39F - Hell Train: The Name Hunt Station

    Season 2: Ch. 198 (Chapter 277) 

Still aiming to board the Hell Train, Team Nobic (Nobic, Ran, Dan, Sia Sia, and Beta) is seen making their way across floating platforms towards the 39th Floor's Name Hunt Station, which is guarded by groups of bear-men. Beta being transported within Sia Sia's Lighthouse since he's not a true Regular. As they defeat the bear-men, Ran tries to kick them awake wanting to know why they're attacking Team Nobic, and why the names of each Team Nobic member is being announced by the station, but gets no answer. Ran figures that they should turn around and try a different train station due to Name Hunt Station sounding like too much of a hassle, but the path back has already been destroyed by Ran due to his dislike of the other noisy Regulars trying to make it to Name Hunt Station. Thus, their only path is forward, which Ran leads the way fighting through more bear-men guards.

Meanwhile at Name Hunt Station, Team Shibisu (Shibisu, Endorsi, Anaak, Hatz, and Lauroe) watches Team Nobic's arrival from an apartment; figuring that Ran's wasting all his strength before having to take on the dangerous station. They discuss if it's about time for them to start searching for Kaiser to take the latter's name, but they decide to wait it out under the belief that Kaiser will come to them, and Endorsi's only interested in taking the name of someone who's coming on the train (implied to be Bam). At another location of the station, a large D-rank Regular named Hesse is seen being informed by his mohawk-haired subordinate of Team Nobic's arrival; including Ran of the Great Khun Family. The mention of a Great Family member interests Hesse into wanting to hunt for Ran's name.

At that same time aboard the Hell Train, Bam and his companions move on to the next room after completing the train's 38th Floor test where they had to defeat its Gray Guardian. The watching female White-clone taking note of how Bam appears to still be perfectly okay despite her belief that he wouldn't be able to handle the billion soul-power she gave him. She's left wondering if its thanks to the Thorn helping him control the souls, or if there's something special about Bam himself. Meanwhile over at Team Rachel, White's seen completing the 38th Floor test by killing the test guardian for them so that they can continue riding the train up to the 39th Floor. Despite Rachel thanking him, White makes it clear that he's only cooperating for now until he finds his last piece (it's implied that the last piece, Albelda, combined with the female White-clone). White desires to go around the Hell Train to kill the other remaining Regulars, but Rachel asks for him to be patient as she has a plan.

Back to Bam and company, Yuri and Evan gather Bam's group for a meeting regarding the journey to the 43rd Floor's Floor of Death. Along with Yuri announcing that herself and Evan will be joining them, Khun makes it clear to everyone that Bam needs to go there in order to chase after Rachel, which Khun and Rak will be supporting him. Thus, everyone's given a choice to either take on the Floor of Death, or stay on the Hell Train. Some of Team Sweet-and-Sour is interested in going while the pillow-girl of Team Bero desires to go. The female White-clone reminds them that she can't leave the Hell Train due to Roen's sealing spell while the Sachi/Boro duo agree to go knowing that they still need to defeat White, who they know is traveling with Rachel.

Once it's decided who will be joining Bam to take on the Floor of Death, Yuri announces what they must do to prove to her that Bam and company are ready. The goal being that Bam and company must steal away Kaiser's name at the upcoming Name Hunt Station. Sachi takes note of Kaiser knowing that the latter's one of the top-3 D-rankers like him. Thus, Sachi and Evan explain how Kaiser's a powerful D-rank warlord Regular who's been ruling over Name Hunt Station for the past 1000 years, and is notorious for stealing the names of many who take on the station. Khun asks how the "name-stealing" works, which Sachi answers that winners of duels steal away the names of the losers. The winners basically gaining ownership of everything that the loser owns. Thus, forcing the loser to be the winner's subordinate. Overall, Evan announces that the Hell Train will be docked at Name Hunt Station for two days. Thus, those two days will be the time limit for Bam and company to steal away Kaiser's name.

Following the meeting, Bam, Khun and Rak rest up in a Hell Train bedroom since there's still a few days before the train arrives at Name Hunt Station. Bam can't help but think over how it feels like he's forgotten something important. Shortly after, Bam realizes that he was supposed to return to the Hell Train's Rice Pot to continue with his revolution. Meanwhile at the Rice Pot, the waiting God of Guardians is seen getting irritated that Bam hasn't returned yet.

Back to Name Hunt Station, Team Nobic is seen having fought their way through the bear-men guards to the entrance of Name Hunt Station. At said entrance, they're greeted by Hesse, who orders Ran to hand over his name.

    Season 2: Ch. 199 (Chapter 278) 

With a few days to spare before the Hell Train arrives at the 39th Floor's Name Hunt Station, Bam departs from the resting room that he was sharing with Khun and Rak in order to return to the Rice Pot. Khun worries that there won't be enough time for Bam to accomplish anything before they arrive at the station, but Bam feels that he can pull it off, and that he needs to keep his promise to the God of Guardians. Thus, Bam heads off on his own.

Meanwhile at the entrance of Name Hunt Station, Hesse blocks Team Nobic from entering. Ran immediately attacks Hesse due to not liking being treated as a "kid" by the latter, which Hesse catches on that Ran's speciality is electricity. Hesse reveals his speciality by transforming into a dirt-man that can withstand the power of electricity, and introduces himself as one of the Ten Bosses of Name Hunt Station. The bosses being those at Name Hunt Station who have stolen away the most names, and Kaiser serving as the strongest boss that rules over the Ten Bosses. The announcement confuses Ran since Team Nobic doesn't know the rules of the station. Their team's information Light-Bearer, Sia Sia, being on strike until she's properly paid. As a result, Hesse orders his mohawk subordinate, Chigrinsky, to explain the rules.

Chigrinsky's explanation is similar to what Sachi and Evan explained to Bam's group while adding that those who lose their name from losing a duel become "Unnamed," which are people who become trapped on Name Hunt Station, and are forced to serve as subordinates for the "Named." In addition, the station is made up of three islands. 1) A large island that consists of Kaiser's home chamber known as the Festival Field along with an apartment complex for the "Named." 2) A smaller island that consists of an apartment complex for the "Unnamed." 3) A tiny station entrance island where Team Nobic are currently. Chigrinsky also points out that Kaiser only ever appears whenever the Hell Train arrives at the station.

With the explanation over, Hesse remains determined to take Ran's name since he's the one station boss who still doesn't have a stolen name of a Great Family member. The whole idea of name-stealing angers Ran since he doesn't see any satisfaction in living out life in someone else's name, which causes Ran to create his lighting pill to self boost, and calls Hesse pathetic for not caring about his own name. The duel between Ran and Hesse resumes with Ran sending a barrage of lighting attacks at Hesse. However, Hesse remains undamaged since his dirt body absorbs electricity. Team Nobic catches on that Hesse's aiming to prolong the battle by holding out against all of Ran's attacks until the latter tires himself out. Sia Sia questions if they should help out, but Nobic figures that they won't be needed as Ran's been training non-stop ever since he lost to Moontari during their Train City duel.

Seeing that his regular attacks aren't damaging dirt-man Hesse, Ran stops his assault, and realizes that he's found the perfect opponent to test out his new skill on. Ran gathers his electrical shinsu, and explains how he's come up with a theory where he combines many electrical Bangs into one giant one. After combining the Bangs, Ran holds the large electrical Bang over his head, which is known as his Mascheny-Style Shinsu Manipulation Skill: Grand Electrica Pearl. Ran figures that Hesse must have a limit as to how much electricity his dirt-body can hold, which results in Ran throwing his Grand Electrical Pearl Bang as a spear-like attack at the dirt-man. Hesse's struck by Ran's Mascheny-Style Lighting Spear: Grand Espada De La Luz attack, and sure enough, Hesse's unable to absorb it due to the lightning spear's massive size. The result is Hesse's death due to his body disintegrating.

Within Name Hunt Station, everyone takes notice of Team Nobic after witnessing Ran kill one of the Ten Bosses. Team Shibisu noting that things have gotten interesting after seeing that Ran's gotten stronger. Meanwhile within Kaiser's chamber known as the Grand Gallery, Kaiser's seen being informed by a blonde-haired subordinate about Team Nobic's arrival, and Hesse's defeat to Ran of the Great Khun Family. Kaiser's left with the question as to how they should go about handling this situation.

    Season 2: Ch. 200 (Chapter 279) 

Kaiser's blonde-haired subordinate, Shadow Girl Alphine of the Ten Bosses, awaits Kaiser's answer as to what they should do about Team Nobic. In return, Kaiser answers that they should just relax since they can't be touched when the whole station is theirs. Thus, the only thing to worry about is the Hell Train when it arrives in two days.

At that same time on the Hell Train, Bam returns to the Rice Pot. He apologizes to the God of Guardians for taking so long due to recent events, but also informs the latter that he only has two days to work with. As a result, the God of Guardians quickly throws Bam back into the Rice Pot to resume the revolution. Within the Rice Pot, the God of Guardians can sense that something about Bam is different, which Bam reveals how he obtained a terrifying power from many souls who unfairly died. The God of Guardians notes that Bam remains perfectly fine despite the power-up as if he's capable of holding infinite power, which only other Irregulars and Jahad and his ten Great Family leaders are capable of pulling off. Bam replies that he never thought of himself as special, which the God of Guardians takes as a sign that Bam still doesn't know much about himself. Thus, the God of Guardians states that Bam needs to realize how important he is for the Tower in order to change what the kids ruined (implied to be Jahad and his followers).

The Rice Pot activates to resume Bam's revolution, which sends his consciousness back into his mind. Bam is back in front of the blue-skinned being known as the Power that resides within his mind. The Power remains next to the large glowing sphere that Bam relied on for strength earlier, which the Power scolds Bam for trying to get rid of it in favor of using the gold sphere. However, the Power states that it got to stay thanks to the arrival of the vengeful souls that Bam recently absorbed. The Power notes how Bam pulled off devouring all the souls, which surprises Bam as he looks at the gold sphere. The sphere appears to be glowing even stronger thanks to the power increase from absorbing the souls.

Meanwhile at Name Hunt Station, Chigrinsky is seen acting as a guide for Team Nobic. Chigrinsky explains how tiny platforms act as transports around the Name Hunt Station islands, and can only be controlled by Light-Bearers, such as himself. Thus, Chigrinsky transports Team Nobic over to the "Unnamed" apartment island. Chigrinsky explains how those who lost their names are stuck on the station until they've taken another name, which the Hell Train's arrival bringing a bunch of newcomers is usually the best time to strike. In addition, Chigrinsky explains the process to steal someone's name, which a "Name Stealing" announcement begins after one places their hand on the back of the person their name-stealing from, and after 10 seconds, the name is stolen. Thus, a master-and-servant contract is formed. However, servants can also name-steal, which shows that Name Hunt Station works like a pyramid scheme. Upon arriving at the "Unnamed" island, Team Nobic is suddenly attacked by a few Regulars living there, which Nobic and Dan have to do the work due to Ran being exhausted from using his lightning pill against Hesse.

Sia Sia's and Chigrinsky's Lighthouses locate the attacking Regulars, which Nobic and Dan dispose of them. The killed Regulars turn out to be those who lost their name trying to get back names in desperation. Afterwards, Chigrinsky leads Team Nobic into the "Unnamed" lodging to get them a room and rest up. Within their room, Chigrinsky brings them drinks along with explaining how they're safe since the rules forbid fighting within the apartment unless you're one of the Ten Bosses. Sia Sia asks about the Ten Bosses, which Chigrinsky explains how if you're able to gather the names of the lesser nine bosses, you will be allowed to fight the main boss, Kaiser, at the station's festival. However, such a case has never happened the past 1000 years. Despite that, Chigrinsky points out that another team that recently arrived (Team Shibisu) is also going after Kaiser, and has already defeated three of the Ten Bosses. Thus, with Hesse gone, there's only six station bosses left. Team Nobic remain disinterested in dealing with Name Hunt Station, which Chigrinsky warns them that people will come after them since they have Hesse's name.

Shortly after, Team Nobic all end up falling unconscious as it turns out that Chigrinsky had spiked their drinks. Chigrinsky lied about the lodging information where fighting is actually allowed within the rooms. Only fighting in the hallways is forbidden. Feeling that he's won, Chigrinsky states that his goal is to become one of the Ten Bosses, and that he had decided to make Team Nobic his servants. Placing his hand on the back of the unconscious Sia Sia, the ten second name-stealing process begins. However, Team Shibisu turns out to also be at the "Unnamed" lodging. They come to Team Nobic's rescue, which Chigrinsky suddenly gets cut in half and killed off by Hatz before the name-stealing is complete.

    Season 2: Ch. 201 (Chapter 280) 

When Team Nobic awakens, they're greeted by the members of their Team Shibisu saviors within their "Unnamed" lodging room. Team Nobic helps clean up Chigrinsky's corpse, which the two teams then discuss what's currently going on. Like Chigrinsky beforehand, Shibisu warns Team Nobic that they need to be careful given that they've stolen one of the names of the Ten Bosses, but also gets the gist that Team Nobic's aiming to board the Hell Train. In return, Nobic asks why Team Shibisu's interested in Name Hunt Station, which Shibisu reveals that they got themselves involved in something complicated regarding their Jahad Princess.

Meanwhile, Endorsi's seen with a sleeping Lauroe fighting a group of Regulars on Name Hunt Station who all share the same glasses and clothing look. The lookalike Regulars all turn out to be servants of Marte, an octopus-woman who's one of the station's Ten Bosses that appears to confront the Jahad Princess. Endorsi calls out Marte for the Ten Bosses mechanic as if the station's pretending to be a lesser version of the Ten Great Families, which Endorsi resumes battling the lookalike servants in order to reach Marte.

Back at the "Unnamed" lodging, Shibisu explains his team's overall problem to Team Nobic, which revolves around their Fake Jahad Princess, Anaak. That ever since the Ranker assassin, Lo Po Bia Ren, failed to assassinate Anaak on the Floor of Tests, the Lo Po Bia Family have set their sights on Team Shibisu to kill Anaak. In addition, since the Jahad Princesses are in a competition for one Jahad Princess to come out on top, the Lo Po Bia Family sees the situation as an opportunity to raise up their twin Jahad Princesses, Lo Po Bia Lilial Jahad and Lo Po Bia Shilial Jahad. The twins together make up the final top D-rankers alongside Sachi and Kaiser. Shibisu also points out how given that the Lo Po Bia Family knows that Endorsi's climbing the Tower alongside Anaak, they see this as a chance to also disrupt Endorsi's Tower climb to lessen the Jahad Princess competition. Continuing his explanation, Shibisu reveals that Lilial one day came before Endorsi to propose a game. The game being that if Endorsi manages to steal Kaiser's name, the Lo Po Bia Family will stop hunting Anaak, and even axe off their assassin, Ren. Endorsi ended up agreeing on the bet despite Anaak having warned her that it's an obvious trap, which Shibisu also reveals that they discovered the station's "secret."

Back to Endorsi, Marte of the Ten Bosses is all that remains after all her servants were disposed of. Endorsi calls out Marte over how she knows about the station's "secret." That Name Hunt Station is actually a place that Jahad and the Great Families have set up as a Regular disposal facility to get rid of people they don't like. The plan being that the Families bait people with rewards if they manage to take Kaiser's name, but since it's next to impossible to reach Kaiser, the disliked Regulars end up losing their names and get trapped on Name Hunt Station. Endorsi then calls out the station's Ten Bosses for just being the filthy minions doing the Great Families' dirty work in return for money, which angers Marte into attacking. Throwing the sleeping Lauroe as a distraction, Endorsi manages to stab Marte's neck from behind. Marte attempts to bind Endorsi with her octopus tentacles in order to begin the name-stealing process. However, Endorsi relies on 10% power of her Bong Bong fairy that she won at the Workshop Battle to kill Marte with a blast of shinsu. With only five of the Ten Bosses now remaining, Endorsi taunts that even if Marte went through with the name-stealing, she wouldn't have had a name to give her.

Returning to the "Unnamed" lodge, Nobic and his team now get the gist of what's going on after Shibisu gets done explaining the station's "secret" to them, and that Team Shibisu is after Kaiser's name due to the Jahad Princess bet between Endorsi and Lilial. However, Shibisu points out the problem that several of the last Ten Bosses are strong, and that they have nothing to go on regarding Kaiser other than his theory that 1000 years ago, someone with a clear purpose had set up the monster known as Kaiser on Name Hunt Station. Shibisu then reveals that when Endorsi arrived at Name Hunt Station, they were caught off-guard by Kaiser suddenly inviting Endorsi to its residence for a name-stealing duel. Endorsi agreed to it, and they ended up dueling. However, Endorsi ended up losing her name to Kaiser. Thus, Endorsi is now nameless and trapped on the station.

Meanwhile at the location Marte was killed, Endorsi's seen resting on Lauroe. She looks up at the sky wondering when Bam will arrive.

On the Hell Train, Khun's seen with Rak in their resting room. With only the night remaining before they arrive at the station, Khun spends the time putting supplies into his Lighthouse for the Name Hunt Station mission. Khun thinks over how Bam's been acting different lately, and wonders if it's related to the "revolution" that the God of Guardians has been putting him through, and if he should have put a stop to it. Eventually, Bam returns to their resting room. Bam informs them that nothing major happened at the Rice Pot, and that he's just tired. Thus, he heads off to bed as he needs to be ready for the mission to steal Kaiser's name.

    Season 2: Ch. 202 (Chapter 281) 

As the Bam/Khun/Rak trio sleep in their Hell Train resting room, Bam is shown to not be able to get any sleep. He spends the time thinking over what the Power within him said about how the billion souls were devoured.

The next day, Bam and the Regulars set to join the Name Hunt Station mission in order to journey to the 43rd Floor of Death gather in front of Yuri and Evan. Along with the Bam/Khun/Rak trio is Hwaryun, Sachi, Boro, Danhwa, and the pillow-girl from Team Bero. Yuri notes how few people there are, which Khun informs her that Blarode and Quaetro left with the White Heavenly Mirror that has Buelsar and Angel stored with it; heavily implied to be making a new team with them. In addition, Bero has decided to stay on the Hell Train with the female White-clone to act as the latter's protector. Khun also notes that Team Sweet-and-Sour seems to have another goal in mind as Wangnan is seen nearby holding a meeting with Akraptor, Ehwa, Prince, and Miseng.

Wangnan makes it clear to his teammates that instead of going to the 43rd Floor of Death, he's decided for Sweet-and-Sour to put chasing after Cassano on the Hell Train first in order to finally wake-up Horyang from his coma. Wangnan assures his team that he has a plan, and that they won't have to worry about going to the Floor of Death. However, Wangnan also thinks to himself that he wants to get the Cassano quest done with before Hwaryun's warning comes true that one of his teammates is going to die the longer he stays on the Hell Train. Wangnan then asks for Ehwa to go with Viole. The reason being that he believes that Viole's journey will need the help of Ehwa and her powerful Yeon flames on the Floor of Death.

With the meeting over, Wangnan approaches the Bam/Khun/Rak trio, and informs them of his decision to remain on the Hell Train in order to hunt down Cassano. Wangnan explains his plan that he will act as the bait to bring White and Team Rachel out of hiding knowing that White will be hungry to eat some souls, which the only objective will be to single out Cassano, and trap him. Khun admits its a sound plan, but that they should work together on it. However, Wangnan desires to figure it out himself as he feels like he's been a burden to Bam's group up to this point, and doesn't feel that he's ready for the Floor of Death anyway. In return, Bam agrees to it not wanting to take away what Wangnan wants as someone who also has something to protect, and that overall, Bam's also worried about Horyang. Wangnan thanks Bam for understanding as he heads off into the Hell Train with Akraptor, Prince and Miseng. Khun asks if Bam's truly okay with this, which Bam admits he is as the group for the 43rd Floor of Death is already big enough. Since Ehwa was left with Bam, she asks if Bam truly isn't worried that something might happen to Team Sweet-and-Sour. However, Bam reminds her that just like himself, Wangnan's needs to take responsibility of his own strength.

With Poro Poe acting as the new Train Conductor due to Pedro's death, he provides the announcement that the Hell Train has arrived at Name Hunt Station, which the floating stairs between the station and train appear. Bam's station team gathers at the train's side-entrance with Yuri, which she reminds Bam's team that they have until the Hell Train needs to depart again to go out and steal Kaiser's name. As Bam and Khun look out the entrance at Name Hunt Station, Khun asks Bam why he let Wangnan go when putting the latter in danger is out-of-character for Bam. Khun asks if this is related to his "revolution" training, which causes Bam to explain what happened in the Rice Pot.

The story flashes back to Bam within the Rice Pot talking to the Power within his mind. Bam looks at the giant sphere of light near the Power that devoured the billion souls, which said souls are seen trying to crawl out of it, and are stating their desperation to Bam that he needs to kill Hoaqin for their revenge. This leaves Bam stumped as to what his own strength actually is, which the Power reveals that Bam's power is the ability to devour everything. The ability to absorb anything into the giant ball of light, even the resentment of others. The Power explains how Bam is the perfect monster to rule over the Tower as a tyrant as his ability to absorb anything breaks all its rules. The Power then calls out Bam that despite having such strength that can make him the ruler of the Tower, Bam only chooses to waste it by just protecting his friends. Thus, the Power makes it clear what Bam's issue is. That Bam is biased towards his friends while stomping on the unchosen non-friends like a tyrant. Thus, the Power states that the justice Bam dreams of is something he doesn't have. Bam takes this to heart, and breaks out of the "revolution" himself, which surprises the God of Guardians.

Back in the present, Khun's surprised by the story, but gets the gist that Bam's strength is absorbing the skills of others. Bam admits that he's finally started to realize that he's been taking his own power for granted having not used it for anything except to protect his friends. Thus, Bam's decided that it's time to go out and learn more about himself, and the power he wields, which he believes that the Floor of Death will provide him some answers. Bam's station team then sets out down the floating stairs to reach Name Hunt Station. Yuri saying some final words making it clear that she doesn't want to see Bam go to the Floor of Death. However, Bam assures her that he will return with Kaiser's name. The station announcement is then made for everyone to hear regarding the arrival of Rak, Khun, Boro, Sachi, Ehwa, Danhwa, and Phonsekal Iruroe (the pillow-girl turns out to be from the same family as Lauroe). Hwaryun's also with them, but goes unnamed possibly due to being a Guide. The final name announced is Bam, which the station announces him as the Slayer Candidate, Jyu Viole Grace.

Within its Name Hunt Station chamber, Kaiser's caught off-guard as to why Viole's come to the station. Within the chamber is Shilial and Lilial sitting with Kaiser, which makes it clear that Kaiser has teamed up with the twin Lo Po Bia Jahad Princesses against Endorsi. The twins take note of the powerful team that arrived off the Hell Train, which they figure that things are about to get interesting.

    Season 2: Ch. 203 (Chapter 282) 

Getting off the Hell Train floating stairwell, Bam's group finds themselves on a path of floating blocks guarded by bear-men similar to how Team Nobic had to enter Name Hunt Station. Bam takes note of how the station mentioned his Slayer Candidate name, which Khun agrees is odd given that the Tower's system changed Jyu Viole Grace back to 25th Bam following the Workshop Battle. Using his vine mace to trap the bear-men in thorn vines, Sachi overhears their conversation, and figures the only possibility is that a Regular on Name Hunt Station knows about Bam's Slayer Candidate status.

Meanwhile within the "Unnamed" lodge, Sia Sia's hyped to get Team Nobic moving now that Viole's arrived. Elsewhere at the "Unnamed" lodge, Anaak's seen having left a trail of bodies fighting her way into its studio, which is the room where a station Regular announces the names of newcomers to the station. Anaak's seen now currently holding the announcer Regular hostage, which he remains confused as to why he announced the 25th Bam name that he sees on his Pocket as Jyu Viole Grace. In return, Anaak informs him that its okay since Jyu Viole Grace is Bam's second name. Anaak then orders her hostage announcer to announce to the station that FUG's Slayer Candidate has come to free the station from Kaiser, and that all the no-name Regulars should meet up with Viole to start the revolution.

Back to Bam's group, Bam, Khun, Sachi, and Rak using his Mad Shocker spear, clear the way through the bear-men guards in order to reach the entrance of Name Hunt Station. During the journey, Khun provides a rundown of how the station's pyramid tree works with Kaiser at the top followed by the Ten Bosses, the "Named," and then the "Unnamed." The "Unnamed" being those that are trapped on the station. Just like Team Shibisu, Khun notes that they will need to gather all the names of the Ten Bosses in order to challenge Kaiser. Once Bam's group arrives at the entrance to Name Hunt Station, they're greated by Sia Sia, which Khun goes through with paying her through a Pocket money transfer. With Sia Sia acting as their transportation platform guide taking them to the station's "Unnamed" island, she informs the group about Endorsi losing her name in a duel against Kaiser, and that Team Shibisu has been fighting on the station ever since to try to reclaim it. Sia Sia also warns that despite Endorsi losing the duel, she escaped using her Bong Bong fairy before Kaiser could give her any orders. Thus, Endorsi's still free for now, but she could lose her status as a Jahad Princess if word gets out to the Jahad Family that Endorsi lost her name.

Sia Sia then explains that Team Nobic has decided to help Team Shibisu with their problem since the latter saved their butts against Chigrinsky. As a result, she pulls out a ponytail wig from her Lighthouse, and asks for Bam to appear as Viole again for a brief time. She forces the wig onto him, and sure enough, Bam's now wearing a wig that makes him look like his long-haired Viole appearance again, which Bam's clearly uncomfortable with. Khun gets pissed off ordering Sia Sia to explain what's going on, but before she's able to, Bam and company start to notice a group of station Regulars appearing before them. They all bow before Bam claiming that the announcement was true that Viole has come to free the station, much to the confusion of Bam's group.

The story flashes back to two days ago in the "Unnamed" lodge where Shibisu explains his team's plan to Team Nobic. Shibisu goes over how the only way to challenge Kaiser is to obtain the names of the Ten Bosses, and then request a duel with Kaiser at the Grand Gallery chamber during the station's festival that takes place right before the Hell Train leaves. Shibisu explains that his team's remained in hiding to keep the nameless Endorsi safe as they go around defeating the Bosses. However, he points out the problem that the last five Bosses have gone into hiding. Shibisu pointing out that this is why Kaiser's remaining untouched for 1000 years, because the Bosses just go into hiding until the festival passes by. As a result, Shibisu states that he's come up with an idea by using one particular name arriving on the Hell Train as bait to bring the remaining Bosses out of hiding. A name that's more special and incredible than any Regular. Nobic gets that Shibisu's referring to "Jyu Viole Grace."

