So you can't move in the way that's satisfactory to you, Grave...
So, he is Brandon...
Brandon Heat...
Brandon!
Amazing...
Sorry I'm late.
Let's cut to the chase.
I've received reports that our Orgmen were killed. Is that true?
It's true. There's no survivors. No witnesses.
They were completely wiped out.
These are the soldiers you've been bragging about?
I believe you're well aware of their capabilities.
What we need to be concerned about now...
...is this being who is capable of annihilating Orgmen.
Is there such a human being?
It's not necessarily a human. Besides, there's a single case on record, isn't there?
A record stating that there was someone who annihilated our prototype Orgmen.
But that happened 13 years ago.
That's right. It's the same as 13 years ago.
There IS such a man. A man who stands against us.
In which case, what do we do? The answer is simple.
We'll use the power of our organization, of Millennion, to exterminate him.
Utterly.
Boss...
Bob, when you find him, let me know. I'll take care of it.
The meeting seems to be over.
Let's get going, too, Lee.
Sure.
Boss...
I found this at the mansion I visited the other day.
I'll be going now, Boss.
Brandon...
Brandon Heat...
I haven't even thought about him in ages.
I heard about him from my mom.
That man, Brandon Heat, was an old friend of hers.
I don't know anything about his past. I only know that he was a talented sweeper.
"Was"?
If you'll excuse me, I'm going out to procure some equipment.
As for you, Miss, stay here and keep out of trouble.
One more thing. The man sitting there isn't named Brandon.
His name is Grave.
Beyond the Grave.
Beyond the Grave?...
You're my mom's old friend...
But you'll never see Mom again, either...
Because she's no longer among the living.
She was killed.
So is Tokioka. He died to protect me when he helped me escape.
It was Harry who gave the order.
Harry MacDowel.
Millennion's boss... Bloody Harry.
Mom was killed by Harry...
Harry?
Where am I?...
Who am I?...
I need to get more bullets somewhere.
Hey!
Are you feeling okay?
Thank goodness. It looks like you're all right.
I might want to ask them to hire me...
What is this?... Am I dreaming?
What's wrong?
Hey! Hello?
Let him do as he pleases.
But...
As long as he was asleep, nothing changed.
But now that he is awake, his mind will control him no matter what.
His past will control him...
How much farther do you plan to keep walking?
I AM injured, you know...
Admittedly, I did follow you without asking...
What's the matter? Are you all right?
At it again, huh, Brandon?
Yes, I remember... I remember them...
Come on inside! Ý've got some juicy stories for ya!
You thinking of giving that to Maria or something?
They are my comrades...
Brandon?
Me, I'll count on Brandon.
They're my comrades...
Right, Brandon?
Brandon.
Brandon...I want us to be free.
That's right...My name is...
Brandon Heat...
Are you all right?
This is where I...
Are these graves? Of people you know?
They must have been important to you.
I'm such an idiot...
My mom was killed, and all I've been thinking about is revenge against Bloody Harry.
I haven't thought about a funeral for my mom at all.
I'm sorry...
That's too big.
W- What is that?
What is that? Who is it?
Why do I protect?
Protect?
Protect!
I don't understand...
There are so many things that I don't understand...
But there is one thing I know for sure.
To protect is to not betray... To never betray.
Grave!
You're going to fight, Grave?
Mom was killed by Harry...
She was killed...
Maria!
What happened to him? Why is he suffering like that?
His memories are probably jumbled.
His memories? Why?
Because he's already died once.
As he was coming back from the dead,
...numerous memories have vanished from his memory.
He's trying to recover his past from his fragmented memories.
That's why he is suffering.
Please, do something for him... Please!
That's something that even I can't do.
Oh no...
But I can tell you this one thing.
He... Beyond the Grave... has protected you not just once, but twice.
There is something that he can't give in to within him.
That's for certain.
He is protecting me...
Get away, Mika. Go to where the Organization can't reach you.
What is the "Organization"? What do you mean by "get away"?
Go to where he is... Go to him!
Miss, I'm taking you to someone who will protect you.
Someone who will protect me?
Yes, I'm taking you to Brandon Heat.
Brandon Heat...
He died once and came back from the dead...
Beyond the Grave.
What? They let the girl get away? What was the enforcer squad doing?
I thought we had assigned an Orgman to them just to be sure!
The girl had a bodyguard.
A bodyguard?
Yes, sir.
I've sent you the data that Bob extracted from the memory of the slain Orgman.
Boss, don't let this shock you...
Nevertheless, it's the truth.
I see... So, you're alive, Brandon?
Are you going to betray me again, Brandon?
Brandon Heat, you say?
That's right. He is accompanying the offspring of Big Daddy.
He has even been equipped with enough power to destroy Orgmen.
That's not possible. He was killed by the Boss.
Kugashira is right. Thirteen years ago, I saw Brandon's dead body.
Brandon definitely died once. However...
It can't be... He was Necrolyzed?
Yes. If Brandon had already been Necrolyzed 13 years ago, everything falls into place.
It's understandable why he could destroy Orgmen.
I understand. I'll kill him.
Wait, Kugashira.
Why? He's a traitor to the Organization.
All that is given to a traitor is death. That is the Code of Iron of Millennion.
He's been Necrolyzed!
I don't care.
Wait, Bunji. Would you mind letting me to do that job?
Bob...
I think he is the best opponent for me to try my power on now that I've become Superior.
The traitor, Brandon Heat, will be executed by me, Bob Poundmax!
To keep on fighting is the only choice, right?
For me to survive... And to avenge Mom's death...
That's right.
I'd like to help you as much as I can.
As someone who once sold his soul to Satan, it's all I can do in atonement.
Along with him...
I was trying to bring back my past, in the midst of vague memories.
There must have been something in the past that I had to protect.
Something that I can't betray.
I'm sure of it...
Ashita wo ima ni nuri kae te ku...
...hajimari wa itami to namida.
Chirabaru kodoku tsuranuite ku...
...kodou wa mujyou no kanata.
"Ima iru kono basho wa suri heru dake no game."
Sore nara ore wa tada warau dake de kateru hazu.
Yoru wo koe te yuke.
Ima ni kotoba mo nanimo nakunatte kake dasu blues ga...
...yume miru dake no jibun wo nage dashite,
...ima ni setsuna mo towa mo kie satte nokosareta kono mi ga...
...nozomi no mama ni moe agaru made.
Repaint tomorrow into today...
...since the beginning starts with pain and tears.
The heartbeats that pierce through my scattered loneliness...
...are the depths of uncertainty.
"Where I am now is a game that only wears you down."
If so, I should be able to win by just laughing.
Let's go beyond the night.
Right now, these blues I play when I've lost it all, even words,...
...throw out the part of me that does nothing but dream,
...until it sets ablaze this body that remains after fleeting moment and eternity have disappeared.
Right now, just like I wanted.
A man is reunited with his best friend. But there was a profound gulf between them.
For them, even life and death meant different things.
They had nothing in common.
