Su Yunqing explained how Seiya Ryuguin’s extreme caution shaped his first visit to the Otherworld, from overtraining in the God Realm to annihilating a level-one Slime. The chapter ended with Seiya fleeing back to the God Realm after Chaos Machina appeared, leaving his chances against her uncertain.

• Su Yunqing said Chaos Machina seemed to be at most Dragon Level and that Seiya Ryuguin’s unusual talent set him apart.
• Su Yunqing explained that Seiya Ryuguin trained his muscles to max level in the God Realm before entering the area known as the Newbie Village with Listarte.
• Seiya Ryuguin repeatedly destroyed a level-one Slime with Atomic Split Slash and Hell Karma Fire until no trace remained, surprising the Chat Group.

• Seiya Ryuguin’s noisy attack on the Slime drew Chaos Machina, but he immediately fled to the God Realm rather than face her, and Su Yunqing said she did not know who would have won.

The group discussed how Seiya Ryuguin could defeat Genos Rhodes despite lacking the Holy Sword Ixphoria. Su Yunqing revealed that Seiya used the Ultimate Destruction Technique Heavenly Prison Gate, whose terrible side effects made it dangerous even for its user.

• Su Yunqing explained that Genos Rhodes had sent the Four Heavenly Kings and himself to lie in wait for the Hero, and that Seiya had simply encountered Chaos Machina.
• Daigo questioned whether Seiya could defeat Genos after training, and Su Yunqing said the Demon Lord was vastly stronger than the Four Heavenly Kings and nearly immune to physical and magical attacks.
• Rimuru guessed that Seiya would obtain Holy Sword Ixphoria, the only weapon said to be capable of killing Genos, but Su Yunqing revealed that Seiya defeated the Demon Lord without obtaining it.
• Su Yunqing explained that Seiya used Heavenly Prison Gate, a technique originating with Valkyrie that imprisoned and destroyed its target but inflicted severe side effects on its user.

After Saitama survived Chaos Machina’s magic, she grew furious and transformed into her true form to reveal her full power. The Chat Group watched her transformation and joked about her muscular appearance as the battle continued.

• Su Yunqing said she would upload the Cautious Hero Memory Copy after the battle and noted that Saitama’s arrival meant no one else from that world could join the Chat Group.

• Chaos Machina attacked Saitama, but his punch overwhelmed her almost instantly and left the ground before him empty.
• The Live Broadcast Room members realized that Saitama had ended the battle with one punch, and Tony Stark suggested he had used a Serious Punch.

Saitama killed Chaos Machina with a Serious Punch, then learned that she had been among Gaeabrande’s strongest warriors. Unable to challenge the Demon Lord without a special means of killing him, Saitama set out to earn Points from monsters while Su Yunqing uploaded the Cautious Hero memory copy.

• Saitama wondered whether Chaos Machina had escaped, and Tony Stark reminded him that he had killed her.
• Su Yunqing explained that Chaos Machina had been powerful in Gaeabrande, but Saitama’s Serious Punch had erased her body.
• Su Yunqing told Saitama that the Demon Lord could not be killed without the Holy Sword or Heavenly Prison Gate, so Saitama decided to return to his world.
• Su Yunqing asked Saitama to kill monsters carefully so their bodies could be exchanged for Points, and he went to search for them.
• Su Yunqing uploaded the Cautious Hero memory copy and explained that Gaeabrande was one of many worlds under the God Realm.

After watching Seiya Ryuguin’s story, the group learned that his extreme caution and apparent indifference came from losing his lover, unborn child, companions, and goddess in his previous life. The chapter ended with Seiya’s past self blaming his carelessness for their defeat.

• Saitama returned to his original world while Tony Stark, Marquis Voban, and the other group members watched the Memory Copy.

• Su Yunqing explained that Seiya’s previous life had been cheerful and reckless, and that his confidence and refusal to train left him unprepared.

• Seiya died believing that his lack of caution and preparation had caused the tragedy.

Umaru explained why Seiya Ryuguin refused to sacrifice Elulu to obtain Eksulution, choosing his companion over the weapon despite the danger of facing the Demon Lord. The group learned that the Holy Sword could have greatly aided him, but the account left his choice framed as an act of heroic protection.

• Umaru explained that Seiya Ryuguin gave up Eksulution because obtaining it required Elulu’s living sacrifice, and he disguised a sword he made himself as the Holy Sword.
• Umaru reasoned that Seiya Ryuguin’s caution had been meant to protect his companions, so he could not sacrifice one of them for a weapon.
• Daigo admired Seiya Ryuguin’s decision and wondered whether possessing Eksulution would have spared him from using Heavenly Prison Gate.
• Ordinary Group Owner said Eksulution enhanced its wielder’s attributes and speed, prevented its wounds from healing, and had even killed the Super-Conceptual Reaper.

