38F - Hell Train: The Dallar Show
Watching the video screen of the Slayer Candidate game arena from the Hell Train conductor office, Yuri remains excited that she's finally found Bam while Evan can't believe that the boy's been alive this whole time; wondering what it was that he went through to have been able to survive up to this point. On the other hand, Train Conductor Pedro remains suspicious as to why Yuri appears to have some sort of connection to FUG's newest Slayer Candidate. In return, Yuri provides an excuse that she's just interested after seeing many pictures of Bam.
Meanwhile within the Slayer Candidate game arena, Wangnan and Bam's groups greet one another while Hoaqin remains ready with Team Rachel to destroy his opponents. Team Bam takes note of how two other Hoaqin pieces (Vicente and Anna) have woken up as Bam notices that his friends being held prisoner are nowhere in sight. Train Administrator Poro Poe, acting as the game referee, then announces the Slayer Candidate game to be a deathmatch known as The Dallar Show. Poro explains how the game will be in 3 Rounds, and that it revolves around gathering Dallar coins to spend at certain times throughout the game until a Slayer Candidate comes out the winner at the end of the 3rd Round. He also states that Team Bam and Team Wangnan will be combined so that it's just a two team match between the Bam and Hoaqin factions. With Bam and Hoaqin named as the team leaders, Poro warns that people can be killed during the game, and that players who lose all their Dallar coins can no longer participate. The Dallar Show game then proceeds to split its coins evenly between the two Slayer Candidate factions; giving each player a random amount of Dallar coins to start with. The most a person gets being 10 Dallar coins.
Afterwards, Poro announces the 1st Round of the Dallar Show to be the Catching the Sweetfish Game. Before explaining the rules, Poro asks for all players who were randomly given 10 Dallar coins to step forward as the ones who will participate in the 1st Round. The four players that were given 10 coins step forward. Rachel and Buelsar step forward for Team Rachel while Khun and Bero step forward for Team Bam, which sets up a 2v2 match for the 1st Round.
Back at the conductor office, Yuri remains confused as to why Bam is taking part in a deathmatch game, and questions Pedro about it. In return, Pedro explains the Dallar Show's importance as the game that will decide who will be the new Slayer Candidate for FUG, much to Yuri's surprise. Pedro further reveals how Bam is one of such Slayer Candidates known as Jue Viole Grace who will one day become Yuri's worst enemy, and has the power of the Thorn that will slay King Jahad and the Ten Great Family leaders. The revelation leaves Yuri shocked and confused as to what's going on.
The revelation about Bam being trained up within FUG to become a Slayer Candidate enrages Yuri into potentially attacking Pedro, which is what Pedro's going for as he's scheming to try to trap and possibly kill Yuri here and now, which he continues to say the right words regarding Bam's situation to further agitate her. However, Evan keeps Yuri from falling for Pedro's obvious bait tactic. He calls out Pedro for trying to pull such a stunt, and questions where the conductor's loyalty lies. In return, Pedro properly introduces himself to them as a member of FUG, along with his order from FUG to run the Slayer Candidate match. Reminding his two guests that he has the power as the Train Conductor to instantly kick them off the express, Pedro offers Yuri a deal. That as long as Yuri doesn't interfere with the match, he will tell her Bam's Hell Train location if the boy wins the Slayer Candidate game, but that Yuri has to die if Bam loses. Yuri accepts the deal, but she threatens the conductor by adding an extra rule where she gets to kill Pedro if Bam is the winner, which the conductor accepts.
The 1st Round of the Dallar show begins with Team Hoaqin's Rachel and Buelsar facing off against Team Bam's Khun and Bero in the Dallar Show arena. Despite Khun and Bero not knowing one another, the match is basically turned into a pair of 1v1s as Bero is only interested in trying to kill Buelsar due to him killing her teammate, Tochi. The four of them take their spots around a small square pool that has the tiny Sweetfish swimming within it. The winner of the 1st Round being the team that manages to catch the Sweetfish out of the pool without killing it.
The moment the match begins, Bero instantly charges at Buelsar. The lollipop that she holds allowing her to power herself up where biting it for the sugar increases her strength. Going as high as 80% sugar power from her lollipop, Bero's able to keep up with Buelsar in a close-combat duel, much to the latter's surprise. While Bero and Buelsar are battling it out in an even stalemate, Khun and Rachel work to catch the Sweetfish for their teams.
Given his hate for Rachel, Khun proceeds to call her out as someone who can't do anything on her own. Thus, he offers Rachel the chance to go first while taunting that he knows that she won't be able to catch the Sweetfish anyway. Determined to prove to Khun that she can do things on her own, Rachel accepts going first by using her Lighthouses to try to trap the Sweetfish within her Lighthouse field. However, she fails to realize that the tiny Sweetfish is actually compressed, which the Sweetfish easily breaks out of her Lighthouse field after it enlarges back to its original size. Just as the Sweetfish is about to eat Rachel, Khun easily catches the large Sweetfish with his own Lighthouse field since unlike Rachel, he knew beforehand how large a Sweetfish actually is. Hoaqin's left unimpressed by Rachel's failure as Team Bam is deemed the winners of the 1st Round, which they're awarded 15 Dallar coins while Team Hoaqin loses 15 of theirs. Khun then proceeds to taunt Rachel once more by claiming that God has made sure that she will never be able to do things on her own, and even taunts that the legs of Dan, the person she injured, has healed to the point that he can accomplish more than her. As a result, Rachel's left distraught over her failure.
With the 1st Round of the Dallar Show already over, Khun, Bero, Rachel, and Buelsar return to their teams. On Team Hoaqin's side, Buelsar apologizes to Hoaqin for his failure due to underestimating how strong a fat girl like Bero actually is. Hoaqin then calls out Rachel having now realized how useless and pathetic she is as a support for him, which its clear that Rachel is still distraught over what happened. When Yura tries to ask her how she is, Rachel claims that she's fine. Meanwhile on Team Bam's side, Bero remains exhausted after the sugar power-up while Khun has the compressed Sweetfish now hanging out with him as if they've bonded. Khun then makes it clear to Bam that he only let Rachel live due to knowing that Bam wouldn't have liked it. Thus, Khun makes it clear that he would probably kill Rachel if Bam's not around. Poro then announces that there will be a 20 minute break before they begin the Dallar Show's 2nd Round. During the break, Khun remains suspicious as to what's going on with the white-haired Slayer Candidate siblings due to Vicente not being with Hoaqin and Anna.
Meanwhile within the conductor's office, Yuri taunts Pedro that he doesn't have long to live after Team Bam won the 1st Round. In return, Pedro reminds her that there's still more of the game to be played.
Elsewhere in a dark location of the Hell Train, Bam's five prisoner companions, Akraptor, Prince, Miseng, Blarode, and Quaetro are seen still within a hanging steel cage. Prince goes about complaining about how they've been stuck within a cage for the past month, but he stops when he notices something moving below their cage.
Back to the Dallar Show, the players of the game are brought to the location of the Dallar Show's 2nd Round known as the 74th Motor Sector, which the new arena is a giant pipe maze leading to a motor core of the Hell Train. Here, Poro announces the Transferring the Sweetfish game where Team Bam will have to escort the Sweetfish through the pipe maze to the motor core finish line while Team Hoaqin's objective is to go on the attack to try to kill off the Sweetfish. Poro further explains that the two Slayer Candidate factions are to be broken up into 3-man squads that will start off at different entrances of the pipe maze while one 3-man squad from Team Bam will start off escorting the Sweetfish through the pipe maze. Thus, the other squads will have to make their way through the maze to find the Sweetfish squad's location. An additional rule being that 3-man squads can spend Dallar coins to close off certain pipe tunnels, which the next 3-man squad would have to pay a higher amount of Dallar coins to reopen them.
Starting the 2nd Round pipe maze game, the Bam and Hoaqin factions are split up into squads of up to three, and are placed at random starting locations within the pipe maze. Some of the squads being Sachi/Boro/Aka, Rachel/Yura, Rak/Irure, Ehwa/Bero/Hongjo, Bam/Hanool/Moontari, Hoaqin/Anna/Daniel, Buelsar/Angel, and Wangnan/Vicente. The Sweetfish escort squad turns out to be Khun/Hwaryun/Danhwa, which they begin their trek through the pipe maze. Meanwhile, Vicente and Wangnan holding the White Heavenly Mirror are set to go after Hoaqin. In Hoaqin's squad, Hoaqin's more interested in finding his other pieces and defeating Viole rather than going after the Sweetfish, which Daniel goes along with. On the side of the Ehwa/Bero/Hongjo squad, Ehwa is seen not getting along with her new teammates as they begin their trek through their starting pipe. The Buelsar/Angel squad ends up already stumbling across the Ehwa/Bero/Hongjo squad, which said Team Rachel members decide to follow them.
The Bam/Hanool/Moontari squad begins their trek through the Dallar Show pipe maze, which they debate what to do first. They decide on the plan being to first locate their other teammates in order to have enough Dallar coins as a group to take advantage of the pipe closing mechanic against the Hoaqin faction.
At another pipe location, the Boro/Sachi/Aka squad are seen moving about quickly through the maze. Their goal being to locate and defeat Hoaqin as soon as possible.
Meanwhile, the Rak/Irure squad begins their trek through the pipe maze. Rak being confused about the teammate he ended up with as Irure from Team Bero is just sleeping on a floating pillow, which Rak wonders if she's dead.
Elsewhere within the pipe maze, the Ehwa/Bero/Hongjo squad arrives at the bottom of a circular tower room with many layers of yellow pillars around its edges that rise up to an upper area where the other exit out of the room is located. Ehwa assumes that they're supposed to jump on the yellow pillars to reach the top as the Buelsar/Angel squad pops up behind them ready for a fight. Despite Bero still aiming to kill Buelsar for murdering her teammate, Ehwa separates them with her Yeon flames, and then advises her squad to make their escape up the yellow pillars. Upon jumping on the yellow pillars however, they turn out to be trampolines, which results in the Ehwa/Bero/Hongjo squad bouncing around the room as the Buelsar/Angel squad watches from the bottom floor. Due to her hatred for the Great Families, Angel flies after Ehwa specifically while the latter's bouncing around the room pillars.
Right as she's about to strike Ehwa, Angel's trident weapon gets blocked by the red birdman, Hongjo, due to his respect for women. However, his inability to fly causes him to fall away from Angel and Ehwa, and returns to bouncing around the room. Ehwa manages to break out of the bouncing loop and lands back on the bottom floor, but Angel continues to attack her out of anger from seeing Ehwa act like a nice girl despite being a Great Family member. While avoiding Angel's attacks, Ehwa thinks back to when she sought out help from the flame-user, Quaetro Blitz, to learn how to better control her flames. However, Quaetro assures her that there's nothing to teach as the Great Yeon Family is flame itself. Thus, no one can compete with her in flames. Another flashback shows a young Ehwa easily defeating an opponent with her flames, which her Yeon Family praises her as a treasure that will surely become a Jahad Princess. In the present, such irritation on not understanding how her Yeon flames work causes Ehwa to fire out a powerful flame upon Angel. Such a strong Yeon flame attack causes Angel to spread out her angelic wings to become bigger, which blow away the flames; signaling that she's released her power to take on Ehwa in a serious fight.
As the duel between Ehwa and Angel begins, Buelsar continues to watch Bero and Hongjo bounce around the room. Buelsar's about to make his move, but it's at this point that the Bam/Hanool/Moontari squad stumble upon the circular bounce tower room. Bam and Buelsar noticing one another given that their duel at Train City was left unfinished.
Within the circular bounce tower room, Ehwa continues to avoid Angel's angelic shinsu blasts as Buelsar stands before the newly arrived Bam/Hanool/Moontari squad. Buelsar only remains focused on Viole where he gives the Slayer Candidate the heads up that Angel's powered up to a point where Ehwa could die and completely disappear. This angers Moontari to step forward to duel the Mad Dog due to feeling like he's being ignored. In return, Buelsar accepts the challenge, which results in a close combat 1-on-1 duel. As they duel, Buelsar's surprised to find that his strikes are being stalled due to Moontari being a reverse flow control user. As Bam's about to step in to help fight the Mad Dog, Moontari advises against it as Bam's needed to help his boss, Aka, get revenge. That Bam needs to conserve his energy for the eventual duel against Hoaqin.
Seeing that the enemy is planning to just have Moontari take him on alone, Buelsar deems it a moment where his opponents aren't taking him seriously. Thus, Buelsar activates a special skill of his called "Hell in the Cell," which a group of large metal chains suddenly appears behind him that blocks the way forward for Bam's group. Buelsar explains that said chains are an ability that his master provided for him, and warns that unless he dies, the chains won't go away. Thus, the Mad Dog advises for Bam/Hanool/Moontari squad to come at him with all they got. Despite the warning, Moontari continues the plan by resuming the 1-on-1 close combat duel with Buelsar.
Meanwhile, the Ehwa vs. Angel duel continues. Angel taunting the Great Family member as Ehwa's just been avoiding her angelic shinsu blasts up to this point rather than trying to perform a counter-attack using her Yeon Family flames. Becoming bored of the fight, Angel figures that she needs to do something to motivate Ehwa into taking her on more seriously. Seeing the red birdman, Hongjo, still bouncing around the room, Angel decides to throw her trident at him since she didn't like his attempt to protect Ehwa shortly beforehand. The thrown trident ends up stabbing through Hongjo's body, which results in the red birdman's death, much to the shock of Ehwa and Bero. Standing over Hongjo's corpse, Angel taunts that his death was his own fault for siding with a member of the Great Families. Such an action disgusts Ehwa to the point of her body becoming shrouded in a Yeon flame aura. Remembering Quaetro's words about the Yeon Family being flame itself, Ehwa's body flares up as she's now prepared to take on Angel seriously.
Within the pipe maze bouncing room, the battle between Ehwa and Angel heats up. Ehwa's powerful Yeon flames encase her body to the point that it allows her to fly. However, Bam notices something is off with Ehwa due to her lack of expression within her Yeon flames, which heavily implies that said flames have taken control over her. Seeing Ehwa's lack of expression excites Angel as Ehwa's now showing her "true colors" as a disgusting member of the Ten Great Families looking down on her. As Angel goes in to attack however, the Yeon flames become even more powerful to the point that Angel sees no opening, and can only dodge around. Seeing Ehwa continue to lack expression as she attacks her, Angel gives off a crazy laugh over how Ehwa's proving herself to be no different than her mother.
Angel goes over her backstory of how her mother fell for a member from the Ten Great Families only for him to abandon them after getting her mother pregnant, which the child was Angel. Her mother then became depressed over being abandoned, and refused to treat Angel as a proper mother as she saw Angel as nothing but garbage. In the present, Angel summons her Metalfish to attack Ehwa while also going off on a long rant. She complains about having to watch her mother constantly trying to seduce Ten Great Family members in an attempt to get her old life back rather than give her current daughter love, and that Ehwa must be enjoying trying to now get rid of the garbage girl that's currently in front of her. Another flashback is seen of the moment where Angel's mother says her goodbye to her daughter Raguel, which is Angel's real name. The mother tells Raguel that the latter's going to be taken in by people who see the potential in her given that Raguel's a Ten Great Family member, which her mother's last words is that Raguel should be grateful to her for making her daughter a blessed person. In the present, Raguel gets pissed off as she complains that the person who's truly blessed is the Yeon girl she's currently fighting.
Remaining worried about how off the Ehwa vs. Raguel battle feels, Bam charges in despite the current close-combat duel going on between Moontari and Buelsar. During their duel, Moontari complains about his pissed he is at how arrogant Buelsar and the rest of FUG are being despite just being first-timers on the Hell Train. Moontari then thinks about the time he lost to Aka in the past that led to his recruitment into Team Aka, and a following conversation where Moontari asks Aka why he remains on the Hell Train. In return, Aka answers that it's because he has lingering feelings due to what happened on the past Hell Train trip, and because he's come to enjoy being with his current team. In the present, Bam runs by the Moontari vs. Buelsar duel as Moontari claims that he's going to free Aka from the Hell Train. In return, Buelsar praises Moontari's energy only to overpower the latter to the point of vertically slicing Moontari in half with his jousting stick, which kills Moontari.
With Moontari dead, Buelsar yells over at Bam not to run away from him, which forces Bam to focus on him again. The two of them hear Ehwa and Raguel continuing to duke it out nearby, which Buelsar figures that they need to get their duel over with quickly so that he can go to Raguel before her mental state collapses. Thus, Buelsar properly introduces himself to Bam as one of Baylord Yama's Mad Dogs, and that he's been sent to side with Hoaqin to test if Bam is worthy enough to be a Slayer Candidate. Ordering Bam to show him his true power, Bam claims that Buelsar will be sorry for this as he powers up his Thorn ready to take on the Mad Dog at full power.
The pillar bounce room duel between Bam and Buelsar begins, which the latter becomes confused as Bam just powering up his Thorn was enough to break Buelsar's surrounding Hell in the Cell chains that were keeping them trapped. Buelsar remains hyped for battle wanting to know how much stronger Viole's gotten over the past month on the Hell Train only to become even more confused by Bam just slowly walking towards him. The story flashes back to Bam in the Rice Pot talking with the mysterious blue being known as the "Power" that's within his mind. During the moment that the Power's trying to convince Bam to use it to take over the Tower as its next tyrannical King, Bam refuses, and claims that the Power is a scared being who's afraid of being ruled by someone, which leaves the Power stunned in disbelief.
Meanwhile back in the present, Bam is now face-to-face with Buelsar, much to the latter's confusion as to why Viole's not doing anything. Sensing danger, Buelsar ends up attacking first on reflex only for Bam to quickly blast him back with a shinsu Bang. The story flashes back once more to continue Bam's talk with the Power. The confused Power questions why it would be afraid when it's already so strong, which Bam explains how he's realized during his climb up the Tower that powerful people who try to step on others to climb higher are people who are running away from a fear they can't see. That it's cowardly as such people aren't confident enough to face their opponent through speaking to them from the same view-point. Thus, Bam claims that he has no interest in being that kind of coward, and will fight while being at the same view-point as everyone else. Bam then claims that he will fight this way using the other power that's currently beating down on the blue "Power" being before him, which behind it, a massive ball of golden energy is seen.
Back in the present, Buelsar gets back up after being hit by Bam's shinsu Bang, and is even more hyped to fight knowing that after just one month of training on the Hell Train, Viole's already gained control of the power that caused him to go haywire during the fight at the Train City boarding platform. Buelsar charges in hoping that fighting a powerful being like Viole will finally allow the former to bring out his true power as a Mad Dog. However, Bam counters with a new power that's colored gold, which catches Buelsar by surprise not knowing what it is.
Meanwhile, the nearby duel between Ehwa and Raguel has concluded. Raguel lying burnt up on the floor, and unable to move. Seeing the emotionless Ehwa flying high in the room about to finish her off with the Yeon flames that are still controlling her, Raguel's glad to know that her opinion of the Ten Families being disgusting people has been vindicated. However, Bero still bouncing around the room manages to reach Ehwa, and grabs hold of her. Despite being surrounded in the Yeon flames, Bero breaks out into a speech that basically amounts to ordering Ehwa to get it together, and to not let her Yeon flames of the Ten Great Families control her. The result is Ehwa remember back to a meaningful moment where her mother tells her that she's strong, but needs to be responsible with her powerful Yeon flames to not hurt others. Thanks to Bero, Ehwa comes back to her senses, but the Yeon flames that were controlling her powers down, which causes them both to start falling. However, Ehwa and Bero are rescued by Bam suddenly flying up to them on his Blue Oar platform skill.
Since Buelsar and Raguel have lost, the fight in the pillar bounce room has come to an end. Watching from Conductor Pedro's viewing room, Yuri and Evan remain confused as to what the gold power was that Bam used to defeat Buelsar.
From Conductor Pedro's viewing room, Yuri and Evan remain confused after witnessing Bam defeat Buelsar. Yuri questions why Bam's become so strong, which Evan figures that FUG must have put a lot of effort into making an Irregular their newest Slayer Candidate. He notes the Thorn that Bam has as a possible power amplification tool, but remains confused as to what the unknown gold power was that Bam used to defeat Buelsar.
Meanwhile, Pedro thinks over the current status of the Dallar Show. He figures that FUG Slayer Baylord Yama's not going to like the news that Viole defeated one of his Mad Dogs, but he remains without worry as everything's still going according to plan. That the Dallar Show's been rigged for Hoaqin's side to win where the teams were placed within the pipe maze in such a way that Khun's Sweetfish escort group's going to eventually become surrounded on all sides by their enemies. In addition, Bam's group was put far away in the pipe maze to not be able to catch up to Khun's group in time, and Hoaqin's group will run into Bam's extra companions so that Hoaqin can eat them for power. Pedro then looks to Princess Yuri knowing that her death will come as well.
Back in the bouncing room, Bam, Hanool, Ehwa and Bero group up after winning the battle with Buelsar and Raguel. Ehwa freaking out that Bam was holding her while Bero's just glad that she got revenge. The defeated Buelsar congratulates Viole for defeated him using that unknown gold power, but he also warns that they're not strong enough to defeat Hoaqin. Keeping to his end of the deal, Buelsar agrees to tell Bam and company who Hoaqin really is.
At another location of the pipe maze, the Boro/Sachi/Aka squad enters a room with a large spinning fan on the floor blocking the way forward. They're about to leave to look for a way around, but are met by the Hoaqin/Anna/Daniel squad also stumbling across the fan room. Hoaqin remains hyped to eat the Boro/Sachi/Aka squad as revenge for the loss he suffered to them hundreds of years ago. However, he decides to sick his sister, Anna, on them as he wants to save his energy for the fight against Viole.
Meanwhile, the Wangnan/Vicente duo is seen making their way across a pipe room filled with a dangerous liquid; standing on a transport bubble that Vicente created to cross it. As they move, Vicente remains worried about Hoaqin taking advantage of Anna, and also explains why he and his four siblings combined into one being using a forbidden technique, which was to try to surpass their Great Family leader, who's their father. Vicente claiming that their father is like a glittering sword giving off an everlasting light that never fades. Wangnan asks about the forbidden technique, which Vicente explains how Hoaqin learned from an ancient devil the "Spell of Soul-Eating;" a spell where souls eat each other to become one powerful being. Vicente notes that it's because of this spell that the five siblings were fused as one being for countless years, which confuses Wangnan as to how that's possible when the siblings are currently just Regulars. In return, Vicente reveals to Wangnan that while they're split up and weak at the moment, their fused form actually rose up the Tower ages ago, and became a powerful FUG Slayer Ranker known as "White."
It's at this point that the Wangnan/Vicente duo hear the battle going down nearby between Boro/Sachi/Aka and Daniel. A voice is heard from Wangnan's White Heavenly Mirror knife warning them that "he's" nearby, which results in the Wangnan/Vicente duo hurrying off knowing that they've found Hoaqin. Meanwhile within the fan room, Hoaqin questions why Daniel stepped in to battle the Boro/Sachi/Aka squad rather than let Anna do it. In return, Daniel notes that he's just irritated seeing his old comrades fighting together. Though it's implied Daniel sensed Vicente nearby, which he attacked to inform Vicente of Hoaqin's location. Anna then steps in ready to fight Hoaqin's enemies.
At that same time, Buelsar has wrapped up informing Bam's group about Hoaqin's real identity as the FUG Slayer Ranker, "White." However, Hoaqin's currently back to Regular status due to the five siblings that made up "White" currently being split apart. He warns Viole to find Hoaqin before he becomes one with his again, or else a powerful God will descend upon them.
After hearing about how Hoaqin is "White" from Buelsar, Bam and company remain confused as to how there's a powerful Ranker FUG Slayer aboard the Hell Train when such people are supposed to be asleep or fighting elsewhere. In return, Buelsar explains how "White," the 10th of 11 FUG Slayers, doesn't have such a status at the moment. Buelsar explains how far in the past, "White" was a notorious being within FUG as someone who always played with human life. However, such actions that led to a lot of deaths eventually caught up to "White" where he ended up losing in a fight to a Jahad Princess, which resulted in him losing his powers. Thus, "White" snuck away to the Hell Train to use the express as a means to regain his power by eating the souls of anyone who tries to ride the train.
Aboard the Hell Train, "White" ended up finally splitting apart back to its original five Regular siblings within the Hell Train due to his lost power. However, an incident (Roen) led to Hoaqin and the siblings getting sealed away within the Hell Train, which from then on, "White" was officially deemed missing within FUG as they never knew that he snuck off to the Hell Train. That is until Daniel showed up recently to inform FUG of "White" being on the Hell Train, and his desire to use Hoaqin to resurrect someone (Roen) who died on the express. With everything said, Buelsar gives Viole one last warning that the Dallar Show match has been set up in such a way to resurrect "White," which causes Bam to worry about his companions. Before Bam heads off to help them, Buelsar gives Viole a bit of advice that the Sweetfish escort group is in danger.
Elsewhere within the maze, the Khun/Hwaryun/Danhwa squad is seen escorting the Sweetfish through the pipe maze. As the Sweetfish escort team goes through a large open pipe area of many bridges, the Rachel/Yura duo is shown to have found them, and are observing from a nearby bridge. However, Rachel and Yura are unable to attack knowing that they don't have enough Dallars to open the pipe doors that the escort team will escape towards. Thanks to their Emily terminal mapping out the pipe maze, Yura provides Rachel the good news that Cassano should be arriving soon to help fight the Sweetfish squad. As a result, Rachel states that they will attack once the Sweetfish area reaches the exit of this area. Rachel being highly motivated to make someone as arrogant as Khun suffer a loss.
At the fan room, the Boro/Sachi/Aka squad watches Anna summon out a large floating jar with eyeballs all over it. Anna warning them that it contains soul melting juice that will kill them. A wave of said juice is then shot at them from the jar, which forces the squad to go on the run. Meanwhile, Daniel catches the fight with Daniel in amusement, which Hoaqin explains that since Anna was the weakest sibling to the point that she couldn't even learn swordsmanship, she made up for it by learning sorcery instead. Hoaqin then asks if Daniel's okay with watching his former friends die, which Daniel assures him that he doesn't care. Meanwhile during the battle with Anna, Sachi activates his magical thorn-mace to cast out a thorn path through the juice wave, which the thorn path then wraps out Anna and bounds her. Sachi calling out to Hoaqin that he's always been training as he never forgot what happened back then.
A flashback is seen of Sachi remembering back to the Roen incident hundreds of years ago. He thinks over how he was the first to notice Roen's change in persona having become cold and distant due to falling into Hoaqin's trap, yet he couldn't bring himself to help her. That the only one who truly looked out for her was the one who liked her, Daniel. Sachi thinks over how when the revelation happened that Roen killed one of Hoaqin's close subordinates, the rest of the team actually resented her. And that when Roen sacrificed herself to seal away Hoaqin on the Hell Train, they thought it was right that Roen did it. However, Sachi's been left wondering in the current day if this means that they were the ones who killed Roen since they didn't stop her from going through with it.
The fight with Anna continues as Sachi's thorn paths are destroyed by the stuffed rabbit toy that Anna's been carrying around. Anna's stuffed rabbit has now become human-sized, is now wielding a sword, and is now standing before Sachi ready to attack him. As the Sachi vs. Anna duel continues, Boro and Aka are still running away from the jar's juice wave. However, their path eventually gets blocked by the juice forming a river before them. Anna's jar then shoots another wave of its melting juice at them, which Aka shields Boro from taking the hit. Aka refusing to have another death weighing on his heart, which the watching Hoaqin finds the show of Aka injuring himself to save Boro to be hilarious. However, Daniel standing next to him says nothing.
It's at this point that the Wangnan/Vicente duo appears behind Hoaqin, which the latter senses Vicente's presence. Vicente then summons out his sword claiming that one of them will vanish for good, which Hoaqin gets hyped up claiming that he's going to become a God again. The two of them engage in a sword duel. Hoaqin questioning if Vicente can tell that the former's strong now compared to the weakling that he was before they combined to form "White." While exchanging swords, Hoaqin further calls out Vicente for not understanding that it was he who accomplished rising up the Tower and becoming the powerful Ranker FUG Slayer known as "White," which is his identity, and his alone. Meanwhile, a shocked Wangnan watches from the sideline unable to believe how strong Hoaqin actually is.
The Khun/Hwaryun/Danhwa squad continues to escort the Sweetfish through a pipe, which Danhwa notes how odd it is that they haven't encountered anyone yet. Khun and Hwaryun explain that the other teams must be gathering Dallars to fight them later given that the escort team starts with a high amount of Dallars to allow them to escape easily. Khun also remains convinced that Hoaqin won't come after them since said Slayer Candidate's more interested in finding his pieces to become "White" again.
Meanwhile in the pipe room with the large spinning fan, Wangnan with the White Heavenly Mirror knife remains on standby watching the sword duel unfold between Hoaqin and Vicente. Wangnan not knowing how he should get involved. Hoaqin calls out Vicente for remaining on the defensive just like he was in the past, which Vicente counters that unlike Hoaqin's hostile sword, his sword has always been for survival. A brief flashback is seen where Hoaqin and Vicente dueled when they were younger kids, yet it ended up as a tie due to Hoaqin being unable to break through Vicente's defensive swword-style. In the present, Hoaqin complains that Vicente's defensive sword has been the only sword so far that he's been unable to defeat, which pissed him off at how different they are. However, Vicente notes that while that's true, they're also similar in some ways that allowed them to become one as "White."
Another brief flashback is seen where Hoaqin gathers his brothers and sisters for a meeting. Here, he announces to them his plan to surpass their father, and become the new Great Family leader. Back in the present, Vicente points out how Hoaqin's announcement was the first time that he showed any interest in him since none of their other siblings had any ambition towards beating their father, which Vicente is also one of the few who desires to surpass their father. However, he's now realized that siding with Hoaqin was a mistake after learning that the latter gained power by eating the souls of the many he killed. Hoaqin assures Vicente that it was to gain power to surpass their father, but Vicente disagrees; claiming that Hoaqin's decided to give up everything for the sake of power.
Nearby, Sachi's fight with Anna's human-sized stuffed rabbit toy continues. Being able to hold off the rabbit toy, Sachi's left impressed, and questions why Anna comes off weak compared to Hoaqin. Feeling that Anna's not taking him seriously despite having trained himself up to being one of the top D-rank Regulars enrages Sachi into activating his thorn-powers even further by using his powerful Silence of Rose spell. The thorn vines shoot off from his mace weapon, and wrap around Anna's rabbit toy to the point of binding it, and ripping it apart, which surprises Anna. Sachi orders her to take the fight seriously as he stands ready to continue the attack.
At another location of the pipe room, Aka continues to use his body as a shield to protect Boro from being hit by the melting wave from Anna's juice jar. Fearing for Aka's life, Boro tries to convince Aka to stop since the former believes that he doesn't deserve to be saved after running away during the Roen incident. However, Aka refuses since he knows that Boro regrets the past like the rest of them since he still hasn't stopped trying to return to the Hell Train. Moments after, two of Aka's teammates who were a 2-man squad going through the pipes arrive to help them. One of which is a Light-Bearer, who uses his lighthouse field barrier wall to shield Aka and Boro from being damaged any further by the juice wave. With Boro and Aka now free, the four of them prepare to destroy Anna's juice jar.
Back to Hoaqin vs. Vicente, the former finds the latter's accusation of giving up everything to obtain power laughable. Hoaqin calling out Vicente as a hypocrite for doing the same thing gaining power to one day surpass their father, and is now trying to gather their siblings to become strong again just like him. However, Vicente calls Hoaqin out as when the five of them became "White," only Hoaqin got to stay awake while the other four siblings were forced into hibernation. Thus, all the killings was done only by Hoaqin. As a result, Vicente claims that he will now become the new center of "White" to put a stop to Hoaqin's schemes. Vicente's plan enrages Hoaqin; calling out the former for trying to take everything from him after all he's done over the years to get strong. Hoaqin claims that becoming strong can only be done by sacrificing and stepping over others, which Hoaqin calls out Vicente as someone incapable of doing, and claims that their siblings would never agree to Vicente's leadership. However, Vicente reveals that one of their siblings has already accepted going against Hoaqin, which confuses the latter.
Suddenly, a voice calls out to Hoaqin claiming that it's been awhile. Hoaqin recognizes the voice as one of his brothers, and looks in the direction of the voice. What Hoaqin sees is a white-haired Wangnan grinning at him. The White Heavenly Mirror knife in his hand giving off a white aura that's covering Wangnan's body, which shows that Hoaqin's sibling stored within the White Heavenly Mirror is currently controlling Wangnan to speak with Hoaqin.
As Hoaqin remains engaged in his sword duel with Vicente, the appearance of the fourth "White" sibling controlling Wangnan confuses him. In return, the fourth sibling, named David, explains that since he's not technically a part of the Dallar Show game, he's temporarily taken over Wangnan's body in order to participate.
Meanwhile, the Bam/Ehwa/Hanool/Bero squad is seen quickly flying through the pipe maze atop Bam's Blue Oar platform to search for their teammates. Ehwa, Hanool and Bero hanging on for dear life. They had been warned beforehand by Buelsar that the Dallar Show was set up to purposefully put Bam far away from his teammates within the pipe maze. Since Bam's convinced that Khun's capable enough to handle the Sweetfish escort on his own, Bam aims to search for the others who are in danger to Hoaqin. Deciding to create his own shortcut, Bam controls the shinsu of the pipe walls he's currently traveling through by breaking his pipe away from the maze, and then slams its end into another pipe. Bam pointing out that since they're still within the pipe, they're not breaking any rules.
Back at the spinning fan room, Hoaqin gets the gist that David's currently stored within Wangnan's White Heavenly Mirror knife, but he remains confused as to how Wangnan and Vicente found where David was hidden within the Hell Train. Thinking it over, Hoaqin gets pissed having realized that Daniel with his ability to track the "White" siblings within the Hell Train has betrayed him, which Daniel, still watching from the sideline, doesn't deny. A brief flashback is seen back to the time when Daniel snuck away from Team Rachel to meet with the enemy. Vicente specifically. Daniel offers to make a deal to reveal to Vicente the Hell Train locations of the other "White" siblings if Vicente agrees to do a favor for Daniel (resurrecting Roen) once Vicente wins the Dallar Show, which it's clear that Vicente accepted since he found David. Meanwhile within the present, David charges in, and manages to stab Hoaqin from behind with the White Heavenly Mirror. The squad of Regulars led by Boro and Aka are also seen successfully destroying Anna's juice far that's been trying to melt them.
With the White Heavenly Mirror stabbed into him, Hoaqin remains pissed at David for the betrayal. However, David doesn't care as just like Vicente, he wants to live his own life rather than remain asleep as a part of the Hoaqin's "White". Believing that they have Hoaqin trapped, Vicente orders the former to give up; and states that he will now become the new core of "White" once he performs the soul-eating spell. Hoaqin starts complaining refusing to give up as if he's on the verge of losing. However, Hoaqin suddenly switches tone, and smugly smiles at them as it turns out to have all been an act, which confuses everyone. Hoaqin reveals that back when he approached Vicente, Anna, David, and their fifth sibling, Albelda, about the spell he discovered from a book left by an ancient demon that will allow them to surpass their father by combining to become "White," he had actually told them a lie. The lie being that there was no book, and that Hoaqin actually met with the demon. The demon offered Hoaqin power to become a God of FUG in exchange for Hoaqin deceiving and handing his siblings over to the demon. Thus, in the present, Hoaqin reveals to Vicente and David that as the only one who made a deal with the demon, he's the only one that can eat souls.
Hoaqin reveals that the demon is still currently living within him, which he suddenly activates the soul-eating spell. Hoaqin taunting that him being the core of "White" was decided since the beginning without the other four siblings knowing. The result is Vicente's soul and David's soul within Wangnan being absorbed into Hoaqin, which realizing that he's lost, Vicente's last words is him thinking about his sins, and hopes that their father doesn't forgive him. Meanwhile, Anna is seen nearby also suddenly being absorbed into Hoaqin. The watching Pedro and Poro figuring that "White's" resurrection is finally happening. Once the soul-eating spell is over, Daniel sees a taller Hoaqin standing over Vicente's body and an unconscious Wangnan. Hoaqin, now in a powerful, but incomplete White form since he still lacks Albelda's soul, taunts Daniel that he has no intention of resurrecting Roen anymore since he knows now that Daniel's betrayed him.
Meanwhile, Bam's squad is seen flying on the Blue Oar platform up a pipe. The jar juice dripping down the pipe's sides, and the spinning fan seen high up, which makes it clear that Bam's about to enter the spinning fan room and encounter the newly appeared incomplete White.
As the Bam/Ehwa/Hanool/Bero squad fly their way up on Bam's Blue Oar platform through the pipe that leads to the fan room, Ehwa remains worried for Bam due to how powerful Hoaqin is as a fellow Slayer Candidate. She asks if Bam's afraid, which he admits he is, but knows that he must fight to keep Hoaqin from becoming "White" again.
Meanwhile, Yuri and Evan continue to watch the pipe maze game from Pedro's train conductor room. Yuri gets annoyed that the footage isn't being broadcasted of Bam, and her and Evan are left confused as to what the large shine was (the moment Hoaqin ate Vicente, David, and Anna to become White) that they saw from one of the pipes. Evan is then left wondering what the purpose of the Dallar Show is to have two Slayer Candidates fight one another.
Within the fan room, Boro and Aka's group that destroyed Anna's juice jar reunite with Sachi to help deal with Anna. However, Sachi's now alone due to Anna being eaten, which Sachi notes that something bad must have happened at Hoaqin and Daniel's location in the fan room. At said location, Hoaqin, now as an incomplete version of FUG Slayer White, taunts Daniel over the latter's failure to team up with Vicente behind his back. White further taunts that he's the only one of his siblings that gets to survive since he's a precious being, and now just needs his one last sibling piece (Albelda) to be fully restored. He then states his overall plan that once he's found and eaten Albelda, he will cast out a large eating spell that will eat all the souls currently aboard the Hell Train; including Roen's. Daniel powers up his Necromancer orb to stop White only to be quickly stabbed in the gut by the FUG Slayer. The watching Poro Poe is left shocked by what he's witnessing from outside the pipe maze given his team up with Daniel to help resurrect Roen.
The 5-man squad led by Boro/Aka/Sachi arrives at Daniel's location only to become confused by the sight of Daniel currently being stabbed by Hoaqin when they're supposed to be teammates. White noting how surprising it is that the three idiots he fought in the past have come to rescue Daniel despite the latter being their traitor friend. Sachi realizes that Hoaqin's power is back in an incomplete White form, and orders his group to attack. However, White points his sword at Daniel. Holding Daniel hostage, White explains that he knows how dangerous Boro, Aka, and Sachi are given that their actions during the Roen incident hundreds of years ago caused a setback in his resurrection. Thus, he orders Boro, Aka, and Sachi to kill themselves in exchange for Daniel's life similar to how Roen saved her comrades by sacrificing herself with the sealing spell that trapped White on the Hell Train. Sachi agrees to kill himself in exchange for Daniel, but White refuses as the only deal he will accept is Sachi, Aka and Boro all killing themselves. It's at this point that the Bam/Ehwa/Hanool/Bero squad arrives. Bam dropping off his Blue Oar platform to stand before White, which the latter notes that Viole has finally arrived.
Meanwhile, the Khun/Hwaryun/Danhwa squad escorting the Sweetfish is seen nearing the pipe maze's finish line. However, the path to the finish line is suddenly blocked off by Team Rachel's Cassano/Traveller duo. Khun catches on that trapping the Sweetfish escort right before the end so that there's no side pipes to escape to was Rachel's plan all along, which sure enough, the Rachel/Yura duo appears behind them to block their escape back. With both pipe paths blocked, Rachel calls out Khun that her team will now begin the Sweetfish hunt.
Before the Sweetfish hunt begins, Khun guesses that Rachel was waiting on the right moment to surround the escort team, which she doesn't deny. Danhwa then begs Yura to get away from Rachel due to the danger of her being partnered up with FUG, which Yura's unable to understand why Danhwa's still trying to help her. Cassano then powers up his Devil Arm ready to attack, which Khun thinks over how he's at a disadvantage due to having to go up against powerful foes in Cassano and Yura. However, he figures that others should be catching up to their location right about now. Sure enough, the Rak/Iruroe duo is seen having arrived at the Sweetfish escort's pipe maze location, much to everyone's surprise.
Rak joins in with the Sweetfish escort, and stands before Cassano to fight the Arm Devil. However, Iruroe notices that Cassano's partner is a weak spot, which results in her taking Traveller captive by trapping him in a shinsu bubble. Iruroe threatens to kill her hostage if the Sweetfish comes under attack, which forces Rachel, Cassano and Yura to stall. Rachel questions how the Rak/Iruroe duo figured out where the Sweetfish escort would be, which Khun answers that he left a breadcrumb trail along the escort path. That by spending 1 Dallar on each of the pipe doors they went through to lock them, he figured that someone would follow the locked door trail; betting on the possibility that it would be his teammates. Khun taunts Rachel that they have the numbers now to escape to the finish line pipe, but knowing that Rachel will chase after, Khun figures that it will cost him a lot of Dallars to lock the final pipe door to keep Team Rachel out. Thus, in order to save his Dallars for the game's 3rd Round, he offers to play a 1-on-1 "fair-and-square" side-game with Rachel that will have all their Dallars on the line. In the end, Rachel accepts going along with it.
