When she is kidnapped, Haruka uses her power to seek out someone who can help her, fixing upon a blind man amid the crowded streets of Tokyo. Though a seemingly odd choice, Haruka's powers have not led her wrong, as her chosen protector draws a sword from his walking stick and deftly takes out her captors. Knowing she will always be pursued for her gift, Haruka begs the mysterious swordsman to keep her safe... "until death do us part." less

Officer Genda's suspicions that Mamoru is involved in the Haruka Tooyama case are confirmed when he confronts the blind man in the park on the night of the operation. Genda manages to hold his own against the master swordsman, but Mamoru isn't of a mind to show his cards to the police and makes a quick getaway. Despite the officer's interference, the mission is a success-whispered, fearful rumors of the Tokyo swordsman are beginning to spread. Who will be drawn out to test Mamoru next?!

Caught in Wiseman's trap, besieged on all sides by snipers and drug-crazed attackers, Mamoru is saved only by the arrival of Haruka and a stroke of good fortune. Frustrated by his own helplessness, Mamoru abandons the Element Network to further hone his skills. He can't rely on luck alone if he wants to survive his next encounter with Wiseman...

In the tunnels of the Kakuhoukai's secret base, Mamoru chooses to challenge Wiseman to a duel on the criminal mastermind's own turf! Mamoru realizes that his enemy has the advantage of numbers and weaponry and will stage a coordinated attack that Mamoru has no hope of surviving - alone, that is. Haruka's guidance will be critical to her protector's survival. Gathering her courage, Haruka rallies the resources she has on hand and leaps into the fray!

Through an audience with the leader of the Element Network, Haruka learns more about Mamoru's past--how his aspirations to master all forms of combat led him to a military training facility in the U.S. and from there to service with the Element Network. It was on a mission to stop TPC, a criminal group responsible for abducting children in Chechnya, that Mamoru first encountered the hitman Jesus...and lost his eyesight...

As their conflict with the Trumps reaches its conclusion, Mamoru again proves himself to be a master tactician. Haruka feels like she's not worthy to stand beside such a capable defender, especially after what he said the last time they spoke...

Farewell, Genda...Mamoru condemns criminals regardless of intent. Genda, despite being on the police force, excuses the unlawful. These two men have clashed ever since they first met, which may have been...inevitable. Then again, so might have been this outcome...

Mamoru, teaming up with his old nemesis Wiseman, leads the Black Unit into Duhana in a plot to assassinate "Mr. Darkside"-Zashid Turus, secret ruler of Galboa and Duhana. At the same time, Haruka steers her new team of elite fighters from the Element Network to Duhana in order to beat Mamoru to his target! But just what is Zashid Turus's ultimate goal...and how does it involve Haruka?! The greatest battle begins to unfold!

The battle has begun against Zashid Turus, the most deadly foe in the world, and though Mamoru has one plan up his sleeve, he may be heading toward possible death...A superhuman demon of war versus a blind demon of the blade... When two monsters collide, who will cross the line of death!?
