Fiamma of the Right ordered Agnes to unleash the Roman Orthodox Church’s devastating “Dinner Fish” technique against Academy City. In District 7, Kamijou Touma broke his right arm blocking its first strike, and Roy prepared to use the mysterious right hand emerging above his shoulder as another attack approached.

• Fiamma of the Right forced Agnes to activate “Dinner Fish” against Academy City while insisting that his right hand could save the world.

Roy used Divine Right to destroy Dinner Fish and the Adriatic Sea Queen's Fleet, then defeated Fiamma of the Right when the latter's own power joined Roy's hand. Fiamma survived the battle, questioned what had happened, and resolved to seek a spiritual item from the British Royal Family so he could obtain Index's knowledge and unlock his power.