Shortly after, Khun and Rachel are seen standing opposite one another atop their Lighthouses while everyone else watches. Khun then pulls out one of his Dallar coins and explains the rules. It turns out to just be a simple heads-or-tails coin flip game where if it's heads Khun wins, and if it's tails, Rachel wins. Rachel is unable to believe that Khun's relying on a simple game of 50/50 chance, which Khun explains that given how much smarter he is compared to Rachel, a game of pure lock is the only way to play a game that would be truly fair against him. He taunts her that this game will allow them to see who God prefers more, which causes Rachel to laugh, and agrees to go along with it wanting to prove Khun wrong.
Meanwhile at the fan room, Bam stands before White claiming that he's arrived to fight the latter. Ehwa notices that Wangnan's knocked out nearby, but before she could go to him, White blocks their way while also thanking Viole for saving him the trouble of needing to seek him out. White realizes that Bam knows about his combined FUG Slayer form, which Bam takes the moment before fighting to ask what White did in the past that caused him to lose his FUG Slayer status. In return, White explains that before the fight with a Jahad Princess weakened him, he ate the souls of around 1 billion people to power himself up, which shocks everyone. The revelation angers Ehwa into attacking White only to be left stunned in disbelief by her flame suddenly turning off, which they all realize that White is strong enough to shut down his opponent's shinsu. White then continues his explanation that while he ended up on the Hell Train after losing his powers, he doesn't regret his actions as he believes that it's only natural for the masses to sacrifice themselves for greater beings, such as himself. He then places his sword up to Bam claiming that White's legend will begin anew by cutting the throat of FUG's newest Slayer Candidate.
Bam's strong enough to hold back White's sword with just his hand while calling out White; not liking how full of it the latter is after killing so many people. Bam adds that he doesn't care about power or his Slayer Candidate position, but that he will be sure to stop someone as dangerous as White from being set loose from the Hell Train. In return, Bam holding back White's sword with just his bare hand surprises the latter, which White deduces that Bam has gone through some sort of change. Bam claiming that he will stop White hypes up the latter to continue the fight.
Bam supported by his companions faces off against White. Seeing that Bam's now capable of dodging his quick sword strikes, White figures that Bam went through some sort of training on the Hell Train leading up to the Dallar Show. White then decides to test out Bam's training by using one of his special Arie-Swordsmanship Stances: White-Type Spirit Sword - The Sword of the Roaring Lion Spirit. The result is a large blast of shinsu being shot from White's sword, which Bam and company are forced to take cover. The watching Yuri and Evan realize that Bam is facing someone from the Great Arie Family, who are known for their white-hair and incredible sword skills. White's left disappointed that his powers still feel weak as he watches Ehwa cast a Yeon-flame attack at him. The flame turns out to be a distraction as Bam sneaks by White to reach the White Heavenly Mirror knife that was left on the floor. Bam then uses the White Heavenly Mirror to store Wangnan and Vicente's bodies within it to protect them from White, which the latter questions what Bam's trying to pull.
The story flashes back a bit to when Bam and company are hiding from White's Roaring Lion Spirit attack. Daniel informs Bam that they're screwed if they let White win here as FUG already has the final sibling (Albelda) to give to White once the Dallar Show's 2nd Round ends. Daniel also informs Bam of how there's many wandering spirits aboard the Hell Train of people who died over the years. Thus, Daniel warns of White's plan. That once While's fully combined again, he will cast a large soul-eating spell throughout the entire Hell Train to eat everyone's souls, living and spirit, in order to regain his original powerful FUG Slayer status. Having witnessed what the White Heavenly Mirror is capable of, Daniel figures that there might be a way to stop White. In the present, Bam is now wielding the White Heavenly Mirror knife against White. Bam powers up his Thorn for one last attack as he's starting to feel exhausted.
Meanwhile, the Sweetfish escort remains stalled due to the coin-toss game that's about to start between Khun and Rachel. The winner will get all the opposing side's Dallar Coins. Khun explains that it will be just one coin-toss to decide the winner, which the watching Hwaryun wonders if Khun relying on a game of 50% chance means that Khun's leaving it up to God to decide their fate. Rachel accepts it, but wanting Khun to further suffer, she adds an additional rule that Khun will get to keep one Dallar Coin should she win so that he isn't fully disqualified from the 3rd Round. Khun accepts it, and proceeds to toss a Dallar Coin; questioning how God will decide this.
Khun flips the Dallar Coin for the coin-toss game against Rachel, which it manages to land on heads. Thus, Khun is deemed the winner. Everyone watching appear to accept this result except for Rachel, who voices her complaint that given how the Dallar Coin was flipped by Khun, he must have rigged it. She orders for another coin-flip, which Khun calls her out as just grasping at straws. Rachel's unable to deny it, and instead makes an offer for another try. The offer being to tell Khun everything regarding her and Bam's pasts. Despite having won the coin-toss duel, Khun thinks it over, and admits that learning about Bam's identity and where he came from as an Irregular is too good to pass up, and accepts the offer.
Rachel takes out her own Dallar Coin to be the one who does the second coin-toss, which it manages to land on tails, much to her excitement. Khun's left disappointed that he lost the chance to learn crucial information on Rachel and Bam, but he points out that Rachel winning here is proof that the coin-toss game is fair. Thus, he suggests for the coin-toss game to win the Dallar Coins to be a best-of-2-out-of-3. Rachel rejects it since it was made clear that the second toss would be the last one, but Khun points out that their teammates won't be satisfied with a 1-1 tie. As a result, Khun suggests the third and final coin-toss to be a more neutral party by having Rak throw the coin. In the end, Rachel agrees to it believing that Rak doesn't come off as someone who would cheat.
As Rak takes his place between Khun and Rachel to throw the third coin-toss, Hwaryun thinks the duel over. Hwaryun deduces that Khun rigged the first coin-toss by freezing the coin with his Lighthouse field without anyone noticing, but he went against rigging it again as Rachel being a fellow Lighthouse user would surely catch on. Thus, the second coin-toss was completely fair, which Rachel managed to win through pure luck. Hwaryun figures that Khun's plan was to make the coin-toss game go for more than one round knowing that Rachel would object to Khun winning the first round. However, Hwaryun notes that Rachel failed to notice that she never should have let the game go to three rounds as God makes sure to keep the randomness fair. Thus, since God allowed Rachel to randomly win the second round, God will even things out back to 50% by allowing Khun to win the third round. Sure enough, Rak's tossed coin ends up landing on heads, which deems Khun the victor. Everyone appears to have accepted the result, which Hwaryun wonders why Khun took such a gamble. The gamble being to see if God really is trying to keep randomness completely fair.
Meanwhile at the fan room, Bam with his Thorn powered up stands ready wielding the White Heavenly Mirror knife to fight Hoaqin. Boro heads over to help the injured Daniel and questions what's going on. In return, Daniel explains the plan that since Hoaqin had only just recently absorbed his siblings to become White, there's still a chance to at least save Vicente since the latter hasn't been completely absorbed yet. Thus, the plan is to stab the White Heavenly Mirror with Vicente's stored body in it into White believing that the stored body will react to Vicente's soul within White, which would bring Vicente's soul back to his body, and partially weaken White. Bam and his companions all attack White, but White stays away due to being too quick, and Bam's exhaustion is getting worse. As a result, Aka states that he will be the one to provide an opening by grabbing and hold of White from behind the moment Bam freezes the FUG Slayer with reverse flow control.
Bam goes along with the plan, and manages to freeze White for a brief moment with his reverse flow control technique. This allows Aka to get behind White, and grab hold of the FUG Slayer. Despite White stabbing his sword into Aka, the latter's able to continue holding White in place for Bam, who rushes in with the White Heavenly Mirror. Bam succeeds in stabbing White with the White Heavenly Mirror, which everyone gets excited that Vicente will be freed. However, White gloats that their plan has failed as it turns out that he's already fully absorbed Vicente. It's at this point that Khun's Sweetfish escort makes it to the finish line at the Motor Core of the pipe maze since Rachel's team couldn't continue the chase with all their Dallar Coins lost from the coin-toss duel. Thus, the Dallar Show's 2nd Round ends in victory for Bam's side. Since everyone has to stop what they're doing, White announces to Viole that they'll settle things in the Dallar Show's 3rd Round.
The Dallar Show referee, Poro Poe, makes the announcement that everyone will be teleported to the Motor Core for the 3rd Round. White's teleported first while saying that he will be waiting there to face off against a recovered Viole. Meanwhile, the heavily injured Aka is left distraught that they failed to stop Hoaqin from becoming White.
The story flashes back to hundreds of years ago during the Boro/Sachi/Daniel/Aka/Poro/Roen Hell Train trip some time after things went south after Roen killed Hoaqin's subordinate. The team remains in hiding from Hoaqin's men after the latter had set them up for killing other Hoaqin followers, which has left Boro's group trapped on the Hell Train. Boro confronts Daniel after finding out that he was hiding what Roen did from the rest of the group; believing that there might be a way to patch things up with Hoaqin. However, Daniel answers that there was no point. That Roen's murder doesn't matter since Hoaqin's planning to kill everyone anyway. Knowing that her five teammates are trapped, a broken Roen assures them that she will fix things somehow. Poro then reveals that he managed to swipe a special spell book from Hoaqin's room, which turned out to have the spell to seal Hoaqin on the Hell Train. However, the sealing spell requires a sacrifice to cast.
In the present, Aka reveals to everyone his biggest regret, which is that he wishes to have been the one to volunteer to cast the sealing spell rather then Roen going through with it. Aka then falls over unconscious due to the sword injury he received from White. Meanwhile at the Dallar Show prison cage, Prince assures his fellow inmates, Akraptor, Miseng, Blarode, and Quaetro, that he saw something white moving in the darkness outside the cage. Sure enough, a pure white being is seen within the darkness watching them.
Meanwhile, White's seen arriving at the Motor Core for the Dallar Show's 3rd Round. He senses his final piece nearby, but is left disappointed when he sees that only Rachel and Yura remain of his team. Meanwhile, Bam's group that fought White also arrives at the Motor Core. Though Daniel and Aka remain severely injured. Bam and company reunite with Khun's Sweetfish escort within the Motor Core to become a full team again, which Bam informs Khun of Hoaqin's identity as FUG Slayer White, and the latter's plan to eat all the souls on the Hell Train once White has fully combined. Overall, Khun figures that they need to stop White at all costs from fully combining with his final sibling (Albelda).
White's reunion with Rachel and Yura isn't as kind since he calls them useless for failing to kill the Sweetfish escort. A brief flashback is seen to moments after Khun won the coin-toss game against Rachel. Despite Rachel's side losing all their Dallar Coins, Khun gives one coin each to Rachel and Yura to keep them in the game. Khun making it clear that he's only doing so to learn about Rachel and Bam's past, which Rachel will have to reveal the information to Khun if Bam's side wins the Dallar Show's 3rd Round.
Yuri, Evan, and Pedro continue to watch the Dallar Show from the Conductor Room. Yuri and Evan making a set-up as if they're in a movie theater, and wearing 3D-glasses to enjoy the Dallar Show broadcast. Back at the Motor Core, Poro Poe's about to announce the game for the 3rd Round. However, he's suddenly interrupted by the arrival of a white-haired girl floating in the air of the Motor Core. Everyone assumes that White's final piece has arrived only for a pissed off White to go about claiming that she looks nothing like his last sibling, which causes confusion. However, the white-haired girl assures White that she's the final piece; claiming that White should be able to sense the tremendous power he's seeking within her. The watching Evan is left shocked having realized that the white-haired girl's speaking the truth about the power currently residing within her.
Evan remains confused by what he's feeling regarding the white-haired girl that suddenly appeared at the Dallar Show. He informs Yuri that he can sense such power in the white-haired girl being at the level of a Ranker, which Yuri looks to Conductor Pedro; having realized that the white-haired girl was a secret weapon that Pedro was hiding. Meanwhile within the Motor Core room, the white-haired girl takes note of Bam being FUG's new Slayer Candidate fighting against White, which she announces that she will take part in the game, and join whichever side she likes. Despite White objecting to it since she should automatically be with him being one of his pieces, the white-haired girl refuses; claiming that White needs to prove that he deserves to possess her power. The white-haired girl then asks referee Poro if she can join, and even hints that she can help him with resurrecting his past teammate, Roen, which he accepts to let her join the team that she comes to like in the Dallar Show.
Poro then gets to announcing the final game for the Dallar Show's 3rd Round, which is a save-or-forsake game called "Go To Hell." The two sides are shown two hostage cages for both Slayer Candidates. Bam's cage having Prince, Akraptor, Miseng, Blarode, and Quaetro while White's cage has Cassano, Traveller, Buelsar, and Raguel. The Motor Core game location is then shown, which consists of two tubes above a pool of boiling liquid. The central tube is a wide and long straight pipe that goes down to the boiling liquid at the bottom of it. The second tube spirals down around the straight central tube down to the boiling liquid. The goal is to save hostages that get sent down the spiral tube before they fall into the boiling liquid and die, which Bam and White can do so by dropping down the large straight tube, and spending Dallar Coins to open entrances between the two pipes that would send the hostage into the large tube to be grabbed and saved. In addition, entrances cost less Dallar Coins to open the closer they are to the boiling liquid (100 Dallars to open the top entrance down to 0 Dallars at the boiling liquid), and fighting between Bam and White can take place within the large tube. Bam and White would off on a platform at the top waiting for the moment to enter the large tube to go down and save their falling hostage.
Next, Poro brings the focus to another part of the "Go To Hell" game called the Submarine of Choice. It's here that one member each from the Bam and White teams will enter it, which these members will be the ones spending Dallar Coins on two options. The first option is the member spending Dallar Coins to open the pipe entrance for the hostage rescue, and the second is spending Dallar Coins to raise the boiling liquid up the central tube to try to screw the rescue up. Poro explains the additional rules that a team is awarded 10 Dallars for a successful rescue, and that Bam and White will each have to rescue 3 of their hostages. The winner being the one who manages to save more hostages while running out of Dallar Coins is an instant loss. Overall due to their efforts in the previous two Dallar Show rounds, Bam's team currently has 112 Dallars while White's team only has 22 Dallars. The first hostage is then called upon. Bam's side is made to go first, which results in Prince being teleported out of the prison cage. He reappears within a Submarine of Death ball that is set to be sent down the spiral tube.
For the Submarine of Choice, White remains disappointed in his teammates given their previous failures, but Rachel manages to convince him to give her one last chance. Meanwhile, Khun offers himself to be the one for the Submarine of Choice, which Bam's companions just go along with it knowing how he acts. Rachel and Khun meet up again upon entering the Submarine of Choice, which Khun goes about taunting her given that Bam's team currently has way more Dallar Coins. However, Rachel warns Khun that this game is disadvantageous for Bam. That she knows Bam is going to lose, because he's someone who values companions more than anything, and that he's not going to like how White is going to be abandoning his own hostages.
Bam and White take their places on the platform above the central tube. The Go To Hell game begins as Prince is sent off down the spiral tube. As Prince falls, everyone waits in anticipation for Bam to make his move. White taunts by threatening to go down and kill Prince himself while Khun remains worried that Rachel speaks the truth that Bam might do something unexpected due to him caring for his friends more than his own life. Prince falls beyond half-way down to the 35 Dallar entrance marker as Khun keeps hoping that Bam doesn't jump the gun and commence with the rescue early. Meanwhile, the white-haired clone girl remains focused on the game wanting to see what Bam's capable of.
Back at the Conductor's office, Pedro doesn't deny that he was hiding something from Yuri and Evan. He reveals the truth that the two white-haired Regulars they currently see in the Dallar Show are actually pieces of the FUG Slayer, White, who disappeared hundreds of years ago after losing to a Jahad Princess. The revelation shocks Yuri knowing that White was an insane FUG Slayer Ranker who killed over a billion people back in the day. Pedro continues that Hoaqin's in the midst of bringing back White, which all that's needed now is for him to combine with the final white-haired clone girl. Yuri and Evan find it ridiculous that Bam is being forced to fight a Ranker, but Pedro assures them that there's no rules being broken since White is still currently an incomplete Regular like Viole. That the only one's currently breaking the rules are Yuri and Evan breaking into the Hell Train, which means Pedro as the Conductor is untouchable as long as he follows the rules of the Hell Train. Yuri warns that as a Jahad Princess, she's backed by the Jahad Family to stop Pedro's abuse of power.
Ignoring the threat, Pedro points out the flaw that she would need approval from the Jahad Family to act against the Tower's rules set for the Hell Train, which the Hell Train makes it impossible for those within it to communicate to the outside. Thus, Pedro gloats that the plan will be a success to not only revive White, but that Viole and Yuri will be killed off as well. However, Yuri and Evan reveal that they've been tricking Pedro, and that they've actually already received approval from the Jahad Family, which leaves Pedro confused. Yuri reveals that her 3D-glasses created by Princess Repellista Jahad have a special recording function that recorded everything Pedro has told her about FUG's attempt to resurrect White. As a result, the information was sent to the Jahad Family, who've given permission to Yuri to get rid of the threat, which means that Conductor Pedro is no longer protected by the rules of the Hell Train. Aiming to get Bam's location out of the Conductor, Yuri stands ready for a fight against Pedro, which he finally gets up out of his chair to face her.
Not able to hold out anymore, Bam drops from the starting platform. He flies down the Go To Hell game's central pipe to rescue the falling Prince at the 30 Dallar Coin mark. White doesn't go after due to his surprise that Viole went early while Khun in the Submarine of Choice spends the 30 Dallar Coins to send Prince into the central pipe. Bam pulls off the rescue by grabbing Prince before he falls into the boiling liquid, which Prince is then sent back up to his companions in a shinsu bubble. Sitting opposite Khun, Rachel congratulates him on their first hostage rescue. However, she warns Khun that he won't have enough Dallar Coins given that she knows what Bam's going to pull due to him not being a cold-hearted person.
After the rescue, Bam returns to the starting platform, which White gets the gist that Viole's aiming to spend 30 Dallar Coins each time to save all of his team's hostages. The next hostage to be sent down the spiral tube is White's teammate, Buelsar. As Buelsar gets set up to be sent down the spiral tube, White decides to tell Bam a story. A story of how way in the past, he was the King of two kingdoms within the Outer Tower. The kingdoms having no idea that they worshipped the same King. His story basically amounts to manipulating the two sides behind-the-scenes over many years to always hate and be at war with one another, which the forever war caused the billion deaths that White mentioned beforehand. It's at this point that Buelsar is sent down the spiral tube.
As Buelsar falls, Bam's left shocked by the story of how White killed a billion people. White continues his story that he had the perfect plan set up where he was constantly powering up by eating the souls of the people that were dying within his two warring kingdoms. However, it all fell apart the day a Jahad Princess confronted him, and put an end to his scheme, which forced his weakened self to run off to the Hell Train. In the end, White calls out Bam as someone who will never become a powerful FUG Slayer if he continues to not sacrifice many lives to gain power. White also reveals that he has no interest in rescuing Buelsar since he's just a dispensable item for an absolute ruler such as himself, which further shocks Bam.
Buelsar falls beyond the half-way point of the pipe as Bam powers up his Thorn out of anger towards White. The sight of Bam powering up catches the attention of the white-haired girl and Sachi. The latter realizing that he's finally sensing that Bam has bloodlust towards someone. Bam orders White to take back what he said about Buelsar being dispensable; calling out White as a piece of trash for throwing away someone who chose to fight and put his life on the line for him. Buelsar's fall nears the end at 10 Dallar coins to open the rescue entrance as White continues to watch Bam power up.
As Buelsar nears the end of the Go to Hell spiral pipe, Bam powering up with his Thorn continues to call out White as nothing but trash that makes flimsy excuses to justify his terrible actions, and doesn't deserve to have anyone sacrificed for him. White remains indifferent since he doesn't believe Bam's capable of changing everything only for Bam to state that he will be the one who saves Buelsar. Bam then takes off down the Go to Hell central pipe to save Buelsar, much to Khun's shock that he's aiming to save someone from the other team. However, Rachel and Rak aren't as surprised given that caring about life has always been part of Bam's persona.
As Bam flies down the central pipe, the watching White is left surprised by how fast the former has become thanks to the boost from the Thorn. The rest of Bam's watching companions are all left confused as to why Bam's aiming to save the enemy's hostage as Bam calls out to Khun to spend the Dallar Coins to send Buelsar into the central pipe. Despite Khun's worry that Rachel will spend Dallar Coins to raise the melting liquid at the bottom of the pipe to potentially kill Bam, Khun goes through with it, and spends the 10 Dallar Coins to open the escape door. Buelsar is sent from the spiral pipe into the central pipe, and Bam manages to rescue him in time before he falls into the melting liquid.
Sitting opposite Rachel within the Submarine of Choice, Khun acts like he's in pain at the sight of Bam saving the enemy. Rachel taunts that this result was a given since Bam's always been someone who doesn't like people dying, even his enemies. In return, Khun questions what Rachel's overall goal is since she chose not to use Dallar Coins to raise the melting liquid to try to kill Bam despite her constant efforts to get him to stop following her. However, Rachel refuses to answer other than pointing out her goal requires Bam to stop coming after her. Wanting to show how loyal he is to Bam compared to Rachel, Khun announces to her that from now on, he will completely follow whatever Bam decides on for the Go to Hell game. After rescuing Buelsar, Bam returns to the starting high platform to stand opposite White once more. The watching Sachi noting that Bam's growing power is due to his bloodlust drawing out the power of the Thorn. White taunts that spending Dallar Coins to save the enemy hostages could result in not having enough to save his later companions. However, Bam announces that his aim is to save everyone. That no one here deserves to be sacrificed for White's victory.
Meanwhile within the Submarine of Choice, Rachel questions what Khun's pulling since saving her team's hostages will just net White's team 10 Dallar Coins for each opposing hostage rescue. In return, Khun states that he's decided to no longer make the Go to Hell game a duel between him and Rachel, but a duel where Bam makes all the decisions against Rachel. Thus, if Rachel loses here, it means that she will have lost to Bam. Back to Bam, he yells at White about how the latter's idea of sacrificing lives just to power up one person is wrong, and that real sacrifice is someone putting their life on the line to save those they care about. Boro and his past teammates all taking note of this given that this is what Roen did for them. Bam powers up once more with the Thorn claiming that he's going to make everyone live while White ends up the loser, which starts to get on White's nerves.
At that same time in the Hell Train Conductor office, FUG Ranker Pedro remains ready to take on Princess Yuri and her Guide, Evan. The latter of which figures that Pedro must be hiding something due to his display of confidence against a Jahad Princess. Pedro questions Yuri's goal since Jahad's goons breaking into the Hell Train to kill him would go against the rules of the Tower. However, Yuri assures him that this will just be a person fight between the two of them. He thinks to himself that Yuri's currently underestimating him given that she must think that the gap between her being a Jahad Princess and him being just a no-name Ranker means that she won't have to take things seriously. Despite Evan warning her that Pedro's up to something, Yuri charges in with just her fists, which her punches are powerful enough to cause explosive attacks upon Pedro. After the explosions subside however, Pedro remains standing as he reveals his trump card that protected him from the damage. A large purple creature is now seen alongside Pedro. He explains it to be a Purple Dementor; a powerful Scout Observer that was gifted to him from FUG Slayer Karaka. Despite Pedro warning that even High Rankers fear the Purple Dementor, Yuri gets even more hyped for the fight.
As the battle within the Hell Train Conductor office continues, Pedro warns Princess Yuri that she will have to defeat his Purple Dementor Observer before he tells her where Bam is within the Hell Train. Evan tries to warn her about the dangers of the Purple Dementor given that it's an Ancient Observer given from FUG, but Yuri continues to just go the brute force method with her fists. Seeing Yuri punch at his Purple Dementor, Pedro gets excited that she doesn't know about his secret weapon within the Purple Dementor's claw. Yuri's punches end up having no effect on the Purple Dementor as she goes about dodging the shinsu beams it shoots from its mouth. She's questions why a Scout Observer would have such weapons, which Pedro explains that it was crafted ages ago when Scouts needed better protection during the time that the Great Family Wars were at their height.
As the fight continues, Pedro thinks over how he just has to distract Yuri long enough until she's hit by the poison that resides within the Purple Dementor's right hand. The moment the Purple Dementor attacks with its right claw however, Yuri suddenly decides to grab hold of it, which confuses Pedro. Yuri reveals how she caught on that the Purple Dementor's hiding something since the Ancient Observer's been holding back with its right claw up to this point. She then bashes open the Purple Dementor's right claw, and sure enough, she sees the stored poison come pouring out of it. The watching Evan's glad to see that Yuri's using her brain for the fight, but Pedro refuses to give up since his Purple Dementor still has its laser beam attack.
The Purple Dementor fires a massive shinsu laser from its mouth at Yuri, but she dodges it once more. Yuri then relies on her Ha Family Shinsu Hadouken technique to create a special red ball of energy within her hands. She then casts it out as her special Ha Family skill, the Red Velvet Sword, which it appears as a red beam of shinsu that destroys the Purple Dementor. After defeating the Ancient Observer, Yuri charges at Pedro. She launches a barrage of punches at him, which Pedro's fast enough to dodge each strike. Yuri then dodges Pedro's attempt to launch a ranged shinsu counter, and then powers up for a final devastating punch upon him; claiming that he will pay for the sin of playing with another person's life (referring to Bam). She then proceeds to land a powerful uppercut upon Pedro, which sends the defeated FUG Ranker flying.
Having officially lost his duel with Yuri, the defeated Pedro crashes back down to the floor of the Hell Train Conductor office. Pedro's left lying on the floor, unable to move, and is now on the verge of death. Yuri confronts the dying Pedro to make him hand over Bam's location within the Hell Train. However, Pedro gloats in his dying words that she's too late since even if Viole wins against White, he's already caught in the trap that's been placed for him. The trap being that the Dallar Show's been programmed to pour boiling acid into the Motor Core, which will kill everyone within it that's taking part in the core's Go to Hell game.
Back at the Motor Core, Poro sees that Bam's exhausted, and announces a short break before the next hostage rescue. The white-haired girl takes note of Bam saving his enemy, which she wonders if he's trying not to lose his humanity. She thinks back to a moment before the Go to Hell game where Pedro had arrived at her Hell Train location; ordering her as Hoaqin's clone to take part in the final Dallar Show game. She questions why Pedro's doing this since there's nothing stopping her from going against him, which Pedro warns her that she just has to not side with Viole as his and Karaka's goal is to resurrect White and Viole's death.
In the present, the next round of the Go to Hell game begins with Akraptor being chosen from Bam's team to be sent down the spiral pipe. White calls out Bam as arrogant for claiming that he can save everyone in the Go to Hell game since the world they live in is based around the concept of the strong devouring others in order to rise up the Tower. Akraptor is then sent down the spiral pipe, which White explains that even though he believes that Bam will waste all his Dallar Coins saving the hostages, which would make White the winner, such a win wouldn't satisfy him when their beliefs are so different. Thus, he's decided that he will spend 20 Dallar Coins to go down and kill Akraptor when he's sent into the central pipe to force a duel with Viole. Once Akraptor falls to the 20 Dallar Coin spiral pipe exit, White and Bam set off down the central pipe. White noting that Bam's desire to save everyone has made the latter even faster. Meanwhile within the Submarine of Choice, Khun taunts Rachel over White's inability to not just sit and wait for Bam to waste all his Dallar Coins on the rescues, but Rachel remains confident that it's impossible for Bam to win in a duel against White.
Announcing that he's no hypocrite like Viole, White attacks Bam during their descent down the central pipe. White uses his White-Style Spirit Sword: The Wake of the Dead sword technique against Bam, which the latter manages to avoid, and then counters with Hansung Yu Style Shinsu Manipulation Skill: Waves of Peacock Wings to send up to eight shinsu Bangs at White. Bam claims that nothing about the Tower matters to him other than saving the one before him, which he distracts White enough with a Hansung Yu Style Shinsu Manipulation Skill: Maelstrom shinsu blast in order to get ahead of White going down the pipe. After witnessing Bam's skills, White's forced to admit it that Viole's someone who can reach the top of the Tower without having to kill anyone. However, White still chooses to reject Viole since such a philosophy goes against everything that White believes in about the Tower. At the moment Bam reaches Akraptor being sent into the central pipe, White aims to finish Viole off with his Phantom Master Sword technique that sends a powerful ranged shinsu blast down upon Bam and Akraptor.
White's ranged attack comes so quick that Bam realizes that he won't be able to dodge it in time. However, it's at this point that the white-haired girl intervenes, and sends a blast of shinsu that blocks the Phantom Master Sword from hitting Bam and Akraptor. The white-haired girl explains that she's seen enough; having deemed Hoaqin/White as someone who still hasn't changed his evil nature. White remains confused that the white-haired girl claims she knowns him since she isn't one of his siblings, which she reveals what she actually is. That she's a newly formed clone combined from the billion vengeful spirits that Hoaqin sacrificed over the years. The white-haired girl then flies down to Bam's location. Standing before Bam, she tells him that his desire to save everyone will meet its limit one day, but the souls within her have decided that today will not be such a day. Thus, between White and Viole, she and the souls within her have decided to side with Viole. Everyone watches in shock as the white-haired girl stabs her sword into Bam to transfer the souls into him. She informs Bam that if he can contain the vengeful souls, he will obtain a great power.
In the Train Conductor's Office, the dying Pedro taunts Yuri and Evan that Viole and his companions will not be able to escape the Motor Core once the boiling acid pours in to kill them. Yuri points out that the trap would kill White as well, but Pedro reveals that Rachel's friend, Yura Ha, has a teleport ability that will allow for Team Rachel and White to escape the Motor Core. Despite Pedro's taunts, Yuri remains convinced that Bam and his companions will find a way to escape the Motor Core since they've always been survivors who figure things out. Thus, she orders Pedro once more to reveal Bam's location within the Hell Train.
At that same time within the Motor Core, Bam had just obtained the power of over a billion vengeful souls that were transferred into him from White's female-clone. Bam feels his body, and is stunned by how powerful and light he feels, which the female-clone is surprised to see that Bam's not freaking out. After Bam assures her that he's fine, the female-clone explains how White created her long ago combining the souls of the many he killed, but lost control over her when he was forced to split up on the Hell Train. She then explains how the power she's given Bam is only part of her strength, but it contains all the souls' fury and hatred directed towards their killer, White. Both the soul-powered Bam and White then return to stand at the top of the Go To Hell pipe. White being left wondering if Bam really did take his billion-soul power. After the rescued Akraptor's dropped off to be with the rest of Bam's team, the two injured D-rank Regulars, Daniel and Aka, discuss Bam's actions. Daniel points out that Bam's hard to figure out as someone choosing to save both friend and enemy, which Aka admits that unlike them who sacrificed Roen, Bam's proving to be someone who doesn't sacrifice people.
The next round of the Go to Hell game begins with Raguel being chosen as the hostage for White's team to be sent down the spiral pipe. Bam prepares to jump as White thinks the recent events over; finding it absurd that his clone gave Viole a soul-power that he can't use. Once Raguel's fall drops to just 5 Dallar Coins, Bam takes off down the central pipe faster than ever before, which White notices. Bam's exhaustion is also gone as Khun opens the exit to send Raguel into the central pipe. Thanks to his speed being boosted by the billion-soul power, Bam manages to save Raguel before she falls into the boiling liquid. Bam remains convinced that he can save everyone as he returns to the top platform again to stand opposite White once more. White questions Viole if he really absorbed the billion-soul power, which Bam figures that he must have as he can hear many of the people he sacrificed telling him to beat White. Returning over to Aka and Daniel, Aka questions if they too could have defeated White back then without needing to have anyone die.
The story flashes back 600 years ago to Boro's past team within the Hell Train some time after Poro brought them White's spellbook. Sachi reads over White's spell to the team. The basic gist being that White was forced to split into five parts due to being weakened, and that a sigil spell is in place to one day combine into White again once enough souls have amassed within the Hell Train. However, an outsider messing with the sigil will result in White's five pieces getting sealed away and trapped within the Hell Train. Boro gets the gist that they just need to lure someone with Hoaqin into the sigil to mess with it, but realizes that the sigil will take the outsider's life. However, Roen nominates herself; stating that since she got them all in trouble, she should be the one who ends it. In the present, Aka tells Daniel that other than the latter, the team all let Roen go through with it since they were afraid of death.
The flashback jumps forward to the moment that Boro's past team have lured out Hoaqin to the Hell Train location where the sigil spell was placed. Boro holds off Hoaqin with his sword skills long enough for Roen to activate White's sigil spell, which appears as a complex marking on the floor. Roen is seen standing within the middle of the sigil's floor markings, and announces to Hoaqin that he will now be sleeping forever. It turns out that Roen's teammates hadn't committed to who would be the sacrifice, but they let her do it at that moment believing that it was the obvious decision to have Roen die. Given that he likes Roen, Daniel runs to her hoping that she wouldn't go through with it, but the spell goes off; resulting in Roen's death, and Hoaqin and his four siblings getting sealed away aboard the Hell Train. Back in the present, Aka apologizes for not stopping Roen, but Daniel replies that he just wishes that the team let him die with Roen. For the Go to Hell game, the last hostage from Bam's team to be sent down the spiral pipe is chosen to be Miseng. In the Submarine of Choice, Khun remains convinced that White will aim to settle things this round. He questions who Rachel thinks will win, which Rachel answers that it will be White.
Miseng is then sent down the spiral pipe, which both Bam and White take off down the central pipe once Miseng's fall reaches the 20 Dallar Coin marker. White aiming to defeat Viole in this round. As Bam and White fly down the pipe, White attacks with his White-Style Spirit Sword: The Rise of the Dead technique where he sends thousands of blade strikes at Bam. However, Bam's able to dodge through the strikes, and lands a punch upon White's face, much to everyone's shock that a hit landed on White. The hit leaves White stunned still refusing to believe that Bam took his billion-soul power away. He attempts to strike at Bam once more with his White-Style Spirit Sword: The Flame of the Dead technique yelling at Viole to give him his power back. However, Bam refuses; claiming that its a power of hatred of everyone White sacrificed directed squarely at him. Bam's eyes glow, and a golden shinsu sword made of the billion-soul power forms within his hand. Bam claiming that it's a sword pointed at White and his arrogance. The sight of Bam created a soul-power sword leaves everyone shocked as Bam swings a shinsu blast towards White. The latter of which is left stunned in disbelief that Bam copied his Arie-sword techniques and is using it against him.
White manages to parry Bam's billion-soul sword, but he's so confused by what he's witnessing that he calls Viole a monster, and questions who he is. In return, Bam states that the only monster is White as he prepares to swing his billion-soul sword again. As time is running out due to Miseng's fall dropping below 10 Dallar Coins, White sword duels with Bam; refusing to believe what's happening, and ordering Viole to give him back his billion-soul power since he's the great God who deserves it. However, Bam eventually lands a powerful billion-sword sword strike upon White, which the latter's unable to dodge. To everyone's shock, Bam has defeated White. The defeated White falls down the central pipe as Bam manages to fly down and save Miseng before she falls into the boiling liquid. The watching Daniel wonders if Roen's watching as he's now witnessed an incredible person manage to save everyone while also defeating Hoaqin/White. Poro as the referee then makes the announcement that with White defeated while Viole's team leads the hostage rescues 3 to 2, Team Viole has officially won the Dallar Show.
Bam returns to his celebrating companions with the rescued Miseng as Daniel and Aka continue to watch. Aka states to Daniel that while their past team all regrets not stopping Roen's sacrifice, they don't regret stopping Daniel from dying with her since Roen died so that Daniel could continue living. The story flashes back to the moment that Daniel met with Roen the night before they put their "Sealing Hoaqin" plan into action. Roen informs Daniel that she's made the decision to be the one who gets sacrificed to the sigil spell, but before Daniel could try to talk her down, she reveals her feelings that she's been holding in, which is that she likes Daniel. Boro, Sachi, and Aka sleeping nearby are all seen awake overhearing the conversation between Roen and Daniel, which Roen states that she's choosing to be the sacrifice out of her love for Daniel. Thus, she asks for Daniel to not hate or resent anyone for her choice to sacrifice herself to seal Hoaqin. In the end, she thanks Daniel for existing as she's so in love with him that it's allowing her to not even fear death.
After winning the Dallar Show, Bam's seen resting with his companions within the Motor Core. Feeling his body, he senses that the power of the billion-souls has calmed down, and wonders what happened to it. The white-haired female clone then approaches Bam, and along with providing him thanks for allowing the souls White killed to release some of their pent-up resentment, she also thanks Bam for achieving revenge for them by defeating White. The female clone assures Bam that the billion souls within his body will help him from here on out, which Bam thanks her for all she's done for him. Daniel then approaches the female clone hoping that she's capable of bringing back Roen. However, the female clone reveals that she isn't capable of resurrecting the fallen as Roen's and all the other souls who created her have already lost their personalities. As a result, Daniel leaves a tearful message to the female clone for Roen's soul to hear. The message being that he also loved her, and that he's thankful for letting him live.
At that same time, a defeated White is seen hovering over the Go To Hell game's boiling liquid. White flashes back to a moment hundreds of years ago when he was his original self, Hoaqin, living within the Great Arie family's floating castle. Hoaqin's seen approaching his Great Family Head father, Arie Hon, and introduces himself as the proud son who will one day surpass father. Hearing of Hoaqin's goal to surpass him catches Hon's attention, and asks for the boy to follow along. The two of them eventually arrive at a massive floating sword hovering over the Arie floating castle. Hon explains how he controls his Tower Floor and Great Clan, and that the people worship him. All to the point that only the Great Ha and Great Khun families are stronger than him. As a result, he warns Hoaqin that the latter's incapable of surpassing him on his Floor as the giant sword hovering over the castle is the one and only Arie blade that his people poured their flesh and bones into in order to make Arie Hon the ruler. Thus, Hoaqin has two choices. He either becomes another part of Hon's giant blade, or leaves home in order to become a demon that surpasses him.
Returning to the present, White, along with Bam and his companions, watch as the boiling acid comes pouring into the Motor Core due to the trap activating upon Viole winning the Dallar Show. Within the Submarine of Choice, Khun orders Rachel to reveal her and Bam's past from outside the Tower since she lost their bet. However, they're interrupted by the boiling acid trap. Rachel gets the gist of what's going on that FUG never intended for Viole and his companions to make it out of the Motor Core alive, which she informs Khun that what happened here is just the beginning of FUG's greater story towards a path set by them. Yura then makes her move, and quickly heads over to White to teleport him out of the Motor Core using her special suitcase item. As Yura heads over to Rachel, the latter gives Khun one bit of info that she's aiming to stay on the Hell Train in order to go to the Floor of Death that lost its Floor Guardian. Said Floor being where the Irregular, Enryu, was said to have killed the Floor Guardian, and is the place where Bam's Thorn was discovered. Rachel also mentions that she too is interested in finding out who Bam is, and that if there's another piece of the Thorn there, they might figure out who Bam really is.
The information leaves Khun confused as Rachel bids him farewell. She jumps out of the Submarine of Choice to reunite with Yura. Bam spots Rachel in the distance, but is unable to do anything since Rachel's about to teleport away. Her last words to Bam being that they will be enemies the next time they see each other. At that same time, Yuri and Evan are seen racing through the Hell Train to reach Bam's location. The story flashes back to 10 minutes ago where Yuri and Evan witnessed Bam defeating White from the Train Conductor office's projector. The dying Pedro's left in disbelief that Hoaqin lost despite everything being stacked towards him to win. However, Pedro remains convinced that Viole's going to die anyway to the boiling acid trap. He agrees to tell Yuri where Viole is, which the orb within his office will teleport her to the path to the Motor Core. However, he warns her that she's too late as the boiling acid trap already activated, and that it takes 4 hours to reach the Motor Core from his orb. Back in the present, the impatient Yuri hopes that Evan knows of a way to get to the Motor Core faster. After thinking it over, Evan realizes that there is one path, but he warns Yuri that it's incredibly dangerous.
Along the Hell Train path towards Bam, Evan explain to Yuri how there's a waterway beneath them that leads to the Motor Core. However, the waterway is the tunnel that's filled with the boiling acid that's being poured into the Motor Core, which Evan warns that it's a powerful acid that was developed by Workshop. He warns that Princess Yuri will be defenseless against the acid since the Floor Guardian of the Floor the Hell Train's currently on will notice Yuri using Ranker shinsu within a Regular area. Thus, Yuri won't be able to protect herself with shinsu all that well against the boiling acid. Despite that, Yuri remains confident to take the waterway path as it's too good to pass up potentially saving a group of people that are about to die.
Meanwhile within the Motor Core, Bam and his companions watch from afar Yura Ha using her suitcase's teleportation skill to get herself, Rachel, Cassano, and Traveller out of the core to escape the boiling acid trap. Traveller being apologetic that he will probably be Viole's enemy the next time they meet. Meanwhile, Blarode and Quaetro are the only ones left in the hostage cage, which Blarode breaks them out. Their aim being to take the abandoned Buelsar and Raguel along with them as their new companions. Bam and Rak then set off to save Khun from the Submarine of Choice, who remains trapped within it due to the boiling acid pouring outside. Khun figures that his new goal should be to chase after Rachel to the Floor of Death, but questions how he's supposed to get through the acid. It's at this point that his Sweetfish pet appears next to him. The Sweetfish proceeds to enlarge itself, and places Khun within its mouth to protect him from the boiling acid. It then sacrifices itself in order to return Khun to Bam and Rak on the other side of the boiling acid.
