Right after the new quests are announced, Billy suggests the use of nuclear weapons
for the neutralization of UMAs although it would end up involving many other people.
While the other members hesitate, Billy continues his words that deny Juiz.
No matter how many times she repeats it, Juiz will never be able to kill God.
With those words, Billy fires his gun at the members of the Roundtable.
The Roundtable room is thrown into confusion at Billy's sudden act of violence.
Just then, a flame engulfs the Roundtable. UMA Burn appears from underground.
Atop its head were Rip and Latla, who introduced themselves as Under.
Rip calls Billy "Boss."
That's right... Billy, the Third Seat of the Roundtable, was the leader of Under.
Under was aiming to plunder the Roundtable and Apocalypse.
As Billy once saved Tatiana from the depths of despair, she is severely hurt by his betrayal.
Turning their backs against the sorrow, Fuko and Andy chase after Billy as he tries to escape.
What gives? This is pretty much a cakewalk.
I expected more from this so-called secret society.
It won't be that easy.
We simply caught them off guard. It won't be long before they come to halt our momentum.
Don't underestimate them.
Didn't think our boss would be the Third Seat in the organization.
This is pretty much our first time meeting, yeah?
We'll cooperate with you. But let me make something clear first.
Killing God isn't our final objective. We want what comes next.
We're here because you said you'd give us that. Don't forget that.
You won't be betraying us now, will you...
Mr. Billy?
That's all fine. We don't operate under some vague motive like justice.
There only is trust derived from our mutual interests.
It's fairer that way, don't you think?
Okay, that makes things much easier.
Swat them away, Burn!
Tatiana...
Come.
I need your ability.
I saved your life. Now return the favor.
You want to return to a normal body, don't you?
Then you, too, are my enemy... Untouchable.
Let's go.
We must not let him escape!
If we don't settle this here, it's all over!
Attention, all Union members! Billy has betrayed us and seized the Roundtable!
We're mounting an operation centered on Undead and Unluck!
We must retrieve the Roundtable at all costs!
Top priority is disabling Burn!
As long as we stop Burn, they can't walk off with the Roundtable!
Nico!
I want you to focus on treating Isshin and Top.
Grant the lab members control of the facility to stop Burn in its tracks!
No choice, then.
Mico, it's up to you. Handle this.
Wait, really, Pappy- I mean, roger, Dr. Nico!
Seriously?
There is a chance they'll steal Artifacts along the way. Shen, Phil, get to the depository.
Yup.
You have my permission to use any Artifact you deem fit to pull off this operation!
Chikara, I hate to ask, but I'd like you to use your power to stop my bleeding.
Can you do that?
Yes! I'll give it my best shot!
And, Tatiana. As for you...
Stand by.
Don't worry.
Just leave it to me, Tatiana.
I'm sure there's some reason behind this.
Mr. Billy is a kind, wonderful person.
You know that better than anyone, right?
Yeah.
Please... go save Mr. Billy.
I will.
Fuko!
Well, Tatiana...
I'm off!
Begin the operation!
All personnel, provide full support for Undead and Unluck!
- Roger! - Roger!
Emergency relocation of all giant UMA cryo-storage units above Burn's current location!
We can only use them for ten minutes!
Designation B understood!
Any longer and the other UMA will wake up!
Plan for usage over the ten-minute mark!
Initiate emergency deployment of anesthetic gas as a backup!
Roger!
Add in the electromagnetic cables, too!
They can buy us some time!
But Pappy, they're heat-sensitive. Even in pre-launch, the terminals-
Dimwit!
Weren't you listening to what was just said?
Listen up! We need to make this look like a capture while we gather seeds of unluck!
Just focus on building a dangerous assortment!
Undead and Unluck will handle the rest!
For now, let's stop Burn and try to talk this out.
Talk it out? Didn't ya just shoot at Billy with no warning?
That was, um, in the moment!
Well, I do have some questions for him.
Rip and Billy don't seem to have the same goal.
If his heart's set on God-slaying, then it'd be more efficient to work with us.
Hard to believe he'd form a whole new organization over a difference in policies.
But there's one thing that's clear as day.
What's that?
He made Tatiana cry.
Let's give him a knuckle sandwich! We can talk after that!
Yeah!
I can see Burn!
Hey, Juiz! Are the seeds prepared?
All complete! Take it away!
Copy that!
So you've come undeterred, have you?
Undead? Unluck?
Unjustice, activate!
Here it comes, Andy!
The same as Juiz? Does Unluck plan to kill herself?
You moron.
Not on my watch!
This is sick! Wicked sick!
Can't say I've ever gotten a smooch while bein' beheaded-till now!
Look! They're kissing again! Which I'm pretty sure means...
Parts Bullet! Head!
There's going to be a huge stroke of unluck heading his way?
Huh? He went inside.
It's on the way...
