Zola has been defeated while Marumaro and Saber Tiger free Kluke, Phoenix, Bouquet, and Hippopotamus. Shu and Jiro have Blue Dragon and Minotaur attack Nene. Nene combines the Chimera clones to form one large Chimera. Meanwhile, General Logi has dispatched his troops which will attack when Schneider and Andropov receive the command from General Logi. Nene uses Chimera's Dark Symphony attack which weakens his opponents. When Shu and Blue Dragon's attacks are countered by Chimera's attack, Shu falls unconscious. In a dream sequence, he encounters Lt. Dragnov and Homeron. Marumaro and Kluke are defeated as Jiro has Minotaur aim for the device on Chimera's forehead. Shu rises from his boulder grave for another bout with Nene. Assisting Jiro and Minotaur in attacking the crystal on Chimera's forehead, Shu and Blue Dragon learn that the crystal enabled Chimera to alter his elements. The limiter is unleashed as Nene and Deathroy merge with Chimera to form an amalgam of all three of them. With Jiro defeated, Shu uses every ounce of his power and manages to destroy Nene as Deathroy is shown lying on the ground. With news of Nene's defeat, General Logi gives the command and has Schneider take over Castle Des La Teste while Andropov attacks some Gran Kingdom airships. This is General Logi's act of his secession from Gran Kingdom which he announces.

During their search for Jiro, Shu runs across news of a small war about to happen between a Rosekstan sub fleet led by Captain Varenko and a small band of resistance led by Captain Crester (one of the surviving members of Grand Kingdom). The party continues forward anyway hoping not to get found, leading to the combination of Saber Tiger and Hippopotamus with the 'stealth mode'. During but a few moments, Crester's band of resistance were eliminated. It was then suddenly Micheal appears before Crester and grant him the power to call his own Wyvern-like shadow allowing him to devastate General Logi's sub fleet. Having found out that the shadow that Crester wields is different from the normal Shadows and the Artificial Shadows used by Grand Kingdom, Shu's party steps in to defeat Crester. After defeating Saber Tiger and Hippopotamus, Crester faces off against Shu and Blue Dragon. After Crester is defeated, Shu, Bouquet, and Marumaro learn about the 'Dragon scales' Mikhail handed out which can grant miraculous powers to the user. They then overhear one of the Rosekstan soldiers tell Captain Varenko that they lost contact with General Logi.
