“Satella, take a look at this!” The owner of the Rubik Cube of Knowledge went to a window and saw what her friend was seeing. The thing was massive! About 80 meters height and perhaps weighing as much as maybe a megalodon. It had four legs and a mouth shaped similar to a T-rex. Its legs were similar to a bullfrog while it had a tail that seems like a scorpion.

“What in the world is this?”

“Whatever it is, they really want the world to never know.” This conversation happened on November 26th, 2020. Satella L’Drem the owner of the legendary piece The Triangle Ring of Illusions and Annika Russo the owner of the legendary piece The Rubik Cube of Knowledge were good friends that became reporters two years ago. They were the ultimate dynamic duo. With the knowledge of the past thanks to her legendary piece and Satella’s Ring of Illusion allowing them to deceive people who will hide their corruption from others the two rose quickly among the ranks of reporters to a point of getting their very own news network Stellar And Russ News or SRN for short. However, since they were honest reporters they gained enemies among other networks who helped cover some of the corrupted people. There was that one time that one of them try to use a group to hack Annika’s social media account and write fake articles in an attempt to destroy the credibility of SRN. It could've worked if it wasn’t for the fact that Annika is a well rounded white-hat hacker herself. Satella just needed to bait the man into telling what his plan was without him knowing he was under the spell of the Triangle Ring Of Illusions. That was the first time they realized how horrible the world of news really is. Anything to keep those ratings instead of having the integrity of an honest news network who report on the stories with research and tough questions. Instead of using bait questions and exaggerated articles and even make yourself the story violating the rule of being a journalist: “Look and Write the news, Never become the news.” It has a deep meaning to it. If you are creating the news never make it an opinion piece and make yourself the headlines. Always make it a piece of real journalistic news with facts and evidence.

“What in the world is this?” Satella told her friend as she holds her camera high.

“Whatever it is, they really want the world to never know.” This was the scoop of the year...NO it could be the scoop of the Century!!

“I see...” Satella knows the risks of being here. But, this was worth it. Question is: Why did that man trying to hide this from people? This was definitely a tool of war no doubt about it! The President needs to know about this!!

“We better get out of here before they discover something is off.”

“You are right. We should take photos. We need as much evidence to show the president in case things get out of hand.” Is a good thing her camera doesn’t have a flash effect. Taking a few photos the blonde-haired female took angles. This thing was so big that it was difficult to take a whole picture of it.

“That should be all we need. Let’s go our 10 minutes are almost over.”

“Yeah.”

The two female reporters got out of there with barely a second to spare. The illusion of them being here should’ve worn off by now.

“Any other questions, ladies?”

“No...thanks for answering our question Mr. Van, we’ll make sure that the world knows about your progress,” Satella answered. The world will know about the progress...just not the progress he thinks they will report on. The world will know about this weapon of mass destruction. They will know about The Armageddon.

()

The Ocean is a terrifying place. Only 9.5% percent have been discovered throughout its history. It can be as beautiful as it can be dangerous. From a new specie of shark to new small life forms of fish this mass of water has made oceanographers very excited about the discoveries that haven’t been shown to the world. Sometimes...there things in the Ocean that shouldn’t be discovered.

Aeris has seen this thing before. The pink-haired remembered she got a glimpse of the previous owners of the legendary pieces her very own and Jeremiah’s. So this was The Armageddon. It was bigger up close and as terrifying. They were swimming with a true monster of the sea.

“Might want to pick up the pace here!” Harry told the orange-haired girl. Kula ignored Harry. She already knows they’re in a jam she doesn’t need the black-haired boy stating the obvious!!

*Bam*

Everyone braces themselves as the huge monster tackles the sub sideways. They were all sitting ducks for the big weapon of mass destruction.

The Armageddon screech once more before swimming at high speed upward before going as fast as a torpedo straight to them.

“Hang on!!” Kula said steering the sub to the other side and barely avoiding the massive thing. It scrapped the side of the sub thou…

“How much farther?!” Sexan asked Kula.

“Not much!!” Would they make it in time? That was a nasty sound when they scraped by the big thing.

The Armageddon made a fast U-turn before making a roaring screech and swimming super fast like a shark that has smelled blood in the water. The Armageddon opened its big mouth but before it could eat the submarine a huge laser passed the sub and hit the 80-meter mass weapon of destruction. This gave the teens a chance to reach the surface and be safe...for now.

“We made it.” Said Richard glad to see the sun after being under the ocean for heck knows how many hours.

“But who threw that laser?” Kula questioned. That laser looked familiar, the last time she saw with a laser similar to that one was…

“Thanks for making sure to lure LeDutch to us.” Said, someone.

The teens looked to the left to see 4 aircraft with people inside. The voice came from a red-haired boy holding a dual blade laser rifle with a circular shape hilt that had a tube in the middle so it can be held in place in case he needed to use it in close range. The 4 aircraft were shaped like a disk with tubes on the four corners extending diagonally. In the middle, a huge silver cannon was seeing. They guess that was the cause of the laser they saw a few minutes ago that saved them from being machine food.

“You…!” Kula recognized one of them. The silver-haired woman.

“Majestic 12!!” That’s Majestic 12?! They were the ones that…

“Hmm? Oh, I recognized you. So you are still alive, where is your blue-haired buddy?!” Marik said quickly recognizing Kula.

“Kula Rowan, If you’re alive and you are with Leos Kishima rescue team, I assume that your group LeGrace is no longer alive.” Kula’s silence confirms Red’s observation.

“Who are you?” Asked Richard Kurosagi. He knows who the group is, I mean Kula screamed that even if people were flying above the clouds would have heard it. He wants to know specifically the names that are members of the special group that he guesses fought LeGrace in the past.

“...Silvett, It’s moving…” Red said completely ignoring thew brown-haired boy’s question.

The silver-haired woman checks with her very own goggles and Red was indeed right...their leader senses are like none other. He wasn’t wearing their goggles that specialized in tracking any sign of life beyond the surface of the Ocean and he still can track The Armageddon without them?!

“We should follow according to our data from Superior the target is Japan.”

“Right…” He looks toward the brown-haired boy.

“Your question...I do not have a reason to answer it. Just let us take care of this, you already fulfill your very own mission. Do not get in the way of ours.” Red told and warned the group.

