Konnichiwa, this is my first report.
In my patrol around the New Tokyo Tradelanes I encountered a freelance smuggler who was hauling Artifacts, he proceeded down the tradelane from Planet New Tokyo to the Shikoku Jump gate while I chased him. The lane was then interrupted by two Outcast Very Heavy Fighters who attempted to pirate the smuggler right in front of me. I managed to receive help from Nito Kaii Mitsu Toshi-san, who was patrolling the Shikoku system. After a short dog fight, the Outcast's cobbled together fighters gave up on their pilots and blew up. During the fight the smuggler escaped towards Shikoku, while we were fighting the two Outcasts.
After we destroyed the Outcasts we went to the Shikoku System to look for the Smuggler, I searched up to the Ames Research Station in Kepler before returning while Toshi-san patrolled Shikoku. Unfortunately we were unable to find the smuggler.
When we returned Toshi-san ended his patrol. I returned to New Tokyo to continue patrolling, after one loop of the tradelanes, Nito Kaii Taisuke Bei-san asked me to come to Shikoku to patrol around Battleship Myoko while he searched Kepler for another Smuggler. Then Bei-san had made sighted a Zoner Destroyer Class Capital ship, the Zoner entered Shikoku and we managed to turn him around back into Kepler at Deshima Station.

With Bei-san guarding the border again, I went to continue my patrol around New Tokyo when I made contact with the honor-less Blood Dragons and was engaged by their single fighter while they moved four gunboats, two destroyers and a battleship in a convoy through New Tokyo, nearby Planet New Tokyo. I reported their positions before I engaged the Blood Dragon's Very Heavy Fighter, who was left behind to prevent me from following the convoy. After a few passes with the fighter, the pilot activated all of his mines at once and blew up my ship and his as we were fighting.
My pod was picked up by a patrol and sent to the Naval base on Planet New Tokyo where I am now. Thankfully the technology fitted within my Chimaera's Escape Pod prevented me from sustaining any major injuries.