Dan points out a flaw in the plan that Viole's name might just make the remaining Bosses hide even deeper, which Shibisu states that there's more to his plan than just bait. Shibisu reminds Team Nobic of how the Name Hunt Station's pyramid system has left the no-names at the bottom to suffer under those above to the point of making them feel hopeless. Thus, the plan is to give them hope by making it seem like Viole has arrived as their savior that will tear down the station. Shibisu states to Team Nobic that their true goal using Viole's name as bait isn't to just go after the Ten Bosses, but to go bigger by threatening the very existence of Name Hunt Station. It's at this point that the announcer being threatened by Anaak makes the announcement about Viole having come to end Kaiser's rule, and free everyone from the station, which many of the "Unnamed" start leaving the lodge to join up with Viole. Back to Shibisu, he states to Team Nobic that a rebellion starting up around Viole that could tear apart the station can't be left unchecked. Thus, it will force Kaiser and the five remaining Bosses to come out and catch Viole.

Returning to the present, all the no-name Regulars that have arrived before Viole are now loyally bowing before their savior; begging the Slayer Candidate to free them and kill Kaiser. The watching Khun realizes that the arrival of the no-names must be Shibisu's doing.

At that same time in the Grand Gallery chamber, Kaiser's informed by Alphine about Viole starting up a rebellion with the station's "Unnamed" Regulars. The watching Shilial and Lilial admitting that Viole's a smart one by winning over the no-names. Kaiser remains confused as to why FUG's Slayer Candidate would come to Name Hunt Station to start a rebellion, and concludes that there's someone else behind-the-scenes controlling Viole's actions. As a result, Kaiser gives the order to Alphine to send word to the other four remaining Bosses to not get provoked by Viole, and stay in hiding. In addition, Kaiser gets moving; stating that it will deal with Viole itself. Meanwhile, three of the Ten Bosses, Yukan the Toxic Waste Human, Lulu of the Underwater Da'an Clan, and Variel Vani the Key Man, are seen in their hiding places, and accept the order to stay in hiding until the festival passes. However, the last of the remaining Bosses, Arie Inieta the Genius Swordsman, refuses the order as he's itching for a fight. Thus, he exits out of his hiding place in order to fight the station newcomers.

    Season 2: Ch. 204 (Chapter 283) 

On the "Unnamed" island, Bam's group is left all confused by the sight of many no-name Regulars having come before them; all wishing to join up with Viole's rebellion in order to escape Name Hunt Station. Sia Sia then takes command by advising the no-names to let Viole rest for his eventual duel with Kaiser, and to instead follow under Viole's "Four Lords." Sia Sia naming Sachi Faker the Cruel Wizard, Ehwa the Terrifying Flame Human, Hwaryun the Precise Human GPS, and Rak Wraithraiser the Banana Farm Monster as the Four Lords. The no-names all gather around Viole's companions and they head off elsewhere, which leaves Bam and Khun alone with Sia Sia. A pissed off Khun then confronts Sia Sia about the stunt. In return, Sia Sia explains that she's just going along with Shibisu's plan that revolves around getting Endorsi's name back. Shortly after, a Red-Haired No-Name runs up to Bam, and gets on his knees to beg Viole to kill Kaiser for all the horrible things the latter did to him and the people on the station.

Meanwhile, Team Shibisu with the help of Team Nobic are seen watching over Name Hunt Station to see how Kaiser and the remaining five of the station's Ten Bosses react to Viole's rebellion. However, there's no changes, and Shibisu gets an angry Pocket message from Khun claiming that he will kill the former for forcing Bam into a rebellion. Shibisu then discusses with Hatz how despite none of the Ten Bosses coming out of hiding, Viole's rebellion is still too much to just ignore, which Shibisu theorizes that Kaiser itself is going to confront Viole.

Back to Bam's group, Khun throws the Red-Haired No-Name off Bam to make it clear to the no-name that they have their own reason to go after Kaiser rather then get revenge for others. Thus, he orders the Red-Haired No-Name to fix his own problems rather than make others do it. Suddenly, Kaiser appears before Bam and company, and greets the Slayer Candidate, which Sia Sia send word to Team Shibisu over her Pocket about Kaiser's appearance. Kaiser notes that Viole doesn't look intimidating for a FUG Slayer Candidate, which she adds isn't all that surprising since Kaiser reveals that she's actually a woman despite being the station's dangerous warlord. Kaiser then questions Viole as to why he decided to start a revolt on Name Hunt Station when Slayer Candidates aren't known for seeking out justice. Bam just answers that he's here to take Kaiser's name, which she appears to find underwhelming that he's just like everyone else that's come to the station. The Red-Haired No-Name then charges at Kaiser out of revenge for how he's been treated on Name Hunt Station, but the moment he touches her, the station kills him by making his body disappear.

Kaiser taunts the dead Red-Haired No-Name for forgetting the station rules that she's untouchable unless she initiates the duel, or she's challenged at the station's festival by someone who's stolen the names of all Ten Bosses. To stop Viole's chaos from spreading, Kaiser challenges Bam to a fight, which the station's rules grant the duel with their names on the line. She sends a powerful unseen attack at Bam, which his senses are good enough to dodge it, but he remains confused as to what's going on. Khun uses his Lighthouse to see the attack, and realizes that Kaiser has a powerful Item Inventory that's capable of making her weapons invisible, which he questions how she got her hands on a powerful item usually seen higher up the Tower. Bam then counters with up to seven shinsu Bangs directly at Kaiser only for her to reveal that she has a powerful Armor Inventory that blocked the Bangs. As a result, Khun theorizes that the Great Families must have provided strong items to Kaiser for the dirty work she's been doing for them at Name Hunt Station, but he remains convinced that she's still hiding her true strength.

Bam decides to get serious by bringing out the power of the Thorn, which Kaiser does the same bringing out a power that displays a wolf-like image. Before the Bam vs. Kaiser duel continues however, they're suddenly interrupted by the arrival of Endorsi teleporting in using her Bong Bong fairy. Endorsi having got word about Kaiser's location from Team Shibisu through Sia Sia. Endorsi gives Bam a friendly greeting, and then calls out Kaiser for refusing to wait for the Jahad Princess to challenge her again. The interruption confuses Kaiser to the point of questioning Endorsi if she knows Viole, which Endorsi replies that her and Viole are a couple, and that she's taking Viole with her. The Bong Bong fairy then activates with Endorsi holding Viole as Sia Sia also drags Khun into the Bong Bong. As Endorsi teleports away with Bam, Khun, and Sia Sia, she taunts Kaiser that since her station duel with Viole is still active, they can now fight Kaiser whenever they want. Kaiser realizes that she's fallen for Endorsi and Team Shibisu's trick as they were aiming to run away with the person she initiated a duel with, but before she could act, Endorsi teleports away with the others. Endorsi last words being that she will be waiting for Kaiser at tomorrow's festival.

    Season 2: Ch. 205 (Chapter 284) 

As Bam's companions remain with the no-name Regulars on the outside land of "Unnamed" island, Rak spots Endorsi's Bong Bong fairy flying away in the sky (not knowing that she took Bam, Khun, and Sia Sia with her). Arie Inieta of the Ten Bosses then appears before Rak and his no-name group. Inieta remains disappointed that Viole's nowhere in sight, but he's taken an interest in having a fight with Rak.

Meanwhile, Endorsi uses her Bong Bong fairy to drop herself, Bam, Khun, and Sia Sia off at Team Shibisu's room in the "Unnamed" lodge. Shibisu and Hatz are on standby in their team room to greet Bam and company, which Shibisu tries to act friendly knowing that Khun's going to be pissed about using Viole's name to start a no-name rebellion. Exactly that happens as Khun proceeds to give Shibisu a bump on the head before they all sit down to have a meeting regarding the current situation at Name Hunt Station. Shibisu tries to explain that they had other plans if Viole's rebellion didn't go exactly as planned, which Khun calls them out for not realizing how dangerous it is to use Viole, a FUG name, at a station related to Jahad and the Ten Great Families. Endorsi ends up finding the meeting boring, and wants to take Bam to her room, but gets called out by Khun claiming that it's her fault for ending up in this mess, which angers Endorsi into giving Khun a bump on the head as well.

The meeting continues, which Khun provides Team Shibisu the warning about the danger the no-named Endorsi is in since those taking part in the Jahad Princess competition will surely aim to tell King Jahad about Endorsi losing her name. Thus, Endorsi would have her Princess status taken away to raise up the other competitors. Shibisu admits that this is why his team needs to steal away Kaiser's name before that happens, but Khun provides them the bad news that Bam's also in need of Kaiser's name. Explaining to them that since Rachel's on the way to the 43rd Floor of Death, Bam needs to provide Kaiser's name to Princess Yuri as proof that he's ready to take on said Floor. As a result, Khun announces to Shibisu that Team Bam and Team Shibisu aren't teamed up, but will be competing for Kaiser's name.

Back at Rak's location, he steps forward to take on Arie Inieta alone despite the no-names warning him that Inieta's one of the strongest of the Ten Bosses. Hyped to fight a small alligator humanoid, Inieta asks if it's okay that Rak's choosing to give up his number advantage, but Rak orders him to charge already. Inieta accepts it, and unleashes his sword upon Rak, who fights back in close-combat using his Mad Shocker spear. As they duel, Rak struggles to keep up; catching on that he's dealing with the same strong Arie Family swordsmanship that White uses.

Meanwhile, the rest of Bam's companions (Ehwa, Danhwa, Sachi, Boro, Iruroe, and Hwaryun) are seen with another group of no-names on "Unnamed" island. Danhwa discusses with Ehwa how impressed he is that the latter's choosing to tackle the problems of the Ten Great Families despite her being a Great Yeon Family member, which Ehwa admits that it's something she learned from her experiences with Viole. She then asks why Danhwa's so interested in protecting Team Rachel's Yura, who's a girl he hardly knows. Danhwa explains that along with it being a part of his knight culture to protect women, there's another reason Yura told him as to why he feels that Yura needs protecting. Before he could explain further, they catch sight of Rak's fight with Inieta going on nearby. Ehwa and Danhwa head off to help him. At that same time, Rak's seen having been slashed across the face by Inieta, who's proving to be a powerful opponent.

Back at Team Shibisu's room, Endorsi's seen having taken Bam to her bed area for a private chat. Endorsi gets the gist that Bam's still chasing after Rachel, which they then change the topic to the fight with Kaiser. Bam thinks that he can defeat Kaiser despite how strong she proved to be while Endorsi reveals that she lost her name to Kaiser in a duel due to the latter having certain abilities that can't be beaten at the station. However, Endorsi refuses to tell Bam what they are. Endorsi then explains to Bam of how Kaiser revealed a bit of her past during the duel. That Kaiser's actually a member of the Ten Great Families who was supposed to become a Jahad Princess. However, some sort of incident happened 1000 years ago that cancelled the plan for Kaiser to become a Princess. Not saying anything further, Endorsi then moves to seduce Bam. She gets up close to Bam asking him to be her servant so that they can challenge Kaiser at the station's festival tomorrow using the still going Viole vs. Kaiser duel. However, Bam makes it clear to Endorsi that he can't help her steal Kaiser's name since he also needs the name for his own goal.

Returning to Khun and Shibisu's talk in the other room, Shibisu can't believe what he's hearing regarding Khun claiming that Team Bam and Team Shibisu will be rivals over Kaiser's name. Khun makes it clear that nothing will make him back down from letting Bam get Kaiser's name, which Shibisu finds ridiculous since Endorsi's life is currently in danger (as well as Anaak since the Team Shibisu need Endorsi to steal Kaiser's name to get the Lo Po Bia Family off Anaak's back). Shibisu tries to get Khun to reconsider, but Khun isn't having it; viewing their predicament as punishment for forcing Bam to start up a no-name rebellion under his Slayer Candidate name. Khun moves to leave the room only to be blocked off by Hatz. Getting the gist that they're now competing teams, Hatz draws his sword ready to fight Khun to keep the latter from leaving.

    Season 2: Ch. 206 (Chapter 285) 

Within Team Shibisu's room at the "Unnamed" lodge, Endorsi remains confused as to why Bam needs to steal Kaiser's name. Bam explains to her his need for the name to prove to Princess Yuri that he can take on the 43rd Floor of Death, which Endorsi finds ridiculous since it sounds like Bam is fine with Endorsi dying if it means that he can continue chasing after Rachel. Despite Bam trying to state that that's not the case, Endorsi decides to make Bam her servant by force, and starts the name-stealing process on him.

Nearby, Hatz blocks off Khun from leaving Team Shibisu's room after Khun declared that their two teams are now competing to steal Kaiser's name. Khun tries to make it clear that there's no need to fight in this rivalry, but Hatz replies that along with not liking how Team Bam has decided to turn their back on Endorsi, they have no choice but to fight since they have no other plan to save Endorsi if Viole's not going to help. As a result, Khun pulls out a knife from his Lighthouse ready to engage in a close-combat duel with Hatz while also calling out the latter for the hypocrisy of making Bam return to his Viole name against his will. The two of them proceed to engage in close-combat as Shibisu watches on trying constantly to get them to stop. As they duel, Khun utilizes his Lighthouse to cast the Lighthouse Shinsu Manipulation Skill: Weapon Boost - Emerald Sword in order to boost his knife's strength against Hatz' sword. In return, Hatz uses his Dance of the Fish Seven Shots: The Ascent of Dragon sword technique to send a barrage of sword slashes at Khun to break through the latter's Lighthouse barrier defense.

The close-combat duel between Khun and Hatz continues with Hatz getting in a couple hits. Khun congratulates Hatz for being able to keep up with a Ten Great Family member who's utilizing Lighthouse support, and charges in once more. In return, Hatz goes for one final powerful downward strike to keep Khun from leaving. The result is Khun's arm being left a bloody mess from Hatz' strike, but Khun accomplishes his main objective of passing by Hatz in order to leave the room. Thus, resulting in Hatz' loss. As he exits the room, Khun tells Shibisu and Hatz that he won't stop Team Shibisu from going after Kaiser's name, but also warns that he will fight them if they continue to use Viole's name for their schemes again as he doesn't want to see Bam return to that life. Khun reunites with Sia Sia in the next room, which the latter tells informs him about what Endorsi's doing with Bam.

Moments after, Khun and Sia Sia enter Endorsi's room to stop her from trying to name-steal Bam. Khun makes it clear to her that he's already settled things with Shibisu and Hatz, and asks Endorsi to stop as well. Despite Khun repeating what Bam said to her about needing Kaiser's name to go to the 43rd Floor of Death, Endorsi once more reminds them that her life's on the line. In return, Bam explains that there's more to his journey to the 43rd Floor of Death. That while its true that he's chasing after Rachel, it's also a journey for himself in order to learn more about his own past, and the importance of the Thorns that he's been using a weapon. Bam then assures Endorsi that they'll find a way to save Endorsi without her needing to take Kaiser's name. However, Endorsi dislikes the answer, and gives Bam an ultimatum to despite by 5pm tomorrow as to whether he's going to help her or chase after Rachel. Endorsi threatening that if it's the latter, she will try to name steal him in order to get in on the Viole vs. Kaiser duel that's still active.

Bam, Khun and Sia Sia finally depart from Team Shibisu's room. Khun asks how they should go about the situation they're in, which Bam figures that along with stealing Kaiser's name, they need to find a way to make sure that Endorsi lives as well after her name's been stolen. The three of them struggle to think of a method to fix Endorsi's problem, which they figure that another confrontation with Endorsi and Team Shibisu at some point will surely happen.

Elsewhere within Kaiser's chamber, Kaiser's seen with the Lo Po Bia Princess twins as Alphine arrives to inform them of recent events. The watching Lo Po Bia twins taking note of how surprising it is that Viole and Endorsi are in cahoots, which they see as an opportunity to tell the higher-ups that a Jahad Princess is teaming up with a member of FUG. Alphine also informs them of Arie Inieta's decision to attack the no-name island despite the order for the Ten Bosses to stay put. Despite Kaiser being annoyed over it since Inieta's always been a troublemaker, a plan suddenly pops up in Kaiser's mind. She orders for Alphine to send word to the Ten Bosses to go and support Inieta. The goal being to take something from Viole just like how he took the no-names away from her. Kaiser states that the goal will be to show Viole how merciless Name Hunt Station truly is by taking his companions hostage, and then selling them off at the station's auction.

At that same time, Rak's seen still engaged in his close-combat duel with Inieta despite the former's struggles with keeping up with Arie-swordsmanship. The latter getting even more hyped up that Rak's keeping up with him.

    Season 2: Ch. 207 (Chapter 286) 

During a brief stall in the Rak vs. Inieta duel, Inieta praises Rak for being one of a few people able to keep up with his swordsmanship. He questions if Rak's animal instinct is allowing him to keep up, which Rak thinks to himself is indeed the case since he's still struggling to understand how to truly break through Arie-swordsmanship. Eventually, Ehwa and Danhwa arrive arrive as back-up for Rak, which Ehwa's ready to cast out her Yeon flames while Danhwa's ready to fight with his ignition sword.

Back at Shibisu and Hatz at the Unnamed lodge, the latter remains irritated over Khun's decision to turn his back on a friend. However, Shibisu orders him to drop it as its a price they're paying for trying to use Viole's name to their benefit. Hatz tries to assure him that they had no choice given the situation they're in, but Shibisu reminds Hatz that they're not supposed to be Viole's friends, but Bam's friends. Shibisu states that they made the mistake of not having the Viole name disappear back at the Workshop Battle, and that if they were truly Bam's friends, they shouldn't have tried to bring back Viole.

Returning to Rak's location, Ehwa casts out her Yeon flames upon Inieta, which Rak gets pissed off as he doesn't want anyone to get in the way of his prey. However, Inieta easily blocks the flames, and proceeds to charge at Ehwa knowing that she's a dangerous enemy from the Great Yeon Family. Given his knight culture to protect women, Danhwa blocks the way, and uses his ignition sword against Inieta. Surprised by how arrogant and strong his opponents are, the duel forces Inieta to pull out a special booze bottle that he's been carrying around.

At that same time, Hwaryun's seen guiding the group of no-names with Sachi, Boro, and Iruroe, along a safe path on "Unnamed" island to keep them out of danger from the fighting that's currently going on. After Kaiser gave the order to the remaining Ten Bosses to attack Viole's companions, Lulu of the Ten Bosses is seen spying on Hwaryun's group. However, Lulu doesn't see an opening to attack due to Hwaryun's group having many strong opponents, such as Sachi of the top-3 D-rankers. Meanwhile, Variel Vani of the Ten Bosses is seen with his followers breaking into Team Nobic's lodge room to capture them. However, Team Nobic's seen having already escaped away.

Back at the Inieta vs. Rak, Ehwa and Danhwa duel, Inieta has finished drinking the booze from his bottle. Danhwa charges in, but due to the boost that Inieta received from the bottle's liquid, his sword slash against Danhwa is strong enough to disarm Danhwa, which sends his ignition sword flying. Ehwa casts out her flames to distract Inieta for Danhwa to go and retrieve his ignition sword. However, Inieta manages to get to it first. He proceeds to ignite the ignition sword, which the blast instantly defeats Danhwa. Inieta's left impressed by the power of Danhwa's ignition sword, and decides to take it for himself. He then casts out another ignited slash upon Ehwa, which overtakes her Yeon flames, and leaves her in a rough state. It's at this point that Rak finally returns to his original size. Landing a punch on Inieta, Rak stands ready to go all-out against him. The ensuing battle leaves Inieta exhausted, but the duel ends with him having defeated Rak, Ehwa and Danhwa with the stolen ignition sword.

Meanwhile, Bam, Khun and Sia Sia are seen having exited the "Unnamed" lodge, and are heading elsewhere on a transport platform. Khun sees that Bam's lost in thought, and questions what the latter's thinking about. In return, Bam explains how even though he has his goal to go to the 43rd Floor of Death in order to learn more about himself, he's been left wondering if he was too harsh on Endorsi since it's her life that's on the line. In addition, recent events have had him realize that he has to take into account how his power doesn't just affect his friends, but his non-friends as well. Thus, he's been left wondering if by going the path of becoming a god, he could give everyone happiness. In return, Khun points out that it sounds better to be human. That it doesn't sound fun to be a god that just lives to make everyone around them happy. Khun continues by pointing out that Bam's power is his ability to be human. That he has the choice to decide how to use his power, and save those that he wants to save.

    Season 2: Ch. 208 (Chapter 287) 

The Ten Bosses return to Kaiser at her Grand Gallery chamber. Inieta leading the way with Rak, Ehwa and Danhwa as his chained hostages. Inieta asks Kaiser for a favor wanting Rak as his servant since the humanoid alligator impressed him with a tough fight. However, Kaiser refuses due to the current festival being more special than ever having a Slayer Candidate (Viole) and Jahad Princess (Endorsi) involved. Kaiser explains her plan that she's going to put Rak, Ehwa, and Danhwa up for auction to act as bait that will force Viole and his allies to come to her. She also announces that once Viole and Endorsi arrive, she's going to steal Viole's name and defeat Endorsi again in front of all that are set to appear at the station auction. Thus, she orders her Ten Bosses to just watch over the hostages until her plan is set in potion. The Bosses agree to it as Kaiser thinks to herself that Viole's about to find out how terrifying Name Hunt Station truly is since she's not the true ruler of it.

Meanwhile, Bam, Khun, and Sia Sia arrive at the location of their companions that were with the no-names only to see smoke in the distance of a previous battle. The location turns out to be the destroyed land of where Rak, Ehwa, and Danhwa fought Inieta, which is currently being investigated by a group led by Sachi and Boro. Upon investigating the aftermath, the two of them confirm that some of the damage was done by Ehwa's Yeon flames, which they assume that Rak, Ehwa and Danhwa were attacked by one of the Bosses, and were taken hostage. Amongst the station Regulars helping them investigate is a gray-man Regular named Red Gramon, and his unnamed partner who's a red-haired woman. Gramon figures that their missing comrades were probably taken to the auction, which he explains it to be an event at the festival where names are purchased for money from Rankers who arrive to take part in the auction. The higher value of the name, especially if it's a Great Family name, the higher the price. However, Gramon warns that while a Ranker buying a name will free the auctioned Regular from Name Hunt Station, a station rule is in place that makes the Regular forever a slave to the one who purchased it.

Sachi gets the gist that the Name Hunt Station auction is basically human trafficking as the Bam, Khun, and Sia Sia trio arrive on the scene. They're informed about Rak, Ehwa, and Danhwa getting captured, which they all then head into the "Unnamed" lodge to hold a meeting. Team Nobic joining in with them. After they all catch each other up on their current situation, Khun warns the group that they might end up butting heads with Team Shibisu once its time to go after Kaiser, but also that Rak, Ehwa, and Danhwa getting taken hostage changes things. Gramon explains how some of the no-names saw that it was Arie Inieta who took them, and details that while no one really knows why Inieta remains on the station when he's a member of the Great Arie Family, his strength is the only one of the station Bosses that Kaiser truly respects.

The group takes note of Inieta being an opponent to watch out for given that they've experienced the Arie Family already in White only to suddenly get interrupted by the lodge they're in starting to shake. Outside the lodge, Team Shibisu's bee-teammate, Vespa, remains on lookout duty, and notices something shooting off into the sky. Everyone else eventually spots the object flying up in the distance, which they realize that it's Kaiser's Grand Gallery chamber flying up on a floating platform. Gramon explains that it's the sign that the Name Hunt Station's festival has begun where Kaiser's Grand Gallery chamber becomes its own separate island. This being done to make sure that only those qualified to enter the festival are allowed to go up and participate in it. Meanwhile, Kaiser and the Ten Bosses are seen at a hidden location on festival island trapping their three hostages within a container, which Variel Vani puts a seal on the container to lock it given that he's known as the Key Man. With the bait set, Kaiser figures that it's about time to send the invite to Viole to come retrieve his companions.

From the "Unnamed" lodge, Bam and company see in the sky that the station's festival island is made up of two new floating platforms. One being an island for Kaiser's Grand Gallery chamber, and a much larger unknown island. Gramon explains that the larger second festival island is where the auction will take place, and that Ranker auctioneers will soon be arriving at the festival to take part in the auction. Similar to what he told Sachi, Gramon explains how the auction will work, and that there will be eight ships surrounding the festival island that the auctioneers will be on, which they sit back and watch the items shown off on festival island. However, Gramon warns that the auction could include dangerous events, like forcing deathmatches to show how much stronger one item is than the other. Gramon also reminds them that this festival is where Kaiser can officially be challenged by someone who's stolen the names of the Ten Bosses, but that it hasn't happened for the past 1000 years.

It's at this point that Kaiser makes an announcement for everyone to hear along with leaving a Pocket message to everyone, including the incoming auctioneers. The Pocket reading that there will be a special Viole vs. Princess Endorsi event at the auction. Kaiser announces about the festival auction going down tomorrow, and that the special event will be a duel where its winner gets to have Viole's companions while the loser loses their name, and is put up for auction. Thus, forcing an event where either Viole or Endorsi lose their name, or else the three hostages die. The hostages will also die if Viole or Endorsi are absent for the duel. Hearing the announcement, Bam's group and Team Shibisu are left confused as to how they should handle this. Khun figuring that Kaiser's attempting to make Bam's group and Team Shibisu fight one another in order for Kaiser to gain the upper hand. However, Khun doesn't view this to have changed much considering that they're already at odds with Endorsi and Team Shibisu.

Khun asks Bam what the plan is since it's obvious that Kaiser's challenging Viole to come save his captured companions from her on festival island before the auction begins, which Bam states that they don't have any choice but to try. Dan offers himself and Team Nobic to be the ones to perform the rescue operation since Kaiser doesn't know yet that they're part of Bam's group, which Bam and company accept. Gramon and his female partner are also interested in helping since they desire revenge against Kaiser. Thus, Gramon's female partner offers to guide Team Nobic through the festival island to the hostages since they understand Name Hunt Station's structure better than anyone. Believing that they're ready, Bam announces that it's time to head out and defeat Kaiser.

At that same time, the ships full of the Ranker auctioneers are seen arriving at Name Hunt Station for the festival auction. They hear an announcement that the auction will begin tomorrow at 5pm, and that a special event has been set up. Within one of the floating ship auctioneer residences, the auctioneers all receive televised footage of the station's large empty festival room that the auction will be taking place. One of the watching newly arrived Ranker auctioneers turns out to be Bam's FUG master, Ha Jinsung.

Long Summary

    Team Nobic Arrive at Name Hunt Station 

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_01.jpg
Ran tries to gather information as to why his team is being attacked upon arrival

Following Team Nobic's arrival at an entrance path towards the 39th Floor station, Ran kicks the head of one of the bear-men he just defeated. He continues to kick the bear-man's head stating that he knows its not dead since he only zapped it with a bit of electricity. Ran orders the bear-man to explain the current situation confused as to why his team is getting a big welcoming announcement, but Sia runs up to him begging him to stop kicking it. Sia scolds Ran asking how he doesn't feel sorry for the bear-man, and points out that it's not going to be able to talk anymore anyway, which annoys the Khun Family member.

The annoyed Ran points out how they went to the trouble of skipping the last Floor station to try out the one at the 39th Floor, but also complains as to why the people here are being weird shouting out each other's names. He warns Team Nobic that it appears they've arrived at a Hell Train station that's going to be super annoying. From one of the station buildings, voices are heard yelling in excitement wondering who the powerful newcomers are. One of which points out that a member from Team Nobic is obviously from the Great Khun Family.