After Khun's rescued, Bam and company look around the Motor Core for any potential exits. Khun spots the Tower Guide, Hwaryun, looking in the direction of the ceiling hole that's pouring the boiling acid into the Motor Core, which Khun realizes that she sees a path out. Despite knowing how dangerous it is going towards the boiling acid, Khun urges everyone to head towards the ceiling hole that's pouring in said acid. Everyone agrees to go along with it, which Sachi casts out a thorn vine tower that reaches up to the ceiling hole. Bam's companions all begin making their way up the thorn vine, which Khun assures Bam that Hwaryun saw a path out. As Bam and company all get close to the ceiling hole, the boiling acid pouring in at said hole explodes. Two beings then appear out of the acid hole before Bam and company, which to his surprise, Bam sees Yuri and Evan before him; having not seen them since the 1st Floor. Seeing that the boy from the 1st Floor's grown up, Yuri gives Bam a friendly greeting while also praising everyone for heading for the ceiling hole that was pouring in the boiling acid. She then casts out a shinsu bubble to protect everyone, and sends them off out of the Motor Core to escape using the boiling acid waterway.
Exiting the shinsu bubble, Yuri drops Bam and his companions off on a safe hallway path of the Hell Train. Bam then approaches Yuri since he's confused as to how she's here aboard the Hell Train. However, everyone's left shocked upon witnessing Yuri suddenly giving Bam a hug. Yuri congratulates Bam on a job well done, and tells him that he should get some rest. Given everything he just went through, Bam agrees to take a break.
Long Summary
The last group of Regulars led by Bam are seen having made it to the Hell Train's Slayer Candidate game arena. Poro looks down at the exhausted Bam realizing that Jue Viole Grace has arrived as Hoaqin points out to his sister, Anna, that the Slayer Candidate she's looking at is their enemy. From above, Princess Yuri looks closely at Bam's face on the video screen, and finds it unbelievable that that's actually the Bam she met back on the 1st Floor. She doesn't find any of this to make any sense whatsoever as Pedro looks at the situation in silence.
Yuri begins to get excited realizing that she's finally found 25th Bam. She asks Evan if he's seeing this as well, but Evan grabs hold of her asking Yuri to calm down since she could end up grabbing everyone's attention. Yuri orders Evan to let her go since she wants to reunite with Bam as soon as possible, but Evan reminds her that as Rankers, it's illegal to get involved with a matter concerning Regulars. He begs for Yuri to just stay here and continue watching. Looking back at Bam, Yuri still finds it unbelievable that the little brat has been alive all this time. She admits that he's gotten a bit taller, but overall, still has the same child-like look. Thinking over how Bam was supposed to be dead, Yuri begins to wonder how he managed to survive, and make it this far up the Tower. Evan is surprised by Bam's appearance as well admitting to himself that he didn't believe it back at the visit to Princess Repellista's villa, and yet here he is looking at Bam standing alive-and-well on the Hell Train.
Evan finds this to be unbelievable since he truly believed that Bam had died back in the final test of the 2nd Floor. He's left wondering what it was that Bam must have been put through since then to climb all the way up to the D-rank area's Hell Train. Yuri asks Evan if Bam could perhaps hear her if she tries to call out to him right now, but Evan informs her that what they're currently looking at is just a video screen.
Pedro is the next to speak stating that it appears Yuri has located the boy she came searching for. However, he also points out how he's caught on to Yuri possibly knowing the boy based on how she reacted just now. Pedro asks if Bam is perhaps an old acquaintance of hers, which causes Yuri to sweat knowing that she messed up.
Yuri plays it off as a lie giving off a fake laugh, and claims that it's a given she wouldn't know Bam. She asks Pedro how she would know of a mere Regular, and explains that it only felt like she knew Bam well-enough because she's seen his face many times in a picture that she's using to help locate him. Pedro appears to buy Yuri's excuse as he states that it's a relief to hear that Bam isn't an acquaintance of the Jahad Princess. He explains to Yuri that the boy she came looking for isn't an ordinary Regular, which grabs her attention wondering what Pedro means by that.
Returning to the Slayer Candidate game arena, Poro tries to piece together how Bam's group showed up here since it appeared they came exploding in from above rather than entering through the main entrance path, and concludes that Bam's group must be a reckless bunch. Hoaqin calls out to Jue Viole Grace claiming that his sudden appearances are as loud as ever, and admits that Viole is deserving of some praise since the former was beginning to think that his Slayer Candidate opponent had chickened out, and run away. Hoaqin then states that he's glad Viole is here since now, he can make Viole regret not choosing to run away. In return, Bam continues to remain silent looking at the Hoaqin person that's going to be his main game opponent.
Khun looks to Hoaqin's group, and notices the little white-haired girl near him. He's left wondering if the girl is perhaps one of the Hoaqin copies that Sachi told him about earlier. Before he could think about it further, their attention is brought to someone else calling out to Viole. Bam's group turn their attention to the voice coming from Wangnan's group which an excited Bam admits that it's been a lot time since he's last seen him. Wangnan gives his greeting to Bam, but is moved out of the way by Rak since he wishes to speak to his original teammates.
The alligator yells out to Bam and Khun how they could leave their leader behind back at the Wooden Horse. Vicente is also seen looking over Bam knowing that the latter is the newest Slayer Candidate, Jue Viole Grace. Khun continues to think the situation over, and is confused as to why another white person, who looks like Hoaqin, is current with Wangnan's group. He wonders if this perhaps means that Wangnan was able to form an alliance with a Hoaqin copy.
Khun continues to think the situation over, and is glad to deduce that it appears Hoaqin still doesn't have is full power back yet. He looks at Bam not knowing how much stronger he's gotten after what went down in the God of Guardians' Rice Pot, but concludes that at first glance, nothing about Bam looks different. Khun figures that their best option to win this Slayer Candidate game is to make sure that Hoaqin doesn't become a Complete One again no matter what. Meanwhile, Bam looks around seeing that some of his companions (Akraptor, Miseng, Prince, Blarode, and Quaetro) are still missing.
Train Administrator Poro speaks from his platform above that now that all the Hell Train Regulars have gathered, they will begin the Slayer Candidate game. Bam and company turn their attention to Poro, who they realize is the Regular that was helping Team Rachel back at Train City. Poro announces that Stage 4 of the Hell Train will soon begin to determine who will be the true Slayer Candidate.
The game is known as a deathmatch that will put everyone's live on the line. Showing a massive gold coin on a video screen, Poro announces that the game they will be playing is the Dallar Show. The Regulars are all confused by the announcement of the Dallar Show, which Poro admits that it's a game not familiar with most Regulars. Poro explains that the Dallar Show is a game with a long history where delegates from the Ten Great Families put their lives on the line. Back then, the purpose of the game was to help decide how the rights of the Tower would be split amongst said families. He also points out that the main component of the game is for players to compete with one another over points that are called Dallars.
Continuing the game explanation, Poro states that the Dallar Show will be divided into three total rounds. He explains that the Dallars earned on Round One will be used for Round Two, and then the same case for Round Two will happen for Round Three. After Round Three finishes, the winner will be decided based on which Slayer Candidate team has more Dallar points. Poro sums up the game as basically being the type where the main goal is to save up as much points as possible until it reaches the end. Poro continues the game's explanation stating that all Regulars will be given a random amount of starting Dallars amongst the two Slayer Candidate teams. However, the sum of the Dallars when adding up all the Regulars on a team will be the same amount despite Bam's team having many more players than Hoaqin's team. Poro adds that this will especially be the case for Bam's team since the Regular group that arrived with Wangnan will be added into Bam's team to face off against the Hoaqin team.
Pointing towards the arena surrounding the Regulars, Poro states that the Dallar Show's First Round will take place here. He explains that each of the matches will have a limit and restriction on the points as to how many Dallars a team can come away with after each match. Poro also asks the Regulars to remember that Regulars who win their match can double their Dallar intake by taking the same amount from the losing player as a reward. Basically, if one wins a 5 Dallar bet, they can then take another 5 Dallars from the loser's overall bank. Once the Regular wins said Dallars, the Dallars will then transfer over to the team's leader. The leaders of the teams being Jue Viole Grace and Hoaqin.
Wangnan and company begin to understand what Poro is implying, which Poro answers that their thinking is correct. That once teams have gathered enough Dallars through the first Two Rounds of the Dallar Show, Jue Viole Grace and Hoaqin will then face off against one another with the Dallars they've obtained in the Third Round. Khun concludes that this basically means the Dallar Shows purpose is to make sure everyone else is elminated by the time the two Slayer Candidates face off.
Showing a Dallar coin before the Regulars, Poro informs them that said coin is the most important factor of the game. He explains that as long as a Regular has one or higher Dallars still attached to them, then they can participate in the Dallar Show. However, if a Regular ends up losing all their Dallars, then they can no longer participate.
Poro also warns the Regulars that the possibility of a Regular losing their life here could also happen, and asks for the Regulars to be cautious when they decide to bet their Dallars. With all that said, Poro states that it's about time to distribute the Dallars to everyone as the coin Poro showed off begins to shine brightly.
Many coins begin to rain down on the Regulars as Poro reminds them that each Regular will be given a random amount between the two teams. However, the most a Regular could possibly have at the beginning of the game is 10 Dallars. Wangnan yells in excitement as the sight of money dropping on them while Rak wonders if they're actually chocolate coins. A Dallar drops into Bam's hand, who looks it over to see what a Dallar looks like up close.
Poro warns the Regulars to be careful not to reveal their Dallar amount to the enemy team as it could easily become a disadvantage for them. He advises the Regulars to keep that information to themselves unless a special reason comes up where the reveal will be necessary. Khun thinks this information over as Poro announces that the Dallar Show's First Round will now begin. He also states that a 15 Dallar reward will be given to the team that comes out the winner here.
Showing off a silver-colored fish on the screen, Poro announces that the match for the First Round will be the Catching the Sweetfish game. Informing the Regulars that he will explain the rules of the Catching the Sweetfish game in a few moments, Poro also states that for the First Round, only two Regulars from each team will be participating here.
Poro asks for the Regulars, who randomly received the highest amount of 10 Dallars, to approach the stadium. Buelsar of Hoaqin's team steps forward to show that he received 10 Dallars while Bero of Bam's team received it for his side, much to the shock of Wangnan and Rak.
Rachel steps forward as well to show her team that she also received 10 Dallars. Bam notices that Rachel will already be joining in on the Dallar Show as the rest of his side talk amongst the group wondering who it was apart from Bero that got the other 10 Dallar amount. Khun steps forward stating that it was him, and informs Bam and company that he will be back soon. The First Round is now set up to be Rachel and Buelsar vs. Khun and Bero.
Above the Slayer Candidate arena, Yuri continues to watch the video screen having heard Poro's entire explanation of the Dallar Show. She turns back to Pedro asking what's going on hearing that the Regulars will be taking part in a deathmatch that could result in people getting killed.
Another thing that caught Yuri's attention is why this is a game that will decide who will be the true Slayer Candidate. Pedro explains that it's all related to something he forget to tell her since this Dallar Show game isn't just some simple match. Yuri asks what he means by that, which Pedro explains that this Dallar Show game holds many important factors connected to the Regulars currently partaking in it.
Pedro continues to explain to Yuri that the Dallar Show is a match between Jue Viole Grace and Hoaqin where their comrades lives will be on the line. He also points out the more valuable thing that's on the line here, which is the position of FUG's upcoming FUG Slayer. Pedro then gets straight to the point that Bam, the boy Yuri came to the Hell Train searching for, is FUG's newest Slayer Candidate, Jue Viole Grace, which stuns Yuri in complete shock. As the next Slayer Candidate of FUG, Pedro reveals to Yuri that Bam has the Thorn currently within him, which is the weapon that will be used to stab the hearts of King Jahad, and his Ten Great Family leaders. Yuri asks what kind of bullshit this is she just heard as Pedro warns her that soon enough, Bam will become her worst enemy due to Yuri's status as a Jahad Princess.
The shocked Yuri asks if she heard correctly that Bam has been established as FUG's Slayer Candidate, which Pedro states once that it's the truth, and that he's been given the name Jue Viole Grace. She orders Pedro once more to cut the crap asking if the Train Conductor if he really believes she's going to believe that bullshit, but Pedro assures her that it's the truth. He explains how for a long time now, Bam had been training to be the next Slayer Candidate, and has gained a lot of strength during that time-frame.
Pedro also states that if Bam wins this match, he will be 100% approved as the true Slayer Candidate over his opponent. He says once more that while he doesn't understand why the Jahad Empire have come here searching for Bam, the boy known as Jue Viole Grace will become their worst enemy.
Pedro thinks to himself that he shouldn't get agitated about Yuri being here since in the end, his side still holds the bait. He also begins to believe that Yuri is only here to see Bam for personal reasons, and that even if she tried to take the boy away from here, she wouldn't be allowed to go all out here anyway. Pedro figures that his best option at the moment would be to lock up this Jahad Princess within the rules of the Hell Train so that there won't be any further interruptions from her.
Yuri becomes enraged due to everything she just heard, and begins to step toward Pedro; calling him a bastard, and is about ready to start a fight. However, Evan holds her back begging her to calm down since they're technically still inside Pedro's Hell Train. Evan warns her that there's something around here that Pedro will rely on if they engage in a fight on the Hell Train, which grabs Yuri's attention asking what he means by that. He explains that they were currently only able to see Bam through a video screen, so they have no idea where the boy is on the Hell Train currently. He also reminds Yuri that Pedro has all the lives of Bam's comrades in his hand, who are here on the Hell Train with the boy. Due to all this, Evan makes it clear to Yuri that Pedro is threatening them by using Bam as bait.
Evan gets serious turning his attention to Pedro, and asks the Train Conductor if his claim about Bam being bait is wrong. He orders Pedro to tell them the truth believing that Pedro is most likely also a member of FUG due to all his Slayer Candidate knowledge, and asks what his purpose is being a part of the Hell Train. Pedro confirms that he is indeed a follower of FUG, and that his title is known as Pedro the Death Eye. He explains to Evan and Yuri that he's been put in charge of the Slayer Candidate match, and that he's hoping to achieve this mission to further the goals of FUG.
Pedro asks for Evan and Yuri to promise him a few things, which grabs their attention. The Train Conductor first asks for the two of them to not interfere with the Slayer Candidate game no matter what happens. The second thing Pedro asks is for the two of them to have a match with him. Yuri is surprised to hear the challenge as Pedro thinks to himself that no matter what, he will be sure to lock her here within the rules of the Hell Train. Pedro explains the bet that he will allow Yuri to meet with Bam if he comes out the winner of the Slayer Candidate game. However, if Bam loses, then Yuri will have to give up her life, which leaves the Jahad Princess silent.
Evan yells out how that kind of bet makes any sense, but Pedro informs them that if they refuse his bet, he will teleport them off the Hell Train in an instant. Pedro reminds them that as the Train Conductor, he has the right to kick them both off at any time, and warns Yuri that if she fails to meet Bam here, it will become very hard to come across him at a later time. He also points out that it's a strong possibility that the two of them will never see Bam again. With all that said, Pedro asks once more if they accept his challenge.
Yuri thinks it over for a moment, and states that she accepts the challenge, which shocks Evan as he asks how the Princess could accept such a crazy proposal. However, Yuri steps toward Pedro showing her anger over all this.
She adds another piece to the bet stating that if Bam comes out the winner of the Slayer Candidate game, she will take Pedro's life. Continuing to look down at Pedro, Yuri warns the Train Conductor that along with him, she swears on her honor that she will be sure to kill off the rest of the filthy FUG bastards from the Tower. She asks if Pedro is up for this as well, which the Train Conductor answers that he is.
Returning to the Slayer Candidate game arena, Poro asks for the four people who randomly received 10 Dallars to appear on the stage for the Dallar Show's First Round. Before Khun departs, he tells Bam that he will be back, which the latter asks the former to be careful in the match. Moments later, Khun, Bero, Rachel, and Buelsar all appear at the center of the arena to begin the First Round. Khun looks his two opponents, Rachel and Buelsar, over thinking that neither of them look that strong. Buelsar thinks the same thing about Khun and Bero as latter beings to get angry looking at Buelsar knowing that he killed her teammate, Tochi, earlier. Rachel however, is the only one continuing to remain completely silent.
Khun turns to Bero asking why she's on Bam's team, and states that it would have been more helpful if she just wasn't around. The question gets Bero angry as Khun continues to bully her asking if she's perhaps a simple rider of the Hell Train known as Passenger One or something.
However, Bero orders Khun to just do his job against Rachel since shes here solely to get revenge on Buelsar for killing Tochi. A moment later, Poro interrupts in order to begin explaining the rules for the Dallar Show's First Round. Poro reminds the Regulars that the First Round will be the Catching the Sweetfish game, which is quite literally a game where they will need to catch the Sweetfish.
The Train Administrator advises the four Regulars to remain focused throughout this game as the Sweetfish will play an important role in the later Dallar Show rounds. With that said, Poro states that he will now show off the Sweetfish the two teams will be trying to catch. A small water tank suddenly appears before Khun, Bero, Buelsar, and Rachel.
The group of four look into the tank, and see the small gray-colored Sweetfish swimming within it. Khun admits that while the Sweetfish looks fast, it doesn't appear to be that dangerous either due to its small size. Poro explains that the goal of the game is for one of the teams to catch the Sweetfish without killing it. If they end up killing it, they will automatically lose the game, and the 15 Dallar game reward will be handed over to the team that didn't kill the Sweetfish. Poro states that they can attempt to catch the Sweetfish by any means necessary, including killing off their opponents, which grabs the attention of the four participants. Poro informs the teams that the 15 Dallar reward for winning the First Round will be taken from the loser team, which overall, will make the difference between the two teams as 30 Dallars.
With the game explanation over, Poro asks for the First Round's Catching the Sweetfish game to begin as Bero is seen charging at Buelsar right away. Some of Bam's team question her action as Buelsar asks if Bero has decided not to go for the Sweetfish. However, Bero chomps down on her lollipop stating that she doesn't care about the game, and is only here to get revenge for Tochi's death.
Stating that 80% suger charge from her lollipop should be enough, Bero warns Buelsar to be prepared. Looking at Bero annoys Buelsar wondering if his current opponent is someone who gets stronger depending on how much of that lollipop candy she eats.
The fight between Bero and Buelsar goes down in the background as Khun stands before Rachel at the fish tank stating that it appears it will just be the two of them taking part in the actual game. Khun looks down at the Sweetfish, but instead of going for it, he asks Rachel to attempt first, which confuses her.
Khun explains that it's nothing major other than believing it would be wrong to not give her an advantage. He assures her that in the end, he will be the winner of the game since a simple catching game is easy for him. He taunts her that the only reason he's giving her the first try is because he has a feeling that she won't be able to get it anyway.
Rachel remains silent to Khun's taunt as the latter reminds the former of that day many years ago when she betrayed Khun by killing Gyetang, left Dan for dead, and ran away with the other two traitors, Apple and Michael. Khun admits that he still hasn't gotten a lead as to where Apple and Michael went, but knows for a fact that it was Rachel who stabbed Dan's legs, and left him for dead. Khun states that said incident taught him something very important regarding Rachel. That she can't do anything on her own. Khun points out how pathetic it is that Rachel is someone who can't even do something as simple as walking tall and proud on her own without people around her.
He taunts Rachel that it's for this reason that she chose to stab Dan while he was down back then, and that her legs are so lousy and weak that she was jealous even towards someone who was on the edge of death. Because of this incompetence, Khun taunts Rachel once more stating that this is why he knows for a fact that Rachel won't be able to catch the Sweetfish within the water tank.
Meanwhile, the Bero vs. Buelsar fight continues to go on. Buelsar is left in a state of shock seeing Bero able to keep up with him, and is currently deflecting a barrage of punches from the fat Regular unable to find an opening to counter her. He is left wondering if it would have been better had he not chosen to kill off the Tochi person beforehand as the enraged Bero continues to throw punches in his direction.
Back to Khun and Rachel, the latter finds Khun's claims to be a joke as she begins to prepare her lighthouses. Rachel claims that she understands very well how much Khun looks down on her, and asks that Khun watch as she proves that she's not as useless as he thinks.
Rachel's lighthouses hover over the Sweetfish tank prepared to catch it in her lighthouse field as the fish is seen jumping out of the water. Bam and company continue to watch the match unfold as a scared Hanool asks what Khun is doing since his opponent is about to catch the Sweetfish. Rachel continues to move her lighthouses as she claims to Khun that she will catch the Sweetfish with the strength of her own two hands.
However, Khun gives her the bad news that Rachel will not be able to do it, because the Sweetfish is too big for her to catch. The revelation shocks Rachel as the Sweetfish begins to glow, and is suddenly much larger, and begins to break out of her lighthouse field. She realizes that the Sweetfish had been compressed since the start of the game, and that Khun had baited her into going first because he knew this.
She orders the Sweetfish to stop, but fears for the worst knowing that she's too weak to stop it as the Sweetfish charges toward Rachel ready to eat her. Bam continues to watch Rachel struggle fearing for her life as Hoaqin gives off a laugh claiming that Rachel's effort in this game is pathetic. Before Rachel could get eaten by the Sweetfish, Khun activates his lighthouse field to trap the fish within it, which surprises her.
Khun taunts Rachel once more that he knew Rachel wouldn't be able to catch it, and that in the future, she still won't be able to have anything with her own two hands. He tells Rachel that whenever she will try to get something, he will always be there to take it away from her. Poro is heard overhead announcing that Khun has succeeded in catching the Sweetfish. As a result, Viole's team has won the First Round of the Slayer Candidate game.
With the match over, Khun continues to taunt the loser by informing Rachel that despite Dan not being back to his original speed, he's recovered greatly to the point of still being quite fast. Khun also points out that Dan's current status is probably still a much faster run speed than Rachel. He taunts Rachel that compared to Dan, she has not improved at all since then, which stabs into Rachel's soul. Khun points out that God is truly fair, because even if Rachel had two healthy legs, God wouldn't let Rachel run fast no matter what as long as her soul continues to remain rotten on the inside.
The defeated Rachel clenches her fist in anger knowing that Khun got the best of her here. At this point, Poro announces that since the First Round has come to an end, he asks for the four people who participated in the Catching the Sweetfish game to return to their teams. Buelsar is left annoyed that the fish was taken while he was stuck in a fight against the fat Regular.
Bero, who is seen sweating after the fight, is left wondering who the monster Regular is that she just attempted to fight. She thinks to herself how bizarre it is that she used 80% sugar charge, but still wasn't able to make Buelsar feel exhausted.
A moment later, Rachel and Buelsar return to the rest of their team. The latter of which apologizes to Hoaqin for their failure to come out the winners in the First Round. As the defeated Rachel passes by Hoaqin, the Slayer Candidate admits that the First Round was interesting to watch. Rachel hears Hoaqin give off a laugh as the latter states that he got to see how pathetic Rachel truly is. He questions how it was that Rachel managed to make it this far up the Tower, and admits that he was foolish to think that she would be useful to him. Hoaqin orders Rachel to not even think about participating in the Dallar Show from here on out. Rachel reunites with her other teammates as Yura walks up to her to check if she's ok after the loss. Rachel answers with a smile stating that she's alright. Meanwhile, Khun returns over to his team, which Bam congratulates him on a job well done in the First Round.
Khun admits that it wasn't much, but points out that he has this weird thing stickied to him now as the group realizes that the Sweetfish is now floating next to Khun. Hanool congratulates Khun for his success as well while Moontari points out that Khun member wasn't bad, and asks for him to join Team Aka. In return, Khun asks if they really believed he was that weak.
Khun then informs Bam that had the latter not been here watching, he would have allowed the Sweetfish to eat Rachel. He warns Bam that if he was to come across Rachel again, he can't guarantee that her life will still be intact, which grabs Bam's attention.
Poro announces that with the First Round over, 15 Dallars will now be transferred from Hoaqin's team over to Viole's team. He explains that how the 15 Dallars will be collected from Hoaqin's team will be up to Viole's team, but informs them that they should keep in mind that depending on the amount they take away from Regulars within Hoaqin's team could result in people getting disqualified if all the Dallars of specific Regulars are taken away.
Poro then informs the Regulars that a 20 minute break will now occur before moving on to the next Hell Train area for Round Two of the Dallar Show. He asks for the Regulars to remain here during the break as an exhausted Bero is seen returning to her team begging for more sugar. Wangnan walks up to her asking if the fat Regular is ok.
Returning to above the Slayer Candidate game arena, Yuri points out that the blue guy in Bam's team turned out to be not that bad winning the First Round almost on his own. She turns back to Pedro, and taunts him that it appears he doesn't have much time left. However, Pedro replies back that there's still more to watch since only the First Round of the Dallar Show has ended.
Back to the arena, Wangnan's team is seen from afar calling out to Bam's group congratulating them for the victory. Rak also yells toward Bam and Khun that he will get back at them later for leaving out their team's leader. Khun thinks over how it's a good thing that so far, his group managed to get through the First Round without any issues since he was originally believing that FUG has made the rules unfair to somehow give Hoaqin's team the edge. However, he confirms that at the moment, the Dallar Show game so far has been completely legit.
Khun looks back to Wangnan's group, and continues to question how it was that they managed to recruit what looks like one of Hoaqin's copies to their side. He wonders if this perhaps means that there's some inner conflict going on between the copies, and confirms that they must be hiding something since this whole story going on between the Hoaqin copies comes off fishy. Khun duduces that the key to winning will be to find out what the secret is regarding the connection between the Hoaqin copies.
At another Hell Train location is the cage that has Akraptor, Prince, Miseng, Blarode, and Quaetro, in it. Prince yells out begging someone to come save them since they all wish to get out of it. He complains that it's now been a month since they've been locked up here, and that staying here has been driving himself crazy, but Miseng orders Prince to get a grip. However, Prince continues to yell out to set them free asking where his human rights are as a boy in puberty.
Miseng asks Akraptor what they should do since Prince appears to have gone crazy, which Akraptor answers that they should just leave him alone for now. The irritated Prince asks himself what's going on at the moment regarding Viole and company, but it's at this point that something catches his attention. Prince informs the other caged Regulars that he just saw something move outside of it.
Some time later, the Bam and Hoaqin teams arrive at the Hell Train arena for the Dallar Show's Second Round. The three groups (Bam's, Hoaqin's, and Wangnan's) stand on floating platforms high above an area filled with what looks like many overlapping water pipes. Poro, still on his personal platform floating above them, greets the Regulars for their arrival as he explains to the two teams that what they've arrived at is known as the Hell Train's 74th Motor Sector.
Everyone looks down a the glowing red sphere surrounded by many pipes below tham as Khun is left wondering if what they've arrived at is some kind of engine for the Hell Train. The rest of the participants look down at what's going to be their Second Round arena in awe as Wangnan points out that the massive engine area looks huge. A new massive screen appears behind Poro, who states that he will now explain the next game where they will be putting 30 Dallars on the line. The screen shows a fish floating above a massive red sphere surrounded by pipes as Poro states that the game for the Second Round will be known as Transferring the Sweetfish.
Poro explains that that like the title, the goal of the game is quite literally the requirement to transfer the Sweetfish to a new destination. Viole's team, who won the Sweetfish based on their victory in the First Round, will be the team that will be tasked as the escort. Their job is to safely transfer the Sweetfish to the core of the 74th Motor Sector arena by travelling through the pipes that are all around the area. The core being the red sphere that they can all see at the center of the pipe maze. Viole's team will win if they manage to get the Sweetfish to the core while Hoaqin's team will win if they manage to kill the Sweetfish before Viole's team completes the transfer.
Continuing the game explanation, Poro states that the teams will be split up into groups of three, who will then be placed at different starting locations around the entrances of the pipe maze. Despite being split into groups of three, the two overall teams between Bam and Hoaqin will still be completely active where the only objectives is to either protect or kill the Sweetfish. Poro also informs the Regulars that the Sweetfish will follow with Khun's three person group since he was the one who won the fish in the First Round. He also warns the participants that should opposing three man groups come across one another within the pipes, they can battle it out to try to win the opposing team's Dallars.
Poro also mentions a game mechanic regarding how the pipes work being that between each section of the pipes are special doors. These doors can be opened and closed depending on how many Dallars the team wishing to use the doors gives up. For example, one team could use 15 Dallars to lock a pipe door, but if the opposing team wishes to reopen the door, they must pay over the 15 Dallar price to open it again.
One other game mechanic Poro brings up is the squared Dallar multiplier. If a Regular has more than 10 Dallars, the overall total will get a x2 squared multiplier at the end of the Second Round. It's also a x3 square if a Regular obtains over 20 Dallars while it will be a x4 square if a Regular gets over 30 Dallars.
Long story short, the squared multiplier will continue to increase every time a Regular exceeds over 10 new Dallars, and will overlap with Regulars who perhaps don't get the chance to gain a multiplier. For example, if someone within a three man group has a x2 square multiplayer while a teammate within the group has five Dallars, then the total is 5-squared for a total of 25. Poro leaves off warning the people of the two Slayer Candidate teams to use these game rules wisely as it's dangerous to be left alone within the pipes. He then announces that it's about time to split Bam's and Hoaqin's teams into their three-man groups.
Khun thinks the game rules over realizing that it's set up to allow Hoaqin's group to attack first. He also deduces that despite Bam's team having a lot more members, their individual abilities are weaker in comparison to the powerhouses that make up Hoaqin's smaller team. Khun figures that because their large group is going to be split into smaller three person teams, it will become a disadvantage for them where Hoaqin's members could slowly begin to pick them off whenever they come across one of the weaker three man groups from Bam's team in the pipes.
Overall, Khun concludes that Bam's group needs to get rid of the enemy team quickly before many of their members get picked off. Poro announces at the Transferring the Sweetfish game will now begin as Hoaqin states to himself that he can't wait for this. He leaves off wishing the participants good luck.
Moments later, the members of the two Slayer Candidate teams begin to get teleported into the pipe maze. The Boro, Aka, and Sachi three man group are seen getting teleported in first while at another location, Rachel and Yura appear at a pipe location together. For the other pipe three man groups, Rak is seen on his own, Bam has been paired up with Hanool and Montari, Ehwa gets paired with Bero and Hongjo, and Daniel gets paired up with Hoaqin and Anna. Daniel looks up at the ceiling lights, and asks if what they're looking at is the inside of the Hell Train 74th Motor Sector pipes.
Khun, who had gotten paired up with Hwaryun and Danhwa at another pipe location, is seen thinking the exact same thing as Daniel, but unlike Daniel, points out how clean these Hell Train pipes look compared to the nasty ones he was originally thinking of. The giant Sweetfish, not big again, is seen travelling next to Khun, which the latter informs his two group members that their goal is simply to get said fish to the pipe core. He also finds it odd how the Sweetfish is so gentle all of a sudden despite how dangerous he looked earlier when it attacked Rachel in the First Round.
Looking back at Danhwa and Hwaryun, Khun mentions how he doesn't like the way the members in his Second Round group turned out, but states to them that it's time for them to get moving as they begin escorting the Sweetfish through their starting pipe. The Khun group's current stats is Khun having a x3 while Hwaryun has three Dallars, and Danhwa has two. Overall, since Hwaryun and Danhwa together are five Dallars, and the group total is three people, their Dallar amount together with Khun's triple squared multiplier is 5x5x5 for a total of 125 Dallars that Khun's escort group is worth currently.
At another pipe location, Wangnan is shown to have teleported into the maze with Vicente as his only group teammate. Holding the White Heavenly Mirror, Wangnan states to Vicente that it's time for them to get going in order to take Hoaqin down. The stats for Wangnan's group is seen where Wangnan has five Dallars, and Vicente has seven, for a total of 12 Dallars.
Switching to Hoaqin's pipe location alongside Daniel and Anna. Their starting Dallar stat is seen where Hoaqin has seven Dallars, Anna has six Dallars, and Daniel has three Dallars, for a total of 16 Dallars. Hoaqin reminds Daniel of the plan that the fish game will come later, and that their main objective at the moment is to bring Vicente back. Daniel replies back that he heard the first time, and informs Hoaqin that he's currently using Emile to help him locate the other siblings.
Hoaqin states that one by one, he plans to eat everyone up, and it will benefit them in the end anyway since they will need Dallars to attack the people escorting the Sweetfish. Giving off a grin, Hoaqin figures that in the end, they will be able to finish off the other Slayer Candidate known as Jue Viole Grace. Meanwhile, Bam continues to remain silent as he looks around at the pipes at his starting maze location.
Switching over to the Ehwa, Bero, and Hongjo, three person group, Bero points out how the pipes are humangous. Bero figures that due to the size of the pipe maze, there's a low chance of them coming across enemies right away, and that this is a perfect opportunity for her to charge up the sugar she used during the First Round against Buelsar. For the stats of Ehwa's group, Bero has ten Dallars, Ehwa has one Dallar, and Hongjo has five Dallars.
Bero returns to biting on her lollipop as she points out that she needs to recharge her sugar quickly since they now have an annoying thin girl in their group, which the shocked Ehwa asks if Bero considers her to be the problem here. Bero answers that to be the case since it's uncomfortable to eat around othe girls, which confuses Ehwa finding it surprising that Bero cares over something like this. Bero replies back that she's actually been restraining herself at the moment with Ehwa raound, which Ehwa points out that she's been witnessing Bero eating a lot anyway.
Meanwhile, as the Ehwa, Bero, and Hongjo group make their way through the pipes, the Buelsar and Angel group are seen having come across said three man group. Seeing Ehwa, Bero, and Hongjo, with their backs turned, Angel asks Buelsar if they should get things started against them. Buelsar replies to Angel that they should.
Returning to Bam's pipe location, he is seen walking along with Moontari and Hanool. The Dallar stats for the three man group are shown where Bam has one Dallar, Hanool has four Dallars, and Moontari has two Dallars, for a group total of seven Dallars. Hanool begins to complain that the pipes are scary since enemies could come out of nowhere at any time. He states that he was crazy to volunteer in coming here to the Hell Train, which Moontari replies that Hanool should give up his Dallars to him and step away from all this if he wants out. However, Hanool counters back that there's a possibility of dying if he was to give up his four Dallars, and states that since he's here, he's going to survive to the very end of the Dallar Show game.
Moontari wishes Hanool good luck trying to make it to the end as he looks around at the pipes. He admits to Bam and Hanool that the place comes off creepy to him as if a ghost is about to appear. Despite that, Moontari claims that of all the enemies, he hopes for Hoaqin to appear the most since he really wants the chance to fight him.
Hearing Moontari give off an excited laugh, Hanool yells back at him to stop saying stuff like that since their groups in no position with just seven total Dallars, and as a result, don't even have the option to run away. In return, Moontari agrees with the main problem that they're group is short on Dallars. He points out that even if they were to come across an enemy group that they could easily defeat, it wouldn't be possible to catch up to them if the enemy closes a pipe door using more than six Dallars.
Bam agrees as well, and states that because of this problem, they will have many things going against them for the moment. He explains to Moontari and Hanool that their path through the pipes could easily get blocked off trying to provide Khun's Sweetfish escort group support. Bam figures that their best option at the moment is to try to reunite with other comrades in the pipe maze as fast as possible since gathering together his team's Dallars will make them stronger.
At another pipe location is the Boro, Aka, and Sachi, team making their way through the pipes. Their group's stats is seen where Sachi has five Dallars, Boro has three Dallars, and Aka has two Dallars, for a group total of ten Dallars. Jumping over pieces of metal, Boro is heard complaining how dangerous the pipes seems to be. Aka agrees with the complaint thinking to himself that the pipes are more complex then he originally thought, and figures that his group had better not let their guard down. Sachi reminds Boro and Aka that they need to hurry since they won't stand a chance against Hoaqin if he manages to rejoin with any of his copies.
He gives the order to the two of them that defeating Hoaqin must come first before the main Sweetfish escort objective. He states once more that no matter what, Hoaqin must be defeated before he regains his strength. Meanwhile, the Hoaqin, Anna, and Daniel, three man group is seen making their way through the pipes. At Rak's pipe location, he sees that his only other teammate in his group is Cherry La from Team Bero. Their groups stats is shown where both Rak and Cherry were given just one Dallar. Meaning that overall, Rak's group is a total of just two Dallars. Rak looks over the pink Regular floating on her pink pillow seeing that she's mostly asleep, and wonders if she's perhaps already dead.
At that same time, the Ehwa, Bero, and Hongjo, three man group enter into a large pipe room that has odd-looking yellow cylinders all around the edges of the pipe. Bero asks what it is that they're currently looking at, which Ehwa informs her Team Bero teammates that she can see an exit high above. She asks if the purpose of this room is to jump up there using the yellow pillars scattered throughout the pipe. However, Bero points out that the yellow objects are too far apart from one another, so jumping to each one doesn't look like an option.
Hongjo, who's a giant red bird, states that he can carry Ehwa up there given that he can fly using his wings. The revelation surprises Ehwa, who thanks Hongjo for being nice enough to do that, but asks how he will do the same for Bero.
However, Hongjo replies that he's not going to carry her given that she's too heavy to carry. Hongjo suggests that he and Ehwa could still fly up to check, but Bero gets annoyed by Hongjo's earlier comment, and suggests that they should probably just go around since going through this room shouldn't be the only way to navigate the pipe maze. At this point, the Angel and Buelsar group enter the large room to greet the Ehwa and Team Bero group.
Buelsar looks around the large pipe room with the yellow cylinder objects, and points out that the area looks strange. Bero and Hongjo quickly realizes that it's the enemy Bero fought earlier who killed Tochi as Angel and Ehwa also notice one another. The stats for the Angel and Buelsar group are shown were Buelsar has three Dallars, and Angel has nine Dallars, for a total of 12 Dallars. Bero wonders to herself what she should do in this situation given that she still hasn't recovered her sugar from her First Round fight against Buelsar.
In return, Buelsar gives off a laugh mentioning how lucky he is that he got to meet the enemy of his last unfinished fight. Given that Buelsar lost seven Dallars from the original ten he had before the First Round, Buelsar orders the candy eater to get ready since he's about to get the Dallars he lost back. However, Ehwa quickly shoots a line of flames in their direction claiming that she's not going to allow this to happen. Hongjo dodges out of the way, but admits that the Yeon flames almost turned him into fried chicken.
Ehwa's flames swarm all around Buelsar and Angel as she calls out to Bero and Hongjo to use this chance for them all to run away up the yellow cylinder objects toward the unblocked exit. The two of them run towards Ehwa, which Bero complains that she's someone too big to pull off something like this. However, Ehwa orders her to shut up, and throws her up towards a yellow cylinder. Seeing Ehwa's strength, Hongjo admits she's awesome knowing that Ehwa's a member of the Great Yeon Family. Following after Bero, Ehwa and Hongjo land on a red circle atop one of the yellow cylinders with the fat Regular. However, to the surprise of all three of them, the red circle ends up bouncing them up high into the air.
The Yeon flames begin to subside off Buelsar and Angel, which the former complains that the flames of a Great Family is hot. To their surprise, they watch as Ehwa, Bero, and Hongjo, continue to bounce around between the red circles of the yellow cylinders throughout the room. Bouncing around the room, the three of them ask each other what's going on, but are unable to come up with an answer, as a confused Buelsar asks what the hell is going on. Angel however, gets excited seeing that Ehwa seems to have trapped herself in a bounce loop. Activating her trident weapon, she flies toward Ehwa's location, and thanks the Yeon member for the meal.
Before Angel could hit Ehwa, her trident is stopped by the arrival of Hongjo, who manages to grab it with one of his claws. Staring down at Angel, Hongjo asks what Angel thinks she's doing trying to hit a noble lady from the Ten Great Families. Ehwa thanks the giant red bird for the help as Hongjo asks where Angel's manners are since a person with wings should fight another who has wings such as himself. Angel is left confused as to who the hell the chicken head interrupting her is as she attempts to strike the red bird with her trident.
Hongjo manages to evade it, but when he tries to fly away, his wings are shown to be struggling, which greatly disappoints Ehwa as she realizes that Hongjo can't actually fly. Hongjo finally remembers this as well as they both drop down towards the yellow cylinders. The giant red bird bounces off a cylinder once more assuring Ehwa that he will protect her, but Ehwa covers her private region asking where it is that Hongjo is currently looking at.
Unlike Hongjo however, Ehwa ends up falling to the floor of the room. Ehwa lays on the ground as Angel lands nearby ready to continue their fight. Angel gives off a laugh at the fact that a member of the Great Yeon Family is finally down off her high location, and taunts Ehwa that it breaks her heart to see a Great Family member all messed up.
Ehwa gets up to re-establish herself as Angel prepares her trident. Angel admits that from the very beginning, she never liked Ehwa given that she acts all nice and polite despite being someone from one of the Ten Great Families. Angel throws her trident at Ehwa claiming that the very sight of her pisses her off. Bero and Hongjo are seen above continuously bouncing around the yellow cylinders as Ehwa manages to evade the trident throw. Ehwa is left wondering how she will go about this fight since she's already confirmed that her flames don't appear to affect Angel in any way. Ehwa flashes back to when she approached Quant to teach her how to control her flames, which Quant finds to be nonsense. He reminds Ehwa of how she's someone from the Great Yeon Family, and should be capable enough to not have to approach him to learn how to control her fire abilities.
