And finally!

The arena renovation

is complete!

The final battle between god and man. Ragnarok round eight.

The gods have three victories.

Humanity has four victories.

For the first time in history,

the gods have been overtaken by humanity.

To avenge their humiliation,

a god has arrived from the depths of hell.

A cursed god who will bring despair to a defiant humanity.

A god of darkness, born in the shadows.

That gloomy kid's got some serious vibes.

Will those hands bring destruction?

Or prosperity?

Will that mouth devour humans or gods?

Of the seven deadly sins, he's the priest of gluttony.

A ruler of evil spirits.

His cursed power, feared by the gods themselves,

is about to be unleashed at last.

Humanity has given him a name spoken with trembling fear.

That name is

"The Lord of the Flies."

The Lord of the Flies.

Anathema, the one cursed by Satan.

A devil. A devil is coming!

Beelzebub!

BEELZEBUB

He's finally shown up.

Man, that guy's creepy no matter when you see him.

We're relying on this guy? The world really is doomed.

The gods are giving off a weird vibe.

Like, why does everyone hate Beelzebub so much?

That's just the kind of god Beelzebub is.

Now, the human chosen to challenge the dark god from hell,

Beelzebub, the Lord of the Flies,

is this guy!

Huh?

What's going on?

Nobody's coming.

Every single human just has to put on a flashy show.

Honestly!

Challenge accepted!

Born on a stormy night to the sound of roaring thunder,

this "Child of Light" quite literally lit up the earth.

A mind that surpassed human limits

created a new kind of magic called science.

A man who turned illusions into reality,

striving to bring humanity closer to the gods.

With both fear and respect, people called him…

the only magician in human history,

Nikola Tesla!

What is that? A robot?

No, more like a powered suit than a robot.

Wow!

So will the ruler of darkness blot out humanity's budding hope?

Or will the light unleashed by the magician

pierce through the inky darkness?

It's the fateful round eight!

Fight!

LIGHT VS. SHADOW

What's this?

Nikola Tesla is advancing calmly toward Beelzebub!

So you're the Lord of the Flies?

I see.

Not what I imagined from the stories.

This fight promises to be remarkable, perfect for research.

What is he doing?

This might be what you call the pure curiosity of a scientist.

I'm sorry,

but this fight will be unremarkable.

It will simply end with you being broken.

And then you'll win Ragnarok and destroy humanity?

No, non, nein.

Destruction is the height of folly.

It's nothing less than the abandonment of creation.

Even we, imperfect humans, understand that.

The strong will to envision the future.

The noble, beautiful footprints of wisdom.

These are the traits that drive humans to keep creating.

And that's something even you gods cannot stop!

"Wisdom"? "Creation"?

Whatever.

Let's get on with killing already.

What was that?

Suddenly, the ground has cracked open, shattering a pillar to pieces!

Beelzebub unleashed a strike without moving, as if conjured by magic!

"Magic"?

No, non, nein.

That wasn't magic.

It was science.

What does that mean?

That was… science?

What? What was that attack just now?

The ground split open, and he didn't do anything!

What's going on?

It is simply cause and effect.

GALILEO GALILEI

He split open the ground and made the pillar collapse

by using a straightforward law of physics.

That's right.

Vibration!

THOMAS EDISON

I wanted to say that part.

He's using vibration as a weapon?

Vibration? Like this?

How can something like this be a weapon?

Don't you know? For example…

Vibrating sound waves can destroy objects.

They can cause earthquakes that shake the world.

Beelzebub charges in!

Tesla dodges by a hair's breadth!

Vibrations can also transform into an extremely sharp blade.

This super-vibration, capable of tremendous destruction,

is Beelzebub's power.

Palmyra.

Its simplicity makes it endlessly versatile.

Even if you know the trick, countering it is near impossible.

It's that powerful?

That's right.

Even this magnificent body you're so proud of, dear Brother Ares,

would probably be shattered to pieces the moment it touches you.

What a pain in the ass.

Still, who would've thought he'd get this fired up?

It just shows how much Hades meant to him.

That lonely guy only had my brother to rely on.

Beelzebub's edge is razor-sharp!

A strike worthy of a master swordsman!

Even though Tesla seemed to dodge, it's torn through his armor!

I see.

So that's how the ultrasonic cutter works?

A high frequency that slashes through my armor with ease.

Or was it natural frequency?

Whatever it is, it's an impressive power.

If that had hit me directly…

I might have been split in two.