Ran suggests for the team to turn around and go back believing that Name Hunt Station is going to be quite a nuisance, which enrages Sia. She reminds Ran that they've still got a job to board the Hell Train in order to chase after Rachel.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_02.jpg
Ran destroys the path behind his team to keep the other Regulars from joining them

At this point, Nobic finally joins the conversation, and reminds Ran that since they can't retreat anymore, they won't be able to simply give up and turn around. He then orders his team to stop talking, and get moving towards the station. Dan also adds to the conversation that if it wasn't for a certain big shot (Ran), their retreat wouldn't be closed off like this.

Dan points out that the other Regulars they arrived at the 39th Floor station with have started to get noisy behind them due to Ran's actions. Seen behind Team Nobic is a destroyed bridge as the other Regulars from the other side call out to them calling Team Nobic cheap bastards for going on without them. Dan reminds Team Nobic that the noisy group of Regulars are the people they arrived with on a floating ship, but didn't think a certain big shot would go so far as to destroy the retreat route just because people were too noisy. A brief flashback occurs showing Ran destroying the bridge behind them with a giant ball of electricity.

Hearing the group of Regulars ordering Ran to die off, the Khun Family member begins to spark electricity asking if he should kill them. However, Dan begs Ran to control himself better. He points Ran forward to reminds the latter that it appears their next group of enemies are about to appear. On a second platform in front of Team Nobic, another group of bear-men is seen. Dan suggests that they should continue approaching the station by sending the next group of enemies flying. Getting annoyed even further, Ran powers up his electricity realizing that he doesn't have much choice at this point. Ordering Team Nobic to charge, Ran sends a blast of electricity towards the bear-men as many get instantly defeated and knocked off the bridge. Meanwhile, Beta remains within Sia's lighthouse complaining that he wants to leave it due to the confined space.

Team Shibisu watching Team Nobic fight their way into Name Hunt Station

From the station building they're in, Shibisu and Endorsi continue to watch Team Nobic fight their way into the station. Shibisu notes how amazing it is that Ran is just going about slaughtering the bear-men defenders, which Endorsi replies that Ran is soon going to regret going all-out so early since the Khun Family member is going to be drained of all his strength by the time he finally makes it into the station. In agreement, Shibisu admits that Team Nobic will soon realize that this isn't such a simple Hell Train station.

Within their room is a few other members of Team Shibisu. Hatz asks if it's about time for them to start moving since the Hell Train will be arriving here soon. Lauroe is seen sleeping away near him as Hatz states that it's about time they start hunting for Kaiser. Anaak reminds Hatz that Kaiser will truly make his appearance when the Hell Train finally arrives, but suggests that the team should start to get ready. Endorsi replies back that they should just remain at their current location for now since the only person she truly wants to hunt is still on the Hell Train (referring to Bam).

At another location of Name Hunt Station, a Regular with a red mohawk is seen running up to his boss, Lord Hesse, to inform the latter of some breaking news. Hesse asks what the news is, which the mohawk Regular explains that there's been other Regulars claiming that they witnessed a member of the Great Khun Family with the team that just arrived at Name Hunt Station. The news shocks Hesse, who announces a moment after that he's decided to hunt that name.

    Yuri's Assignment to Team Bam - Defeat Kaiser 

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_04.png
Bam's group exits the Hell Train's 38th Floor Test area to ride up to the 39th Floor

Meanwhile within the Hell Train, Bam's group is announced the victors of the train's 38th Floor Test having defeated the Gray Guardian. Rak notes that he doesn't like the thought of seeing something that looks just like him get knocked down, and says to himself that this current group of turtles are ruthless. The announcement continues to speak by asking for the Regulars who passed the 38th Floor Test to move towards the gate so that they can continue riding the train to the 39th Floor, which excites Bam. The Bam, Khun, and Rak, tro walk towards the Hell Train gate as the Khun Family member gives off a few stretches glad that he's finally about to get a chance to rest.

Rak asks if the blue turtle felt anything about beating up the giant alligator guardian, which Khun quickly answers that there wasn't. Meanwhile, the white-haired clone of a billion souls watches Bam leave, and finds it confusing as to how the boy appears to be alright despite having just used the power of a billion souls against Hoaqin. She questions to herself if it's the power of the Thorn allowing Bam to pull it off, or if there's perhaps something else about the boy that's making him special. Bam is heard telling Khun that it was easier to defeat the Hell Train guardian this time around, which Khun agrees with.

At that same time, Team Rachel is seen at another Hell Train test location defeating the guardian for their 38th Floor Test. Hoaqin slices through the neck of the guardian to kill it as the announcement is made that Rachel's team has passed the test, and may now head towards the gate to continue riding the train up to the 39th Floor.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_05.png
Rachel warns Hoaqin that his impatience could ruin her plan

Rachel notes that she's glad to have chosen to save Hoaqin's life since he still has a lot of strength left despite being defeated by Bam at the Dallar Show. Hoaqin replies ordering Rachel not to act as if the two of them are close friends since he still hasn't chosen to be her subordinate. He also reminds her that the only reason he's cooperating is so he can find is final White sibling.

Hoaqin asks what the rest of Rachel's group is planning to do since they have a lot of time to waste until they reach the 43rd Floor of Death. He asks if Viole's group survived the Boiling Acid trap at the engine core, which Rachel answers that they're still alive according to Emile, and are probably still in the Hell Train somewhere. The answer surprises Hoaqin, who states that they should quickly head to their location, but Rachel scolds him by pointing out how Hoaqin's impatient personality is turning out to be his greatest flaw. Rachel explains to Hoaqin that she has a plan, and asks for him to continue waiting it out as Hoaqin attacking early could result in everything getting screwed up.

Back to Bam's group, they're all seen sitting on benches getting a breather after the test. Yuri congratulates them for a job well done, and reminds them that soon enough, the Hell Train will be arriving at the 39th Floor station. Yuri also points out how she's heard about their plan to journey to the 43rd Floor of Death, and knows that they have legitimate reasons for wanting to go there.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_06.png
Yuri announcing that she will join Bam's expedition to the 43rd Floor of Death

Yuri announces that she's decided to go along with them given how dangerous the Floor of Death is, which comes as a surprise to the rest of Bam's companions since this is the first time hearing that the Bam, Khun, and Rak, team has decided to go there. Boro notes how he's heard of how dangerous the 43rd Floor of Death is, which Sachi questions what it is that could be there that would drive Bam to want to go there. Khun explains to them that they've discovered it's where Rachel is aiming for, but also states that it's just Bam's three-man group that have decided to go. He assures Boro and company that they aren't being forced to go, and can just remain on the Hell Train while Bam, Khun, and Rak, enter the Floor of Death.

Yuri adds that she agrees with this logic, but also points out that she would prefer if Bam's three-man group didn't go either. She asks for people who want to stay behind to speak up now, which causes Wangnan to think things over. Prince and Miseng decide right away to go given that Viole is going to be involved. Cherry La of Team Bero decides to go as well, which shocks Bero. She asks why Cherry would want to go, which the latter answers that it sounds like an interesting journey. The clone-girl of a billion souls raises her hand wishing to go, but reminds them that she can't given how she's still not allowed to leave the Hell Train. Boro states to Sachi that it's obvious they need to go, which Sachi agrees with knowing that if Rachel is going to be there, Hoaqin will obviously show up alongside her. Having heard everyone's answer, Yuri is left surprised that not many are choosing to stay away from the Floor of Death.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_07.png
Bam's group tasked to defeat Kaiser to prove that they're ready for the 43rd Floor

Yuri explains to Bam and his companions of their current assignment to prove to her that they can handle the 43rd Floor of Death. She states that their objective is to steal away the name of a person named Kaiser at the upcoming 39th Floor's Name Hunt Station. Bam remains confused by the mission, which Sachi asks if the person Yuri is referring to is the person known as Kaiser the Name Hunter. Everyone turns their attention to Sachi, who explains to Bam and company that just like himself, Kaiser the Name Hunter is known as one of the three strongest D-rank Regulars, which shocks everyone.

Sachi continues to explain that while Kaiser is indeed one of the three strongest D-rankers, he's known to have ruled over Name Hunt Station for 1000 years. As a result, Kaiser will be on a whole different level compared to Sachi. He also warns Bam and company that Kaiser has become notorious for stealing away the names of anyone who dared to venture into Name Hunt Station. Khun asks what Sachi means by stealing names, which the latter reminds the former of how the place is called Name Hunt Station.

Sachi explains that the 39th Floor station has a rule where whoever wins in battle against another is allowed to steal away the name of the loser. As a result, whoever loses their name is not allowed to use it for the rest of their life. As for the person who came out the winner, including stealing away the loser's name, they also get everything in the loser's possession. Sachi warns Bam and company that this rule only applies within Name Hunt Station, and is no exception to people that come from the Ten Great Families. Adding to Sachi's explanation, Evan states to Bam and company that Kaiser is known as a veteran warlord who's never had his name stolen at Name Hunt Station for the past 1000 years.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_08.png
Bam remembering that he made a promise to return to the Rice Pot

Evan warns the group that while Kaiser may just look like an old pathetic student to Rankers, the station warlord will no doubt be Bam and company's toughest opponent so far. Evan further explains their assignment that in order to pass it, they must successfully steal away Kaiser's name during the two days that the Hell Train remains docked at Name Hunt Station.

However, he warns Bam and company to be careful as stated before, Kaiser is an all-powerful ruler that has ruled Name Hunt Station for 1000 years. In addition, there will also be Kaiser's subordinates that they will have to deal with. Evan leaves off warning Bam and company that if they let their guard down, they could get themselves stranded at the station due to losing their name and Express Ticket.

Bam, Khun, and Rak, enter a Hell Train bedroom to get some rest, which Khun complains that they won't get much time to do so given that the 39th Floor Station is just a few days away. Khun also points out how things have gotten tough lately, and hopes that Kaiser isn't as psychotic as Hoaqin, which causes Bam to laugh in agreement.

However, Bam notes how it'se felt like they've been forgetting about something recently, which confuses Khun. Bam explains that it just feels like there was somewhere he had to visit. After thinking it over, a shocked Bam remembers that he has to return to the Rice Pot. At the location of the Rice Pot, the God of Guardians is seen getting impatient wondering why the boy hasn't returned yet.

    Ran vs. Station Boss Hesse 

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_09.png
Team Nobic greeted by Hesse at the entrance of Name Hunt Station

Back to Name Hunt Station, Team Nobic is seen having arrived at the entrance after fighting their way through all the bear-men defenders. Standing at the doorway, Team Nobic remain confused as to why a giant Regular is seen standing before them.

The giant, Hesse, gives off a laugh pointing out how the rumors were true that a member of the Great Khun Family has indeed arrived at Name Hunt Station. Looking down at Ran, Hesse orders the kid to hand over his name. In return, Ran's electricity begins to act up ready to face off against Hesse.

Returning to the Hell Train, Khun thinks about Bam's mention of the Rice Pot, and remembers that there was definitely a place like that in the Hell Train that has some sort of guardian going on about revolution. Khun admits that he understands Bam's promise to go back, but reminds the latter that there's just not enough time to return to the Rice Pot given that they're almost at Name Hunt Station.

However, Bam answers back that he can do this, which confuses Khun. Bam explains that he just has a feeling that he can make it to the Rice Pot, and even if there isn't much time left, he still wants to be someone who would keep his promise to the God of Guardians.

Moments later, Bam prepares to leave for the Rice Pot as Khun and Rak come to greet him. Khun asks if Bam is really choosing to go alone, which Bam answers that he is since he doesn't wish to be any more late. Bam claims that he should be fine doing this on his own, and assures Khun and Rak that he'll be back before they get off at the 39th Floor station.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_10.png
Hesse introduces himself as one of the station's Ten Bosses

Back to the Name Hunt Station entrance, Ran's electricity continues to act up not liking the fact that Hesse called him a kid. Dan and Sia begin to fear that Ran's about to act reckless as the former begs the Khun Family member to calm down. Sia agrees with Dan explaining that Hesse probably just mistook him as someone named Kid, and suggests that since they just got here, their best option would be to resolve things through words. However, Ran yells out that he's no kid as he sends a lightning attack at Hesse, which causes Dan and Sia to begin fearing for the worst.

Getting knocked back by the lightning attack, Hesse manages to remain standing having been able to fully absorb Ran's electricity. Hesse confirms that Ran is a user of electricity, and informs the Khun Family member the bad news that the boy's attacks aren't going to work on him, which grabs Ran's attention. Team Nobic watches in confusion as they see Hesse transform his body to look like someone who's made of dirt and plants. Dan asks what they're looking at seeing that Hesse has turned his body into dirt. In return, Hesse properly introduces himself as one of Name Hunt Station's Ten Bosses known as the Dirt Man.

Showing off his body, Hesse explains that since his body is made of dirt, electricity will just pass right on through him. Sia notes how gross it is that grass appears to be growing on Hesse's body, which the Dirt Man replies that the plants make him even firmer. Next, Hesse asks for Team Nobic to turn their attention to a platform that just arrived as the mohawk Regular that was with Hesse earlier is seen arriving with a scroll to return to Hesse.

Opening up the scroll, the mohawk Regular shows the writing within it, and explains that they're the names of nine powerful people that Hesse has successfully hunted at Name Hunt Station. However, the mohawk Regular ponts out how none of the names are from the Ten Great Families. Hesse gloats that he's managed to hunt the nine previous people, because of the special attributes of his dirt body. That no matter what attack comes at him, be it lightning, fire, or anything else out there, most of such attacks will not affect his body of dirt.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_11.png
Hesse orders his subordinate, Chigrinsky, to explain the rules of Name Hunt Station

Thinking it over, Ran remains confused by what Hesse means by hunting people's names. The question surprises Hesse realizing that Team Nobic knows nothing about Name Hunt Station, and asks them what their light-bearer is doing, who's supposed to inform them of things they come across in the future. Hesse asks if Team Nobic's light-bearer is just decoration, which enrages Sia. She orders him to mind his own business since she's currently on strike at the moment for not receiving any money from Team Nobic to perform light-bearer duties. Finding Team Nobic a ridiculous bunch, Hesse orders Chigrinsky (the mohawk Regular) to explain Name Hunt Station to the newcomers, which Chigrinsky accepts. Pulling out his lighthouses, Chigrinsky informs Team Nobic that he's about to explain to them how Name Hunt Station works.

Chigrinsky begins explaining the station that just as Name Hunt Station implies, the rules of the place allows people to hunt each other's names. He also provides a little background history that Name Hunt Station was originally created as a means to settle a bet that the heads of the Ten Great Families by fighting one another with their names on the line. Chigrinsky adds that the primary goal is to take each other's names. Those who lose their name can't use it again until they're able to reclaim it. As for the winner, they gain possession of everything that was owned by the person that just had their name stolen. The result of Regulars having their names stolen become people known as no-names, who are forced to stay on the Name Hunt Station forever.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_12.png
Chigrinsky explains the structure of Name Hunt Station to Team Nobic

Continuing the explanation, Chigrinsky goes over how the station is set up. The first island platform they're on is the station entrance. Beyond that is a platform with the lodge for those who become no-names. This building is where the no-names live, and aren't allowed to leave Name Hunt Station until they've reclaimed their names. After the no-name platform is a much larger platform that has a massive lodge where the named stay, which are basically the Regulars that still have their names. The same massive platform with the named lodge also has the location of Kaiser's Gallery chamber known as the festival field.

Chigrinsky warns Team Nobic that the people who have stolen away the most names at Name Hunt Station are the Ten Bosses, and are also led by the strongest person on the station, Kaiser. Team Nobic asks who Kaiser is, which Chigrinsky answers that he's known as the commander of Name Hunt Station. Chigrinsky explains that Kaiser is a true warrior who's never lost his name in the past 1000 years, and is someone who only shows himself at the festival field of the Gallery when the Hell Train makes its stop at Name Hunt Station. He then warns Team Nobic to not try going about defeating Kaiser themselves since the warlord has never been defeated the past 1000 years, which causes Ran to think things over.

Ran thanks Chigrinsky for the information pointing out that the latter did much better than their team's light-bearer, which an enraged Sia orders him to shut up, and pay up first if he wants her help. Chigrinsky gives off a laugh appreciating Ran's complement as Hesse speaks once more asking if Ran now gets his current situation. Hesse orders Ran to hand over his name since the former desires to have a name of a Great Family member similar to the other Ten Bosses. Powering up his electricity once more, Ran replies that he still doesn't understand, which confuses Hesse.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_13.png
Ran eats his lightning pill in order to go all-out against Hesse

Ran explains that he's never been someone that attached to his own name, but remains confused as to why people would go to such lengths to steal someone else's name. He asks Hesse why the station would allow something like this, and also asks if this means that Hesse is someone who doesn't like his own name. Creating a lightning pill in his hand, Ran asks how anything meaningful can come from stealing away other people's names in order for the winners to live out someone else's life under that stolen name. He asks Hesse why the latter needs to steal away other people's names in order to feel satisfied.

Dan is surprised that Ran is already bringing out the lightning pill this early as the Khun Family member claims that he can't stand how pathetic this entire ordeal is. He informs Hesse that he's decided to not hand his name over to the station Boss no matter how many names Hesse has claimed previously. Eating the lightning pill, Ran scolds Hesse that no name will ever suit someone who doesn't appear to have any value in his own name. A moment later, Ran quickly zooms around Hesse to appear behind said station Boss prepared to fire an electric attack.

Hesse remains surprised by how fast Ran is as the Khun Family member sends an electric strike at Hesse's back claiming that he will never allow an idiot to take his name. Ran lands back on the ground as the uninjured Hesse turns around, and smirks at the Khun Family member since the attack had no effect on him. Ran then quickly charges in, and sends a kick at Hesse, who manages to also easily block it. Ran then sends a barrage of close-combat punches and kicks, which causes Hesse to admit that the Khun Family member is indeed really fast. Ran's last hit knocks Hesse back, but the station Boss has managed to absorb all the kicks and punches just now. Ran then follows up by creating a ball of electricity with his left hand, and increases its size to become a much larger electric ball.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_14.png
Ran vs. Hesse

In return, Hesse scolds Ran for being a stubborn one refusing to accept reality that no matter what, his lightning is not going to be able to affect a Dirt Man. Meanwhile, the rest of Team Nobic remain on standby watching the fight between Ran and Hesse of the Ten Bosses. Sia is surprised by how well Hesse has held up against Ran, and asks how the Dirt Man is someone that can absorb Ran's lightning attacks so easily. Nobic adds that this has all suddenly being a huge pain since it appears Hesse keeps trying to bait Ran into attacking, which confuses the rest of Team Nobic.

Believing that Hesse's light-bearer servant (Chigrinsky) must have told the station Boss some useful information on Ran, Nobic explains that he believes their current enemies have probably figured out that Ran's weakness is that his endurance is weak compared to the power he holds. Hesse gives off a laugh ordering the Ran kid to keep attacking. The station Boss thinks to himself that this will be an easy victory since all he has to do is stand in place and accept all of Ran's attacks until the Khun Family member finally wears himself out. Ran then jumps forward asking how much longer Hesse plans to address him as a kid, and lands a massive lightning attack on the station boss. However, Hesse shakes it off once more, and asks if Ran now gets that no matter how hard he tries, he will never be able to scratch a body made of dirt.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_15.png
Ran claiming that Hesse will be the perfect test subject to try his new move on

Believing Ran to be in danger, Sia warns Nobic that they should probably step in to help given how dangerous this is getting. However, Nobic orders her to hold off for just a bit longer. Nobic explains to Sia how he's noticed that ever since Ran suffered a loss at the 35th Floor's Train City, he's actually been keeping to himself training himself up during their journey to this 39th Floor station. Sia asks what Nobic means by training, which Nobic reveals that there have been many nights where he witnessed Ran working very hard training himself up.

The revelation shocks Sia given that she's always viewed Ran as a lazy bum. Sia states that she can't believe this, which Nobic replies that it's obvious Ran's previous defeats have been on his mind recently.

Standing before Hesse, Ran admits that his attacks have been doing no damage to the station Boss, but figures that he's finally found a person to test out his new attack on, which confuses Hesse. Swarming lightning around his left hand, Ran states that he's going to test the power of this next skill, which Hesse asks what Ran means by that. Hesse remains confused feeling the flow of shinsu swarming around Ran, who explains to Hesse that he thought up a new theory for his lightning abilities that took two days to manifest itself, but after completing it, he couldn't find anyone to test it against. Moving the lightning around in his hands, Ran informs Hesse that the latter has proven himself to be an excellent test subject to test this next attack on.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_16.png
Ran gathers enough shinsu to create a Grand Eléctrica Perla

Team Nobic watches on as Ran explains that he's always approached fighting by focusing all his shinsu to fire off a single Bang. However, he's recently thought up a theory by creating a skill that would allow him to keep gathering the shinsu to combine several Bangs into a much larger one. As a result, the one massive Bang will continue to get bigger and bigger until Ran feels that he's reached the maximum shinsu amount that the Bang can have stored. In simplest terms, Ran states to Hesse that his new skill is basically an enlarged version of his previous moves. He warns Hesse that while this larger attack is much harder to control, it allows for Ran to use as much gathered shinsu as he possibly can at once. Using the Maschenny-Style Shinsu Manipulation Skill: Grand Eléctrica Perla, a massive lightning spear is seen above Ran after gathering all the surrounding shinsu he can muster. The sight of Ran's Grand Eléctrica Perla shocks Hesse not being able to believe how huge the lightning spear has gotten, and admits that this could end up being dangerous for him.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_17.png
Ran kills Hesse with a Grand Espada de la Luz lightning spear

Continuing to hold the Grand Eléctrica Perla above himself, Ran claims to Hesse that even if the latter is a Dirt Man that can block people's attacks, there must be a limit to how much shinsu the station Boss can withstand. Ran turns his Grand Eléctrica Perla into a Grand Espada de la Luz sword spear, and throws it towards Hesse ordering him to try to resist this next attack. As the Grand Espada de la Luz lightning spear gets closer to Hesse, Ran yells out that if Hesse is able to withstand this attack, he will gladly hand over his name to the station Boss.

However, Hesse finds Ran's order to be ridiculous since it's clear as day that the Grand Espada de la Luz is too big to block against. Unable to block it, Ran's Grand Espada de la Luz ends up passing through Hesse as the image of the massive lightning sword appears beyond the station Boss.

Following the attack, Ran breathes a sigh of relief knowing that the battle is over. The dust of the Grand Espada de la Luz subsides as Team Nobic and Chigrinsky see that Hesse is gone. Ran taunts the killed Hesse stating that it appears the name from the Khun Family was too much for the station boss to handle.

Meanwhile, the people within the Name Hunt Station lodges are left amazed by how terrifying Ran is having just witnessed him defeat Hesse of the Ten Bosses. One also adds that this has just made him want to steal away Ran's name even more, and points out that it's obvious at this point that another of the Ten Bosses is going to appear to get rid of these newcomers that just defeated Hesse.

At that same time, Shibisu and Endorsi continue to watch from their window Team Nobic making their way into the station. Shibisu admits that Ran has proven himself to have gotten stronger, which Endorsi agrees that things are about to get even more interesting. They watch as Team Nobic finally enters the station.

    Bam Returns to the Rice Pot 

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_18.png
Kaiser of the top-3 D-rank Regulars, and warlord of Name Hunt Station

Switching to the Grand Gallery of Name Hunt Station, a female messenger is seen bringing word to Kaiser that a team of five Regulars (Team Nobic) have just entered the station. The messenger explains how one of the Regulars appears to be a member from the Great Khun Family, but was able to kill, and steal away, Hesse's name after said station boss tried to steal away the Khun Family member's name at the entrance. She then asks what Kaiser would like to do about this, which causes the station leader to think things over.

The female messenger, revealed to be one of the Ten Bosses known as Alphine the Shadow Girl, asks once more for Kaiser's orders. However, Kaiser asks Alphine to simply relax for now since they still have two more days to kill before the Hell Train finally arrives at the 39th Floor station. Kaiser orders Alphine to continue being patient since no matter who enters Name Hunt Station, the names will always eventually become his.

Returning to the Hell Train, the God of Guardians sees Bam before him, who has finally returned to the Rice Pot. The God of Guardians scolds Bam for being late, which Bam admits that a lot has happened ever since he first entered this place. Bam also informs the God of Guardians that he actually only has two days to work with since he needs to get off at the 39th Floor station, which shocks the God of Guardians.

Bending down to Bam, the God of Guardians asks what the boy is up to given the short amount of time they have to work with. Bam apologizes for this, but states that he just felt the need to tell the God of Guardians that he doesn't have much time. Knowing he has no choice, the God of Guardians grabs hold of Bam, and states that the best they can do in this situation is do a crash course. The God of Guardians then jumps back into the Rice Pot, and drops off Bam at the bottom of it. Taking a closer look at Bam, the God of Guardians notices how something about the current boy seems different than last time.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_19.png
The God of Guardians explains how Bam has the potential to change the Tower

Bam explains that during his last battle, he obtained a power containing the souls of a billion people who died unfairly. The God of Guardians asks what Bam means by that, which causes Bam to remember back to the moment he made a golden shinsu sword against Hoaqin. He tells the God of Guardians that it was a very strong and terrifying power. In return, the God of Guardians states that Bam still looks completely fine despite having received such a terrifying power, which catchs Bam's attention.

Bam asks if such a case is normal, which the God of Guardians answers that it probably isn't since not everyone can accept power that goes beyond their current limits. The God of Guardians explains the Bam has proven to be someone special and infinite that accepted the power as if it was nothing despite the fact that countless others in the Tower who have fixed limits wouldn't have been able to do so. the guardian adds that people like Bam are the ones who brought about changes to the Tower such as Jahad and his Ten Great Family leaders, as well as Urek Mazino. Pointing at Bam, the God of Guardians states that Bam is yet another person that has the potential to change the Tower.

In return, Bam answers that he's never thought of himself as a special person, which surprises the God of Guardians. The guardian figures that the problem Bam is currently facing is that he's unaware of his true self, which leaves Bam confused. The God of Guardians states that it's obvious Bam has not yet realized how important of a person Bam is to the Tower. The guardian adds that he's come to hope that Bam is someone who can change the Tower after the former group of kids (Jahad and the Family heads) ruined it. Bam asks who he means by other kids, but the God of Guardians asks the boy to come back after finding his true self as Bam ends up going unconscious within the Rice Pot once more.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_20.png
The Power explains how the golden ball is the billion souls that Bam devoured

Within his mind, the unconscious Bam comes across the being known as the Power again. The Power is surprised to see that Bam has returned as the latter is amazed to see that the former is still alive. Giving off a laugh, the Power calls out Bam as a shallow talker for someone that just tried to get rid of it with the thing that's nearby. The Power points to the massive ball of golden shinsu alongside it, which Bam apologizes for. Ignoring Bam's apology, the Power explains that the reason it's still alive instead of being swallowed up by the golden ball is because of the billion vengeful spirits that entered Bam's body in the last fight.

