Summary

Mizuki throws herself in Nyan's path to keep him off Waganma and Food Battler Futoshi, but the cadre bats her into the air. Gearsper, his psychic gift suddenly awakened, softens her landing and spends the last of his power on a counterattack, ripping apart nearby buildings, shaping the debris into jagged spears, and burying Nyan under them. The surge of power registers with Fubuki elsewhere. With his helmet cracked, Gearsper drops.

Waganma crows about the heroes' apparent win, but Nyan wriggles free of the rubble and rakes Futoshi's belly open. He tells the boy his threat level is Dragon, scaring the child so badly that he wets himself, then hauls the pair off to kill Waganma in front of everyone. A blur of a projectile snaps the cadre's grip loose, loops back, and lands in the hand of Drive Knight. As Futoshi and Waganma bolt for cover and the hostage jeers at the monster's rotten luck, Sekingar watches gratefully. Drive Knight invokes Tactical Transformation: Chariot and charges Nyan, who only remarks on how strange the S-Class are.
