Akira, Mishima and Morgana watched Ryuji run out of the locker room in a furious manner with surprise looks on their faces before they glance worriedly at each other then they run out of the room after him (while Morgana jumped down from the locker and landed safely on Akira's shoulder). Akira (with Morgana hanging on his shoulder) and Mishima run after Ryuji up to the second floor, saw him run down the hallway, angrily pushed open the PE faculty office door and run into the room and they quickly run into the opened room as well.
"…Huh?" said Kamoshida as he glance in confusion at Akira (while Morgana jumped off Akira's shoulder and landed on the floor), Mishima and Ryuji at his desk after they came into the room.
"You bastard! The hell did you do to that girl!?" yell Ryuji angrily at Kamoshida.
"What are you talking about?" said Kamoshida as he briefly raised and waved his right arm and glance away from them.
"Don't you play dumb with me!" snapped Ryuji as he angrily kicked a nearby chair away from him.
"That is enough!" yell Kamoshida as he glared at Ryuji.
"What you did… wasn't coaching…!" said Mishima.
"What did you say?" said Kamoshida ominously to Mishima as Akira, Morgana and Ryuji turned to glance at him.
"You… You ordered me to call Suzui here… I can only imagine what you did to her…!" said Mishima nervously to Kamoshida as he grabbed his head with his hands in despair.
"You're going on and on about things you have no proof of… Basically, you're simply making these claims because you can't be a regular on the team, right?" sneered Kamoshida as he stood up from his chair and crossed his arms.
"That's not what this is about…!" said Mishima as he lowered his hands and glared defiantly at Kamoshida.
"Even if it is exactly as you imagine it to be, hypothetically speaking… what can you do?" said Kamoshida tauntingly to them. "We just received a call from the hospital. Suzui's in a coma, and her chances of recovery are slim… How would someone like that make a statement?" added Kamoshida smugly to them (which shocked them).
"You… How could you be so callous about the life of a student? The life of Suzui-san, Takamaki-san's friend?" snapped Akira as he glared at Kamoshida.
"There's no chance of her getting better, I hear… The poor girl. If only Arisato hold on to her tighter…" said Kamoshida in a mock-lament tone of voice to them as he raised and placed his hand dramatically on his forehead while ignoring Akira.
"No… That can't be…" said Mishima as he shook his head in despair.
"You goddamn…!" said Ryuji as his body started to shake in anger.
"This again? Does this mean we need to have yet another case of "self-defense"?" said Kamoshida as he scowled at Ryuji.
"You shut your mouth, you son of a bitch!" growled Ryuji as he glared hatefully at Kamoshida before he raised his fist in preparation to punch Kamoshida. But before he could do so, Akira rushed forward and grabbed hold of his arm with his hands to stop him. "Why're you stoppin' me, Kurusu…!?" demanded Ryuji in surprise at Akira.
"Calm down, Sakamoto-kun. Don't let yourself be provoke this easily by him." replied Akira calmly to Ryuji.
"But still!" said Ryuji as he yanked his arm out of his hands and glared back at Kamoshida.
"Oh? You're stopping him? What a surprise, mister criminal record boy." said Kamoshida as he glance at Akira with a feigned surprise look on his face before he crossed his arms and smiled smugly at them. "There's no need for any of you to hold back. Why not attack me?… Oh, you can't. Hahaha! But of course you can't!" said Kamoshida smugly to them before he turned and sat down in his chair. "Everyone present right now… will be expelled. I'm reporting you scums at the next board meeting." added Kamoshida coldly to them (which shock them again).
"Wha-" said Ryuji.
"You can't make a decision like that…!" protested Mishima firmly to Kamoshida.
"Who would seriously consider what scums like you say? You threatened me too, Mishima, so you're just as responsible." scoffed Kamoshida as he glance coldly at Mishima.
"Huh…?" said Mishima, confused.
"To think you didn't know why I kept someone as talentless as you on the team. You act like you're a victim, but you leaked his criminal record, didn't you? It's all over the internet, correct? What a terrible thing you did to him." said Kamoshida as he glance in mock-pity at Akira.
"Mishima…?" said Ryuji as he, Akira and Morgana turned to glance at Mishima with disbelief looks on their faces.
"Why would you do that, Mishima-kun?" said Akira in disappointment at Mishima.
"He told me to do it. I had no choice… I'm sorry." said Mishima as he got on his hands and knees in forgiveness to Akira (who sighed sadly at Mishima while Kamoshida laughed wickedly at them).
