*The city of Tenochtitlan is shown desolate and full of burning ruins, while Shun and Puppet are shown face to face*
Puppet: *Think as his worried face shows* What the hell is this guy doing here? Did he see it coming? No, that is impossible, no matter how clever he is, it is impossible that he foresaw the exact place and time
Puppet: *Think* Here's a cat in the closet. Did one of us leak information? No, I doubt it very much. What the hell is going on?
Shun: *With a mocking look* What's going on? You look a little nervous
Puppet: *Think* I have to report the situation to Yogen before it's too late
Puppet: *Think* What the hell am I thinking?
*Puppet's body begins to expel terrifying energy*
Puppet: *Think* Yes... This is my moment, I have to destroy him, destroy the strongest man of all, and so, make him my puppet
*Puppet looks at Shun with a disturbing smile, while Shun just looks at him coldly*
Shun: *Think* This guy is nothing to write home about, but that power he has, it's worrying, if he manages to evolve it further, I don't know what he'll be capable of, that's why...
*In the blink of an eye, hundreds of humans appear pulled by strings behind Shun*
*Shun reacts instantly, moving quickly between attacks, blocking some of the attacks while hitting the other puppets*
*All puppets retract, protecting Puppet*
Puppet: You're really interesting, I thought I'd give you some wounds after that, but look at you, you don't have any scratches
Shun: *Think* That bastard wasn't looking to scratch me, every one of those attacks was aimed at my vital points
Shun: *Think* I have to remove it, as soon as possible, if this goes on like this...
*Behind Shun appear dozens of Puppets, which surround Shun along with the other puppets, leaving him with no escape route*
Shun: *Smiling* You Miserable
*Shun sees a small gap upwards, so he prepares to flee, but is caught by Puppet's threads that prevent him from escaping*
*After this all the puppets impact Shun by piercing him in every corner of his body*
*Puppet begins to laugh uncontrollably while a pool of blood is shown coming out of the mountain of puppets*
*Puppet starts jumping for joy as he screams over and over again that he has made it*
*In an instant a flash of light appears, where dozens of bodies are cut in half*
Puppet: *Surprised* It can't be...
*Shun is shown coming out of the mountain of puppets while blood drips on his body*
Shun: *With a blank stare* I have to admit that you surprised me, you seemed like a guy who gets carried away by his impulses, but you're more calculating than I thought
Puppet: *Terrified* How is it possible...
*Shun's body is shown without any scratches*
*Shun remembers the moment when he was surrounded by all the puppets*
Shun: Those guys weren't lifeless bodies, they...
Puppet: *With weakened voice* A-Help
*Shun's contemptuous face is shown when observing the situation*
*Back to the present*
Shun: They were alive... they still had dreams... They were people
*Shun's body begins to expel a gigantic amount of energy that overwhelms Puppet*
Shun: *Think* Now I remember, this world is cruel... in this world, the only one who rules is the strong... Is this what you saw that day?
*Flashback*
Shun: What did you say?!
Unknown: We have lost
Shun: Stop talking stupid things, the war is still going on, what are you talking about?
Unknown: Yes... But, I failed in what I wanted to achieve, just like my father, I failed
Shun: Don't with me! You were the one who started this, you... You gave me something to dream about
Unknown: Yes... but I failed... I wasn't able to unite all the races... I was not able to bring peace to this world, I was not able to fulfill that dream...
Shun: This isn't over until the king falls, get up and fall in battle
Unknown: Could you two forgive me?
*The scene is expanded and a young Loki is shown next to the stranger and Shun*
Loki: What are you talking about?
Unknown: There is a way for this to continue, for this fight not to fall, but the two of you will have to carry this weight.
Shun: I don't know and I don't care, just give us the order, we fully trust you
Loki: *Smiles* Yes, we'll carry this, captain
Unknown: *Relieved* Thank you and sorry guys...
*Back to the present*
Shun: *Think* Damn bastard, you've always liked complicated things. To achieve peace between all the races? You have to be an idiot to dream of something like that...
Shun: *Think* But... for that very reason trust in you, Ra
Shun: *Think* And I'll bet everything on your absurd dream, and on the one you trusted will get it, here and now I'll open the doors for that idiot to turn the world upside down
*In the blink of an eye, Shun launches himself at high speed towards Puppet, but a huge explosion of energy stops him*
*In the distance a great explosion is shown due to the gigantic energy that Eden has released*
Shun: *Think* Perhaps... Were you expecting this? Damn bastards
*Each of the battles that were taking place around the battlefield is shown, being interrupted by the immense power of Eden*
Aphrodite: This power...
Yosa: Has it always been so strong?
Tiresias: It looks like the chick has finally hatched
*Yosa is shown watching from afar with her hands full of blood while smiling with excitement
*In the blink of an eye, Shun launches a powerful attack with his fist that cracks the air itself and eliminates dozens of puppets*
*Puppet angrily throws several more puppets that are eliminated in one hit by Shun*
*Shun begins to get closer and closer, eliminating all the enemies in his path, finally appearing face to face against Puppet*
Puppet: *Think* I don't have any more time!
*Shun charges his energy with a large amount of energy that goes straight to Puppet's face, finally hearing an impact*
*Shun's fist is shown impacting a sword*
Shun: You damn bastard, you've been late in getting there
*Yogen is shown protecting Puppet from Shun's attack*
Puppet: Yogen...
Yogen: Quickly continue with the plan! We cannot miss this opportunity
Puppet: Yes!
*Shun and Yogen back off*
Shun: Hey, hey, where do you think you're going? I've still got something pending with you, damn
*Shun draws his sword that gives off a surprising amount of energy*
*Shun in the blink of an eye lunges at Puppet, throwing a powerful slash with his sword, which is blocked by Yogen*
*However, the shock wave sweeps away dozens of nearby houses and destroys the ground*
*Puppet seizes the moment and flees to where Eden is*
Shun: Damn you, what are you up to?
Yogen: I'm sorry Shun, but this one escapes your understanding, not even a man as strong as you is able to understand what his power can do
Shun: *Think* What does this sound like to me?
Alexbold: Captain!
Shun: You're coming at a good time idiot, follow the idiot of the puppets, don't let them take Eden away
Alexbold: Huh? Ok!
*Yogen appears right in front of Alexbold, before he can react*
Alexbold: *Think* Am I going to...
*In an instant Shun appears to punch Yogen and bury him in the ground*
Shun: Now!
Alexbold: Yes!
*Alexbold moves quickly towards Puppet*
*Yogen is shown rising from the rubble completely unharmed*
Yogen: It looks like the data didn't lie, you're terrifyingly strong, if I hadn't protected myself, I'd be dead right now
Shun: And you tell me? What the hell are you made of?
*Shun is shown with a totally broken finger*
Yogen: I'm surprised that you managed to deduce our plans, although it seems that they acted a little late
Shun: yes... You could say yes
Yogen: I would say it's a pleasure to finally meet someone at my level, but, it's a hassle to have to deal with you. If you keep wasting your time here, a lot of your men will probably die
Shun: Hey, hey, stop underestimating my boys, they won't die, they're stronger than you think. Besides, I don't think you'll let me move an inch from here, do you?
*Yogen lets out a small smile*
*In the blink of an eye, both launch themselves into the attack, starting a fierce exchange of sword attacks that shakes the entire city*
*Waves on the coast are shown moving slowly*
