With Ankh badly hurt, he is in danger of later attacks from his fellow Greed while Kyuji and the others have no idea on where he would be, as the Bison Yummy is still on the loose intends to get back at Kyuji for the earlier attack on him and Gameru.
This chapter will conclude this arc as both sides will put things right...
The Greed believes that things would be easy so he approaches the person and began interrogating him about the message and the whereabouts of the Core Medals, but things took an unexpected turn for the worse as the conversation began.
"Hey...are you the one who sent me these messages?"
"Yes...it's me."
"So where is it? Where are the red Core medals that you're bragging about? Tell me now or...wait...that voice...you!"
"Surprise, surprise, Ankh...you totally fell for it...this is the first time you see me assume a human guise...and Kazari's plan in stealing the cellphones to use them against you worked well for once...now I can beat you up all to myself!"
Ankh learns too late that the one he is meeting right now was Uva, who showed to him the cellphone he is using in sending the fake text messages. Ankh slowly realizes he has been set up and then recalled hearing about Kazari stealing cellphones and now he realized that this is why the feline-Greed stole them, by using them to lure him here, and then Uva commented that Kazari sneaking inside the Agasa house to obtain Shinichi Kudo's cellphone number has indeed worked.
"Looks like Kazari sneaking into the current home of Shinichi Kudo worked as well...he has gotten your contact number and hence I was able to fool you with the fake messages I sent...!"
"What? Kazari went to Agasa's house? Did you hurt the old man?"
"I wonder...though I doubt he would kill him...if he did..it'll attract attention...so let's assume he spared him...something I would never do!"
"Looks like I'll have to fend you off!"
"Not until you give me my core medals back!"
The two began to brawl with Uva assuming his Greed form, while Ankh managing to defend himself, but after raking his eyes an infuriated Uva pinned his opponent as he rips Ankh off Shinichi's body and strikes him repeatedly, which forces the right forearmed form of Ankh into releasing the Suzumebachi,Ocelot, Sabaru, Cheetah and Kuwagata Medals. As Uva is about to finish off his prey, Ankh unleashes a strong fireball blast which hits him square on the face, and he broke free. Though he is unable to find Ankh, Uva is nevertheless pleased and took the Core Medals with him and vows to get back at him before leaving.

After Gamel and the Bison Yummy fall back, Kyuji attempts to keep Ranma and Akane from killing each other as the latter grabbed her fellow teen and throws him into the river to the former's shock, which resulted in Ranma turning into a girl as it turns out that a year prior, Ranma fell into a cursed pond in China which resulted in his current predicament.
"Ahh! Cold water! Now I'm a girl! You uncute tomboy!"
"Well...you stink! So take a bath already!"
As Ranma gets out of the river to dry up and look for hot water to restore his normal gender, Akane reveals to Kyuji that her father and Ranma's father were old friends and they had her and Ranma "engaged", which the two teens vehemently protested, and with Ranma giving her insults she is pissed which she always beat him up.
"So...you two got engaged against your will?"
"That's right!"
"But with a boy whose gender change on liquid temperature...?"
"It's more than that...it's because of a cursed spring...here's how it happened..."
Ranma, now back to normal, butted in and explained to Kyuji how their "problems" began, in which a flashback scene shows that on a training journey in the Bayankala Mountain Range in the Qinghai Province of China about a year ago, Ranma Saotome and his father Genma fell into the cursed springs at Jusenkyo. They began chasing each other as part of their training to develop their stamina and mental alertness.
Before engaging in their training, a tour guide cautions them not to fall into any of the ponds below as he tells them that legend has it that when someone falls into a cursed spring, they take the physical form of whatever drowned there hundreds or thousands of years ago whenever they come into contact with cold water. The curse will revert when exposed to hot water until their next cold water exposure.
In the midst of their training, Genma accidentally fell into the Spring of the Drowned Panda while Ranma fell into the Spring of the Drowned Girl. This causes the two to take form of their respective curses whenever they get doused with cold water and can only revert back to normal when doused with hot or warm water.
