The moment had arrived, and all the women residing in the castle assembled in the Duel arena. Sasha and Konami were granted seats on the upper level alongside Mikoto and Tedashii. Lady Williams stood beside Mikoto in disbelief upon the arrival of the "King." Doku positioned himself in the middle of the arena, wearing protective gear as a precaution against any significant impact.

"LADIES AND BARONETS!! YOURS TRULY, DOKU!!!!!"

As the crowd cheered, Mikoto yawned, and Tedashii clapped even harder with a smile. "I am your host and umpire for this classic battle!" he announced. The two doors on opposite sides of the arena began to open. "And from the side of the oak gate, the lady with a Gladiator spirit who issued the challenge! Please give a warm welcome to... Lady Yuri!" However, the crowd responded with boos and jeers, showing they were against her victory.

"Good luck Yuri! You got this!" Tedashii and Konami said.

"Don't break a leg or two! Hahahaha!!!" Sasha said.

She looked up at the queen, then around all the angered faces, and finally down to the other gate.

"AND FROM THE SIDE OF THE GOLDEN GATE! THE ONE AND ONLY PERSON CAPABLE OF A MIRACLE! HE WILL PROVE HIS LOVE FOR THE QUEEN! THE GOD OF WAR! KING CHEYZAR!!!!!!!"

The crowd already began cheering right before Doku could announce his entrance. Tedashii and Lady Williams clapped sarcastically, but the queen jumped off her seat.

"YOU GOT THIS CHEYMO HONEY!! TEACH HER A LESSON!!"

Yuri did not feel good to do so. It was written all over her face that she wanted to forfeit. But the look on Sanji's face was different. He had the determination to finish her off with everything he had.

"Stand on your ground!" Both Sanji and Yuri came face to face.

"Come on, Sanj. You can call it off...I don't want to."

Sanji laughed. "Worry about yourself, or else you might lose worse than you already will." He said.

"How...How are you this confident? You will lose! Why do you still want to do this?!"

Sanji just walked away without answering her question. And so they both stood 50 meters away from each other. Doku raised his hands in the air and glared at both the fighters.

"Lady Yuri. Are you ready?"

Yuri wiped the tears and shook her head. She then took out her Sai and held her fighting stance.

"King Cheyzar. Are you ready?"

As Sanji smiled at Doku, he suddenly caught the crowd off-guard. Mikoto approached the ring from the stairs, perplexing Yuri and Doku. She was carrying a briefcase, which she then placed next to Sanji.

"This will guarantee your victory." Yuri became infuriated when she kissed him on the cheek.

She returned to the top, and Sanji didn't hesitate to open the case. Many of the ladies cheered louder as they saw his weapon—the Tsugiri of the real Cheymo, the double-sided blade.

"BEGIN!!"

Sanji began the battle by building up spiritas, but it was beyond everyone's expectation. His aura was felt all around the arena. He charged up just like the queen advised him to.

*BEFORE THE BATTLE*

Sanji was swinging his sword out of anger. He was afraid to fight Yuri but had no choice but to back up his dignity. He was king of the castle, but what would he say if he got beaten by a girl in front of the kingdom?
