Takeru reached the Sky Platform
Where he found the Shield of Courage
Mikazuchi appeared also to take the shield
They both were tested
Those who pass may take the Shield
Takeru was forced to choose between his friends or the Shield of Courage
In the end Takeru chose his friends so Mikazuchi received the Shield
The Phoenix merged with Gaioh and Mikazuchi left with Oto
31. THE DRAGON RISES
Don't make me laugh...
I don't need your help. I can handle Yamato Takeru on my own
Let me finish...
Amatsumi is K.I.A. and Hayamika too is now a traitor. The only ones left are you, me and Amon...
If we wait it out the mission will be given to Amon
It can't
The Tsukuyomi won't care who defeated Yamato Takeru
Am I wrong Kushinaga?
If we work together, taking out Takeru would be easy
Then we'll take care of Amon...
We're finally going home...
You'll get to see everyone you once knew
That'll be great
What's that?
Takeru!
What's wrong?
Takeru?
Are you okay Takeru?
I'm... I'm fine
What now?!
The Cargo Bay
Susanoo!
Stop! What are you doing!
Susanoo!
He's destroying the ship!
Yeah but what do we do!
We open the Cargo Doors!
Do it! There's no time!
Open the Cargo Doors!
Susanoo...
Professor!
I can't control it!
Get away!
Aunty!
What!
Stay back!
Enough!
Brother?
Isn't it great? This is a World under the Sea called the Arcane Sanctum
Arcane Sanctum?
Susanoo?
In this world, Susanoo is a God
A God?
A hundred million years ago
A giant came from the skies
That was Susanoo
It came for the Dragon Essence at the core of Cloud 7
These beings saw his absolute power and worshipped him as a God
These beings are the Dark Society of Cloud 7
Look
When the flame reaches the statues chest, the Arcane Sanctum's Prophecy will commence
Prophecy?
Unleashing the Crimson Dragon's power
Into you!
Fight it Brother! Don't you understand you are just being controlled by the Dragon?
After this you won't be saying that
Bro...
Bro!
What do you doing Oto?
I'd rather die than unite with the Crimson Dragon
Go ahead... You'll never see Yamato Takeru again...
Whatever happens I won't be possessed by the Crimson Dragon!
You'll never leave the Arcane Sanctum...
Stop!
You're free now...
Manta...
Mummy!
Takeru?
How's Aunty?
We still haven't fixed the Ship and who knows where Susanoo's gone
Susanoo?
A Cave! I remember seeing a Huge Cave in a dream
That's no dream
That cave is the Crimson Dragon's Shell
Crimson Dragon's Shell?
It's found deep within Cloud 7. That's the name it was given
So Susanoo?
It's definitely a powerful force drawing him towards the Crimson Dragon's Shell
Who's behind this!
Someone who wants to destroy this Planet
It can't be
Susanoo was the Shadow Guardian originally created to destroy this Planet
That was a long time ago
Never underestimate the Shadow Guardians...
The truth is you changed Susanoo a lot
But the Dark Prophecy that lies deep within him
Won't disappear because of you.
Dark Prophecy?
What is it?
Shishinoo!
And Tokino
(Stupid Kushinaga... After I take care of Yamato Takeru I'll come for you and Amon as well)
(Heh, do you really think I don't know what you're planning?)
(I'll have the last laugh)
[STOP!]
Ghost, Kushinaga! I'll teach you two second rate Shadow Warriors a lesson
Shut up traitor!
Let's seal that mouth of yours
You think I'm scared because it's two against one?
Gaiden!
If Susanoo was here
Let me pilot Tamanoo!
Kaon!
No don't go near it!
Kaon!
It's Blood Pact
What Pact?
Amatsumi is dead but his Evil Aura still emanates from within
What!?
Damn him!
Takeru!
We are all familiar with your Combat Style and Tactics
Takeru!
We need to hurry or we're going to lose Kaon. Amatsumi's spirit will take him over!
Kaon!
Takeru, the Ocarina!
Play it!
It worked on Susanoo the first time
Kaon
Takeru...
You're still a failure... Gaiden
Soon it will be Yamato Takeru's turn
DIE!
Tamanoo!
Kaon!
Witness the power of Tamanoo reborn!
Two can play that game
What the! I can't predict his moves!
Damn you!
Take this!
What!
Kaon, I'll take care of this one
Damn you!
Kushinaga Fall back!
Damn it!
We're lucky there happened to be a ship heading for the village
And there's a good doctor onboard. So Aunty Manta will be fine in no time
Thank you
Let everyone know me and Roka are fine
I will, stay safe
Little bro
Remember to stop fighting with Takeru all the time
Old man are we there yet? Where is the Shell anyway?
Old man!
WAKE UP OLD MAN!
No need to be so loud we'll be there soon
Soon? But we're in the middle of the Ocean
The Shell is in the Heart of the Ocean
Who's there?
Did you come just to see me?
Thank you
But I don't have anything for you
Oh wait!
You can have this
Let go!
Incredible
This is the Dragon's Shell?
A hundred million years ago, Susanoo attempted to recover the Dragon Essence within the cave
What is it Takeru?
I can hear Oto
You can?
Is it all in your head?
There it is again! It's coming from the Shell
Takeru!
Your hatred is a sign that the Dragon's Spirit is already in you
Stop it! Stop it!
Susanoo!
