As the trio venture through the bustling atmosphere of Sin City, the streets are lined with casinos and clubs.

"Kenzo! Tie up Jochi and let's go eat!" Manya exclaims.

"With what money?" Kenzo replies, reaching into Jochi's pocket and pulling out a rope.

"Keke! Don't worry, I've got it figured out."

"Whatever...I need some booze anyway." Kenzo replies, now tying up Jochi.

Manya and Kenzo enter a nearby club, dragging Jochi along with them. The music shakes the entire building as hundreds of bodies trap them inside.

"Do you have sake!?" Kenzo beckons the bartender, shouting over the music..

The bartender nods.

"Give me three bottles!" he orders.

"I want the fried rice bowl-" Manya chips in before leaving his thought unfinished.

Suddenly, Manya notices a familiar face in the crowd. It's the thief.

"That's him! That's the guy!" Manya shouts, standing up and pointing.

He begins worming his way through the crowd, trying to catch up to him.

"Manya, where are you going!?...whatever. Let me get another bottle please!" Kenzo exclaims.

He has already chugged the first three he ordered.

The thief completely out manoeuvres Manya, using the crowd as a barrier for an easy escape. The thief finally makes it to the door and flings it open, sprinting outside. Hastily, Manya crawls through the crowd trying to catch up. Manya finally makes it to the door and quickly swings it open. In the distance he sees the thief running off. A rain cloud appears above Manya's head. It begins dropping heavy metal balls. Manya allows them to hit him, absorbing the damage and loading it all into his legs.

"Not this time." He whispers, clenching his stick.

He continues, "『 Energy Cannot Be Created Or Destroyed 』: Sound Breaker!!!"

CRACK!

Manya accelerates forwards in a straight line, destroying the sound barrier. As he approaches the thief, he whips his stick across his gut.

BANG!

The thief is sent flying, crashing through building after building. Manya approaches the thief's body and stands over it.

The thief looks around Manya's age. He has deep blue eyes and dark purple hair. His face is absolute perfection, making him look almost doll-like.

Manya removes the baton from his hand.

"I'm gonna beat you black and blue." Manya furiously remarks.

"Woah woah woah. You guys can't fight here." A voice comes from the distance.

A group of men are all carrying a bed, where a man lies.

"I don't know what you guys have going on. But relax, we're all friends here right?" SLOTH of the Seven Deadly Sins - "Big Chill" Elvis.

"I don't know who the hell you are but don't get in my way!!" Manya exclaims.

"Goodness me. In that case....『 Cool As a Cucumber 』"

The air begins to rapidly freeze.

"Wait a moment...I'm...not...don-" Manya whispers.

Manya passes out from the cold.