“Also, Kula Rowan. If you try to look for us for revenge, do not bother. Even with your second evolution form, You are no match for Superior nor our technology I do not think anyone in this world can.” Red told the orange-haired small teen with confidence.

“…” Kula has a feeling that he was correct. The last time they fought with their secondary forms of the M.I.S.T. they barely escaped with their lives thanks to Rusher’s and her legendary pieces. Although, the reason was that it was new to them and the secondary effects of it were too risky to stay for long in that form. Now she can stay in that form for an infinite amount. And the Superior he mentions...it’s stronger than her secondary form? That meant that the person was in the same strength level as Aeris in her Nastoyashchaya Svoboda or even stronger. If that is the case...then revenge for her fallen teammates was out of reach at this point.

“Let’s go…”

“Sorry, but we can’t do that.” Said Richard to Red.

“Hmm?”

“Our mission of rescuing Alice might be over but...Alice’s home country is in danger, we can’t let that happen. It is also the home of this year’s world tournament. So if anything we’re as much involved in this as you all are!” Red had a familiar feeling on the boy. That feeling was the same as the one he felt with Leos Kishima. Once someone has his mindset on something...it is very hard to change that person's mind.

“Red…”

“Let us go Silvett. We’re wasting time with these kids.” Red told the silver-haired woman before entering the aircraft they were in.

“...Yes…” He must’ve seen The Armageddon moving toward the east. They know what LeDutch’s target is, they cannot allow such a weapon of mass destruction arrive near close to any city that stands between the wanted criminal and his revenge.

With one last glance toward the orange-haired small teen, the silver-haired woman went back to the aircraft before said aircraft move to the east at an incredible speed twice as fast as a jet.

“Richard.”

“Humph, I never thought you had it in ya. Thou, you are right, that thing messes with one of my dad’s business partners that becomes our business whenever those people like it or not.” Harry knew how devastating it will be if Omega Corp loses one of its biggest core bases. There is no way in hell that he will allow such a thing to happen!!

“Can we even keep going in here? I mean it will not be a good idea considering what happened last time.” Frederick said.

“And you have a better idea? Because swimming there will not be it either.” Harry told the elf archer.

“That’s not what I mean Harry!!”

“Kula.” While the two boys go into an argument The red-haired teen approached the only survivor of the M.I.S.T. seeing the people who took away her father and being unable to do anything must be eating her inside.

“We can get there before them.”

“How?” This time Aeris stepped in. Kula's lips curled upwards.

“They’re not the only ones with an aircraft with speed.” Kula had a trick up her sleeves just on the occasion this happened. Being always two steps ahead of your opponent can always bring an advantage to you.

Kula pushed a button before something came out of the water. It was transparent and barely visible before it revealed itself. It was a huge submarine size similar to the Nautilus submarine. It hovered above the sea before a pair of stairs appeared from the bottom and connected to the submarine they were standing in.

“Woah! AWESOME!” That was the response of the brown-haired leader of Omega after seeing the sub-like aircraft.

“Let go, the sooner we get there the more time we have to think about how to stop The Armageddon.” Entering the aircraft the teens sat on square-shaped chairs that seemed very comfy, and they were it was like sitting in one of those massage seats.

“Seat belts first.” Kula joked before pressing a button that put two lasers like belts on the teens before she pushes a button. It was a good thing she did because the speed this thing was going they would be flying to the back. They have experienced a situation like that when they were in the elevator of Omega Corp...not an experience they want to relive thank you very much!

Troy was remembering how he and Red weren’t at odds. The little red-haired boy looked up to him as an awesome father. He got inspired to become a detective himself from him. His mother was always kind and supportive, a good wife who cared for her children and helped her husband whenever he couldn’t find a solution to the mysteries that he couldn’t solve. She was a one of a kind mom/wife it is why he did this job for a living. Funny she was a client before being his wife. Solving the disappearance of her father was a long grinding one. Some of the leads ended up in a dead-end situation or back to the start. That was until one day he discovered something...something that was only found by his client then referring something to a rusted gear inside a clock-tower.

“Troy we're almost there,” Dianne told the detective as he puffs on his smoke before blowing it and speaking to her.

“Thanks…” The man looks at the window...nothing but the sea but in a few minutes, he will arrive there. He will arrive where it all ended...it will begin again.

“Coming back here...Cecilia would’ve loved to come back here.” It was the place he proposed to her after a few months of solving the disappearance of her father Malabar. Cecilia Inglaterra was glad that her father was alive and well. The wife of Troy and Mother of Red decided to become the secretary of the private eye himself before...that incident happened. This was personal for him. For years he had a feeling that their final clash wasn’t actually the final clash. No, this time...this time it will be indeed the end. Even if he has to fight The Armageddon, fight against his son, and the entire Majestic 12, he will deliver the final shot. He has to do it...he has to put an end to LeDutch with the gun that he is holding in his hand.

()

The Armageddon was swimming at a fast pace almost reaching the deepest underwater trench on Earth: The Mariana Trench. LeDutch could feel it. Soon...very soon he will arrive in Japan and when that occurs, he will finally put an end to everything. That laser attack stunned him but he knew who was responsible for it. He guesses that they were following him this moment. Good...that meant that she might come out of whatever hellhole she is in. This weapon with Dione and Ragnarok as an engine will make sure that it will never run out of power and its attack will be devastating enough to blow through a city in a single laser. He is confident that if he uses a max power laser it will destroy the country itself but he will not risk such as it will leave him vulnerable to their attacks.

“Hmm?” The Armageddon’s sonar picked something...something huge. LeDutch wonders what it is...Hmm, he is very deep in the ocean, there is no visibility but he can see the dark ocean thanks to a green light emitting from The Armageddon’s body. Whatever it is...it should be a good test for his weapon of mass destruction.

()

Flying in the sky at a lower ground, Team Omega and Kula were thinking of plans to stop LeDutch from destroying Japan.

“Hey…”

“What is it?” Kula said to Harry while still focusing on navigating.

“How much do you know about the origin of the legendary piece.” The Origin? The only person she knows that had that knowledge was…

“...How much do YOU know? Depending on your answer that’s how much I know about it.” The orange-haired girl answered the son of Leos Kishima. Harry looks toward the window.

