As shinki begins to laugh while he's on the floor, he says "Its about time you realized I'm your elder brother. Damn kazuki you've gotten strong, really strong". Kazuki with a sad look on his face then says "Why? I dont get it. Just why? You left me alone while I was just a kid, you joined some kind of terrorist group, and nearly killed my friend. Why did you do all that?", shinki then smiles as he says "I did that all that so you will become strong. I knew that if I had left you on your own, you will be able to figure things out which you ended up doing. I did all that coz I wanted the best for you, to be independent". Kazuki then responded saying "I still don't get it, I mean why did you go to all these lengths, you even became a criminal! Why?", shinki then explains to kazuki as he says "Like I said, i did that all for you. I wiped out your memories so you wont remember me, so that you will be strong. And plus I became the criminal that I am because of the city. I despise that place so much, but its another story for another day". Shinki then starts vomiting blood as pulls of his shirt, kazuki is then shocked as he sees a hole on shinki's chest. Shinki says "Oh damn, diablo didn't hold back at all, he just showed me a tiny piece of his insane power and yet it knocked a hole through me". Shinki then tells kazuki "I'm guessing it's my time to die now, I have no regrets because I was able to make you strong. Please kazuki, become extremely strong, and make sure whatever you do, you dont die. And always know I love you". After a while as the rain continued to fall, kazuki then realizes that shinki wasn't responding and then came to a conclusions that he is dead. Kazuki was looking so depressed as he begins to cry. Meanwhile, sorata and kenji were watching from a far distance as sorata sighs and says "I wasn't expecting shinki to go out like that. Out of everyone in the dark sign we both understood each other, I'm not forgetting you till I die shinki", kenji then says "Well we cant do anything about it, I'll miss him". After crying, kazuki wipes out his tears as he says to himself "I'll get stronger just as you said, I'm not just going to be strong but i'll be the strongest "Few hours later while the rain stops and the sun begins to shine, sorata and kenji walk up to shinki's body laying on the ground as shinki then asks "Sorata, is that you? I can sense your presence", sorata then responds as he says "I'm surprised you are still alive with that hole in chest. By the way, I cant bear to see you laying down like this.". Shinki then says "While I was in the dark sign, we both understood each other well. Infact, you were the closest friend I've had. The fact you came up to me shows how strong our friendship was, thanks". Sorata then asks shinki "Do you have any dying words? I'd like to hear them from you". Shinki then says "The only regret I had was not being able to be there for kazuki, I really wish i could spend time with my little brother", sorata then scratches his head with a nervous smile and says "Even upon how evil we are, we still have people we care about. It looks like the love you had for your brother is stronger than the one I have with mine".Shinki then laughs as he slowly coughs out blood, he says "My time is up, I'll see you at the other side. Don't join me to early now.", shink then takes his dying breath, while sorata then says "See you at the other side". The sun then begins to shine as sorata looks up in the sky. Meanwhile, the black fire group were walking on the waste lands as they were coming back from a mission. kazui says "The mission veronica gave us was kind of hard you know? It's kind of wierd how things are happening tho, mission this and that", luck then smiles as she responds saying "You dont have to be a chad about it you know, and plus you didn't really do much to take care of the the terrorists group. You just sat as I and tobi were doing the hard work. Right tobi?". Tobi who was lost in thought with a sad look on his face as he remembers when he ran passed a person looking to be his sister. Luck then picks up a tiny peddle as she throws it at tobi to get his attention. Luck says "Tobi you've been acting strange, are you okay?", tobi then responded saying "I'm fine, I've just been lost in thought lately that's all". Kazui then says "If there's anything bothering you? you can just tell us, after all we are a team", tobi then smiles as he says "Yeah thanks, I really appreciate you guys". In the city while serena and sukuna were sparring with Raquel as serena was blasting electric bullets at her while sukuna was also blasting plasma beams at her, Raquel activates her crystal eye as she crystallized her hand and starts to punch their attacks away, causing explosions in the training grounds as she was deflecting their attacks. Serena then concentrate a large amount of electricity at her feet as she began to move incredibly fast. As she tries to speed blitz her, Raquel blocks the attack as serena kept on firing powerful punches and kicks while Raquel was just blocking them despite how fast serena was moving. Veronica who was watching the sparring then tells them "That's enough, you've been at this for two hour now. The training is over, you can all rest now", sukuna then says "Oh come on we were just getting started, let's train a little bit more".
Serena then says "I don't know about you, but I'm getting tired. Plus Raquel's Crystal's are so strong not even my electric bullets can break them". Raquel then smiles weirdly as she says "Hope I didn't cause you much trouble? are your arms okay you've been throwing blows way to hard? I think you should limit the amount of energy you put in your electricity so you dont strain yourself". Serena then responds as she says "Nah, you dont need to worry at all. My punches aren't really that hard when i coat them with electricity". Veronica who was abit perplexed by what serena said, responded saying "What do you mean they aren't hard? You obliterated like 6 city blocks with just an average electric punch, talk less or electric bullets", sukuna thens says "Wow serena you are stronger than you look". Veronica then replies to sukuna as she says "The Same thing goes for you, your plasma beams are as deadly as her electricity, you two really need to learn how to be less destructive with your powers. And as for you Raquel, your stamina and durability are impressive, although you need to work on your attack power and learn how not to play defensive all the time. You have destructive capabilities but you hold yourself back".
