0.33: An Unlikely tag-team.

Sayori looked towards the surprised Seto. "I…what?"

"Where is Gaiyato? Please answer me now, Seto!"

"What seems to be the reason for all the commotion?" Skiros entered the building with his team. "May I ask what a Rebirth member is doing in our hideout?"

"Mister, I'm sorry for the commotion. It's just that I am looking for-"

"What you seek is not in this building, right? If so, I will kindly ask you to leave."

Miku got irritated. "Look, sir. I understand the situation, but I need critical information from Seto."

Skiros widened his eyes after hearing his name. "SETO?! WHERE THE HELL WERE YOU?!"

"C-Captain! I was…in the bathroom?"

They all went quiet. "Y-Yes, sir, he was in the bathroom. I can testify since he asked me to help him get there." One of the members said.

"I see. We were just about to leave; oh, and any words on Eunice?"

At Seto's request, all the members began weeping and mourning the bad news.

"Vice Captain is dead…boss?"

"This can't be…"

"Just when things were getting brighter for us."

("I see, thank goodness Azahii finished him off.") Skiros sighed and walked to the vehicle. "Seto, let's get a move on. And as for the Rebirth lady, you'll be charged for trespassing without a permit if you don't leave this instant!"

"Trespassing?! How is that even true?! I walked through the front door!!"

"ARE YOU ARGUING AGAINST YOUR SUPERIOR?!"

Miku bit her tongue and walked away. "If I find out anything bad happened to Gaiyato, you won't hear the end of it, Seto!"

SLAM!!!

...

"My word, what was that all about?" Skiros asked Seto.

"Uh…I have no idea, captain."

He shook his head and climbed into the vehicle. "Doesn't matter, I hate Rebirth members anyways…"

BOOM!! SLASH!! BOOM!!

The nonstop explosions echoed through the city as Gaiyato kept battling against Cob and his subordinates.

STEP!

He took a break behind the train stop. "That's odd…"

Azahii hid behind a bus. "What seems to be the problem?"

"…I killed him earlier this week, but this time, not only is he stronger…HE DOESN'T WANT TO DIE!!"

"Are you seriously begging him to die?" Azahii asked sarcastically.

"Of course not, let's get serious here. I know this is all staged because my attacks connect countless times, yet he survived them…"

"Maybe you didn't try hard enough?"

"It's not about trying, isn't that obvious, Azahii? You are barely trying to injure them. Don't think I wasn't watching you!"

"No, I was. That guy in front of us is the Major 2 of Hajiman; it makes sense why he's so tough."

Cob spat more webs on the streetlights while hanging above the ground. "Those webs of his absorb spiritas on contact, meaning he eats up any attacks thrown at him from long range."

"You seem to know a lot about him…"

"Benefits of being part of Rebirth. I know my opponents before we set foot on the field,"

BWOOSH!!

Gaiyato fired another wind bullet toward Cob. "Oh, forget it! I'm going head-on!"

"Alright, I'll do what I can, too," Azahii responded.

"…" Gaiyato suddenly stopped. "...I have a better idea…"