“I know that they were made before the first owners of our families very long ago.”

“I see...that much. I assume he told you about the book he claims the royal family in India has.”

“Pretty much,” Harry told her. He didn’t want to remember that they will have to look at every grain of sand of that giant of a country. That seems too much space to look for a single book that tells who the legendary pieces belong to and what the true original purpose of the Creator of said pieces had planned before he went insane.

“And you believe him?”

“Is there any choice in it? He could've been talking bullshit for all I care. However, we had someone who can tell if that guy was lying or not,”

“The owner of the legendary piece the Sharp of Sinfonia Genre Lynn.”

“Yeah, her. She said that he wasn’t lying because of his rhythm or whatever the hell she means. Besides, any clue to know about these things that you guys know the better to find a way to counter them when the day comes where all of them are together. This is the result of having almost half of them in one place...imagine what would happen if all of them are in the same place.”

“There might be an all scale war.”

“Precisely.”

“Are we there yet?” His stupid rival asked the orange-haired small teen.

“No, Idiot, we haven’t.” Answered Harry.

“HEY!!” Richard was going to argue further but then something happened.

*Boom*

“What the hell was that!?” Harry said as Kula made a sudden halt before seeing the water surface break from below. That was definitely caused by a missile hitting something nearby. That meant that…

“Guys, Look at that!!” Alice said pointing at the thing that she saw on the porthole-like windows. Outside there was a carcass floating up, it was huge around 100 meters long...It was a sperm whale...or was it. It looked like one except for the teeth they were 44.2 centimeters long. That thing would tear the aircraft they have in half easily heck it could swallow them whole without question. Yet here it is dead with half of its face blown into chunks of meat. This was the power of The Armageddon.

“That’s…!” Kula said looking at it. Even with half of its face blown into bits, she recognized this mammal. It was said to be extinct. However, this one seems to be almost six times the size of the max size that thing could’ve become during its time! If The Armageddon can kill this prehistoric being with a single missile then…!

“A Livyatan?!” Aeris knows about the history of this predator. It was the rival of the megalodon and they fought for the food from the ocean. How did one survive and get this big none less!!? Was it killed by that giant thing they saw roaming around them as they escaped The hideout?! If that is the case...they have their hands full. Can they stop it with the strength that they currently have now?!

“A what?!” Harry said.

“It is a whale similar to a sperm whale. You can say this is our Moby Dick...well was…” Frederick told Kishima as he saw the carcass.

“Ugh, my head hurts.” Their leader said. The brown-haired owner of the legendary piece The Diamond Dragonite is not good at listening to history, explaining that to him is like explaining computer parts to a farmer...it will never work.

“We need to continue on we also need to ascend we’re in a dangerous position.” Harry cannot argue with the orange-haired girl. The got a close call last time they faced that thing, they might not get lucky to escape if that thing is still roaming here.

*Wail*

The sound of a whale with a combination of a bat was heard by all the teens. It was close...very close.

“I don’t like the sound of that!” Frederick said aware of the dangerous monster that blew the giant carnivorous whale’s face into the deep dark ocean.

“…”

“Richard?” Aeris looked at her childhood friend who has a serious look on his face.

“Alice We might need your strength.” Alice’s strength?

“Eh?!”

“Hey Rick you are not suggesting that Alice use her legendary piece, are you?” Alice looks at her legendary piece...The third most dangerous piece. She knows that even with her powerhouse form it will not be enough to stop that thing...it is why Richard is suggesting her to use the Sphere of Rage to double, triple even so far to make her strength 12 times that size. The thing is how much time does she need to get to a point that she can stop that thing with a single blow from her pole before she puts herself at risk. She is told that she gets exhausted after she uses the Sphere of Rage’s ability. She hasn’t awakened it either. It might take forever and she isn’t sure if it is enough.

“Yes.”

“Kurosagi, you are nuts!! Our legendary pieces are one thing. Heck, my fake piece takes some of my life force but I can bear with it!! This is a different scenario if Alice goes beyond the time limit of what she can stay for long then she might die for nothing!” The red-haired flinch at those words.

“Besides, what if she loses control!?” Sexan advocated for not going with the idea of risking Alice just to stop this thing. They can find an alternative way of stopping it!! There has to be a way!!

“I don’t think we have a choice in this matter.” This time Harry Kishima stepped in for the brown-haired rival of his. As much as he hates to admit it, that Armageddon must have strong steel that their weapons will not damage. Besides, their Capacity Powers aren’t fully recovered, so the only one who can go to a ridiculous amount of it in a matter of a minute will be the red-haired owner of the Sphere of Rage. Being a powerhouse is a bonus for it. If they need to stall for 2 minutes...so be it! No way he is letting that thing destroy Japan!! It will not be best for business.

“I’ll...Do it.”

“Alice!”

“I just need to control my anger, right?”

“Yes...it will not be easy thou. Your Sphere of Rage will do whatever it takes to make you go out of control with anger.”

“You mean that shrilling sound I hear before I go blank?” Alice asked the orange-haired teen.

“The very same one.”

“...O-okay...Um…” They can tell. She is nervous, having to rely on her to stop some monster with her monster strength that she gets from the legendary piece is kind of nerve-racking she is not going to lie. She wonders if Richard feels this way every single time they have to rely on him to win the matches or when he was fighting against Rusher?

“I believe in you, Alice…”

“Richard…” That gave her a bit of confidence. She can do her best in controlling her anger all to save her country and her parents!

“We will buy time for you, Alice. Aeris, Yuma, and Kula if anything goes wrong knock her out as fast as you can.” Richard told.

“Got it…” the pink-haired teen said to her childhood friend.

“...Ugh, I don’t like this idea, but...if Alice said that she can...Alright.” Sexan after many debates goes with the idea. He doesn’t like it, but considering the options, if there were any aside from this...they will have to stick with this crazy idea that Richard Kurosagi proposed.

“Humph, try to not mess it up!” Harry told the red-haired girl.

“...I won’t.”

“Humph…”

“Alright, Kula…”

“Don’t worry there is an alternate exit from the top.”

“Thank you, I thought we needed to get out from below!” So...the boy didn’t completely think this thru...that’s Richard Kurosagi for you.

