Speedy joined the rest of the armada in a surprise assault on the Sky Patrol. Donning his exoskeleton suit, Speedy and two troops navigated through the ship's interior to find and secure the Light Gaia Chip. Although he is met with some residence from Sally Acorn, Chip's attempt to help her allow Speedy to easily capture the spirit. Speedy thanked Chip for his "cooperation" before taking him back to the Battle Fortress.[1]
By the time Speedy had returned to the Battle Fortress, he had encased Chip in a capsule and asked the battle lord if they should move in for the kill. The battle lord told him that they could not as there was no time to do so. Speedy later delivers Chip to Dr. Eggman in Apotos. He and the Battle Bird Armada is then tasked with taking down a G.U.N. carrier that was trailing the mad doctor.[4]
