In this short scene, we learn that the third Reich brigade has been utterly destroyed. We learn that a "necro soldier" has been discovered in the field, and that he has been using the brain as an electrical conduit to control his actions. We also learn that this kind of warfare has been practiced on mars, 200 years before. The narrator tells us that he never thought anyone had actually done such a thing, but that now they are so good at concealing it that it's almost impossible for them to detect a "nicotine soldier" . He also says that he doesn't yet know if alita is a part of the plan, but he does know that she's somewhere on Mars. He's also sure that dasein is somewhere nearby, so he's going to hit her with an "electro magnetically accelerated punch" , which is a fancy way of saying that he'll hit her faster than she can punch him back. We're not sure if this is a joke or a serious threat, but the narrator says that if he were serious about the fight, he'd have been dead "ten times over" by now. We hear that he heard a story about the "neo-third reich brigade" and "the einherjar" and that they're all "Necro soldiers." The narrator says he heard this story on the way back from the battle, and it'd be a joke if it weren't serious.