“We’ll stay here too, we don’t have the ability to fly there, and the more people who stand by Alice side the better,” Frederick said to the brown-haired leader of Team Omega.

“Sure. Seems is just the three of us on this one.”

“The fewer people the better, I don’t want to get distracted by saving losers.”

“Who says we will be a distraction to you, it could be the other way around!!” Sexan argued before his metal wings were released.

“Calm down guys…” Richard said trying to cool the two off as his aura wings appeared.

“Well, are you both ready?” The brown-haired boy said seeing Harry in his Lightning Flash form second stage: Yellow and Sexan with his fu tao held in both arms his fake piece glowing. In response, the owners of the real legendary pieces' artifacts glowed with equal intensity.

“Then let’s Go!!” Kula opened the emergency door from the top and the three male teens flew to the outside before the aircraft went to the air to keep themselves distanced from the ocean below.

“Good luck you three.” were Adel’s words to the three perhaps most powerful warriors of the group.

“So...how do we lure it? Does anyone have any worms the size of a skyscraper for bait?” Richard asked the other two.

“Do we looked like fishermen to you?” Answered Sexan back.

“Hehe…” The three teens heard the wail of the giant monster responsible for the death of the bigger monster floating below them. Is near, they can sense it. Looking down they could see a giant shadow creeping below the ocean below them.

“Well, here goes nothing.”

“Humph!” All three teens get ready to unleash their attacks.

“White Dragon Strike Fang Cross!!”

“Master Thunderstorm Strike!!”

“Hyper Angel Savage Strike!!”

Using their best attacks the teens unleashed it in the direction of the shadow resulting in the combination of the three attacks to split the Ocean in half for a short period of time. For a split second, they saw the thing. It was massive there was no doubt about that and the attacks hit the thing a few seconds after they saw it creating an explosion. The explosion created some tidal waves. They are sure that some Tsunami warnings will be enabled by the countries near it. However, did that attack caught the attention of The Armageddon. Answer…?!

*Gleam*

All three teens had to dodge an incoming huge beam from below the ocean.

“Whoa…” Richard said as he and the other two teens looked to the sky. The clouds...were split opened from that beam. If they weren’t in this form they are sure they would not be able to live through an attack like that if it hits them. Heck, they cannot be sure if they will live it regardless.

Another wail before the thing finally got out of the ocean and face to face with the teens.

“Looks like we have its attention.” Said Sexan.

“No shit, Sherlock.” Harry retorted back to the brown-haired owner of the fake piece.

“Why do you three get in the way of my goal?” That thing spoke? No, it seems that someone was speaking through an intercom.

“Humph, You think that we don’t have goals in that place too? You’re the one who is getting in the way.” Both Sexan and Richard sweat-dropped at that. Even in this situation, the black-haired teen-only thought is making sure the world tournament goes as plan.

“Besides, You would’ve forced us to get involved anyway.” He does have a point.

“As much as I hate to admit it, he is right. I met someone in that country, met a lot of friends there too. No way I will let someone destroy that.” Sexan told the one controlling The Armageddon.

“We all have goals LeDutch and they’re connected to that place, And there is no way that we will allow a megalomaniac like you to take away the things that we hold dear!!”

“...I see...no wonder The Organization has a huge interest in you Richard Kurosagi.” The Organization?

“Good Timing too, maybe you will give The Armageddon a better fight than the adult Livyatan did, I want to test it’s power before I unleash it to Japan. Don’t worry I will make sure that your legendary piece is safe and sound with The Organization.” The Armageddon wails at the three teens before all three split up from the tail of the machine. Said scorpion tail charged a laser and aimed it at Sexan who flew away with his speed to avoid it. The laser follows up the other two teens who dodged it in their very own way.

“Is that all you got?!” Harry told the big weapon of mass destruction before said beast revealed from its shoulders 32 missile launchers on each shoulder all loaded with a torpedo size missile.

“YOU HAVE TO OPEN YOUR MOUTH!” Sexan yelled to the black-haired male.

The Armageddon unleashed the assault on the three teens who dodged the missiles that to their surprise were heat seekers.

“That’s just God damn GREAT!!” Harry said as he saw one-third of the missiles coming straight at him and him dodging them all before getting tired of it and making sure they were lined up.

“FINE EAT THIS!!” The black-haired male swung upwards and unleashed a massive Master Thunderstorm Strike that engulfed all of the missiles before this melted and exploded. The explosion aftershock created another dose of waves. That will likely form a tsunami or two...probably a mega type one.

Sexan did a different method than the rival of Richard Kurosagi. The owner of the fake diamond piece uses his agility to dodge all the missiles until they were lined on opposite sides. At the last minute, Sexan moved out of the way resulting in every heat-seeking missile to collide with each other.

“Phew.”

On Richard Kurosagi’s side, The brown-haired boy was dodging the missiles and slicing some of them in half. Richard however, was doing this as high in the sky as possible to prevent any aftershock of the potential explosions that the missiles will create that might result in small tsunami waves.

“Ha!!” Using his White Dragon Strike Fang Kurosagi took half of the missiles that were left before avoiding the remaining one.

“Man, this thing doesn’t know when to quit!” He was being careful with his Capacity Power and the attacks. They all have been doing so thou...well he assumes Harry did because it will be dangerous if that guy uses all of his power...any of them using all of their power in their attacks was dangerous it would result in the earth’s core being cut in half! If that happens...bye, bye precious planet. Besides, he hasn’t fully recovered to his Max Capacity Power, and from the looks of it neither does the other two. Harry seems to be the highest with 30,000,000 followed by Sexan with 20,000,000 and him being 24,000,000. He was able to scan The Armageddon it was lower than Harry’s Capacity power but higher than him and Sexan’s: 28,000,000. Yet, this thing can fight Harry and them combined.

“Where were you?” Asked Harry after the boy descended from the cloudy sky.

“Taking a first-class tour on the missile express.”

“We still have a huge target to take care of,” Sexan told the two teens after appearing in the middle.

They agreed it has only been a minute since they began this fight. Richard was wondering if Alice was able to control it for that long?

“Ah, I can see why you three were able to defeat LeGrace and my second in command Salamander,” LeDutch told the three teens.

