[Transformers] Changed the leader, I am under a lot of pressure

Surprisingly, the first task Optimus Prime gave Sound Wave was not to participate in any strategic decision-making, or to cooperate with the Decepticons, but to give him a short vacation.

"I know you lost the robot dog and you need time to adjust. If you want to talk to someone, I'm here anytime."

The leader always delivered straight balls in a concise and concise manner, which made Sonic, who had always been accustomed to Decepticon-style communication, a little bit astonished.And the mind reader knows that what the leader says is exactly what he thinks, that Optimus Prime is indeed mourning the death of the robot dog.

"Thank you for your kindness, no need. I'm fine."

Almost without thinking, he just answered.

"No, old man, you're not good at all. I know you as well as I know Megatron, this is not a Decepticon base, and you are not facing a Decepticon leader, so there is no need to suppress your weakness to cover up your weakness." Sad. What you have is what I don't have."

Soundwave doesn't quite understand what the Leader means, though he knows Optimus Prime really thinks so.So he agreed to come down, as a vacation for himself.During this period of time, he sorted out all the materials related to the robot dog, reviewed them constantly, edited the key points, and made something similar to a memoir.

'...Even if I'm gone, someone will know about its life—a warrior, a Cybertronian's life.It is my most important mentor. '

Soundwave thought so.

But reality soon interrupted his hard-won vacation for millions of years.He was notified by the police car that there was a strange signal near a certain galaxy, and Optimus Prime thought it was very important, so he went straight there.As a result, they lost contact with Optimus Prime.Even if the police car hated sound waves, he had to admit that this Decepticon, this Cybertronian, was the only person in the entire galaxy he knew who could contact Optimus Prime.Soundwave has strong communication and radio wave search capabilities, he is the best communicator, bar none.

"Coordinates, orientation, instruments."

Once at the Autobots' communications control center, Soundwave cuts straight to the point.

"Here. See if you can contact him? I know you Decepticons still monopolize some technical resources."

Arcy said with a slight complaint, in fact, this was what the police car told her, and she used her mouth to put some pressure on the current top leader of the Decepticons.Peace?Yes, peace is good.But Cop would prefer a one-party world with only Autobots.As long as the Decepticons exist, there will still be disputes in the future. When the Autobots have the upper hand, collecting as much information as possible is also an important strategy.

It's a pity that what she's facing is Soundwave. The intelligence officer—now part-time intelligence officer for both Decepticons and Autobots, of course knows what she's thinking.But he didn't need to express it to make the other party more vigilant.

"Understood. Optimus Prime has not been upgraded recently, and his communication system is still old-fashioned. The communication equipment you are using now is just right."

Walking to the computer, Sonic tapped on the keyboard with his dexterous fingers, adjusted the coordinates and orientation, and corrected the communication system, and soon blurred light spots appeared on the screen.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the light spot, at least they did not lose contact with the leader, which was much better than the worst situation.

Soundwave made contact with Optimus Prime, but the signal was very weak, with severe lag.In this way, no one can be sure how long ago the signal they received was sent, and the time lag poses a high risk.For example, even if Optimus Prime gave them a message: It doesn’t matter, everything is normal and will return soon; it doesn’t mean that everything is really normal, because this may be a signal from a day or a week ago, and now Optimus Prime is probably already In trouble.Not being able to adjust for comm jetlag poses a time-lapse risk, which is the last thing other Autobots want.

"The most important thing is that he always thinks that he is not special, although he always tries to shoulder all the responsibilities. He always thinks that someone else can protect us like him, so he doesn't put his own safety first. But it's not."

Alcie's words speak for most people.As long as necessary, Optimus Prime can sacrifice himself for anyone, even a human child.He doesn't feel that he is more important than anyone else, which is why he often wanders alone on the edge of the universe to solve some terrible crises.

But it's not, at least, the people around him don't think so.Much effort has been expended to teach him this, and little has been achieved.

"Understood, I will find the coordinates and rendezvous with the leader. My communication equipment can maintain communication synchronization with the lowest time difference, so as to avoid high risks."

Seeing that Alcie was still worried, Sonic added.

"I'll bring him back as soon as possible."

"Oh, but I don't think you'll be able to convince him, I mean, try your best buddy." The space saucer shrugged, clearly not giving much hope that Sonic would get the job done.

And so, Soundwave had to travel to the edge of a strange galaxy in order to find the leader of the Autobots.

He dared to say that even a year ago, he could not have imagined himself taking part in such a risky and illogical operation.

But he had to, for the Decepticons and himself.Now the two factions are able to maintain a dangerous balance only because of Optimus Prime alone. If something happens to him, the war may break out again.

Soundwave is not afraid of war, just as he followed the rebellious Megatron back then without hesitation.

But he didn't want to start a war where the Decepticons had no chance of winning.He has self-knowledge that his personality is not suitable for being a leader. All the Decepticons respect him but fear him, not because of his strength, but because of his special ability and his personality that likes to control everything.To put it simply, I am used to collecting other people's weaknesses and holding them in my hands, which makes everyone who comes into contact with him terrified and choking.

Both Lord Megatron and Optimus Prime are very charismatic and charismatic figures with leadership demeanor.The most important thing about being a leader is to let others accept yourself, approve of yourself, and even love yourself.

Yes, you will fight for the people you look up to, but you will never be willing to fight for the people you fear.

Soundwave knows that he doesn't have this kind of charisma, so he will cooperate with Galvatron when Megatron is not around.

But anytime, anywhere, every moment, even now, he never gave up the hope that Lord Megatron would come back.

The robot dog is dead, yes.

Before the robot dog died, he passed a lot of information, something about Lord Megatron aboard the Lightseeker.

"He hasn't changed, he's still our leader. He dons the Autobot logo to help the Autobots, not because he's deluded, or trying to confuse anyone. He's just looking for the answer, the answer that we failed and they won. He eventually The one who will come back, Sonic, I know. Maybe it’s not the one we were familiar with before, but the one who’s closer to our ideal path.”

Until the end, all the robot dogs think about is Lord Megatron and their cause.

Sound Wave knew the meaning of this message, and the robot dog probably expected that he would not be reconciled, and cooperated with Galvatron and the like to achieve his goal.The robot dog was reminding him not to forget why they were Decepticons in the first place, and in order to achieve this purpose, Lord Megatron continued to go where he could not see, even if he was no longer the leader of their Decepticons.

'Don't worry, Robodog, I'll keep the Decepticons in top shape until Lord Megatron returns. '

So during the intermission, I had to give something to keep the Decepticons alive.

The leader, Optimus Prime, is still necessary.

This fact is full of irony for the current top general of the Decepticons.
