In a flashback, before the country of Edo (old name of Japan) was not fully established into one island, there were two kingdoms namely Royal Fighters, whom those who are protected the world of mortals from the evil threats of the Evil Insects, lead by Mushiharai, a thousand year old insect. The protector of the Royal Fighters, the Insect Prince, the strongest fighter among the entire kingdom and also the one whom the insect queen was getting obsessed with. She tried to win his love but she failed always. In order to gained his attention, she demanded him to meet him at the next island, whom it was invaded by the Evil Insects army. Upon facing at her, he released his blade sword, pointed at her, shouted " This is will be your end, Mushiharai-sama! You will gonna died by my blade. "
The insect queen, was surprised, said with amusement " You are still cold hearted as always, my dear Prince. But... you will never sealed me for good! "
And their duel fight has been begun. She tried to stabbed him at the chest by using her sting attack but the Insect Prince had stabbed her on the forehead, her real weakness.
The insect queen, was groaned in pain, kneeled down and then she raised up, shouted in a loud voice " This is not over yet! I shall returned back in the near future, mark my words! I shall returned from the dead! "
And she disappeared away, along with the other insect army, into pile of dusts.
The villagers, were so very delighted that the city was saved by the Insect Prince from the evil insects. In order to prevent the evil insects to be revived again from the dead, he created an another dimension world in order for them to be separated farther away from the world of mortals so that they will never be attacked again, using his power ability. After a few centuries later, the peace and harmony was returned again in the entire country, thanks to the Insect Prince, the defender of all insects. The prince, was still continues helping the mortals who are in needed and so they were respected him very dearly. But not so very much longer, the Insect Prince has been passed away due to an illness. Before he died, he said this to everyone
" Whenever the evil insects will be returned back again in the future, the power of the blade weapon will be used by a worthy person who has a kind heart, to protect the entire world from evil. "
And he died peacefully. The villagers, were desperate of his sudden death, had prepared a honor ceremony for him. The next morning, they were attended at his funeral, in which according to the Japanese traditional culture, the deceased body of the person, will be placed on the wooden boat or a bamboo sledge and to be flew in the water or lake. Then, someone will shoot a fire to the deceased person, whom they believed that the soul of the deceased one will be rest in peace in heavens just like the old traditions in Europe during the Medieval times.
As years passed by, the villagers created a traditional festival in which it was named " Festival of Victory " , in which it was honored to their strongest and bravest savior of the entire country, the Insect Prince. It was still celebrated until now, even the times of modernisation.

(Return back at the Insect Magistrate Headquarters outside balcony)
(Present time)
Jinbei and Judai were still having their private conversation.
" Well, what do you want to asked me something about Usagi-sama? "
Jinbei sighed in deep breath, with both of his arms folded on around of his chest, said to him " About your relationship with her. "
" And why you asked me about that? "
" Is because.. I know that she was very close to you. Can you explained this to me on how you two met with each other? "
" You see... I met Usagi-sama in an accident a few years ago. At first, I really don't like her because of her rashness attitude so much until she protected me from the evil criminals and that how I formed relationship with her but somehow, I caught my eye on Sailor Moon-sama. "
" You had also in love to Sailor Moon-sama too? " with a surprise expression on his face
" Yeah, she had saved me many times from dangers. She was considered as my female knight in shining armor. She had encouraged me to never give up and have strong faith. "
" I see... just like she did to me a few days ago... when I was in the hands of the evil insect queen, Mushiharai. "
" Mushiharai? Who was she? Never heard of that name from before. " with curiosity on his face
" Mushiharai was the powerful insect and she was the leader of the Evil Insects kingdom. According to the book of ancient histories and legends, she was killed by the Insect Prince, the ruler of the Royal Fighters kingdom and the most strongest among the entire clan. He was became the first protector of the entire Edo but he passed away due to a strange illness. He died at the young age. And so, the entire city created a festival in which it was named " Festival of Victory " , in which they honored him. Somehow, he was my inspiration to become the most strongest insect fighter and that's how I came here to the Insect Magistrate headquarters after my parents passed away. "
" I get it now. But, I'm not good in reading some histories stuffs while on the other hand, Jerry-kun was loved to read those stuffs. "
" That's explains it why he wanted to learned from Nagatomimaru-dono about some secret legends of insects and other creatures a few days ago. He was very genius mouse creature. "
" Yeah, but when it comes to dueling, he was much like me after all. " with a smile on his face
" You are the lucky pet owner, Judai-san. I can able to see that through your mind and heart... that you have the strong passion inside within. "
" Not at all, Tom-kun and Jerry-kun were so very important to me because not only they didn't belonged to same blood. I treated them so very well... as siblings. We having a strong bond together when I was young until we graduated from Duel Academia. "
" I understand completely. Jerry-san tells to me last time about your secret relationship with Sailor Moon-sama. May I asked you for one question. "
" Yes, what is it, Jinbei-san? "
" Well... is she has a secret identity or something? I thought that heroes and heroines have their own secret identities. Do you know what was her real secret identity was? "
" Why you wanted to know about Sailor Moon-sama's secret identity? "
" I was getting curious that... Usagi-sama was acting strange lately... those actions that I didn't know... I was trying to asked her of what happened but she didn't answered to me of the reason why. "
" Okay, what about it? She was always been like that at all times when she needed some huge emergencies. After all, she was getting more responsible when it comes to these stuffs. "
" But I think there is something wrong with her. "
" Huh? There is nothing wrong with Usagi-sama. She is was doing her responsibility as Sa-"
Their conversation was interrupted when Hibachi came in, in a panicked manner.
