The Last Yagyu, Soujirou the Willow-Sword versus Rosclay the Absolute. By eliminating Lucnoca the Winter without getting blood on his own hands, it seemed Rosclay’s victory was certain. But Hiroto the Paradox, with his obsidian eye, still wants to rip out his throat. Amidst a chaos where everyone is seeking to triumph with their respective ideals, a sword of a battle-hungry willow cuts through the “absolute.”

The city quivers in the wake of the destruction wrought by Alus. Taking advantage of the chaos in a bid to reclaim power, Iriolde—the ringleader once exiled by the 29—begins to move. With plots and schemes tangling together, the Sixways Eshibition is thrown into the second great battle. Lucnoca smiles in anticipation of another worthy opponent. Then, the “certain death” that the Psianop kept concealed is revealed to be—!?