Quant asks for Ehwa to stop joking around, and informs her that the Yeon Family is flame itself since they moment they were born. As a result, no one can teach them how to control their fire abilties. In the present, Ehwa is seen powering up her Yeon flame ability once more as she remembers back to when she was told that she was flame itself the moment she was born, and being irritated that that wasn't something she wanted to hear.
She next flashes back to a time at the Yeon household when Ehwa was just a little girl, and her flames are seen burning someone as said person begs Ehwa to come to its rescue because the flames are too hot. The higher-ups of the Great Yeon Family congraulate Ehwa for such an amazing skill in flame usage, and claim that she's a tresure of the family. Ehwa remains silent as the family members assure her that these abilities will no doubt grant her the title of Jahad Princess. Returning to the present once more, Ehwa tells herself that she doesn't know of such a flame as she sends a massive fire attack towards Angel. Angel is shown to be struggling to withstand against the flames Ehwa just sent towards her as she's forced to active her angelic abilities even further.
Her eyes begin to glow as she admits to Ehwa that those flames just now were quite hot. The halo floating above Angel's head gets larger as massive wings spread out to blow Ehwa's flames away. Ehwa notices that Angel seems to have dug into her power even further, which causes Angel to get excited since this fight wouldn't be fun if Ehwa turned out to be weak. Angel prepares her trident once more as Angel claims that it's been a long time since she last spread her wings out so far. A burst of pressure is felt hitting Ehwa as the psychotic looking Angel tells Ehwa that she's hoping the fire lady will have some fun with her.
Nearby, Buelsar continues to look at the yellow cylinders in the room, and sees Bero and Hongjo continuing to bounce around each of them. He remains confused as to which of the two Team Bero Regulars he should go after first. Buelsar points his jousting stick towards the bouncing Bero first since he believes going for her first would be most beneficial since he has the knowledge of knowing that she's worth as much as the original max, ten Dallars. But before he could send an attack at Bero, he hears a voice from behind asking why the pipe door is already open.
Behind Buelsar, the Bam, Moontari, and Hanool, group is seen having arrived at their location. Bam asks if there's perhaps people already inside the room, but as they step in, they see everything that's currently going on in the large yellow cylinder room. Given their unfinished duel at Train City, Buelsar realizes that Jue Viole Grace has already appeared in front of him. Bam in return notices right away that he's come across the Mad Dog.
Meanwhile, Yuri and Evan continue to watch the Second Round. The former of which asks if Bam will be ok since he suddenly ran into an enemy.
Buelsar points how he should have guessed how lucky he is considering that he randomly got the 10 Dallar max earlier, and now he gets to meet the boss of the enemy team so early. However, the attention of Buelsar and Bam's group is brought to a shining yellow light as they watch Angel shoot down many shinsu baems towards Ehwa. Bam calls out to Ehwa hoping shes ok while Buelsar remains confused by the current situation wondering why Angel is attacking so recklessly at the moment. Buelsar warns Bam that it seems lady Ehwa is in danger, and states that Angel always gets this reckless when she's excited like this. Giving off a grin, he informs Bam that he might not be able to find Ehwa's body, or her Dallars, once Angel finishes her off.
At this point, Moontari interrupts asking if Buelsar has been ignoring his existence this entire time. Buelsar turns in Moontari's direction, and is surprised to see a toad here as well, which irritates Moontari asking if the cocky bastard has a death wish. The Mad Dog replies back that death wouldn't be so bad for him, but only if Moontari is strong enough to grant him that wish. Moontari steps forward asking how arrogant Buelsar is wishing for death on himself, and asks Bam and Hanool to stand back while he kills the Mad Dog himself.
Charging forward, Moontari claims that he's going to teach Buelsar a lession, which the Mad Dog prepares himself for combat asking Moontari to give it his best shot. Moontari and Buelsar parry each other's weapons as the former goes in to use a freezing Bang on the Mad Dog. He manages to freeze Buelsar for a brief moment, and then aims for the finishing blow, but Buelsar manages to evade it, and realizes surprisingly that the blue toad is capable of using reverse flow control.
Buelsar backs off to re-establish himself as Bam steps forward stating to Moontari that he will provide support. However, Moontari orders Bam to stay back since the newbie needs to save his energy for the time being in order to be fully ready for the fight against Hoaqin.
Despite Bam objecting, Moontari reminds the boy that the latter hasn't gotten any rest over the past month due to the Rice Pot training. He asks for Bam to get some rest for now while he deals with the weaker enemies. In return, Bam's only job is to fight Hoaqin, and beat him. Moontari claims that it will be Bam who gets revenge for Sir Aka and his friends, which grabs Bam's attention.
Moontari gives off a grin asking Bam how the former is going to face Aka if he let the boy use some of his energy right away before facing Hoaqin. He reassures Bam not to worry since Moontari doesn't believe that either the fire-lady currently fighting, or himself, are weak enough to die here without the boy's help.
At this point, Buelsar gives off a laugh at Moontari's speech stating that it seems he and Angel are being completely looked down upon. Getting serious, the Mad Dog takes off his hood completely for the first time to show off his real face before Bam and company. A large amount of chains appear behind Buelsar, which the Mad Dog explains that they're a shinsu chain ability known as Hell in a Cell. Buelsar points out that Hell in a Cell is an ability that his master, Yamah, gave him, and that the chains will never vanish until he dies. Meaning that there's no way for Bam's group to get through the chains until they defeat Buelsar in combat. He orders Bam's group to come at him with everything they've got, and claims that he's not a typical underling they would come across any other day.
Moontari taunts Buelsar that his group will see if he's really better than just a mere underling as Buelsar replies right back for the blue Regular to charge forward. Giving off a laugh, as well as a nasty grin, Buelsar adds that the moment Moontari finds out how much stronger he is compared to a simple underling, it will be too late since he will already be dead. An excited Buelsar then jumps up, and aims to slam his jousting stick weapon down upon Bam's group. Blocking Buelsar's weapon like before, Moontari yells back at the Mad Dog to stop looking down on him. Moontari also yells that Buelsar has no idea how long he, and the others, have trained themselves to get on the Hell Train. All for the sake of making Sir Aka's wish come true. Calling Buelsar a bastard, Moontari and Buelsar begin to engage in close-combat.
Meanwhile, Ehwa and Angel's fight continues as the latter continues to drop shinsu beams down upon Ehwa. Angel taunts Ehwa asking why the Great Family lady hasn't attacked back, and orders Ehwa to show her what a Yeon noble has to offer.
The pipe floor under Ehwa begins to break, which Angel warns Ehwa that if the Yeon lady doesn't counter-attack soon, she will end up falling to her death. Ehwa thinks to herself how she's supposed to deal with this fight admitting that Angel is a strong one, and knows for a fact that it will be the end of her if she doesn't continue concentrating to block against her current shinsu beam barrage. Bero, who's still bouncing around the room, calls out to Ehwa asking why the Yeon member is still waiting it out, and orders her to attack back rather than always defending. Hongjo is seen still bouncing around as well as he and Bero both beg Ehwa to show Angel what she's made of, which the irritated Ehwa asks for the Team Bero members to be quiet if they're not actually going to help her.
Moments later, Angel stops her beam spam as she lands back on the pipe floor across from Ehwa. Angel asks what's with this fight claiming that Ehwa's efforts so far have been boring. She asks Ehwa what's the matter since the Yeon member hasn't used any flame abilities like she was earlier. Angel asks if the reason Ehwa hasn't gotten serious yet is because she lacks some form of motivation, which Ehwa asks what she means by that. Seeing Hongjo bouncing around above them, Rachel prepares her trident weapon, and asks if she should take down the arrogant turkey who interrupted her earlier first, which shocks Ehwa realizing what Angel is aiming for. She orders Hongjo to stop flying around and stand still as she throws her trident in the red bird's direction. Unable to defend against it due to being stuck in the bounce loop, Angel's trident goes straight through Hongjo's stomach, and out the back. Bero screams her teammates name being forced to watch her bird comrade get hit by a fatal blow as Hongjo falls to the floor near Angel's location. Ehwa is left stunned unable to believe what she just saw as Bero continues to scream in the background fearing the worst for Hongjo.
Angel walks up to Hongjo's body, and after retrieving her trident, confirms the red turkey's death. Putting her foot down on Hongjo's corpse, Angel gives off a grin looking down at him pointing out how sad this story is since the red bird was saying earlier that he would help the noble lady. She asks Hongjo's corpse if he now understands his mistake of siding with someone before thinking it out. She continues to taunt the corpse that many idiots in the Tower go about praising, and following around, the Ten Great Families. That such people are so pathetic to the point of making her sick. Angel claims that such dogs who accept the false power and authority of the Ten Great Families deserve to be killed by her.
Ehwa's hand is seen beginning to tremble in anger not liking how Angel went about so easily killing someone without a care in the world. She remembers back to Quant's words about how it's nonsense that he can't teach her how to control fire since the Great Yeon Family is born as flame itself. Flames begin to errupt around Ehwa as she orders Angel to move her foot of Hongjo's dead body, or else she will burn it.
Angel looks at the massive flame enveloping Ehwa, and gives off a laugh asking why the noble's fire abilities are suddenly acting up. She asks if the flames swarming around Ehwa means that she's mad at her, and admits that the noble looks cute getting emotional like this. Angel figures that this isn't something that nobles like Ehwa should get upset over, and asks if she's wrong thinking this way, but Ehwa asks once more for Angel to move away from Hongjo's corpse. Angel charges forward ready to strike Ehwa with her trident, but Ehwa evades it by dodging upward, which surprises Angel seeing that Ehwa with her flames going wild gives her the ability to fly. Through Buelsar's chains, Bam can spot Ehwa in the distance taking flight with her Yeon flames.
Bam remains confused as to what's going on knowing that something strange at Ehwa's location must have happened seeing her flames go wild. Angel takes to the air as well using her angelic wings as she prepares to take on Ehwa high above the yellow cylinder room. In the meantime, a crying Bero still bouncing around the area continues to call out to Hongjo unable to believe that her teammate is dead.
Calling Ehwa someone who must have gone crazy, Angel asks if this means that she no longer cares about the body of her dead red bird teammate. Upon closer look at Ehwa, Angel states things have gotten more interesting since the noble's eyes are looking better than before since Ehwa is now looking down at Angel as if the noble despises her. Angel yells out in excitement that those are indeed the kind of eyes that the disgusting Ten Great Families use to look down on people as she's seen activating her angelic abilities even further. However, to Angel's surprise, she watches as Ehwa's flames begin to swarm throughout the yellow cylinder room.
Angel begins to show fear unable to understand why Ehwa's flames are suddenly swarming throughout the yellow cylinder room. Ehwa sends the massive flame towards Angel, who barely manages to evade it. She continues to fly away from the flames as Angel begins to understand just how dangerous the flames of a Yeon offspring truly is. However, Angel begins to regret trying to fight Ehwa believing that she ended up messing with the wrong person. Angel calls out to Ehwa claiming that this overwhelming flame attack is amazing, and asks why the noble hasn't been using something like that since the start of their fight. She claims that Ehwa looks like someone covered in lava rage, and asks how the noble could become someone like this when she looked like such a soft girl at first.
A moment later, Angel gives off an even greater laugh than before stating that the way Ehwa's character acts is a piece of work. Angel gets excited claiming that she loves Ehwa's current look since it's now the true face of the nobles that look down on people as if they're nothing but garbage. A look that Angel claims to be very similar to her own mother.
Describing how her mother was to Ehwa, Angel states that she was dumb for falling in love with a Ranker from the Ten Great Families all because he said to her that he loved her. As a result, her mother would end up getting pregnant with Angel. A birth that was an illegitimate child of a Great Family member.
However, some time after, the father Ranker ended up abandoning her mother, which resulted in her mother seeing Angel as nothing more than a burden she was forced to take care of on her own. Angel remembers back to the day she came before her depressed mother stating that she's hungry, but her mother ordered Angel go feed herself since even her godawful dad abandoned his child. Continuing the story of her mother, Angel claims that the look her mother gave her that day was still etched in her brain. A look as if her mother was glaring at her child as if it was nothing but garbage on the streets.
In the present, Angel's angelic abilities begin to act up yelling that her mother looked at her as if she couldn't stand to look at the fact that Angel existed. As a result, she's someone who was not only made by her mother, but was thrown away just as easily. She then summons several Metalfish to help her take on Ehwa.
Angel asks if Ehwa knows how her mother's story could get any stupider. Ehwa continues to remain silent as Angel answers for her that after her father left, her mother would go about always wandering the streets trying to seduce other men from the Ten Great Families. Ehwa prepares to fire her flame abilities at Angel once more as the latter continues to yell out asking if the noble finds her situation funny. The biggest crime in this tragedy being that the one who truly needed love and support was the little girl that was always right next to the mother. An image of a chained Angel is seen stuck in complete darkness.
She asks Ehwa if the very sight of Angel pisses her off since the very sight of an illegitimate child must come off gross to her. Angel points out how she's someone who wanted to be acknowledged due to all her accomplishments, but in the end, was considered rubbish so filthy that her mother just wanted to get rid of her. She remembers back to the day that her mother called Angel by her true birth-name, Raguel, to inform her that Angel will be staying with a certain group of men starting today. The mother explains that they bought Raguel for a good price since according to them, they were able to see the talent hidden within Angel.
Raguel looks at her mother in shock as the latter congratulates Angel since she inherited such great talent as a child from the Ten Great Families. Angel's mother calls Raguel a blessed human since not just anyone can have the abilities that Angel has within her. The mother tells Raguel of how she tried her whole life to achieve something like that, and states to Angel that she should be grateful for what her mother has provided for her.
Back to the present, an enraged Angel calls her mother's blessing to be bullshit, and states that her mother doesn't actually know anything since this crazy angel Regular is apparently the human who was considered to be blessed. A moment later, Ehwa sends down her overwhelming flames upon Angel, who is unable to counter such powerful Yeon fire.
Feathers from Raguel's angelic wings are seen floating about as a defeated Angel falls to the floor of the yellow cylinder room. From afar, Bam could see Ehwa's massive Yeon flames exploding behind Buelsar's chains, and begins to worry that Ehwa's life could be in danger if she keeps going beyond her current flame limit. Unable to standby any further, Bam apologizes to Moontari, and charges forward to join the fight in order to get rid of the roadblock created by Buelsar. The close-combat fight between Moontari and Buelsar continues as the former and latter continue to parry one another's attacks with their respective gray pole and jousting stick. Moontari claims how Buelsar is an arrogant one for acting all high and mighty despite this being the Mad Dog's first time on the Hell Train. He calls out Buelsar for only thinking this way just because the Mad Dog just so happens to also be a member of FUG. During the fight, Moontari remembers back to how he was defeated by Aka in combat, and became a part of Team Aka.
Looking down on Moontari, Aka scolds him for fearlessly stepping onto the Hell Train, and challenging the giant, without thinking about the situation properly. He also points out that Moontari's mistake of choosing to do this despite not having some special power, or even being from one of the Ten Great Families. However, Aka admits that Moontari has proven himself to be a useful underling if he just trains himself even further. Returning to the present, the close-combat fight continues as Buelsar gives off a grin admitting that Moontari is someone that has a lot of energy.
At another time in the past, Moontari asks Aka why the latter has been staying in the Hell Train, which Aka answers that it's because he has things lingering here. Moontari asks what he means by that, which Aka answers that its something that could never be put right again. However, Aka adds that he's probably been staying on the Hell Train these days because he now has Moontari and his other underlings with him.
Back to the present, Moontari swings his gray pole towards Buelsar claiming that it's about time to free Sir Aka from the Hell Train. At that moment, Buelsar spots Bam running by them. The Mad Dog gives Moontari the bad news that being full of such energy isn't going to be enough to defeat him.
He then swings his jousting stick downward, and successfully cuts Moontari in half; instantly killing the blue-skinned Regular. Moontari's death catches Bam's attention as he watches the two halves of the former's corpse fall to the floor.
Buelsar then turns his attention to Bam, and asks why Jue Viole Grace has chosen to look away from him. He orders Viole to not look away since the two of them will have to fight now. Buelsar then looks back at Moontari's corpse and states how he can't believe that someone who was only good at screaming was classified as a D-rank Regular, and finds the result of the fight to be ridiculous.
Hanool is left shocked to see Moontari suddenly reduced to a corpse as Buelsar calls the blue-skinned Regular he just fought to be a piece of shit since there were many Regulars like Moontari that he fought against in the Mad Dog fighting rings. None of which were worth being food for him.
The mention of the Mad Dog fighting ring catches Bam's attention as he continues to stand ready for an upcoming fight against Buelsar. Their attention is then brought to the flames behind Buelsar's chains, which the Mad Dog states that it appears the fight at Ehwa and Angel's location seems to be coming to an end. Knowing that Angel has mental problems due to her past, Buelsar admits that Raguel made the mistake here since she was excited to attack Ehwa, but resulted in being the one that got burned anyway. Buelsar informs Bam that it appears the two of them are in the same situation now since he needs to check on Angel while Viole needs to check on Ehwa.
Buelsar figures that the two of them had best finish their fight quickly as he properly re-introduces himself to Viole as one of Yamah's three Mad Dogs, Buelsar Elliot. The Mad Dog walks towards Bam explaining that under Yamah's orders, he's been sent to the Hell Train to side with Hoaqin, and to test Viole to see if the boy is worthy enough to be the newest Slayer Candidate. Buelsar reminds Bam that Hoaqin is a powerful monster, and hopes that Viole will show him a similar power. He orders Bam to prove his worth that he deserves to hold FUG's Slayer Candidate status. In return, Bam actives his Thorn claiming that Buelsar will be sorry about this.
The chains throughout the room begin to break apart, which confuses Buelsar. He finds it unbelievable that Viole was able to break such powerful shinsu chains, and wonders if the Slayer Candidate has perhaps gotten stronger in the month leading up to the game. Meanwhile, Yuri and Evan watch over Bam as carefully as possible knowing that they're about to see the boy fight for the first time since the 1st Floor.
Buelsar holds up his jousting stick weapon ready for battle as he gives off a laugh asking what's with the power Bam is currently showing off. He concludes that there's no doubt Viole has gotten stronger in the past month, and asks if there's ever going to be a time that Viole will ever stop improving himself.
Buelsar asks what it was that happened to Jue Viole Grace during his one month Hell Train journey, but Bam remains silent, and slowly walks toward the Mad Dog with the Thorn fully activated. The Mad Dog remains confused by Bam's current actions, but Bam continues to slowly walk towards him.
Bam remembers back to his time in the Rice Pot the moment after he asked the Power to show Bam's true strength, which confuses the Power to the point of not knowing what the boy is talking about. The Power yells back that the strength it possesses is the power of an emperor, which is Bam's true nature. It says like before that Bam can make all his enemies kneel before him if he utilizes the Power's overwhelming strength. That the path Bam must take is to become the highest point of the Tower. However, Bam replies back that he's not sure about that since the Power he's looked at before him doesn't look all that strong. Bam informs the Power that it looks like someone who's afraid of being ruled by something as if it has a lot of fear in its heart, which grabs the Power's attention.
Returning to the present, Bam is now standing right in front of Buelsar, which confuses the Mad Dog even further as to what Viole is trying to do. Bam suddenly stares directly at Buelsar, who unexpectedly reacts to it by attempting to hit the boy with his jousting stick. Buelsar realizes he messed up deducing that he did a reflex being caught off-guard by Bam's stare. In return, Bam easily deflects the jousting stick, and puts his free hand out before Buelsar to launch a shinsu beam at the Mad Dog. Buelsar is unable to dodge it as he gets knocked back by the shinsu beam, and results in him now lying on the ground.
Bam thinks back once more to his Rice Pot conversation with the Power where it asks what Bam is talking about being afraid of being ruled by someone, and points out how the Power has no reason to be afraid due to being so strong. Bam explains that it's something he realized during his climb up the Tower. That those who try to step over others to continue climbing the Tower are actually people who run away from fear they cannot see. The answer leaves the Power silent as Bam continues his explanation telling the Power that it's a cowardly action to try to step over someone else.
Bam states that stepping over others is proof of one not being confident enough to just face an opponent by simply speaking to them wit hthe same viewpoint, and that because of that, all the strength in the world that the Power could provide for him doesn't matter. Bam claims to the Power that he doesn't wish to become such a person who relies on cowardly methods. He also tells the power that he will continue to survive through pain and war, but will do it while still being at the same level as everyone else. Seeing the massive golden ball of shinsu behind the Power that has taken hold of it, Bam states that he will accomplish all this by using that strength instead.
Back to the present, Buelsar gets up laughing as the shinsu around his jousting stick weapon begins to act up. He praises Jue Viole Grace for a job well done claiming that the Slayer Candidate's last attack was incredible. Buelsar's eyes begin to glow red as the Mad Dog states how unbelivable it is to see that Viole has managed to control the uncontrollable Thorn's power. A power that the Slayer Candidate was going wild with at Train City, and yet Viole is now able to control it after just one month of training on the Hell Train.
Buelsar asks how Viole is able to keep the Thorn under control given what was witnessed at Train City when the unstable Viole looked like madness had exploded. Black shinsu begins to swarm around the excited Buelsar, who claims that this duel is great.
Buelsar figures that Viole is indeed someone who could perhaps bring out the Buelsar's power since it's always been a struggle for him as one of Yamah's fighting Mad Dogs. The struggle being that as long as there's a stronger enemy, the Mad Dog will continue to grow in strength as well. Buelsar then charges toward Bam claiming that it's about time for him and Jue Viole Grace to end this.
Buelsar swings his jousting stick down at Bam ordering Viole to show the Mad Dog what he's got since Buelsar's hoping that it will make him fight crazier than ever before. A golden light is seen swarming around Bam as he prepares to counter the Mad Dog's attack. In return, Buelsar is confused as to what the power is that Viole is about to use against him.
Returning to Ehwa's location in the yellow cylinder room, Angel is seeing lying on the floor defeated after being burned up by Ehwa's overwhelming flames. Angel gives off a weak laugh looking up at Ehwa still enveloped by her Yeon flames, and asks why the noble still isn't satisfied despite having already burned up everything else around her.
Raguel claims that Ehwa really is one of a kind as she spots Ehwa staring down at her ready to finish Angel off with another flame attack. She adds that Ehwa should keep looking at her with those eyes of a Great Family noble as someone who despises Angel to the point of looking down on her. Raguel figures that it's better than being looked at under disgusting pretense since being a noble that looks down on people is Ehwa's true face.
Before Ehwa could finish off Angel however, she's suddenly grabbed by Bero, who asks for the Great Yeon Family member to stop. Bero scolds Ehwa for her actions asking if Ehwa plans to continue using her flames until everyone else in the room is dead. She orders Ehwa to come back to her senses, which finally appears to have begun to break through to the Yeon member.
Bero grabs hold of Ehwa stating that the Great Yeon Family member is thin, pretty, has nice hair, and has incredible flame powers worthy to be seen as someone from said Great Family. However, Bero informs Ehwa that she's not jealous of that since the Yeon member will have to eat less to stay slim, which will also result in many men trying to bother her because of her beauty. Bero also states that because of how strong Ehwa is, she also has a lot of things she will be responsible for. With all that said, Bero asks for Ehwa to stop being so ridiculous, and asks how Ehwa can call herself a member of the Ten Great Families if she can't even control herself.
Ehwa thinks back to a time when she was a young girl before someone who heard that the former is afraid of using her fire skills. The person states that Ehwa is a strong kid, which Ehwa finds confusing believing that she's a coward for not wanting to use her flames. However, the person states that it's a given Ehwa will be more afraid of her flames as the abilities continue to grow stronger. The person warns Ehwa that she should remain alert concerning her fire powres so something bad doesn't happen.
The person warns Ehwa that should she ever neglect how to go about using her strong fire powers, it will result in others being hurt, and perhaps cause them to bleed out in pain. Said person warns Ehwa to remain afraid of her fire powers. Only then will Ehwa find road to become a strong person. In the present, Ehwa realizes that the words she was remembering was from her own mother. The flames surrounding Ehwa finally begin to subside, but as a result, her and Bero begin falling towards the floor of the yellow cylinder room since neither of them can fly now.
Ehwa finally realizes that she's back to her senses during the fall while Bero screams out if they're raelly oging to die from something like this. However, they're both suddenly caught by Bam, who zooms over to their location using his shinsu platform. Bam breathes a sigh of relief managing to reach Ehwa and Bero in time. He asks Ehwa if she's ok, which Ehwa answers that she's fine. Meanwhile, Bero complains how it appears that Ehwa also seems to have big boobs, which she admits this time around that she's jealous.
Following the battle in the pipe maze's yellow cylinder room, Bam's group is considered the winner. Moontari is declared deceased while Bam's Dallar total is now seven Dallars, and Hanool is four Dallars, for a total of 11 Dallars. Yuri and Evan, who had been watching Bam's battle against Buelsar, are unable to believe what they just saw; confused as to what the power was that they saw the boy use against the Mad Dog. Yuri yells out how none of this makes any sense, and asks what had happened to Bam.
Still unable to make sense of it, Yuri asks if Evan was paying attention as well seeing how strong Bam has gotten since seeing the weak boy back on the 1st Floor. She asks if it's possible for such a weak person to become strong, which causes Evan to think it over.
Evan notes how the people of FUG must have noticed Bam's potential since they didn't just hand him the Slayer Candidate status for no reason. He also reminds Yuri that many know of Bam's Tower status as an Irregular who forced his way through the gate.
Seeing the Thorn floating above Bam's shoulder, Evan also mentions how the biggest reason for the boy's sudden great strength seems to be because of said object. Evan looks closer at Bam's Thorn wondering if it's perhaps some device that amplifies the boy's power, but deduces that the thing doesn't feel like something that would be so simple. The Ranker guide thinks back to the moment he witnessed Bam use some sort of power to counter Buelsar's jousting stick, and is left wondering what said golden-colored power was that he witnessed the boy use at that moment. Meanwhile, Train Conductor Pedro thinks over the results of the battle that went down in the yellow cylinder room. He concludes that Buelsar Elliot of the Mad Dogs was obviously not going to be strong enough to defeat Viole, and figures that this isn't going to be good news to send back to Bayroad Yamah.
Pedro remembers how a promise was made to Yamah that his faction would receive a Slayer Candidate if a Mad Dog came out a winner, but in the end, failing to keep that promise doesn't matter. Pedro is calm for the moment, because everything here on the Hell Train is still going as planned.
Above the Second Round arena, Poro continues to float above the pipe maze thinking over the current situation. Poro is left surprised to see that Hoaqin's faction has already lost two of its stronger teammates, but figures that there's still nothing to worry about since the end result is still going to be the same. He thinks over how the winner of the Dallar Show has already been set from the very beginning due to the fact that the way the Dallars were distributed was a set amount that could only move the match in a certain way.
Poro continues to think the current situation over that with the way Viole's faction was placed to start in the pipe maze, Viole's group and Khun's Sweetfish group were forced to start at the opposite ends of one another within the maze. Afterwards, Hoaqin's groups were set up to start in such a way to make sure that no matter what, Khun's Sweetfish group will result in soon being surrounded by opposing groups from Hoaqin's faction.
Meanwhile, the other teams were placed in such a way to only run into the group with Hoaqin in it so that no matter what, Viole's allies will get eaten by the opposing Slayer Candidate. The kicker that makes this even more difficult is that there will be no way for Viole to save any of them since the Slayer Candidate started off in the farthest away place to start in the maze. Back to Pedro, the Train Conductor continues to think over how everything will go as planned due to the Regulars being trapped within the rules of his game. He also looks at Yuri, and figures that her life will also soon be his since Bam's loss is all but assured now.
Returning to Bam's location within the pipe maze, Hanool is seen running up to Bam to rejoin him, Ehwa, and Bero. Hanool asks if Ehwa will be ok after seeing her going wild with the Yeon flames, which causes Bam to ask Ehwa about this as well. Ehwa, who's still being held in Bam's arms, quickly pushes him away claiming that she's fine, and can hold up on her own now. Embarrassed, Ehwa holds her breasts asking what Bam was trying to do while her guard was down, and claims that this is sexual harassment, which confuses Hanool and Bam. However, Bam mentions that the fight here appears to now be over.
The group realizes that the fight just now resulted in the deaths of Moontari and Hongjo, which brings down Bam's spirits feeling like he should have done more to stop it before it reached that point. Bam apologizes to Bero that she was dragged into a fight concerning his faction, which a tearful Bero, who's still grieving for Hongjo, replies that there's no need for him to apologize. Bero reassures Bam that this fight was also out of revenge, which they succeeded in grabbing. Meanwhile, the defeated Buelsar lies on the floor laughing; claiming that Jue Viole Grace's last attack was incredible.
Bam's attention turns to Buelsar as the Mad Dog states that the attack just now was such amazing power, and asks how Bam did it not understanding how the attack was done one bit. However, Buelsar also adds that it's a pity Bam's potential might go to waste since his current opponent is too strong. The Mad Dog warns Bam that should Hoaqin become a Complete One again, there will be no way of stopping him. As a reward for defeating him, Buelsar states that he will tell him what Hoaqin's true form is, which causes Bam to listen closely.
Switching to another location in the pipe maze is the Boro, Sachi, and Aka, group coming across a fan in the floor. Boro begins to sweat asking what he's looking at, and mentions how the fan blades look incredibly sharp. He also adds how the exit pipe seems to be beyond the fan, but warns Sachi and Aka that one mistake here could result in them getting cut to shreds.
Boro suggests the option to go around and search for another pipe, but it's at this point that the three of them hear a laugh from a pipe opening high above them. The voice claims that he wasn't expecting the first people he'd come across in the pipe maze to be these old faces, and asks if this is some sort of fate. Boro instantly recognizes the voice that's talking to them as his group turns aorund, and sees the Hoaqin, Anna, and Daniel, group high above them.
Hoaqin asks how lucky he must be to see the prey he let get away all gathered in one place, and asks if the reason Boro's group hasn't moved any further yet is because they don't want to get cut up by the fan blades blocking the exit. The Slayer Candidate taunts the group that the fan doesn't look all that scary, and points out how it seems Boro and company now don't have a place to run. Hoaqin threatens Boro, Sachi, and Aka, by claiming that he's now going to eat them, and finally get his revenge for letting them escape hundreds of years ago.
Sachi counters back stating that it's them who are the ones who deserve to take revenge for the incident back then. He yells at Hoaqin that thy have no intention of running away, and orders the Slayer Candidate to come down so that they can put an end to all this. However, Hoaqin replies that the first person he needs to take care of is Jue Viole Grace. In return, Hoaqin states that the person they will actually be fighting is the girl next to him, Anna, which confuses Boro and company.
At another pipe maze location is the Wangnan and Vicente group making their way over a gap on a floating water bubble. The scared Wangnan asks if Vicente really believes that the thing they're standing on isn't going to pop, which causes Vicente to call him a coward since he knows for a fact it's never going to pop. Vicente then brings up how he's currently worried about Anna since her sister is such a nice girl who listens to every word of her brothers.
As a result, Vicente knows that Anna will do whatever Hoaqin tells her. Wangnan asks if the girl Vicente is talking about was the copy standing alongside Hoaqin, which Vicente answers that it was, but also reminds Wangnan that they're not copies, but siblings. He states once more that the five siblings were never copies, but have been individual people since the very beginning. Wangnan takes this chance to ask why Vicente decided to become one with Hoaqin since he doesn't appear to have a close relationship with said crazy sibling, which Vicente answers that he did it to become stronger.
Vicente brings up how the man who always stood above the five white-haired siblings was their father. To the five siblings, their father was like a glittering sword shining a light that never faded. However, the feeling of such a glittering sword was too much for his five children, who felt that their father was a wall that could never be overcome. In the end, the five siblings decided to do their best to become stronger than their father, and the result was the use of a forbidden technique to become one person.
Wangnan asks what Vicente means by forbidden technique, which Vicente answers that the technique is known as the Spell of Soul-eating. The basics of the spell is that it's meant for many to become one by eating each other's souls. He reveals to Wangnan that it was Hoaqin who came across the spell, which had been left behind by an ancient devil. The spell was then studied amongst the five siblings, and the result was the success of the five siblings being able to become one person. Vicente informs Wangnan that this is how the five siblings have lived for countless years inside just one body.
The story shocks Wangnan since he's not able to understand how Vicente and his siblings are still Regulars despite supposedly living for countless years. Wangnan asks how Vicente has been able to live for so long with his siblings as one person, which catches Vicente's attention seeing that it's a given that Wangnan wouldn't know of the siblings other identity. Vicente explains that the reason they've been able to live so long is because they're not ordinary Regulars, which confuses Wangnan even further.
Vicente continues to explain to Wangnan that the five siblings may look weaker now because they're currently separated. However, when the five siblings were one, there were people within FUG who called the combined form of said siblings one of the top members within the organization. Hearing that they were a top member within FUG shocks Wangnan, which Vicente answers that to be the case. He reveals to Wangnan that as one of FUG's top members, the combined form of the five siblings was known as the Slayer Candidate, White.
The revelation stuns Wangnan as Vicente continues by claiming that as White, they were considered a FUG Slayer, as well as FUG's God. Suddenly, their attention is brought to a loud sound in the distance. The battle between Hoaqin's group and Boro's group had begun where Daniel is seen trying to hit his former teammates with his Living Creature shinsu. Wangnan asks what just happened as the voice from a third unknown person in Wangnan's group is heard speaking through the White Heavenly Mirror warning Wangnan and Vicente that time for chat is over. They both figure that it's about time for them to get going as Vicente speeds up the bubble their floating on towards the location of the battle as Wangnan struggles to hold on.
Returning to the location of Boro's and Hoaqin's group, Hoaqin asks what Daniel is doing since he's made it clear that Anna will take care of this fight on her own. Daniel thinks over an excuse, and states that he's just irritated at the moment seeing his former teammates from hundreds of years ago working together as if they've always been so close. He watches as Aka shields Boro and Sachi from being hit by the Living Creature shinsu.
A moment after, Anna drops down to the location of Boro's group, and asks for the three Regulars to play with her. Hoaqin gives off a laugh mentioning how fun this will be watching Anna defeat Boro and company.
Back to Bam's location, he and his companions are left shocked from hearing Buelsar's revelation that Hoaqin is a FUG Slayer. Buelsar states once more that this is indeed the case, and that Hoaqin's title when he was at full strength combined with his other siblings was known as White. Buelsar points out that while Hoaqin is a much weaker Regular now after his siblings had split apart from him aboard the Hell Train, it still doesn't change the fact that he can become a FUG Slayer again once he reunites with his siblings. The Mad Dog warns Jue Viole Grace that he needs to find Hoaqin before he becomes one again, because once the FUG Slayer God descends, everything will be over for Viole and his compansions.
Bam is left shocked by the White revelation, and asks how a FUG Slayer could be here since he heard the information during his time within the organization that the current FUG Slayers are all asleep. Ehwa agrees finding such a revelation to be nonsense, and asks why a bigwig person within FUG would be interested in a Hell Train that's for low D-rank Regulars. However, Buelsar is unable to answer apart from knowing that Hoaqin is currently not the FUG Slayer, White, at the moment, which confuses Bam.
Buelsar explains how within FUG, White was known as the 10th out of the 11 FUG Slayers, and that White was notorious for playing around with human life. The Mad Dog mentions how it appears that White caused a chaotic incident a long time ago that brought a lot of lives to their death. As a result, a Jahad Princess ended up in a duel against White, but the FUG Slayer was defeated, which resulted in White losing his powers. Due to White's loss of power, he ended up being driven out of his status as a FUG Slayer.
Continuing the story, Buelsar mentions how in order to regain his strength, White split up his power, and snuck off to a specific location in order to slowly regain strength in order to one day become a FUG Slayer again. Sure enough, that location was the D-rank area's Hell Train. However, to the confusion of many, no one understood why White had suddenly gotten himself trapped aboard the express (Roen's death being what sealed him). As a result of White getting stuck on the Hell Train, he was declared by FUG to have gone missing, and the case regarding said FUG Slayer was established to be settled. Buelsar mentions how after FUG had considered the White case settled, that was pretty much the end of it. However, FUG was one day greeted by a Regular calling himself Daniel, and informs the organization that White is still aboard the Hell Train. Daniel had come with a message to inform FUG that White wishes to finally resurrect within the Hell Train, and that everything from the very beginning is now set for said resurrection. Buelsar then reveals how this very Dallar Show game is part of the big plan to help resurrect White, which leaves Bam stunned.
Bam turns around to head off to help the rest of his friends knowing that they've been stuck in a game designed to resurrect White. Before he could leave, Buelsar mentions that he has one more thing to tell Viole. Bam turns around to hear, which Buelsar warns Viole that Khun's Sweetfish group will currently be in danger at the moment since that's how the game has been carried out so far along the path that had been set up. Buelsar gives off a grin claiming that if it was up to his opinion, he probably would have gone for the Sweetfish group next after the first part of the plan was to stall Bam. Overall, the Mad Dog warns Viole that he had better hurry, but states that the Slayer Candidate will probably not make it in time since the game placed him far away from Khun's Sweetfish group.
At the location of Khun's group still escorting the Sweetfish, they're spotted in the distance by the Rachel and Yura group. Yura asks if they're extremely lucky for being able to find the main objective so quickly, or if the game host had set up the maze on purpose to help Hoaqin's faction find the Sweetfish. Rachel thinks the situation over, but concludes that their Dallar amount is too low to take on the Sweetfish team, which has 125 Dallars. The stats of Rachel's group is shown where Rachel has one Dallar, and Yura has nine Dallars, for a total of ten Dallars. Since Khun's Sweetfish group has a huge advantage in Dallars, Rachel deduces that despite having the chance to ambush them, they will have no chance of catching up once the Sweetfish group locks a pipe door using a high amount of their 125 Dallars.
Clenching her fist in frustration, Rachel concludes that their only option is to wait it out, or else they could quickly lose the game if they rush in too early. Rachel asks Yura where the location of Cassano is, which the idol answers that the Devil of the Right Arm appears to be nearby. Looking at her Emile terminal, Yura mentions how the chatting bot is incredible since it's already apprehended almost the entire structure of the pipe maze. Seeing Cassano's location on the Emile terminal's pipe map, Yura informs Rachel that it appears it won't take much longer for him to get to their location.
Rachel asks if Cassano will be able to get to the exit side of Khun's Sweetfish group within the next ten minutes, which Yura answers that he probably can since Cassano just sent word of another route he's taking. With that information, Rachel gives the order that they will attack the Khun's Sweetfish group once Cassano has blocked off their path sine that will be the perfect opportunity for them to move in. Watching Khun's Sweetfish group continuing to move, Rachel thinks to herself that she will be sure to teach said arrogant man that there are times where he can be defeated as well.
Switching to the location of Boro's group, he, Sachi, and Aka, look upon a red jar with eyeballs now floating above the white-haired sibling, Anna. Boro asks what he's looking at, which Anna explains that it's a jar which holds a substance known as soul melting juice. She informs Boro's group that soon enough, the three of them will also be turned into delicious juice. Hearing what the jar does shocks Boro and company as they watch a red-colored substance pour from it. The order is given to run as Boro, Sachi, and Aka, turn around to escape from the red substance before it hits them.
Meanwhile, Hoaqin watches the start of the fight against Boro's group, which he finds to be interesting seeing that his sibling, Anna, is still as cute as she ever was. Daniel asks what he means by that, which Hoaqin explains that the juice from Anna's eyeball pot is a magic spell that melts people's souls. Hoaqin points out how Anna was always pretty weak amongst the five siblings, so she couldn't learn swordsmanship very well. As a way to make up for that, Anna delved into learning this kind of sorcery. Hoaqin admits that it's not a very elegant method he, himself, would prefer to fight with, but considering it's Boro's group, this might actually be the best way to go up against them.
Hoaqin then turns his attention to Daniel, and asks if the latter is really ok with this seeing his old friends dying. Daniel answers that he's already made it loud-and-clear that they don't matter to him to the point of not wanting to see them anymore. Meanwhile, they watch as Boro and company continue to run away from the soul melting liquid.
Boro orders Aka to do something about this seeing as how the latter was the defender of their team. However, Aka yells back at him to shut up since his Tower Position can block physical things like spears and swords, but isn't designed to stop a mass of liquid approaching them. Sachi next calls them out for both being pathetic, and asks if they've been doing nothing to improve themselves for the past hundreds of years. At this point, Sachi finally activates his weapon. Using the Thornbush Path technique, Sachi throws his weapon at the ground as a line of shinsu zig zags towards Anna through the red soul-melting liquid.
Spikes shoot off from Sachi's Thornbush technique as Boro is shocked to see that Sachi has opened up a path in the liquid for them to reach Anna. The Thornbush Path reaches Anna, and begins to rope around her in an attempt to immobilize the girl. Sachi then charges forward through the open path he created using his Thornbush Path technique as he yells out to Hoaqin that ever since the Roen incident, he's always been training himself. Appearing before Anna, Sachi adds that there has never been a night since then where he would fall asleep not thinking about regret and rage over what happened back then.