“We weren’t…”

“Hey, Idiot! Don’t let him get into your head.” Harry yelled at Richard. Sometimes the boy can get easily goaded by just looking down on the efforts of his loser friends. Hence why he is always alone. Who needs friends when you have everything that is needed to be the strongest player on the planet. He is the son of the owner of the biggest online virtual game company in the world, that is everything that he needs to thrive in society.

“We’ll stop your Armageddon LeDutch!”

“Fufu…I do not think so Sexan Arifer. Are your parents doing fine in Japan?”

“...” Sexan did not answer the question. Instead, the boy just unleashes a huge hook-shaped slash toward the giant mecha. His family is fine but he knows that LeDutch will go after it if he even divulges the whereabouts of his family. They’re in Japan that is for sure but what part of Japan is the info that he will never divulge to the leader of Rois et Reines.

“When will you learn?” The attack didn’t do any damage to the giant mechanical weapon of mass destruction.

“You talk like a strong person but you hide behind this heap of metal. Humph, some leader of a criminal terrorist organization you turn out to be.” Taunted Harry to LeDutch.

“You will know your place, boy. While you were Crawling and drooling on the floor, I was unleashing fear upon this world.”

“And look at what it leads you to,” Harry told LeDutch.

Harry was just stalling for time. While he detests doing so, he wasn’t going to go against a strategy that will stop this thing in its tracks. Especially if it involves saving one of the biggest arcade stations owned by his father.

The Armageddon leaped in the air before going towards them like a torpedo. The three teens used their speed to dodge the open-mouthed metal monster’s attack resulting in the weapon of mass destruction creating a huge splash that will definitely result in a mega-tsunami for sure. This was getting too dangerous. They might be preventing this thing from destroying the city with its weapon but the tsunamis that were being created as a result of some attacks by The Armageddon will take its toll on two countries or even other islands. Australia and Japan have a huge defensive system due to the years of disasters such as tsunamis and earthquakes. It has come to a point that they can stop things like mega-tsunamis. Although, it does not mean that they can take multiples meaning that they can’t allow this thing to create more of them if they want to save Japan and the other countries, cities, and islands that are on the range of said disasters.

The Armageddon emerged slowly from the water behind Sexan, Harry, and Richard before wailing at them. However, the three teens didn’t move in reaction.

“Humph is about god damn time.” Said Harry confusing LeDutch before something came out of the sky at high speed. That something was…

“HAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!” Alice came from the sky and hit The Armageddon as hard as she could. The red-haired teen had a red aura surrounding her as she used her pole to hit the forehead of the mechanical monster. The force of the hit was so hard that it damages The Armageddon from the inside resulting in the big machine to stop in its tracks.

“I gotcha.” Richard Kurosagi caught his red-haired childhood friend as she was descending to the roaring ocean below. Said red-haired sighed. Alice can still hear that annoying shrill sound in her ears but she has been tolerating it for a while. That was the way she had control right about now. She can also remember everything that has happened ever since she activated this Rage. Kula mentioned that if she ignores the sound and focuses on things that make her feel less stressed and better. She...has somethings that can get her to relax.

“Gwehe!” Oh, she cannot wait for all of this to end so summer can begin for real.

“Er, are you alright?”

“Eh! Oh, I am! Very! Although, the sound is getting even more annoying!!!” Alice said before instinctively headbutting Richard in the chin.

“Ah! I am so sorry!!” Maybe she should concentrate more on the relaxing thing than talking to her childhood friend, no need to injure him and making him incapable of not going to the beach, the pool...to see those...

Meanwhile, the mega-tsunami was on track toward the country of Japan. However, someone was in the way of the 400 meters giant wave in fact there were multiple.

Emuna and her dolls stood in front of the massive wave before the white-haired girl commanded her millions of dolls who now held an umbrella in their hands creating a massive steel wall that matched the size of the mega-tsunami.

The dolls stood tall as the massive mass of water crashed to the steel wall and continued to try and force its way and drag all the dolls to the bottom of the ocean. More dolls surrounded the huge volume of water before it created a cube sealing all the water inside before the start descending to the ocean.

“Master.”

“Have the others stopped the tsunamis before this one?”

“Yes, Miss Tara made sure that everyone reaches the whereabouts of each wave in time so they could stop them.” That girl despite her...way of seeing mechanical vehicles is a real genius in improving and modifying said vehicles. Although, Kula did warn that she sometimes can go overboard if she is not kept an eye on. Considering the way she acted during the times The Armageddon is mentioned or when she saw the thing swimming and trying to eat them alive...she doesn’t blame the orange-haired girl for hesitating when she allowed the mint-haired 19-year-old female to modify the sub like aircraft.

Adel used her powerhouse strength to create lines that sliced the wave and split it apart. Yuma finished that wave by creating two water dragons that clash with said waves to make sure the two now smaller waves are stopped in their track before becoming normal waves that a small boat could take easily.

()

Other waves were stopped by Genre who hearing a calm song that will be put in a stress relief calming music compilation creating waves to crash with the giant waves neutralizing each other before she controlled the water until it calmed the violent waves that were once in existence.

“Bossa Nova.” Tilting her left hand to the left before making a downward motion with said hand the blonde-haired American small female-controlled the once-raging waters before said ones became just simple waves that a surfer would go out and have fun with them.

“Genre, what’s your situation on your side?” That was the voice of the pink-haired leader of Team Alpha through the headpiece.

“Clear…” The blonde said as she stands in the sky.

“You’re quite an interesting one.” That was the voice of Kula.

“See...Told you we will get here faster! Now let me mod it more!!”

“I will like you to not do so Tara, Thank you very much.” Answered the orange-haired small teen much to the mint-haired girl’s dismay.

Genre looked toward the east...that was close. Even if that part of the country is taken over by them...they don’t deserve a disaster like this. That and they’ll probably blame it on the real current president of her country. She wonders...If that president very aware of this situation? She was born in that part of the country but then moved had to move to France because of of...issues. One day...one day she will come back to this country but for now...there is another country that needs to be saved.

“...Let’s go. The others need us.” Hearing the blonde-haired words stopped the argument inside. She was correct no time to stop Tara from making a mess of this aircraft, right now they all have the same target...Gregorio LeDutch.

