Emperor Muge is infuriated when General Death Gaia's army is defeated by a group of guerrillas stationed in Peru over and over again. In response, he gives Shapiro direct command over Death Gaia.

The Zorbados Muge Empire commences their initial attack on Earth and eliminates nearly all of the planet's defensive forces. All that stands in their way is a newly formed special mobile division: the Cyber-Beast Force.

Yoko finds Rakushun in En, accepts his kindness and opens up to him. Sugimoto feels lost without the Hinman who translates the language but nice people in En take her to the government’s office for help. After getting a government’s pass, Yoko tries to sleep in a school and surprises Rakushun. A Kai-Kyaku teacher named Heki Rakujin tells Yoko that only the immortals and monsters have no language problems, and Yoko thinks she is a monster. Rakushun also gives her new information about 12 kingdoms.

Ko-o forces sick Korin to put a Hinman spirit in Sugimoto to kill Yoko. The group of Shu-Sei kindly asks Yoko to take the ship to En with them, but Yoko chooses not to, so she won’t put them in trouble. Kotetsu, once the critic of Yoko in the group, saw Yoko’s hardwork and prepares another ship for her to catch up with the group. Sugimoto finds Yoko but she is surprised how much Yoko has changed. Sugimoto and Yoko let their feelings out in battle. Then a sea monster attacks.

Monsters attack Yoko and Rakushun on their way to En Kingdom. When Yoko sees people push their way through to survive, she realizes she cannot live for others. After defeating the monsters, Yoko finds Rakushun on the ground and gets an evil idea to finish him off so he won’t report her to the police. She escapes but Aozaru accuses her and forces her to face her own demon. When she realizes the true meaning of trust, she successfully slashes Aozaru. Yoko goes back to save Rakushun and runs into the group of Shu-Sei she met before. She takes a trip with them like a new person and reaches a harbor to get on the ship to En.

Since Yoko grew up in Horai, she can not believe in the Heaven’s Will, yet, she is afraid of repeating the mistake Shoko made for the same suspicion. En-o tells Yoko a story about a man he calls another him. En-o and Atsuyu both had a cowardly father. Atsuyu got rid of his father for the people and En-o let the people die for his father. Atsuyu demands a new emperor status above the king for the people, and En-o faces him to see who deserves the king. En-o survives and Atsuyu lies in his grave. En-o’s story does not give Yoko answers but a plenty of inspiration.

Shoryu and Rokuta run into each other in the underground maze of Ganboku Castle. Rokuta smells blood in Koya, senses that Koya killed a man and feels sad. When Gen State’s soldiers start cutting the dike in the upper reach of Rakusui River, the farmers in the area become angry and fight the state soldiers, then the king’s soldiers come to their rescue. After ordering to cut the dike, Atsuyu completely loses trust by his officers. When En-o shows up, Atsuyu shamelessly starts blaming others and begs for mercy. When En-o gives him one and turns around, Atsuyu tries to kill him and gets killed. En-o promises to Rokuta and Koya a rich and peaceful kingdom.

The king’s soldiers’ number has grown to 20,000, and the Royal Amy’s in Kankyu, 30,000. Shoryu is among the enemy’s soldiers, and he sees the king’s soldiers send workers to build a dike for Rokusui River. Atsuyu suspects that the king’s soldiers are trying to flood his castle, and orders his man to cut the dike in the upper reach of the river to sink a town. Atsuyu’s female officer, Meishin, tells Rokuta that Atsuyu has changed and helps him escape. Rokuta wanders into the underground maze and runs into Gen State’s Leader and his double whose tongue was cut off. Meishin questions Atsuyu’s move to sink a town and Koya cold-heartedly feeds her to his monster.

Rokuta agrees with Atsuyu’s purpose and to be taken hostage by him, but disagrees with his demand to establish an emperor position above the king. Battle will be unavoidable. Rokuta asks Koya to stop Atsuyu, but Koya owes Atsuyu and also Atsuyu believes in his action, so he cannot stop him. En-o surprises his officers with his bold plan to deal with the crisis. Rokuta is a Kirin, a creature of justice and mercy, so he does not like authorities, but Ribi convinces him that Shoryu is doing a great job as a king when officers are not looking. Ribi tries to kill herself to let Rokuta out of jail and also to show her loyalty to the king.

En-o is at the grave of a man named Atsuyu. He tells Yoko a story about him. After Shoryu becomes En-o, En Kingdom regains peace. He is always among the people to listen to their voice and catches the rumor of Gen State’s rebellion. Enki, Rokuta, gets kidnapped by Koya, a boy who was raised by a monster like himself. The boy’s boss, Atsuyu is in charge of Gen State, and asks Rokuta to be his hostage so En-o will accept his demand for riparian work for the people in Gen State.

Yoko visits En-o at Mt. Sho to ask what to do with Shoko who abused his political power to test the Heaven’s will to see if Yoko deserves to be a queen. Kantai delivers personal letters from Yoko and Shokei to Gekkei, Kei State’s Leader, currently in charge of Ho’s temporary government. Gekkei has a dilemma about taking the throne and is about to leave the government because he led the rebels to defeat the king who was too harsh on criminal punishment yet he admired his pure vision. He killed the king for the people but he feels that if he takes the throne now, his action will no longer make sense to himself. Kantai, who was also a rebel in Kei, suggests the establishment of “a government in the moon shadow”(waiting for the sun(= king) to come up).