Sachi thinks back to the past Hell Train run when his group became Hoaqin's underlings. He admits that it wasn't Daniel who first noticed that something had changed about Roen since the underling murder case, but was him. Sachi thinks how it wasn't that difficult to notice right away that the way Roen acted from then on was completely different. That the girl who first seemed so bright had suddenly become quiet and lost to the point of looking like someone who was spaced out.
Continuing to think about Roen, Sachi figures that men are slow at catching onto things, which is most likely why the underling murder was able to be kept secret between just her and Daniel for so long. Despite soon finding out the secret for himself however, Sachi remembers how he couldn't approach Roen about it, and wonders why he couldn't. Sachi answers it himself that it was most likely because the sight of the changed Roen was unfamiliar to him, and couldn't understand it like trying to look into a dark cave when it was still bright as day out. He also thinks about how in the end, the only one who truly protected Roen while she was cornered by Hoaqin's trap was Daniel.
Soon after, Sachi remembers how it one day came to light that everyone knew Roen was the murderer of Hoaqin's underling. The result was putting everyone from her original team in danger, and Sachi remembers how back then, they came to resent Roen for the danger she put them in. Despite that, he still remembers when a tearful Roen apologized, and asked for her original teammates to be happy by forgetting everything that happened here on the Hell Train.
Sachi thinks over how in the end, it felt like they, her original teammates, were the ones who killed Roen. Continuing the flashback, Sachi remembers how they soon discovered a spell that would allow for them to seal Hoaqin on the Hell Train, but in order to do it, someone needed to be sacrificed. He remembers how they all thought that the obvious choice to do this was the one who put them in danger, Roen. Returning to the present, despite Roen doing it, and wishing them to live happy from then on out, Sachi yells out asking how they're supposed to forget something like this, and be happy about it.
Sachi swings his weapon at Anna, but sees that it got blocked by the counter of a large bunny now standing before him. Sachi looks in confusion at what blocked his attack as he sees the pink rabbit toy that Anna has been holding is now the size of a humanoid, wielding a sword, and stands ready to protect Anna.
Sachi realizes that the doll Anna was holding wasn't just an ordinary toy as Anna asks for him to play with her a bit more. While Sachi duels Anna, Boro and Aka continue to run away from the red soul-melting liquid. Boro calls out to Sachi hating the guy since his Thornbush Path technique only allowed for himself to get out of this.
However, Aka asks for Boro to forget that for now since they can still stall for time until Sachi is able to defeat Anna. The two of them spot a raised platform nearby, which the two decide to climb up in an attempt to get away from the soul-melting liquid. Boro and Aka watch the red liquid move passed their platform as they wonder if they're safe now, but are suddenly greeted by Anna's pot with many eyes again, which pours the soul-melting liquid down onto the platform they're on.
Boro realizes they're all but screwed at this point, but Aka puts his massive body over Boro to shield him as the red liquid falls upon Aka's back. Fearing for Aka's safety, Boro asks why Aka is choosing to do this since he will no doubt get melted down by the liquid, but Aka orders him again to shut up. Aka yells at Boro that he's doing this, because he never wants to experience the pain again of living on while the death of someone close weighs down on his heart.
The sight of Aka protecting Boro greatly amuses Hoaqin, who gives off a huge laugh taunting Aka if he's actually choosing to die for the sake of a comrade. He asks if Daniel is seeing this since he finds it hilarious that they're protecting one another despite the fact that they're all going to die in the end anyway. However, Daniel remains silent as he pulls out his stick to crunch on. Hoaqin asks why Daniel doesn't consider this funny, but it's at this point that the Wangnan and Vicente group are seen sneaking up on their location.
Despite slowly sneaking up on them, Hoaqin calls out to Vicente claiming that he could feel his presence behind him. Daniel turns around surprised by Hoaqin's claim as Wangnan is left shocked as well realizing that Hoaqin was able to find out they were behind him. Vicente once more opens the book he always carries around to pull out his sword as he claims that he's here to put an end to this since whoever wins this fight will be the sibling who vanishes. In return, Hoaqin gives off a grin, and asks if this means that it's about time for him to become a god.
Hoaqin charges at Vicente claiming that it will be the latter who will vanish as Vicente readies his sword to counter. Vicente and Hoaqin engage in close combat as the latter states that the former knows nothing. He asks Vicente if the former looks like the same weakling he used to be before they became one body as Vicente starts to get pushed back. Hoaqin reminds Vicente that they were just ordinary Regulars from one of the Ten Great Families before they all agreed to become one body.
The result of them combining was climbing up the Tower, and reaching the point of becoming a Ranker as that one body. A Ranker that stood above others as one of FUG's Gods.
Hoaqin continues to push Vicente back as he claims that everything they achieved was what he alone accomplished. He informs Vicente that the FUG Slayer name known as White was his, and alone, and not of his four siblings. Hoaqin manages to knock Vicente back as a shocked Wangnan begins to fear for the worst seeing the Hoaqin bastard is still so damn strong.
Switching over to Khun's Sweetfish group, Danhwa looks around the area, and mentions how the pipe they're currently going through is beautiful to the point that he's forgetting how they're currently in the middle of a battle. However, he also points out how strange it is that they haven't encountered any enemies yet. He asks Hwaryun if they've just been lucky, but the guide answers that while it could be nice if they reached the core to finish the Second Round without any trouble, their luck might soon run out.
Danhwa asks what Hwaryun means by that, which the guide also answers that what she's speaking of is probability. Khun explains to Danhwa that what Hwaryun is referring to is that while their Sweetfish group continues to walk through the pipes, it's extremely likely that other groups throughout the pipe maze have run into one another, and are battling it out in order to obtain more Dallars.
As a result, it's much more likely that they will encounter an enemy group later on compared to the earlier portions of the Second Round, because by that time, the enemy will have enough Dallars to face their 125 Dallar group. Khun also warns Danhwa that once an enemy team has enough Dallars to face this Sweetfish group, it will put them at a disadvantage since they not only have to fight the enemy, but protect the Sweetfish from getting killed, which Danhwa admits that he's finally beginning to understand.
Continuing the explanation, Khun also points out that the other groups amongst Bam's faction can mostly do what they want compared to their Sweetfish group having to play defensively. As a result, the best option the Sweetfish group has for now is to just run away whenever they can. Khun also points out that the worst case scenario would be to come across a team that has more than 125 Dallars. He points out how the most likely case of that happening for the enemy team would be if Hoaqin manages to gather his other copies. Khun explains how its a good thing at the moment that Hoaqin's more interested in finding his copies rather than chasing the Sweetfish group to win the game.
However, it could instantly turn into a problem if Hoaqin succeeds in becoming a Complete One again since it will almost definitely result in the group Hoaqin's with obtaining more Dallars than them to face off against the Sweetfish group. Khun thinks over once more the thought of Hoaqin becoming one again, and hopes to avoid such a case ever happening.
Returning to Wangnan's location, he continues to watch Vicente square off against Hoaqin, but the latter has proven himself to be too much for Vicente so far. Wangnan begins to sweat at the sight of Hoaqin being this powerful despite the weak solo state he's currently in, and is left wondering how strong of a monster Hoaqin will become if he succeeds in becoming one with his siblings again. He concludes that no matter what, he needs to make sure that such a case doesn't happen. Looking at the White Heavenly Mirror, Wangnan questions if he really will be able to deal with this guy. Meanwhile, Hoaqin calls out to Vicente pointing out that the latter sibling is still a good sword user when it comes to defense.
Hoaqin points out how Vicente was always someone who focused more on defense than going on the attack, and as a result, Vicente made himself a strong sword that's never able to come out the winner. However, Vicente agrees with Hoaqin's comment stating that his sword is indeed a different variety compared to Hoaqin's hostile sword. Vicente adds that his defensive style is the path he chose to survive the Tower. Something that Hoaqin never had to worry about since back then, he was considered a genius.
Flashing back to the past, Hoaqin and Vicente are seen having a practice duel within an arena-like structure of complete gray. As they clash swords, Hoaqin orders Vicente to stop defending, and go on the attack so that they can have a real fight.
At this point, the referee watching them informs the two that their sparring match is now over, which shocks the both of them hearing that it's already done with. The referee states that todays match has ended in a tie, and that the next match will be held in three days, which leaves Hoain annoyed.
Back to the present, Hoaqin complains how because of Vicente's method to only fight defensively, he was the only one Hoaqin couldn't defeat amongst the kids their age. He continues to complain how Vicente did nothing but defend, and points out how sick it was to him of how different he and Vicente were. Vicente agrees with the complaints, but also points out that he and Hoaqin are also similar in some ways. As a result of these similarities, they were able to become one.
Returning to a later time in the flashback, Hoaqin is seen standing amongst many other white-haired siblings in a gray conference room. One of the siblings asks if they heard Hoaqin correctly, which Hoaqin answers that they heard properly. Hoaqin points out that he greatly respects his father, but also sees said father as someone that he will never be able to surpass.
As a result, Hoaqin states once more that his overall goal is to overcome father, and become the new Great Family leader. Continuing the story, Vicente admits that Hoaqin's speech that day was the first time he actually came to like Hoaqin, because unlike the other white-haired kids of the Great Family, none of them had the ambition to break the taboo of finally surpassing their father.
Vicente points out how the Ten Great Family leaders refused the very nature of allowing a son to surpass the father, or even for the son of the next generation to pass the old generation. He explains that because he respected father so much, he was someone who wished to break such a distorted honor with his own hands. However, Vicente also states that his biggest mistake ended up being when he chose to side with Hoaqin since the result afterwards was Hoaqin committing many sins.
Vicente scolds Hoaqin that he knows the latter had eaten so many souls over the years in order to extort their power for his own, but as a result of Hoaqin's greed, he one day overdid it trying to use a great magic, which has resulted in them getting stuck on this Hell Train. Hoaqin counters the argument stating to Vicente that it was all for the sake of getting stronger. However, Vicente replies back that one can't give up on everything else just for the sake of gaining strength.
Nearby, Sachi is seen engaging in close-combat with Anna's pink rabbit toy, which increased its size to protect her. Seeing the pink rabbit able to use a sword surprises Sachi, but he deduces that the swordsmanship is still a lot weaker compared to Hoaqin. He then backs away from the pink rabbit to re-establish himself, and calls out to Anna to point out how despite being one of Hoaqin's copies, her strength appears to be too weak compared to the original.
Anna remains silent towards Sachi's comment, who continues to speak stating that while Anna is indeed a skilled Regular, it's nowhere close to Hoaqin, who has overwhelming power. Sachi points out how it feels like rather than fighting a copy of Hoaqin, it actually feels like he's up against a completely different person. He asks Anna why this is as if she's playing some sort of game on him, and decides to get even more serious claiming that this is no joke going up against him, one of the top three D-rank Regulars. His thornbush-like shinsu powers begin to swarm all around Sachi as he makes the claim to Anna that in order to become strong he trained himself up to the point of having to sell a piece of his very soul away.
With his covered eye now fully active, the thornbush-like shinsu begins to gather in Sachi's weapon as he sends the Creeper Whip technique towards Anna's pick rabbit. The Creeper Whip circles around the pink rabbit in an attempt to immobilize the toy as Sachi swings his weapon down towards the floor. Sachi's Creeper Whip begins to squeeze in on the pick rabbit, which Sachi gives the order to crack down and crumble to pieces. He informs Anna that this is a type of bondage that will not release until the target dies as the pink rabbit explodes from the pressure of being squeezed too hard by Sachi's Creeper Whip. Anna remains shocked by the sight of her pink rabbit being destroyed, which Sachi explains that what he's using is a spell known as Silence of Rose, which took him hundreds of years to master. The thornbush shinsu continues to swarm around Sachi, who orders Anna to finally start taking this seriously.
Meanwhile, Aka begins to yell out in pain due to the soul-melting liquid from Anna's red pot being poured down onto his back as he continues to shield Boro from said liquid. Boro orders Aka to move asking why he's doing this, and points out how he knows for a fact that Aka hates him for believing that Boro ran away after Roen died. He asks once more why Aka is protecting him, but Aka claims that none of that matters since he knew Boro has always been a scumbag from the very beginning due to the way he acted in their team.
Aka points out that despite knowing that Boro is a scumbag, Boro has still chosen to return to the Hell Train due to what happened to Roen despite constantly pretending to have nothing to do with it. He calls out Boro as being just like them as someone who couldn't leave the Hell Train after what happened, and that he knew from the very beginning that Boro is also the kind of guy who feels regret. As a result, Aka reveals that this was why he's been even more pissed off at Boro over the years. Boro remains unable to say anything, but it's at this point that the two of them are rescued by a lighthouse field, which is moved to the spot of Aka's back to shield him from getting hit any further from Anna's soul-melting pot liquid.
Boro and Aka turn their attention to their rescuers, and see the newly arrived group being the two remaining Regulars of Team Aka. Aka asks how they managed to get here, which one of them answers that they suddenly came across the red liquid falling to their location. Aka's teammates point him and Boro in the direction of the fan, and see that Anna's soul-melting liquid had broke the blades, and fell through the hole underneath it to clear the exit tunnel beyond it. Raising the lighthouse field away from Aka and Boro to continue shielding them from the soul-melting liquid, Aka's teammates ask that they use this chance to destroy the pot dropping the substance.
Back to Hoaqin's location, he begins to laugh being unable to understand Vicente's statement of not being able to give up everything to become stronger. Hoaqin reminds Vicente of how the latter was also someone who seeked out strength in order to kill father, and as a result, Vicente took part in the forbidden technique to combine into one person with four other siblings. He also calls out Vicente for being just like him as someone who betrayed their Great Family, and killed thousands of people in order to become a FUG Slayer. In the end, just like Hoaqin, Vicente failed to gather more power, and is now left in such a weakened state on the Hell Train.
Hoaqin calls out Vicente for being someone who's also trying to gather the siblings souls for his own resurrection. He then calls out Vicente for being contradictory asking if the latter has the right to claim that Hoaqin shouldn't give up everything else when Vicente is obviously trying to give everything up. Having heard everything, Vicente claims that none of this was his doing as it was all plotted by Hoaqin alone while the other four sibligns were forced to sleep. Vicente then states that now that the four siblings are finally away again, he will become the new center after stopping Hoaqin.
Becoming enraged, Hoaqin orders Vicente to cut the crap asking if Vicente is planning to take everything from him. Clashing swords again, Hoaqin asks Vicente if the latter is truly planning on taking away everything that he's accomplished over the hundreds of years as White without much effort or sacrifice to do so. Hoaqin yells at Vicente that the latter knows nothing about everything the former had to deal with while the four sibligns were asleep, and reminds Vicente that he won't become stronger with such a weak mind. He informs Vicente that sacrifice is needed in order to become stronger, and such a power can only be achieved by benefiting from the deaths of those who've been sacrificed. Continuing to clash swords, Hoaqin states to Vicente that a great Tower ruler can only be born if they step over others. A path that Vicente would never be able to walk.
Hoaqin asks if the other siblings will truly accept Vicente as the true center of White, which causes Vicente to answer that this has already begun to happen. Vicente informs Hoaqin that one of their siblings has already accepted the idea of him being White's new center, which confuses Hoaqin.
Hoaqin asks what Vicente means by that, but it's at this point that he notices a different looking Wangnan walking towards him. With the White Heavenly Mirror activated, Wangnan is seen with glowing white-hair as he gives off a grin stating that it's been a long time since he last saw Hoaqin. In return, Hoaqin is left shocked being able to recognize the voice coming out of Wangnan that's clearly not of the yellow-head, but of the fourth sibling who's speaking through Wangnan. Calling out to David, the name of the fourth sibling, Hoaqin asks him why his voice is coming out of yellow-guy, which David answers that he's just borrowing Wangnan's body since the guy is currently participating in the game while David isn't.
At another location in the pipe maze, Bam is seen zooming through the pipes on his shinsu platform while Ehwa, Hanool, and Bero hold onto him for dear life. Hanool asks if they will really be able to find their other companions going through the maze like this since the pipes are interplaced all around the Hell Train engine core. As a result, Hanool points out that based on what Buelsar told them, the Second Round was set up since the very beginning to put Viole as far away from his other companions as possible. Hanool figures that even if they go as fast as possible, it will be impossible to find the rest of the team before something bad happens. Bam agrees that Hanool's explanation is probably correct. He can quickly get their current group to the core on the shinsu platform at the rate they're going, but knows that from there, it will be impossible to locate where the rest of his companions are throughout the pipe maze.
Bam adds that he's not too worried about the Sweetfish group since it's being led by Khun, but admits that he's worried about the folk who may bump into Hoaqin along the way. He concludes that their best option is to make a shortcut, which confuses Ehwa, Hanool, and Bero.
Bam asks for confirmation that there was no rule given that he ouldn't damage the maze pipes, which confuses the group even further. As Bam begins to swarm shinsu around his hands, the scared group asks what he means by damaging the pipes. Outside the pipe maze, the next event that occurs leaves Train Administrator Poro stunned in disbelief as he watches the end of one of the pipes break off, and is now sticking straight up into the air.
The action leaves Poro unable to believe what he's seeing knowing that Viole has decided to use the power of shinsu to change around the original structure of the pipes. Suddenly, the end of the pipe sticking up into the air goes crashing down into the side of another one of the pipes. Bam and company enter the new pipe through the entrance he just created as he explains to the group that there's no problem here since he hasn't violated any of the game rules by staying within the pipe maze. Having just experienced Bam doing something crazy, the group yells out that this isn't the problem he should currently be focused on.
Returning to Hoaqin's location, he asks how David is here since he hasn't noticed his presense until now, but begins to realize that David's soul must have been captured, and sealed away in the White Heavenly Mirror currently in Wangnan's right hand. Hoaqin remains confused as to what's going on since Wangnan's group shouldn't have been able to find the Hell Train location where David was hidden away.
Hoaqin wonders if it was possible that they came across David on coincidence, but concludes that there's way too much luck involved for Wangnan to come across both Vicente and David. However, Hoaqin starts to piece together that there just so happened to be a person with the ability to track down his siblings, and also happens to have a spell that can send souls into other humans. Hoaqin turns his attention to Daniel, who asks why the former is looking at him so seriously. Daniel asks why Hoaqin isn't laughing since this is turning out to be a fun event, which causes Hoaqin to realize what's up, and calls Daniel a bastard knowing what Daniel pulled here.
Daniel flashes back to the moment when he approached Vicente's group after they had escaped from Hoaqin and Team Rachel. The deal he offers is to do him a favor if Vicente's side wins the game, and in return, he will provide them a location of one of the white-haired siblings right here and now. Wangnan remains confused by the offer knowing that Daniel is an enemy that has sided with Hoaqin, but Daniel informs him that he's only allied with Hoaqin as long as the Slayer Candidate does a favor for him.
Daniel asks once more for Vicente to make this promise in return for the former providing the location of the other siblings. He asks for Vicente to make sure the sibling sides with Vicente no matter what, and once he does, Daniel offers to provide Hoaqin's location through Emile during the Dallar Show's Third Round. Daniel leaves off stating that the code on Emile they will use for this plan will be called Roen.
Back to the present, David in Wangnan's body charges forward prepared to stab Hoaqin with the White Heavenly mirror. Seeing Vicente still blocking off the opposite path, Hoaqin begins to sweat in fear realizing that he's gotten stuck in a bad situation. Meanwhile, Boro and company's fight with Anna continues nearby.
With the support of Aka's two subordinates, Boro and Aka move to destroy Anna's soul-melting liquid pot. Aka throws Boro forward, and while being protected by Aka's subordinate's lighthouse field, is able to stab through the pot, and completely destory it. Daniel continues to watch the fight in silence seeing his old teammates doing well against Anna. In the meantime, Daniel turns around to see how the fight against Hoaqin is going.
David stabs the White Heavenly Mirror into Hoaqin's back, who complains how Daniel could have betrayed him by convincing David to side against him. However, Wangnan speaks instead of David claiming that this isn't a betrayal. Daniel just chose to make the same deal with Daniel with Vicente that he originally made with Hoaqin.
David then speaks once more telling brother Hoaqin that Vicente made the promise that he would exclude David from becoming White once more. David informs Hoaqin that he accepted Vicente's offer because like Vicente, he also wants to live his own life instead of staying forever asleep within White.
Vicente orders Hoaqin to give up now since the other siblings will no longer be fooled by the latter's trickery. He then tells Hoaqin that once he eats him using the same eating spell, it will result in the other siblings now finally being free of Hoaqin. The threat enrages Hoaqin, who yells at Vicente asking if the latter really believes that the former will allow him to end everything.
Hoaqin yells out that he's the God FUG desires, and asks Vicente if he thinks FUG will let him get away with eating Hoaqin's soul. As Vicente begins to cut into Hoaqin's neck, the latter yells out to the former that he and David will regret this. Hoaqin continues to yell out that he will never allow them to take his soul. However, the last time Hoaqin states he will never allow them to eat his soul completely changes to a serious and calm tone ordering Vicente to go ahead and eat him, which confuses Vicente. The tone switch leaves Daniel confused as well as Hoaqin begins to laugh stating how pitiful this revolt turned out to be.
Hoaqin reveals to Vicente that from a long time ago, he told the other siblings a lie, which confuses Vicente even further. Hoaqin asks Vicente to think back to the night when he first told him and the other siblings how their Complete One spell is going to work. In the past, Hoaqin is seen approaching Vicente, Anna, David, and the fifth sibling, excited to inform them that he discovered the way to surpass their father. He informs the siblings that it's a spell, which was left behind by an ancient demon. Speaking to Vicente, Anna, David, and Albelda (the fifth sibling), Hoaqin states that it was only the five of them who have gathered in order to surpass their father.
Back to the present, Hoaqin explains to Vicente how the five of them were set to climb the Tower in a couple days after they were selected as Regulars. How it was during one of those very nights that Hoaqin accidentally came across an old spell that ws left behind by an ancient demon during his studies.
Hoaqin then explains how they became one after studying the spell, and climbed up the Tower as White. However, Hoaqin informs Vicente that this information right here is a lie. Hoaqin informs Vicente that he didn't actually find the book accidentally, but that he had actually received it from the demon himself.
Hoaqin explains how he had one day come across the demon, which smelled so bad as if the demon's body was melted by sulfer. The demon was so disgusting that one look upon it could tell anyone that it was an impious being. Hoaqin states that one day, the demon had appeared before him during his sleep to talk to him. He admits that he was cautious looking at the demon, but he explains how the demon had ordered him to deceive his siblings by offering them to him. In return, the demon will grant Hoaqin great power as a God of FUG alongside said demon.
Hoaqin points out that the demon's words were sweet and perfect like ripe fruit. After waking up from the dream with the demon, Hoaqin found a book lying in front of him. He then went about reading the book as if he was bewitched, and it was at that very moment that he decided to go along with the demon's plan.
Saying that everything he just said is the truth, Hoaqin informs Vicente that the demon is still sleeping within his body, and is awaiting the moment for White's resurrection. The revelation shocks Vicente as Hoaqin states once more that Vicente and David know nothing. That the soul-eating spell was made to make Hoaqin a FUG Slayer from the very beginning, because he was the only one that had made a deal with the demon. Vicente and David begin to get enveloped by Hoaqin's shinsu as a voice is heard asking father not to forgive him as he's a sinner. Hoaqin yells out that him being the center of White had already been decided since the start as Daniel is forced to watch Hoaqin absorb Vicente and David.
Meanwhile, a beam of white light from Hoaqin's location is seen by Sachi and company during their fight with Anna. However, the light also begins to envelop Anna, much to everyone confusion. Meanwhile, Yuri and Evan remain confused as well wondering what's going on at the pipe location that is giving off a bright light. Pedro gives off a satisfied reaction knowing what's going on while Poro begins to sweat wondering if White's revival has already begun.
At Hoaqin's loation, Daniel stands by as he spots a single person glowing in white appear out of the dust. A moment after, Wangnan and Vicente's bodies fall to the floor as Hoaqin claims that this was such a pity. Hoaqin's white glow subsides as he turns to Daniel stating that the latter must have thought that this was a good chance to kill the former. Hoaqin picks up the book that was carried around by Vicente, and reads through it stating that everything that just happened now was somewhat fun.
He then turns to Daniel stating that now that he knows of Daniel's betrayal, he no longer has a reason to bring Roen back to life. He then taunts Daniel stating that this event was quite entertaining. Daniel begins to sweat, and begins to fear for the worst knowing that Hoaqin has almost become a Complete One after absorbing Vicente, David, and Anna. At this point, only one sibling for Hoaqin to reabsorb (Albelda) remains.
Nearby, Bam continues to make his way through the pipe tunnels zooming around on his shinsu platform. Hanool points out that they appear to have reached a location where some sort of red liquid is falling down towards them as Bam heads up towards an entrance that looks like a broken fan. Showing that Bam has reached the location where Hoaqin has just now reabsorbed three of his siblings. Bam looks at the red liquid flowing down the sides of the pipes, and confirms that he feels shinsu within it. He deduces that something must have happened beyond the pipe fan they're about to go through.
Alongside Bam, Ehwa questions to herself if she's supposed to be calling Viole at this point or not. She also thinks over how Hoaqin was once a FUG Slayer, and fears that the guy may end up being an enemy with the kind of power that they won't be able to handle. Ehwa then questions why Bam isn't afraid despite possibly knowing this, and admits that while she herself feels safe when she's around Bam, Ehwa admits that it doesn't make any sense whatsoever. Despite Bam being always so fearless and pure, Ehwa fears that something might happen.
Ehwa uses this chance to ask Bam if he's afraid about the current situation. Bam quickly answers that he is, which shocks Ehwa. Giving off a smile, Bam warns the group they they need to hurry, or else Hoaqin will reunite with all of his siblings. He charges the shinsu platform he's standing on towards the fan entrance to the next room as Ehwa, Hanool, and Bero, continue to hold on for dear life.
Still watching the Second Round of the Dallar Show unfold, Yura questions what the white-light shining through the pipe was that she saw go down at Hoaqin's location. She complains that the current way the game is being viewed to her is annoying since the screen is only showing certain scenes going down inside the pipes. Threatening Pedro, she orders the Train Conductor to start showing the important stuff, such as following around Bam more clearly, which Pedro agrees to do.
Getting impatient having to stand around and watch, Yuri asks Evan if she should just trust Bam to make it through this since he appears quite strong now. However, Evan is lost in thought over the white-light he saw earlier since it didn't seem ordinary. Evan deduces that he understands Bam's current situation, but is left confused as to why FUG would want two Slayer Candidates to complete against one another. He also wonders who it is that's out there that FUG considers worthy enough to complete against an Irregular.
Back to Hoaqin's location, he continues to stand triumphant over the unconscious Wangnan and Vicente, who's bodies now lie on the floor. Seeing Daniel beginning to sweat, Hoaqin asks why Daniel is giving off such a scared look, and taunts him to laugh over this interesting event. Meanwhile, Boro and Sachi are seen regrouping with Aka's two underlings that came to their rescue. Aka falls over in pain due to his back being severely injured from blocking the soul-melting liquid from reaching Boro. His two underlings ask if he's alright, which Aka orders to stop worrying about him, and head over to Sachi to support him against Anna.
Looking in Sachi's direction however, they see that he's now standing alone. Boro asks where the white-haired copy went, which Sachi warns them that he's fearing that something bad is about to happen at the location where they spotted Hoaqin earlier.
Meanwhile, Hoaqin walks toward Daniel taunting him once more as to why Daniel's not laughing anymore. Hoaqin points out that it must have been quite difficult for Daniel to hold back his laughter believing that he discovered a safer route to bring back Roen by betraying him for Vicente. Daniel remains confused as to how Hoaqin accomplished this as Hoaqin taunts him once more to laugh like he usually does. Hoaqin asks for Daniel to think over why it's only he of his sibings that's still around, and reminds Daniel of how he's the precious being that is the only one who deserves to survive until the end.
The Slayer Candidate explains to Daniel that the power of Vicente and David are just small fractions of the true power that he hid away within the Hell Train. Hoaqin also points out how the reason he was so worried earlier was because he was fearing that his siblings would end up disappearing for some other reason on the Hell Train, and that he needed to reabsorb all four of his siblings at one point again in order to have enough strength to use the spell that would allow him to obtain the power he hid away here.
Swarming his white-shinsu in his hand, Hoaqin reminds Daniel that now that he's absorbed three of his siblings, his goal will soon be accomplished after acquiring the last one (Albelda). Hoaqin then warns Daniel that after absorbing the final sibling, he plans to cast the spell using the souls of everyone still currently living within the Hell Train in order to fulfill the last requirement to resurrect as the FUG Slayer, White. He leaves off taunting Daniel that he plans to bring out Roen's soul as well in order to eat her again.
The taunt enrages Daniel to begin charging up his Living Creature shinsu asking if Hoaqin really believes he would allow the Slayer Candidate to do that. Before Daniel could act however, Hoaqin quickly charges forward, and stabs the former through the chest with his sword. Hoaqin taunts Daniel to die before getting the chance to fight him, and asks to wait in hell with Roen since he plans to use both their souls as fuel to help with his White resurrection. At that same time outside the pipe maze, Poro is left shocked in confusion as to why Hoaqin has suddenly turned on Daniel.
A moment later, Boro's group arrives at Hoaqin's location only to see that the Slayer Candidate has stabbed into Daniel. Sachi asks what's going on since they were under the belief that Daniel and Hoaqin were on the same side, which the dying Daniel asks why his old teammates chose to come here. Hoaqin spots the newcomers as well, and finds it amusing that the other three idiots from the past Roen event have arrived to die here as well. He asks if they've come to retrieve their traitor bastard friend as he takes out his sword from Daniel's chest. As a result, Daniel falls to the floor in pain as Boro calls out to him hoping his former teammate is ok. Daniel asks what's with Boro's group acting like they're old friends all of a sudden, and warns his former comrades to give up the game before it's too late.
Ignoring it, Boro points out to the group that Hoaqin's appearance is close to returning to his old Complete One form, which Sachi gives the order that it doesn't matter since they need to work to take him down this very moment. Before they could act however, Hoaqin points his sword at Daniel claiming that he will cut off the head of the traitor if they approach any further.
Giving off a laugh, Hoaqin admits that Boro, Aka, Sachi, and Daniel, have proven themselves to be quite dangerous due to what they pulled on him in the past. Hoaqin explains that since he's not a full Complete One yet, he still doesn't wish to deal with them at the moment given their history. He offers them a deal to kill themselves in return for Daniel being the one that lives, which shocks Boro, Aka, and Sachi. They refuse asking what kind of a joke offer is that, which Hoaqin taunts them why that can't do it similar to how Roen sacrificed herself in order for them to continue living. Hoaqin states that it would make a beautiful ending to the story if they did they same for Daniel.
Sachi steps forward claiming that he will choose to give up his life, which shocks Boro. He asks for Hoaqin to exclude Boro and Aka, and in return, he will trade himself for Daniel without any problems. However, Hoaqin refuses it stating once more that he's after all three of their lives, which irritates Boro even further. Before Boro could act however, Bam's group finally arrives. Bam and Ehwa jump off the shinsu platform to land in front of Hoaqin while Bero and Hanool remain on the shinsu platform. Bam orders the man known as White to stop joking around as Hoaqin quickly realizes that Jue Viole Grace has appeared before him.
At that same time, Cassano and Traveller are seen having blocked off the path for Khun's Sweetfish group to reach the exit to the next pipe. Cassano stands prepared for a fight with his Devil Arm already activated as Khun's group realizes that the enemies from Team Rachel were waiting around this whole time for their arrival.
Khun deduces that this roadblock happened moments before the exit, and figures that this trap can only mean one thing. Turning around, Khun's group spot the Rachel and Yura group appearing as well. Rachel steps forward claiming that they've kept Khun waiting long enough, and asks him if it's about time to begin the Sweetfish Hunt.
Khun's Sweetfish Group of himself, Hwaryun, Danhwa, and the Sweetfish they need to escort, stalls on a pipe bridge with the Cassano and Traveller group in front of them while the Rachel and Yura group stands behind them. Khun replies back that Rachel is more determined than he originally thought knowing that Rachel must have been waiting it out the whole time until they could completely surround the Sweetfish group.
Rachel counters that Khun is the only one still refusing to believe that she acts this way, She asks him to remember back to how long she pretended to suffer broken legs just to keep up the charade around him.
Danhwa interrupts the conversation asking like he did at the Wooden Horse station for Yura to leave Team Rachel. He warns Yura that FUG isn't a normal group, and will just use Yura for their own benefits while leaving her to fend for herself, which continues to confuse Yura as to why Danhwa is going so far as to try to help her. However, Rachel interrupts back asking for this nonsense to stop since the game will be over soon. Cassano is seen powering up his Devil Arm even further ready to attack Khun's Sweetfish group. Khun looks at the Devil of the Right Arm standing before him, and deduces that he looks about as strong as a normal Ran if the latter hasn't powered himself up with the lightning pill.
Khun also points into account that idol Yura isn't to be underestimated, and figures that he will be at a disadvantage against them since he also has to protect the Sweetfish. However, Khun also deduces that it should have reached a point by now where another group should come across their location. A moment after, just like Khun theorized, Rak is seen dropping in from above with Team Bero's Cherry La asking if the blue turtle is in danger.
The Regulars all look in surprise seeing that the alligator has arrived as Rak lands infront of Cassano, and quickly enlarges himself back to normal size to take on the Devil of the Right Arm. Cherry arrives before Cassano as well prepared for a fight. Rak claims that this looks like it will be a fun match as Cassano charges forward with his Devil Arm ordering the alligator to stay out of his way. Rak quickly realizes that he's facing off against the Devil of the Right Arm as Cherry looks over Cassano to find his weak point.
As Rak prepares to block Cassano's strike, Cherry supports the alligator by sending a shinsu attack at what she believes to be the Devil of the Right Arm's weak point. Cassano looks to his right, and sees Traveller having been picked up within a shinsu ball by Cherry, which grabs his attention. Figuring that the group must care about her new hostage, Cherry warns the rest of Team Rachel that should they make any sudden moves against the Sweetfish group, she will kill Traveller. The shocked Rachel remains confused by the event that just went down, and asks how the Rak and Cherry group managed to find out they were here.
Khun steps in claiming that he bought some insurance by leaving bread crumbs during their journey through the pipe maze. He explains that along the way, their Sweetfish group used a Dallar on each door they came across to lock them shut. Khun also points out that it was a gamble since it could have ended up working against him if an enemy team ended up following their bread crumb trail. However, given that Bam's faction has a statistically higher amount of people within the game, there was a higher chance that an allied team was going to follow the Sweetfish group's trail. Sure enough, it was the Rak and Cherry group that ended up following them after discovering the bread crumbs, which leaves Rachel stunned.
Continuing the explanation, Khun informs Rachel that in the end, it didn't matter if he ended up bring more enemies to the Sweetfish group's location since there's still the simple escape method. The method being to just make an opening to the pipe door, and locking it with a high Dallar amount that Rachel's group wouldn't be able to unlock given that the Sweetfish group started with an insane amount of 125 Dallars. Rak interrupts in anger claiming that he was ready to kill whoever the person was that kept locking the doors that he and Cherry kept coming across, which Khun apologizes for. Khun turns his attention back on Rachel stating that he's glad someone within the pipe maze was smart enough to notice his locked door plan since now, their group has enough people to easily escape Team Rachel to get behind a locked pipe door with the Sweetfish still alive.
However, Khun also warns Rak and company that he still can't guarantee if their group will outright win in a fight against Team Rachel given that the enemy has two powerful Regulars in Cassano and Yura. Meanwhile, Rachel continues to listen in silence annoyed that she's having to deal with more of Khun's petty tricks.
Stepping forward, Khun states to Team Rachel that he knows they don't wish to lose here. He also points out how in return, he doesn't wish for his Sweetfish group to have to spend a high amount of Dallars to lock a pipe door just for the sake of keeping Team Rachel away from them. Rachel remains confused by what Khun is getting at, which Khun continues by offering a match between just him and Rachel with all the Dallars between their two teams up for grabs. The offer leaves Rachel even more confused as Rak complains why it's Khun who gets to hog all the fun for himself. However, Khun orders him to shut up.
Khun asks Rachel if she will accept the one-on-one duel with him, and should she accept, he will let their hostage (Traveller) go. He reminds Rachel that their duel will have all the Dallars between their two sides up for grabs, and that he will make sure that their duel is fair-and-equal so that neither side is at a disadvantage. After thinking it over, Rachel agrees to it, and asks for Khun to start explaining their one-on-one duel. Moments later, the members of Khun's and Rachel's group remain on standby as they watch Khun and Rachel in the distance now floating on top of their respective lighthouses.
Now in position for their duel, Rachel asks once more for the rules regarding their fair-and-equal match, which Khun answers that it's pretty simple. He tosses a coin up into the air, and if it lands on heads (the Dallar number), it will be Rachel's win. However, should it land on the tails side (the Dallar symbol) she will lose.
The rules of the game leaves Rachel annoyed as she complains that it's just going to be based on pure luck. Khun agrees that this coin-toss game is indeed based on luck, but goes about taunting Rachel that a duel with him as someone from one of the Ten Great Families would be complete nonsense. He also taunts her stating that no matter what, she won't be able to outsmart him in a brain match, so in order for Rachel to accept a game against him that would be fair enough, it would have to be a game based on pure luck. Giving off a smile, Khun states that the coin-toss is to see who it is that the god of the Tower loves more.
Seeing Rachel remain silent, Khun asks if she's worried that god won't choose her, and re-assures her that he was never much of a lucky man himself. However, Rachel begins to give off a creepy laugh. She explains that it might just be herself feeling despereate, but there's also a part of her that wants to prove that the thing Khun just said about her is wrong. Rachel asks for Khun to toss it since she's now beginning to wonder who it will be that comes out the winner.
Back to Hoaqin's location, Bam now stands before him after arriving through the fan entrance. The injured Daniel asks why Jue Viole Grace is here, which Bam answers that he's here to fight the person known as White standing before him. Ehwa notices Wangnan nearby lying unconscious, and moves to check if her Tangsooyook teammate is ok, but has her path blocked off by Hoaqin's sword. He warns the flame-girl that she shouldn't pick up the scraps of another person's mean, which irritates Ehwa.
Hoaqin then turns his attention back to Bam, and states that he's glad the new Slayer Candidate chose to arrive here since it saved him the trouble of having to go look for Jue Viole Grace after dealing with Boro's group. Hoaqin also points out how Bam knowing about his real White identity has caught his attention, and figures that this must mean that Viole learned about what White is capable of as a FUG Slayer. Preparing his sword for a fight, Hoaqin states that as a result of Viole knowing who White is, he can't tell if Bam is either brave or stupid for taking him on.
Hoaqin asks what Viole thinks of the former as someone who's now almost back to his complete White form, which confuses Boro wondering what's going on since he's never heard anything about a person called White. He reminds Bam and company that he's still just a shell of White, but asks if they think he's more beautiful than before after absorbing his three siblings. However, Bam instead uses this opportunity to asks Hoaqin a question, which confuses the latter. Bam explains how he heard the story of something going wrong in Hoain's past that caused him to lose his position as a FUG Slayer in the terrorist organization.
The question Bam chooses to ask is what Hoaqin did back then that resulted in him losing his FUG Slayer status, which Hoaqin answers that it wasn't anything major aside from killing a lot of people as offerings to make himself stronger. He figures that the amount of people he killed back then must have been close to a billion, which shocks Bam and company.
An enraged Ehwa begins to flare up as Hoaqin explains that it was all such a shame since he worked on that massive spell for ages, and yet it was all suddenly ruined due to the appearance of a Jahad Princess getting in his way. Ehwa calls Hoaqin a lunatic, and prepares to fire a blast of Yeon-flames at him. Bam and Sachi calls out to her to not rush in attacking without a plan, but are left stunned to see Ehwa's flames suddenly gone.
Hoaqin begins to walk forward to get closer to Bam as Ehwa realizes that the former is now strong enough to turn off the flames of the Great Yeon Family. He then explains that because a Jahad Princess ruined his plan back then, he lost all his powers as White, and ended up stuck here aboard the Hell Train.
However, Hoaqin claims that he doesn't regret all the killings he did since it's only natural for the masses to sacrifice themselves for the greater being. Placing his sword up against Bam's throat, Hoaqin then threatens Bam that White's legend will soon begin again, and that it will start by cutting off the head of the newest Slayer Candidate, Jue Viole Grace.
Bam replies back that he doesn't understand how Hoaqin could be so full of himself after killing so many people. He then begins to push Hoaqin's sword back from this throat using his shinsu. An action that shocks Hoaqin seeing someone managing to push his sword back despite gaining the the power of three of his siblings. Bam states that he has no wish for the Slayer Candidate position, or to have such power to rule over anyone in the Tower.
However, he warns Hoaqin that despite what he just said, Bam can't allow such a demon to be set loose upon the world again. He continues to push Hoaqin's sword back with just his hand, which Hoaqin admits that something about Viole has changed recently. Bam assures Hoaqin that no matter what it takes, he will stop him from resurrecting as White. Looking down at Bam, Hoaqin finds it amusing that Viole is claiming to stop him. Licking his lips in excitement, Hoaqin taunts Bam stating that everything Viole has appeared, he's done nothing but talk complete nonsense.