Bam asks how the billion spirits fit into this, which the Power states that given how great the number was, it was worried that Bam wouldn't be able to handle it. Yet to its surprise, the Power says to Bam that it witnessed the boy absorb such an incredible power at tremendous speed without even the slightest hint of mercy as if Bam had just devoured all their souls. Bam is left in a state of confusion being called someone who devours others. He looks at the ball of golden light near the Power, and wonders if the ball actually represents the strength of the souls that had all been killed by Hoaqin.

Back to Name Hunt Station, Team Nobic is now seen on a small platform with Chigrinsky floating towards a structure in the distance. Ran threatens to kill Chigrinsky if the latter is leading them to a weird place, which Chigrinsky assures Ran that there's currently no reason for him to deceive a member of the Great Khun Family. Chigrinsky explains how the small island transport they're currently on is a floating transport device to allow people to move around the other floating islands of Name Hunt Station. He adds that only named light-bears through the use of their lighthouses are allowed to operate them; meaning that people who are no-names aren't allowed to move from their current location.

    Team Nobic Arrives at the No-name Area 

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_21.png
Chigrinsky leads Team Nobic to the floating island of the no-names

Chigrinsky gives Ran the thumbs up claiming that as a light-bearer, no other floating island driver is better than him. He assures Team Nobic that he will be sure to take care of getting them around the station, which confuses Ran as to how Chigrinsky could change attitudes so quickly. Moments later, Chigrinsky informs Team Nobic that they've arrived. The group sees a No-named Area sign to show that they've arrived at the floating island lodge for the staton's no-names.

Team Nobic notices how the no-name structure looks like any other apartment building, which Chigrinsky explains that up to six no-names share each of its rooms. He also adds that no-names can always live here since the lodging provides food and such, but aren't allowed to leave this place until they've succeeded in reclaiming their lost names. Sia remains shocked by the answer asking if Chigrinsky is implying that the no-names are stuck here for the rest of their lives, which Chigrinsky repeats himself is indeed the case. He states that no-names are stuck until they've reclaimed their name, or stolen someone else's, and under no circumstances are allowed to use their stolen names, which causes Sia to admit that Name Hunt Station is a scary place.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_22.png
Chigrinsky explains how people steal each other's names at the station

Ran thinks to himself that Name Hunt Station is giving him the creeps as Chigrinsky continues to explain that the things he just explained is why many Regulars avoid coming to the 39th Floor station. However, he points out that Team Nobic is very lucky to have arrived when they did, because it's quite a common occurrence for many people to lose their names, and get themselves trapped here, during the days that the Hell Train is docked at Name Hunt Station.

Chigrinsky adds that he will gladly tell them how the station's name-stealing mechanic works, which Ran answers that he doesn't need to know it. Despite Ran's rejection, Chigrinsky explains that the name-stealing works by simply putting a hand on an opponent's back. After a message is announced claiming that name-stealing has begun, the stealer just has to keep their hand in contact with the opponent's back for ten seconds.

However, Chigrinsky also adds that name-stealing works by just destroying oppoents, such as what Ran did to Hesse at the station entrance. Following the success of either case, a scroll will appear before the stealer, and the stolen name will automatically be generated upon it. Chigrinsky explains that the purpose of the scroll is to show the names that the winner has stolen away, who are also now considered as servants to the stealer. Team Nobic asks what Chigrinsky means by servants, which the latter explains that servants are those who are ruled by those who are still named.

Chigrinsky explains how Kaiser sits at the top of the station's slavery pyramid

In addition, the named may grant stolen names upon no-names to become named themselves. As a result of being given a new name, the person who had just been granted said name must now serve the named person as their master, and are never allowed to refuse an order from their master. Chigrinsky also points out that servants who were granted a new name by this method are actually allowed to get their own servants. As a result, it creates a never-ending chain of master-and-servant. Chigrinsky leaves off stating that at the top of this pyramid system is obviously Kaiser and his Ten Bosses. Having heard the explanation, Sia points out how it's nothing more than a pyramid slavery scheme, which Chigrinsky admits is the case.

Chigrinsky explains that Name Hunt Station is a place designed to be where those who are named enjoy the kind of power felt by those who are Rankers. As a result, it's why those at the top of the station have decided to never want to leave this place. Chigrinsky also warns Team Nobic to be careful as even if you end up as a named servant, Name Hunt Station's pyramid slave system is still going to be valid outside the station. He makes it clear to Team Nobic that within the station, their name means everything, which causes Sia to reply that the more she hears of this place, the more she gets freaked out. A moment later, an object is seen behind Team Nobic, which catches their attention. They quickly realize that it's an enemy Observer having spotted them, which causes Dan to warn the group that this can only mean they're about to be attacked by an enemy spear-bearer or wave controller.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_24.png
Team Nobic defeat several no-name Regulars who tried to attack them

Dan warns the group to begin running, but is shocked to see Ran having fallen to a sitting position. Ran informs the group that he no longer has any strength due to having gone all out against Hesse. In return, Nobic calls Ran a nuisance as he grabs Ran before they're struck by an enemy wave controller attack. Nobic gives the order for Sia to find the enemy location, which she answers that she's currently doing the search.

Using her lighthouse field, she manages to locate the controller of the Observer at a distant location. Dan is then given the order to get moving, which he does so by quickly racing off to the Observer user's location. Having already reached the Observer user, the attacker is shocked to see that Dan has already made it to him. Unable to keep up with Dan's speed, the attacker using the Observer ends up getting a kick to the face. Nobic next asks about the location of the enemy wave controller, which Chigrinsky answers that he's been doing the search with his lighthouse. A moment later, Chigrinsky informs Nobic that he's managed to find the location of the wave controller, which Nobic congratulates him for for being a fast worker.

Nobic then sends out a massive shinsu attack in the direction towards the enemy wave controller, who ends up getting quickly defeated. Arriving at the location of the wave controller, Nobic orders the latter to explain why he attacked them. However, the attacker wave controller says in his last words to give him his name back. The rest of Team Nobic, as well as Chigrinsky, rejoin Nobic asking about the current situation, which Nobic answers that the attacking wave controller has died. Chigrinsky notes that given how Nobic just used an attack containing three Bangs, he confirms that the newcomer group is stronger than he originally thought.

    Chigrinsky's Scheme 

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_25.png
Team Nobic and Chigrinsky get a room at the residence of the no-names

Sia asks if the people who just attacked them are the so called no-names, which Chigrinsky answers to be the case, and that this confirms that many of said no-names are going to be watching their every move. He suggests for Team Nobic to head for the lodging before the no-names continue to try to get a jump on them. Team Nobic agrees to do so as they follow after Chigrinsky towards the lodge. Ran, who is seen being carried by one of Sia's lighthouses due to having no strength currently, is forced to go along with it.

Some time after, Team Nobic have gotten themselves a room at the residence for the no-named. Sitting on couches in their room, Sia notes how their room feels like heaven compared to outside, and have been provided lots of food. Seeing Dan stretching nearby, Nobic asks how he's holding up, which Dan answers that he's just feeling a bit stiff. Nobic then looks to the weak Ran, which the Khun Family member admits that he currently feels like someone who's about to collapse at any moment. In return, Nobic calls out Ran as a dummy for using the lightning pill against Hesse without thinking about anything else.

Next, Chigrinsky appears before Team Nobic carrying a tray of drinks. Stating that it's a relief that they made it here safely, Chigrinsky offers them to have some water. Chigrinsky explains that it's a known rule that fighting is forbidden inside the no-name lodge, and are currently safe as long as they don't head back outside.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_26.png
Chigrinsky explains how there's currently a monster team trying to steal Kaiser's name

However, he warns them that it's a different story if one of the Ten Bosses was to enter here since they can open any door as they please. Sia asks who these Ten Bosses are that Chigrinsky keeps talking about wondering if it's perhaps some girl band, which he answers that he's referring to the ten named people that have obtained the most names at this station.

Chigrinsky continues to explain that the Ten Bosses are servants to Kaiser, and are perhaps considered as Kaiser's most faithful subordinates. He also states that if one was to gather up all ten names of the Ten Bosses, it will allow said person to challenge Kaiser directly when the Name Hunt Station festival comes around. However, Chigrinsky provides the bad news that there's never been a single person who's managed to perform such a feat in the past 1000 years that Kaiser has been here. Chigrinsky also reveals that another newcomer team has arrived recently, and has caused up quite a stir this year having been able to hunt down three others from the Ten Bosses. In addition to Hesse's defeat, this means that only six of the Ten Bosses remain at this point.

Nobic asks what Chigrinsky means by hunting the Ten Bosses, which the latter explains that he's heard the newcomer team has a swordsman of extraordinary capabilities (Hatz) as well as a monstrous lizard (Anaak). Chigrinsky warns Team Nobic that this team will surely come after them as well given that they now have Hesse of the Ten Bosses name, and are clearly on a path to face off against Kaiser, which Nobic admits that he doesn't like the sound of this. Sia adds that she also doesn't like the sound of facing off against a monstrous lizard, and suggest that their best option would be to just get on the Hell Train when they get the chance to do so.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_27.png
Chigrinsky revealed to have spiked Team Nobic's drinks with a powerful narcotic

Drinking a glass of water, and claiming that she refuses to get stuck in a place like this, Sia states that they should just lay low until the Hell Train gets to Name Hunt Station. Chigrinsky advises them that if that's their plan, they should just hand Hesse's name to someone else since it's a Boss name. As long as they have it, they will certainly get targetted. Chigrinsky also jokes that he would gladly accept Hesse's name if they were to offer it to them as he continues to pass around the drinks of water to Team Nobic.

Ran begins to drink the water agreeing that he's fine with getting rid of Hesse's name since it will just bring them trouble. However, Sia falls on her couch informing the team that she's suddenly feeling a bit sleepy for some reason. The rest of Team Nobic admits that they're feeling it as well, as Chigrinsky is seen dropping his tray of water. Soon enough, all of Team Nobic falls asleep with Chigrinsky being the only one left still awake. Chigrinsky begins to laugh calling Team Nobic a group of idiots for falling to his act so easily. Claiming that he provided them a powerful narcotic through the water drinks, Chigrinsky states that while fighting is forbidden in the buildings hallways, that's not the case for inside the rooms.

Claiming that Team Nobic still doesn't understand the true terror of Name Hunt Station, Chigrinsky calls out the sleeping Team Nobic as people who believed they would be able to escape from here unharmed despite having a Boss name. Walking up to the sleeping Sia, Chigrinsky states that from here on out, Team Nobic will officially be his servants. As a result of acquiring Team Nobic, Chigrinsky believes that with their power, it will easily allow for him to become one of the Ten Bosses.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_28.png
Hatz kills Chigrinsky before the latter could steal away Team Nobic's names

Chigrinsky states that this time around, he will be the one that will make everyone who's looked down on him bow before Chigrinsky. Believing that this will allow him to reclaim his true name, Chigrinsky puts his hand on Sia's back. Giving off a laugh admitting that he can't wait, the announcement is made that Chigrinsky has made contact with Sia, and that the ten second name-stealing process has now begun.

Seconds 1, 2, and 3, pass as Chigrinsky claims that once Sia has woken up, she will be forced to call him as her master. Seconds 4, 5, and 6, then pass as Beta is seen from Sia's lighthouse trying to communicate to his still sleeping team. Seconds 7, and 8, pass as Chigrinsky licks his lips wondering what he should make Sia do first. He figures that the best options would be to either make her bark like a dog like what Hesse did to him, to make her like his feet clean, or even make her dance naked.

Second 9 passes, but at this point, his thought gets interrupted by the arrival of Hatz, who quickly cuts off Chigrinsky's head from his body. As Anaak is seen arriving as support, Hatz taunts the Chigrinsky he just killed that he should order Team Nobic to get rid of his dead body. Hatz continues to taunt Chigrinsky's corpse that the reason for the order is because the former doesn't want to touch the bodies of people who are shown to be perverted freaks.

Moments later, Ran begins hearing the voices of Team Shibisu speaking in the room nearby. Hatz states that he knew something weird was going on, so he chose to stop by Team Nobic's room to check on them. Shibisu asks if the corpse of the Chigrinsky guy was one of the Ten Bosses minions, which Hatz answers to be the case. Unable to believe how torn up Chigrinsky's body ended up, Shibisu notes how Beta appears to be within one of Sia's lighthouses. At this point, Shibisu sees that Ran has woken up. Shibisu states to Ran that it's been a long time since they've last seen one another, and notes how it appears that Chigrinsky's sleeping pills didn't have much of an effect on a member from the Great Khun Family. Shibisu asks Ran to help them clean up the current mess pointing the latter towards the separated body and head of Chigrinsky.

Some time after, Sia is seen still snoozing away as Dan has finally woken up as well. He and Ran move the wrapped up remains of Chigrinsky to another spot in the room as Dan complains that he still feels a bit numb from the sleeping pill. Dan admits to Ran that he never expected Chigrinsky would drug their cups of water, and deduces that they let down their guards due to how weak the guy looked, which Ran nods in agreement.

    Team Shibisu at Name Hunt Station 

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_29.png
Shibisu explains how stealing Hesse's name has put Team Nobic in danger

Dropping off Chigrinsky's body at the side of the room, Dan and Ran return to the rest of their team. Shibisu, Hatz, and Anaak, take a seat opposite Nobic, which Shibisu explains that he figured Team Nobic was going to get into a bit of trouble after they managed to steal away Hesse of the Ten Bosses name. He also warns Nobic that the latter's team shouldn't get too comfortable here like they did just now since having a Boss name is going to continue bringing them danger. In return, Nobic admits that he's ashamed of his own carelessness just now since he hasn't been as wary of his surroundings ever since Khun left the team. Praying towards Chigrinsky's corpse to rest in peace, Nobic admits that he can't deny any criticism that Team Shibisu has towards him.

Anaak is seen touching Shibisu's head with her foot as the latter reassures Nobic not to blame himself too much since being suspicious of everything is something only Khun is capable of doing. Shibisu then asks how Bam's group is doing on the Hell Train, which Nobic explains that since his team is the only ones that have arrived at Name Hunt Station by climbing up the Tower the normal way, Shibisu's team will surely see all his old friends coming off the express real soon. Shibisu replies back that Team Nobic doesn't appear to have changed much, but Nobic asks why the former's team is here at a Hell Train station since he heard that Team Shibisu isn't going after the express. Giving off a regretful look, Shibisu answers that it's because something rather complicated came up regarding the Jahad Princess in their team.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_30.png
Endorsi and Lauroe take on Marte of the Ten Bosses

At another location of Name Hunt Station, Endorsi is seen teleporting in at a high location in the air above a group of similar looking Regulars using her Bong Bong fairy. The similar looking Regulars all wearing the same glasses all look up confused by what they're looking at as they see Endorsi carrying Lauroe drop down towards them all. Endorsi kicks the first Regular away as all the other similar looking ones charge towards her. They attempt to grab at Endorsi's foot seeing that she's trying to get away by running upwards, but Endorsi kicks their hands away asking how they would dare to go so far as to why to grab a lady's ankle without her permission.

Throwing Lauroe towards them all, Endorsi orders them to catch the Snorlax instead. Lauroe, who's still rolled up in his blanket, ends up getting slammed into a group of the similar looking Regulars knocking them all back. At this point, a large purple octopus-like Regular appears before Endorsi. Known as Marte the Octopus Woman, and a member of the Ten Bosses, Marte asks if Endorsi is one of the Boss Hunters who's appeared on the station recently. In return, Endorsi finds the Boss Hunter nickname amusing, and asks if that's the cheesy name that the people of the station as decided to call Team Shibisu.

Endorsi scolds Marte and company that this all happened because of this little station game of theirs where they go about playing Ten Bosses as if they're some fake version of the Ten Great Families. She also points out how gross it is that some sort of octopus woman has appeared before her. One of the similar looking Regulars orders Endorsi not to mock Lady Marte since she's known as the one who has the most servants amongst the Ten Bosses, but Endorsi orders him to shut up by throwing one her her needles at his head. She scolds the group of Regulars for all dressing in the same uniform just to suck up to the monster octopus woman all for the sake of gaining some stupid names.

Creating another needle, Endorsi licks her lips ready to continue fighting, and taunts the similar looking Regulars that Marte would be able to turn all men into slaves if she was a real woman, but given that she's not, it's obvious that their master Boss is low-leveled. She orders Marte's similar looking servants to bring it on as she plans to make a hole in each of their foreheads so that they finally realize who they all should truly be serving. Seeing Marte's servants not charging forward, Endorsi decides to head over to them instead. Flying towards them using the Bong Bong fairy, Endorsi starts kicking some in the head, as well as throwing needles of the foreheads of several others. Blood from the Regulars she just killed shoots out in all directions as Endorsi continues her slaughter through the group of Marte's similar looking servants.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_31.png
Shibisu explains how it's becoming harder to climb the Tower alongside Anaak

Returning to Nobic's room, he asks Shibisu what he means by a problem concerning their team's Princess, which Shibisu explains that climbing up the Tower with Anaak is becoming even more of a problem the higher up they climb. Shibisu reminds Nobic that Anaak isn't a legitimate Jahad Princess, but had the power of Jahad passed down to her given that the original Princess Anaak Jahad broke the Jahad Empire's rule be choosing to have a child. As a result, the current child Anaak is seen as a pain in the neck to Jahad and company. Anaak's Fake Princess identity was then revealed over to a Ranker assassin named Lo Po Bia Ren, who infiltrated the Floor of Tests in an attempt to kill off Anaak. Due to Ren's failure to kill her back then, the Lo Po Bia family has begun to raise Anaak's continued existence as an issue to the Tower.

Shibisu continues to explain that the Jahad Family hasn't interfered yet due to this being a matter concerning just mere Regulars. However, it's become clear that they aren't pleased with how Endorsi has chosen to side with Anaak to help the latter climb the Tower. Shibisu explains that being a Jahad Princess means that you're a part of a competitive system. A system where after being miraculously chosen as a Jahad Princess, they enter the Tower, and must fight against other Princesses to come out on top as they all go about climbing up the Tower. As a result, Endorsi has been put at a disadvantage not only having to deal with the Princess competition, but having to deal with enemies who will come after Anaak as well.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_32.png
The twin Lo Po Bia Princesses of the top-3 D-rank Regulars, Lilial and Shilial

To add to Endorsi's problems, Shibisu reveals to Team Nobic that they've recently discovered how two twin Jahad Princesses are currently climbing the Tower together. These two Princesses being known as Lilial Jahad and Shilial Jahad, and that the two of them together are considered as one of the top-3 D-rank Regulars alongside Sachi Faker and Kaiser. However, Shibisu points out how the reason the two of them have become a problem is because Lilial and Shilial originate from the Lo Po Bia Family. The same family that the Ren assassin who went after Anaak is from.

Anaak continues to poke at Shibisu's head with her feet as Shibisu explains that it's obvious that the twin Lo Po Bia Princesses are currently on the move to make sure that their competitor, Endorsi, is no longer able to climb the Tower, and if they succeed in doing so, it will easily allow Lilial and Shilial to become C-Rank Regulars. The fact that Anaak is connected to Endorsi just makes it a lot more easier for the twins to prey on her. Shibisu also adds that Endorsi should be able to protect herself given the fact that she has the power of Jahad, but he admits that he's worried that if the Lo Po Bia Family continues to act against them, it will get to a point where he can no longer guarantee the safety of Anaak or the rest of his team.

Soon enough, Princess Lilial would end up contacting Team Shibisu, and proposed a game for Endorsi. That if she managed to steal away Kaiser's name at the 39th Floor station, they would not only call off the Lo Po Bia Family from interfering with Anaak any further, but would also hand over the life the previous assassin (Ren) who tried to kill her. The offer surprises Nobic hearing that the Lo Po Bia Family is willing to kill off one of their Rankers, which Anaak agrees sounded like an absurd deal, and had come to the conclusion that something about all this was too suspicious.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_33.png
Anaak explains that Endorsi came to the station to protect her from Lo Po Bia

Anaak explains that even though the Lo Po Bia Family are enemies of her dead mother, she warned Endorsi not to accept the challenge since it sounded like such an obvious trap. Shibisu adds that in the end, Endorsi ended up accepting it anyway, and because of Endorsi's choice, they're now all at Name Hunt Station.

Pressing her foot against Shibisu's head even harder, Anaak yells out how annoyed she is that she was opposed to coming here from the beginning, and yet she's been forced to stand by and watch Endorsi pretend that she cares about her. Anaak also points out how the only real reason that Endorsi has decided to come to Name Hunt Station is because the Hell Train will be arriving around the same time. Wanting Anaak to stop pressing against his head, Shibisu admits that he gets it. Shibisu then gets back on topic, and informs Team Nobic that while Team Shibisu has been investigating the station, they came across a shocking secret that has been hidden at this station, which catches Team Nobic's attention.

Back to Endorsi's station location, she has finished up defeating the rest of Marte's servants, who lie on the ground as corpses. Dragging Lauroe along with her, Endorsi taunts Marte that the octopus woman is the only one left now. Stepping on the heads of her dead servants, Endorsi scolds Marte for surrounding herself with pathetic idiots who are completely useless. Endorsi then asks if Marte is happy cleaning up the mess left behind by the Tower's higher-ups as long as she gets to be treated as a queen here, which confuses Marte. Stating that she knows the station's secret, Endorsi reveals to Marte how she knows that Name Hunt Station is known as a famous Regulars Disposal Facility for the Tower families.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_34.png
Endorsi explains how Name Hunt Station disposes of troublesome Regulars

Endorsi explains how she knows that the mission to bring Kaiser's name is nothing but a secret passcode amongst certain families. The point of families offering the mission is to get rid of certain Regulars that they've come to not like, and reminds Marte of how there's never been a single person to ever complete the quest to steal away Kaiser's name.

In the end, all of those people that the families ended up sending off to Name Hunt Station using the mission to steal away Kaiser's name ended up either becoming a no-name or a named servant to someone else. Endorsi adds how since Name Hunt Station is a legal slavery pyramid system amongst Regulars, no one ever says anything about it, and Rankers would never need to get involved since it's a simple D-rank station of the 39th Floor.

Continuing the explanation to Marte, Endorsi states that the families never intended to keep their end of the deal to reward anyone that brings back Kaiser's name since they don't believe anyone will be capable of doing it. However, Endorsi points out how it's amusing to her that Kaiser and the Ten Bosses are actually siding with the families to continue this stunt at Name Hunt Station. Endorsi reveals how her team found out that Kaiser and the Ten Bosses receive ransom money from the Ten Great Families who wish to have children returned to them that have wandered into the station by accident.

She also points out how given that the Ten Great Families haven't killed off Kaiser and the Ten Bosses yet for forcing the families to pay ransoms, the only logical conclusion is that Jahad and the Ten Great Families believe that Name Hunt Station is necessary for the Tower. Endorsi calls out Kaiser and the Ten Bosses for being nothing more than filthy hounds who dispose of pesky Regulars for the Ten Great Families, which an enraged Marte yells that she's heard enough.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_35.png
Endorsi kills Marte utilizing an attack from her Bong Bong fairy

The station Boss sends her purple tentacles at Endorsi, but the Princess uses Lauroe as a shield to get wrapped up by Marte's tentacles instead of her. Endorsi then quickly jumps up using the Bong Bong fairy, and throws one of her longer red needles at Marte claiming that bad guys are always forced to fighting when they've run out of things to say. The needle stabs into Marte's neck as Endorsi taunts the station Boss if the octopus has enjoyed her time being treated as a queen here. Green blood pours from Marte's neck, but she manages to grab hold of Endorsi with her tentacles.

The station Boss reminds Endorsi that she's an octopus woman, so getting stabbed in the throat isn't going to be enough to kill her. Marte begins to squeeze her tentacles hard to squish Endorsi, which the latter admits that the station Boss is proving to be a tough one. Marte admits that she won't be powerful enough to strangle Endorsi to death, but she can still hold on just long enough to steal away the Jahad Princesses name. The station Boss begins to laugh reminding Endorsi that while she's one of the weaker Ten Bosses, she still managed to claim that title thanks to her tentacles. Before she could claim once more that she's going to steal Endorsi's name, the Jahad Princess orders the octopus to let go.

Claiming that Marte's tentacles are disgusting, Endorsi uses 10% output from her Bong Bong fairy to slice apart the station boss into pieces with a blast of shinsu; effectively killing Marte. Endorsi returns to the ground, and apologizes to the corpse of Marte of the Ten Bosses that she actually doesn't have a name to give even if she wanted to. Thinking things over, Endorsi puts together that with the four Team Shibisu have now defeated, as well as the one killed by Team Nobic, there are now only five of the Ten Bosses remaining.

Returning to Team Nobic's no-name lodge room, Nobic goes over Shibisu's story that he knows the basics of it all. That Name Hunt Station is a place where the higher-ups in power legally imprison Regulars, and that Team Shibisu is currently being forced to fight here because Endorsi fell for the plan set by the twin Lo Po Bia Princesses. Nobic asks if this is why Team Shibisu has chosen to defeat Kaiser and the Ten Bosses, which Shibisu admits that while everything will be ok if they manage to get Kaiser's name, it's not going to be an easy task.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_36.png
Shibisu reveals that Endorsi was defeated by Kaiser, and lost her name

Shibisu points out how amongst the Ten Bosses, his team has found out that about three of the station Bosses are actually really powerful. He then goes over their main problem, which is Kaiser. Shibisu explains that they don't know Kaiser's real name, or even his date of birth, but have come to the conclusion that Kaiser has intentionally settled at Name Hunt Station under the orders of someone else. He warns Team Nobic that they don't know much about Kaiser's abilities since the warlord has managed to rule Name Hunt Station for 1000 years without having his name stolen. However, Shibisu states that the one thing he knows for sure is that someone released the Kaiser monster at this station for some clear purpose.

Continuing his explanation, Shibisu states that they didn't take the Kaiser mission seriously at first, but when his team arrived at Name Hunt Station, something odd happened. He reveals that Kaiser had actually invited Endorsi up to his chamber, which confuses Team Nobic. Shibisu explains that Kaiser challenged Endorsi to a duel after the latter arrived at the Gallery chamber, which Endorsi ended up obviously accepting. He states that Endorsi ended up putting her real name on the line since no matter what, the Jahad Princess title can't be taken away, even through the rules of Name Hunt Station. However, Shibisu reveals that after their duel was over, it was Endorsi that came out the loser, which surprised the members of Team Nobic.

Team Nobic asks if what they just heard is correct that a Jahad Princess lost, which Shibisu answers to be the case, and that Endorsi is actually someone who had lost her name to Kaiser. Meanwhile at Endorsi's location, she's seen getting some rest using Lauroe as a pillow, and looks up at the sky surrounded by the dead servants of Marte. She asks herself how much longer it's going to take for Bam to get here.

