Technical and Historical Notes
Neo China's entry in the 13th Gundam Fight was a continuation of thousands of years of martial arts traditions. The GF13-011NC Dragon Gundam was designed to be used by a skilled martial artist, in this case Sai Saici. Sai's martial arts pedigree has a long tradition behind it. Sai was trained in the fighting style of the ancient Shaolin Buddhist monks, which have not been very popular since the establishment of the Neo China space colony. Sai's father was a martial artist who succumbed to a wasting disease, and his grandfather Sai Feilong was also a Gundam Fighter and used the GF4-005NC Feilong Gundam in the 4th Gundam Fight. Raised by overprotective monks Zuisen and Keiun, it was their hope that Sai Saici would win the 13th Gundam Fight and convince the government of Neo China to restore the Shaolin temple to its former glory.
The Dragon Gundam was equipped with a variety of weapons that made it a formidable match for any opponent, including the undefeated Domon Kasshu. The Gundam's arms, called Dragon claws, were extendable and able to grab an opponent from a long distance and shoot fire. The Dragon Gundam was also equipped with a long braid called a benpatto, which could be used as a close combat stinging weapon. The Gundam also carried a dozen feilong flags, which were used for the finishing move known as the Houka Kyouten Juuzetsujin. This move involved planting the feilong flags around an opponent to trap them, allowing Sai to move in and finish them off. This nearly unbeatable move was countered by Domon Kasshu, but the match between him and Sai ended in a draw. Throughout the 13th Gundam Fight Sai would hang around Domon as a friend and member of the Shuffle Alliance. He also trained in the Guyana Highlands and developed his own Hyper Mode and a new finishing move, the Shin Ryuusei Kochouken. This ultimate Shaolin attack created a pair of butterfly wings and makes the Gundam much more powerful, but it also required the sacrifice of the pilot's life. In a battle with Domon's GF13-017NJII God Gundam, Sai performed the move but managed to survive. Despite a draw and a loss to Domon, the Dragon Gundam qualified for the Finals and the Battle Royale and participated in the final battle against the JDG-00X Devil Gundam.
