After Shiki Ryougi encountered a mysterious being beyond her Mystic Eyes, Touko and Bai Mo investigated Araya Souren’s threat against her and prepared for a possible fight.

Bai Mo and Shiki Ryougi defeated Araya Souren, but a resurrected Giant Shark emerged and overwhelmed them. Bai Mo saved Shiki and others at great cost, while Giant Shark unleashed a massacre across Mifune City.

• Bai Mo confronted Araya Souren at Ogawa Apartment and destroyed his fused body, but held back after realizing Kirie Fujou could be killed with the building.

At the brink of defeat, Bai Mo completed a simplified Ultimate True Form and stopped Giant Shark’s strike, prompting the Heavenly King to face him in earnest.

Giant Shark Heavenly King overwhelmed Bai Mo with God-Severing Way while Jeanne d'Arc repeatedly died protecting Shiki Ryougi and the others.

• Bai Mo protected Jeanne d'Arc from Giant Shark and met his final attack with an enhanced Orca Tyrant Fist.

Giant Shark returned to his damaged system space while Kebao mocked his defeat, as the system’s synthetic soul took over Bai Mo’s body and fought the Heroic Spirits. Unable to undo Bai Mo’s Magnetic Field Heavenly Lock, the man wasted the system’s stolen power, and the system ordered him to kill most of the world’s population to weaken Alaya Consciousness.

• As the Heroic Spirits reappeared, the system told the man to kill people until fewer than one in ten remained alive, hoping to drain Alaya Consciousness’s power.

The Supreme Heavenly King, now wielding five hundred thousand horsepower, crushed the Heroic Spirits sent by the Counter Force and began destroying human civilization.

• Bai Mo invited Francesca to help him, arguing that she had nowhere else to go and could gain by corrupting someone recognized by Metatron.

Three months after the battle in Mifune City, the Supreme Heavenly King conquered the world and subjected survivors to brutal rule while the remaining Heroic Spirits sailed toward their destination.

Lio Shirazumi revealed that he had traded his life for magnetic-field power and tried to recruit Shiki Ryougi, who rejected him and drew him away from Noah’s Ark. While the others struggled against Scheherazade and her explosive familiars, Shiki faced Lio alone in the contaminated water.