    Wangnan's Team Going After Cassano 

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_37.png
Bam returns to his companions after his latest Rice Pot training

The next day in Hell Train bedroom for Bam, Khun, and Rak, Khun is seen putting necessary items into his lighthouse for the trip to Name Hunt Station such as emergency food, cloths, vitamins, and first-aid medicine. He questions if this will all be enough as Rak asks for him to put a batch of bananas in it as well. However, Khun warns him to forget about it since he doesn't wish to take any perishables to the station, and figures that at this point, they should just get as much sleep as they can until they arrive at the 39th Floor station. Rak holds up the batch of bananas before Khun claiming that it's great food, but Khun ignores it worrying about how much longer it will take for Bam to return.

Seeing his Pocket reading 11:15pm, Khun deduces that they will be at Name Hunt Station once the night is over, and that once they arrive, they will only have two days at most while the Hell Train is docked on the 39th Floor station to steal away Kaiser's name. He's left worrying that Bam won't be able to return with Kaiser's name in time if he continues to remain at the Rice Pot. Khun thinks over how Bam has been acting really strange lately as if the latter has been in a completely differen't world, and wonders if it has something to do with the Rice Pot Revolution he's been undertaking. He questions if this means that the Rice Pot is a lot more dangerous than he originally thought, and begins to regret not stopping Bam from entering the Rice Pot.

At this point, the door to the Hell Train bedroom opens up showing that Bam has returned from the Rice Pot. Khun is glad to see that Bam has returned, which the latter admits that it seems that he has. Seeing Bam's tired looking face, Khun asks if something happened, which Bam answers that it's nothing apart from just being a bit tired.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_38.png
Bam and company rejoin Yuri to begin the Name Hunt Station mission

Walking by Khun and Rak, Bam states that they should best get some sleep since tomorrow will be a big day trying to steal away Kaiser's name at Name Hunt Station. Heading for the bed, Bam states once more that he's feeling a bit tired as Khun and Rak remain confused as to what just happened.

During the night, Bam, Khun, and Rak are now asleep in their Hell Train bedroom where Rak is seen having fallen off the bed to sleep between Bam and Khun's beds. However, Khun and Rak are the only ones snoring away as Bam is seen to actually still be awake thinking back to how the Power called him out as someone who devoured the billion souls that were given to him. Thinking it over, Bam clenches his fist in frustration.

The next day on the Hell Train comes as Bam and company are seen regrouping with Yuri and Evan. Yuri asks if the group managed to sleep well, and reminds them that today is the day where they will all be arriving at Name Hunt Station. However, Yuri and Evan notice how the group looks smaller than before. Standing before them are Bam, Khun, Rak, Hwaryun, Boro, Sachi, Danhwa, and Cherry.

Yuri mentions how she was sure that there were more who wanted to go previously, which Khun explains that Blarode and Quaetro left with the White Heavenly Mirror in order to talk with the two sealed people, Buelsar and Raguel, that were left behind by Team Rachel. He also reveals that the candy girl, Bero, chose to stay behind on the Hell Train in order to look after the clone-girl of a billion souls. Turning his attention to the five members of Team Tangsooyook having a meeting, Wangnan also informs Yuri that it appears Wangnan's group have also encountered some sort of problem.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_39.png
Wangnan orders Tangsooyook to stay on the Hell Train to hunt down Cassano

Wangnan finishes explaining the situation to his teammates, which surprises them hearing that they're not going to be following Viole to Name Hunt Station. Wangnan repeats himself that they aren't, and that they are actually going to stay on the Hell Train in order to continue the hunt for Cassano. Prince remains confused by the idea reminding Wangnan that even though they know Rachel's team are headed for the 43rd Floor of Death, they have no information at all regarding how to locate them in the Hell Train. However, Wangnan answers that it helps that they know Team Rachel needs to stay on the Hell Train to get there, and asks his team to continue trusting him since he has a plan to capture Cassano.

Continuing the explanation, Wangnan states that he doesn't like being delayed since it just continues to make him remember how Horyang is currently stuck in a coma. Stating that there's no reason to wait all the way until the 43rd Floor of Death, Wangnan makes it clear to his teammates that they're going to catch Cassano by themselves no matter what it takes. Wangnan then thinks over what Hwaryun told him earlier that one of his teammates is sure to die the longer he stays on the Hell Train. Still wishing to save Horyang, Wangnan reassures himself that he doesn't want a path that will lead to death, and will get off the Hell Train after obtaining Cassano before any of his teammates dies. Wangnan states to his team once more that they're not going to get off at Name Hunt Station.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_40.png
Wangnan orders Ehwa to leave the team so that she can climb the Tower with Viole

However, he asks for Ehwa to rejoin with Viole, which shocks Ehwa as to why only her should go. Wangnan answers that it's because Ehwa is someone who can continue to help Viole, and announces that Ehwa will officially depart from Team Tangsooyook in order to continue climbing the Tower with the Slayer Candidate. He states that given how strong he knows Ehwa to be, Wangnan believes that Ehwa can definitely climb the Tower with Viole. Before Ehwa could object, Wangnan announces that Team Tangsooyook's meeting is officially over.

Before getting the opinion of anyone else from Team Tangsooyook, Wangnan approaches Bam and Khun stating that he has something to tell Viole. Bam and Khun remain silent as Wangnan explains that Team Tangsooyook has decided to stay on the Hell Train in order to find Cassano, which surprises the former two. Khun points out that Team Rachel isn't the kind of bunch that are just going to show themselves before Wangnan's team, which Wangnan answers that they will definitely come out of hiding if it's just his Tangsooyook team. He also points out that Hoaqin will no doubt appear given that said Slayer Candidate hasn't had the chance to eat anyone recently.

Wangnan continues to explain that his team can definitely lure Team Rachel out since they are people who are also looking for companions of Viole. He assures Bam and Khun that all they need to do is capture Cassano, and run away from the rest of Team Rachel once they've accomplished that.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_41.png
Bam's and Wangnan's teams part ways

Khun thinks this plan over, and admits that baiting them out sounds like a plausible plan, but points out how the current Tangsooyook team is too weak to capture Cassano on their own. He advises Wangnan for them all to go as an entire group, but Wangnan assures him that they will find a way to make this work on their own.

Looking a bit saddened, Wangnan reminds Bam and Khun that his Tangsooyook team has only been a burden to them so far that they couldn't even prove to be of any use during their battles against Hoaqin. As a result, Wangnan figures that for the best of both teams, they should go their separate ways here. Wangnan adds that he's also begun to worry that once they reach the 43rd Floor of Death, his Tangsooyook team will only end up getting in the way of Viole and company again. Bam thinks thinks over, and briefly recalls his conversation with the Power. He states to Wangnan that he understands Wangnan's decision, and lets him do what he wants since they don't have much of a choice at this point, which shocks Khun.

Bam states that the only logical answer is to allow Wangnan to do what he sees best, and reminds the Tangsooyook leader that he's also been worried about Horyang's current comatose state. Bam also adds that they both have something they need to keep protecting, which makes Wangnan feel a bit better knowing that he's hearing Viole say these kind of things. Turning around to leave, Wangnan gives his goodbye statin that it will probably be hard to reunite on the Hell Train again once Bam and company finish their mission at Name Hunt Station. Hwaryun watches Wangnan depart as he leaves off saying to them to make sure that they return with Kaiser's name. Following Wangnan's departure, Khun asks if Bam is ok with this, which the latter answers that he is. Bam tells Khun that the reason he came to this decision is because the Floor of Death is a dangerous place, and that they won't be able to take everyone there.

    Team Bam Enters Name Hunt Station 

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_42.png
The Hell Train arrives at the 39th Floor's Name Hunt Station

A moment later, Ehwa runs up to Bam asking if Viole has really decided to just send off his former Tangsooyook companions like that. She asks if Viole is worried that something may happen to them, which Bam answers that Wangnan's team needs to take responsibility with his own strength similar to how Bam and company have been doing so, which shocks Ehwa. At that point, Yuri calls out to the remaining members of Bam's group to quiet down since they don't have any time left to stop people from leaving. The Hell Train is seen about to arrive at Name Hunt Station.

Poro Poe, who's acting as the current Train Conductor after Pedro's death, informs the current Hell Train riders from the control room that the gates are opening since they're about to dock at the 39th Floor station. The gate at the side of the Hell Train opens next to Yuri, who reminds Bam and company that they have until the train departs tomorrow to bring her back Kaiser's name. As Bam's group make their way through the exit gate, Yuri asks Evan if her words just now made her look like a Test Supervisor, which Evan realizes that the Princess wanted to try it once. About to exit the Hell Train, Khun asks Bam why the latter has changed attitude recently since the previous Bam would have never let Wangnan's team go off on their own.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_43.png
The billion devoured souls beg Bam to avenge them by killing Hoaqin

Khun explains that he's not objecting to the decision, but figures that it has something to do with what happened at the Rice Pot, and warns Bam that keeping that information to himself will only poison him over time. Thinking it over, Bam decides to tell him everything that went down during his second visit to the Rice Pot a day ago.

Still unconscious within the Rice Pot, Bam finds it unbelievable that the golden ball of light beside the Power is actually the billion souls he ended up devouring. Bam remains confused as to what the ball of light is supposed to be, and questions if it's actually not his true strength that the God of Guardians keeps mentioning that Bam has within himself. Suddenly, people begin to appear out of the ball of light continuously saying that what happened to them is unfair, and begin to swarm towards where Bam is standing. They ask for Bam to kill Hoaqin for them, and to avenge them for what he did. Seeing all the souls coming towards him, Bam figures that they all must be the billion people that were sacrificed by Hoaqin. They beg Bam to now allow them to disappear.

Giving off a laugh, the Power asks if Bam now understands that the boy's strength is the ability to devour anything. The Power explains that Bam will continue to get stronger as long as he continues to absorb the powers of others, and make them his own. It also points out how even the resentment of a billion dead souls was nothing more than a simple snack for Bam due to how unlimited his devouring ability is. The Power states that Bam's abilities isn't generosity that embraces everything, but is actually nothing more than merciless gluttony.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_44.png
The Power calls out Bam for stomping on others who weren't chosen by him

It explains how the Tower is governed by the law of the jungle where people will always have to step over the bodies of others to reach the top of it. As a result, the Power asks how Bam, who feeds on others, doesn't see himself as a monster perfectly suited for the Tower.

The Power states that Bam is different in that he destroys the rules of the Towers compared to everyone else who becomes a part of it. It scolds Bam that the choices he made isn't always the correct one, and that he's gained strength through the sacrifice of others be it the Thorn, or the fuel provided by Hoaqin's billion dead souls. The Power then calls out Bam as someone who's wasting such a great power only to protect his current group of friends, and points out that doing so is no different than sacrificing his friends to always be protected by someone else. It warns the boy that even though he's been comforting himself by keeping everyone safe so far, his actions have only resulted in stomping over others that weren't chosen to be protected by Bam. The Power leaves off saying that such a justice that Bam dreams off is something that's not within him, which shocks Bam.

Meanwhile, the God of Guardians continues to watch over Bam while the boy remains unconscious within the Rice Pot. However, something odd happens, which confuses the God of Guardians witnessing Bam force himself back awake. The event leaves the God of Guardians stunned in disbelief seeing that Bam was capable of breaking the Rice Pot's powerful spell that was keeping the boy asleep.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_45.png
Bam hoping that the 43rd Floor of Death will provide him answers as to who he is

Bam remains breathing heavily in exhaustion as he thinks back to the Power's last words that the justice he dreams of isn't something that's within him. Remembering the Power's words causes Bam to clench his fists in frustration.

Returning to the present, Khun states that he had no idea this was going through Bam's mind after hearing the Rice Pot story. Khun asks if the unknown power within Bam has something to do with how the latter has the ability to absorb the skills of other people since the clone-girl of a billion souls also considered it a strange ability. However, Bam answers that he's not sure of it either as to what the power within himself is supposed to be.

Bam explains that he's started to wonder if he's been abusing the power he has without consideration of the things around him. A power he hasn't even begun to comprehend just for the sake of protecting his friends. Bam reminds Khun that if Hwaryun's prophecy is true, they will get to see Wangnan again, but he's decided that it's about time to look for answers of his own in order to finally find out about his true-self. Looking down at Name Hunt Station, Bam announces that he plans to go to the 43rd Floor of Death in order to find clues as to who he truly is. Khun admits that he now understands Bam's thought, and reminds him that their first order of business is to retrieve Kaiser's name, which Bam agrees since they won't get Yuri's permission to go to the Floor of Death without it.

Agreeing that it's a nice and simple mission to get what they want, Khun gives the order for them to get moving towards the station. Yuri calls out to Bam saying that she's opposed to him going to the 43rd Floor of Death, but asks him to come back in one piece by not pushing himself too hard. Bam replies back that he will be sure to return with Kaiser's name, which leaves Yuri glad to see that Bam's subbornness hasn't changed one bit. At that same time within Name Hunt Station, the announcement is heard by everyone that the Hell Train has finally arrived here, which catches Team Nobic's attention.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_46_1.png
Bam's group exits the Hell Train as Viole's arrival is announced to the station

Shibisu wonders if this means that Bam's group is finally here as the announcer asks for any Regulars holding Express Tickets to be sure to board the Hell Train by tomorrow, which is when it's scheduled to leave. Endorsi continues to listen closely as well, which the announcer continues by stating that a group of Regulars are now entering Name Hunt Station.

The announcer asks for everyone of name Hunt Station to listen to the names of the Regulars who are about to appear as Endorsi opens her room's window to see if Bam and company have finally arrived. Bam's group make their way down the platform staircase outside the Hell Train as they're about to be greeted by bear-men defenders blocking their entrance into the station similar to the ones that fought against Team Nobic.

The announcer reads off the names of the newly arrived Regulars as Rak Wraithraiser, Phonsekal Iruroe (Cherry La's real name), Boro, Yeon Ehwa of the Great Yeon Family, Sachi Faker of the top-3 D-rankers, Khun Aguero Agnis of the Great Khun Family, and the Slayer Candidate, Jue Viole Grace. Hwaryun and Danhwa are also seen entering the station with Bam's group.

Within the Gallery chamber, Kaiser is left shocked hearing that FUG's Jue Viole Grace has arrived at Name Hunt Station. Two other girls, revealed to be the Lo Po Bia Princess twins, are seen with Kaiser. The red-head twin mentions how Jue Viole Grace is apparently that Slayer Candidate who disappeared after the E-rank Workshop Battle. The yellow-head twin adds how there also appears to be two members from the Great Families, as well as Sachi of the top-3 D-rankers, amongst the group coming off the Hell Train. She then states to Kaiser and her red-head twin that things are about to get interesting due to the arrival of an incredible group of people.

    Return of Viole 

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_47.png
Sachi warns Bam that a Regular at the station knows his Viole identity

Returning to Bam's location, a group of bear-men block his and his companion's bridge path towards the Name Hunt Station entrance. Khun asks if the bear-men are suppose to be some sort of welcome for them getting off the Hell Train, which Bam agrees is probably the case. Bam also asks Khun if the latter heard correctly regarding the name that was announced just now, which Khun admits that he did indeed hear Jue Viole Grace. Khun states that it's strange that Bam's Slayer Candidate name would be announced considering that Jue Viole Grace was supposed to have been deleted from the Tower following the E-rank Workshop Battle. Checking his Pocket, Khun informs Bam that his identity still reads as 25th Bam instead of Viole.

Using his thorn shinsu to immobilize the bear-men, Sachi states that the only logical explanation is that someone currently within Name Hunt Station knows Bam's FUG identity. Bam and Khun turn their attention to Sachi, who explains to the two of them that since Name Hunt Station is controlled by Regulars rather than Ranker Supervisors, there's no real consequence for someone to announce to everyone here that Bam is Viole. Khun asks if what Sachi is implying is that someone currently at Name Hunt Station knows of Bam's identity as Jue Viole Grace, which Sachi answers that it's a given since the person announcing their names to the station is simply reading off the names of newcomers from a Pocket.

As Hwaryun and Ehwa look at the immobilized bear-men thinking they're cute, Khun admits that he can't believe this since Bam's FUG persona is supposed to be top secret. He asks how someone on the station has managed to find out such information, which Sachi answers that they'll find out once they've entered the station.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_48.png
Anaak threatens the station announcer to announce Viole's arrival and revolution

Sachi warns Bam and company that they had best get moving much quicker since there's now a greater chance of having attention drawn to them due to Viole's announcement. Khun agrees with the top-3 D-ranker as Bam's group prepare to fight towards the station.

At that same time back in Team Nobic's room at the no-name lodge, Sia is seen trying to shake Ran back awake to inform him that Viole has arrived with the Hell Train. She yells at him that they need to get their plan started, which Ran, who's still trying to regain his strength, agreed to follow along. He's left wondering if Team Shibisu are really going to go through with such a ridiculous plan. Meanwhile, corpses of no-names are seen scattered throughout a hallway of the no-name lodge leading up to a room known as the studio.

Within the studio, Anaak is seen holding her hook weapon up to a blue-skinned Regular, who is the person that has been announcing the names of the people that have arrived at Name Hunt Station. Anaak congratulates the announcer she's threatening to kill for a job well done stating that spending the last several centuries saying names of newcomers has finally paid off. She also adds how amazing it is that the announcer can read off the names without even the slightest tremble in his voice given that he's currently got his life on the line.

The announcer asks what Anaak is after, and asks why she forced her to call the boy as Jue Viole Grace despite the fact that on his Pocket, it reads as 25th Bam. Anaak answers that it's alright given that Bam is someone who has two names, which confuses the announcer. She then threatens to kill the announcer once more by pulling a hole in his throat if he doesn't make the announcements she tells him to say from now on, which causes the announcer to sweat in fear. Anaak asks for the announcer to say that Jue Viole Grace, the Slayer Candidate of FUG, has arrived to free the station from Kaiser.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_49.png
Rak clears the path to the station using his Mad Shocker spear

The order leaves the announcer shocked as Anaak continues to threaten him. She next orders for the announcer to say to everyone on the station that those who wish to reclaim their names should go outside, and join up with Jue Viole Grace's revolution.

Back to the location of Bam's group, Khun warns everyone to be careful as they won't be able to make it to Name Hunt Station if they destroy the bridge they're currently on. The group agree to do so as Sachi uses his thorn shinsu to hold the immobilized bear-men up in the air so that his teammates can finish them off in one shot. Sachi's vines pull the closest group of bear-men high up into the air as Rak is ordered to attack, which Rak yells out that he's already doing it pulling out his Mad Shocker spear. He throws the spear towards the bear-men which not only defeats the ones immobilized by Sachi, but also continues to zig-zag forwards knocking off all the other bear-men along the path, which amazes Khun seeing that they've already cleared a path.

Before moving forward, Hwaryun warns Bam and company that they're getting a bit overexcited due to how dangerous this station is. Khun replies back that he's done the research before coming here, and agrees that this truly is a frightening place. Acting like a teacher, Khun explains how Name Hunt Station works to Bam and company. That it's a station containing a clear system of governance centered around its leader, Kaiser. After Kaiser is her most loyal subordinates who help maintain grip over the named and no-named known as the Ten Bosses. Basically, it goes Kaiser, to the Ten Bosses, to the named, and then the no-named. Khun also adds that people who are no-named are those who had their names stolen, and are never allowed to leave Name Hunt Station until they can reclaim it.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_50.png
Khun explains the set-up of Name Hunt Station to Bam and company

Continuing the explanation, Khun states that it appears the Ten Bosses are most likely based off of the Ten Great Families, who serve as the ruling class of Name Hunt Station as servants of their version of Jahad, who would be Kaiser. However, Khun provides the bad news that the biggest problem they're going to be dealing with is the need to steal away all the names of the Ten Bosses before being able to challenge Kaiser. Bam asks what he means by that, which Khun repeats himself that due to the rules of this place, they can only truly face Kaiser if they manage to get all the names of the Ten Bosses by tomorrow. Meaning that they will have to run around the entire station searching for the people known as the Ten Bosses before they can do their true mission by stealing away Kaiser's name.

Bam and company make their way along the bridge that had been cleared of the bear-men, which Ehwa notes how dangerous this looks given how thin the bridge is. Khun warns the group of another issue they may come across that along with their group, there may be other teams currently at Name Hunt Station trying to steal away Kaiser's name. As a result, they will no doubt be unable to avoid having to compete against them as well. Reaching the Name Hunt Station entrance, Sia calls out to them as a greeting, which grabs everyone's attention.

Sia runs up to Bam and company glad to see that they've made it safely, and asks if they found Rachel, which Khun answers that they sort of did. Seeing that Sia is here at Name Hunt Station, Khun quickly deduces that this can only mean that Team Nobic climbed the Tower up to the 39th Floor station to try to board the Hell Train. Hearing muffled voices coming from Sia's nearby lighthouse, Khun realizes that Beta is currently here as well. He figures that Beta's words are either that the guy is happy to see him, or he wants Khun to die.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_51.png
Sia greets Bam and company at the Name Hunt Station entrance

Pulling out her Pocket with a message asking Khun to hand over money, Sia orders Khun to pay up the unpaid wages. Khun finds the order unbelievable seeing that Sia would bring up money the moment they've reunited. He warns Sia that she's going to go bald if she keeps this up, which enrages Sia to the point of reminding Khun that money is the most important thing to her. Sia complains that she's been unable to get paid due to Khun being stuck on the Hell Train, and reminds him that she will only work as long as she receives money. Giving up, Khun moves his Pocket next to Sia's to begin the money transfer, which Sia thanks him for.

A moment later, Sia is seen in the back excited by her money gain as Sachi asks the group if she also happens to be one of Bam's companions. Khun answers that this is the case, which means that the rest of Team Nobic must be close by. He's left wondering if Team Nobic being here means that they were the one's responsible for the Viole announcement earlier, but is suddenly interrupted by Sia, who informs Bam and company that something huge is about to happen on Name Hunt Station.

Some time later, Bam and company are now on one of the station's transport platforms being moved towards the island platform for the no-names by Sia controlling the transport platform with her lighthouse. She finishes explaining the current situation to the group, which shocks them upon hearing that Endorsi lost her name to Kaiser. Sia assures them that this is the case, but also informs them that Team Shibisu doesn't have much detail on this since they never saw the battle between Kaiser and Endorsi themselves.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_52.png
Sia reveals that Team Nobic is helping Team Shibisu get Endorsi's name back

Sia leaves off pointing out that the one thing they all know for sure is that Endorsi lost her name to Kaiser. Khun thinks it over already finding it surprising that Team Shibisu has decided to appear at Name Hunt Station, but also finds it unbelievable that an event as large as Endorsi losing her name has now happened. Bam is left worried about her as Boro interrupts asking if he truly just heard that they know Princess Endorsi Jahad. He tells them that he's crazy about her given how pretty Endorsi is, which leaves Khun and Bam struggling to reply back. Sia is left disgusted by the comments of the old pervert just now, and asks for Boro to control himself better.

Getting back on topic, Sia states that what they do know is that after Team Shibisu arrived at Name Hunt Station, Endorsi rushed off to face Kaiser by herself. However, she returned to the team some time after having lost her name, and had only managed to escape from Kaiser thanks to the teleportation powers of her Bong Bong fairy. Sia warns Bam and company that Endorsi has managed to not become a servant yet thanks to her Jahad Princess status, but once words gets out to Jahad and the Ten Great Families that she lost her name to Kaiser, it will only be a matter of time before Endorsi is stripped of her Princess rights.

Khun admits that he has a better understanding now of how serious this situation has become. Sia adds that Team Nobic has chosen to help Endorsi steal her name back from Kaiser since Team Shibisu helped them out of a problem that almost screwed Team Nobic (the Chigrinsky sleeping pill scheme).

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_53.png
Sia forces a wig on Bam to temporarily return to his Viole identity

However, Khun calls out Sia as someone who's in no position to help others. He watches Sia play around with her lighthouse hearing her talk to herself about how Endorsi will give her a special title if she helps the Princess become a Ranker, which doesn't surprise Khun one bit. Sia states that due to Endorsi's situation, this is why they need Bam and company's help solve this issue, which Khun replies back that their team is actually going after Kaiser as well.

Moving stuff around in her lighthouse, Sia orders Beta to help her out by handing a certain item over. A moment later, she pulls out a wig in the form of Jue Viole Grace's hair-style, and asks for Bam to put it on, which shocks him. He asks what the meaning of this is, which Sia apologizes for claiming that it's just a little costume. She asks for Bam to return to his Viole identity for a short while, which shocks Khun and Rak asking what Sia is doing. The two of them complain that it took them forever to get Bam back from FUG, but Sia gives off a laugh asking Bam to put it on already. A moment later, Bam stands in place now wearing the wig; having been transformed back into Jue Viole Grace.

Bam's companions remain silent seeing the image of Viole before them as an excited Sia states that the wig suits him perfectly since it makes him look like Viole. Though she quickly corrects herself remembering that Bam is Viole. Bam begins to sweat as Khun realizes that the former doesn't like what's going on as if he's beng forced to play dress-up as a girl. Meanwhile, Boro and company are heard shouting their amazement that Bam looks awesome as the Slayer Candidate. Getting irritated, Khun pulls on Sia's ears ordering her to explain why she's forcing Bam to do this. Feeling the pain of her ears getting pulled, Sia begs Khun to let go since she's against illegal hunting, and states that she will go about explaining what's going on.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_54.png
The no-names of Name Hunt Station wishing for rebellion bow before Viole

However, Sia notices several people appearing out of the woods asking if it really is Viole that has appeared. Glad that she won't have to explain this any further, Sia informs Bam and company that the event appears to have already started. Khun asks who the people are appearing before them as the newcomers begin to get excited seeing that it really is Jue Viole Grace before them.

Bam and company remain confused if the newcomers are enemies, but the Regulars who are continuing to gather before them are left amazed to see that the announcement is true. That Viole from the E-rank Workshop Battle has arrived at Name Hunt Station. They state how amazing it is that FUG has really come to save them using Jue Viole Grace as Bam and company remain shocked by how many Regulars at the station have appeared before them. The group of Regulars bow down before Bam calling him Lord Viole, and thank the Slayer Candidate for coming to save them, which leaves Bam and his companions even more confused as to what's going on.

Two days prior to the Hell Train arriving at Name Hunt Station, Team Nobic continues to sit opposite of Team Shibisu in their room of the no-name lodge after the latter explained to them Endorsi's current situation. Nobic asks what Team Shibisu is planning to do now since he knows the basics to help Endorsi, which is that they need to steal the rest of the Ten Bosses names in order to challenge Kaiser again to reclaim Endorsi's lost name.

    Team Shibisu's Revolution Plan Using Viole's Name 

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_55.png
Shibisu explains how they need all Ten Boss names to reach Kaiser at her Gallery

However, Nobic warns Shibisu and company that Kaiser comes off as someone who's too powerful if they rush at him unprepared. In return, Shibisu decides that the first thing to discuss would be how Name Hunt Station's festival works.

