The dragonturtle soon touched down as they landed on a beach with strange colored water and metallic pieces all over the sandy beach.
"Wow. This place is a dump. Its more of a garbage barge than a beach." Ruby said.
"Thats a relief. I saw urashima lining up to give out some good swimsuits. Show of women features REAL nice." Hope said.
"Aw dang it!" Vashyron said.
"Whoa, what the heck is that?" Maka said pointing to a large mechanical body on the beach.
"It looks like one of those faced mechons." Tails said.
"Its the one I used to pilot: Face Nemesis." Fiora said.
"If the generator still works, we can use it to repair the vehicle. Also, some Warning Lamps and Digital Filaments might work." Shulk said.
"YOu guys have some good salvaging methods." Hope said.
"Salvaging is what I mostly did with Fiora back in Colony 9." Shulk said. "We're used to it."
"And after that, we can get these chains outta the…" Hope said.
Metal face then appeared.
"Hang on a second, Blue Boy. You cant have those chains, not before I rip them outta the ground myself." Metal Face said.
"What would he want with them?" Shulk asked.
"Havent you figured it out yet?" Hope asked. "Somehow, these chains brought back some of our worst enemies back to life, and Zavok is using them somehow. Metal Face was brought back from them too. So if he figured out the secret and used it…"
"Hah, spot on! If that happens, it dont matter how many times I'm killed, I could just use these chains to revive myself every single time. I'd be immortal!" Metal Face said.
"And youll keep coming back until you finally put Dunban down." Hope said.
"Now your gettin it." Metal Face said brandishing his claws.
"All the more reason to stop you and every other guy out there. This is far beyond using the chains any more." Hope said.
Chapter 30: Way Beyond Good and Evil
"I hope youre ready to die, kiddies!" Metal face said.
"Hope youre ready, cause here we….!" Sonic said.
"Hoooooold it!" shouted a voice as everyone screeched to a halt and fell over. As it turned out, Dokurobo was on the far side of the beach this whole time.
"What the?! How long were you standing there?" Gemini asked.
"Long enough. I've been here since you guys showed up. I was just staring out at the clouds." Dokurobo said.
"Argh, youre such a space case." Jexi said.
"Hey, he's not a space case, sometimes…" Hope said. "So, the Demons of New York are headed to Ryugu Castle to, huh?"
"Yeah! We are, after they left me behind to try it on their own!" Dokurobo said.
"Argh. Get lost ya piece of trash. Who the eck are you suppose to be anyway?" Metal Face said.
"I am...Plastic Face!" Dokurobo said.
"You just made that up!" Nami and Lucy said.
"If I must change my name to catch up with the others, than so be it. Besides, I like this big opposing guy!" Dokurobo said.
"So you wanna team up do ya? Fine, just stay outta my way." Metal Face said.
"Fine by me. We'll take you both out!" Hope said before he and Jexi felt pain.
"What is….no. She's here." Jexi said as rising from the waters were Gnosis along with T-elos and Unknown.
"I finally found you again...Kos Mos." T-elos said grinning evilly.
"Oi, I know you. You're the Machina girl I met a long while ago." Metal Face said.
'Metal Face. I hope you don't mind, but I wanna borrow some more mechons." T-elos said.
"Heh. Take as many as you want. Just as long as I get Dunban's sister." Metal Face said.
Hope the fought the pain as he got up.
"Youre able to resist her pressure?" Jexi asked.
"I'm just...trying to fight through the pain." Hope growled. "I just need to…" Hope began before something landed on his back. He looked up in surprise to see Zagi standing on it.
"Hahaha. We met again, boy in blue and friend of Yuri!" Zagi said.
"Not you again. What're you doing here, and please dont say anything crazy." Hope said.
"An underwater castle. I came up cause I felt you and Yuri so I let that big mechanical guy go into the castle himself." Zagi said.
"Sigma." Hope said.
"If hes there, then the others may be in danger. We have to hurry!" Reiji said.
"I'd like to agree, but can someone get this guy off my back?" Hope said.
Just then,a spurt of water, blasted Zagi off of him and straight into Telos, piling them up.
"Who did that?! I'll kill the man who…" Zagi said as more water blasted T-elos and Meal face.
"Agh! Too much water! I'm gonna rust! Retreat, all a you!" Metal face said as he and his forces left.
Rising from the water was the upper half of a woman who was made of water.
Atlantica Head Guard
Torrentia
"Hi Hope. Miss me?" Torrentia asked.
"Phew, youre safe. I was worried anyone down there with you, Triton and the delegates would be in danger." Hope said.
