"Protect whatever is precious to you. One day it'll lead you to proteething else."— Yami Sukehiro, Bck Clover

  Gyarados roared, unleashing a massive [Hydro Pump] from its mouth.

  The torrent of water surged towards Ravel and the others like an unstoppable flood.

  Several of Riser's servants, including Isabe, rushed to defend Ravel.

  But even they weren't fident in their ability to withstand such a powerful attack.

  Just in time, Yubelluna, swuaff, juring a rge red magic circle before them.

  A crimson beam of destructive energy shot out, intercepting Gyarados's [Hydro Pump].

  Boom!

  The collision of water aruagic created a massive explosion.

  The entire area was engulfed in a cloud of mist.

  When the mist cleared, a crater over teers in diameter was revealed at the ter of the explosion.

  The sheer destructive power shocked Riser's servants.

  They were already terrified of Gyarados, and now their fear intensified.

  Even Aoi Kanzaki and Karmine, who were fighting nearby, had to pause their duel.

  Saya, however, frowned. She khe power of Gyarados's [Hydro Pump]. It could easily level a small hill.

  Yet, it had been effortlessly blocked.

  Saya pondered her move.

  A cle assault with Gyarados was risky. They were outnumbered, and if Gyarados was held back, Saya would be in danger.

  Although Roy was behind her, Saya wao prove herself. She couldn't rely on Roy to fight her battles.

  It seemed she had to resort to a more powerful attack.

  She had to seize the initiative. Otherwise, who knew what kind of magic Yubelluna might unleash?

  "Koi, use [Hyper Beam]" Saya anded decisively.

  Gyarados, having just evolved, hadn't learned [Hyper Beam] yet.

  But they had brought the learning maes from the Pokémon world.

  Gyarados had learned [Hyper Beam] in advance.

  With a ryarados charged a powerful energy sphere in its mouth. The sphere grew rger and rger, theed outwards.

  A devastating beam of energy shot towards the enemy. Ravel and the others felt a sense of impending doom.

  If they were hit directly by such a powerful attack, they might die before the subspace could evehem.

  Yubellued quickly, unleashing her full power.

  A massive magic circle appeared, and a crimson beam of destruagic collided with Gyarados's [Hyper Beam].

  Explosion magic versus [Hyper Beam].

  Both were incredibly destructive forces.

  Like a csh of energy beams in Dragon Ball, the two attacks collided in mid-air.

  Then, [Hyper Beam] overpowered the explosion magid tiowards Yubelluna and the others.

  Boom!

  Another earth-shattering explosioed.

  Except for Karmine, all of Riser's remaining servants were caught i.

  When the smoke cleared, ane crater, evehan the previous one, was revealed.

  Yubelluna and Ravel y at the bottom of the crater, their clothes tattered and their bodies covered in wounds.

  The irls were o be seen. They had beeed.

  "One Rook, one Knight, one Bishop, and two Pawns of Riser Phenex have beeed," Grayfia's voinounced.

  Gyarados's [Hyper Beam] had taken out five of Riser's servants.

  It was a testament to the power of that move.

  Thanks to Yubelluna's desperate defehe [Hyper Beam]'s power had been signifitly weakehat's why the five ejected servants weren't seriously injured.

  If Yubelluna hadn't been a High-bsp;Devil, she would have beeed as well.

  And Ravel, with her Phoenix fmes, hadn't been eliminated either.

  Her fmes surged, and her wounds healed in an instant. However, her face was still pale.

  "How is this possible...?" Karmiared at Yubelluna in shock.

  Yubelluna was the stro among them.

  Yet, even she couldn't pletely withstand the attack of that terrifying Familiar.

  If she hadn't been fighting Aoi Kanzaki on the sidelines, she had no doubt she would have been eliminated as well.

  "A-Amazing..." Aoi gasped, stunned by the destructive power of Gyarados.

  "Koi is s!" Asia excimed, her jaw dropped.

  Roy wasn't surprised. Despite their seemingly harmless appearan the anime, Pokémon possessed immense destructive power.

  ...

  Iing Game arena in the Underworld, the audience was stunned by Gyarados's power.

  "I've never seen a Dragon like that before. It doesn't seem to be from the Dragon Valley," Sirzechs Lucifer ented, gng at Tannin.

  "Indeed, it's not from the Dragon Valley. In fact, it's unlike any known Dragon species," Tannin replied, stroking his with his massive cw.

  Tannin was one of the inal Dragon Kings.

  He had voluntarily reinated as a Devil aablished his territory in the region of the Underworld where the Dragon Apples grew.

  His territory was home to many Dragons, and he was an expert on them.

  Sona was also shocked by Gyarados's power, but her curiosity iqued.

  She wondered where Roy had obtained su unfamiliar Familiar.

  "Rias, you must know where Roy acquired that Familiar, right?" she asked.

  Rias smiled slyly. "If you want to know, Sona, ask Roy yourself."

  She wouldn't reveal Roy's secrets.

  Sona sighed and turned her attention to Roy, her curiosity growing.

  ...

  Ba the subspaezuko and Mitsuri suddenly appeared beside Roy, followed by Saeko and the others.

  The girls stared at the devastation caused by Gyarados, surprised by its power.

  Even Nezuko and Mitsuri, at their full strength, couldn't cause such destru.

  "Well, well, well... impressive. If I'm not mistaken, you're just a Bishop, aren't you?" Yubelluna, despite her injuries, mao stand up.

  She looked at Saya with defiance, as if victory was still within her grasp.

  Saya frowned. "Yes, I'm a Bishop. You're severely injured and have no fighting strength left. Surrender."

