When evil gods invade the Earth,
the warriors known as Saints always appear.
A new legend of the young Saints begins now!
At the fourth shrine, the House of Cancer,
House of Cancer
Koga, Yuna, and Ryuho reunite.
Meanwhile, Eden recovers from his depression,
swearing to protect the world Aria loved.
And sent elsewhere by Taurus Harbinger,
Taurus Harbinger
Soma and Haruto ascend the Houses of the Zodiac.
There are eight hours and thirteen minutes
until darkness engulfs the Earth.
How far did he send us?
We just have to keep going!
House of Leo
That's...
The House of Leo?
Turn back, Bronze Saints.
The two of you are not strong enough to proceed.
The Gold Saint of the House of Leo,
Leo Mycenae
Leo Mycenae.
Noble Pride! Mycenae, Fist of the King!
Noble Pride.
Mycenae, Fist of the King.
I'd rather I hadn't remembered that.
But don't think that we're the same as back then!
You believe a cub can beat a lion?
What's this?
This will be the last place you will fight.
Soma, let's go!
Yeah, let's start by punching him in the face!
Doton
Souga Hourou Jin!
Mycenae,
with all your power...
Why would you help Mars?
Surely you must understand...
That Mars is attempting to destroy this world!
So why?!
Even if others may call it evil...
Even if it brings forth many tragedies...
I will fulfill my duty to Mars-sama!
It was shortly before all this began...
I was moved by Mars-sama's noble will
just before the battle with Athena.
It's finally time.
Will my flames burn through the land,
and create a new world?
Or will Athena's light protect the world as it is?
Either way, this massive clash of Cosmos
will undoubtedly change this world.
However, Mycenae, I must do this.
This world is suffering to its limit.
I have a duty to create a new world
where the strong rule the weak,
a world without troubles or suffering.
I shall offer what assistance I can.
You must remain here.
Why?
This war will inflict grave wounds on both sides.
I ask that you use your fists, not for destruction,
but to protect my children who will eventually grow,
as well as the new world once it has been created.
You have this much faith in me?
Mars-sama, no...
Ludwig-sama...
I have abandoned that name.
I am
the god of war and flames, Mars!
But his noble will...
Doesn't even my father...
make mistakes?
Eden-sama...
Pegasus Koga...
An incredible darkness Cosmo hides within him.
Nothing less from Aria's other half...
He has grown well.
If we could use that power...
Wait.
Medea-sama, what do you...
To make Mars-sama's new world a reality, he could become a formidable partner.
Is that...
But...
If that were to happen, what of Eden-sama?
The strong stand above the weak.
That is the way of the world.
Eden-sama is your child.
Indeed.
I must have him rise up, even stronger.
He will be the new world's king, after all.
Eden-sama...
Above all else, the Golden Lion prizes loyalty.
Loyalty?
You would destroy the world for loyalty's sake?
I would.
For a loyalty I once swore, in accordance with my beliefs.
To act against it
would be to act against the duty this Cloth requires.
Shut up!
Fuji Style Secret Technique:
Houkou Tenro Kuzushi!
Such feeble Cosmo, yet you would lecture me?
Then, it is my turn to attack.
King's Roar!
My head!
All creatures tremble before the lion's roar.
What was that attack just now?
There were two...
He used two attacks at once.
Indeed.
King's Roar uses sound to freeze its prey.
Then the lion's fangs finish them.
Sure you want to let us in on the trick?
Understanding how it works
will not help you.
You think so?
In that case,
we just need to take you out before you can use your techniques!
Fools.
Mycenae,
you...
Jumonji Ganseki Kuzushi!
Lionet Burning Fire!
Did you think me over there?
King's Roar!
It's useless.
It's impossible for you to defeat me.
Leave.
Don't make me repeat myself.
If we were going to give up because you said so...
We never would've come in the first place.
Sorry...
But we don't give up easily.
A splendid persistence.
But the only thing it will bring
is your death!
We won't know if that's true...
...until we try.
This strong Cosmo of will I feel from them...
They will fight to their last breaths.
But what is the origin of that strong will?
Even pushed beyond their limits,
they will never give up.
They constantly support and strengthen each other's Cosmo.
Companions...
The bonds among companions?
The power of will backed by ties with one's companions.
And a strong faith.
One's love for one's comrades...
It can indeed give rise to miracles sometimes.
Then show me
what you can do!
You still stand?
I finally saw it.
What did you see?
The path your King's Roar takes.
After being hit with it multiple times, any fool could.
But just seeing it won't help you break through it.
We'll have to neutralize Mycenae's two attacks one at a time.
Yeah!
But a Gold Saint's techniques move at the speed of light.
We have no choice...
We'll just have to heighten our Cosmo to the level of Gold Saints.
Our only hope is to defeat him and move forward!
The heightening of their Cosmo...
It's greater than the last time.
Interesting.
Here I go.
Make our Cosmo...
...stronger!
Take this.
King's Roar!
Rougaken
Rasetsu Seppuujin!
Lionet Burning Fire!
See?
I told you we wouldn't know until we tried.
You defeated my King's Roar?
Excellent.
In that case, try this.
The fangs of the Golden Lion.
What is this even more powerful Cosmo?
Leo Mycenae's ultimate technique!
Burn it into your eyes,
and carve it into every inch of your body!
King's Emblem!
No!
Haruto!
Hakurouken: Denshin Musou!
Haruto!
That clash of Cosmo...
From the House of Leo?
Haruto?
It's over.
You sacrificed yourself to protect your companion?
I told you that we...
wouldn't give up.
Even if one of us goes down,
the other will keep going.
And if we both fall,
those who come after us will keep going...
And as long as that happens,
we win!
You plan to stay true to your will, even at the cost of self-sacrifice?
All that complicated stuff doesn't matter!
Even if we're reduced to crawling across the ground...
No matter how badly we're hurt...
We're fighting to protect those we care for!
So that is the source of their power?
Take this.
Lionet Bomber!
Eden-sama,
you will be a Saint who protects Athena someday.
You won't be able to protect her with such a weak Cosmo.
I'm not done yet.
I'll protect Athena...
Aria!
I'll protect Aria's light!
Mars-sama, your son is growing up strong.
By his own will...
His own power...
Eden-sama, return to the person you were.
Mars-sama...
I... I...
Father...
The world you will create
is not the one I desire.
I...
I will correct your mistake...
As one of Athena's Saints...
I, Orion Eden, will correct your mistake.
And if you still won't wake up...
If you still won't wake up...
I will protect this world,
even if it costs my life!
Landing a blow, even a small one, on a Gold Saint...
Eden-sama...
Your uncertainty is gone?
This moment, when you've found the path
that you must follow...
I have awaited it such a long time!
Wh-What's this?
You may advance, young Bronze Saints.
Mycenae...
I have lost this battle.
What do you mean?
Hurry and go.
There is still a long way.
Mycenae...
Let's go.
The heart that cares for one's comrades...
The power of will, backed by ties to one's comrades...
And eyes fixed straight ahead, on the future.
I have seen the miracle that you created.
As well as what I must do now.