Heading straight for Andy inside of Burn's stomach...
A stroke of unluck!
Latla!
Electromagnetic cables misfiring? This must be Unluck's doing.
And here's something else for good measure!
Time to freeze up!
Aw-right!
A futile effort.
That might've worked on Burn's Core form, but not against his fully developed body.
It only buys you some time.
That wasn't enough.
There's more on the way.
Courtesy of everyone... a huge stroke of unluck is on its way!
UNBREAKABLE
We're winging this?
Don't worry! It's fine!
We've got our girl Fuko's unluck on our side!
Unbreakable Pile Cannon!
Blast off!
Huh?
See, I told you.
Huh?
Wha?
Unbreakable Pile Cannon!
We stopped Burn! you ain't gettin' away, Billy!
- Yeah! - We did it!
Hell yeah! Suck on that, dimwit!
Wow, awesome! Those two managed to stop Burn?
Guess so. They nailed him too good. Must be a stroke of unluck.
Hey, old-timer, I wanna go join them already!
I doubt you'll be able to withstand any acceleration with your legs still recovering.
Stay here and heal up.
Isshin, stop bein' difficult, ya big dummy!
Hm?
Huh...?
What's the matter?
Where is Ms. Tatiana?
Now, then, this is your payback for making Tatiana cry.
One...
...death for you!
I see.
It hurts.
From observing you, I assumed your sense of pain got dull as well.
But you simply repaired yourself bit by bit.
I'm amazed how you forged it into your current fighting style.
How admirable, Undead.
I knew it. He's using my Undead powers.
Fuko, hand over the katana and the gun. You might kill yourself.
Okay.
What now? Do we help?
He doesn't need any, right?
Let's hang back and see whether or not he's qualified to be our boss.
Th-That's Top's Unstoppable!
It's not as refined as Top's, though.
If you watch calmly, you can tell where he's coming fro-
Even if you see it coming, if you can't block it in time...
Not bad.
However, I know your weakness.
And it's you, Unluck.
M-My legs are moving on their own.
If my vision of justice is to survive, then...
...the inverse would be...
He's toyin' with us.
My body... I can't control it!
I'm sorry, Andy!
Fuko!
Undead...
Unstoppable...
Unjustice...
No doubt about it.
His ability is copying! And it applies to us Union members!
Now, that takes care of our nuisances.
Burn, how long do you plan on napping?
No way! We couldn't pierce the Core?
The Unluck was directed at Mr. Andy, after all.
Damn! We're all out of traps that'll work against Burn!
Boss! Burn is on the move! We can't stop it anymore!
Five minutes until they break out of the base!
What should we do, Boss?
Remain calm!
What happened to Andy and Fuko? Are they safe?
They're safe!
Is that you, Tatiana?
They came falling from above. I have no idea what happened...
...but I've recovered them both!
Thank you, Tatiana!
Tatiana! Your orders were to remain on standby!
I'm sorry, Boss. But...
...I need to talk to Mr. Billy!
Please take me with you!
You got it!
Tatiana... I want you to be honest with me.
Do you still... have feelings for Billy, even now?
I...
The operation hinges on your answer.
Mr. Billy! Why would you betray us?
So long as God and the Rules exist...
...this world will always be unfair.
But, Mr. Billy, I...
Get over yourself.
You... don't matter.
Tatiana, do you still...
...have feelings for Billy, even now?
I do!
Untouchable Area Compulsory Release!
Unjustice should be active!
If she's acting with justice on behalf of the Union, then it should stop the attack...
So why isn't it working?
So that's what it is, Tatiana.
I see... They got me!
The target was Apocalypse!
You wanted to be a copycat Union or something.
Quests don't get started unless ya sit at the Roundtable.
But...
...without this li'l guy, you can't accept any quests or their rewards.
Ain't that right, Billy?
You no-good morons!
What's the matter, Fuko?
Fuko?
I did it!
I've got more years of memories under my belt than any other Artifact!
Enjoy going insane!
Now, while I have the chance...
What? Who is that? I'll just flood your mind, too-
Unfeel! Damn you!
Phil! Pick Fuko up while you're at it!
I'm gonna go after Billy!
Awfully sorry for the wait!
Shen? Is that the Kinto'un cloud?
Wait, you can ride this?
What are you implying by that?
Undead...
Hmm?
I'll let you borrow Apocalypse.
All I need to do is retrieve it before the deadline.
However, we will be securing Ark.
Tell Juiz that we won't let her have it.
Ark? Any idea what that is?
Afraid not.
Very nice. Now things are getting fun!
Juiz, Billy's getting away!
Do we tail him?
No, it's fine. That was enough.
There's an important matter I must discuss with everyone.
I ask that you reconvene.
Roger that.

The flames of betrayal ran off. What was that they believed back on that day?
God is looking down on those at the mercy of an unmerciful destiny.