Keiki comes to Takuho and Yoko rides him to the Royal Army to prove her legitimacy as the queen. Yoko orders the Royal Army and State Army to go arrest Gaho and Seikyo and save Enho. Yoko goes back to the rebels to thank them for doing the job for her. When Yoko goes back to the palace, she asks Shokei and Suzu to join her, appoints Kokan as the Chosai, Shohaku(Enho) as Taishi, Kantai as the Royal Army General, and Saibo as the Wa State’s leader. She also bans bowing because bowing as a rule does more harm than good to everyone. She believes that one must have courage and earn respect, and that’s good for the kingdom.

It turns out that the former Chosai, Seikyo, controlled Gaho and Shoko. Seikyo sends the Royal Army to fight the rebels in Takuho not knowing that Kei-o, Yoko is among them. Suzu, Shokei and Yoko can relate to the Takuho guys not joining the rebellion because it used to be more comfortable for them to play a victim than to make a courageous move for fair treatment. Kosho and Sekki debate over whether to help the villagers under attack by the enemy, which will put them in bigger trouble. Yoko, Suzu and Shokei debate over whether to save a boy being killed, knowing that others are being killed elsewhere. They all conclude to do the best they can to live by their principle. Yoko believes results should be better achieved by discouraging the enemy without killing them, and that’s why she decided to take Shoko to court instead of killing him. Yoko reveals her identity as Kei-o to Suzu and Shokei, and Suzu and Shokei reveal theirs to the villagers who blamed the rebels for starting trouble for them.

The rebels led by Kosho and Yoko take Shoko’s castle and arrest Shoko. Yoko decides to let Shoko live for confessing the corruption in higher places of the government. The castle is, however, already surrounded by Shoko’s soldiers and the State Army’s main force is arriving soon. Suzu sends Asano to get Kantai’s help in Meikaku but he gets stopped by Summer Officers. When the rebels try to force their way out of the castle at dawn, the strong State’s cavalries strike. Then, Kantai’s force arrives to help them. It turns out that Kantai has a bigger plan than arresting Shoko.

Yoko joins a rebel to defeat Shoko. The rebel break up Shoko’s 3000 soldiers by raiding one of Shoko’s houses and storage first, leaving the letter “Shu-on”(meaning Death-to-Shoko.) Kantai and Shokei hear about the revolt and they’re worried about Gaho’s support for Shoko. Yoko and the rebel raid Shoko’s another house as a decoy, and Yoko runs into Asano there. Now that Asano is with Shoko, Yoko decides to stick with her mission as a queen, leaves him and goes to Shoko’s Go Castle.

While Yoko visits Wa State, the Rike in Ei State is raided. Rangyoku is killed; Enho is kidnapped; Kei-Kei is wounded and taken to Kimba Palace. Yoko investigates Ro, the man who visited Enho before, but he’s gone. Shokei is asked to sell Toki’s to make money to hire soldiers while Suzu is asked to buy Tokis. They meet and realize they share the same purpose, except that Shokei corrects Suzu’s misconception about Kei-o. Kosho’s group suspects Yoko probing for information, and they move to a different hotel. Yoko gets suspicious of them for kidnapping of Enho, but after Kosho’s explanation, Yoko joins his group for rebellion.

Shokei is saved by a man named Kantai. Kantai tells her about Shoko and Gao, and Shokei feels obligated to report them to Kei-o, so Kei-o won’t repeat the same mistake of being ignorant as she did. Suzu and Kosho talk about the two tyrants and completely agree on negative views on them. Suzu tells Yoko about Kokan’s good reputation among people and Yoko gets frustrated about her decision she made on him in the past. Yoko goes back to the Rike to find dead Rangyoku and injured Kei-Kei.

Suzu decides to revenge on Shoko and Kei-o for Seishun. Yoko senses someone’s after her and investigates Wa State. Suzu tries to kill Kokan but is stopped by Kosho and his group, who turn out to have the same purpose of beating Shoko. Shokei stops by Wa State’s capital, Meikaku, to witness a criminal being nailed. That reminds her of her past and she throws a rock at a guard. Yoko happens to be there and tries to save her.

Suzu cannot accept Shoko getting away with murdering Seishun, and decides to revenge him. Yoko also finds out about Shoko’s evil behavior from Enho. Shokei goes to Kei and hears people complain about new Kei-o and unimproved living conditions in the kingdom, but also hears that Wa State’s Shi-Sui will give refugees a piece of land and citizenship. Suzu finds out that Shoko is protected by a person in a higher place, and decides to revenge Seishun on Shoko and Kei-o.

Rakushun takes Shokei to the border of Ryu and En. After Shokei lost her parents, she had no idea why she had to suffer so much in poverty, hated by many, but Rakushun teaches her the responsibility to the people, which was missing in Shokei’s family’s administration. Kei-o, Yoko, goes to live among the people in the kingdom for learning experience, and Rakushun completely believes she will be back on the throne as a better queen. Shokei wishes she had that kind of care and trust she never had, but Rakushun advises her to move on and start a new life. Asano also talks to Shoko about how wrong the world is and they start a scheme.