"Now, are we finished here? You scums are all expelled! You're done for; your futures are mine to take, now get out of my sight." said Kamoshida even more smugly to them.
"I can't believe this asshole's getting' away with this…!" yell Ryuji angrily.
"Don't worry, Sakamoto-kun. He'll eat his words and pay very dearly for his heinous actions soon enough." said Akira calmly to Ryuji.
"Huh…? Oh right, we have that!" said Ryuji as he realised what Akira meant.
"Huh? Have you all lost your minds? I don't understand what garbages like you all are thinking, but go ahead and try. All you can do is wait for your disposal though…" said Kamoshida coldly to them.
"Is that so? Well, not on my watch, Kamoshida-sensei!" snapped a male voice suddenly and coldly from behind Akira, Morgana, Ryuji and Mishima (who stood up from the floor) and they all turned and saw with surprise looks on their faces that it's Kanakubo-sensei with both Minato and Hanzo standing behind him with cold looks on their faces.
"You! What the hell are you doing here, Kanakubo-sensei?" snapped Kamoshida in anger at Kanakubo-sensei showing up in his office before he glance at both Minato and Hanzo and a smirk appear on his face. "Oh, I get it. Those two scums standing behind you must have told you something, huh? But it doesn't matter because…"
"Silence! I didn't come here with these two boys just to hear more of your bullshit excuses coming out of your mouth, Kamoshida-sensei." said Kanakubo-sensei, cutting off Kamoshida's words. "Yes, they did came to see and tell me about the reason why Suzui-san decided to commit suicide and what she told them and I believe them both, unlike the other spineless, incompetent teachers, the principal and a callous bastard like you who don't care about the life of a student but their own well-beings. And if you think of reporting and expelling these boys for doing the right thing in the next board meeting, I won't let you do so!" added Kanakubo-sensei even more coldly to Kamoshida-sensei.
"Oh really? You won't let me do so, Kanakubo? And how are you going to stop me from reporting these scums, huh? You're just as incompetent and useless as the others." sneered Kamoshida-sensei mockingly to Kanakubo-sensei.
"How, you ask? As if I'd ever tell you on how I'm going to stop someone like you so you can snatch it away from me to save yourself, you sorry excuse of a bastard teacher." sneered Kanakubo-sensei back at Kamoshida-sensei, which completely pissed him off before he raised and swung his fist toward Kanakubo-sensei in preparation to knock him out but before he could punch him, Kanakubo-sensei swiftly raised his left hand and caught Kamoshida's fist firmly in his hand.
"You better let go of my hand now or I'll make sure to get you fired from this school. Like how I get that coach fired too because I own this school." said Kamoshida-sensei threateningly to Kanakubo-sensei as he struggle to pull his hand away from Kanakubo-sensei's tight grip to no avail.
"Yeah right. As if a former olympic medalist like you can get me fired from this school like the poor coach. So what and too bad because I'm part of the Fujiwara family and clan even though my surname is different. And what's that about you owning this school, Kamoshida-sensei? It's thanks to the principal hiring you to Shujin to boost it's image while turning a blind eye to what you did to the poor students and their parents. It's ridiculously pathetic, laughable and deluded of you to think so." said Kanakubo-sensei coldly and boredly to Kamoshida-sensei (who fell silent and scowled at Kanakubo-sensei when he heard what Kanakubo-sensei just told him) before he turned and glance around at Akira and the other boys. "Come on, boys. We're leaving now." said Kanakubo-sensei calmly to Akira and the other boys and they nodded to him before they all turned and left the room.

In the courtyard…
"The way how Kanakubo-sensei just tear down that bastard in that PE room is great, you guys! So effin' glad to see and know that at least there's one decent teacher in this school that wants to help instead of standing by and do nothing." said Ryuji with an awed look on his face about Kanakubo-sensei before it got replaced with an angry look as he banged his fist against the vending machine. "But even so, I'm still pissed at that bastard and I wanna go to that world and beat the shit outta him!" added Ryuji angrily to Akira, Minato and Morgana after they split up with both Kanakubo-sensei and Hanzo.
"… We're not beating him up. We're simply stealing his distorted desire." said Morgana coolly to Ryuji.
"Yes, we know, Morgana. We won't beat him up, we'll simply tear him apart." said Akira calmly to Morgana (which make both him and Ryuji glance at him in surprise and fear while Minato had a blank look on his face). "What? You guys don't like it?" added Akira in surprise at them.
"Not say we don't like it, Akira. Just that…" said Morgana.