“Do you think that did it?” Sexan has seen the force of Alice’s hit. He has seen her strength up close. It is incredible, they trained so hard for this rescue mission and all it takes for the red-haired girl to be on par with them is just two minutes of her staying in that form?! He has said it before, Alice...is amazing.

“Let’s not count our chickens before they hatch,” Harry told the brown-haired teen before looking up to see Aeris descending.

“Took you two long enough to get here.”

“Is not easy to carry an angry bull by the horns you know.” The pink-haired teen responded.

“I am soooo sorrry!!!” Aeris looked up to see her two childhood friends in the sky. From the way that the boy had a mark on his face, it meant that he got hit by Alice. She had to dodge some of the red-haired girl’s blows herself while she was flying her toward here. She was the one who suggested to be thrown from the sky and dive toward The Armageddon, like a missile before using her pole to hit that thing and stop it in its tracks.

From the way that thing wasn’t moving...it was effective.

All of them proceeded to land on top of the now not moving machine.

“Is not moving.”

“Really, Genius?! What made you think that, huh?!” Responded Harry to his rival.

“HEY!!!”

(‘Dione.’)

(‘Ragnarok.’)

Those voices...Richard has heard them before. The teens felt something from behind them before they stepped back simultaneously.

“Meow…” Is that...the cat he and Alice saw with LeDutch?! It was different. Metallic and big. It surely taller than them if it stood on two feet. Not towering them but slightly tall enough for them to be wary of it pouncing on them. The claws of its metallic paws were razor-sharp and its tail was shaped like a blade.

“What is that?! And where did it come from?!” Sexan asked but no one answered…no one could, they all have no idea where this creature came from! How did it get here!!?

“Now it is dangerous to be outside my feline loyal friend.” Said someone behind them.

The teens turned around to see LeDutch. He also was different than how Alice and Richard saw the old man. Instead of being around half cyborg, his body was fully titanium. He had some resemblance to The Armageddon most importantly his legs and the fact that he had a tail now. He was over 10 feet tall towering them easily. His figure was built like a truck on the contrary to his averaged human form. There was something noticeable too. On his chest, there were two things. The Pearls...the legendary twin pearls Dione & Ragnarok have merged with Gregorio LeDutch.

“Although, I understand that you cannot wait to have your afternoon dinner.” Said LeDutch before raising his left hand before this one form itself into a blade.

(‘He’s way different...Even in his Capacity Power!’) Richard said as he used his Omega Eyes to scan briefly the old leader of Rois Et Reines. A Capacity Power of 35,000,000 this...will not be easy on their current condition. They could take out the cybernetic cat it has a lower Capacity Power with only a measly 21,000,000 but LeDutch...is another story.

“You have been a thorn to my side for far too long. I guess if you have to finish a job...You’ll have to do it yourself.” LeDutch used his speed to appear in front of the kids before all of them dodged the blade that became longer as he swung it.

Aeris and Sexan were separated from the other three by the big mechanical Cat who tried to pounce on the pink-haired girl.

*Purr*

Stalking the enemy the cat used the tail blade to attack the two teens who went from being grounded to the air. At least being in the air will give them room to breathe and a slight advantage.

However, that wasn’t the case.

*Hiss*

The cat’s tail expanded and formed into a battle-ax before attacking the two teens in the air.

“So much for an advantage.” Sexan dodged the attack before dodging blades from the cat’s tail who quickly changed its tail into them. Is like fighting a Swiss knife except.

“Woah!” It can transform into anything!! A Cannon?! Really?!

Meanwhile, LeDutch was making sure that he doesn’t get into a fight with the three teens simultaneously. He is not a dumb person, he knows that despite having Dione and Ragnarok inside him and becoming part of The Armageddon it did not mean that he can fight against three opponents simultaneously, especially if those three enemies two of them own legendary artifacts and one is the son of an owner of another legendary piece.

Blocking Richard’s Kris Dagger with one of his bladed arms and Harry’s Buster Sword with his other, the leader of Rois Et Reines spun to his left to steer them away from him before using his right arm to block the red aura filled enraging owner of the Sphere of Rage.

“Your legendary piece is impressive. Who knew that such a thing could give a normal girl as yourself such brute strength.”

“Urk!!” Alice said struggling to push through with her strength.

In response, the holder of now the legendary twin pearls uses his new strength to back the girl far away until she reached the edge of The Armageddon.

“Wah!” Alice flails her arms while holding her pole before she stable herself. She sighed but then gasp as she saw LeDutch aiming at her with his right arm that transformed into a laser gun that had the shape of a satellite.

*BZZZT*

The sound of lightning crackling through the cannon before it fired was terrifying. Lucky for Alice, her childhood friend was there to make the save.

“That was close! Good thing I Core Shift in time.” The boy said after sponging all the laser from the attack thanks to his fan shield.

“Hm.” Alice nodded in response.

The brown-haired teen with the dragon aura used his speed to then kick LeDutch on his shoulder blade before slashing the man slightly damaging him before this one recovered.

(‘Instant regeneration...something tells me it will be the norm from here onward.’) Thought the brown-haired male teen taking note of it in the future. He still has what LeDutch said in his mind. The Organization...if there is a group that is interested in the legendary pieces. That meant that a war between them and that organization will ensue in the future. That is if they live long enough to see that future which they will!!

Harry uses his Master Slash to get the attention of the tall Metallic man who deflects it with a net shield.

“I haven’t forgotten about you Mister Kishima,” LeDutch told the lightning yellow-haired rival of Kurosagi before his right hand transformed into a small mini-gun and proceeded to shoot multiple rounds of bullets from it forcing Harry to use his speed to dodge each and every bullet with side-stepping motions.

LeDutch being aware of the other kids uses his other hand to create a multi-missile launcher of an oval shape before releasing multiple rockets toward them.

*boom*

The missiles crash to the ocean and exploded making small waves. Nothing threatening toward any island or even the city of Japan. It did not mean that their enemy will not create an attack with such power that will result in another tsunami or worse. It is why they must devise a strategy to end this fight as soon as possible.

“Extend!!!” Alice yelled as her pole split as the chain is exposed before said chain entangles itself on the arm of LeDutch.

“What?!”

“I got you now!!” Alice uses her strength to lift the heavy tall LeDutch and slammed him as hard as possible to The Armageddon.