Marquis Voban questioned how the Super-Conceptual Reaper could kill so many Deities, and Su Yunqing explained that the Unified Divine Realm’s gods had their power sealed while the Reaper’s exceptional strength lay in defense and survival. The discussion ended with Su Yunqing describing several additional abilities of the Holy Sword Eksulution.

• Marquis Voban recalled the Super-Conceptual Reaper’s pursuit across worlds, its near-immunity to attacks, and the Holy Sword’s role in defeating it.
• Marquis Voban criticized the Unified Divine Realm’s Deities for being killed so easily by a monster summoned through ordinary lives.
• Su Yunqing explained that the Deities’ power was restricted to a tiny fraction of its usual strength and that they had been playing around.
• Su Yunqing said the Reaper’s defense and vitality made it difficult to eliminate, but its summoned form lacked the strength to seriously threaten the Deities.
• Su Yunqing listed Eksulution’s abilities to break finishing moves, dispel buffs with rippling light, and deal damage that could not be recovered.

Su Yunqing described the Holy Sword Eksulution’s abilities, and the Chat Group discussed whether it should be recycled. Daigo argued that he could take responsibility for defeating the Demon Lord with help from the group, while Tony pointed out that Bai Xuan could nullify the Demon Lord’s special traits in his world.

• Su Yunqing finished explaining the abilities of the Holy Sword Eksulution and lamented that she had never seen the later Cautious Hero story.
• Daigo said someone might recycle the Holy Sword for its Points, though Saitama would leave it for the Hero.
• Su Yunqing questioned why Daigo seemed willing to sell the Holy Sword, and Daigo asked whether she would not do the same.
• Daigo reasoned that he could recycle the sword, take responsibility for defeating the Demon Lord, and seek help from the Chat Group if needed.
• Su Yunqing agreed that the plan made sense, and Tony said Bai Xuan could strip the Demon Lord of his special abilities in Bai Xuan’s world.

The Chat Group discussed the useless Legendary Armor and the brutal difficulty of Seiya Ryuguin’s world. In Australia, humanity’s leaders shared a feast and reflected on Balang’s Survivors, concluding that their choice to serve Mutated Beasts made them enemies of humanity.

• Su Yunqing and Kasumigaoka Utaha questioned Daigo’s growth, while Minato Namikaze noted that the Legendary Armor could also be recycled for Points.

Lighthouse’s Gene Warriors revealed that its power had recovered far more than they had expected, leaving the other nations to reconsider their own capabilities.

• The First Sequences considered how Australia and Balang had responded differently to the Mutated Beasts and feared that their own nations might face the same danger.
• After the Mutant Dragon battle, Great Britain, Japan, Russia, and other nations resolved to strengthen themselves after seeing the gulf between them and Huaxia and Lighthouse.
• They recognized Huaxia’s overwhelming advantage, including its numerous First Sequences and the Black Rhino, Earth Tiger, and Flame Dragon Armors.
• They recalled Lighthouse’s pre-Reiki military strength and how the Reiki Revival had allowed Huaxia to overtake it while Lighthouse suffered internal unrest and Beast invasions.
• Neptune’s appearance and his loyal, battle-ready Gene Warriors showed them that Lighthouse had made major advances in biotechnology and mass-producing powerful warriors.

Lin Kai and Kun Hu explained Lighthouse’s formidable technology and its decision to protect only a small elite, while Neptune compared its strength with Huaxia’s many cultivation paths. The chapter ended with the principle that entering the Dao required choosing a path and upholding it for life.

• The observers concluded that Lighthouse’s Gene Warrior technology and Sequence-level Espers made it a powerful nation, though they doubted it had surpassed the limits of Superpowers.
• Neptune revealed that Lighthouse concentrated its national defenses on a small population of elites, making its city exceptionally secure.

• Neptune envied Huaxia’s ancient traditions, which had become practical paths to strength during the Reiki Revival.
• Lin Kai and Kun Hu explained that Entering the Dao meant choosing a path and following its principles throughout one’s life, rather than seeking power alone.

At a banquet, Neptune and the other representatives learned more about Huaxia’s cultivation paths and discussed humanity’s future amid the threat of Mutant Creatures. After resting and absorbing energy from the Mutant Dragon, Sacred Cherry Blossom: Ming reflected on Murasame’s growing power and the danger of losing control of the cursed blade.

