My name is Cao Cao.
I'm the descendant of the famous Cao Cao of the Three Kingdoms, it seems.
Were you the ones who took my mother?!
What do you plan to do with her?
Your mother will help us preform an experiment.
Experiment, you say?
But before that, I came to greet Governor-General Azazel and the Red Dragon Emperor.
I wish to exchange blows.
No problem.
Before we begin, we'd like you to return their great leader.
We have some important things to establish with her.
Well, then. Please try and take her from us.

Leonardo, release antimonsters effective against devils.
Annihilation Maker...
Correct. It is a Longinus that can create any monster the user wishes.
So, a power that can destroy the world is in your faction's hands...
No way! That's a huge problem!
Welsh Dragon Balance Breaker!
Seeing as he hasn't sent titan-class creatures to each strategic point,
the user must still be in development.
As expected of the Governor-General.
As you say, he has yet to reach that level.
However, he is very skilled at one thing.
An attack of light?!
Leonardo has the skill to create antimonsters that target his opponent's weaknesses.
Not a problem if the attacks don't land!
We merely have to defeat them before we get hit!
Not all of our team members are here right now.
What should we do? How should we fight?
Think! Think! Think!
What would President do? In a situation like this, she would...
Kiba, can you hear me?!
Yeah.
Make swords that eat light with your power and pass them out!
Roger!
Xenovia, focus on guarding Kunou and Asia!
Release your holy aura and attack any enemies that approach!
Leave it to me!
If it gets dangerous, use that as a shield!
Yes!
Irina! Sorry, but please hold the frontlines with Kiba!
Light isn't a weakness for an angel!
It's not a weakness, but I still take damage.
Fine! I'll try! I'm Lord Michael's number one ace, after all!
There we go.
Asia! Promotion, Bishop!
Yes!
Take this!
Cao Cao, I'll be your opponent.
Here I come!
What a great honor!
Did you mount attacks on the various leaders of each group
so that you could gather data for your antimonsters?!
Correct. Thanks to all of you, we were able to get plenty of data.
Though, it seems you still can't create a creature that can kill a god.
For gods, we have our own hands.
Red Dragon Emperor! We are your opponents!
Whoa. This is the perfect time to use that skill!
Release earthly desires! Booblingual!
What is this?!
All right, lady boobs! Tell me what is in your heart!
After confusing you with our movements, we're going to do a chain attack!
I'm going to attack from the right!
I'm coming straight at you!
Then, before that...!
Not to toot my own horn, but the Booblingual and Dress Break combo is invincible!
He is the worst...
This is the first time I've ever seen such a terrible attack skill.
As expected of the Boob Dragon.
That was an impressive skill against breasts.
It won't work on me though.
Who the hell would use it on a man! So, are you next?
Nice to meet you, family of Gremory.
My allies call me Siegfried.
I thought I saw him somewhere before.
You know him?
This man is a devil-purger.
He was considered a top-class knight by all the Churches,
Chaos Edge Sieg.
What a guy. So he's a traitor exorcist?!
Enough with the introductions.
Now, why don't we go all out?
Kiba!
Shit! Three arms?!
It's frustrating, but he's strong!
Demonic Emperor Sword Gram.
The most powerful of demon swords, it can take on any blade without difficulty.
As well as, Balmung and Nothung.
They are both legendary demon swords as well.
And this arm here is Twice Critical, the Dragon's Hand.
As I thought, a Sacred Gear user.
On top of that, he has yet to show us the power in his swords.
By the way, I haven't even activated my Balance Breaker yet.
So this is the rumored Gremory family, huh?
As expected, Hyodo Issei.
Your team performs highly with your presence.
What are you talking about?
It seems you have not noticed.
Though your physical and demonic power is low overall,
your ability to gather people and delegate tasks far surpasses others.
And there is no mistake. You will likely be the most dangerous of all Red Dragon Emperors.
Cao Cao! What are the motives of the Hero Faction?
Governor-General of fallen angels, our reason is simple.
We want to see how far we can go as humans.
What?!
Devils, dragons, fallen angels, and all the others.
Humans have always been the ones who defeat supernatural existences.
No, humans must be the ones to defeat them.
This is a little challenge for the weak humankind.
I just wanted to see how far I could go as a human among the gods.
While staying human...
What?!
What is that thing?!
Gogmagog?! A destructive weapon created by the ancient gods.
I thought all of them were shut down and sent to the Dimensional Gap.
Why is one here?!
Nice to meet you.
I am Le Fay Pendragon, a witch from Vali's team.
A message from Lord Vali.
"I told you not to get in my way."
That's the message! Cao Cao, now you get punished!
Um...
I'm a fan of the Boob Dragon.
Huh?!
If it's okay with you...
...please shake my hand!
Uh, yeah, thanks...
All right!
Oh, no! My precious Goggy!
No way.
That was an unexpected interruption.
Now, let us continue, family members of the Gremory house!
I was sleeping so comfortably. Jeez...
Boom. Bam. Ka-boom.
Y'all are sho noisy!
Take dish!
Oh, jeez.
There are too many surprises.
Though, I suppose it's perfect for the start of our little festival.
Governor-General Azazel.
Tonight, we will use the unique powers of Kyoto
and their nine-tailed leader in a great experiment at Nijo castle.
Feel free to join our festivities!
What?
Until we meet again.
Everyone!
The space we're in is disappearing!
Put away your weapons!
My mother... Why?!
Hey, what in the world is this?
You told me to take pictures of you, so I did!
Take some proper pictures!
These are precious memories of the school trip!
Yeah. Yeah.
Also, take pictures that make me look more sexy!
I took some good ones, too!
How nice.
Oh, I look really cool here!
Sorry, an accidental shot.