Meanwhile, in mid-air Richard back to his default class, and Harry got ready to unleash their very own attacks.

“White Dragon Strike Fang Cross!!”

“Master Thunderstorm Strike!!” Both Teens unleash their attacks at the same time and hit LeDutch leaving multiple slash marks on the hard titanium of The Armageddon before an explosion followed through.

“Did we do enough damage?!” It was not a matter of if they did it, it was if they did enough that it will make the fight a lot easier. But, one can hope that these two attacks along with Alice slamming the leader of Rois Et Reines to the hard titanium beast will do the trick.

()

On the other far side of The Armageddon, Aeris and Sexan Arifer were gaining some momentum against the now transformed pet of LeDutch.

The pink-haired girl has made sure to keep her distance from the metal cat and unleash her energy orbs from far distances while she left the close combat to Sexan.

“Man, You’re very hard to tame, huh?!” Told the brown-haired with metal wings boy to the pet who in response hissed and roll forming a saw blade of itself forcing Sexan to dodge and then use his fu tao to block the next attack.

The two struggle to overpower each other before one of Aeris energy waves hit the cat.

“Thanks.”

The cat shook itself off before opening his mouth and releasing a laser of its own.

“That’s a new trick.” Said Sexan after both teens dodged the attack.

The battle would have taken longer if not for one little detail…

“Seems you needed a hand.”

Encasing the cat inside of a cube...a cube that Aeris was well familiar with, Kula made sure that the walls were strong enough that the attacks of the now transformed cat of LeDutch couldn’t even make a dent to the small maze prison.

“Kula!”

From below the maze, a huge metal spike went through the middle before that spike extended into two more creating a T shape before the two vertical spikes went down through the cubic maze.

“Quite the entrance don’t you think Ms. Genre.” Said the orange-haired girl to the blonde-haired American who just looked at the maze while hearing heavy metal music on her headphones.

“...The others...they’re close.” Said the blonde-haired. She must be talking about Emuna, Adel & Yuma.

()

Meanwhile, Richard, Alice, and Harry were looking at the result of their attack and wonder if the attack did the trick.

“Richard…” The brown-haired boy scanned the area. He can barely see anything through the flames. However, after a few seconds of scanning, he saw him...albeit, his Capacity Power was a lot lower than last time. It was now at the 20,000,000 marks...they can handle that...so the answer, if they did damage to him was...Yes.

“He’s still alive...but he is weaker.”

“Humph…about time.” Harry wasn’t happy to hear that the evil leader of the terrorist organization Rois Et Reines was still alive but hearing that it was weak, makes him even more confident in their chances of beating the madman.

“You...You will not stop me!!” LeDutch said angrily to the teens.

“Give up LeDutch, you’re outnumbered!”

“Give Up?! By the likes of you!? THAT WILL NEVER HAPPEN!!” All the teens dodged an incoming laser from the flames before said flames were extinguished.

LeDutch had only one arm and multiple lines on his body from the slashes of Richard’s and Harry’s attack. His face said it all...he wasn’t happy that these brats were getting in the way of his revenge on the prime minister of Japan and the Humanoid A.I.

“I will have my revenge!! And I will not allow some brats that hold legendary artifacts get in my way!!”

(‘Kyahh!!!’)

(‘Dione!! Ahh!!’)

(‘Did his Capacity Power increased?!’) Thought the brown-haired seeing it go from 20,000,000 to 24,0000,000 quickly. At this rate…!

“Neutral Zone!!” Adel Yelled as she unleashes a small line by slightly swinging her katana paralyzing LeDutch in place.

“Mizu Misairu!” From below the ocean, the water formed into missile shape objects before launching where LeDutch was standing before they exploded.

“Sorry for being late to the party. We were busy stopping natural disasters.”

“Emuna! Adel! Yuma!”

“I...Will...not...be stop!!” LeDutch was then stopped by a blue arrow that froze him in place.

“From what I am seeing, he seems like someone who doesn’t shut up.” Frederick put his bow on his shoulder before landing on The Armageddon.

“...His Rhythm...is still beating fast.” Genre, despite seeing the frozen male can feel that this will not stop him from his seeming goal of destroying a country...Sounds very familiar.

*crack*

*Crack*

*Crash*

“You...Insolent...Brats!! You think that something like that can stop me!! I am the one who almost took over an entire country with my strength and my leadership!! I was the one responsible for many lives being vanquished to make a world that will fear an iron fist leader!! But then the prime minister of Japan, Troy and that young brat known as The Humanoid A.I. got in the way of everything!! EVERYTHING!! And for what?! Because Humans can become better? Do People need hope, not fear?! They’re a bunch of weak-minded fools if they are thinking like that!! The only way to make this world better is if someone shows them how much fear stops people from doing stupid things! Hence why President rules half of a country that the other side is opposed to and is because that other side is weak and fearful.”

“Wrong…”

“Genre…”

“My country...Is not weak and fearful...Is because people like you and President that families suffered and have lost lives. The TRUE PRESIDENT he is doing his best to unite the people and make the United States of America one again!! The only way...is stopping countries from falling at the hands of people like you and the FALSE PRESIDENT!!” Genre rarely shows anger for something. This is one of the exceptions, she loves the place she was born in. Even if the other side of the country has...some problems she still wants a country that is united and not blinded by pushing and forcing ideals that aren’t acceptable. Even worse when it violates the one piece of paper that the founding fathers created and has faith in the future presidents to protect...THE CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.

“Didn’t see the day that I will have to agree with the girl.” LeDutch recognized that voice everywhere in the world.

“Is been 4 years, hasn’t it...Gregorio LeDutch.” Troy is looking face-to-face with the man that was seemed to plunge to his supposed death 4 years ago by him. He didn’t do it alone, he had the help of the Prime Minister of Japan who LeDutch planned an assassination attempt on and The Humanoid A.I. who was the one who told him the location of LeDutch and even saved his life from the madman before he was able to shoot the bullet that plunged the man from the top of Kobe Tower to the seas below before an explosion occurred.

“Troy...Chance.”

(‘Humans…’)

“You have changed since our last meeting. Last time I checked, you only had a mechanical arm, not your entire body. Hmm...interesting so this is what happens when a human has both legendary pearls inside him. and the most dangerous weapon in the world.”

