However, Jetfire stopped there for several seconds, his thrusters billowing black smoke furiously.
Jetfire turned back awkwardly. "I'm sorry, the thrusters are broken."
"I bet you were going to say, 'Don't worry, I can still fly even with one less thruster.'" Aaron quipped.
Jetfire shook his head repeatedly. "No, no, no, I really can't fly without thrusters."
"What a hassle."
Seeing this, Aaron shook his head and placed his hand on Jetfire.
The latter was about to say something when he suddenly felt a massive surge of energy pouring madly into his core. At the same time, his dilapidated body was being frantically reconstructed by some kind of power.
Within just a few seconds, Jetfire shed his original shabby appearance and was replaced by a stronger body.
"Oh my god, you can actually revert me to my youth?"
Jetfire was extremely unaccustomed to this new body. He felt a power even greater than his own during his peak period.
He knocked on his core armor, producing a crisp, loud clang.
"This beautiful paint job... this indestructible armor... I feel like I can really give the Fallen a severe beating."
"Wait, you wouldn't happen to be the legendary Primus, would you?"
Jetfire thought of something and scrutinized Aaron up and down.
"Enough, stop guessing wildly."
"First, look at this."
Aaron couldn't be bothered with small talk, so he used the power of [Data Dominator] to transmit "memories" to Jetfire.
Jetfire quickly digested the not-too-extensive information. But the contents within were enough to completely overturn Jetfire's worldview.
"A deity from another Universe... wielding the power of the Allspark, a mighty force like that of a creator god..."
"You are the savior of Cybertron."
Jetfire was both surprised and delighted.
Cybertron is saved!
"I am willing to follow you."
"Let us end the chaotic Cybertron Civil War together, so that transformers can live freely and without worries."
"I will take you to get the matrix of leadership right now."
Jetfire's attitude was very proactive this time.
Aaron had displayed unparalleled and immense power.
This was the best way to completely solve Cybertron's problems, a power that surpassed even the Fallen.
In fact, the only bargaining chip Aaron truly offered was: Infinite Energy.
The reason Cybertron fell to its current state was simply a lack of energy. But for Aaron, the one thing he didn't lack was energy.
If he willed it, he could restore the dilapidated Cybertron to its former glory at any time.
After learning this news, Jetfire decided to switch allegiance again.
From the Autobot side to the Aaron faction.
"I will now begin constructing a Space Bridge, destination... Egypt!"
Just as Jetfire finished speaking, Aaron simply raised his hand, and the two people and one Robot arrived in Egypt.
"Where exactly?" Aaron continued to ask.
Jetfire was a little stunned.
This method didn't seem to be based on technology?
Jetfire didn't think much further and stated another coordinate.
Aaron once again transported the three through space, arriving at a desert.
"Alright, I don't know where we are now. I have a symbol in my mind, but I don't know what it means."
"Perhaps you can come in and see for yourself?" Jetfire pointed to his head.
This was his mission: to guide those in need to their destination.
Perhaps, this was precisely the spiritual manifestation of the souls of the deceased Primes who were watching over them.
Aaron tentatively tried to sense the symbol.
He originally thought it would require some kind of decryption. However, when these symbols came into contact with him, they instantly transformed into a complete set of coordinates.
"Hmm?"
Aaron and Jetfire were both stunned.
"It seems... they have already acknowledged you?" Jetfire became even more excited at the sight.
"Who knows?"
Aaron shrugged, then teleported with the others directly into a cave.
This was the tomb of the Primes.
The Tomb of the Primes is a sealed land built by the sacrifice of six Primes. And within the tomb, there is only one item.
That is another sacred relic of Cybertron, the matrix of leadership, a symbol of power.
Anyone who has it will automatically become the leader of Cybertron and wield immense power.
At this moment.
A green rhomboid object rested quietly on the platform.
Jetfire looked at it with a sense of nostalgia. "This is what you need, and it is also the key to a giant machine."
"That machine was built by our ancestors, a weapon used to harvest stars for energon cubes."
"If nothing goes wrong, the Fallen is looking for it right now."
"Once the Fallen gets the matrix of leadership, he can activate the weapon, destroy the sun, and then you humans will be annihilated."
"I suggest you take it away immediately, the farther the better."
"It's best to destroy that machine, otherwise Earth could be destroyed at any time." Jetfire kindly reminded them.
Mikaela felt a little scared hearing this. These aliens were terrifying, destroying stars at the drop of a hat.
But with Aaron by her side, Mikaela felt a little more at ease.
Anyway, even if Earth was destroyed, they could go live on another Earth.
Aaron walked forward, took the matrix of leadership in his hand, and without further inspection, directly melted it down.
Having experienced Sam's journey in Transformers 2, Aaron naturally knew that this thing was not as simple as it seemed.
The matrix of leadership had the ability to choose its wielder. If the wielder was not recognized, then even if they obtained it, they wouldn't be able to use it.
And coincidentally, in this generation, only Optimus Prime was qualified to use it. Even if Megatron and the others obtained it, they could only use it as a key.
Aaron also knew that the matrix of leadership contained the consciousnesses of the six Primes.
Although they were dead, their consciousnesses watched the real world through some means.
After Sam acquired it, the matrix of leadership turned to ashes.
He eventually relied on his bravery, fearlessness, and spirit of sacrifice, as well as Optimus Prime's efforts, to restore the matrix of leadership to normal.
Then Optimus Prime was resurrected by the matrix of leadership, and after donning the equipment bestowed by Jetfire's self-sacrifice, he was able to break through head-on and defeat the Fallen in close combat.
This form of Optimus Prime was also his strongest form.
Aaron didn't have that much time to play house with the Primes.