Hey!
Oh, it's me!
This is a good one.
Yes.
Oh, that place.
The coffee there was delicious!
Yeah, it really warmed me up.
--Okay! Let's look at the pictures of the places we visited today!
--We're all going home, no matter what. --Okay! Let's look at the pictures of the places we visited today!
Back to Kuoh Academy, where President is waiting for us.
We mobilized all the firepower we could
and put them on full alert around Nijo castle and Kyoto station.
The Hero Faction has not made any movements yet,
but there have been confirmations of unsettling chi disturbances.
Unsettling chi disturbances?
Kyoto is historically known for being built with onmyoudou and feng shui in mind.
Because of that, there are power spots all over the city.
However, that chi is flowing from those spots toward Nijo castle.
So, what's going to happen?
Right now, we don't really know.
All we know is that it probably isn't anything good.
Well, then. Here's the plan.
The Sitri family will be on standby in the Kyoto area.
Protect this hotel.
Yes!
The Gremory family and Irina will be our offense.
I will have all of you head to Nijo castle.
Yes!
Put saving Princess Yasaka above everything else.
Including Cao Cao, we don't know their full fighting capabilities.
I won't send you in alone.
I've called in a helper who is good at dealing with this kind of thing.
Helper? Who is it?
Well, just keep in mind a monstrous person is coming.
Try to hold your ground until then.
One other thing...
Sorry, but I was only able to prepare two Pheonix Tears.
Two?!
In a situation like this?!
Sorry. This is the best I can do.
I will give one to each group. Use it wisely.
And, Saji.
Yes.
Join the Gremory family.
Huh?
Your Vritra's dragon king form is useful.
Support Issei and the others.
But...
Bring Saji back if he goes out of control, Issei.
Yes!
I'm depending on you.
You caused me so much pain as an enemy during the Sitri game,
so having you as an ally is really reassuring.
Hyodo...
As I said earlier, the devils, angels, fallen angels, and youkai in Kyoto
have created a large-scale encirclement for the Hero Faction.
Leave their supervision to me!
If any bad children try to get out, we'll punish them!
And that's the plan.
After we disperse, and preparations are complete, head to your locations quickly.
I'll be here supervising all the groups.
I can't go with you, so don't any of you die on me.
A school trip doesn't end until you safely get back home.
We will all protect Kyoto with our lives! Got it?!
Yes!
We finally finished!
I cannot believe that members of the Old Satan Faction had snuck in.
President?
My heart feels a little uneasy.
Do you sense an enemy nearby?
That's not it. It's about Issei.
True, there are probably many cute girls that are Issei's type in Kyoto.
I'm worried.
Hey, Issei!
Yes.
What is it?
Oh, there was a molester case in front of the hotel a bit ago.
I happened to be passing by, so I helped subdue the man.
This popped out of his body.
It can't be...
What is it, Ddraig?
That is what jumped out of you in the bullet train.
It was what was in the box.
Wh-Wh-Wh-Wh-What did you say?!
I thought so.
When I examined it, I could feel your aura exuding from it.
Yes. I'm positive.
No, wait. What is this?!
What's wrong?
This potential of yours.
It seems it travelled around Kyoto by jumping from person to person.
All while grabbing breasts along the way.
I see. Your "potential" is the cause of the molester cases that have been happening!
No way...
So, Ddraig. What power does this thing have?
I do not know. All I can tell is that it is powerful...
It seems we'll have to follow-up on all the people who became molesters because of Issei.
Sorry for all the trouble.
She still has something left in her? How terrible.
What's wrong?
I thought about something that isn't very like me.
I wonder what makes someone a hero?
When I was human,
an average person like me thought heroes were something to be envied.
What? You started thinking about a devil like yourself and heroes?
Jeez. Just what do you want to become? What do you want to do?
Of course, I want to become a high-ranking devil and the Harem King!
Just kidding!
Right now, I just want to work hard for President and my friends.
That's good enough. You should just stay you.
That is what will help your friends grow.
I understand! I, Hyodo Issei, will rush forward with my friends!
Red Dragon Emperor!
Kunou?! Why are you here?
I shall go with you!
Weren't you told to wait in the shadows of Kyoto because it's dangerous?
I want to be the one to save Mother!
Please! Take me with you! I'm begging you!
Then, let's go together! We might need your help.
This is...
Looks like we got pulled in again.
Hey, Kiba. Where are you right now?
We're at the Kyoto Imperial Palace.
Rossweisse and Saji are with me. How about you?
I'm with Kunou on a subway platform in Kyoto Station.
So, why don't we meet up at Nijo Castle?
Yeah.
Roger. Were you able to contact Asia and the others?
Leave it to me!
And, Issei.
Since the President isn't here right now, you are our King.
Huh?
I was sure after Togetsukyo Bridge.
We managed to make it out safely because of your quick decisions.
So, please lead us again tonight.
Got it.
Asia? Yeah. Be careful.
It's okay.
The church trio are all together.
Thank goodness.
Welsh Dragon Balance Breaker!
Kunou, we'll definitely save your mother.
So, make sure to stay by my side the entire time.
I'll protect you, Kunou.
Yes, I shall leave things to you.
I was waiting for you, Red Dragon Emperor.
You don't remember me, do you?
Yeah. Sorry.
Well, of course you don't.
To you, I was a small fry that wasn't even worth remembering.
I remember now! The possessor of a Sacred Gear that could control shadows!
That's right! This time, I will show you...
...the true power of a shadow user!
Balance Break!
Well? I look like you, right?
Fighting you last time made me want a set of armor like yours.
And so, I obtained Night Reflection Death Cross.
Now, let us continue our fight from before!
Bring it on!
You can no longer escape!
Red Dragon Emperor!