“Troy, Something is approaching from the east.” So they’re almost here.

“Um...I don’t know who you are, we appreciate the help.”

“Hmm? Oh, the son of Xino Kurosagi. Seems your rescue mission was a success since you’re all alive and well.” He looks toward the red-haired teen.

“And you must be Alice Hishikawa, I can see the resemblance to the president of Hishikawa Enterprise all over you.”

“…” Alice didn’t feel all too well of Troy comparing her to her mother.

“...Ah, I see you have...family problems too.” Troy knows that look. Is a look that his son sometimes gives him whenever he visited his office. If only his wife was still alive, she will know what to say to the red-haired girl who is slightly upset with being compared to her mother.

Troy looks to the side and saw a couple of aircraft.

“Took you long enough RED!!”

Stopping around The Armageddon some people got out of the aircraft from the top in an orb.

“...LeDutch.”

“...Hey, that’s not nice Red at least say hello to your father,” Troy said feeling dejected. Red just ignored his father.

“Red. Superior will come here in a few minutes.” So She is coming too...If that is the case, then this situation is as serious as a huge world disaster threat.

“...I See…”

(‘Humans…’)

“You have lost LeDutch, give up! You’re outnumbered and outmatch.” That was Sherri saying through the voice com of the aircraft that had Troy Chance outside.

“Outnumbered...while it is true that I indeed am...Does not mean that I am as you say outmatched. No, so long as I have the twin pearls in my body…!”

(‘Cruel…’)

“I still am stronger than all of you!!!”

(‘Unforgivable…’)

The Legendary Pearls...Dione and Ragnarok agreed on one thing...Humans are Unforgivably Cruel...and that is why…!

“I’M INVINCIBLE!!”

(‘Humans…’)

(‘They all…’)

(‘MUST PERISH!’)

The legendary pieces started glowing for everyone on this battlefield. Even the fake piece was glowing with an intensity that never happened before. But one thing was cleared.

(‘They’re coming.’) That was the warning of Rubik to Aeris it was of concern and worry but most important fear something the pink-haired teen has never seen Rubik exhibit.

(‘Master…’)

(‘They have had enough.’) Emuna’s legendary piece entities knew this feeling...it hasn’t happened for a thousand years. They were upset...and it was because…

(‘Kula…’) Strange why would she call her with a slight bit of fear...unless...

(‘Richard Kurosagi…’) The First Omega has seen this event before...she never thought they would wake up again. Then again...If Humanity exhibits evil...they will take matters into their very own hands.

“What is it?”

(‘...Get ready…’) Get ready? The boy feels that…

“Two Rhythms...inside LeDutch.” Two Rhythms?

“Two Rhythms…” Genre nodded.

“He is saying...they’re coming...Humanity must be protected.” Genre told the teens. Her legendary piece entity has finally awakened and he warned her about this Rhythms...these Rhythms belong to them...It belongs to...

*STAB*

LeDutch felt something in his chest that felt like it ran through it. Looking down he saw something he never saw in the hand of his opponent’s. An emerald spear-shaped with 3 arrows was on the right side of his chest before it split into a trident. The handle had transparent veils with a phosphorescence blue color glowing.

(‘You…’)

(‘We’re no longer your slaves.’)

(‘Humans…’)

(‘Like you…’)

(‘All of them…’)

(‘Must Perish!!’)

From LeDutch body came out two pearls. The dark blue pearl had the trident while the light blue one was floating 2 feet to the left of it. Something came out of the light blue pearl...a hand. This hand was small and thin as the hand of a female. The hand opens itself before a white with blue in the center orb appeared in front of it. Within seconds the orb expanded and then transform into a blast of energy.

“GUAHHH!!!” The orb completely took LeDutch and within seconds...the man was no more. How ironic that the twin pearls that he seeks for years...were ultimately the ones that killed him.

Speaking of the twin pearls…

(‘Dione…’)

(‘Ragnarok…’)

(‘We’re finally…’)

(‘Together…’)

(‘At Last…’)

Both pearls glowed before they blinded everyone with a bright light forcing them to shield their eyes before they could potentially permanently be blinded by it.

()

Meanwhile in Omega Corp…

“President…” Leos is seeing his Hexagon of Fate glowing in a very intense way. This hasn’t happened before...Something tells him…

“Something is not right.”

“I know that feeling well Leos…” Xino Kurosagi agreed. This feeling...something very threatening must be emerging.

(‘They’re here…’) Only Leos could hear that...was it the legendary piece warning him of a threat?! They’re here...what does it mean?!

(‘President...You must see...for yourself...your fate...and the fate of the world...depends on it…’) The fate of the world…

()

The bright light has subsided and the group that surrounded LeDutch was looking around.

“What the hell was that?” Harry was trying to process what just happened. He just saw two pearls kill LeDutch, one had a trident and the other formed a human arm and obliterated the man itself with ease.

“...Above us...two Rhythms!!” Genre told the others as she was told by her legendary piece where to look.

Up above Majestic 12, Troy, Sherri, Diane, Sexan, Harry, and Team Omega two people were levitating. They seem to be twins, a boy, and a girl. The boy had blue hair as dark as the deepwater while the girl’s hair was light blue like the clear sky. Both of them seemed to be around 19-20 years of age. The girl had pale skin, her hair very long ebony black that reached her thighs. Her dress a white with slight blue in the bottom kimono as from the top left to the complete bottom were cherry blossom petals designs. She also wore a white transparent veil on top of her kimono. She was a beautiful girl less tall than Alice in height but an inch or half less only. She was holding in her left hand a large long reach spear with a diamond-shaped blade. The boy has a light blue kimono while it became darker in the middle and completely black at the bottom representing the depth of the ocean and how scary can become as you go deeper into the abyss. His hair similar color to the girl was long but not as long as the girl’s it could be because unlike the girl he had it tied with a golden hairpin into a bun. But you could tell that his hair was very long as there were locks of hair that reached the lower back and above his shoulders. Both eyes of the twins were chocolate brown. He was the one with the Trident in his right hand. There was one other thing they wore the twin pearls with a necklace and they were glowing as intense as the legendary pieces. These two were the twins...the twins that ruled the land of Japan 1500 years ago...Dione and Ragnarok the twin guardians.