Shibisu explains how because Kaiser is the absolute ruler of Name Hunt Station, the leader can choose whoever he wishes to fight. However, that's not the case for the opposite where no one can just choose to fight Kaiser. The only way people can fight Kaiser is to challenge him at a place known as the festival. Shibisu explains the rules of the festival that by midnight tomorrow before the Hell Train leaves, which is when the festival will end, one must gather all the names of the Ten Bosses. After doing so, the person with the names of the Ten Bosses can arrive at the station island housing Kaiser's Gallery chamber, and finally challenge the leader for the chance to steal away Kaiser's name.

Shibisu states that if they manage to pull this off, it will be a happy ending for them since it will mean that they've retrieved Endorsi's name. He adds that ever since Endorsi lost her name, they've been in hiding hunting around the station for the Ten Bosses as quickly as possible.

In their end, their main goal is to make sure that they can make it to the festival. Given that they've already defeated four of them, as well as Team Nobic's defeat of Hesse, they now only have five station Bosses left to deal with. However, Shibisu points out that this is where the problem has come up. That they've been unable to find the remaining five station Bosses, which confuses Team Nobic.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_56.png
Shibisu reveals their biggest problem that the five remaining Bosses are in hiding

Shibisu explains that it's obvious that the remaining five station Bosses have decided to go into hiding. He points out to Team Nobic that this is one of the true reasons as to why no one has won a showdown with Kaiser within the last 1000 years.

That as long as the Ten Bosses remain in hiding, there's no way to truly reach Kaiser until the festival comes to an end. Nobic admits that he understands what happened seeing that the reason Kaiser chose to challenge Endorsi first is because the station leader knew the Princess was never going to challenge Kaiser herself at the festival.

Shibisu replies that this was indeed the case, and has begun to regret coming here since he would have given up this mission to take Kaiser's name if he had known about how ridiculous the rules are regarding Name Hunt Station's festival. However, given what happened to Endorsi, they now have no other choice but to try to make it to the festival in time with the names of all Ten Bosses. As a result, Shibisu states that their plan to lure out the last five station Bosses is simple. They will use the value of a special name to lure them out similar to how Ran's Great Khun Family name was able to lure out Hesse.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_57.png
Shibisu reveals his plan to use Viole's name to lure out the remaining Bosses

This is why Team Shibisu has been waiting on the arrival of the Hell Train, because currently aboard the express is a person with an incredible name that is more special than any Regular. Nobic begins to realize who Shibisu is referring to, which Shibisu agrees is the case. That they're going to use the name of Jue Viole Grace to not only lure out the last five station Bosses, but Kaiser as well.

Shibisu adds that they've already figured out how the broadcasting system works here, which is that the names of people registered in Pockets are sent to a studio within the no-named area. The announcer of the studio then reads high-valued names off for everyone on the station to hear in order to create a befitting atmosphere that gets everyone here hyped up. As a result, the plan is to make sure that when the Hell Train arrives, they will threaten the announcer to make sure that he will read off Bam's name as Jue Viole Grace.

Dan admits that he understands the plan, which is to use Bam's notoriety for Team Shibisu's own benefit, but warns Shibisu that the plan sounds a bit weak since there's no way to tell for sure that the remaining Ten Bosses will come out of hiding. He also warns Shibisu that their situation could get even worse since the Bosses may choose to hide even harder to stay away from Jue Viole Grace knowing that it could pit them up against FUG.

Shibisu threatens the existence of Name Hunt Station using the no-name revolt

However, Shibisu answers that this isn't going to be the case, which confuses Dan. He explains that Team Shibisu is expecting something else to come from the mention of Viole's name as the goal isn't just to bait out the remaining station Bosses. Shibisu reminds Team Nobic of Name Hunt Station's current governance system that is basically a pyramid slavery system based around people's names. The set-up is basically where the no-named are faithful to the named in order to acquire a name, followed by the named being faithful to the Ten Bosses in order to keep their names, and then the Ten Bosses being faithful to Kaiser in order to maintain their high station status. Shibisu points out how the reason this system has been able to keep running for so long is because of the feeling of helplessness that the no-names are left with. That they will no longer be allowed to leave Name Hunt Station the moment they lose their names. As a result, the only option no-names are left with is to become a part of the unwanted system by trying to steal away someone else's name since nobody will be out there to save them from the pit.

He asks Team Nobic what they think will happen if someone shows up to rebel against the station, which would get rid of the helplessness that are felt by the no-names. Shibisu also asks what they think will happen if some outlaw not from Jahad or the Ten Great Families was to appear, and provides hope to the no-names by claiming that he's come to tear down Name Hunt Station. He points out that this is where Jue Viole Grace comes into play. Shibisu states that their goal isn't simply to try to lure out Kaiser and the remaining Ten Bosses by using Viole's name as bait. What they're actually aiming for is the threat to destroy the very existence of Name Hunt Station.

Still being threatened by Anaak, the announcer sends out a message to all the no-names that FUG's Slayer Candidate, Jue Viole Grace, has arrived at the station. The announcer also states that Viole will fight against Kaiser to drive the warlord out of this place, and free everyone from the station.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_59.png
Shibisu deducing that Kaiser's side will be forced out of hiding to end the revolt

In return, Anaak congratulates the announcer for a job well done. The announcer also asks for anyone who wishes to reclaim their name to gather at the front gate in order to join up with Jue Viole Grace.

Within the halls of the no-name residence, no-names begin to gather coming out of their rooms, and talk amongst each other amazed by what they just heard. They question each other if they should go hearing that FUG is about to attack the station with a Slayer Candidate, but others question if this really means that they can get their name back. The announcer then repeats his last message for anyone who wishes to get their name back to join up with Jue Viole Grace at the front gate.

Back to Team Nobic's room, Shibisu states that even a powerful system like Name Hunt Station will be forced to collapse if the no-names gather around Viole's name to rebel. As a result, Kaiser and the Ten Bosses won't be able to remain in hiding for much longer knowing that a rebellion is currently going down.

The enemy's only option at that point would be to catch the man who started the revolt, Jue Viole Grace. Shibisu states that they will put their plan into action the moment Kaiser and the Ten Bosses set out to deal with Viole.

Returning to the present, the no-name Regulars continue to bow before Bam and company chanting Lord Viole's name. Bam and his companions continue to remain confused by the sight as the no-names beg Viole to slay Kaiser so that their names can finally return to them. The chanting continues as Khun is left wondering if the no-names gathering here is all part of a plan thought up by Shibisu. Meanwhile at Kaiser's Gallery chamber, Alphine arrives before the warlord to inform Kaiser of shocking news that the no-names have begun to gather around Jue Viole Grace.

    Kaiser Challenges Viole 

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_60.png
Kaiser announces that she will defeat Viole herself

Alphine informs Kaiser that rumors have begun to spread of how Viole has arrived to destroy Name Hunt Station. The yellow-head twin gives off a laugh believing that Viole one-upped Kaiser by instantly winning over all the no-names. The red-head twin also adds that Viole appears to be a smart since he appears to know that gnawing at an opponent from the bottom is the best way to defeat an enemy.

Kaiser thinks the situation over, and and remains confused as to what purpose this serves for a Slayer Candidate of FUG to come and liberate Name Hunt Station. He concludes that the only logical answer is that this story has been fabricated for some other reason. Kaiser orders Alphine to contact the other bosses, and warn them to not fall for the enemy's provocation, and to remain in hiding until the station festival passes over. He also orders for no one to lay a finger on Jue Viole Grace as he will deal with the Slayer Candidate himself.

Meanwhile, the last remaining Ten Bosses continue to remain in hiding having received Kaiser's order. At an unknown location, Yukan the Toxic Waste Human questions if he's really being forced to continue to remain in hiding. Somewhere else, Lulu of the Underwater Da'an Clan hides in a watery location asking himself if he will be able to walk again given how long he's been hiding here. Within another room with a white seal on the wall, Variel Vani the Key Man accepts the order hiding alongside the rest of his servants. However, at the final hiding spot, Arie Inieta the Genius Swordsman walks out of a door apologizing to Kaiser that he can't wait any longer, and is itching for a fight.

Back to Bam and compansions, the no-names remain down on their knees bowing before Lord Viole and chanting his name; begging the Slayer Candidate to get their names back from Kaiser. Bam and company remain confused over the sitaution, and asks someone to explain what's going on, but Sia quickly interrupts asking what everyone thinks they're doing. Sia explains that Viole is tired at the moment having just got off the Hell Train, and states that he needs to get some rest for the fight against Kaiser. She also asks for the no-names to listen to the orders of the Four Lords of FUG from now on.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_61.png
Sia makes up on the scene to the no-names who Viole's Four Lords are

The no-names remain confused by what Sia means by Four Lords, which she points them in the direction of Viole's four most faithful sidekicks: Rak, Hwaryun, Ehwa, and Sachi. The four of them remain confused by the announcement as Boro begins to get annoyed asking why he wasn't included. Sia announces the four as Sachi Faker, the cruel wizard of the top-3 D-rankers, Ehwa, the terrifying flame human of the Yeon Family, Hwaryun, the ultra percise human GPS, and Rak, the monster born on a banana farm. The four Sia has proclaimed as the Four Lords of FUG remain confused about what's going on as Sia explains that from now on, the no-names are subordinates of these four people until Viole steals away Kaiser's name by tomorrow night. Meanwhile, Bam and Khun remain confused as to how long it took for Sia to think up those names.

Sia explains that the job of the no-names is to fight off the named underlings of Kaiser and the Ten Bosses so that they will have an easier time fighting the higher-ups without interruption. She gives the order to lead Viole and company to the no-name residence as all the excited no-names race towards the still confused Viole group. Some time after, the no-names have all gotten introduced to Viole's group, and begin leading them towards the no-name lodge. One notices how Hwaryun is going off in a different direction, and tries to lead her correctly, but the guide orders him to shut up.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_62.png
A no-name Regular appears before Bam begging Viole to kill Kaiser

Meanwhile, Rak gets picked up, and held high, by a group of excited no-names chanting monster, which leaves Rak silent, but accepting the chant. Bam, Khun, and Sia watch as the no-names depart with the rest of his companions as Sia breathes a sigh of relief knowing that the tough introduction part is over with. However, an enraged Khun asks for Sia's attention, which causes the latter to jump in fear.

Khun yells at Sia to explain what's going on as to why she made Bam return to his Viole identity, and suddenly created an army for him using the no-names. He also scolds her for suddenly coming up with the Four Lords gimmick, and warns her that this is going to turn into a problem that she's going to have to deal with later on. However, Sia answers that she did all this for the sake of Bam and his friends, which confuses Khun.

Sia explains that this plan is all for the sake of reclaiming Endorsi's lost name, and reminds Khun and Bam that she wouldn't be helping if they turned out to be complete strangers. She also states that it's Shibisu who put her up to this, who provided her a message that if Khun and Bam know that it's a plan related to Team Shibisu, they would understand. Sia next states that their real purpose is simply to help Endorsi, and not to make Viole and Kaiser battle it out.

At this point, a no-name red-haired Regular with one black eye runs up to Bam, which grabs his, Khun's, and Sia's attention. Getting down on his knees, and grabbing hold of Bam, the red-haired no-name begs Viole to kill the bitch known as Kaiser as she's a complete demon (Kaiser revealed to actually be a woman). He explains how it was Kaiser that stole away all his friends names, and how it was her that caused his right eye, which is now black, to be injured.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_63.png
Team Shibisu in position to see if their plan to lure out their enemies works

The red-haired no-name continues to explain that Kaiser is someone who made women her slaves, but forced the men to fight one another to steal each other's names. He claims that even if there's a winner, Kaiser ends up killing them so that no one wins. As a result, the red-haired no-name explains that after having to kill his companions through this competition, he was only able to survive because he ran away, but ended up losing his name in the process. Crying to tears, the red-head no-name calls Kaiser and company as demon bastards who are the worst type of monsters that shouldn't exist.

Meanwhile, Shibisu and Hatz are seen on a nearby rock looking over the current situation going down on the station. Shibisu points out how despite their plan going according to plan so far, none of the Ten Bosses have come out to calm down the revolt yet. He also notes how there hasn't been any word from the others that have been placed at different locations of the station, and that their team's Observers haven't been picking up any changes. Ran and Nobic are seen having been stationed at the top of a stairwell in the no-name residence, but have come across nobody. Vespa carrying Lauroe is also seen having been stationed at the top of a tree, but have come up empty as well.

Hatz asks if this means that their plan has resulted in failure to bait out the remaining Ten Bosses, which causes Shibisu to think things over. Getting a message on his Pocket, Shibisu looks to it, and sees that it's from Khun My Love, who messages Shibisu that he will kill him when he sees him. The message causes Shibisu to sweat in fear apologizing to Khun in his mind that he understands why Khun would be angry over this. Getting back on topic, Shibisu finds it surprising that Kaiser and the Ten Bosses have still chosen not to move despite using Viole's name to start a revolt.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_64.png
Khun knocks the no-name away for pointlessly harassing Bam

Shibisu admits that he wasn't completely sure that this failed result was going to happen, which causes Hatz to ask if this proves that Kaiser is more cautious than they thought. However, Shibisu answers that probably the opposite is going to happen, which confuses Hatz. Shibisu explains that it's a given that Kaiser and the Ten Bosses will get involved since it's simply too big of an event to ignore to let a no-name rebellion continue on. As a result, they will see Viole as an enemy that they will need to get rid of. Shibisu thinks it over that this turn of events may prove that Kaiser is actually an aggressive person rather than being cautious. Hatz asks what he means by that, which Shibisu answers that there's a good chance Kaiser is going to appear to face Viole by himself.

Returning to Bam's group, the red-head no-name continues to hold onto Bam begging Jue Viole Grace to avenge his companions by killing Kaiser. Getting irritated, Khun grabs hold of the red-head no-name's shoulder, and tells him that this is enough. Khun then throws the no-name back, which shocks Bam. Khun explains that while they are indeed here for Kaiser's name, they're doing it for their own sake, and not of a no-name who seeks revenge against the station leader. He scolds the red-head no-name that telling them his pathetic story doesn't help them in any way. Khun also makes it clear that Viole isn't some sort of God that will make everyone's wish come true. The red-haired no-name tries to get back to his feet as Khun orders him to go deal with the problem he has with Kaiser himself rather than being a nuisance to Viole's group.

Suddenly, a voice is heard nearby asking if the no-names have already left to return to the residence. Seeing Kaiser walking towards them, the former states that this is disappointing since she was looking forward to seeing the look in the eyes of all the no-names after seeing the name of their salvation stolen before their very eyes. Seeing Bam with the long hair, Kaiser asks if it's Viole standing before her, and states how glad she is that finding him wasn't as difficult as she thought.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_65.png
Kaiser appears before Bam

Khun asks who the newcomer is supposed to be, but the red-haired no-name yells out that the person standing before them is Kaiser herself. The revelation shocks Bam and Khun seeing that Kaiser is already here as Sia is seen sending a message through her Pocket informing someone that Kaiser has made her appearance.

Looking over Bam, Kaiser states that she expected the Slayer Candidate to be a large intimidating man, and yet all she sees before her is a delicate-looking boy. However, she also adds that this probably isn't that surprising given that as the warlord of Name Hunt Station, she's just a delicate woman.

Getting back to the main topic, Kaiser orders Jue Viole Grace to explain why he's shown up at Name Hunt Station to stir up trouble. Kaiser points out how she never thought there would be a Slayer Candidate out there so interested in justice that he would go so far as to help the no-names here. She asks what Viole is truly after, which leaves Bam silent.

Returning to Shibisu and Hatz's location, Sia's message appears on Shibisu's pocket informing them that Kaiser has appeared, which shocks Shibisu. The two of them start to get moving as Shibisu confirms that his aggressive deduction of Kaiser was correct. Shibisu sends out the order to his team to initiate Plan B, and to contact Endorsi about it. Back to Bam's group, Kaiser orders Jue Viole Grace once more to explain why he's suddenly come to Name Hunt Station to shake up this place. In return, Bam simply answers that he's here to steal away her name.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_66.png
The no-name automatically dies attacking Kaiser without all the Boss names

The answer disappoints Kaiser seeing that the Slayer Candidate is just another one of that kind of people. Suddenly, the red-haired no-name yells out Kaiser's name in rage, and charges toward her. Calling Kaiser a lunatic, the red-haired no-name states that she has some nerve showing up here herself. He sends a punch at Kaiser claiming that he's now going to avenge his dead companions, but watches as his hands go throught through Kaiser's body.

The red-haired no-name remains confused about what's going on, and suddenly screams out in pain realizing that his hands are gone. The sight of the no-name losing his hands shocks Bam and Khun as Kaiser calls said no-name a fool for suddenly forgetting about the rules of this station.

Kaiser reminds the red-haired no-name that apart from her directly challenging someone to a fight, no one can attack Kaiser until they obtain the right by participating in the festival where a person can challenge her after acquiring the names of all Ten Bosses. If anyone was to break that rule, they will vanish immediately by order of the 39th Floor Guardian.

Looking down at his gone hands, the red-haired no-name continues to scream out in pain as the rest of his body begins to disappear. Kaiser asks how said no-name could be so consumed by rage to forget such an obvious rule, and taunts him that it's because of this that he was never able to reclaim his name. The red-haired no-name calls out to Kaiser in anger as the rest of his body disappears completely from the Tower; effectively killing him. Bam, Khun, and Sia, remain silent unable to believe what they just saw as Khun points out that this is such a ridiculous Tower rule having someone vanish just from attacking another. Kaiser agrees that the rule is ridiculous, but points out how it's thanks to this rule that she's been able to maintain Name Hunt Station for the past 1000 years as its warlord.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_67.png
Kaiser uses her rule as the station warlord to challenge Viole to a duel

Walking towards them, she orders Viole and company to leave if they refuse to follow this rule, but also warns them that they can't leave anyway the moment they chose to enter Name Hunt Station. Kaiser then states to Jue Viole Grace that the Slayer Candidate won't have to wait until the festival for him to challange her since he would just continue to stir up trouble with the revolt if she just let him be until then. Pointing at Bam, Kaiser announces that she requests to have a match with Viole. She explains to Viole that he's now in a situation where he has to put his name on the line against her, which shocks Bam.

Sia continues to send messages through her Pocket to inform Team Shibisu that Kaiser has requested a match with Viole as Khun is left shocked by how sudden everything is happening at the moment. Powering up an attack, Kaiser claims that it will surely turn out to be humiliating for FUG if their Slayer Candidate was to lose his name here. She sends the attack at Bam, which Khun quickly warns him to watch out. Bam manages to dodge out of the way flying on his shinsu platform, but Bam and Khun remain confused by what just happened since they were unable to see Kaiser's attack.

Kaiser warns Khun of the Great Khun Family to stay out of this since getting caught in her attack will cause him to disappear. Khun thinks things over knowing that her attack wasn't shinsu, and deduces that the only logical answer is that she's using an unseen weapon. As a result, Khun concludes that Kaiser must be using an Invisible Inventory. Seeing through his lighthouse, Khun confirms that he can make out the shape of the invisible weapon, but remains confused as to how a simple D-rank Regular has managed to get such a high-rank item that allows for Kaiser to attack with a Pocket Inventory that can make her weapons invisible. He sends out the warning to Bam that Kaiser is using invisible weapons, which shocks Bam.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_68.jpg
Kaiser uses her high-level Armor and Invisible Inventories against Bam

A moment later, Kaiser sends a barrage of invisible attacks toward Bam, who manages to evade out of the way of them by zig-zagging through the attacks on his floating shinsu platform. Khun asks if Bam is ok, which the latter answers that he's fine since he can still sense the attacks despite not being able to see them. Powering up his shinsu bangs, Bam deduces that his only option is to attack since continuing to be on the defense will only give her more chances to hit him with her unseen attacks. He sends the bangs at Kaiser, who gets up getting struck by them, but as the dust subsides, Bam sees that she remains completely unharmed having shielded herself from the bangs using a different item.

Seeing the item surrounding Kaiser, Khun is shocked to see that the station leader also has an Armor Inventory in her possession. A movable armor that can not only store weapons, but can neutralize incoming attacks from enemies. Re-establishing herself, Kaiser thinks over Bam's last attack realizing that he used up to seven bangs just now, and admits that she's never seen a D-rank Regular use up to that many. Sia yells out how surprising it is to see an Armor Inventory in the hands of a simple D-ranker given how expensive the item is, and asks how in the world Kaiser got her hands on it. Sia points out how an Armor Inventory is hard to obtain even for High Rankers, and given that Kaiser has now revealed herself to not only have an Armor Inventory, but an Invisible Inventory as well, she must be a Lord of Items.

Khun thinks things over figuring that Kaiser would have needed to raid the Treasure House of the Ten Great Families to obtain those two powerful Inventory Pockets, but concludes that only he, himself, is crazy enough to pull that kind of stunt off. He deduces that Kaiser must be getting support from the Ten Great Families since Name Hunt Station works closely with them, and wonders if this means that they unfairly provided Kaiser powerful items in order to make sure she becomes the ruler of the 39th Floor station. However, Khun concludes that even with such powerful Inventory Pockets, it still wouldn't be enough to guard a place for 1000 years, or the fact that Kaiser managed to defeat Endorsi. He figures that it's obvious Kaiser is currently hiding something else from them.

Khun warns Bam to watch out since Kaiser could still have hidden abilities that could jump him, which Bam agrees that he will as he activates his Thorn for more power. Bam states to Kaiser how he's heard that she's stolen the names of many people and tormented them. He states that while he's not fighting on their behalf, he still needs to take Kaiser's name. Powering himself up using the Thorn, Bam thinks over how he's begun to understand a little bit about what it means to overwhelm someone.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_69.jpg
Endorsi interrupts the fight to take Bam away with her

Bam believes that if he was to attack her with an overwhelming attack, Kaiser would be someone who would be unable to reach that point. On the opposite end, Kaiser remains confused as to what the red thorn-object is that suddenly appeared above Viole's shoulder. She deduces that it's obvious Viole has been hiding something from her as well during this fight, but swinging her hand to activate her trump card, she states to herself that nothing will be able to face her true power.

An object in the shape of a wolf appears before Bam, which surprises him, but before his attack could collide with Kaiser's, a voice is heard ordering them to stop. Everyone's attention turns to the location of the voice where they see Endorsi appearing in the air having teleported to Bam's location using the Bong Bong fairy. Bam remains confused as to why Endorsi has suddenly appeared before him as the Jahad Princess greets him stating that it's been awhile, but also asks why he's continuing to look at her with such a goofy face.

Sia begins to get excited seeing that Endorsi is finally here as Khun looks in fear realizing who it is that has suddenly appeared before them. Sia begins to pull Khun along towards Bam and Endorsi as the Jahad Princess turns her attention to Kaiser. Endorsi reminds Kaiser of how the former ordered the latter not to fight anyone until the station boss is defeated by her. She then warns Kaiser that the latter shouldn't be disobeying her like this, which leaves Kaiser confused about what's going on.

Kaiser asks if Viole and Endorsi know each other, which Endorsi answers that the two of them are actually a couple. The announcement confuses Viole as Sia continues to drag Khun along to stand along with Bam and Endorsi. The Jahad Princess begins to activate the Bong Bong fairy once more as Endorsi informs Kaiser that she's going to be taking the boy with him since he's hers.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_70.jpg
Endorsi taunts Kaiser that she now doesn't have to fight the Ten Bosses

Endorsi also taunts Kaiser by thanking the station leader for requesting a match with Viole since Team Shibisu now have hold of the one person that is allowed to fight Kaiser without the need of having to obtain the names of the Ten Bosses before the start of the Name Hunt Station festival, which shocks Kaiser, who begins to realize what's going on wondering if this was their plan all along.

Endorsi orders Kaiser to wait at 8:00pm tomorrow within her Gallery chamber so that they can have their proper fight. She also announces that if she loses this next fight to Kaiser, she will hand Viole over to her, which confuses Khun. Kaiser realizes that she had successfully been tricked as Endorsi yells at the former that she doesn't plan to lose like last time. Endorsi leaves off ordering Kaiser to let the Ten Bosses do whatever they want, and states that they will be seeing each other again tomorrow. A moment later, Kaiser watches as Endorsi teleports away with the Bong Bong fairy, and takes Bam, Khun, and Sia, with her.

Nearby, Rak continues to get held up in the air by the no-names as they move towards the no-name lodge. He sees the light of the Bong Bong fairy flying away in the air, and questions what it is that he just saw. Suddenly, Rak hears the voice of a newcomer asking what's up with this situation since he thought that by coming here, he would get the chance to face off against FUG's Slayer Candidate. Turning his attention to the location the voice came from, Rak sees the person in white, Arie Inieta, walking towards the group. In return, Inieta of the Ten Bosses asks why the Slayer Candidate appears to be some sort of alligator.

    Team Bam and Team Shibisu Reunion 

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_71.jpg
Endorsi transports Bam, Khun, and Sia to Team Shibisu at the named residence

Meanwhile, the Bong Bong fairy lands at the station residence for the named, and drops off Bam, Endorsi, Khun, and Sia, within a room housing Shibisu and Hatz. Shibisu gives them a greeting happy to see that they've all made it here safely. He asks Bam and Khun how long it's been since they last saw one another, and states that he wasn't expecting to see them again so soon.

Bam and Khun are surprised to see Shibisu before them as Shibisu says to them that he wasn't expecting to see them again at least until they've all past the Hell Train levels. Despite telling them he's happy to see them again, an enraged Khun runs at Shibisu claiming he's going to kill him, which causes a scared Shibisu to run.

Some time after, Shibisu, who now has a bump on his head from where Khun hit him, finishes explaining the situation to Khun and Bam. Khun goes over if he heard correctly that Endorsi got her name stolen due to a trap set for her, and that to get the name back, they used Viole's name to set up a rematch between Endorsi and Kaiser. Shibisu answers that to be the case, but adds that hoping Kaiser would actually challenge Viole straight-out was a gamble on their part. Shibisu continues to explain that they had a back-up plan if Kaiser didn't initiate a challenge. That if the no-names charged in with Viole at the head, Kaiser and the Ten Bosses would have no choice but to come out of hiding. He points out that even if they didn't manage to gather all the remaining station Bosses in time, Viole would still have a chance to face Kaiser, and then hand Endorsi back her stolen name once he's won. Khun scolds Shibisu for not fully thinking this through, and asks if they thought about the consequences of having Viole suddenly reappear at a station related to the Ten Great Families.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_72.jpg
Shibisu explains how Endorsi's life is at risk until she defeats Kaiser

In return, Shibisu admits that he knows it's an issue, and that he also feels bad about forcing Bam to do this. Before Shibisu could continue to speak, Endorsi interrupts asking if she could take Bam away given that this conversation is becoming a long story. Khun quickly answers no knowing that something bad will happen to Bam if they leave him with someone as dangerous as her. He also scolds Endorsi for not showing any remorse about getting everyone in danger by falling into Kaise's crap, which enrages Endorsi to the point of hitting Khun in the head. She yells at him to shut up, and asks why there's a problem with taking Bam away with her.