Boro and Sachi warn Bam to get back knowing how dangerous Hoaqin is as the latter tries to slash his sword upon Viole. Bam evades the strike by falling back as the pipe floor before him instantly gets destroyed. He is able to deduce that Hoaqin's sword strike has gotten stronger since the last time they fought at the Wooden Horse station, and admits that it seems appearance isn't the only thing that chanced about Hoaqin.
Meanwhile, Hoaqin finds it interesting that Bam was able to dodge his powerful sword strike despite being at such close range. Powering up his thornbush shinsu weapon, Sachi reminds Hoaqin to not forget that they're also here as he sends his thorn shinsu towards the Slayer Candidate. As the thorn-shinsu gets close however, Hoaqin is able to easily cut it apart as the irritated Slayer Candidate yells out to Sachi if the guy really believed such a petty trick would be enough to defeat him. Hoaqin charges forward finding Sachi's effort to be ridiculous as one of Aka's subordinates fires long-range shinsu bullets at him. However, Hoaqin orders the subordinate to stop getting in the way as he quickly slashes the subordinates weapon that's been firing the shinsu bullets.
Bam quickly moves to attack as he appears in front of Hoaqin. He attempts to land a punch on the latter, but Hoaqin easily throws the punch off by deflecting it with his sword at the last second. Surprised once more by Bam's movements, Hoaqin states once more that there's no doubt something regarding Viole has changed since their last fight. He admits that the fact Bam has been able to keep up with him is proof enough that Viole must have found a way to get much stronger during the one month journey to the Slayer Candidate game.
Hoaqin asks if Viole really believes getting a bit more strength over the past month will be enough to defeat him as he powers up his massive sword with shinsu. He figures that its about time to test what Viole's current limit is as Bam quickly deduces that his only option is to dodge the shinsu-enhanced sword strike Hoaqin's about to perform. He orders everyone to get back as Hoaqin swings his shinsu-enhanced sword in their direction. Known as the Arie Swordsmanship Technique: Sect Two Tenth Stance - White-type Spirit Sword, Hoaqin sends out a massive shockwave in Bam and company's direction with his sword strike.
Bam gives the order throughout the shockwave for everyone to stand together as dust of the destroyed pipe begins to cover the area from being able to see anything. Destroying the area in massive white light is one of Hoaqin's most powerful Arie Swordsmanship Techniques; The Sword of the Roaring Lion Spirit.
Still watching the game, the sight of an Arie Swordsmanship Technique shocks Yuri and Evan, who confirms that Hoaqin isn't just some normal Regular contestant. They realize that he's actually a member from the white-haired, sword-using, Great Arie Family; the most famous of Jahad's Ten Great Families.
Yuri worries that Hoaqin could end up slashing up Bam's face, and warns Evan that no matter what, they need to protect the boy's face. Hearing Yuri's complaint, the confused Evan reminds her not to lose sight of the fact that her own life is currently on the line.
After using the Sword of the Roaring Lion Spirit attack, Hoaqin looks at his sword in disappointment seeing that he seems to still be missing a lot of his power. He is left wondering if perhaps he still hasn't been able to completely absorb the strength of Vicente and David. A moment later, Hoaqin spots a giant mass of Yeon flames appearing at the spot he just let loose his Arie Swordsmanship Technique.
Bam appears out of Ehwa's Yeon-flames that protected his group, and charges at Hoaqin. He manages to evade Hoaqin's sword swing, but instead of attempting to counterattack, Bam goes behind Hoaqin, and picks up the White Heavenly Mirror left behind by Wangnan. Hoaqin remains confused by Viole's action as he watches Bam use the White Heavenly Mirror to seal the unconscious bodies of Wangnan and Vicente within said knife to protect them from any harm during their fight. Hoaqin gives off a laugh asking what Viole is trying to accomplish since he doesn't understand what the point is of taking away two useless bodies. However, Bam remains silent at he gets ready to continue their fight.
Thinking back to the moment during the dust has covered them up from Hoaqin's Sword of the Roaring Lion Spirit attack, Bam remembers how Daniel explained to him the current situation. Daniel asks for Jue Viole Grace to listen carefully, because it will be all over if they don't manage to defeat Hoaqin during the Dallar Show's Second Round. He explains that including Hoaqin having already absorbed three of his siblings, the final sibling (Albelda) is already within FUG's possession. As a result, it's only a matter of time before FUG willingly hands the final piece over to Hoaqin so that White would finally be ready to fully resurrect.
Daniel figures that FUG handing the final sibling over is bound to happen during the Second Round, and warns Viole that if Hoaqin manages to become a Complete One before the Third Round, then the spell he placed upon the Hell Train will activate killing every other living creature inside the express. The revelation shocks Bam, which Daniel continues to explain that there's a reason Hoaqin chose the Hell Train as his hiding place.
Daniel also points out how the Hell Train holds within it the souls of many people who have died over the ages trying to complete the Hell Train run, and as a result, it was the perfect massive farm for Hoaqin to eat the souls that have been left behind here. Continuing the explanation, Daniel says to Bam that Hoaqin's purpose of boarding the Hell Train was to absorb all the souls that have been left behind in order to regain his power as the Ranker FUG Slayer, White.
Afterwards, Hoaqin would cast a spell upon the Hell Train that would gather all the souls together to create an incredible power for himself after eating them. He warns Bam once more that if Hoaqin becomes White again, and then activates the spell, then every living creature currently within the Hell Train will simply turn into soul food for Hoaqin.
Claiming that Hoaqin will be able kill the living and raise the dead, Daniel states that no matter what, they need to stop Hoaqin before any of that happens. Having heard Daniel's explanation, Bam gives the former the bad news that stopping Hoaqin wont be that simple.
However, Daniel replies back that he's somewhat come up with an idea. He points Bam in the direction of the White Heavenly Mirror that Wangnan was carrying, and explains that they may be able to find a way to take down Hoaqin utilizing that weapon. Since they don't have many options left, Daniel states that while it's not sure if it will work, using it is worth trying out.
Returning to the present, Bam stands ready to use the White Heavenly Mirror against Hoaqin, and activates his Thorn for a power increase. Deducing that he's already reached his limit to use his trump card attack again that defeated the Mad Dog, Buelsar, in the earlier fight, Bam concludes that he needs to give it his all here before his energy runs out. Meanwhile, Hoaqin sees Viole before him charging up what seems like a powerful attack with the Thorn, and questions what it is that the opposing Slayer Candidate is up to.
Back to the Sweetfish group's location, Khun and Rachel continue to stand on top of their lighthouses to play their one-one-one game. Khun figures that it's about time for them to start the coin-toss game since Rachel has agreed to get started, and informs her that they'll use a separate lighthouse that the Dallar will land upon so that their other teammates can see the outcome.
Throwing the coin up and down in his hand, Khun warns Rachel that this will be their only chance, so no matter who loses, there will be no whining allowed. Off on the side, an annoyed Rak asks what's going on since he finds it hard to believe that the blue turtle will fight using pure luck.
Hwaryun is also confused about the situation wondering if Khun is confident enough to win based on luck, but also wonders if Khun really is leaving it to the God of the Tower rather than himself. Khun asks if Rachel is ready, which the latter orders Khun to toss it already since she wishes to get this over with quickly. However, Rachel tweaks the rules a bit being that if Khun loses here, he will be left with a single Dallar while she gets the rest so that it will be impossible for him to easily give up the Dallar Show game.
Khun agrees to the new term as he throws the Dallar coin up; stating that it's time for them to ask God how this will turn out. Khun and Rachel watch closely as the Dallar lands on the platform between their two lighthouses. Rolling over a couple times, the Dallar lands with the number ten facing up; meaning that it's Khun's win as the coin landed on heads.
Rak yells out in excitement knowing that the blue turtle came out the winner. The alligator continues to yell out finding it unbelievable that the handy Kon won so easily, but Rachel doesn't appear as excited. She yells out complaining that this result can't be correct, and states that it shouldn't count since it wasn't a proper showdown.
However, Khun reminds her that the two of them have agreed to not complain about the results. As a result, the coin-toss turning out to be heads with Khun as the winner does indeed count. Rachel continues to complain that that was only established when this was a fair match, and finds it suspicious that Khun was the one who got to throw the Dallar.
She figures that given the Dallar that was used belonged to Khun, then he must have rigged it somehow. Rachel states once more that this first coin-toss doesn't count, and that a rematch is needed to the point that she will consider it to be completely fair.
Khun taunts Rachel claiming that she's only saying this because he came out the winner, but Rachel states once more that the match was too balanced in favor of Khun since he had control of the Dallar. He scolds Rachel for continuing to grasp at straws, so instead, Rachel decides to make an offer if Khun was to win on the next coin-toss. She offers Khun everything that he may want to know about who Bam is, as well as what happened in Bam's past. She also offers to tell him what happened to Bam before they entered the Tower, all of which grabs Khun's attention. As Khun remains silent thinking it over, Rachel states that she figures this must be what Khun is truly after.
Off to the side, Rak is left confused about the current situation wondering why Khun is still standing around on his lighthouse when he already won the coin-toss. Meanwhile, Khun continues to think in silent knowing that he knows nothing about where Bam came from, and why he's an Irregular. Knowing that Rachel is offering to tell him what Bam's true identity is, Khun admits to himself that this is honestly too hard to turn down.
Khun agrees to let Rachel try the coin-toss game once again, which not only shocks Rachel, but leaves Rak confused wondering if the blue turtle has gone insane. Hwaryun is seen sticking her finger in her years so that she doesn't have to listen to Rak's confused yelling.
As Rak continues to complain in the background, Khun informs Rachel that if she loses on this second coin-toss, this will be it. Rachel agrees with it, and states that she will toss the Dallar herself this time around to make sure that Khun doesn't try to pull anything.
Khun is left thinking to himself that he finally has a chance to know about Bam's past as Rachel throws her Dallar onto the platform between the two of them. Rolling around a couple times, the coin lands on the symbol side this time around to show tails, which excites Rachel knowing that she won the second coin-toss.
Rak is left disappointed calling Khun an idiot for falling for a second coin-toss, which disappoints Khun as well knowing that he didn't win. Khun scratches his head admitting that this isn't a good situation for him now finding it unbelievable that Rachel won here. However, since Rachel came out the winner with the second coin-toss, he points out that this proves the game was truly fair, which grabs Rachel's attention.
Khun asks Rachel for one more round for a best-of-three. Whoever wins the third, and final, coin-toss will be declared the overall winner. Rachel complains that they already established the second coin-toss would be the final around, which Khun reminds her that he just allowed Rachel to play another coin-toss under the same conditions. Khun continues to hear Rak complaining in the background to drop dead as he states that it would only make sense for him and Rachel to play one more time under these same conditions. He also warns Rachel that no one is going to accept the results if they let it end like this allowing for Rachel to get her way, and figures that the only solution is to play out a proper third coin toss with no strings attached.
Seeing Rachel remain silent unable to say anything back, Khun asks once more to settle this with a final round, and that the coin-toss game will be changed to be a best two-out-of-three. Khun also adds that he won't complain this time around if he loses, and that it will be Rak this time around who will toss the Dallar coin, which grabs the alligator's attention wondering why he was mentioned. Rak asks how this would be considered fair since he's on the same side as Bam's faction, but Rachel agrees to it since she feels like the alligator is someone who isn't the type that would pull any stunts, which confuses Rak even further as to why he was forced into this. A moment later, Rak joins Khun and Rachel on the lighthouse platforms holding the Dallar join for the third coin-toss. Rak begins to sweat knowing what's at stake here as Khun and Rachel continue to order him to throw the Dallar onto the platform already.
The alligator then turns to Khun asking how he should make the coin drop as heads, which enrages Khun asking Rak how he's supposed to know that, and orders him to just throw it already. He also complains as to why Rak is acting like such a wuss when he's got the body size as big as a mountain.
Meanwhile, Hwaryun continues to watch the coin-toss game unfold from the sideline. She deduces that the group doesn't know who will come out the winner, but the probability of it has already been fixed by an outside source. Khun and Rachel order Rak once more to drop the Dallar as the alligator finally lets it go to begin the third coin-toss.
Hwaryun thinks over how the entire coin-toss match unfolded, and concludes that there's no doubt the first coin-toss that was thrown by Khun was a fixed win on Khun's part. Figuring that Khun must have used the lighthouse field to move the coin the way he wanted, Hwaryun figures that he couldn't pull it off with the second coin-toss as it would be too much of a gamble in front of all the enemy Regulars watching to use a lighthouse field twice in a row. She also concludes that it was obvious Rachel was going to resist after the failure of the first coin-toss. As a result, Hwaryun deduces that Khun had intended for the coin-toss match to continue beyond a single round.
Hwaryun concludes that unlike the first coin-toss which Khun rigged, the second coin-toss was based on pure luck, which Rachel ended up winning. However, since she was forced to play along with Khun allowing her to continue playing, it was obvious that she would fear the backlash for taking advantage of Khun's good-will to continue playing. As a result, it was obvious that Rachel would have no choice, but to accept facing off against Khun in a third coin-toss.
Hwaryun deduces that with the way Khun laid the plan out, he truly made a coin-toss game of three chances look fair despite the fact that he rigged the first round. As a result, Rachel lost her only chance of victory without her even knowing it. Hwaryun also points out in her mind that literally anyone could win this game since it's just a coin-toss based on probability. However, the kicker is that from the very beginning, Khun never believed that God would give Rachel good-luck twice. Hwaryun leaves off thinking that if God really is fair to everything, then probably will dictate that Khun will be the winner on the third coin-toss. The Dallar finally stands still on the platform as the coin number faces up; showing that Khun has won the third coin-toss.
Rachel begins to sweat seeing that she lost the coin-toss as Khun gives off a sigh of relief claiming that he couldn't breathe through the tension. On the sideline, Yura asks if this means that Team Rachel has officially lost as Hwaryun continues to think it over. The guide deduces that Khun just pulled off a risky gamble that had no guarantee of victory since its hard to trust probability to win a game. Hwaryun is left confused as to why Khun would go so far as to play such a game with Rachel, and wonders if it was all just to prove that God gives equal good-luck to everyone.
At that same time back at the fight location between Hoaqin and Bam, the latter continues to charge up his Thorn and shinsu while holding onto the White Heavenly Mirror. Hoaqin asks what Viole thinks he's trying to pull with that small weapon, but to the former's confusion, he watches as Bam takes a stance that he doesn't understand. Meanwhile, Boro and company are seen checking on Daniel after Hoaqin stabbed him.
Daniel explains the plan to Boro regarding the White Heavenly Mirror having the ability to store people's souls after stabbing someone in the heart, which catches Boro's attention. The former continues to explain that Hoaqin's current body is a lesser White form with several of his siblings souls within his body.
Daniel points out that Hoaqin still hasn't completely absorbed his siblings, and that they're currently moving throughout Hoaqin's body trying to free themselves in order to return to their original bodies. He leaves off informing Boro and company that the plan is for Bam to stab Hoaqin with the White Heavenly Mirror. As a result, there's a good chance that the souls within Hoaqin will react to the bodies that Bam sealed away within the White Heavenly Mirror, and will be drawn out of Hoaqin.
Aka asks if overall, Daniel's explanation is that the souls of Hoaqin's siblings will be drawn into the White Heavenly Mirror after Bam stabs him with it. Daniel answers that this is indeed the case, and that while he doesn't know how David or Anna will react, there's no doubt that Vicente will definitely choose to come out. Sachi agrees that this plan with the White Heavenly Mirror is worth a shot as he asks how Ehwa is doing after she protected them from Hoaqin's Sword of the Roaring Lion Spirit technique, which Ehwa answers that what she got hit by felt like nothing. Knowing that everyone is set, Sachi gives the order to get ready to support Bam.
Bam continues to charge up his shinsu while holding onto the White Heavenly Mirror as Hoaqin calls out to Viole claiming that said Slayer Candidate will soon regret trying to go up against him. A moment later, Ehwa yells back at Hoaqin to stop acting so cocky. She throws her Yeon flames at Hoaqin ordering him to eat it, but the Slayer Candidate quickly cuts it away with his sword claiming that it's no use. Bam then finally charges forward attempting to stab Hoaqin with the White Heavenly Mirror, but Hoaqin easily evades the stab. Hoaqin appears behind Bam ready to counter, but has his efforts stopped by Sachi, who uses his thornbush shinsu on the floor to grab hold of Hoaqin's legs.
Hoaqin finds such a petty trick amusing, and asks if they really believe that they will be able to defeat him with such tactics. However, Aka is the next to charge in claiming that if Hoaqin continues to look down on them like this, the latter will end up getting screwed just like what happened hundreds of years ago when the Roen incident happened. Hoaqin claims such a result to be nonsense as he dodges out of the way of Aka's attempt to land a punch on the Slayer Candidate.
Cutting apart Sachi's thornbush shinsu, Hoaqin orders Aka and company not to brag about being able to lock him away hundreds of years ago due to an event that was sheer luck. Hoaqin then taunts the group that no matter what, they will be no match for his current speed, but it's at this point that Bam suddenly appears in front of Hoaqin claiming that the latter's claim isn't true. Bam utilizes Ranker Mule Love's Slider technique to dodge Hoaqin's close-combat sword swings as the latter gives off a laugh finding it interesting that Viole thinks he can keep up with his current form.
Hoaqin claims that Viole is quite a joker, but it's at this point that Bam backs off once more, and beginning to show exhaustion. Bam begins to sweat knowing that his body is now even closer to reaching its limit. Hoaqin asks if this means that Viole has shown all he has, and taunts Bam saying that it looks like he was too much for the boy to handle. Aka uses this opportunity to ask for Bam to not overexert himself since they all know how hard Bam's been fighting the past month to get them to this point. Warning Bam that he's not in a condition anymore to continue fighting at full power, Aka asks for Bam to keep in mind that they still have the next fights to think about.
Aka states how he knows Bam is a user of reverse flow control, and informs the boy of the plan that if Bam manages to freeze Hoaqin for just a moment, then Aka will grab hold of him to completely immobilize said Slayer Candidate. He informs Bam that it may only be for a second, but the chance for them to stab Hoaqin will be the moment when Aka has hold of Hoaqin. He wishes Bam good luck as the latter agreeing to go along with the plan, and puts up his hand prepared to perform the freezing Bang.
Bam musters all the strength within him to perform this next freezing Bang, and manages to freeze Hoaqin for a brief moment. Aka then charges forward prepared to grab hold of the frozen Hoaqin. However Hoaqin quickly breaks loose of Bam's freezing Bang the moment Aka is about to grab him from behind. Hoaqin figures that from this angle, it will literally be impossible to stab Aka, and that the timing will not even be close to being correct, but assures himself that no matter what, he will make sure that his sword stabs Aka. Hoaqin chooses to stab his massive sword through himself, and as a result, stabs through Aka, and out his back.
Despite successfully stabbing Aka, the latter uses all his remaining strength to still grab hold of Hoaqin, which irritates the latter. Aka then yells out for Jue Viole Grace to perform the White Heavenly Mirror stab as Bam appears in front of Hoaqin ready to stab him. Hoaqin begins to fear that he's now caught in a situation where he's unable to dodge. A brief moment after, Bam successfully stabs into Hoaqin with the White Heavenly Mirror while being held tight by Aka. Meanwhile, as Yuri and Evan continue watching the fight, the Princess begins to get excited not being able to understand how Bam got into the position to stab the Great Arie Family member.
Boro and company begin to get excited as well knowing that the other sibling souls are now set to be extracted from Hoaqin through the White Heavenly Mirror. Hoaqin thinks to himself that he now understands what Viole and company was aiming for by trying to extract Vicente, David, and Anna, using their White Heavenly Mirror weapon, but he gives off a grin knowing that their attempt was pointless. Hoaqin looks down at Bam, and claims that they've failed.
In the meantime, Khun's Sweetfish group makes their way through the pipe tunnels after the members of Team Rachel are forced to stay behind having all their Dallars taken away due to Khun winning the coin-toss duel with Rachel. Khun calls out to the rest of the group that they need to hurry in case Hoaqin is nearby as they reach a pipe door with the Exit sign on it. Khun figures that they must have come across the Hell Train engine core finish line as his group with the Sweetfish still in hand continues to go beyond it.
Back to the Hoaqin fight, he admits that Viole and company's plan to attempt to use the White Heavenly Mirror to draw out the souls of his siblings was an impressive idea. However, they failed to realize one thing regarding that plan. Hoaqin taunts Bam and company that he's already completely absorbed Vicente, David, and Anna's souls, which means that there's no way for them to escape from his body. The revelation shocks Boro and company as the former begins to fear if they were too late to save the other siblings. Aka, who took a stab to the chest from Hoaqin, also falls to the floor in pain, which Sachi calls out to his old comrade hoping Aka is ok. At this point, the announcement is made that the Second Round has come to an end due to the Sweetfish having made it to the engine core. Train Administrator Poro gives the order for everyone to stop what they're doing within the pipe paze as Hoaqin taunts Bam saying that it seems his friends ended up saving him at the last second.
Hoaqin also claims that Viole is a lucky one since the latter has some good compansions unlike himself regarding the Team Rachel group. However, he also points out that in the end, he doesn't need companions anyway. Bam continues to remain silent in exhaustion as Hoaqin states to Jue Viole Grace that they will settle this fight in the Dallar Show's Third, and final, Round.
Poro continues the announcement that since the Second Round has come to an end, all remaining contestants of the Viole and Hoaqin factions will be transported to the engine core's entrance. He then warns the contesting Regulars that all fighting until the start of the Third Round will be forbidden. Before leaving, Hoaqin says to Jue Viole Grace that he will be waiting for him at the engine core for the Third Round. He leaves off warning Viole to use this time to recover since only death will await him at the engine core.
Hoaqin disappears as Boro and company quickly head over to the injured Aka hoping he's ok. Breathing heavily, Aka is left broken about the situation knowing that they failed to defeat Hoaqin here. He calls out Roen's name in anger, which causes Daniel to say Aka's name in pity.
Daniel flashes back to his old team's Hell Train journey when they were underlings of Hoaqin. He remembers how after Roen was forced to kill the first underling, several others of Hoaqin's group started showing up dead. Back then, Daniel deduced that the killings was obviously Hoaqin's plan to drive Roen and her teammates into a corner. As a result, since the other Express Ticket holders didn't know this was all Hoaqin's plan, they started to search the Hell Train for the murderer. In time, the other Regulars came to the agreement that only Roen could have been the true culprit.
After Roen was accused, Boro confronts Daniel asking the bastard why he kept this all a secret from the rest of the team regarding Roen being accused of killing everyone. Sachi, Aka, and Roen, all watch as Boro asks if Daniel has any idea what's going on currently since everyone within the Hell Train is now on the hunt to try to kill them. Boro tells Daniel that Hoaqin's underlings are going to execute them because of the deaths of the others, and asks once more why Daniel didn't tell them sooner. Daniel answers with a question of his own asking if his teammates truly believe that it would have made a difference, which confuses Boro.
Daniel asks if they really believe that Hoaqin will let this all slide simply because Roen only killed the first underling that was threatening their lives first, which Daniel answers himself that of course he won't. He points out that Hoaqin had been targeting them since the very beginning, and that placing Roen within this trap was part of the plan. Boro remains unable to say anything as Daniel yells back that there was no way to get out of this current hell despite knowing the fact that Roen didn't do anything wrong here. Boro is left asking himself in frustration what they're supposed to do now since there's no way out of here. Behind them is Roen, who has been constantly trembling in fear and frustration. Contantly biting her nails, she says to herself that no matter what, she has to somehow fix this. At this point, Poro arrives to great his teammates asking them to check out what he found. Holding a book, Poro informs them that he believes he found something important within Hoaqin's room, which grabs Boro and company's attention.
As time passed, Boro's team had looked through the spellbook, and discovered a means to seal Hoaqin within the Hell Train. However, in order to do so, it required someone's life (Roen) in order to perform the sealing spell.
Returning to the present, the injured Aka tells his team that he regrets not offering his own life. He claims that it was his job to offer his own life as the man who was given the rare Defender Tower Position to protect his teammates, and yells out why it wasn't him that died back then.
At that point, Aka finally falls unconscious, unable to stay awake due to the hole in his chest. Bam gives the order for Hanool to heal him since he has some medical expertise, which Hanool agrees to do. In the meantime, Daniel thinks to himself that what Aka just claimed is silly since back then, none of them should have died.
At that same time, Akraptor, Prince, Miseng, Blarode, and Quaetro, continue to remain inside their Hell Train cage floating within complete darkness. Prince remains staring at the darkness, which Akraptor asks why Prince is still looking since they've already established that there's nothing there. Miseng adds that Prince looks like someone who's finally lost it, but Prince makes it clear to the group that he definitely saw something.
He informs the group that he definitely saw something white move in the darkness, but can't seem to locate where it went. Thinking about what he saw, Prince was sure of it that the white dot looked like a person covered in white shinsu.
At another location, Hoaqin is seen walking on his own through the pipe maze until he reaches a door that he believes to be the location of the engine core room. Grabbing the door's handle, Hoaqin thinks to himself that he can feel a very familiar sensation behind it, and deduces that his final sibling for White's resurrection is definitely behind it. Opening the door, Hoaqin wonders who the only survivors left for his faction could be, and sees within the engine core room that only Rachel and Yura remain. Rachel and Yura turn their attention to Hoaqin, which the latter is surprised to see that the Slayer Candidate has gotten taller. In return, Hoaqin gives off a laugh finding it pathetic that only two of his teammates remain. He asks if only the two of them being here means that everyone else died off, which causes Rachel to begin to explain to him what's going on.
Meanwhile, Poro realizes that Hoaqin has made it to the engine core room, and slams his fist down in anger. Poro calls Hoaqin a devil believing that it was clear as day he backstabbed Daniel, and concludes that his only hope now is for Jue Viole Grace to come out the winner of the Third Round. Nearby, Bam's group are close to reaching the engine core area. Hanool is seen carrying Daniel with them, which Bam asks how the latter is holding up. Despite obviously sweating in pain from the hit he took from Hoaqin earlier, Daniel asks Viole not to worry about him, and just put the big guy in the back to sleep.
Turning around, Bam sees that Daniel is referring to Aka, who is trying to follow along being help up by his two loyal subordinates. One of the subordinates advises Aka to use this chance to drop out of the game since the latter is in no condition to continue playing. However, Aka remains said subordinate that he can't rest after coming this far due to having lost Moontari in the Second Round. He tells his two subordinates that he doesn't plan to give up just yet as Bam and company make it to the engine core room. Here, they're greeted by Khun's Sweetfish group, who arrived first. Bam, Khun, and Rak, greet one another as the two groups gather.
In the background, Bero is seen reuniting with her only remaining teammate, Cherry La. Bam runs up to Khun and Rak, and tells them that he's glad their groups made it here. Khun admits that them getting here was pretty lucky (referring to the coin-toss game), but replies back to Bam that compared to his side, it looks like something major happened regarding Bam's group. Bam sadly answers that several people died while others ended up getting hurt. He then provides even more bad news that they failed to stop Hoaqin from becoming one with his siblings. Meanwhile, the tearful Bero is glad to see that Cherry is alive, which the latter states that she understands what's going on.
Khun thinks over the situation, and now understands that the reason Hoaqin didn't go after the Sweetfish group was because Bam's side was currently fighting him. He admits that he's thankful to Bam for this since keeping Hoaqin preoccupied allowed his Sweetfish group to get to the end without any deaths. Bam also provides Khun's Sweetfish group one more piece of information that's really important. He informs them that Hoaqin's true identity is a FUG Slayer, which completely shocks Khun.
Khun asks if Bam is serious here, which Bam states that he is, and that the FUG Slayer name that Hoaqin goes by is known as White. Rak asks if White is something he could eat, but Bam apologizes to them claiming that he wouldn't have dragged them into this mess if he had known how powerful their Hell Train enemy was going to be. Bam also warns them of the major spell that Hoaqin's going to perform to eat all the people currently alive on the Hell Train, but Khun reassures Bam that at this point, none of that matters at the moment. Khun reminds Bam that since there's still one sibling left to absorb, they still have a chance against Hoaqin since he's still just another Regular. However, he admits that the soul-eating spell could pose a problem if they allow it to reach that point. Khun warns the group that if Hoaqin does indeed manage to return to his complete White form, then they will have to stop him from eating everyone within the Hell Train at all costs.
Meanwhile, Rachel finishes explaining everything that happened to Hoaqin, who finds it disappointing that not only are there only two members left, but is amazed that Rachel's group couldn't even kill the Sweetfish. Finding this all unbelievable, Hoaqin scolds Rachel claiming that she has some nerve showing up here despite her constant failures. He leaves off calling Rachel and Yura useless, which leaves Rachel silent.
Rachel thinks back to the moment after her side lost all the Dallars in the coin-toss match with Khun. He passes off a single Dallar to her claiming that he's decided to offer the same thing to Rachel what she offered to him during the second coin-toss.
Khun also informs Rachel that he's going to leave a Dallar to Yura as well. Khun explains his plan that he doesn't care if Rachel decides to keep playing, or give up. However, Khun adds that if Rachel continues playing, and still ends up losing the Third Round, then she will have to tell him everything she knows about Bam's past. He orders Rachel to make her choice.
At that same time, Train Conductor Pedro is seen looking through information on a screen, and warns Yuri and Evan that the winner of this Slayer Candidate game is about to be decided. He asks if Princess Yuri is nervous about what's going to happen for the Third Round, but she quickly answers that she isn't. Yuri and Evan are seen having made seats for themselves, and are now wearing 3d-glasses, and eating snacks, as if they're in a movie theatre. She says back to Pedro to just sit tight until the Dallar Show is over since she could easily kill him within ten seconds. A moment later, Poro stands on his referee platform above the engine core informing the Viole and Hoaqin factions that everyone still alive has now gathered here.
Poro then tells the two factions that it's now time for them to begin the Third, and final, Round of the Dallar Show. Showing the massive screen like usual, Poro is about to inform the Bam and Hoaqin factions the name of the final game where they will put both their Dallars and lives on the line. However, a voice is heard from the right asking for Poro to wait a minute since there's one more important participant that hasn't been introduced. Poro turns to his right asking who the newcomer is, and sees a girl with white-hair, which catches Bam and Hoaqin's attention as well.
Bam is left wondering if this is perhaps White's final sibling, which the white-haired girl, giving off a grin, answers Poro's question that she's the last remaining puzzle piece for this Dallar Show game. Seeing the white-haired girl floating in front of him, Poro asks if this means that the former is Hoaqin's last remaining sibling who hasn't been reabsorbed. However, an enraged Hoaqin asks for Poro to not say such ridiculous things since there's no sibling of his that looks like this white-haired girl. Hearing Hoaqin claim that the white-haired girl isn't White's last piece grabs Khun's attention wondering what's going on.
The white-haired girl turns her attention to Hoaqin stating that he must be able to feel the tremendous power flowing within her. She then states that Hoaqin has to accept that she wouldn't have such power if she wasn't one of his clones. As a result, she claims that she is indeed the final White piece. Meanwhile, Yuri and Evan continue to watch the interlude before the start of the Dallar Show's Third Round.
Yuri points out how odd it is that another white-haired sibling has appeared, but Evan is left in a state of shock unable to believe what he's seeing. He informs Yuri that the new-girl is giving off tremendous power. Evan asks Yuri who this new white-haired girl is supposed to be since she's given of such incredible power to the point where she may even be higher than a Ranker. He asks how this is possible for a simple Regular to have such strength, but Yuri looks behind her at Pedro, and calls him a wicked bastard. Seeing Pedro give off a smirk, Yuri knows right away that the Train Conductor had something to do with this hiding the white-girl away within the Hell Train.
Back to the train engine core, Hoaqin asks what the white-haired girl means by claiming he's one of his clones. She states once more that she's indeed the final clone that will fit as the last piece to resurrect the FUG Slayer, White. At this point, the white-haired girl teleports herself to appear at Bam's location, and asks if he's the Slayer Candidate, Jue Viole Grace, who will be fighting against Hoaqin.
She then takes a closer look at Bam realizing that he's indeed a Slayer Candidate, but points out how he looks like someone too kind to be roaming around in that kind of darkness. Khun, Rak, as well as Ehwa, complain to the white-girl to get back asking what she's doing to Bam. However, the white-girl quickly teleports herself back over to Poro asking the Train Administrator what's with this rowdy bunch.
Claiming that this looks fun, the white-haired girl asks to let her join in on this game as well, which confuses Poro. She states that the rule will be that after watching how the group performs in the game, she will join the side she likes. The white-haired girl asks if Poro will be ok with this, but Poro remains unable to properly answer her.
Hoaqin yells out his complaint asking what she's talking about since it's obvious she should side with him if she's indeed one of his clones. However, she orders Hoaqin to shut up, and deducts five points from him, which confuses Hoaqin even further.
She explains that while she is indeed one of White's clones, she never stated that she was on Hoaqin's side. Hoaqin remains shocked in silence as the white-haired girl continues to explain that she knows full well the kind of stuff Hoaqin pulled to get to where he is today, and warns Hoaqin that he needs to prove that he has the right to possess the power she has within her.
Turning back to Poro, the white-haired girl asks once more if he's ok with her joining. She informs him that she already talked it out with the FUG people aboard the Hell Train, and assures Poro that she will keep the promise that Poro and FUG have made to her. Realizing she's talking about Roen, Poro agrees to allow the white-haired girl to take part. Poro makes the announcement that a Game Intrusion for the next game will be implemented where the white-haired girl will get to choose which side to fight for, which enrages Hoaqin not understanding why this is happening.
Getting back to the subject at hand, Poro starts up the announcement once more as to what the final game for the Dallar Show will be. Showing the image of a blue-filled circle with a metal-like background around it on the giant screen, Poro states that the game is known as Go to Hell. Bam and Hoaqin look over the picture wondering what the game will be like.
Poro begins to explain the rules with the first step being to show up the hostages that will be used for the Go to Hell game. The sight of the gray cage above him shocks Bam as he sees the Akraptor, Prince, Miseng, Blarode, and Quaetro, group within it. Prince calls out to Viole realizing that he's finally seeing familiar faces below him as Poro explains that these are the hostages from Jue Viole Grace's faction. Poro then points the contestants at the next cage, which will act as the hostages for Hoaqin's faction. Hoaqin, Rachel, and Yura, look up at their cage, and see their missing teammates, Buelsar, Angel, Cassano, and Traveller, within it. Hoaqin gives off a laugh finding it incredibly amusing that this Third Round game thinks he has use for hostages that are nothing more than sacks of skin.
Prince and Miseng continue to call out to Viole happy to see him as Poro explains the main rule of the game. That Viole and Hoaqin will use Dallars to compete with one another to either save or forsake the lives of their hostages. The rule leaves Khun and Rachel shocked to hear that the lives of their comrades are on the line. Revealing a green-colored circle entrance next to Poro, the Train Administrator explains that this object is known as the Submarine of Death, which will be used for the Third Round. Poro explains that once the game starts, hostages from each side will be put into the Submarine of Death one at a time, and will travel through the pipe until it reaches the end. He also points out that the submarine tunnel is a spiral pipe that continues downward until it reaches the bottom.
However, Poro warns the contestants that at the bottom of the spiral pipe is a pool filled with a boiling substance. The Train Administrator warns Viole and Hoaqin that should a hostage reach the bottom of the Submarine of Death, and fall into the substance, then the hostage will quickly melt away to the point of disappearing. Prince, fearing for his life, asks what Poro means by disappearing, which Poro states that it basically means death, which shocks Prince. He continues to complain that Poro shouldn't be playing with peoples lives as Miseng tries to calm her teammate down. In the meantime, Bam begins to sweat realizing what's now at stake in this game. Poro however, states that this is where Hoaqin and Viole enter the picture as a way to save the hostages who fall through the Submarine of Death.
He explains that the two Slayer Candidates will stand atop a platform made of shinsu above the spiral pipe. Once a hostage is sent into the Submarine of Death, Viole and Hoaqin can choose to descend through the larger central pipe that goes through the middle of the spiral pipe in an attempt to save the hostage from reaching the boiling substance. Poro adds to the explanation that both Hoaqin and Viole can choose to descend to save a hostage at once, and during the fall, any means of combat between the two Slayer Candidates is allowed up until the hostage is either saved or dies. However, Poro states that this is the point where the Dallars come into play. The Train Administrator explains that the number of Dallars required to save a hostage depends on the current position that the hostage is at within the Submarine of Death. It will cost a high amount of Dallars if a hostage is saved early in the pipe spiral, but the cost will continue to decrease as the hostage gets closer to the boiling substance at the bottom.
Poro then switches over to another variable of the game known as the Submarine of Choice. Explaining the Submarine of Choice, Poro states that it will show images similar to the hostages currently within the Submarine of Death. Poro adds that during the Third Round, two Regulars will be selected from each team to enter the location of the Submarine of Choice.
Once the two Regulars are within the Submarine of Death, these two Regulars will be provided two choices. The first choice is for either Viole and Hoaqin to choose when to free the hostage from the pipe spiral by opening up one of the spiral's exits. The other thing Viole and Hoaqin need to consider is the Height of the Boiling Substance within the central pipe of the pipe spiral.
Poro explains that it will cost ten Dallars to free a hostage. However, it will also cost an extra five Dallars for every space within the Submarine of Death that is either raised or lowered. Poro warns Viole and Hoaqin that they could enter the pipe to save a hostage, but if the Height of the Boiling Substance doesn't match with the timing of their rescue due to the substance being a lot higher than they thought, then the hostage will end up falling into the boiling substance, and die. Continuing the game explanation, Poro states that a team will be rewarded Ten Dallars for every hostage that is saved.
However, should they lose, there will be no Dallar reward, and will obviously result in the death of one of their comrades. Poro announces that as a result, this game is based on a battle of diving and timing while their lives are on the line. Khun finds this entire game to be ridiculous while Rachel notes that only one deathmatch at a time seems to be going down.
Poro then announces that each team will be provided three chances to save their hostages, and that whichever side saves more after three rounds will be declared the winner. He also adds that should Viole's or Hoaqin's faction run out of Dallars before the other, then they will automatically be declared the loser of the Dallar Show. Thinking over how this is a game with hostages on the line, Hoaqin admits that they came up with something interesting. With all that said, Poro announces that it's now time to begin the game with the first hostage being from Viole's faction, which surprises Prince and Miseng.
With the game having officially begun, Prince is teleported out of the cage being chosen as the first hostage for Viole's faction, which surprises Miseng and Akraptor. Prince reappears inside the entrance of the Submarine of Death as he's heard complaining about what's going on, and orders someone to help him out. From atop their shinsu platforms, Bam and Hoaqin watch Prince's pointless struggle from outside the pipe spiral. Thinking of an image of Prince melting apart in the boiling substance, Bam begins to sweat knowing that should he fail here, it will result in Prince's death. Poro asks the two factions to use this time to choice their Regular that will be placed within the Submarine of Choice.
On Hoaqin's side, Rachel states that she will do it, which confuses the Slayer Candidate. He informs Rachel that he doesn't trust her enough at this point, but Rachel begs him to give her one more chance. Rachel swears that she will be of help this time around, and asks for Hoaqin to trust her. Meanwhile on Bam's side, Khun gives off a smile offering to go hoping that no one will oppose, which everyone stays silent letting Khun do what he wants. Rak adds that he doesn't mind, but states that Khun sucks.
A moment later, Khun and Rachel both arrive at the Submarine of Choice. Khun greets Rachel stating that it seems the two of them have met once more, but Rachel orders him to cut the crap, and just get into the Submarine of Choice. Khun agrees to do so, but jokes that Rachel must need help getting in since her legs must hurt, which enrages Rachel replying back that she doesn't need help. Rachel and Khun enter the Submarine of Choice, and see the table with two chairs that they will be sitting at across from one another.
Khun taunts Rachel finding it hard to believe that under these circumstances, Rachel would be able to beat him. He admits that he wasn't expecting Rachel to challenge him once more, and doesn't understand if this is Rachel just being reckless or stubborn. However, Khun reminds her that he doesn't care about any of that since all he wants to know is what she knows about Bam's past. Khun continues to taunt Rachel claiming that Bam's faction has way more Dallars since they've come out the winners in the First and Second Round of the Dallar Show. He asks if Rachel still has some kind of plan to come out the winner, which Rachel orders Khun to stop acting innocent since even he should already know full-well that this match is going to be completely unfavorable for Bam.
Rachel points out to Khun how this is going to be a game where Dallar bets will be made over the lives of the companions between the two Slayer Candidates. However, she informs Khun that Hoaqin is the type of person who will boldly abandon his current companions when he deems it necessary. Given how much she knows Bam, he warns Khun that he is someone who will be unable to perform such an act, and as a result, there will be no way for Bam to come out the winner of this game.
Returning to above the Submarine of Death, Poro announces that since the squared exponent mechanic no longer applies beyond the Second Round, Jue Viole Grace's faction currently has 112 Dallars while Hoaqin's faction has 22 Dallars. Poro also reaminds the two Slayer Candidates that should one side lose all their Dallars, the opposing team will be declared the winner. Knowing that, Poro warns Viole and Hoaqin to use their Dallars wisely.
