Kuromukuro (クロムクロ)

Longarm picking up speed!

At this rate, it'll reach this facility in five minutes!

Have you found Fusnarnie?

Not yet.

I cannot tell you what I do not know!

Longarm approaching!

GAUS 1, 2, and the Black Relic,

prepare to sortie!

This isn't over.

Keep asking as you may, my answer shan't change!

That bastard is my enemy!

The alien went "zoom"!

And then Jiro went "bang"!

The prisoner suddenly showed up at the lab!

Jiro's...

Jiro!

He's alive!

Are you all right?

Thank god...

You didn't abandon me...

Where is he?

He took his sword and ran.

What?

Found him!

Yukina!

She's with the alien?

Why?

Where are they?

Damage report!

Block 04's main power line has been cut!

Security system still down!

We'll need five minutes to switch to the backup.

Can we launch the GAUS?

Not yet!

What was that just now?

The Longarm attacked.

Also, Fusnarnie escaped and took Yukina!

What?!

Ken!

Take this!

Many thanks!

Auto-pilot?

And it can even be remote-controlled, apparently.

Did we know it had those capabilities?

Save the questions for later.

First, we need to send this piece of trash to hell—

Whoa, whoa, whoa!

Piece of shit!

Milady, do be careful.

Understood.

Have they started fighting?

The radio's down, too.

The Black Relic was ordered to launch, right?

Huh? Yukina?

Aren't you going to change?

You're...

Oh?

Come.

Are you...

afraid?

I'm amazed a coward like you could wield it.

T-Tell me about it!

Kennosuke!

But that's good.

Your eyes are filled with panic, anxiety, and fear.

How nice.

Truly nice.

That is my favorite human expression of all.

I love how you look when you beg for mercy right before you die.

But fret not.

I won't kill you.

You still have a job to do.

Keep going down.

Aren't we heading toward the Black Relic?

The Glongur comes later.

I finally found it.

It's a hinge stone.

Hinge?

That's it?

Hey!

You okay?

Useless junk!

¿Qué te pasa?

What the...?

That's the first-floor entrance to the LMV Elevator.

They went downstairs?

A man and a girl, believed to be Yukina, were spotted at the excavation site!

Send the Alpha and Bravo squads there at once!

Is Yukina okay?

Do everything you can to capture Fusnarnie and rescue Yukina Shirahane!

If you believe he's a threat to human life,

you may shoot to kill!

Hold on a second.

For investigative and research purposes,

we ask that you capture Fusnarnie alive.

We're going to prioritize Yukina and Kennosuke's lives.

Kennosuke?

You trust him?

Yes.

On what basis?

Nothing concrete.

But...

He's a samurai!

Where the hell is the shitty samurai?

I'll stop this gorilla's long arms.

Take that chance to blow its annoying ass up.

Always with the vulgarity.

Understood.

This is an older model,

so it requires two wielders to activate...

You and me.

Before that, we'll have to unlink that man and the Glongur,

and have it form a contract with me.

Activate it.

Wait!

Kennosuke!

Unhand that woman.

I don't take orders from you.

What?

What was it you called this? The Black Relic?

I'm taking it back.

And I'm taking this female wielder with me.

Screw you!

Just you try putting one scratch on her.

I'll cast you into the depths of hell, if it's the last thing I do!

How dare you!

Are you not Sadakuro Saito, the Washiba Clan's Third Squad Captain?

What?

Did you not serve the Washiba Clan head?

I've seen you near the castle.

What are you going on about?

You're the one who turned on us.

I have never been on your side!

Then how can you operate the Black Relic?

Only my brethren should be able to wield it.

That's...

Answer my question!

Why have you become a minion of the demons?

The demons? Whatever do you mean?

So your memories really have been altered, huh?

What?

That cannot be!

That couldn't have been a lie!

There!

Kennosuke!

Surrender.

You cannot escape.

Then I shall take that wielder down with me!

This is it, huh...

I cannot live on in disgrace after this...

Ken—

What now?

It stopped.

Vale!

Let's get back to work!

Is this their "hinge"?

According to Yukina, Fusnarnie saw this and said "I finally found it."

What could it be?

Shall we analyze this fragment to estimate and replicate its complete form?

We're taking his body into our custody.

Okay.

Who do you think was telling the truth? Fusnarnie or Kennosuke?

At this point, the truth is shrouded in darkness.

Did they fall out?

Or did he silence him?