A moment later, Khun is now seen with a bump on his head as he states his surprise that Endorsi doesn't appear to be depressed after losing to Kaiser. However, he warns Endorsi to be careful since her personality of doing whatever she pleases is why she keeps ended up in bad situations.

Khun explains that there have been many Princesses of normal families who've been killed unnoticed during their climb up the Tower. The reason being that the higher-ups know that if a Jahad Princess from a normal family was to actually become a Ranker, a new power would be born. As a result, there are tons of people out there who try to get rid of normal family Jahad Princesses, such as Endorsi, so that a new power doesn't get created. Shibisu admits that he understands this problem, and states that this is why they need to get Endorsi's name back as soon as possible.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_73.jpg
Khun informs Shibisu that Bam also requires Kaiser's name

He explains to Bam and Khun that once the Ten Great Families find out about Endorsi's name being stolen, they will force her to step down from her position as a Jahad Princess. Shibisu warns the two that stepping down from her Princess status means that Endorsi will be executed. Khun replies that Endorsi's fate was decided the moment she inherited King Jahad's blood, but also informs Shibisu that while he would like to help Endorsi get out of this, things have become a bit complicated for Bam's side. He informs Shibisu that Bam also needs Kaiser's name, which shocks Shibisu.

Khun explains that they managed to meet Rachel on the Hell Train, and found out that she's aiming for the 43rd Floor of Death to accomplish something. However, in order to chase after her, Bam's group needs to bring Kaiser's name back to the Hell Train. As a result, Khun informs Shibisu that their two sides aren't companions, but are actually competitors.

Back to Rak's location, he drops down from the no-names holding him up, and asks who the white-haired turtle who just showed up is. A frightened no-name realize who it is, and warn Rak that they're better off avoiding the white guy. Rak asks what he means by that, which the no-name answers that the person is known as Inieta of the Ten Bosses, and is actually a lot more powerful than any of the other station Bosses. The revelation surprises Rak, which also causes Inieta to laugh finding it amazing that a no-name knows his identity as Inieta of the Great Arie Family.

    Station Boss Inieta Attacks 

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_74.jpg
Arie Inieta of the Ten Bosses challenges Rak in the no-name area

In return, Rak admits that he understands the situation, and figures that he just has to catch the puny white-haired turtle. Being called puny causes Inieta to laugh harder finding it amusing that he's being called small by an alligator who's shorter than him. Inieta then gets serious, and is able to deduce that the alligator is definitely not Jue Viole Grace, but is probably someone from the Slayer Candidate's team. He states to Rak that the alligator looks like someone who could be rather fun to face off against, and asks if making the alligator a pet would be a good idea, which begins to tick Rak off. Rak tells the no-names with him to not get in the way as he's decided to him Inieta by himself.

The no-names beg monster Rak not to do it since Inieta is known as the strongest of the Ten Bosses. However, Rak orders them to shut up since he's glad Inieta sounds like a strong person, and to not get in the alligator's way since he also happens to be the strongest. Rak informs them that he's going to hunt Inieta so that the no-names have a chance to run away, which the no-names find unbelievable. The no-names turn around to run away wishing Rak the best of luck taking Inieta on his own, which leaves Rak confused as to what the crazy no-name turtles are talking about.

Inieta walks toward Rak, and states how surprised he is that the alligator chose to give up his number advantage. He warns Rak that the alligator must not have realized who he's up against, which catches Rak's attention. Inieta pulls out his sword claiming that it's fun to face off against guys like Rak since he enjoys watching people struggle and beg for their lives when it's the type of people who enjoy fighting. He claims that those kind of people are never dignified before death, which causes Rak to order Inieta to stop chatting and charge at him already. Giving off an excited smile, Inieta accepts to do so. He charges at Rak attempting to hit the alligator with his sword, who manages to block the swing with his Mad Shocker spear.

Ehwa and Danhwa discuss each other's reasons climbing up the Tower

Rak and Inieta engage in close-combat blocking each other's respective spear and sword. However, during one of Inieta's swings, it ends up disappearing before Rak could block it, and then reappears in front of the alligator's face. The sight of Inieta's sword disappearing and then reappearing before his very eyes shocks Rak, and is left wondering if this is the same kind of swordsmanship used by the other Arie monster, Hoaqin.

Meanwhile, Ehwa and Danhwa are seen making their way to the no-name lodge with another group of no-names. Danhwa asks Ehwa if she heard what the no-names have been telling them that they arrived here under unfair circumstances, and ended up getting trapped on Name Hunt Station. He states that something about this station is definitely unnatural since it's basically set up as a place to clean up messes of the Ten Great Families. Danhwa points out that he doesn't know what someone from the Ten Great Families, like Ehwa of the Yeon Family, would think of this, which Ehwa replies back that he doesn't have to worry about that just because she's a Great Family member. Ehwa informs him that she's already decided to face the truth since it's the right thing to do.

Danhwa is surprised by the answer, and admits that Ehwa is a remarkable person who's different than a lot of other children of the Ten Great Families that he's come across. Ehwa replies that it's nothing that special since she's just been getting herself involved with several odd experiences with an unusual man (Bam). She then points out how Danhwa is actually the impressive one since he's chosen to go to the Floor of Death to save a girl (Yura) that he's only met for a brief time. Ehwa asks if there's a reason Danhwa is going so far for this girl, which causes Danhwa to grip his Krishna ignition sword. He explains to Ehwa that he's simply trying to do his best by accomplishing his duty as a knight.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_76.jpg
Rak gets cut across the face unable to make sense of Inieta's sword swings

The reason he received Krishna is to make sure that he will continue to protect women as a knight. However, he also says to Ehwa that there's another reason he's trying to reunite with Yura. Before he could reveal it, an explosion occurs in the distance, which Ehwa quickly realizes that it's at the location where Rak is currently at. Ehwa begins to run off to Rak's location in order to check out what's going on as Danhwa tries to call out to her to stop.

Danhwa chooses to follow after her as Boro tries next to call out out to the two of them ordering them to stop. However, Danhwa replies back that it will be ok given that he has possession of an ignition weapon. As a result, Boro, Sachi, and Iruroe, are forced to watch Ehwa and Danhwa run off to Rak's location.

Returning to Rak and Inieta's fight, the alligator is seen with blood dripping from his face having been cut across the nose by Inieta's sword. Rak is left amazed seeing that Inieta has proven himself to be another monster. In return, the white-haired Arie member admits that the alligator is impressive managing to dodge his last sword swing.

Back to the named lodge, Bam is seen having been pulled away to Endorsi's private room. Sitting on her bed, Bam has finished explaining the entire situation to Endorsi, which the latter finds surprising that he's not only been through a lot, but is still chasing after Rachel. Endorsi is seen fixing up her hair in front of a mirror, which always gets messed up when she flies around using the Bong Bong fairy. The Jahad Princess also points out to Bam how he and Rachel have always looked like weird people in her eyes, which causes Bam to laugh in agreement.

    Team Bam and Team Shibisu Rivalry 

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_77.jpg
Endorsi attempts to seduce Bam so that she can get her rematch with Kaiser

Changing to another subject, Endorsi asks how it felt for Bam facing off against Kaiser, which confuses him. Thinking it over, Bam answers that the fight was very brief, and that Kaiser proved herself to be a strong opponent, but didn't seem like a person he would have been unable to beat. He asks if it's true that Endorsi really lost to her, which the Princess admits to be the case.

She explains to Bam of what he knows that she went off to the Gallery to face Kaiser by herself, but ended up getting her name stolen having lost the fight. However, Endorsi points out to Bam that there was no difference in their abilities. She was just caught off-guard by the abilities Kaiser was hiding.

Bam asks if he heard correctly that Kaiser is hiding some of her abilities, which Endorsi answers to be the case. She warns Bam that the abilities Kaiser has is the reason that she's been able to remain unbeatable at Name Hunt Station, which confuses Bam even further. He asks Endorsi to explain what Kaiser's abilities are, but Endorsi gives off a laugh stating that it's a secret unless he decides to promise to help her reclaim her name. Endorsi also informs Bam that Kaiser is also holding another secret that the station leader told her in person when they fought at the Gallery. That Kaiser is a member of one of the Ten Great Families, and was set to become a Jahad Princess.

The Kaiser revelation shocks Bam, which Endorsi explains that for some reason, the plan to make Kaiser a Jahad Princess was cancelled, and as a result, she arrived at Name Hunt Station 1000 years ago. Bam asks why Kaiser's Princess blessing was cancelled, but Endorsi answers that she doesn't know, and is someone who wouldn't want to know about Kaiser's past anyway. Getting back on the main topic, she reminds Bam once more that the important thing at the moment is to steal her name back from Kaiser. Taking a seat between Bam's legs on the bed, Endorsi asks what he thinks about the plan of becoming her servant so that the two of them can steal away Kaiser's name tomorrow night at the Gallery.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_78.jpg
Hatz blocks Khun from leaving since they're now competing for Kaiser's name

However, Bam informs her that he won't be able to do such a thing, which confuses Endorsi. He explains that the reason he won't be able to help her is because he also needs to steal Kaiser's name. The answer leaves Endorsi even more confused.

Outside Endorsi's room, Shibisu remains confused by what Khun means by being rivals, which Khun answers that this is the case since it turned out that both their teams need Kaiser's name. So as a result, they're considered as competing rivals here at Name Hunt Station. Khun warns Shibisu that the former's group isn't going to yield since they can't continue chasing after Rachel without bringing back Kaiser's name, and admits that he's beginning to understand why Princess Yuri has chosen to send Bam off to Name Hunt Station to try to stop him from going to the 43rd Floor of Death. Shibisu asks if Khun is kidding about this since Endorsi could end up dying if she's not the one who steals away Kaiser's name, which Khun admits that it's a shame, but it's Team Shibisu's fault for getting into trouble in the first place.

Beginning to sweat, Shibisu admits he understands Khun's logic, but asks him to have a second thought over this, but Khun quickly answers that he wont. Shibisu continues to beg him to change his mind, and begins to think to himself that things are are starting to fall apart. He thinks over how it's only Viole that can defeat Kaiser, and realizes that everything that Team Shibisu has prepared for Viole is only going to help Bam's group. Seeing Shibisu struggling in thought, Khun gives off a smile taunting the former that this is the result of trying to use Bam's FUG identity for their own benefit. Shibisu is left unable to say anything back as Khun gets up to leave stating that they're done talking, and should have a fair competition as rival teams. Shibisu calls out to Khun to come back, and apologizes for his actions stating that it was wrong to use Bam's FUG name.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_79.jpg
Bam informs Endorsi that he needs Kaiser's name to go to the Floor of Death

He also adds that he will throw in the wig as an apology gift, but it's at this point that Hatz steps into Khun's exit path asking where Khun thinks he's going. Khun remains confused by Hatz's actions, which the sworduser points out that this fair competition between rival teams must have already started. Pulling out his sword, Hatz warns Khun that if he's going to leave this room, Khun will have to defeat him first. In return, Khun thinks over how he should deal with Hatz.

Returning to Endorsi's room, she remains confused as to why Bam also needs to steal away Kaiser's name. Bam reminds her of what he just explained that he met Princess Yuri on the Hell Train, and is keeping him from going to the 43rd Floor of Death unless he proves his strength to Yuri by bringing back Kaiser's stolen name. He then states that while he understands the bad situation Endorsi is currently in, he needs Kaiser's name in order to go to the Floor of Death. As a result, Bam informs her that this is why he can't let Endorsi be the one that steals away Kaiser's name.

In return, Endorsi asks if Bam is ok with her dying just so he can have Kaiser's name, which Bam struggles to answer. Endorsi then asks if Bam is ok with her dying just so he can continue to chase after Rachel, which Bam answers that that isn't what he means. She asks once more if Bam is going to help her, but Bam repeats himself that he can't.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_80.jpg
Khun pulls out his knife and lighthouses to take on Hatz

The answer leaves an enraged Endorsi unable to speak as she places her hand on Bam's back, which confuses Bam. Endorsi orders Bam to not be so ridiculous going back and forth, and claims that if he's not going to help him willingly, she's going to make him a servant by force.

Back to outside Endorsi's room, Khun asks if what he heard was correct that he must defeat Hatz before being allowed to leave, which the sword user answers is the case. Hatz points out how it's now been decided that they're rivals, so as competing teams, he figures that it's for Team Shibisu's benefit to not allow Khun to leave. Khun replies that what he actually meant is to just fight for Kaiser's name rather than allied teams battling it out, and points out how what they're truly after is just Kaiser rather than facing off against Khun. However, Hatz answers that it's the same thing since they have no way to steal away Kaiser's name if Viole doesn't fight alongside Endorsi. Pointing his sword at Khun, Hatz warns the former that he has no choice but to force him to stay here.

Pulling out a knife from his lighthouse, Khun scolds Team Shibisu for being a problematic group who can never be convinced with words, especially Hatz. Preparing for battle, Khun states to Hatz that the latter has always been someone who never understands no matter how hard he tries to make his words clear. Shibisu calls out to them begging Khun and Hatz to not fight since there's no reason for it, but Hatz answers that there's more than enough reason for him to fight since he's witnessing Khun turn his back on Endorsi despite hearing about her current predicament. Hatz asks how Khun and company could go about turning their back on Endorsi so easily after she helped Bam escape from FUG at the E-rank Workshop Battle, but Khun counters asking how this gives Team Shibisu the right to send Bam back to FUG when they desire to. He orders Hatz to stop talking nonsense, and charge already, which Hatz does so. He swings his sword down upon Khun, who blocks the strike with a lighthouse barrier.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_81.jpg
Khun uses the Emerald Sword combination attack against Hatz

Shibisu remains standing in place shocked that two of his friends are now battling it out. He deduces that this is a bad situation since Khun and Hatz have never gotten along as if they're a cat and a dog. Shibisu is left worried that at this point, only someone on the level of Endorsi or Anaak will have the strength to stop this duel. Khun states his disappointment that Hatz has always been someone who carelessly swings his sword around. He swings his knife at Hatz, who manages to dodge it, but Khun then switches his knife to the next hand to perform a quick second attack. Using this combo-tactic, Khun manages to keep up with Hatz as they engage in close-combat strikes between knife and sword.

Khun manages to land several cuts on Hatz as he calls upon shinsu he has stored within his lighthouse. Using the Lighthouse Shinsu Manipulation Skill: Weapon-Boost technique, Khun charges up his knife with shinsu, and performs the Emerald Sword attack against Hatz, who manages to deflect the swing. Hatz is left amazed that Khun used a technique to boost his knife attack by combining it with his lighthouse, and concludes that had Khun been using a better weapon, his Emerald Sword attack could have been critical against him. Preparing his sword once more, Hatz figures that his best shot to defeat Khun is to break through the protective shield of Khun's lighthouse first.

Using the Dance of Ghost Fish: Seven Shots, The Ascent of Dragon sword technique, Hatz sends a barrage of sword strikes at Khun, and manages to break apart the lighthouse barrier that has been protecting him. Hatz then charges forward seeing that he's made an opening, but Khun counters with a knife to stall Hatz's charge. Khun then goes in for a knife attack, which Hatz manages to block with his sword, but is then greeted by a punch to the face from Khun's left fist. In return, Hatz manages to return with a right elbow hit to Khun's chin.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_82.jpg
Hatz injures Khun's left arm, but loses the duel due to Khun bypassing him

The two stand close to one another having received each other's respective fist and elbow as Khun goes in for another knife swing. However, this time around, Hatz gets the kick counter in, and knocks Khun back a ways.

Re-establishing himself, Khun admits that Hatz is impressive being able to prove himself as someone that can keep up in a fist fight with a member from the Ten Great Families. However, he informs Hatz that that still won't be enough to stop Khun from leaving here, which Hatz admits that he already knows this. Khun charges forward once more as Shibisu is heard begging them to stop fighting.

Hatz figures he has no choice at this point given that he's up against a member from one of the Ten Great Families. Given that Khun also has the support of a lighthouse, Hatz deduces that there's no way he will be able to win through physical domination. As a result, his only option left in order to stop Khun is to take away a part of his body. Khun continues to charge forward using his shinsu-boosted knife as Hatz swings his sword down upon him using the Dance of Ghost Fish: Single Shot sword technique.

Hatz manages to cut Khun's left arm as the latter cuts across the former's left face cheek. However, Khun has managed to bypass Hatz, and now stands at the exit door to the next room. Turning back to Hatz, Khun states that his is the former's defeat since Hatz will never be able to cut him down. However, given how injured Khun's left arm is, he admits that it's the same for him not being able to defeat Hatz.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_83.jpg
Endorsi threatens to take Bam's name by force to get Kaiser's duel request

Khun explains that the difference that made this his victory is that the overall goal was simply to escape Team Shibisu's room. Grabbing Shibisu's attention as well, Khun explains that he's not trying to convince Team Shibisu from trying to steal away Kaiser's name to save Endorsi, but warns them that they're going to have to put their lives on the line for a fight if they continue to use Bam for their own benefit. Opening the door to walk out of the room, Khun leaves off stating that he doesn't want to see Bam used by anyone anymore.

Entering the next room, Sia is seen waiting for Khun's return, which shocks Sia seeing the blood on Khun's left arm. Khun explains that he got in a bit of a fight with a friend, which confuses Sia asking if fights amongst Bam's companions are all like this. Khun ignores it asking where Bam's currently at, which Sia answers that Princess Endorsi took him to her room awhile ago. The answer shocks Khun wondering if Endorsi is really trying to do what he thinks is about to happen.

Returning to Endorsi's room, the angry Endorsi still has her hand on Bam's back to begin the name-stealing. She begins to laugh claiming that forcing Bam to become her servant is how things should be. The scared Bam states to Endorsi that they should talk this out, but she orders him to shut up. Endorsi then begins to laugh like a maniac questioning why she even went so far as to ask Bam given that this is Name Hunt Station where nothing matters as long as you have another person's name. She cheers happily for the station existing, which Bam begs her to snap out of this craze she's currently in.

A moment later, an enraged Khun kicks open Endorsi's door asking what she's doing as Sia follows in behind him. In return, Endorsi asks why Khun is interrupting her alone time with Bam, which Khun answers that he's finished his talk with the other members of Team Shibisu.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_84.jpg
Bam informs Endorsi that he's hoping the Floor Of Death explains his origins

He also informs Endorsi that while he understands the bad situation she's currently in, Bam is still someone who also requires Kaiser's name. Khun makes it clear that no matter what, they aren't going to hand Kaiser's name over to Endorsi, and orders her to let Bam go already.

Getting up off of Bam, Endorsi asks if Khun really means what he's saying, which he answers that he is. That Bam's group is not going to let Team Shibisu have Kaiser's name. Endorsi reminds him that her life depends on obtaining Kaiser's name, which Khun replies that while they know this, they're in a situation where they can't let anyone else steal away Kaiser's name. He explains that Princess Yuri sent Bam and company on an impossible mission to Name Hunt Station in order to keep them from going to the 43rd Floor of Death. Khun states that without bringing Kaiser's name back to the Hell Train, it will leave Yuri unconvinced to allow them to journey there.

Endorsi becomes enraged calling them all insane for putting her life to the side just for the sake of chasing after Rachel, which causes Sia to hide behind the door finding the Jahad Princess to be scary. However, Bam is the next to speak telling her that no matter what, he needs to go to the Floor of Death. He also adds that it's not just all for the sake of chasing after Rachel. Bam explains to her that it's a journey for himself as well, which catches Endorsi's attention. He states that he finally has a lead regarding Irregulars, and the other Enryu Thorns, being connected to the Floor of Death, and that by going there, he would finally begin to find information about himself that he's currently not aware of. However, Bam also adds that he doesn't wish to see Endorsi die over this either. Bam assures Endorsi that by tomorrow, they will find a way to not only steal away Kaiser's name, but also make sure that Endorsi lives through this current problem she's dealing with.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_85.jpg
Bam, Khun, and Sia, depart from Team Shibisu's room

Having heard Bam's answer, Endorsi is left annoyed by the amount of stupidity going on in this room claiming that she would have better luck asking for relationship advice from a statue over the people currently here. Clenching her fist in anger, Endorsi yells at Bam that the ambiguous words he just told her isn't the answer she was looking for. She orders Bam to make a decision whether to help her or not by 5:00pm tomorrow, and that if he chooses to follow after Rachel over helping Endorsi out, she will go about stealing away his name by force. She leaves off warning Bam to brace himself for a possible fight in the future.

Some time after, Khun, Bam, and Sia, depart from Team Shibisu's room into the hallway of the named lodge. Khun takes a breath of relief finding it crazy how things have gotten so mixed up, but points out how it was his own fault getting caught up in the heat of the moment as well being forced to fight against Hatz. Bam asks how Khun's injured left arm is holding up, which Khun reassures him that it's just a little cut. Given how complicated their mission to take Kaiser's name is now, Khun asks Bam how they should approach this. In return, Bam answers that the first order of business is to steal away Kaiser's name, but afterwards, find a way to help Endorsi out of her situation as well. However, he points out that they won't be able to do much about this if Endorsi remains opposed to how they're currently going about the mission to steal Kaiser's name.

    Inieta vs. Rak, Ehwa, and Danhwa 

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_86.jpg
Alphine of the Ten Bosses informs Kaiser that Inieta chose to stop hiding

Khun agrees that this is the right path to take, but can't seem to think up any answers for the moment. Sia is left wondering if she perhaps knows the right answer to this, but Khun warns the two of them that overall, they shouldn't try to turn Endorsi into a future enemy by refusing to help her here. Khun continues to think things over, and deduces that no matter what route they take on Name Hunt Station, they will encounter a fight against Team Shibisu at least one more time. He finds is unbelievable that not only has Bam's group ended up in a fight against Kaiser and her station subordinates, but against the members of Team Shibisu as well.

Meanwhile at Kaiser's Gallery chamber, Alphine greets the returned leader asking if she had a nice trip just now. However, the Lo Po Bia twins point out that it obviously wasn't a nice trip since Lord Kaiser has failed to return with Jue Viole Grace's name. The yellow-haired twin asks what happened during that fight finding it interesting that the Slayer Candidate was revealed to be helping Princess Endorsi. The red-haired twin agrees that there's obviously some sort of connection between Viole and Endorsi, and points out that this has provided them a chance to destroy Endorsi without haven't to go to the effort of stealing her name. Kaiser remains silent thinking things over as the twins claim that they can't wait to tell their dad in the Lo Po Bia Family about this.

Alphine speaks next informing Kaiser of some bad news that one of the Ten Bosses has disobeyed the order to remain in hiding, and is currently fighting against members of Viole's group at the no-name area. Kaiser asks who the station Boss is, which Alphine answers to be Inieta. The answer leaves Kaiser annoyed knowing how foolish of a person Inieta is, and states that she regrets ever choosing him as one of the Ten Bosses.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_87.jpg
Kaiser decides to support Inieta's attack on Viole's companions at the no-name area

In return, Alphine asks if she should go out and retrieve him, but Kaiser orders her not to having decided that they could use Inieta's attack to their advantage, which confuses Alphine. Meanwhile, the close-combat spear against sword fight continues between Rak and Inieta at the no-named station area.

Kaiser orders Alphine to send a message to the remaining Ten Bosses still in hiding to invade the area of the no-named and assist Inieta. She states that the plan is to go after Viole's companions who have still not yet gathered up at Viole's current location. Alphine admits she's beginning to understand Kaiser's thought process, which the leader states that since Viole has managed to convince the no-names of the station to join his cause, it's only right to steal away some of his in return.

Kaiser announces that they're going to capture some of Viole's companions, and put them up for auction. That such an action will cause Viole to realize just how merciless Name Hunt Station truly is.

Back to Rak's location, the alligator re-establishes himself after getting knocked back by Inieta's last attack. Rak thinks things over realizing how serious this current fight is since he hasn't been able to see Inieta's sword. On the opposite end, Inieta gives off a smile finding it amazing that Rak has been able to last a long time against him.

Inieta calls out to Rak informing the alligator that there's only ever been two other people on this station that has been able to last against his swordsmanship. He asks if Rak's survival so far is some sort of animal instinct as Rak continues to think things over.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_88.jpg
Shibisu explains to Hatz how they were wrong taking advantage of Bam

Rak thinks to himself that it's just as the white turtle said that he's been dodging the sword through animal instinct, but is reaching his limit due to not being able to follow the unnatural path that Inieta's sword follows. He's left confused as to how he's supposed to deal any damage to Inieta since every time he tries to attack his sword's blind spot, the sword ends up flying towards Rak's neck. Suddenly, a voice calls out to Rak, which grabs his and Inieta's attention. Ehwa yells that they've come to assist the alligator as she's seen powering up her flames, and Danhwa charges up his Krishna ignition sword to begin the attack.

Returning to Team Shibisu's room, Hatz is left annoyed that Khun acted like a jerk to them refusing to understand their current dilemma, and asks how he could be so selfish to actually turn his back on a friend. He continues to complain how disappointed he is in Khun's actions, but Shibisu asks for Hatz to stop since it was their fault for ending up in this mess to begin with. Hatz asks why Bam's group would go so far as to refuse to help them knowing the danger Endorsi's in, which Shibisu answers that it's not that Khun's refusing to help them, but that he's simply drawing a line as to how far they can take advantage of being friends with Bam.

Hatz remains confused by Shibisu's answer asking how it's not the same thing drawing a line when a friend's life is at stake. Shibisu replies that it's because they aren't his friends, which confuses Hatz even further. He reminds Hatz that while they are indeed Bam's friends, they aren't friends of Viole. Shibisu explains that he always knew that only Viole, a Slayer Candidate boy meant to become a God, will be able to save Endorsi from the problem she's currently in.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_89.jpg
Ehwa and Danhwa arrive to support Rak's fight against Inieta

However, Shibisu points out how Viole is a name that should have been erased after the E-rank Workshop Battle. Shibisu states that if they truly were Bam's friends, they would not have called out to Viole for help under any circumstances, which leaves Hatz unable to reply back except to half-heartedly say that they had no choice asking Viole for help.

Back at Rak's location, the alligator is shocked to see Ehwa and Danhwa having arrived to support him as the two of them send their attacks at Inieta. Yeon flames, and a blast of shinsu from the Krishna, explode at Inieta's location, which angers Rak asking why they're interrupting his hunt on the white turtle prey. He asks why they're getting in his way after finally finding such a good prey, which confuses Ehwa. The enraged Rak continues to yell at them to get lost as he wants to catch the white turtle himself. Ehwa begins to get angry herself as she yells out to Rak that they ran all the way to the alligator's location to assist, which Rak yells back that he doesn't care if he dies fighting Inieta alone.

Suddenly, Inieta speaks from inside the Yeon flames stating how he heard that a member of the Great Yeon Family has arrived at Name Hunt Station, and asks if the flame-girl who attacked him just now is said person. Inieta cuts the flames away from him, which shocks Ehwa seeing that someone is capable of blocking the powerful Yeon flames.