Prince voice from within the Submarine of Death's entrance is heard continuing to call out to someone for help, and asks how people could dare trap someone such as him within it. He claims that he's someone who even made the Irregular, Urek Mazino, piss his pants, but Prince is suddenly interrupted by Poro yelling out that the lowering of the first hostage will now begin. Thrown from the entrance, Prince begins to fall descending through the spiral pipe yelling out in tears for someone to save him. Hearing Prince call out to Viole to save him amuses Hoaqin calling the falling Regular a poor and desperate little boy.
Poro announces to Viole and Hoaqin that once Prince has descended to below having to pay above 100 Dallars to perform the rescue, he will begin the counter. Viole begins to sweat in tension as Hoaqin taunts the former that he should go save his companion, or else Prince will end up dying. Hoaqin then taunts Viole asking if he should just go down and end Prince's torment himself as the Dallar amount to perform the rescue decreases from 95, to 90, to 85, to 75.
Meanwhile within the Submarine of Choice, Khun now sits opposite Rachel, which he admits to himself that what she said about Bam earlier was correct. He thinks over how the game is designed for one to make cold-hearted choices regarding the lives of companions, which results in Bam being at a disadvantage since he values the lives of his companions more than his own.
The Dallar amount to save Prince drops to 65 as Khun thinks over how there's a limit to the number of Dallars they need to utilize for each rescue if Bam plans to save everyone. Khun begins to fear that Bam may make a huge mistake trying to rush the rescue, which would result in everyone dying because he ended up trying to save one person way too early.
As Prince continues to fall through the spiral pipe, the Dallar amount decreases to 60, and then 55. Khun hopes that Bam will hold off until the very limit as Prince continues to scream out in terror. The Dallars continues to decrease from 50 to 45 as the sweating Bam hears Prince calling out once more to him for help. Bam is able to deduce that he can't perform the rescue too early, or else their defeat is set. The Dallars decrease once more from 40 to 35 as the white-haired girl watching over the game is left wondering how capable the Slayer Candidate boy will be at handling this situation. Meanwhile, at Yuri and Evan's location watching over the Slayer Candidate game, Pedro congratulates the Princess for finally noticing that he and FUG have been hiding something on the Hell Train.
Pedro admits that they have indeed been hiding something from her, and explains that the white-haired Regulars Yuri and Evan are seeing aren't just ordinary Regulars. He reveals to the two of them that they're siblings that made up a FUG Slayer who disappeared long ago, and that Hoaqin, the white-haired person they see before them, is collecting the soul fragments in order to return to said FUG Slayer, who is known as White.
The mention of the old FUG Slayer grabs Yuri's attention as Pedro explains that White was a cruel being who treated human life as if it was a toy. He warns Yuri that should Viole lose the match here, it will result in the demon, White, being fully revived. Getting up from her chair, Yuri orders Pedro to tell if if the White person he's talking about is the insanely murderous FUG Slayer from awhile back, which Pedro answers to be the case. He points out that White was known as the tenth FUG Slayer, and states that given how Yuri is a Jahad Princess of the Great Ha Family, she should know full-well what White was like.
Pedro continues his story about White that the FUG Slayer was infamous back then for pulling off all kinds of cruel and heinous deeds. However, after repeatdly mass murdering and cursing civilians within the Tower, he was one day greeted by a Jahad Princess. Said Princess ended up defeating White, which resulted in White going into hiding somewhere within the Tower. He then informs Yuri that it was a big mystery within FUG wondering if White had died off or not, but they discovered some time after that White had actually gotten himself sealed within the Hell Train. Pointing Yuri in the direction of Hoaqin, he tells her that said Regular is what White turned into on the Hell Train.
Pedro then points Yuri in the direction of the white-haired girl floating next to Poro, and warns the Princess that should Hoaqin combine with that final clone, he will reclaim all the power he lost to the Jahad Princess back then, and finally return to his White FUG Slayer form. Yuri finds this story ridiculous since she's never heard of a case where a person who climbed the Tower and became a Ranker would suddenly lose their power and be turned back into a Regular again. However, Pedro states that such a case has indeed happened since the Tower world they currently live in is known for having many strange and unusual things occur.
Evan is the next to object to all this asking if Pedro really thinks the Train Conductor will be able to get away with pulling this kind of stunt while no one's watching. The guide points out how this bet with Yuri was ridiculous from the start since it was such a lopsided battle putting a former FUG Slayer Ranker up against someone who still has the level of a Regular. However, Pedro informs him that this case is alright, which confuses Evan to the point of calling the Train Conductor a con man. Pedro explains that the current match has no problems on the surface since Viole and Hoaqin are currently both considered just D-rank Regulars. He also reminds Yuri and Evan that they have no say in this since the Train Conductor has the authority to run the tests within the Hell Train.
Pedro threatens Yuri and Evan that based on the Tower rules, there's only two people here who are technically breaking the rules, and that's the two of them for breaking into the Hell Train. Yuri and Evan are unable to say anything as Pedro taunts the Jahad Princess that it was her fault entirely for accepting his bet, but Yuri replies back that Pedro has turned this into something major to the point it can't be stopped.
She warns Pedro that the Jahad Princesses can easily step in to stop this abuse of power since it involves the possible return of a FUG Slayer, and while Pedro understands that, he informs her that she still can't do anything about it since it requires approval from the Jahad and the Ten Great Families to step in.
The Train Conductor questions Yuri how she plans to get approval from Jahad when it should already be obvious to her that no contact can be made to the outside from within the Hell Train. Pedro gives off a laugh, and informs Yuri that no matter what, it's been set for Viole to lose this game. He then threatens Yuri and Evan that both of them will end up dying here anyway for violating the rules of the Tower; all for the sake of resurrecting White in his complete form. Pedro goes about claiming that this is the perfect plan since now only will White successfully be resurrected, it also resulted in the death of one of Jahad's Princesses.
Seeing Pedro continue to laugh irritates Yuri to the point of thinking he's nothing more than a complete jerk she wants to smack. However, she reveals to Pedro that she already has approval from Jahad and the Ten Great Families to interrupt here, which confuses Pedro. Showing off the 3d movie-glasses she and Evan put on, Yuri explains how it's got a record-and-send function regarding everything Pedro just said, and was sent to the Jahad Empire.
Pedro finds the claim to be silly since it's still considered to be impossible to get a transmission out from within the Hell Train. Evan thinks to himself how nervous he was that Pedro would catch on to their glasses as he informs the Train Conductor that such a case is definitely possible since the person who sent them here (Princess Repellista) happens to be a major geek. He also warns Pedro that he recorded everything over the glasses as evidence to prove to the Jahad Empire what FUG was planning here.
Yuri warns Pedro that he's someone who should already know what their glasses are connected to, which is the Infinite Eye that is known as the greatest being within the Tower. As a result, they're using a method of communication that not even the great Hell Train will be able to close off. She reveals that said communcation is a lighthouse technique known as the Opera, which a shocked Pedro finally realizes that the geek Evan was talking about is Princess Repellisa Jahad.
Yuri reveals to Pedro that their geek friend has already received and processed the whole report regarding this situation. She then begins to crack her knuckles claiming that the Jahad Empire has already issued a Punitive Order to clean up this problem. Yuri then warns Pedro that even if the Train Conductor tries to kick her out of the Hell Train, she will still have the authority to stop him from abusing power. She claims that while their best is still on, they will have to change up the order a bit due to how the way things currently are.
Prepared to fight, Yuri threatens Pedro claiming that she plans to smash him to bits in order to make the robot-eye freak before her reveal Bam's Hell Train location. Pedro begins to get irritated as Yuri orders the Train Conductor to stand up asking when he will stop acting so tough since he's always just sitting in that conductor chair of his. In return, Pedro finally stands up off his chair as shinsu swarms all around him. He warns Yuri that she's put him in a very difficult situation as Yuri replies back that it's his turn to fight.
At that same time, the Third Round of the Dallar Show continues where Prince's fall has dropped from 40 Dallars to 35. Bam and Hoaqin continue to stand opposite one another above the Submarine of Death as a tearful Prince calls out to Viole begging for help. Bam goes over the current situation knowing that Hoaqin only has 22 total Dallars to spend, so it will be hard for him to perform a costly rescue more than one. Bam figures that Hoaqin will most likely not want to try to perform a rescue with a lot of Dallars on the first attempt, but is left worried if Hoaqin does indeed decide to go. With time running out, Bam wonders if he's going to come up with a decision too late, which could end up resulting in Prince's death.
However, Bam concludes that overall, these kind of predications are meaningless. Prince's descent through the pipe spiral falls to 30 Dallars as Bam decides that the wait is long enough, and pays the amount. Poro announces that Jue Viole Grace has decided to pay at the 30 Dallar marker as Bam enters into the Submarine of Death to save Prince. Going into the central pipe, Bam thinks to himself that it's not worth risking someone's life over something as stupid as probability. The rest of Bam's group realizes that Bam has chosen to spend 30 Dallars to save Prince as Hoaqin gives off a laugh looking down at his fellow Slayer Candidate. As Bam heads down, Khun thinks over how 30 Dallars was a bit too early, but Rachel admits that at the very least, Bam tried to wait it out.
Meanwhile, the white-haired girl wonders if Hoaqin will follow after Bam. Prince's drop reaches the 25 mark as Bam continues to make his way through the central pipe. Hoaqin continues to laugh admitting that he wasn't expecting Viole to go as early as the 30 Dallar mark. Prince's fall then reaches 20 as Khun thinks over how Bam had probably decided from the start to get moving once Prince's descent reached 30 Dallars. However, he concludes that if Hoaqin doesn't decide to go down either, then they may end up losing a good amount of Dallars on just the first round alone. Prince's fall reaches 15 as Bam continues to make his way down the central pipe. Bam yells out to Khun to open up the Submarine of Death's central pipe exit door the moment Prince's fall reaches 10.
At that moment, Khun presses the Open button within the Submarine of Choice as an announcement is made that Viole's team has made the ten Dallar payment, and that the Submarine door will now open. Prince is seen still screaming out in fear, but is finally grabbed by Bam having finally reached his Tangsooyook teammate's location. The announcement is made that Viole's team has successfully saved their hostage as Prince continues to breath heavily trying to catch his breath. Including being rewarded ten Dallars for the successful rescue, Bam is offered a congratulation announcemnet for saving the first hostage as Akraptor, Miseng and Quaetro call out to Prince glad to see that the latter is ok.
Within the Submarine of Choice, Rachel congrulates Khun for managing to save their companion, but points out how spending 30 Dallars seemed like a pretty big cost right off the bat. Khun replies back that it's because they've got a huge advantage over the Hoaqin faction, who has just 22 Dallars to spend.
However, Rachel informs him that it still won't be enough, which confuses Khun. Rachel gives off a laugh at Khun trying to play dumb stating that he knows exactly what Rachel is referring to. That Bam is someone who isn't as cold-hearted as Khun.
In the meantime, Prince is seen being floated up to the rest of Bam's group within a ball of shinsu, which excites Ehwa seeing that her Tangsooyook teammate made it out fine. The exhausted Bam then returns to the shinsu platform above the Submarine of Death, and stands opposite Hoaqin once more. Hoaqin taunts Viole that the latter's effort was impressive despite looking so physically weakened, and yet he was able to save Prince anyway at the cost of just 30 Dallars. He points out how 120 divided by 3 is 40, and wonders if this means that Bam is attempting to actually try to save all three of his hostages. As a result, Hoaqin calls Bam such a merciful person.
At Bam's group, Ehwa heads over to check on Prince, who is annoyed by this whole situation asking himself why it was only him that has been humiliated. Nearby, Bero thinks over the current state of the game asking if spending 30 Dallars was a good amount, which Cherry answers that it makes sense since there's three hostages that Bam wishes to save. However, Rak continues to watch the game in silence knowing that Bam is the kind of person who's probably going to do something else.
Poro announces that it's now time to lower a member from Hoaqin's team as Cassano and Traveller watch Buelsar get teleported from their cage, and into the Submarine of Death entrance. Sachi asks if he's seeing who he thinks he's seeing, which Boro answers that it's the skilled fisherman Mad Dog from Hoaqin's faction. They question if Hoaqin will actually go down into the pipe spiral to save such a teammate. Bam looks down at the Spiral of Death in silence knowing that the Mad Dog is the next hostage as the unconscious Angel within the Hoaqin Team's cage is heard saying a few words begging Buelsar not to die.
A moment later, Poro announces that the hostage descent for Hoaqin's faction will now start as Buelsar begins to fall through the spiral pipe. As Bam stands opposite of Hoaqin, the latter asks the former if Jue Viole Grace knows what a monarch is. Seeing Bam's confusion, Hoaqin explains that back when he was a FUG Slayer, he was known as the King of two different cultural areas in the Outer Tower.
Hoaqin points out how in one of said lands, it was ruled by a corrupt and rotten ruler who was hated by everyone. As a result, Hoaqin one day slit the ruler's throat, and naturally became the new King due to everyone in the land praising him for ousting the rotten one. Hoaqin gloats how back then, he acted like a really good king since he looked after the poor, and executed any greedy officials.
He remembers of how the land bowed down to his might, and that the people often sang of his greatness. Hoaqin then one day decided to step away from the land, and disappeared after naming a loyal follower the new King. Soon after, the people recorded Hoaqin's name in their myths, and began to worship Hoaqin as if he was their god.
Continuing the story to Bam, Hoaqin reveals that he had actually been keeping an eye on that land for a very long time after disappearing. He explains how the land got more powerful and expansive, but at the same time, new arrogant kings and rulers took over while Hoaqin was away. As a result, the people began to suffer from hunger and starvation the more the rulers satisfied their own greed. He explains how funny the land turned out to be since the rulers were nothing but pigs who divided people into classes, and hoarded the wealth for themselves. An exact event between the rotten king and his servants that Hoaqin ousted when he first came to the land.
As a result, Hoaqin claims that he chose to unite the poor again, and made a new country, which confuses Bam. Hoaqin explains that the poor people of the land didn't know of his real identity as the original hero King, and instead spoke as if the original Hoaqin King was his inspiration to overthrow the current corrupted rulership. As a result, Hoaqin led the poor, and ragged, people of the land to stand up against the new rotten rulers once more. Hoaqin continues to explain that the rebellion he created grew to be so big, that it began to pose a threat to the land, and in the end, the two countries Hoaqin created ended up resenting each other.
Following the creation of the two countries, they began to wage endless war on one another knowing nothing more than hatred and pain, as well as never knowing the concept of reconciliation or forgiveness. Hoaqin admits that there were several times where the two countries tried to stop the endless war, but every time that moment occurred, he stepped in to make sure that no matter what, the two countries continued to hate one another.
Hoaqin explains how certain events kept the war going on, like the unfair death of a war hero, or raping and slandering of innocent women, but the most effective thing of all was the countries two separate beliefs in their Hoaqin savior. Bam is left unable to believe anything he's hearing as Hoaqin sums it up in simplier words. That whenever there was a sign of peace between the two countries, he would appear once more, and say to his beloved ones to continue fighting for their god as the enemy is nothing more than demons and monsters. At this point, the Dallar count for Bueslar's descent through the Submarine of Death begins dropping from 100 to 95. The white-haired girl is seen listening to Hoaqin's story as well.
Hoaqin claims that the result of the two countries always fighting was how the death count at the hands of Hoaqin rose to about a billion. Thinking back to how incredible that feeling was, Hoaqin tells Bam that the taste of those souls who were consumed by desperation, torment, and rage, was the ultimate taste. Buelsar's Dallar count drops from 90 to 85 as Bam asks if this was all Hoaqin's plan from the very beginning, which Hoaqin answers that of course it was. Hoaqin begins to get irritated explaining that he spent so long creating the perfect situation where he would suck up all the souls of the billion people that died in the war between the two countries. He reveals that he put a powerful spell upon the two countries, but if it wasn't for the damn interruption of the Jahad Princess, he would have obtained a power that would establish him as the most powerful God in the entire world. Meanwhile, Buelsar's Dallar count continues to drop from 80 to 75 as he falls through the spiral pipe. Giving off a smile, Hoaqin asks Viole if his story sounds cruel, but points out that this is reality since a monarch's power takes advantage of the rage and stupidity of the masses. Buelsar's Dallar count then drops from 70 to 65.
Hoaqin claims to Viole that the birth of a great absolute ruler requires the sacrifice of many lives, and points out that Jue Viole Grace can never be a FUG Slayer until he realizes that. As Buelsar's Dallar count drops to 60, Hoaqin states that it's a shame about his Mad Dog teammate since there's nothing he will do about it. He informs Viole that for the sake of his victory to return as White, he's not going to save Buelsar, which confuses Bam.
Hoaqin explains that Buelsar of the Mad Dogs is nothing more than a dispensable item who exists to bring about victory for the absolute rulers, such as himself. As Buelsar's Dallar count drops from 50 to 40, a mass of power is seen beginning to emerge off of Bam's Thorn. The mass of power catches Sachi's attention, which causes Boro to ask what caught said teammate's attention. Buelsar's Dallar count drops to 35 as Sachi remains confused over this situation wondering what on earth is going on with the boy who holds the Thorn. Reaching 30 for Buelsar's Dallar count, Sachi could tell that something within Bam was growing.
Dropping to 25 for Buelsar's Dallar count, Bam orders Hoaqin to take back what the latter said about Buelsar being dispensable for the sake of his victory. He orders Hoaqin once more to take it back, and reminds Hoaqin that Buelsar is someone who fought for said Slayer Candidate. Buelsar's Dallar count drops from 20 to 15 as Bam yells out to that Buelsar put his life on the line to fight for a piece of trash like Hoaqin. As Buelsar's Dallar count drops to 10, Sachi confirms that what is growing within Bam is extreme bloodlust. Hoaqin asks what Viole is talking about as an announcement is made that the Third Round game will start counting down by 1 now that Buelsar has passed the 10 Dallar mark.
Bam tells Hoaqin once more that he's nothing but total trash, and asks how he can just go about justifying other people's suffering and sacrifice with such a poor story. At 9 Dallars remaining, the white-haired girl listens closely as Bam claims that Hoaqin is just rationalizing himself with a flimsy excuse, and yells that no one in this world deserves to be sacrificed to someone like him.
The Dallar count drops from 8 to 7 as Hoaqin asks why any of that matters. He then asks what Viole believes he can do about it as Buelsar drops to 6 Dallars. Bam answers that he will save his opponent's hostage as he leaves the shinsu platform to enter the Submarine of Death once Buelsar's Dallar count hit 5 Dallars. Khun remains confused by what Bam is doing as both Rachel and Rak confirm that what they were thinking earlier was indeed the case. Buelsar's Dallar count drops to 4 as Khun yells out for Bam not to go since it's a hostage of the other team. Watching Bam explode down the central pipe surprises Hoaqin seeing that Viole has gotten much faster than a few minutes ago when he saved Prince. Sachi and Boro yell out in confusion what's going on since Bam dropped in order to save one of the enemy.
Buelsar's Dallar count drops to 3 as Khun continues to hope for Bam not to do it, and that even if he agreed with him to save Buelsar, it's too late at this point. The Dallar count drops to 2, but Bam's incredibly fast descent surprises everyone. Khun worries that Bam is pushing it too far, and deduces that there's no saving Bam if Rachel presses the button in the Submarine of Choice to raise the Boiling Acid at the last second. Bam calls out to Khun to open the Submarine of Death exit, but Khun thinks over in frustration that he can't do it as it will force them to give up another ten Dallars to save a hostage that isn't even on their side.
Buelsar's Dallar count drops to 1 as Khun hopes in his mind that Rachel will not use this chance to raise the height of the Boiling Acid. Khun begs to himself not to make his finger press the Open button, but yelling out in anger, Khun is forced to press it. The Submarine of Death exit opens as the announcement is made that Team Viole has paid ten Dallars, which shocks Bero. Rak also realizes that Khun was forced to do something that he knows the blue turtle didn't wish he would do. Bam comes flying into the spiral pipe, and manages to catch Buelsar inches before reaching the boiling substance. The announcement is made that the hostage of Hoaqin's team has been saved.
Watching what just unfolded, Boro and Sachi remain confused as to what's going on witnessing Bam save someone from the opposing team. The girl with the white-hair is also left confused by the action while Hwaryun continues to watch over the match in silence. A congratulation announcement, and a ten Dallar reward, is rewarded to Hoaqin's team for successfully saving their hostage as Cassano is seen giving off a smile. Rak states that he knew this was going to happen saying that this is typical of the black turtle knowing what Bam is like.
Holding onto Buelsar, Bam remains standing on his shinsu platform floating right above the boiling substance as he uses this moment to catch his breath. Khun is seen now holding his head in frustration finding it unbelievable that Bam actually did this, and says that this is exactly what he was afraid of since the beginning of this game. Rachel says once more that this is what makes Bam different than Khun since she knows that her old friend is someone who can't sit back and watch someone die, even if that person is an enemy. However, she points out how surprised she was that Khun actually chose to open up the Submarine of Death exit, and jokes if Bam's kindness is perhaps a bit contagious.
Holding onto his head to go along with Rachel's joke, Khun still can't believe that he made that choice opening the exit. He claims that being too nice isn't good for his heart, which Rachel informs him that regretting what he did isn't going to make that choice go away. However, Khun orders her to shut up, and points out how Rachel didn't use this chance to try to kill Bam by paying Ten Dallars to raise the Boiling Acid. Rachel remains silent as Khun asks why Rachel chose not to do it. He finds it suspicious that Rachel would suddenly get sentimental, and asks what she's truly after regarding Bam.
As Bam returns to the shinsu platform to stand opposite Hoaqin again, Khun calls out Rachel for being someone who was previously trying so hard to kill Bam, and yet she didn't choose to do it this time around. He asks if Rachel truly hates Bam, and orders her to make up her mind since none of what she's doing currently makes any sense. Khun admits that Rachel can't tell what Rachel is after since her actions have always been so ambiguous, but he also warns her to stop trying to use Bam for her own benefit. Rachel replies back that all her actions have been completely serious, and that she's someone who doesn't want Bam to follow after her either.
Khun remains unable to say anything as Rachel reminds him that Bam is someone who followed after her on his own will. Clenching his fist in frustration, Khun decides that he will try something different from here on out. Khun informs Rachel that no matter what decision Bam makes in this game from here on out, he will follow through with those decisions no matter what. Bam is seen breathing in exhaustion preparing himself for the next hostage drop that will be for his side. Boro asks if Sachi understands why Bam chose to save an enemy, which Sachi admits that he's not sure yet.
Sachi theorizes that Bam probably just forgot about the game not liking the thought of someone dying, but he also informs Boro that one thing is for sure. That Bam got a lot quicker this time around compared to his first descent when he saved Prince. Sachi admits that this case is a bit strange since he would have thought that Bam would be really tired at this point. However, Sachi concludes that it's possible that the extreme bloodlust he felt from Bam earlier was what the boy drew from to bring out a hidden power within his body.
Hoaqin gives off a smirk, and admits that Viole is impressive for going so far as to save a member of the enemy team. He asks if Viole failed to realize that he just cost some of his own companions wasting his Dallars on the enemy team, but Bam answers back that he plans to save everyone, which confuses Hoaqin. Bam yells out once more that he plans to save everyone so that they all can return home safely. He then makes it clear to Hoaqin that he's not going to allow anyone to be sacrificed; especially to someone who doesn't deserve it.
Back to within the Submarine of Choice, Rachel asks what Khun means by following all of Bam's decisions, which Khun states once more that he's going to do it. That he plans to keep the Submarine of Death exit door open at all times since Bam wishes to save everybody. Rachel finds the claim to be ridiculous since it would result in providing Rachel's side 30 Dallars saving their three hostages for them, and warns Khun that no matter what, it would result in Bam's side having too few Dallars at that point to overtake Hoaqin's faction. Khun admits what despite what Rachel said to be correct, it's just not going to work with the kind of person Bam is.
Khun points out to Rachel that this kind of Bam is what she's been trying to push away this whole time. However, instead of pushing him away like Rachel did, Khun states that he will be the one that follows Bam's choices. Khun informs her that this is no longer a match between himself and Rachel, but is actually one between Bam and Rachel, which grabs her attention. With that said, Khun warns Rachel that at this point, it will mean that she has lost to Bam.
Meanwhile, Boro, Sachi, and company, continue to watch in stunned silence at Bam's speech. Bam claims that real sacrifice is nothing like what Hoaqin described, but is actually when people put their lives on the line for the ones they love. As a result, the sacrifice Bam is thinking of is far more meaningful and noble then the kind of sacrifice Hoaqin goes by. Daniel is seen listening closely as well as Bam states once more that because of his idea on sacrifice, no one deserves to be forcibly killed just for the sake of powering up Hoaqin.
Bam's Thorn begins to act up as the shinsu begins to swarm all around him. He yells at Hoaqin that the latter's method of sacrifice is wrong, and that no matter what, he will save everyone here, and make Hoaqin lose. Hoaqin, who had remained silent throughout Bam's speech, answers in an annoyed tone that Viole is getting on his nerves.
Switching back to Yuri and Evan, the Princess continues to crack her knuckles as she points out how Pedro seems to be looking quite confident. In return, the Train Conductor asks if it's really a moment to just sit back and watch given that the Jahad Princess is now threatening him. As Yuri and Pedro stand off against one another, Evan thinks over how they're going up against a FUG Ranker, and how he doesn't have much on Pedro since FUG is always so secretive about their members, goals, and information.
However, Evan figures that Pedro is definitely someone that is hiding something up his sleeve since the Train Conductor has the confidence to stand up against a Jahad Princess. Pedro gives off a laugh as he thinks over how the Jahad Empire has issued an order to stop FUG's efforts of resurrecting White on the Hell Train. He deduces that Rankers under Jahad will soon swarm the Hell Train once he manages to kill Yuri, but asks what Yuri thinks of this since it's clearly against the rules of the Tower. However, Yuri assures Pedro that he doesn't have to worry since not only does she not plan on dying, this fight is actually more personal between just Pedro and herself.
Continuing to look right at Yuri, Pedro thinks over how Princess Yura Jahad of the Great Ha Family is so full of herself, and confirms that her arrogant persona is definitely what makes her one of the most famous High Rankers of the Tower. He then thinks over how opposing the Jahad Princess, Pedro must look like nothing more than a nameless FUG Ranker as if he was just a sardine standing up against her shark. However, Pedro thinks to himself that Yuri doesn't know how he's more than just a sardine, but is actually a blowfish. A type of blowfish with poison strong enough to slay even a great shark.
Evan stands next to Yuri as he warns the Princess that Pedro is definitely hiding something. Yuri replies that she could already tell this herself, but thanks Evan for the warning. Evan then warns Yuri not to rush things like usual, to which Yuri replies that it's a given she will rush in since that kind of action always makes things fun.
Shinsu forms around Yuri's fists as she sends a massive punch of energy towards Pedro. The sight of Yuri's attack surprises Pedro seeing that Yuri is just using her fists against him in the surrounding shinsu. A massive explosion from Yuri's fist occurs before Pedro, who admits that the Jahad Princess has such tremendous explosive power. Pedro attempts to absorb the impact of the explosion, but Yuri charges in one more for another punch as another massive explosion occurs before her.
She punches once more causing a third explosion, which at this point, destroys the entire Hell Train area between her and Pedro, leaving nothing but a giant crater in the floor. The sight of Pedro still standing at the opposite side of the crater surprises Yuri seeing that the Train Conductor is still standing, which surprised Evan as well. Evan warns Yuri that something is appearing behind Pedro as said Train Conductor congratulates him for proving that she's indeed a powerful Jahad Princess from the Great Ha Family. He informs Yuri that had he taken a direct hit from one of Yuri's explosive punches, then it would have put him in serious danger.
Continuing off what Evan saw, a massive purple creature is seen appearing behind Pedro, which the confused Yuri asks what the hell the monster is she's currently looking at. Yuri curses at the giant purple creature claiming how ugly it is, which Evan warns her to watch her language. Pedro explains that as a scout, the purple creature is an Observer that was handed to him from Lord Karaka known as the Purple Dementor.
Since it's connected to the Hell Train, only Pedro as the Train Conductor has the authority to use it. He asks if Yuri is truly going to test her strength against a creature that even High Rankers are known to struggle against, which causes Yuri to lick her lips in excitement. Yuri replies back that she figured Pedro was hiding something up his sleeve, and claims to the Train Conductor that she will now go about beating it in order to complete her objective of finding Bam. In return, Pedro replies back that defeating the Purple Dementor won't be easy. Pedro informs Yuri that if she wishes to find out where the Irregular kid is, then she will have to defeat his Observer. Evan warns her to be careful against the ancient Purple Dementor since they're dealing with a person from FUG.
He suggests that they start with a bit of reconnaissance since they don't have a light-bearer teammate on hand to provide them that support, but Yuri begins to get enraged asking what Evan is blabbering about. Yuri orders Evan to just use his guide skills to read the paths so that they can get through this without any trouble. Despite Evan trying to object, the Princess yells out that using force to break through is the obvious answer. She charges over the crater to land a Deadly Strike punch upon Pedro, which the irritated Evan yells to Yuri begging her to listen to him.
On the opposite end, Pedro is glad to see that the Jahad Princess is performing exactly as he expected, and hopes Yuri will do her best to provide him a good fight. He sends the claw of the Purple Dementor out to deflect Yuri's punch.
Yuri backs off to re-establish herself after her punch gets blocked by the Observer. She then goes in for another punch, but is unable to inflict any real damage. Evan inspects the current fight, and deduces that while Yuri is being forced to not go all out due to their location, the Purple Dementor is still strong enough to withstand her weaker hits. Finding it unbelievable that Train Conductor Pedro was hiding an ancient Observer like this on the Hell Train, Evan figures that the FUG Slayer known as Karaka must be more dangerous than he and Yuri thought. Seeing Yuri unable to make any progress as the battle goes on, Pedro gives off a laugh ordering her to attack all she wants.
Pedro thinks to himself that once she stops trying to swinging that punch of hers around, he will continue to hide from her the Purple Dementor's secret weapon. Yuri dodges yet another strike from the ancient Observer, but it's at this point that she notices the Purple Dementor about to shoot something at her from it's mouth. A massive purple beam of shinsu shoots from it's mouth, which Yuri manages to evade, but sees that the area she moved away from has been completely destroyed. Yuri finds it surprising that the Purple Dementor seems to know how to play rough since Observers in general are usually just used for reconnaissance.
The Train Conductor explains that this was a result of back when the war was at it's greatest. A time when families and guilds had no protection, so scouts were required to have all the fighting power they coul get. He also points out that this war he's talking about happened long before he or Princess Yuri were ever born. As the Purple Dementor sends it's claw at Yuri again, Pedro puts it in simpler words that he and Yuri are nothing compared to the ancient Observer. As he prepares to fight once more, Yuri yells back why it matters how old the Purple Dementor is, which causes Evan to warn her not to get provoked. Pedro thinks to herself that the plan has been going well so far since Yuri still hasn't noticed yet that within the Purple Dementor's right claw is poison.
The poison is so powerful that it can even make people as strong as High Rankers lose consciousness for a short time. Pedro remembers how it's been known within history that the Purple Dementor will only eject it's poison from the fingernails when it desires to do so. As a result, the ancient Observer playing around with Yuri for the time being is just the Purple Dementor's way of getting Yuri to let down her guard for the moment it decides to use the poison.
The Train Conductor deduces that it's almost about time for the Purple Dementor to use it's poison hidden within a normal strike, and at that moment, Pedro figures it will be the perfect moment to land the final blow since Yuri will fall unconscious. As the ancient Observer sends out it's claw however, Yuri ends up blocking it with a new attack, which confuses Pedro as to why the Purple Dementor's claw stopped. In return, Yuri calls out to the confused Pedro asking why he's been a little too obvious.
She points out how it's been looking odd to her that the second finger of the Purple Dementor's right hand hasn't been used to attack. As a result she's come to the conclusion that it's pretty obvious the ancient Observer is up to something. She asks Pedro if the Purple Dementor perhaps has some sort of secret weapon, which catches Pedro's attention realizing that Yuri has caught up to his plan. She then taunts Pedro that something considered to be the greatest Observer is still going to just be an Observer if it's handled by an idiot as she breaks open the Purple Dementor's finger that hasn't been used to attack. Sure enough, she sees the green substance dripping out of it that she deduces is some kind of poison. Cracking her knuckles once more, Yuri calls Pedro a sneaky bastard for trying to poison her just because she's a monster. Evan continues to watch over the battle, and wonders if Yuri directly injected her shinsu into the Purple Dementor as a means to fight it since her use of shinsu within the Hell Train is pretty limited.
Not fearing as much for Yuri's safety anymore, Evan is glad to know that Yuri is using her head more than just as an accessory. Pedro prepares to continue the fight as he claims to Yuri that the poison attempt isn't the only trick the Purple Dementor has. Ordering it to move, the ancient Observer fires multiple purple shinsu beams at the Jahad Princess.
In return, Yuri dashes through the beams, and orders Pedro to use this chance to surrender since this is the end of the line for his Observer toy. She punches the Purple Dementor's claw once more to continue breaking apart the fingernails that may have poison within them. Pedro yells out that since he now has Yuri so focused on the Purple Dementor's fingernails, it leaves her open to getting hit by a maximum output shinsu blast. Yuri looks up, and sees at the mouth of the Purple Dementor a high-density mass of shinsu being created.
Evan warns her to be careful knowing that this uncoming shinsu blast is going to be deadly, which Yuri admits that she understands the situation. She begins to create a ball of red shinsu in her hands ordering the Purple Dementor to come her way. A moment later, the ancient Observer sends the high-density shinsu blast towards her, but Yuri quickly evades out of the way by jumping high into the air.
Holding the red shinsu ball in her hand, Yuri performs a special skill of hers known as the Ha Family Shinsu Hadouken: The Red Velvet Sword, and blasts it downward upon the Purple Dementor. Yuri drops back down to the floor seeing the flames before her, and taunts Pedro that his ancient Observer trash burns up nicely.
In return, Pedro thinks over the current situation in silence, and then admits that this has made things a lot more complicated for him. Yuri then dashes over the crater and attempts to land a punch on Pedro, but he manages to dodge the strike, which surprises Evan.
She next sends a barrage of punches toward Pedro in close-combat, but he continues to evade each one. Yuri admits that Pedro is proving himself to not be to shabby, and states that he has the abilities to perhaps become one of Jahad's royal guards. Pedro thanks her for the compliment, but informs her that he's been after her life this whole time. He sends a massive shockwave attack at point-blank range, but Yuri is able to evade it. She then gives off a grin now knowing what Pedro is after, and tells him that it's only right to give him a more proper fight as she prepares another punch of shinsu.
Quickly charging up a mass of yellow-colored shinsu in her right hand, Yuri claims that Pedro is someone who is going to pay for his sin of playing around with another person's life. She sends the punch towards Pedro, who realizes in fear that he's not going to be able to dodge or block this one. Yuri gloats that she calls this special punch of hers the Nuclear Punch as she sends a massive right-handed uppercut against Pedro's chin. The punch sends the Train Conductor blasting up into the air, which causes Yuri to give off a laugh claming that pulling something like that off feels good.
Pedro comes crashing down to the floor, and lies unable to move in the new crater his body made. Yuri steps towards the crater, and orders Pedro to tell her where Bam is now that the Train Conductor has cooled off. She also informs him that their bet is still on, so she's going to go looking for Bam if he manages to win the Slayer Candidate game. However, she warns Pedro that it will be a completely different story if White somehow ends up getting resurrected. In return, the defeated Pedro gives off a laugh at Yuri's words.
The Train Conductor warns Yuri that it might be difficult at this point to reach Viole, which confuses the Princess. Pedro explains that even if Jue Viole Grace comes out the winner, they're all caught within an inescapable trap anyway since the Slayer Candidate game has been programmed for the Boiling Acid to reach the engine core where Bam and company are located. He gloats to Yuri that no matter what, it's all over for Bam.
Back to the engine core room, Poro announces to the Viole and Hoaqin factions that they will be taking a short break before continuing the Dallar Show's Third Round. He also informs the two teams that after the Prince and Buelsar rescue attempts, Hoaqin's faction now has 32 Dallars while Jue Viole Grace's faction has dropped to 67. Poro thinks to himself that he's doing his part providing Viole a bit of rest, but notices how the boy already looks so exhausted at this point. He also questions what it is that Viole was thinking to go so far as to save the Regular of the enemy team. Next to Poro, the white-haired girl wonders if Bam is trying to play the hero, or he's someone who's trying not to lose his humanity.
As she continues to look down at Bam, the white-haired girl flashes back to when Pedro came before her somewhere within the Hell Train. Pedro explains to the white-haired girl that she will be participating in the Dallar Show's Third Round game since she's technically the final piece of the FUG Slayer, White.
Pedro then points out that since Hoaqin has been released from his sealed room thanks to Rachel's team, said Slayer Candidate will come looking for her in order to perform the White resurrection. He informs the white-haired girl that when she meets Hoaqin during the Dallar Show's Third Round, she will need to perform a certain task. The white-haired girl finds this amusing asking if Pedro really understands what it is he's currently talking to. She warns Pedro that her getting involved in the Dallar Show could ruin the plan of resurrecting White, which Pedro assures her that she can do whatever since all that matters is White's resurrection.
He also informs her that the death of Jue Viole Grace, and the chaos which will be brought to the Tower from White's resurrection, are also what they're after, which grabs the white-haired girls attention. Pedro begins to walk away, but says back to the white-haired girl that she's free to do whatever she wants since no one here has the power to stop her. He then warns her to remember that if she decides to help Viole instead of Hoaqin, she will be held accountable for making that choice. Pedro also says to her that no matter what happens here, it's Lord Karaka who was the true being that resurrected White.
Returning to the present, Poro announces that the next hostage from Jue Viole Grace's team will now be placed into the Submarine of Death entrance. Miseng and Quaetro watch as Akraptor disappears from the cage, and is placed within the pipe spiral's starting location. Meanwhile, Hoaqin asks Viole if the latter really believes in such a perfect victory by not only saving everyone here, but winning the game as well. He calls Viole arrogant for such a thought, and claims that it's only the strong who will survive in this Tower.
Hoaqin explains that it's a chain for the strong to devour the weak, but those that are even stronger would go about eating the strong. That those who are beasts will not be able to exist if there's no prey to hunt. Despite all this, he asks if Viole truly wants to be a hero that saves everyone in that kind of world. He states once more that Viole is arrogant for thinking such a case is possible as Poro announces that Akraptor's descent will now begin. A moment later, Akraptor begins his fall through the Submarine of Death.
Hoaqin figures that at this point, he has no choice but to settle things with Viole once and for all. The announcement is made that Akraptor's Dallar count has fallen to the point where the counter will now begin at 100. Hoaqin informs Bam that it's pretty much a given the former will automatically win if he allows Viole to just save everyone, but he claims that he's not interested in the kind of victory where he just stands around and watches. Akraptor's Dallar amount drops to 95 as Hoaqin informs Viole that since this has become a battle between their beliefs of sacrifice, he will spend 20 Dallars to go down this time around, which catches Bam's attention.
At 90 Dallars remaining, Hoaqin dares Bam to follow after him. Bam and Hoaqin continue to stand by on their shinsu platforms above the Submarine of death as the Dallars continue to drop from 85 all the way down to 25.
Akraptor's fall then reaches 20 Dallars as Bam and Hoaqin jump down into the central pipe. Khun is left shocked to see Hoaqin jumping into the Submarine of Death this time around as Bam thinks to himself that while he started a bit late, he's managing to stay alongside Hoaqin during their central pipe descent.
During their fall, Hoaqin calls out to Viole finding it amazing that the latter is still managing to get faster, and asks what happened for Viole to get this much stronger. He next asks if Viole is someone who really wants to save the current hostage that badly, but remembers how Viole has already said that he's aiming to save everyone. As a result, Hoaqin claims that Viole has put everyone around him in danger simply to try to defend his own belief on sacrifice.
Meanwhile within the Submarine of Choice, Khun taunts Rachel claiming that the psycho King on her side is apparently not that rational either. He points out how Hoaqin chose to enter the spiral pipe despite the fact that he would have won had he just let Bam waste all his Dallars saving everyone.
Rachel replies back that this doesn't affect her since she figured Hoaqin would pull something like this, but she also warns Khun that said Slayer Candidate is still a really strong opponent for Bam to go up against. She states to Khun that no matter what, it will be impossible for Bam to win against Hoaqin.
As Hoaqin and Bam continue to fall through the central pipe, the former says that unlike Viole, he's not a hypocrite, because he's always one of a kind. Hoaqin swings his sword in Bam's direction, which causes Bam to shield himself, and take the attack head on. Khun calls out to Bam hoping he's alright as Hoaqin uses a combo sword attack known as the White-Style Spirit Sword: The Wake of the Dead to send a large amount of sword strikes at Bam's location. Hoaqin yells out for Viole to see that this power he's currently using is what was created from the blood and brothers of the people he sacrificed to make himself stronger.
