Yes, the man who suddenly appeared before them atop the enormous black-armored warrior was none other than Achill, who had been recovering his magic power outside Wolf Island!!!
"Damn it!! Since when did a mere reptile get to act so arrogant in this world?!! Huh?!! Bankai—" He slowly raised his sword-bearing right hand, and the enormous black-armored warrior beneath him raised its massive, razor-sharp black blade in unison! Through gritted teeth, Achill growled each word in an icy voice, "Black—Rope—Punishment—King!!! You insect! You damned ugly insect—"
"Just be a good little bug and die!!!!!!"
With that, he brought his right arm down savagely! At the same instant, the enormous blade crashed down toward the back of Acnologia's head!!!
Clang—!
Sparks flew! Amid a deafening roar of impact, the enormous black blade slammed into the back of Acnologia's head, sending a dazzling shower of golden sparks bursting into the air—
"ROAR—!" The force from behind made Acnologia stagger forward involuntarily. A mere ant had actually managed to ambush him! He threw back his head and roared, then whipped it violently, flinging Makarov, who had been clinging tightly to his neck, forward with tremendous force—
"What are you doing, you damned brat?!! I'm all that's needed here!!! Hurry up and take everyone else away while you still can—" His enormous body slammed into the ground, the sheer force sending him rolling a considerable distance across it. The violent impact immediately made torrents of crimson blood gush from Makarov's chest! Even so, he scrambled straight back to his feet and bellowed with wide, furious eyes, "Don't throw away your young life on a moment of recklessness!!! No human can stand against this thing!!! Give up!! Hurry and take everyone away!! Achill, the True God of Death!!! Don't let my sacrifice go to waste—"