Thinking things over, Inieta confirms that dealing with powerful Yeon flames could end up being dangerous for him. Ehwa sees Inieta's white hair, and wonders if he's perhaps another member of the Great Arie Family as Inieta charges at her yelling that it's obvious he needs to finish her off first. Rak is left in a state of shock seeing Inieta completely unharmed by the combined Ehwa and Danhwa attack earlier, and figures that it's time to get back to the hunt. Danhwa yells out that he can't forgive anyone who harms a woman, and ignites another shinsu blast towards Inieta.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_90.jpg
Hwaryun avoids the Inieta fight going along her path to the no-name residence

The Arie Family member attempts to block the blast from the Krishna sword, but ends up getting knocked back, which causes Rak to cry out worrying that his prey is about to be taken away from him. Ehwa and Danhwa stand ready to attack once more with their respective Yeon flames and Krishna ignition sword, which causes Inieta to think over how he's up against an ignition weapon, and is left wondering how a mere D-rank Regular managed to get hold of one. Pulling out a bottle of booze, Inieta thinks to himself that the companions of Viole are quite an arrogant bunch.

At another location of the no-name area, Hwaryun continues to walk off in a different direction with a group of no-names away from the current battle. Explosions are heard in the distance, which catches the attention of some of the no-names. One warns Hwaryun that a battle may be going on at the moment, which the guide answers that she knows, and is trying not to get involved by avoiding it. The no-name asks why she's choosing to avoid it, which Hwaryun answers to pay no attention to it if they wish to keep living.

Meanwhile, Lulu of the Ten Bosses is seen spying at Boro, Sachi, and Iruroe's group from behind a tree as they make their way towards the no-name residence. Boro asks if Rak, Yinwa, and Danhwa, will be ok, which Sachi answers that they will check back on them once they regroup at the residence since getting split up any further will leave them in a dangerous situation.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_91.jpg
Inieta separates Danhwa from his Krishna ignition sword

The station Boss continues to look at said group shocked to see that the rumors are true that Sachi of the top-3 D-rankers is actually here, and is left wondering why someone that powerful would show up at Name Hunt Station. A voice is heard over a communicator asking Lulu what the latter will do about this since Kaiser has given the order to capture Viole's companions.

Lulu answers that Sachi is already extremely powerful, and given that he still has several companions at his side (Boro and Iruroe), he won't be able to capture anyone here. The person on the communicator, shown to be Variel of the Ten Bosses, is seen with the rest of his servants walking up a stairwell placing a seal on the door of Team Nobic's room to force their door open. Variel sends word to Lulu that it's unlikely the people currently fighting Inieta are going to survive, but should still try to take anyone they capture back to Kaiser, which Lulu agrees with. Above Team Nobic's room on the stairwell, Dan is seen shaking the weakened Ran awake yelling at the latter that they need to get away from here.

Returning to the fight against Inieta, the Arie Family member opens up his bottle, and takes a drink of it, which confuses Rak and Ehwa. Danhwa charges forward with Krishna ready yelling that he's had enough of Inieta's arrogance.

The swordsman sends his ignited sword down upon Inieta, who finishes his drink. Inieta then quickly counters Danhwa's attack, and manages to knock Krishna out of the latter's hands. Danhwa remains stunned in disbelief by what just happened as Ehwa and Rak find it unbelievable that the swordsman had Krishna knocked away from him in just one shot. A moment later, Krishna is seen landing on the ground behind Danhwa. Inieta prepares his sword to attack the defenseless Danhwa scolding him that his grip is too weak to hold such a powerful ignition weapon. Powering up her flames to support, Ehwa warns Danhwa to dodge, but is forced to watch Inieta cut him across the chest before her flames could reach the Arie Family member.

Inieta defeats Danhwa by igniting Krishna against him

Inieta then turns towards the Yeon flames, and blocks it with his sword. Danhwa uses this moment to attempt to reacquire his Krishna sword, and makes a run for it, but is grabbed by Inieta at the last second, which surprises Danhwa.

Rak begins to fear for the worst wondering if Inieta was actually after the ignition sword this whole time. Ehwa watches in confusion as Inieta asks how he's supposed to ignite Krishna. The Arie Family member yells out ignite asking if this is right, which leaves Danhwa stunned in disbelief seeing Inieta managing to ignite a newly acquired sword on his first try. A giant ignition explosion occurs, which leaves Danhwa lying bloody and injured on the ground having been caught up close in the Krishna blast activated by Inieta. Ehwa calls out to him hoping he's still alive.

Holding the Krishna ignition sword, Inieta gives off a smile admitting that the thing is awesome. Rak and Ehwa begin to sweat in fear realizing the trouble they're in seeing a member of the sword-wielding Great Arie Family now in possession of an ignition sword. In his mind, Rak calls Danhwa an idiot knowing that said sword user just did something stupid by making his prey even more powerful. Swinging around the Krishna sword, Inieta figures that he's starting to get use to the feel of it. Giving off an excited grin, Inieta turns his attention to Ehwa claiming that he should now get rid of the biggest nuisance. Rak warns her to watch out as Inieta sends a blast of ignition shinsu in her direction. Ehwa summons her Yeon flames to block the Krishna blast, but is shocked to realize that another blast of shinsu is coming at her from another direction.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_93.jpg
Inieta defeats Ehwa and Rak thanks to obtaining Krishna

Unable to block the second Krishna blast, Ehwa gets caught up in it as an explosion occurs at her location. Rak calls out to Ehwa hoping she made it out ok but sees her now lying on the ground unable to fight any further. Inieta takes another drink of his booze, and states in excitement that it's never tasted better after obtaining such a good ignition sword. He figures he should go about bragging about this to Kaiser since he now has a weapon as good as hers.

Ehwa thinks over the last attack that hit her, and deduces that the pressure disappeared part way upon approaching her. She wonders if the Krishna is acting differently mainly because it's now being used by a member of the Great Arie Family. Inieta asks if he could probably challenge Kaiser at the festival now that he's obtained this ignition weapon, but is suddenly greeted by a massive fist to his head. Getting knocked back, Inieta realizes that Rak, having finally returned to his normal more massive form, is now standing before him. Rak calls out Inieta for getting too cocky as mere prey, which excites Inieta seeing that his alligator opponent is now much bigger.

Some time after, the battle against Inieta has already come to an end. Rak lies defeated on the ground as Inieta remains standing breathing heavily in exhaustion. Seeing Danhwa and Ehwa also lying on the ground unconscious, Inieta breathes a sigh of relief claiming that Rak really was a strong one. He admits that throughout their fight, he never heard Rak scream in pain once.

    Inieta Bringing Kaiser Some Hostages

Khun explains to Bam that it's better to be human rather than play god

At another location, Bam, Khun, and Sia, are seen leaving the area of the named on a transport platform. Seeing Bam thinking hard about something, Khun asks what's on the former's mind. Bam answers that he's wondering if he was perhaps too harsh on Endorsi given what's happened to her. He explains that from Endorsi's perspective, she no doubt wanted Bam to give up everything just to help her since her life, the most important thing a person could have, is currently on the line. Meanwhile, Endorsi is seen on her bed raging under her covers at how idiotic Bam and company are being.

Bam continues to explain that on this side, there's things he needs to do, such as meeting Rachel again, finding out what the power is within himself, as well as finding the answer as to who he truly is. He states to Khun that he can't just help anyone thoughtlessly anymore as it could end up harming someone else, and that there must be some other reason as to why this power was given to him. Bam also says that if the power within him was capable of making everyone happy as if he was some sort of god, it leaves him wondering how great it would be to see everyone's dreams come true.

Having heard what Bam is thinking, Khun asks why it's wrong simply to remain human, which confuses Bam. Khun explains that while he doesn't understand Bam's way of thinking, it doesn't sound like much fun to be a god that lives only for everyone else's sake. He continues to explain to Bam that since the latter is still just a human, there's nothing wrong with saving who he wants to save. A god is someone who would have to treat everyone equally. Khun makes it clear that the power to save whoever he desires is Bam's true power, and that it's up for Bam to decide how he goes about using it. Khun's reply leaves Bam thinking things over even further.

Inieta returns to Kaiser with Rak, Ehwa, and Danhwa, as hostages

Switching to Kaiser's chamber, three of the Ten Bosses, Inieta, Lulu, and Variel, are seen arriving before the station leader. Inieta states that it's been awhile since he last saw Kaiser as the latter asks if the three unconscious people behind them are Jue Viole Grace's companions. Rak, Ehwa, and Danhwa are seen being pulled be them in chains, which Inieta answers that this appears to be the case. He states to Kaiser that the fight was actually a lot more difficult than he thought due to how powerful the alligator was, and it was because of said fight that he never got meet Jue Viole Grace.

Variel finds it amusing that a simple alligator Regular gave someone from the Great Arie Family such trouble, which Inieta counters that Variel would have died had he gone up against Rak. The Key Man orders Inieta not to make fun of him since he's also a member of the Ten Bosses who wouldn't lose so easily to an alligator freak. Ignoring Variel's comment, Inieta states how surprising it is to see that Kaiser failed to steal away Viole's name when she went out to challenge the Slayer Candidate. In return, Kaiser states that things just turned out this way, and thanks Inieta due to his odd behavior actually being beneficial to her for once, which Inieta finds amazing.

Believing that he deserves a reward, Inieta asks Kaiser for a favor, which catches her attention. Inieta asks if he could turn the alligator guy into his servant, but Kaiser answers that allowing him to do so would be a bit difficult to do, which confuses the Arie Family member.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_96.jpg
Kaiser plans to put Viole's captured companions up for auction at the festival

Kaiser explains that the upcoming festival is going to be special because a FUG Slayer Candidate, as well as a Jahad Princess, are going to be a part of it. As a result, the more valuable goods the station has, the better the festival will be. She gives Inieta the bad news that this is why she can't hand the alligator over to him, which leaves Inieta silent. Kaiser then announces that the three hostages they now have (Rak, Ehwa and Danhwa) are going to be put up for auction at the festival.

Variel asks if Kaiser's planning to lure Viole to her by putting his companions up for auction as the bait, which Kaiser answers that while her main target is Viole, getting rid of Princess Endorsi is also a must. Kaiser states that she plans to steal away Viole's name in front of everyone at the auction, as well as defeat Endorsi Jahad as a bonus. She assures the remaining Ten Bosses that she has a plan, and asks that they just keep waiting it out while keeping an eye on the hostages until the festival gets underway. In return, Lulu begins to laugh finding it great that something interesting is about to happen. He figures that the bids at the auction are going to be unbelievably high given that such pricey names have appeared for this festival.

Lulu continues to laugh knowing that they're about to make a ton of money at the next auction. He laughs so hard to the point of not being able to breath any further, which the other Ten Bosses call him an idiot for. Kaiser thinks things over, and states to herself that Jue Viole Grace still doesn't know anything about this station, or who it's true ruler is. She figures that soon enough, Viole is going to realize just how terrifying Name Hunt Station truly is.

    Team Bam Arrives at the No-name Area 

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_97.jpg
Boro and Sachi investigate what happened to Rak, Ehwa, and Danhwa

Meanwhile, Bam, Khun, and Sia, get off their transport platform, and have finally arrived at the area for the no-names. Walking along the path to the residence, Khun points out how it's already evening at this point. Bam asks Sia if everyone else made it to the lodge ok, which Sia finds bizarre that there have been any no-names around to greet them. Suddenly, the three of them see smoke in the distance, and are left confused as to what they're looking at.

The location giving off smoke is the spot where Inieta fought against Rak, Ehwa, and Danhwa. The Boro, Sachi, and Iruroe group are seen having arrived at the spot to investigate what happened. Seeing the remains of Ehwa's Yeon flames burning around the area, Boro confirms that something bad must have happened to their three companions. Blood is also seen left behind on the ground, which Boro figures that a battle obviously took place here, but doesn't seem to have amounted to any deaths. Sachi figures that this fight was most likely related to one of the Ten Bosses, and wonders if Rak, Ehwa, and Danhwa, were taken away as hostages.

One of the station regulars, a gray-colored bald man with red horns, informs Sachi that his companions were probably taken away to be sold off at the auction, which grabs Sachi's attention. The gray-colored Regular, named Red Gramon, explains that the auction is an event that takes place at every Name Hunt Station festival.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_98.jpg
Gramon explains that Viole's companions are probably going to be auctioned off

The auction being a place where the station takes money from the Tower families in exchange for names of Regulars who got themselves trapped at Name Hunt Station. Gramon also points out how stolen names from the Ten Great Families would sell for a substantial amount since the main families would dish out large payments so that they can get back Great Family members that they believe are worth saving.

Sachi asks if what Gramon's implying is that Rankers buy names of people trapped at Name Hunt Station, which Gramon answers to be the case, and that it's one of the means to allow people who's names have been stolen to finally leave this place. However, the catch is that whoever the Regular gets sold off to must now forever live as property to the Ranker that bought the name, which is another one of the rules that go beyond just Name Hunt Station. Gramon warns Sachi and company that if Viole's companions get sold off in the upcoming auction, the worst-case scenario is that he will never see those companions ever again. Sachi thinks Gramon's explanation over, and states how the auction sounds like human trafficking. He adds that while he's heard rumors about how dangerous Name Hunt Station is, he never expected it would be this bad. A moment later, Bam, Khun, and Sia arrive at the spot where the fight against Inieta took place, which grabs Sachi and company's attention. Sachi asks where Bam has been all this time, but the latter asks what happened here, to which Sachi answers that it looks like a fight took place here while everyone was on their way to the no-name residence.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_99.jpg
Bam and company discuss their current situation at the no-name residence

Bam asks what he means by that, which Sachi states that they believe that one of the Ten Bosses made an appearance here. Sachi informs Bam and company of the bad news that it appears Rak, Ehwa, and Danhwa, lost the fight here, and were captured by the enemy, which shocks Bam and Khun knowing that people as strong as Rak and Ehwa got captured.

Some time after, Bam and company get a room at the no-name residence and go over their current situation with Sachi's group and Team Nobic. Khun is left irritated claiming that he never expected this to happen, especially when it comes to Rak getting taken hostage. Sachi replies that they didn't expect some of their companions to get caught either, and asks what happened on Bam and company's end to arrive here so late. Khun answers that they ran into a bit of trouble with another group of companions (Team Shibisu) that they discovered to be at Name Hunt Station as well. Sachi asks what he means by that, which Khun explains that Team Shibisu is a rival team also after Kaiser's name, and that they may end up having to fight against them at some point.

Confused about possibly fighting against allies, Sachi asks if they're really going to be fighting friends over Kaiser's name, which Khun answers to be the case, but never imagined that things would get so messed up due to Rak and company getting captured. Nobic admits he's come to understand what's going on, and regrets ever deciding to help Team Shibisu, but Khun reassures him that they made the right choice given that Shibisu's group saved their lives from Chigrinsky, and that their actions allowed them to see a bit of what Kaiser is capable of.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_100.jpg
Gramon warns Bam and company that Inieta is from the Great Arie Family

Finding it unbelievable that Rak and Ehwa would lose so easily, Bam asks who it could have been amongst the Ten Bosses that defeated them, which Gramon answers that rumors amongst no-name witnesses claim that it was the one named Arie Inieta. Not knowing that Bam is Viole, Gramon remains confused as to why a boy is amongst their meeting.

The revelation that they're up against a member of the Great Arie Family shocks Bam and company, which Gramon explains that Inieta arrived at Name Hunt Station about 100 years ago, and easily secured a spot amongst the Ten Bosses. He adds that while there's many rumors as to how a powerful Arie Family member ended up here, the one thing everyone knows for sure is that he's really strong. Gramon also states that he's not sure why the Great Arie Family hasn't gotten him out of Name Hunt Station yet, or if Inieta is simply choosing to stay put, but the obvious is that a powerful Great Family member has continued to remain at the station. He leaves off warning Bam and company that Inieta is the station Boss whose skills Kaiser truly acknowledges.

Bam remains surprised by the mention of the Great Arie Family, which Khun agrees that they're dealing with someone from Hoaqin's family, who has the most powerful bloodline amongst the Ten Great Families. He warns Bam that it appears they now have another strong enemy they got to watch out for.

    Name Hunt Station Festival Setup 

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_101.jpg
Variel of the Ten Bosses places a lock seal on the hostage container

Khun is left struggling to decide what he should do now since he never thought Rak would end up getting captured. However, his thought is interrupted as Bam and company begin to feel the room they're in begin to shake. Outside, a confused Vespa, who's still in her tree carrying Lauroe, watches something amongst Name Hunt Station shoot off into the air. At the named lodge, Team Shibisu feel their room shaking as well, which Shibisu figures that these vibrations could only mean one thing. He figures that it must finally be time for the event to begin. Meanwhile, Vespa continues to watch the object fly up from Name Hunt Station, and is able to confirm that the island platform with Kaiser's Gallery is what's rising into the air.

From the no-name lodge, Bam and company also see an island platform flying into the air, which Khun confirms to be Kaiser's Gallery. Gramon explains that the preparations for the station festival has begun, which causes Khun to ask what he means by that. In return, Gramon states that this always happens on the day of the festival where Kaiser's Gallery will float into the air breaking away from Name Hunt Station in order to become an isolated island. The reason this goes down is so that Regulars can't approach the Gallery if they're deemed to not be qualified to participate in the festival. At another location, Variel of the Ten Bosses is seen putting a key symbol on a large gray cylinder stating that the sealing process is complete.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_102.jpg
Preparing for the festival, Kaiser's Gallery and the auction island rise from the station

Inieta and Lulu are seen listening nearby as Variel informs them that at this point, no one will be able to open the cylinder, which Kaiser congratulates him for. Within the locked gray cylinder is the hostages, Rak, Ehwa, and Danhwa. Figuring that Viole losing some of his companions hurt the Slayer Candidate's pride, Kaiser states that it's about time to send their enemies the invitation. Inieta continues to remain silent thinking about the alligator who gave him a rough time.

Back to the no-name lodge, Bam and company look up at the two massive island platforms now floating in the air. One of which is Kaiser's Gallery platform while the second is a much more massive floating platform slightly below the former. Khun notes how one of the platforms is obviously Kaiser's Gallery chamber, but remains confused about the other more massive platform. He also notices several new objects floating towards the two islands now floating in the air. Gramon explains that the massive island they see alongside Kaiser's Gallery island is the location where the auction is going to be held. He also explains how the objects currently floating towards the auction island are floating ships carrying the auctioneers who will be participating there.

Bam asks what he means by auctioneers, which Gramon explains that they're people sent from each of the families to head to Name Hunt Station in order to buy the names of Regulars they believe to have value. Buying the names of Regulars catches Bam's attention, which Gramon states that overall, it's basically a human auction. Gramon continues to explain that the auctioneers, who are Rankers, assign values to the selected candidates who are put up for auction.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_103.jpg
Gramon explains how Rankers will bet on names at the festival's Auction House

The auctioneers then buy the names if they consider the price worth it. As a result, it's practically the only way for no-names to ever truly escape from the 39th Floor station. He also adds that the Ten Great Families will go to great lengths to spend large sums of money in order to keep members that end up trapped at Name Hunt Station from ending up someplace else.

Explaining how the auction works, Gramon states to Bam and company that eventually, eight floating ships will soon arrive at the auction island. These eight floating ships are what house the auctioneers who will go about bidding on Regulars who are put up for grabs. Within the auction island is a location known as the Auction House where the auctioneer Rankers will gather to watch the festival unfold, and begin assigning certain values to certain selected candidates. However, Gramon also adds that the reason it's called a festival overall is because the selected candidates being put up to auction will usually battle it out.

Gramon explains that the festival will not hesitate to make auction items battle it out in order to show off their talents and abilities to the auctioneers looking to buy their name. As a result, the people being auctioned off could end up having to fight their own companions if it means that doing so will allow them to finally escape Name Hunt Station. Khun admits he's got a general understanding of the festival, and asks if what he heard is correct that the auction items battle it out in order to prove themselves to the auctioneers. Gramon answers that this is the case, but also reminds them that if someone was to appear at the festival with all the names of the Ten Bosses, they would be allowed to issue a challenge against Kaiser. However, the latter doesn't ever come into play since no one has ever been able to challenge Kaiser the past 1000 years.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_104.jpg
Kaiser forcing Viole and Endorsi to duel at the festival, or else the hostages die

High above Name Hunt Station, a large black tube from the Gallery island is seen shooting off of it, and connects to the auction island platform below it in order to create a path to travel between the two islands. Suddenly, a voice announcer is heard asking for everyone on Name Hunt Station to pay attention, which Khun instantly recognizes to be Kaiser's speaking. Kaiser informs the people of the station that the festival will begin on the auction island tomorrow at 5:00pm. However, she also informs them all that a special event has been prepared that everyone will be interested in. A battle between a Slayer Candidate from FUG, and a Jahad Princess.

Khun looks to his Pocket, and remains confused by what he's seeing a message that reads a duel between FUG's Jue Viole Grace and Endorsi Jahad will take place at the Auction House tomorrow at 5:00pm, and that the winner will receive special items as a reward. Meanwhile on Team Shibisu's side, Shibisu also sees the duel message pop on on his Pocket, which leaves him confused as well. Kaiser explains that the winner of the duel will have the right to take the names of the items being put up for auction. However, the loser will lose their name, and will be put up for auction to be bid on by the auctioneers. Kaiser reveals that the item reward for winning the duel is Viole's three companions (Rak, Ehwa, and Danhwa). Shibisu remains shocked, finding it unbelievable that a showdown for hostage items has been set up between Bam and Endorsi as Kaiser states that given how interesting this event is, she hopes that many people will appear to watch the duel.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_105.jpg
Shilial and Lilial finding Kaiser's plan to be a good one

The station warlord assures the people of Name Hunt Station that anyone who still has a name will be allowed to watch the event. However, Kaiser also sends out a warning that if neither Viole or Endorsi show up at the festival for their duel, the no-show will be considered to have lost, and the three items will be completely disposed of as a result.

At this point, Kaiser ends the announcement. Amongst Bam and company at the no-name lodge, they all look down at their Pockets at the message about the duel between Viole and Endorsi. They question what Kaiser is up to forcing the two of them to fight. At her room, Endorsi is seen looking down at her Pocket as well wondering what dirty trick Kaiser is trying to pull on them. Within Kaiser's Gallery, the red-head of the Lo Po Bia twins points out how Kaiser's plan seems to be to get rid of two powerful foes at once, which the yellow-head twin admits that it sounds like a really good plan.

Back at the no-name lodge, Boro asks what they're supposed to do given that he heard how Endorsi is supposedly one of their companions. Khun answers that since Kaiser knows about the connection between Viole and Endorsi, it's obvious that her plan is to make the two turn against one another. Thinking it over, Khun believes that this is Kaiser attempting to take the lead in the fight against Viole.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_106.jpg
Bam announces that they will save the hostages before the festival starts

He figures that Kaiser most likely doesn't know that Bam's group and Team Shibisu aren't exactly on the best terms at the moment, but knows that forcing Viole and Endorsi to fight it out will be the key to make Kaiser come out on top. Khun also deduces that this is Kaiser going along with Endorsi's challenge from earlier given that the station leader moved the festival timer from 6:00pm to the 5:00pm hour that Endorsi mentioned.

Turning his attention to Bam, Khun asks how they should go about dealing with this situation. Khun also warns him that this is obviously a trap, but given that Bam is probably someone who won't want to accept the duel against Endorsi, it's basically Kaiser challenging them to come rescue the hostages before the start of the station festival. Bam agrees that this is the case, and figures that at this point, they don't have much choice but to break into the auction island before the start of the festival in order to rescue Rak, Ehwa, and Danhwa.

Dan steps forward claiming that his Team Nobic should be the ones who handle the rescue operation given that Kaiser still doesn't know that their team is connected to Bam, which Ran comments that this has become such a pain. Khun agrees with Dan that this would be good to take one of the problems off their back, but warns Team Nobic to be careful as the auction island will also be housing the remaining members of the Ten Bosses. Sachi asks how they're supposed to enter the auction island, to which Gramon answers that any named person on the station is allowed to enter the place apart from heading towards Kaiser's Gallery.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_107.jpg
Gramon and his partner offer to assist Bam's group on the rescue operation

Standing alongside his partner, who's a woman with orange hair, Gramon informs Bam and company that the two of them will lead the way since they know how the auction island is structured. He states that as long as it's all for the purpose of defeated Kaiser, they will do what they can to help out. Gramon's Partner, the orange-haired woman, begins to crack her knuckles in excitement stating that they have a major grudge against Kaiser and the Ten Bosses that they wish to settle. Khun thanks them for the help, and states to Bam and company that they should bring in as many of the named station Regulars as possible that would be useful for this rescue operation. Seeing that everyone's ready, Bam announces that they should head out right away to save the hostages, and defeat Kaiser.

Within the Auction House of the auction island, Ranker auctioneers are seen walking amongst the docked floating ships waiting on standby for the start of the festival. Kaiser is heard sending out an announcement that the auction will begin tomorrow at 5:00pm and hopes that everyone is looking forward to it given that a very big event between Viole and Endorsi is going to start off this festival.

Amongst the Rankers looking down at the arena of the Auction House, a voice is heard pointing out how this stage looks too big for D-rank kids, and asks what it is that Viole and company are trying to accomplish by crawling into Name Hunt Station knowing that Viole's group does nothing but stir up trouble. One of the people next to him interrupts him saying that they're not supposed to smoke here. Revealed to be Bam's FUG Ranker teacher, Jinsung pulls a lollipop out of his mouth pointing out that it's just a sucker, which surprises the one who spoke to him.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arc48_108.jpg
Jinsung among the Rankers who've arrived for the Name Hunt Station auction

Looking down at the Auction House arena, Jinsung isn't able to make sense of what's going on. He questions what went down on the Hell Train to make Viole enter into something as dangerous as Name Hunt Station. Jinsung thinks over how he chose to stop by Name Hunt Station simply because he happened to be passing by it, but never expected to see Viole amongst the current station residents.

The FUG Ranker also notices how high valued names, such as Sachi and Khun, are amongst the residents. Jinsung questions if it should comfort him knowing that Viole hasn't died off to Hoaqin yet, and figures that this would be a great opportunity to intervene at a Hell Train station. However, hearing that a battle between a Slayer Candidate and a Jahad Princess is about to go down catches his attention to the point of claiming that a battle of that caliber is too big for such a trivial stage like the Name Hunt Station's Auction House.

Meanwhile at the no-name residence, Bam and company are about ready to head off towards the auction island. Khun asks Gramon if the festival is always this noisy given all the named people that are heading for the auction island, or if this is just an aberration. Gramon answers that this is a rare case since it's usually only the Ten Bosses, a couple of their servants, and the items up for auction, that head off to the auction island. He also figures that Kaiser is probably aiming for a public execution on Viole and Endorsi, and that the reason she's asked many of the named station Regulars to go to the auction island is so that they don' t realize that the no-names have started a rebellion.
