After First High's overwhelming victory in the Nine School Competition, Ryuga and Tatsuya were on a helicopter pad, on the roof of a skyscraper. Directly 12-o'clock to them was the No-Head Dragon's base. They decided to come here after the tournament and give the No-Heads some retribution. Ryuga had his "Incarnation of Death" garb on, which consisted of a black business suit accompanied by a black shirt and black tie. Literally everything he was wearing was black, all the way to his mask. Tatsuya was standing next to him wearing a black trenchcoat and sunglasses.

Tatsuya: "So, what's the plan?"

Ryuga: "Hmm, smash and grab?"

Tatsuya: "Do we need more information? I thought you had that handled."

Ryuga: "Well, I don't think the actual leader is in there." He pointed towards the window on the side of the building.

Tatsuya: "Doesn't matter. A leader with no subordinates isn't a leader at all."

Ryuga: "Haha, I guess you're right. Usually, with this kind of thing, I just murder all the members..." He took some time to think. "How about this, I'll creep on in there, and you can snipe from here?"

Tatsuya: "I guess that's fine."

Ryuga: "All right, give me at least fifteen minutes to take care of the guards."

Tatsuya: "Good luck."

Ryuga: "Based on the prowess of that Generator back at the competition, I don't need it."

He faced Tatsuya and let himself plummet off the building, towards the road beneath. Tatsuya watched Ryuga disappear mid-air, and a little bit of dust was kicked up from the ground but nothing more. Ryuga waited until a member walked into the door and walked in with him. On the ground floor, there were eleven guards stationed near elevators, stairs, and exits.

Firstly, he went into the control room, where all the cameras and technical devices were monitored. After removing the head of the technician, Ryuga shut down the security cameras for the entire building. Next, he disabled the elevators, causing some members to be trapped inside. Finally, he forcefully sealed the locks for all of the exits and set the fire alarm off. He then dismissed his invisibility and walked out of the room to see members running around and trying to get out.

Ryuga: "Infiltration, complete. Eradication, starting now."

A guard saw him come out of the control room and ran towards him. The guard had a baton in his hand and swung it at Ryuga's head. Ryuga ducked under it and punched the guard in the solar plexus. The guard stumbled back, unable to breathe, and Ryuga kicked the guard's temple, crushing his skull, and killing him instantly.

Ryuga: "One down, ten more."

Four guards swarmed him, but bright orange flames rose up from beneath their feet, incinerating them and setting some of the floor on fire. The other six guards were hesitant to approach Ryuga, so they pulled their guns out. The sound of gunshots rang throughout the building, and the empty shells sprawled out across the floor. The guards looked and saw a figure walk out of the fire, perfectly fine, with a purple glare emanating from its chest.

Guard: "I-It's the Incar-!"

He was swallowed up by the ever-growing blaze.

Ryuga: "I hate that nickname."

Ryuga lifted his arms, and the firestorm consumed the rest of the guards and all of the first floor. He walked through the waves of flame, perfectly unscathed, towards the stairs. When he opened the door to the stairs, he looked up and found that he had a few hundred steps to get to the room that the meeting was being held in.