Upon returning to Japan, the pair settle in the dojo of Genma's old friend Soun Tendo, a fellow practitioner of Musabetsu Kakutō Ryū or "Anything-Goes" school of martial arts which Genma passed on to Ranma. Genma and Soun agreed years ago that their children would marry and carry on the Tendo Dojo. Soun has three teenaged daughters: Kasumi, Nabiki and the hot-tempered, but helpful, martial arts practicing Akane.
As Akane is Ranma's age she is appointed for bridal duty by her sisters. Their reasoning is that Akane dislikes men, and that Ranma is only a man half of the time; therefore, they are perfect together. Although both initially refuse the engagement having not been consulted on the decision, they are generally treated as betrothed and end up helping or saving each other on numerous occasions. They are frequently found in each other's company and are constantly arguing in their trademark awkward love-hate manner.
Kyuji, having heard everything, decided to persevere and talked the two into reaching to an understanding and urged them to get to know each other better so that the two would understood each other and that they won't have to argue constantly. Ranma and Akane reluctantly agreed and they began to talk peacefully which seemingly worked and now Kyuji decided to take his leave and find Ankh in case he gets into the Bison Yummy's way.

Elsewhere, a weakened Ankh finds himself unable to heal after intentionally discarding the Kuwagata and Cheetah Medals, along with several Cell Medals, to escape Uva and decided to abandon Shinichi Kudo's body to find another body to inhabit, but then he encountered some trouble as he was so injured that he couldn't fly and he is attacked by several stray cats, and thus he is forced to wait on Shinichi's body.
As he tries to wait, he and Shinichi's consciousness got into a verbal tussle.
"Blast...I lost too many Cell Medals...now the healing ability is taking too long..."
"So..how does it feel to be outwitted by your own game?"
"You…you knew that it's a trap…! But why didn't you tell me?"
"I feel that it's not my place to tell…besides…all you think about are your medals…and despite you have the advantage in accessing to my memories…you didn't use them…and I figured that this is a good way for you to learn some lessons…"
"Darn you!"
"All part of the learning process…"
"Fine! I deal with this in my own way!"
As Ankh is about to contact Kyuji, he stopped at the last minute as he refused to do so out of pride as he believes that the teen vagabond will make fun of him and decided to bid his time and wait for the moment to make his next move as he tries to heal himself slowly.

Later, at their secret hideout, Uva grabbed Kazari as he berated him for deceiving him as he sensed that the feline Greed has his Core medals and the two physically struggled with neither one giving in and the throttling continues.
"Kazari, you bastard!"
"What now? You got your medal back because of me..."
"You can't fool me! I can sense my Core Medals in your possession! Now give it back or else I'll kill you!"
Mezuru, in her human guise, saw this and uses her hydraulic powers and stops a fight between Uva and Kazari at their base, convincing the two to trade for the other's Core Medals.
"That's enough, you two. Fighting each other over such a trivial matter...that would only make Ankh laugh at you two, and that's something you wouldn't want that to happen, no? Now then...Kazari...give him back his Core Medal."
Reluctantly, Kazari gives Uva the Kuwagata Medal, which the insect-Greed is shocked to find out about this.
"Eh? So you did have my medal! I'm going to..."
"Stop Uva...he gave you your Core Medal, right? So give him back the yellow ones...please...?"
Uva reluctantly did so, giving Kazari the Ocelot, and Sabaru Medals, and now both Greeds have their respective Core Medals back, and now they regained their body armors.
"Good...now no more fighting...okay...?"
And so the two Greed left and went to their quarters though Gameru arrived and only Kazari is there, and when the feline-Greed asked what happened, the heavy animal-Greed told him the answer, which Kazari is visibly alarmed and immediately left to find O's to see if what Gameru said is true, as he couldn't comprehend that O's has the Lion medal in his possession.
"This can't be…this I have to see…!"

Later that night, as Kyuji arrives at the MPD where Shiho is waiting, he saw Kogoro and Heiji showing the police captain the footage of the four Greee's first appearance at the Tokyo Tunnel and there the clerk positively identifies Kazari as the one who caused her to faint, while the shop owner is able to bring the CCTV footage which shows that Kazari is the one who broke the shelves' locks and made off with the cellphones.
"Captain...here is the footage of the four goons in costumes that appear at the Tokyo Tunnel..."
"Miss...can you identify one of them as the one who ransacked the shop...?"