"After what he just did to you, Mishima-kun, Suzui-san, Takamaki-san and others, I'd would say it's a fitting eye for an eye for a callous bastard like him." replied Akira coldly to them, cutting off Morgana's words.
"He's right in a way, you guys. I agreed with him, that bastard deserves it." said Minato in agreement with Akira.
"I agreed with him too, Minato." said Pharos in agreement with Minato.
"Very well then, can I assume that all 3 of you have made up your minds about this-about how he might suffer a mental shutdown?" said Morgana.
"…I have." said Ryuji as he turned to glance at Morgana. "Someone almost died and Arisato got hurt because of him. I don't give a rat's ass what happens to him anymore!"
"And what about you two?" asked Morgana to both Akira and Minato.
"I'm definitely in." replied Akira.
"So do I, Morgana." said Minato.
"…Then it's settled." said Morgana.
"By the way, is getting rid of a Palace hard…? You've tried it before, right?" asked Ryuji.
"…When did I ever say that?" replied Morgana innocently to Ryuji.
"You've never done it before?" asked Akira.
"Nope." replied Morgana truthfully to Akira.
"Seriously?" thought Minato as he shake his head.
"WHAT!? Were you just pretendin' to know!?" yell Ryuji in disbelief to Morgana (which make him, Akira and Minato quickly shushed and glared at him slightly for raising his voice).
"Is it true that you guys are getting expelled and Kanakubo-sensei's gonna get fired?" asked Ann suddenly from behind them (which make them gasped in surprise before they turned to glance at her). "Everyone's talking about it…"
"That asshole's at it again, spreading false rumors…!" said Ryuji as he briefly look away in irritation then look back at Ann. "So you came all this way to tell us that?" added Ryuji.
"If you all are going to deal with Kamoshida… let me in on it too." said Ann firmly to them (which surprises them again). "I can't just sit back and do nothing after what happened to Shiho!"
"Takamaki-san…" said Akira sadly to Ann.
"Listen, what happened to Suzui-san isn't your fault, Takamaki-san. You didn't know that he would do such a cruel thing to her and it's best that you go home now." said Minato calmly to Ann.
"Arisato-senpai's right, Ann. This has nothing to do with you… Don't butt your head into this…" said Ryuji gruffly to her.
"But it does! Shiho's my-" argued Ann.
"We know she is but 're sorry, Ann. But it's better if you stay out of this." said Akira firmly to Ann, cutting off her words.
"No, I will not!" argued Ann even more to them.
"We said don't get in our way!" snapped Ryuji harshly to Ann (which make her flinch before she turned and run away).
"… That was harsh." said Morgana.
"Yeah, you shouldn't spoke so harshly to her like that, Ryuji-kun." said Minato in a disappointed tone of voice to Ryuji.
"We can't take her somewhere like that with us…" said Ryuji guiltily to Minato.
"I hope that she doesn't torment herself over this. When it comes down to it, women don't hesitate." said Morgana sadly to them.
"Yeah, we know, Morgana." said Akira as he nodded to Morgana.
"We just gotta hurry up and deal with Kamoshida. Let's go already!" said Ryuji determinedly to Akira, Morgana and Minato before they left the school and head back into the alley in front of the school.
"The moment we cross over, we'll treat each other like phantom thieves, so I hope you 3 are ready." Morgana told them.
"Huh? Phantom Thieves?" asked Ryuji as he glance in confusion at Morgana.
"Those who covertly sneak in and stylishly steal Treasure-that is what we become!" replied Morgana happily to Ryuji.
"I see, not bad at all." said Akira as he smirk at Morgana.
"I agreed." said Minato with a nod of his head (same goes for Pharos inside him).
"That sounds kinda cool!" said Ryuji exuberantly to Morgana. "So we just gotta say the school, Kamoshida's name, and… castle? Then we end up in bizarro world." added Ryuji before he pull out his phone. "…How the hell all this work? Someone make it?" asked Ryuji.
"We don't know. But does it really matter, Ryuji-kun?" replied Akira as he shake his head.
"That's kinda creepy, but eh, it seems useful enough. We'll show that effin' Kamoshida!" said Ryuji as he rolled and stretch his arms a little.
"Let's go!" said Morgana confidently as he, Ryuji and Minato watched Akira pull out his phone and pressed the Metaverse Navigator. But unbeknownst to them, Ann is watching them from her hiding spot behind the corner.
"They really are going to do something… They're doing something on their phones? A name… School…? Huh…!?" said Ann before she widened her eyes and gasped in disbelief and shock when she saw her surroundings started to turned purple, warped and change into a different place.