"Who, us?" Torrentia said. "I easily blended in with the water here. But even with me in the water, baddies still made it through. I came up cause I heard you scream like a little girl. I figured you might need help."
"We did need help, but I wasnt screaming." Hope said.
"A girl.. Made entirely of water? Our attacks won't do a thing to something that'll just…" Dokurobo said before Zagi hit Torrentia with some sort of attack.
"Yes! She is weak. Blastia can hurt it. Blastia can kill it!" Zagi said grinning.
"Heather!" Hope said. "You keep your hands off her!"
He rammed into Zagi and pinned him to the ground, punching him in the face.
"Hee hah hah hah! This is it! This is the feeling i was looking for. That's right! Its just like with Yuri! An opponent that I absolutely wanna kill!" Zagi said.
"You're not getting that chance.' Hope said as he tossed Zagi over to Yuri and Flynn with Leanne backing them up.
"After all, its me you want, right Zagi?" Yuri said.
"Of course. When youre finished, Yuri, I'll take him out next! Come, take me on, Yuri Lowell!" Zagi said.
"Not alone, though." Flynn said. "Together, Yuri and I cant be beat!"
"Dont forget me, you two. Now lets get him!" Leanne said.
Battle Start:
"Hah! Look at you! So weak!" Yuri said.
"Yeah! You're weak AND a hack!" Leanne said.
"You're... whack!" Flynn said.
Ready….FIGHT!
Yuri and Flynn laid into Zagi with their swords attacks as well as their own special powers dealing fast damage on Zagi before calling in Leanne.
"Time to summon my courage!"
Leanne used a combination of guns and grenades a she spiraled in the air firing with great accuracy. She then froze Zagi and whipped out her frying pan.
"My frying pan will take you down!"
She smashed the ice berg and smacked Zagi silly.
Special Attack: Twin Wave
Yuri and Flynn took opposite sides and damaged Zagi with a magic circle before hitting him crossly. They then jumped into the air.
"You know what to do, Flynn!"
"Leave it to me!"
They both crossed their swords as a large beam hit Zagi with its full force.
KO!
End Battle:
"Our weapons are swords!" Yuri said.
" Magic!" Flynn said.
"Oh! Uh... Frying pans!" Leanne said.
"Hehehehahahaha! It aches! It aches! Yuri, I will return for you soon, with my full strength!" Zagi said as he vanished.
"Zagi, you have no idea what true power even is." Yuri said.
"Yeah, way to go, you two!" Estelle called out.
"Heather, you alright?" Hope asked.
"I'm fine. I just need to retreat into the ocean to recover a bit. Whatever he hit me with was really powerful." Torrentia said.
"Yeah, Blastia is that way." Hope said. "See you in the castle."
The battle raged onwards as the beach turned into a brawl. But soon enough, Dokurobo Retreated as well as Unknown. It was then that Aragami showed up. Both of them lead by a Marduk as well as a Vajra.
"Aragami? Here too?" Ciel said in shock.
"Well, guess our job as god eaters still isn't finished yet." Alisa said.
"Yeah! More Aragami to devour!" Nana said. "Then Oden Sandwiches after."
"We should clear them out at once." Ciel said. "It's charged, so I would think its the time us use it."
"Oh! Youre gonna use that spiral to take em all out. SO lets do it!" Nana said.
Multi Attack:Infernal Vortex & Tornado Carnage
Nana smashed down as Ceil fired her sniper attachment. Nana then whirled her hammer around, damaging all the Aragami at once before bringing them together with a power slam. Ciel then took over with her sword as she charged up a blood attack.
"I'll focus the spiral!"
She stabbed into all of the aragami, dealing damage in bursts as the gun attachment fired at them.
Multi KO!
All of the Aragami had been dealt with at once as Ciel and Nana held their weapons proudly.
"Yes we got rid of all of the…" Sonic said before hearing gunshots as T-elos was still near.
"Right. The other pain in our sides." Bass said.
"Kos Mos! Come and join with me!" T-elos ordered.
"That will not happen, T-elos." Kos mos said as she and Fiora approached.
The two of them engaged in combat for a short moment before Kos Mos and Fiora knocked her away. And as T-elos was going for a killing blow, Bass intervened with an Explosion, knocking her back.
"Make no mistake, T-elos. I will destroy you for what you've done." Bass said.
"Grrr!" T-elos growled before she teleported.
Hope clapped his hands. "Alright. That should do it."
"Now we can head to ryugu castle. Hope were not too late." Reiji said.