• Neptune realized that Huaxia’s [Entering the Dao] gave people a lifelong path to pursue, and envied the cultivation systems other nations had revived.

• After the banquet, the group rested and absorbed Spirit Energy from the Mutant Dragon’s flesh.
• Sacred Cherry Blossom: Ming recognized that Murasame’s accumulated blood had made it sharper and helped her catch up to Luoshui Sanxian and Ling.
• Sacred Cherry Blossom: Ming considered the risk that Murasame might tempt her into losing control and becoming the blade’s slave, a danger that worried Luoshui Sanxian and Ling.

After the international forces departed Australia, Sacred Cherry Blossom: Ming chose to stay and hunt Mutated Beasts so she could grow strong enough to approach the world’s most powerful Espers. She knew that her Second Sequence status left her at risk of falling behind, and planned to remain until Australia’s Mutated Beasts had been reduced.

• The Australian forces departed with their share of the Mutant Dragon’s remains, while Lin Kai and Kun Hu gave them spacious Space Rings to carry the loot.

• Ming decided to stay in Australia and hunt its remaining Mutated Beasts, where the authorities would welcome her help.

Sacred Cherry Blossom: Ming stayed in Australia to grow stronger while Japan's military held back the Mutant Sea Beasts. At a Japanese harbor, Shuten-doji appeared in his monster form alongside the newly awakened Tengu, who realized his memories and equipment were incomplete.

• Sacred Cherry Blossom: Ming decided to remain in Australia for a while, since Murasame ignored the weak Mutant Sea Beasts and the fourth Reiki Tide might arrive soon.

• Shuten-doji asked Tengu whether he had only just awakened, and Tengu confirmed his recent awakening and fragmented memories.
• Tengu wondered why he lacked a sword and noticed that Shuten-doji was fully equipped.

Luoshui Sanxian confronted Shuten-doji and the newly resurrected Tengu, whom he recognized as a potential Great Tengu. He deemed them enemies of humanity, while Shuten-doji prepared to leave and the Tengu challenged Luoshui Sanxian to stop them.

• The Tengu sensed a threatening human presence near the harbor, and Shuten-doji recognized it as Luoshui Sanxian.
• Shuten-doji urged the newly resurrected Tengu to leave before he was caught in the aftermath of a battle.
• Luoshui Sanxian appeared before Shuten-doji and the Tengu, blocking their departure.
• Luoshui Sanxian recognized the Tengu and considered whether he was a resurrected yokai or a human with Tengu Superpowers.
• Luoshui Sanxian judged both Shuten-doji and the Tengu to be enemies of humanity, and the Tengu challenged him to stop them.

Shuten-doji and Tengu escaped after Luoshui Sanxian chose not to risk civilian lives trying to stop them. Luoshui Sanxian reflected on Sacred Cherry Blossom: Ming’s desire for power, driven by her determination to protect Japan, as she pursued stronger Mutated Beasts in Australia.

• Shuten-doji left on his Gourd after pointing out that Luoshui Sanxian’s duty to protect people prevented him from fighting without restraint, and Tengu flew after him.
• Luoshui Sanxian let them go, knowing that killing them would risk civilians and that Shuten-doji could escape while Tengu was unrestrained.
• Luoshui Sanxian considered how Ling and Sacred Cherry Blossom: Ming might have helped him trap the demons, but Ming was already in Australia and still had not reached the First Sequence.
• Luoshui Sanxian recognized that Ming’s ambition to protect Japan was also a desire for power, and worried that her self-aware, bloodthirsty Teigu could tempt her.
• Luoshui Sanxian recalled that Ming had gone to Australia to face its Mutated Beasts and First Sequence Mutant Dragon because Japan offered few powerful creatures to fight.

Luoshui Sanxian worried that Sacred Cherry Blossom: Ming’s reliance on Murasame and its power gained through slaughter could corrupt her, and urged her to keep her blade turned toward Mutant Creatures, not people. In the Chat Group, Whitebeard recognized Luffy as the Fifth Emperor, and Ying Zinian explained how quickly Luffy had risen and why Whitebeard’s presence could accelerate his path to becoming the One Piece.

• Luoshui Sanxian reflected that Sacred Cherry Blossom: Ming could grow rapidly in Australia, but feared that Murasame’s power and endless killing might lead her into darkness.
• Luoshui Sanxian urged Sacred Cherry Blossom: Ming to control Murasame and remember that its power was meant for fighting Mutant Creatures, not humans.
• Whitebeard celebrated Luffy’s growth and acknowledged him as the Fifth Emperor of the seas.