"That's him! That's the one with the dreadlock hair which resembled a cat!"
"So, captain...any questions...?"
The police captain is forced to acknowledge this fact and absolves the clerk of the charges, much to Ran's relief though Shiho and Kyuji wondered why Ankh hasn't showed up and when she called Agasa, they learned that he hasn't returned. They then pondered on what to do next as they are concerned about Shinichi's body n Ankh's possession.
-x-
The next day, the Bison Yummy attacks a construction site to get O's attention. Sensing the Yummy, Ankh attempts to crawl to the monster's location when Ai and Kyuji appears with Cell Medals he has been loaned from Kougami and uses them to heal Ankh, who is reluctant to accept them at first.
"You..."
"I knew something has happened to you...so Ai convinced me to seek out Kougami and asked him for a loan...so I brought 10 Cell Medals so you can heal up..."
"It's better this way, Ankh..."
"Bah! Are you doing this to spite me?What's the catch?"
"Oh, nothing..."
"Hah! Like I'd believe you!"
"Have it your way..."
After being "fed" with the Cell Medals, Ankh had no choice but to acknowledge the humans' "assistance" and decided to lead them to the Bison Yummy's location. Several minutes later, the trio arrived at the construction site, where the Yummy is causing damage and there Ankh tells Kyuji to finish off the Yummy as it had only one Cell Medal in it, and then Kyuji initiates his transformation into O's.
O-Belt: "TAKA...TORA...BATTA! TA-TO-BA...TA-TO-BA-TA-TO-BA!"
O then started fighting the Bison Yummy but then despite having only produced one Cell Medal, the yummy remained strong and throttled O's around which forced him to change tactic by inserting the Kamakiri Medal and scans it with the O-Scanner and now assumes the sub-combo of "Taka-Kiri-Ba".
O-Belt: "TAKA...KAMAKIRI...BATTA!"
Despite using the Kamakiri Blades, the Bison Yummy is still strong and poses a threat, which causes Ankh to adopt another tactic and decides to give O's a suggestive tactic, but is turned down, much to Ai's surprise.
"Kyuji...it's not working...use the Tora Medal again and try to rake its eyes..."
"Thanks...but I got a better idea..."
"What?"
"Kyuji...what are you...?"
Removing the Taka Medal, O's inserts the Lion Medal and scans it again with the O-Scanner to initiate another transformation.
O-Belt: "LION...KAMAKIRI...BATTA!"
Much to Ai and Ankh's shock, O's uses the Lion Medal in conjunction with the Tora and Batta Medals to assume another sub-combo of "Ra-Kiri-Ba" and Ankh demanded how O's got hold of Kazari's medal, which he got his answer and the Greed is irritated that there are others who has possessions of the Core Medals.
"Wow..."
"Where did you get that Core Medal? It's from Kazari!"
"Oh...a gift from Kougami..."
"Darn...that guy again...!"
Using the tactic from yesterday, O's uses the Lion Medal's power to blind the Bison Yummy then scans the three Core Medals with the O-Scanner to activate the Scanning Charge finisher and with the Lion Head shining brightly, the Yummy is blinded and burning with O's destroying him using the Kamakiri Blades, which the monster exploded, leaving with only a single Cell Medal remaining.
As the trio left, Kazari is standing behind a crane machine, shocked at the sight of O's possessing the Lion Medal, and after hearing O's telling him that he got it from someone, he now concluded that someone else has knowledge of the Core Medals besides the Greed.
"So what Gameru said is true...O's do have my Lion Medal...but how did this happen? Ankh never showed it before...then that means someone else is involved..."
Kazari then left as he pondered on what to do next now as he intends to find out who else is involved in the Core Medal hunt.
To Be Continued…
This ends this arc with O's getting a new Core Medal which turns out that it belonged to Kazari, and a new mystery enters the plot line as Kousei Kougami appeared to have some knowledge about the Greed, and the Core Medals, such as giving O's the Lion Medal. What is his agenda and what are his intentions?
The cellphone heist is solved with the clerk proven innocent yet they still have to regain the stolen loot as they have no lead on where to find the Greed's lair.
Okay…50 chapters have passed, and surprisingly, I lost count and realized that I didn't expect that I made it this far. I owe this to you readers. Thanks!
