still think Senku has an ulterior motive to this. 

Senku: Yep. I do. 

Everyone: Of couse. 

Senku: Our rocket is going to be full of touchscreens, because Braun tube TVS get wrecked by turbulence. 

That night... 

(Y/N): It's finally ready! 

Senku: We've finally made it this far. Starting with a single stone. 

Xeno: The Grand Launch is at hand. 

The rocket was done!