  "Hahaha..." Yubelluna burst into ughter.

  "I am the Queen of Riser Phenex!"

  She took out a small red vial from her bosom, filled with a fiery red liquid.

  Without hesitation, she uncorked the vial and drank its tents.

  Her wounds healed at an astonishing speed.

  Her aura surged, returning to its peak. In the blink of an eye, Yubelluna was fully recovered, as if she had never been injured.

  "Wait, wait, you use potions in a Rating Game? That's cheating!" Saya excimed, dumbfounded.

  "Hmph! This is the Tears of the Phoenix. It instantly heal any injury. It's a secret treasure of our . We only use up to two vials per game," Ravel expined proudly, her fiery wings fluttering.

  "That's not fair! It's against the rules!" Rika protested.

  "Hmph! You have the Twilight Healing" Ravel retorted.

  Rika eechless.

  Asia articipating as a Bishop. How could she be pared to a mere item? But Rika didn't buing.

  "Don't think you've won just because you've recovered. You're surrounded," Saya decred, crossing her arms.

  She khey had the advantage, so she wasn't worried about Yubelluna's underhaactics.

  "Your Familiar 't unleash that attack again, it?" Yubelluna sneered.

  Saya g Gyarados.

  It had exhausted itself using [Hyper Beam] and couldn't use it again anytime soon.

  "So what?" Saya remained fident.

  Even if Gyarados couldn't fight, they still had Nezuko and Mitsuri.

  The differen power between Middle-bsp;and High-bsp;Devils was signifit, which was why Yubellu so fident.

  In her eyes, apart from Gyarados, the rest of Roy's peerage were just Middle-bsp;Devils.

  She believed she could easily defeat them.

  Yubelluna smirked and flew into the air.

  "Taste my explosion Magic!"

  She waved her hand, and the sky filled with red magic circles of various sizes, radiatiructive energy.

  Yubelluna inteo wipe out Roy's eeam with a siack.

  Roy smirked. "Nezuko, Mitsuri, it's your turn," he said calmly.

  He wasn't pnning to intervene. Only those two could handle Yubelluna's full-powered attack.

  "Yes!" they both replied, spreading their Devil wings.

  "Demonization!" Nezuko activated her Demon Blood Art.

  Her petite form rapidly grew into that of a tall, mature woman.

  Her clothes, now too small, g tightly to her curves, atuating her figure.

  A plete Demon horn emerged from her forehead, and wisteria-like patterns spread across her body.

  These patterns, far from being unsightly, added an eerie beauty to her appearance.

  In her fully demonized form, Nezuko possessed the power of a High-bsp;Devil.

  Mitsuri was equally formidable. With a shout, she activated her Demon Syer Mark.

  A pink, heart-shaped mark appeared on the left side of her neck.

  With the Mark activated, Mitsuri's physical abilities skyrocketed, rivaling a High-bsp;Devil.

  Yubelluna, their power from the sky, frowned.

  She had initially believed that only the Gyarados posed a threat.

  Now, two more High-bsp;Devil level batants had appeared.

  This plicated things.

  Her inal pn was to elimihe Gyarados first, thehe Tears of the Phoenix to recover a the rest.

  But Roy's peerage was far strohan she had anticipated.

  She was in a difficult situation now, but she had to press on.

  As Nezuko and Mitsuri charged towards her, Yubelluna waved her hand.

  The magic circles unleashed a barrage of explosive fireballs.

  Boom! Boom! Boom!

  The sky turned crimson, filled with smoke and explosions.

  But acc to the "smoke without damage" rule, such attacks wouldn't harm them.

  Swoosh! Swoosh!

  Nezuko and Mitsuri emerged from the smoke.

  Their clothes were slightly disheveled, but they were unharmed.

  Nezukeion was incredible. Even if she was injured, she could recover instantly.

  Moreover, as a Rook, her natural defenses were formidable.

  And Mitsuri's physical resilience was already superhuman, further enhanced by the Rook piece she had merged with.

  Her defense was monstrous.

  They reached Yubelluna in an instant.

  "Blood Demon Art: Exploding Blood!"

  "Love Breathing, Fifth Form: Wavering Love - Wildcw!"

  Nezuko and Mitsuri attacked simultaneously.

  Nezuko's fist, engulfed in crimson fmes, struck Yubelluna.

  Mitsuri unleashed a flurry of sshes with her sword.

  Yubelluna barely mao jure a defensive magic circle.

  But it was useless. The magic circle shattered instantly.

  Nezuko's fist ected, and her Blood Demon Art fmes engulfed Yubelluna.

  Mitsuri's sshes nded, inflig several deep wounds.

  Yubelluna, overwhelmed by their bined assault, was sent crashing to the ground like a meteor, creating a cloud of dust.

  "Queen!"

  "Yubelluna!"

  Karmine and Ravel cried out in arm, witnessing Yubelluna's defeat.

  They couldn't believe that the powerful Yubelluna had beeed so swiftly.

  "Riser Phenex's Queen has been eliminated." Grayfia's voice echoed through the subspace.

  Yubelluna, unscious, dissolved into particles of light and was ejected.

  The High-bsp;Devil, Yubelluna, had beeed in an instant by the bined might of Nezuko and Mitsuri.

  "Mitsuri is s!" Shinobu excimed in awe.

  Even among the Hashira, Mitsuri was sidered one of the stro, far surpassing Shinobu.

  And after being a Devil, the gap between them had widened even further.

  "Nezuko is amazing too!" Kanae praised Nezuko, who was more powerful than all of them despite her young age.
