They saw Orimo immediately.
Smiling, they spoke at once—
"Orimo… Auransa has been captured in the Abyss Vault."
Orimo's breath caught.
"When did that happen?"
Ryuki's voice hardened.
"During the Devil War."

Sandy Haven – Shore
The sand trembled.
High Dominion Generals stood in a line, the ocean humming ominously behind them.
Ishuka Tengen — The Unbreakable Wall
Riyu Okara — Executor of Pirates
Sundae Kuribo — Maniac of Laughter
Their navy cloaks fluttered violently in the sea wind.
Etched across their backs in bold letters—
ABSOLUTE JUSTICE
Above them, on the deck of the massive warship, stood—
Seraph Admiral Dior Kres, beside
Seraph Admiral Orpheon Rangh
Dior's voice thundered across the shore.
"Get moving."
Navy soldiers surged forward, boots crushing sand, rifles clattering, battle horns screaming.

Back to Orimo – Sandy Haven Bottom
Orimo clenched his fists so hard his knuckles whitened.
"I will set him free."
Ryuki grinned, her blades still sheathed but humming with intent.
"That's what I'd expect."
Equa Rome stared ahead, eyes sharp.
"Look… the feast is coming," he murmured.
---
BOOM!
Sundae Kuribo smashed into Equa's arm, sparks exploding through the air.
He laughed wildly, eyes deranged.
"Justice!? Pirates!? Go to hell!"
Equa slid back through the sand, boots digging trenches.
His eyes darkened.
"Now you've done it."
---
Ryuki dashed forward, steel screaming as her two swords collided with Riyu Okara's twin blades.
"Let's begin, Navy," she murmured.
---
CRASH!
Ishuka Tengen slammed into Varo's shoulder, the impact detonating the nearby walls.
Varo's body flew through stone, the ground cracking beneath him as Aegis Mantra coated Ishuka completely.
Orimo screamed—
"I'll face the Admirals! Handle it, Varo!"
Varo rose from the rubble, blood on his lip—grinning.
"This is a piece of cake, lil' bro."