" Tsukishima! I'm so glad that I found you here at the outside of the balcony. " she said
" Is there's something wrong, Hibachi-dono? " Jinbei asked
" An insect has been attacked a remote village, not far from Edo. " Hibachi answered
" an another insect had attacked an another village? I think it was Mushiharai's doing... she was trying to captured me for good. " Jinbei said, with a shocking expression on his face
" tries to captured you? But why? " Judai asked, with curiosity
" I will explained everything that to you later. Let's go, we will must saved the village from that evil insect. " Jinbei said in a rush
The three went back to the entrance gate of the headquarters. Tom, Jerry along with Sailor Moon, Koikawa, Tenma and Mugai were waiting at the post stand. They catched up with them.
Jinbei, was surprised when he sees Sailor Moon, he said " Oh... I never thought you will gonna came here... "
Judai, standing beside Jinbei, was quiet in speechless, thought on his mind that Jinbei didn't know that Usagi Tsukino and Sailor Moon were in one persona.
Jerry, was getting curious, asked him " Uh, is there's something a matter, Master? "
" Yeah, you looked so doubted. Is there's something that you wanted to say? " Koikawa said
" It was nothing, guys. Well... it was actually... just forget it. " Judai said in response
" We will must get hurry, the people needs our help. " Sailor Moon said in a rush
But that very moment, Jinbei was started to felt getting dizzy and he slowly kneeled down on the ground. Sailor Moon, was feeling anxious on her face, went approached to him, kneeled down, asked " Are you alright, Jinbei-san? "
" Yes, I'm fine, Sailor Moon-sama. Don't worry about me. " Jinbei said
She tries to helped him to stand up but when she held his hand, her mind was flashed to a mysterious past that she had never seen from before. She thought on her mind " What is this? an illusion? "
But her thinking moment was interrupted when Jinbei asked her " Sailor Moon-sama! Sailor Moon-sama! Are you okay? "
" Oh, I'm fine, Jinbei-san, really... I was just thinking something. Um, may I say to you something. " Sailor Moon answered in response
" Yes, what is it, Sailor Moon-sama? Tell me anyway. " Jinbei asked
" Well you see... I will gonna tell you that.. I am actually Sa- "
But it was interrupted when they heard the same loud noise from the nearby village.
" I think we must go now to the village, let's go! " Hibachi said to them
Then, the group leaved the headquarters, going to the village, not far from city of Edo, in which it was been attacked by an insect, owned by Queen Mushiharai, in which no other than Leaf, whom been ordered by the queen to captured Jinbei and Judai.
" Deserve to run, but you can't deserved to hide anywhere, you foolish humans. " with an evil smirk on her face
She used her power to burned down every houses. The villagers, had no other choice but to flee away. But in a moment later, Sailor Moon along with the Mushibugyo team, alongside with Judai, Tom and Jerry came arrived. The villagers were delighted that they came to saved the village.
Leaf, was surprised when she saw Jinbei, she said with amusement " I never realized that you will gonna came here to this village all along, samurai fighter Jinbei Tsukishima. "
" I will never let you to destroyed it! " Jinbei shouted, with mad expression on his face and he drawed his katana blade from his pocket
" Wow, you are such a brave young man you are. But somehow, I will gonna take you along with other boy with the brown hair, to the insect queen. " Leaf said
The others were surprised of what she had said, including Judai as well. Jinbei, in a fit of anger, tried to fight her but Sailor Moon stepped forward in, moved him back away.
" Sailor Moon-sama, you can't! You don't know how strong she is. Let me handled her. " Jinbei said, insisted her
She turned her head, said to him " Listen up, Jinbei-san. I know that you wanted to fight this creature but I think it was very risky for you to handled it, just like when you had been attacked by Mushiharai a few days ago at the cemetery. "
He nodded his head, said " I know that, Sailor Moon-sama... But... "
But Sailor Moon cutted in, said " It was too dangerous for you to fight, just leave it to me instead. You guys should helped the villagers to be brought to a safe place and take Judai with you. After all.. " she turned her head away, released her sword weapon, holded tightly with both of her hands, went on " After all... I will gonna protect this village and everyone else... I won't let anyone else to get near to either of you two... I promise... "
" Sailor Moon-sama... " Jinbei uttered
Sailor Moon, stepped in at the center, facing at Leaf.
Judai, tapped his hand on Jinbei's shoulder, said " Let's go. Just leave her, she will gonna catch up with us later. "
He nodded his head, said " I guess you are right. "
The group left out. Jinbei, turned his head, looking at Sailor Moon, thought on his mind " I'm counting on you, Sailor Moon-sama, don't let your guard down... " and he turned his head back away from his sight
Both two women, were looking at each other, in different facial expressions.
" So... you must be the strongest warrior named Sailor Moon, right? the Insect Queen told me everything all about you.. " with amusement on her face
" What do you want from Jinbei-san and Judai anyway? "
" The queen had selected those two... to used as sacrifices for the Black Minamoto-sama. "
" Black Minamoto-sama... never heard of him from before... "
" The Majesty ordered me to eliminate you along with those pesky insect fighters and of course, to take those two to the insect queen. "
" I won't let it that to happened! I will gonna destroyed you! "
" You think so? Bring it! "
And then, the two battled with each other.
On the other hand, the group were been surrounded by an another army of insects, came from Mushiharai also at the right corner of the village.
" Surrender yourself if you don't want to get all of you hurt. " the leader said to them, with an evil chuckle on his face
" He was looks scary... " Tom said, with a frightened expression on his face
The Mushibugyo team, released their ace weapons. Jinbei, released his katana blade, while he defended Judai, Tom and Jerry from behind.
Jinbei, turned his head, said to Judai " Don't need to be worry, they will never catch us, I swear. "
" Oh, okay... " Judai uttered and he thought, watched at him " I think he was getting far more determined than ever... I wondered where he was born at... "