Ending his Wake of the Dead attack, Hoaqin sees Bam appear perfectly fine out of the dust. Hoaqin finds it interesting that Viole has managed to follow him this far down the Submarine of Death's central pipe, and congratulates Viole for such an impressive display. Summoning his shinsu Bangs, Bam claims that he was hoping he wouldn't have to resort to using this skill as he uses the Yu Hansung Style Shinsu Manipulation Skill: Waves of Peacock Wings, to send up to eight Bangs in Hoaqin's direction. Watching from the sideline, Bero is shocked to see that Bam is someone strong enough to use up to eight Bangs, which Cherry adds that Bam looks cool at the moment.
Hoaqin spends the next moment slashing each incoming Bang with his sword as Bam yells at him that beliefs here don't matter since all he's wishing to do at the moment is save the person (Akraptor) from dying here. Bam continues to yell that he doesn't need Hoaqin's grand purpose of calculation to save those he wishes to save as he uses another Yu Hansung Style Shinsu Manipulation Skill: The Maelstrom, to overwhelm Hoaqin with a massive wave of shinsu.
Hoaqin manages to block it with his sword, and sends a counter strike towards Bam, but realizes that he missed as Bam had used his shinsu platform during his Yu Hansung Style attack to boost himself downward to pick up the pace. Hoaqin watches from above as Bam bursts downward to reach Akraptor, which Hoaqin admits is impressive to see that Viole has managed to keep up with him this far down the Submarine of Death.
Bam yells out to open up the Submarine exit as Hoaqin thinks to himself that he's forced to admit it. That Viole is someone who was born with remarkable abilities. Preparing his sword for an attack, Hoaqin thinks about the future, and how it might actually be possible for Viole to reach the top of the Tower and become a Ranker without having to consume any sacrifices or blood the way he needed to as White. However, Hoaqin states to himself that he will make sure to deny Viole's Tower climb since the latter's beliefs shatters the rules that Hoaqin came to know about the Tower.
From the sideline, Rak watches in fear worrying about the black turtle as he witnesses Hoaqin prepare a massive shinsu attack with his sword. Holding up his sword, Hoaqin orders Viole to be gone since the new Slayer Candidate is nothing more than a mutant. Sachi watches in shock realizing what the attack is that Hoaqin's about to perform as he calls out to Bam to warn him to watch out. Bam looks behind him higher up, and watches as Hoaqin sends a massive blast of white shinsu in his direction known as the Phantom Master Sword.
Bam manages to catch up to Akraptor's descent as the Phantom Master Sword blast approaches the two of them. Bam looks upon it in fear realizing that he won't be able to dodge it as Akraptor gets between him to shield Bam from the blast with his body. Viole begs Akraptor not to do it, but it's at this point that a second blast of white shinsu is seen being shot into the Submarine of Death; blocking the Phantom Master Sword attack from reaching Bam and Akraptor.
Hoaqin looks in the direction of the blast that interrupted his attack, and sees the white-haired girl approaching him claiming that Hoaqin has done enough. She scolds Hoaqin for being someone that refuses to change his evil nature to the bitter end, which confuses Hoaqin as to what the white-haired girl is talking about. He then asks what it is that the white-haired girl would know about him, which she answers that she had actually been watching what Hoaqin's been doing for a lot longer than he may have thought. The white-haired girl reveals that the billion victims he sacrificed, as well as their vengeful spirits, are what formed her as the new White clone, which shocks Hoaqin.
The white-haired girl next teleports over to Bam's location where he's now on his small shinsu platform alongside Akraptor. She informs Jue Viole Grace that his hope to save everyone is no doubt going to reach its limit one day. However, she informs Viole that today is not such a day where he will reach his limit.
The white-haired girl states that she, and everyone inside her, have decided to join him. Stabbing her sword into Bam, the white-haired girl informs Viole that she will now share her power with him, which shocks everyone watching.
With the sword of the white-haired girl stabbed into his chest, Bam remains silent unable to make sense of what's going on. The white-haired girl explains that what he's about to receive is the power of the billion spirits who were gathered together by White. Acting on the billion souls' behalf, she warns Viole that if he's able to withstand their resentment and bitterness, the power will be his. The sword stabbed into Bam begins to glow with power as Akraptor calls out to Viole hoping he will make it out ok. The white-haired girl leaves off informing Viole that if he's able to contain the billion souls, then he will obtain a tremendous power.
Back to Yuri and Evan's location, the Princess asks what the defeated Pedro means by pouring Boiling Acid upon Bam. The Train Conductor answers that should Bam somehow miraculously win the Slayer Candidate game, a back-up plan has been prepared where the Boiling Acid will flow into Viole's current location at the Hell Train engine core. Pedro claims that Viole, as well as none of his Regular companions, will be able to escape the acid, and will end up melting to the point of completely disappearing.
Yuri points out how Pedro's plan makes no sense since FUG's overall goal is to resurrect White here within the Hell Train, who's currently also within the engine core. However, Pedro reveals that Hoaqin doesn't have to worry since his faction has the teleporting Yura Ha on their side to easily escape the engine core room.
Pedro also reminds Yuri that it's already been decided that no matter what, it's only going to be Jue Viole Grace and his compansions that will die within the engine core room. However, Yuri informs the Train Conductor that Bam isn't going to die, which confuses Pedro.
Stating that she knows it better than anyone, Yuri tells Pedro once more that there's no way Bam is going to die here. She tells Pedro that Bam will find a way to survive, and will make it to Yuri's location somewhere within the Hell Train, because it's a fate that was meant to be since long ago. She leaves off ordering Pedro once more to tell her where Bam is.
Back to the engine core room, Bam continues to remain lost in thought at the white-girl having stabbed her sword into the boy; offering him the power of the billion souls Hoaqin sacrificed that she's been housing within herself. Bam could feel something react within him as Akraptor, who's still next to his old Tangsooyook teammate, asks Viole if he's ok. The power flares up at the spot where the white-girl had stabbed him as gold-colored shinsu swarms all around Bam. He finds himself shocked at the power that had been provided to him.
Clenching his first to get a feel of the new power, Bam finds it hard to believe just how much lighter his body feels right now. The white-haired girl is surprised by Bam's reaction, and points out how Viole seems to have reacted to the power of a billion souls better than she expected. She also adds how sure she was that Viole was going to die from shock trying to control such a power. Akraptor asks Viole once more if he's ok pointing out how he just saw the Slayer Candidate get stabbed, which Viole, after looking down at his clenched fist, claims that he's currently fine.
Turning his attention to the white-haired girl, Bam asks if what she said was true about her being the power that Hoaqin had been saving up, which the white-haired girl answers that she's indeed the billion gathered souls that were sacrificed by White in the past. The white-haired girl explains that White ended up creating her after fusing with one of his siblings in the past shortly after he was defeated by the Jahad Princess, which was the time when White had lost all his power. Continuing the explanation, the white-haired girl states that what she just passed on to Viole is a part of the power that was gathered together by the vengeful souls who were killed by White.
She then reveals how due to a certain incident on the Hell Train (Roen's sealing spell), Hoaqin ended up losing his White form having been forced to split into the five siblings, and also lost control of her, the power of the billion souls. The white-haired girl informs Viole that the power she gave him is the accumulation of the fury and hatred the souls have towards the person known as Hoaqin. However, she admits that something about this now seems strange, which confuses Bam. She points out how Viole is someone who should be going through such tremendous shock within his body after obtaining such a high amount of power all at once.
Meanwhile, Hoaqin continues to remain looking down at Bam, who overheard the white-girl talking about how she's apparently the power he had been saving up. Seeing a gold-shine within Bam's eyes looking straight at him, Hoaqin thinks to himself that he's not liking the look the boy is giving him. A moment later, Bam and Hoaqin return to the shinsu platform above the Submarine of Death to begin the next hostage drop. Hoaqin continues to look at Bam in silence as the latters eyes are seen still giving off a golden shine.
Nearby, Akraptor returns to the rest of Bam's group as Ehwa checks on him to see if he's ok. Akraptor is left annoyed by the current situation telling Ehwa that if he was allowed to die just now, then the next person for this game could have lived.
Close to them is Hanool looking over the injured Daniel and Aka. Daniel admits that Viole has become a hard one to figure one since the boy is going about trying to save his enemies. Aka agrees with Daniel, but points out how compared to their old team with Roen, Bam is someone who isn't trying to sacrifice anyone. Poro announces that the next hostage for Hoaqin's faction will now be placed into the Submarine of Death entrance, which turns out to be Raguel of Team Rachel.
Angel's drop down the spiral pipe then gets underway, but Bam and Hoaqin remain on the shinsu platforms all the way to Raguel's Dallar count dropping to 15. As the Dallar count drops to 10, Hoaqin thinks over what the white-haired girl said earlier about Viole apparently being given all the power he had saved up through a billion sacrifices. He finds such a case to be absurd since Viole is someone who doesn't know how to use the spell that would allow him to control the billion souls. The single Dallar countdown for Angel slowly drops down to 5 as Bam sets off down the central pipe to save Raguel.
Hoaqin watches Bam descend, and confirms that Viole's movements have gotten lighter. He watches Bam make it in time to grab Angel before she falls into the Boiling Acid, and thinks over how Viole was someone who looked so exhausted previously that he was forcing himself to the limit to obtain more strength. The announcement is made that Hoaqin's team has received ten Dallars for their hostage being rescued, but Bam thinks to himself that with the power he's been provided, he can definitely save everyone here.
A moment later, Bam returns to the shinsu platforms above the Submarine of Death, and stands opposite Hoaqin once more. Seeing the gold-shine still within Bam's eyes, Hoaqin asks if Viole really did take the power of the billion souls that were meant to be his, which Bam answers that this seems to be the case. That the souls Hoaqin sacrificed keep telling him to beat Hoaqin.
Over at Bam's group, Aka asks Daniel if the two of them could have done it. That they could have found something 600 years ago within Hoaqin's spellbook that would have allowed them to find a way to beat Hoaqin without anyone getting killed.
Flashing back to 600 years ago, Boro and company are seen reading Hoaqins's spellbook. Sachi reads the text in the book of how Hoaqin could no longer support his White form, and was forced to split back into the five sibling pieces using a sigil. The plan was then to have Hoaqin's four other siblings to remain hidden on the Hell Train until it was finally time for Hoaqin to begin White's resurrection. By the time of the resurrection, the spell by that point would be completed, and White will be able to return with his power fully restored. However, there's a catch being that if a random spirit was to mingle with the sigil that split the five siblings, then the spell will fail, and all five of the White siblings will be sealed within the Hell Train forever. As a result, the plan is to make the Regulars who come across the Hell Train to kill one another so that no one comes across the plan to resurrect White.
Having heard the entire plan read by Boro, the thing that catches his attention is hearing how Hoaqin could get sealed on the Hell Train forever. Boro thinks things over that he doesn't entirely understand what the spellbook said, but knows for sure that if someone was to lure Hoaqin into the sigil, then they will have a chance to keep Hoaqin forever trapped on the Hell Train. Boro figures that the biggest problem is who it will be that will have to die to pull this off, but Roen steps forward claiming that she will do it, which shocks Daniel and company. Roen begs the team to be the one to do it since she was the one who originally put them all in danger.
Returning to the present, Aka remembers how the team begged Roen not to go. However, he points out to Daniel how perhaps deep-down, they were glad Roen chose to sacrifice herself for them since they were all probably terrified of death. Aka then points out how despite the rest of the team being afraid of death, Daniel was the one person who actually wasn't.
Flashing back once more to the day before Boro's team sealed Hoaqin in the Hell Train, the fight against the Slayer Candidate is currently ongoing. The order is given to corner Hoaqin into the sigil room at all costs as Boro and Aka are seen with their weapons ready to face the Slayer Candidate as Daniel is seeing sitting against a wall nearby trying to recover from a wound.
Hoaqin points out how rude Boro's group are for stealing away his spellbook, and also calls them a load of fools for having the nerve to appear before him instead of running away. However, Boro gives off a laugh, and claims that Hoaqin is about to see who's really in charge here.
Charging at Boro and company, Hoaqin finds Boro's claim to be arrogant believing that there isn't a single thing they can do to touch even a hair on him. As Hoaqin's sword goes in to kill Boro, the latter admits that the Slayer Candidate is one of the most impressive swordsmen he's ever seen.
However, Boro also thinks over how up until this point, he hasn't lost in a sword fight either. He hopes that for just this once, Hoaqin will come out the loser, which shocks Hoaqin seeing that Boro managed to knock him back. Hoaqin re-establishes himself after being knocked back by Boro, but sees yellow symbols on the floor appear all around him, which Hoaqin realizes is his sigil magic.
Beginning to fear that something's going on, Hoaqin orders Boro and company to tell him what they did, but is then greeted by Roen from behind. Roen points out how it's great that Sachi being a wave controller sorcerer turned out to be of great help here to set up the sigil, and warns Hoaqin that it's about time for him to sleep forever. The sight of Roen standing at the center of the sigil spell set up to seal Hoaqin shocks everyone on the team since it wasn't decided just yet who it would have been that would stand in the sigil as the person to be sacrificed.
In the present, Aka thinks over how that day, it wasn't established who was going to be sacrificed. However, he points out how at that moment, there was perhaps a thought going through everyone's head that Roen standing there within the sigil spell was the obvious decision. Aka claims that at that very moment, they were cowards who acting like they were possessed by demons wishing for Roen to be sacrificed so that they could live on. He remembers how after the moment Roen revealed herself within the sigil spell, it was a tearful Daniel running up to Roen begging her not to do it. Aka apologizes to Daniel, but the latter asks him not to bother at this point. Daniel explains that he never hated Aka and company for possibly being the ones who didn't stop Roen from sacrificing herself. He actually hated Aka and company for stopping him from dying alongside Roen.
Back to the game, Poro announces that Hoaqin's team currently has 22 Dallars while Viole's team has 33 Dallars. At this point, they are on the fifth hostage, and both teams have rescued their first two hostages. Poro states that the next round will soon begin, and that the hostage will be from Jue Viole Grace's team. Within the cage, Blarode and Quaetro watch as Miseng gets teleported into the Submarine of Death entrance. The sight of Miseng being chosen shocks everyone from Bam's group.
The announcement is made that Miseng will sonn be lowered into the spiral pipe. Within the Submarine of Choice, Khun explains how since it will cost ten Dallars to open the Submarine exit for Bam, it will leave both the teams at 22 Dallars. He then points out how Hoaqin will be forced to settle things in this round, and will have to go down into the central pipe this time to defeat Bam. Khun asks Rachel who she believes will come out the winner, which she answers that it will obviously be the sword she chose. At this point, Poro orders for the drop to begin as Miseng begins to descend through the Submarine of Death.
Bam and Hoaqin stand opposite one another as the Dallar amount for Miseng's Dallar count drops from 100 to 25. The moment Miseng's count drops to 20, Bam and Hoaqin quickly set off down the Submarine of Death's central pipe.
Boro and Sachi are shocked to see both of the Slayer Candidates going this time around, which Boro figures that Hoaqin must be aiming to end it this time around. Meanwhile, Akraptor is seen worrying about Miseng while Rak worries about the black turtle.
As the two Slayer Candidates descend through the central pipe, Hoaqin states that it's about time to see what Viole can do with the power he took. Using the White-Style Spirit Sword: The Rise of the Dead technique, Hoaqin sends a variety of sword slashes all around Bam. However, Bam struggles to evade them deducing that the Rise of the Dead technique appears to be thousands of blades flying at him on abstract trajectories as if their movement was alive. Moving towards Hoaqin instead, Bam figures that there should be a chance to break through the former. He evades the incoming Rise of the Dead sword swings, and manages to land a punch across Hoaqin's face. Boro yells out in excitement at the sight of Hoaqin actually taking a direct hit as Hoaqin thinks over in surprised confusion what just happened. Blood is seem dropping from his face as Hoaqin attempts to slash at Bam calling him a bastard for what he just did.
Miseng's Dallar count drops to 15 as Hoaqin thinks over if it's really possible that Viole managed to take away from him the billion soul power Hoaqin was saving up. Hoaqin yells out that it's ridiculous for such a case to happen since he was the one who originally created the power made from a billion souls. Using the White-Style Spirit Sword: The Flame of the Dead technique, Hoaqin orders Jue Viole Grace to give him his power back. Hoaqin sends the blast of shinsu at Viole, but he hears the latter telling Hoaqin that the power of a billion souls is not his, which confuses Hoaqin.
Bam explains that the power of a billion souls is the hatred created from each and every person who was sacrificed to him. Golden shinsu begins to form in Bam's hands, which the white-haired girl begins to realize what it is that Bam is creating. Holding a golden sword of shinsu before Hoaqin, Bam explains that what he has in his hands is the blade of a billion souls pointed at Hoaqin and his arrogance.
The sight of the golden sword shocks Hoaqin, which surprise Khun and Rachel as well seeing that Bam had just created a sword made of shinsu. The white-haired girl continues to watch as Boro and Sachi watch in shock confused as to how Bam is so powerful. Swinging his golden swing towards Hoaqin, Bam states that this power was created by the people the former tormented and killed. The shocked Hoaqin can't believe what he's seeing as he confirms that Viole is using Hoaqin's own swordcraft against him. At that moment, Miseng's Dallar count drops to 10.
Managing to block away Bam's sword strike, Hoaqin remains unable to believe that Viole had actually taken away his billion soul power. Hoaqin also complains how Viole is now suddenly trying to imitate the former's swordplay, and asks Viole what the hell kind of monster he is. At Bam's group, Daniel asks the question as well also being confused as to how the hell Bam is. Bam answers Hoaqin's question that the only person who deserves the title of monster is the latter. At that point, the announcement is made that the single countdown will begin for Miseng's descent, which causes Akraptor to call out to Viole that time is running out. Miseng's Dallar count drops to 9 as Bam prepares his sword to strike at Hoaqin. In return, Hoaqin calls Viole an insolent bastard claiming that he can't allow this, and orders Viole to give him his power back.
Miseng's Dallars drop to 8 as Bam and Hoaqin clash swords in close-combat. Hoaqin yells out more that the power belongs to him as the Great King and God of FUG. As Miseng's Dallars drop to 7, Bam sends another sword strike in Hoaqin's direction, which Hoaqin realizes that it's a massive attack he will be unable to dodge.
Hoaqin's forced to try to block against Bam's massive sword strike of golden-shinsu as Miseng's Dallar amount drops to 5. The white-haired girl and Rachel continue to watch the match closely while Miseng's Dallar count drops to 4. Khun however is seen watching with a grin on his face as Miseng's Dallar count drops to 3. Rak continues to watch as well, and congratulates the black turtle for a job well done. Meanwhile, Yura watches in confusion unable to believe what she's seeing. Miseng's Dallar count drops to 2 as they all watch Hoaqin begin to fall having been unable to successfully block Bam's sword attack.
The announcment is made that Jue Viole Grace has won. Daniel finds is unbelievable that Viole actually managed to pull it off. That he saved everyone and won the match. As Miseng's Dallar count reaches 1, Bam is seen having caught her before she fell into the Boiling Acid. Daniel asks himself if Roen is watching currently since it seems that they've all met a truly incredibly guy just now. A person who won without managing to kill a single person.
Poro gives out the announcement that Viole's team has successfully saved the hostage. However, since Hoaqin is no longer able to continue the match, the overall winner of the Dallar Show is Jue Viole Grace's team. Daniel is proud to tell Roen in his mind that the Viole person he met was able to defeat Hoaqin. Moments later, Bam floats out of the Submarine of Death with Miseng at his side to return to the rest of his companions, who all congratulate Bam for pulling the impossible off. Watching Bam reunite with his companions, Aka tells Daniel that he has something to say that he's been unable to say until now. He informs Daniel that while the members of their old team were cowards for surviving thanks to Roen's sacrifice, they don't regret stopping Daniel from dying along with her, which catches Daniel's attention. The reason being that the reason Roen died was for Daniel alone.
Flashing back to 600 years ago is the night before Boro's team sealed off Hoaqin within the Hell Train. Daniel is seen confronting Roen asking why she isn't using this time to get some sleep before the final showdown with Hoaqin tomorrow, which Roen answers that it's because she made her decision. Roen informs Daniel that she's decided to be the one to sacrifice herself to seal away Hoaqin within the Hell Train.
Daniel struggles to answer back, but Roen quickly interrupts him pointing out that there's someone she likes. She reveals to Daniel that the person she likes is him, which leaves him unable to say anything. Roen explains that she wanted to tell Daniel how she felt for so long, but never had the confidence to do so due to everyone else being around. She states once more to Daniel that she likes him, and that while she also likes Boro, Aka, and Sachi, it's Daniel that she likes the most.
Boro, Aka, and Sachi, are all seen unable to sleep, and listening in on the conversation between Daniel and Roen. She informs Daniel that if she goes through with sacrificing herself to seal Hoaqin tomorrow, it will be because of her love for Daniel. Roen teases Daniel that he's short, grumpy, and not the most charming person, but she came to like him when he accepted her at her lowest point. Daniel remains unable to say anything to the teasing, which Roen then adds that she likes how Daniel always turns into a softie around her. Daniel tries to beg Roen not to do it, but she asks for Daniel not to resent or hate anyone if she ends up being the one that dies sealing Hoaqin.
Roen states once more to Daniel that if she was to die, it would be because he was the one she chose to die for. This time around, she tells Daniel that she loves him, which leaves Daniel unable to say anything. She then thanks Daniel, because of how this is the first time she's ever had these kind of feelings. A feeling of love to the point that she doesn't even fear death.
Returning to the present, Bam's companions gather around him to check on the former, who's now completely exhausted after his fight with Hoaqin. Rak asks the black turtle if Bam is ok, which Bam answers that he's alright, and isn't hurt anywhere currently. Looking at his hand, Bam could no longer feel the power that was provided to him from the white-haired girl, and is left wondering where it had gone. A moment later, said white-haired girl arrives at Bam and company's location claiming that Viole is remarkable.
The white-haired girl tells Bam that she never expected Viole to use the power of the billion souls like that, and admits that she was worried that Viole's mind would collapse trying to control so many souls. Rak steps forward ordering the floating white-haired turtle to explain why she did something so dangerous to his black turtle subordinate, which enrages the white-haired girl as she reminds Rak that it's thanks to her that Bam won against Hoaqin. Turning her attention back to Bam, the white-haired girl thanks Jue Viole Grace for allowing her, and the billion souls, to release some of their pent-up resentment, and informs him that the souls currently residing within Viole have decided to help him on future endeavours. Bam continues to listen as the white-haired girl states that while there's no such thing as a perfect revenge, seeing Hoaqin sent flying was still something that felt great.
She thanks Jue Viole Grace once more for this, which causes Bam in return to thank her for the support that she, and the billion souls, provided for him here. At this point, Daniel walks up to the white-haired girl as there's something he wishes to know, which catches her attention.
Daniel points out how during the Dallar Show game, the white-haired girl mentioned how she's an accumulation of all the souls that were killed by Hoaqin. Hanool is heard calling out to Daniel complaining that as an injured patient, he should be using this time to rest instead of wandering around, but Daniel ignores it, and asks the white-haired girl if the Regular known as Roen Yuia is perhaps one of the souls within her. Daniel's question catches Boro and Sachi's attention which the white-haired girl answers that Roen probably is one. Seeing Daniel begin to get excited, the white-haired girl apologizes to him and reveals the bad news that she's already a complete whole. That the personalities of the billion individual souls which created her body are already gone.
The white-haired girl states that she understands what Daniel is wishing for (Roen's resurrection), but she informs him that since her personality is gone, there's no way for her to come back. She reveals that what she said earlier to the referee, Poro Poe, was all a lie so that she could intervene with the Dallar Show Game, and apologizes once more to Daniel for the bad news, which the saddened Daniel answers that he understands. Instead, Daniel asks the white-haired clone girl to send his message to Roen's soul within her. That he loves her as well.
Daniel explains that if he was able to successfully revive Roen, telling her he loves her would have been the first thing he would have said to her. He points out how it's always pained him that Roen departed from this world without ever hearing his reply to her love confession that he also loved her very much. Beginning to cry, Daniel thanks Roen for allowing him to continue living. Boro and Sachi watch in silence as they hear Daniel thank Roen once more for loving him. Meanwhile, the defeated Hoaqin continues to fall through the Submarine of Death after his loss to Bam, and is about to fall into the Boiling Acid.
Hoaqin uses this moment to think back to the past to a time when he approached his Great Family father, Arie Hon, on a floating ship castle. He call out to his father, which in return, Arie asks who the boy is. Hoaqin properly introduces himself to his father, and explains how he's a son of the Great Arie Family that has inherited his father's blood. He tells his father that as soon as he heard that Arie Hon was here on this floating ship, he rushed here as fast as possible to see him. Hoaqin then informs father Hon that it's his dream to become a swordsman even greater than him, which catches Hon's attention asking if Hoaqin is really doing that. He asks for Hoaqin to follow him since there's something he wishes to show his son, which excites Hoaqin. Moments later, Hon brings Hoaqin to the edge of the floating ship where they look upon a large castle with a massive glowing sword floating above it.
Hon asks what Hoaqin thinks of the castle altar, which the latter admits that the sight of it looks amazing. Hoaqin explains to his father of how he only ever saw the altar through the floating ship window, and that this is the first time he's ever seen it outside in all its glory. Hon finds is interesting that this is Hoaqin's first time, which his son continues to explain that since he hasn't been chosen as a Regular just yet, he's been forced to stay at this current floating ship castle.
However, Hoaqin states that if he was to ever be chosen as a Regular later in life, he will definitely return to this place. Having heard Hoaqin's will, Hon accepts his son's wish, and explains how the current Floor they're on belongs to his Great Arie Family, and that the people all around have made buildings, and sing songs, all in the name of Arie Hon. He also points out that amongst the Ten Great Families, it's only the Ha and Khun families that compare to his Great Arie Family of the sword.
Giving Hoaqin a pat on the head however, Hon informs his son that no matter how hard the boy will try, it will be impossible for him to surpass his father at this place. Showing a side of bloodlust, Hon explains to his son that from his servants, wives, and other countless Great Arie Famile sons, their flesh and bones were gathered up to create his great Arie Blade, which is the one seen floating above the altar Hoaqin sees before him.
As a result of the creation of this sword, it will always be Arie Hon who Towers above everyone within the Great Arie Family. He informs Hoaqin that if his son wishes to become a part of this sword, then he will have to grow up sacrificing himself for Arie Hon. However, he also offers Hoaqin an alternative that may lead to his son's wish of surpassing him one day, which catches Hoaqin's attention. He asks for Hoaqin to leave this place, and return to his Arie Floor as a demon.
Returning to the present, Hoaqin thinks about his father after remembering the story that motivated him to become one with a demon. However, his thought is interrupted when the ceiling of the Hell Train engine core room begins to crack. The crack becomes a massive hole as Boiling Acid begins to pour down into the room, which shocks everyone. Poro is seen jumping off his referee platform in an attempt to evade the pouring acid, and screams out in fear.
Meanwhile, within the Submarine of Choice, Khun taunts Rachel informing her that it appears the results of the game ended in Bam's complete victory. He orders her to now tell him about what happened in Bam's past before Rachel and him had entered the Tower, which causes Rachel to remain silent knowing that she lost here. Meanwhile, the Boiling Acid continues to fall into the room, which catches the attention of Bam and his companions.
Khun and Rachel hear a loud sound outside the Submarine of Choice wondering what's going on, and see outside their Submarine that acid has begun to pour into the engine core room. Rachel claims that she knew this was going to happen. That FUG had never intended to allow for Bam and his companions to leave this place alive. Khun asks what she means by that, which Rachel explains that since the very beginning, FUG was determined to kill Bam and his companions at all cost by filling the engine core with Boiling Acid.
Rachel continues to explain that to FUG, this event that just went down on the Hell Train is just the start of their greater story. That no matter what Bam and company achieves, everything will flow in the direction that FUG has established. At the viewing platform for Hoaqin's team, Yura is seen standing alone as she looks upon the Boiling Acid pouring into the room.
The idol admits that she never expected this kind of finale to happen, and figures that at this point, there's not much else she can do except get ready for her next concert. Yura jumps off the platform, and appears at Hoaqin's location. To Hoaqin's confusion, Yura opens up her luggage carrier, and sucks him in. She yells out to Rachel to start running as Rachel goes for the exit of the Submarine of Choice. Before leaving, Khun calls out to her, which causes Rachel to inform of at least one thing.
Rachel explains to Khun that she plans to stay on the Hell Train in order to reach the 43rd Floor. The location known for being where the Irregular, Enryu, had killed a Floor Guardian, as well as being the location where Bam's Thorn was discovered. Rachel states that if she gets there, and manages to find another Thorn piece, it may lead to them finding out what Bam's true identity. The revelation surprises Khun hearing that even Rachel doesn't exactly know what Bam really is.
Rachel tells Khun that even she is curious in finding out who Bam really is, and gives her good-bye to the blue-haired Regular stating that they should be seeing each other somewhere down the line again, but only if Khun manages to continue surviving here. He calls out to Rachel to stop as she jumps out of the Submarine of Choice to reunite with Yura. Bam catches the sight of Rachel in the distance about to rejoin with Yura, and calls out to her. In return, Rachel warns Bam that he'd better prepare himself as the next time they meet, the two of them will be enemies.
At that same time, Yuri and Evan make their way through the Hell Train to reach Bam's location. An enraged Yuri claims that Pedro is a mustache bastard for pulling something like this. She turns to Evan, and points out how it grates her nerves how Pedro showed them the path to reach Bam. Yuri thinks back to ten minutes earlier when she was still at Pedro's location, and sees on the massive video screen that Bam managed to defeat Hoaqin. She hears Bam's companions all shouting in excitement that they won, which Yuri says to Evan excitedly that she knew Bam was never going to lose. The defeated Pedro however, finds it unbelievable that Hoaqin lost since the Dallar Show rules were fixed to be in Hoaqin's favor. He also calls Hoaqin a fool for failing here even though FUG was nice enough to provide him the final clone on a silver platter. However, Pedro thinks to himself that in the end, none of this matters since White's resurrection isn't an urgent goal.
Pedro calls out to Yuri that since a bets a bet, he will tell her where Viole is, which excites the Princess hearing that it's finally happening. Pointing Yuri in the direction of a black orb within the room, Pedro tells the Princess to take it as the path to the boy lies within it. However, he warns Yuri and Evan that if she chooses to follow the orb's path it won't matter how quickly they move since its still going to take up to four hours to reach Bam's location, which shocks Yuri. Coughing up blood, Pedro warns her that it's already scheduled for the Boiling Acid to fill the engine core room by now. He assures her that no matter how quickly Yuri and Evan move through the Hell Train, they will not be able to stop the boy's death from being melted by the acid. Pedro leaves off wishing Princess Yuri good luck in reaching Bam.
Returning to the present, Yuri and Evan continue to run through the Hell Train tunnels as she yells out in anger that Pedro was a sly bastard all the way to his last breath. She asks Evan what they're supposed to do, and if he knows any shortcuts, which Evan informs her of the bad news that they have no chance of making it to Bam since the path Pedro's orb has provided them is such a complicated path. He also provides even more bad news that it appears all the other paths towards Bam's location at the engine core have apparently been completely erased.
Continuing to run through the Hell Train tunnels, Evan is about to conclude that there seems to be no way to catch up before the Boiling Acid kills Bam, but it's at this point that something catches Evan's attention. Evan informs Yuri that he seems to have caught onto something, which confuses the Princess asking what's going on. He explains that he found a way to meet with Bam, which excites Yuri asking Evan to start leading the way.
However, Evan informs Yuri that there's a catch. He warns Yuri that should she take the path he's about to tell her, it could put her own life in danger. Yuri remains silent knowing that Evan is serious about this as he asks her if she's still willing to see Bam no matter what. Yuri asks even what the path is, which Evan explains that beneath them is a waterway leading to the engine core that's filled with Boiling Acid. He warns Yuri that the Boiling Acid is made from an unknown substance that only Workshop knows about.
Evan also informs the Princess that the waterway is definitely the shortest path to the engine core where Bam is at. Evan states that the plan would be to ride the waterway of Boiling Acid, but warns Yuri that it would require the Princess to use more of her power to survive the Boiling Acid. Even figures that at that point, the Guardian of the Floor would surely notice her as a Ranker using too much power on a low D-ranker Floor.
As a result, the danger to Yuri he mentioned earlier would be that she would have to use a low shinsu amount in the waterway to try to protect herself from the Boiling Acid. Evan's explanation shocks Yuri repeating the fact that she will have to pass through the Boiling Acid filled waterway with just her normal body, which Evan agrees that such a path is too much of a dangerous gamble.
He points out the trouble they would get in if something was to happen to Princee Yuri's body, but Yuri answers that none of this is a big deal for her, which confuses Evan. She says once more that this actually wasn't as big a deal as she thought since she assumed Evan's serious tone earlier meant that they were going to have a much bigger problem to deal with. Unable to believe what he's hearing, Evan yells at Yuri reminding her that the Boiling Acid is a terrifying liquid that only Workshop knows how to control it.
Evan admits that there wouldn't be a problem if Yuri went all out, but given that she can't here on the D-rank Regular's 38th Floor, the danger she will be in is legit. However, Yuri interrupts his counter-argument with a smack on the head.
Yuri asks if Evan knows at the moment what's important right now, and points out that even if there's a 0.5% chance of her dying to the Boiling Acid, there's so much they could accomplish if they took this little waterway risk to save Bam from the Boiling Acid right now. She also makes it clear to Evan that this is a moment where they could save people that are about to die, which catches Evan's attention. Giving off a grin, Yuri assures her guide friend that they can save them.
At that same time in the engine core, Bam calls out to Rachel once more as he watches her get sucked into Yura's luggage carrier, and get transported out of the room getting filled with Boiling Acid. Within their cage, Cassano informs Traveller it's about time for them to get going as well, which the latter agrees to do so. Giving one last look as Bam, Traveller apologizes to Jue Viole Grace for having to continue being with Rachel's team. He figures that the next time the two of them meet, they will probably be enemies. Bam's companions remain confused as to what Rachel's group is trying to accomplish, but a moment later, witness Yura use Special Skill: Teleport on herself, Cassano, and Traveller, to transport them all out of the engine core room.
At that point, Bam and his companions realize that they're now alone within the engine core being filled up with Boiling Acid as Prince is heard complaining that he should have used this chance to order Cassano to tell him out to heal Horyang of his coma. Meanwhile, Blarode and Quaetro are the only ones remaining within the cage for Viole's faction.
Quaetro yells out in excitement that the teleportation skill Yura pulled off to get her team out of the room was amazing. He then asks Blarode what they should do now since the Dallar Show game appears to have ended. Seeing that the unconscious Buelsar and Raguel were left behind by Team Rachel, Quaetro also asks what to do about them since he heard earlier that Blarode is interested in the two.
Using his shinsu power to break open a hole in the cage, Blarode states that the answer is obvious for them to pack up their things and leave. In return, Quaetro gives off a laugh, and follows after him through the cage opening. Seeing the falling Boiling Acid before them however, the confused Quaetro asks how they're supposed to deal with this, which Blarode answers that they should probably jump to the ledge where Bam and company are at first.
Meanwhile, Poro gets up on the ledge after jumping from his referee platform. He's left hating on the Train Conductor realizing that teleporting Hoaqin's team out of the engine room to evade this Boiling Acid trap was why Pedro wanted to bring Yura to the Hell Train in the first place. Shielding himself in fear at the Boiling Acid falling toward him, Poro figures that it's all over at this point, and is going to die along with the rest of Viole's group.
At Bam's location, Rak orders the exhausted black turtle to snap out of it since they got to start moving to escape the engine core room. Rak reminds Bam that they still need to get Khun out of the Submarine of Choice, which grabs Bam's attention to the point of making a shinsu platform for him and Rak to fly to Khun's location. Ehwa calls out to Bam to stop since the Boiling Acid is already getting too close, but Bam and Rak get moving on the boy's shinsu platform anyway.
At the Submarine of Choice, Khun is now on his own annoyed that Rachel got the best of him here escaping with the help of Yura's teleportation skill. He's left wondering how he's supposed to get out of this room being filled with Boiling Acid, and remembers back to how Rachel told him that she's headed for the 43rd Floor, which is known as the Floor of Death where the Irregular, Enryu, was able to kill a Tower Guardian. He states to himself that no matter what, he needs to after follow Rachel. A moment later, the Sweetfish from the Dallar Show reappears next to Khun.
Meanwhile, Bam and Rak continue to fly towards Khun's location on the shinsu platform. Seeing the falling Boiling Acid before them, Rak orders the black turtle to hurry up since the blue turtle could end up dying soon, which causes Bam to worry about Khun. However, appearing out of the Boiling Acid is the massive Sweetfish, which surprises Bam and Rak. The Sweetfish then opens his mouth that was housing Khun within, and drops him toward Bam and Rak. Bam manages to grab hold of Khun's hand before falling away from them, which Khun then summons a lighthouse to stand on. Looking to the Sweetfish, Khun is left only seeing it's eye as the fish gets covered by the falling Boiling Acid.
Rak calls out to the Sweetfish turtle hoping it survived as Khun gives a moment of silence knowing that the fish sacrificed itself to get Khun out of the Boiling Acid. Bam asks if Khun's alright, which the latter answers that he's fine. Seeing the rest of Bam's companions, Khun reminds Bam and Rak that this is not the time for them to get emotional. Rak orders Khun for turtle number two to think of himself to get them all out of here, which enrages Khun asking what Rak thinks he is. He also asks in anger why Rak suddenly sees him as turtle number two.
Getting back to the problem at hand, Khun thinks to himself asking what he's supposed to do to get them all out since the Boiling Acid is pouring into the engine core room from all directions. He questions that there must be a way to get out, but it's at that point that he notices the guide, Hwaryun looking off in a direction.
Wondering what it is that Hwaryun is looking at, Khun turns his attention to the location she's staring at, and sees the ceiling spot where the Boiling Acid is being poured in. Understanding what Hwaryun is thinking of, Khun orders Bam and Rak to head for the Boiling Acid waterfall. Rak asks if Khun is insane making them get close to where the Boiling Acid is falling at, but Khun ignores it, and orders the rest of Bam's companions to also head for the Boiling Acid waterfall.
Boro remains confused as to what's going on, pointing out how they're being asked to get close to the acid, but Sachi points out how they don't have much choice at this point but to trust them. Sachi scolds Boro that the latter is always too negative about the situation at hand as he summons his thornbush shinsu. He creates a massive rose vine for Bam's companions to all climb up to the location of Khun, Rak, and Bam.
Sachi gives the order for everyone to start climbing as Bam's companions all begin to do so. In the back of the group, Blarode and Quaetro are seen having rejoined them, but are also carrying Rachel's former teammates, Buelsar and Raguel, with them. Khun gives the order to Bam to start moving as well, which the latter agrees to do, but asks why Khun is making them go towards the Boiling Acid waterfall.
Khun answers that it's because he noticed the guide, Hwaryun, looking at it, which implied to him that she noticed a possible path to get out, which surprises Bam. Khun thinks to himself that he's not sure about this, but given the fact that Rachel, who's being using Emile to mess with the guide's navigator ability, has now disappeared, it's totally possible that Hwaryun's sense to see the true paths has returned. He figures that they will only know for sure once they reach the location where the Boiling Acid is being poured into the engine core.
With Bam's companions all climbing up Sachi's rose vine to reach their location, Khun figures that they will all be able to make it out alive. Boro and Sachi, who are carrying up the injured Daniel, beg him to hold on just a little bit longer. Suddenly, everyone is able to sense something coming as the Boiling Acid is seen exploding at the hole where it's being poured into the engine core room.
Bam and company notice two people appearing out of the Boiling Acid hole as they're left confused as to who they are. Seeing Princess Yuri, and her guide, Evan Edroch, floating in the air before him, Bam looks upon them in shock recognizing who the two of them are. Bam calls out Yuri's name, which the Princess replies back that it's been a long time since they've last seen one another. Yuri points out how it worried her a bit that she would have to go around the engine core room saving everyone under the belief that everyone would be so spread out from the Boiling Acid trap. However, she congratulates Bam and company for being so awesome at figuring out that the hole where the Boiling Acid was being poured in was their only path of possible escape out of the engine core.
Turning her attention to Bam again, Yuri points out how he appears to be a bit taller these days, and has even strengthened his body a bit as well. She also points out how Bam's face still looks like a baby. Giving off a grin however, she claims that he appears to be grown up despite still having a baby face.
Beginning to summon her shinsu on her finger, Princess Yuri announces to Bam that their emotional reunion should wait until they've all gotten out of here. Evan warns her once more about going all out with her shinsu here, but Yuri replies back that the 38th Floor Guardian should be ok with it as long as she just uses it for a second to help a group of Regulars escape from the Hell Train's engine core room. Evan continues to worry about it as he watches Yuri form protective shinsu bubbles on everyone, which Yuri assures him once more that the Guardian will definitely let this one slide. She yells out that it's time to get going as all the bubbles holding Yuri and company are seen making their way through the hole pouring the Boiling Acid.
A brief moment later, Yuri, Evan, as well as Bam and his companions, are seen being dropped out of the shinsu bubbles into a Hell Train hallway. Yuri calls out to Bam as all his companions are left wondering who the strong Ranker woman is. Bam asks how Yuri managed to get here, but to everyone's shock, they watch as the Ranker Princess gives Bam a hug. She congratulates Bam for a job well done, and orders him not to say anything else for now since he deserves a moment of rest at this point. In return, Bam agrees to do so.