Does that mean a direct hit would be game over?

Can Tesla win against something like that?

Of course he can.

His armored suit was imagined by the greatest mind in human history,

and it was brought to life by Göndul the Wand-Wielder.

In other words, it's a masterpiece of human scientific achievement.

It is a Divine Treasure.

Super Automaton β!

A divine feat that shatters the ground and slices through super-steel.

I must say, your science is magnificent.

Now then, it's our turn.

Next up, "humanity's science"!

Whoa! Tesla closes the distance in a flash!

So cool!

Tesla's punch! An incredible destructive power!

Tesla's relentless assault!

With such overwhelming, destructive force, Beelzebub can only dodge!

That's one of our inventions.

Through Völundr, the life energy of a Valkyrie

is converted into ultra-high voltage within the Super Automaton β.

It's stored in the fist and released instantly.

We call it the Plasma Pulse Punch!

Or "PPP," for short.

That Edison, claiming credit again. Wasn't it Tesla's idea?

ALBERT EINSTEIN

He hasn't changed a bit, has he?

ISAAC NEWTON

They were rivals, after all!

ALFRED NOBEL

MARIE CURIE

Still, the name Plasma Pulse Punch…

It's insanely lame.

Tesla might be terrible at naming things,

but the power is top-notch!

Beelzebub dodges the attack amid a tremendous blast!

What an incredible punch!

This could even crush a god!

It didn't connect, huh?

If it doesn't hit,

it's just a glorified toaster oven spewing smoke.

In that case,

all I need to do is make it connect!

Tesla charges again!

I'm sure I told you.

Our power, science,

can reach the gods!

He's fast!

Plasma Pulse Jet Punch!

Tesla suddenly accelerates and catches Beelzebub!

Sorath Samekh.

It felt like my fist was repelled by something.

A vibration wall, huh? Interesting.

Are you at your limit?

If so,

hurry up and break already.

SORATH VAV

Limit?

In science, there are

no limits!

Plasma Pulse Punch!

The vibration output has increased!

Just like I thought.

You are useless too.

Beelzebub is an otherworldly deity with two faces.

At times, he appears as "Baal,"

a guardian god of fertility, who brings blessed rain.

At other times, he is "Zebul,"

a demon of flies who brings destruction to Earth.

He is both feared and worshiped in the temple of Palmyra.

This is according to Canaanite lore.

Beelzebub is flawless in both offense and defense!

Even Nikola Tesla, in super armor, has been brought to his knees!

Beelzebub is insanely strong!

And with such a thin staff.

Not quite.

That staff is the Divine Treasure that amplifies Beelzebub's abilities.

When wielded with the left hand,

it's a shield strong enough to repel the Heavenly Emperor's thunder hammer.

In the right hand,

it's a sword that destroys even the armor of gods.

It's the Staff of Apomyius.

The left hand? The right hand?

I don't get it.

Beelzebub's ability, "Palmyra," or "the fluttering of demonic wings,"

has different properties depending on which hand you use.

The left hand is for defense. The right for offense.

By tuning the vibrations in this way,

he maximizes the power of both offense and defense.

That staff is both a weapon to enhance the vibrations

and a tool for defense.

So he can attack and defend using just one ability?

That's unfair!

Yes.

That power embodies both "Baal" and "Zebul,"

or in other words, Beelzebub's two faces.

He is, in essence, a god who wields both the ultimate spear and shield.

Magnificent!

The power was much greater than when he used his bare hand.

Fascinating!

It seems that staff is amplifying vibrational energy.

Isn't that right?

He looks thrilled!

Such a bad habit. That science nerd.

How does it work?

Could you lend me that staff?

I'll return it after a quick study.

Sorry, but I don't plan to indulge you any further.

You cannot break me.

No, non, nein.

Rather an arrogant god, aren't you?

The present may belong to you, but the future belongs to us.

Indeed, humans are creatures that always look one or two steps ahead.

What are you trying to say?

It should be nearly full.

Allow me to show you.

The evolution and true value of humanity!

Welcome to the Gematria Zone prison.

GEMATRIA ZONE

It's really bright and pretty!

So cool!

What is that?

The two of them are surrounded by light!

A prison… It really looks like a cage.

An electric cage! Is this an optical illusion?

No, this is an undeniable reality.

What? What's going on?

Look!

Tesla is floating!

Wow.

Yes. Truly incredible.

Science… No, Nikola Tesla's science

is so beautiful!

A prison?

In this world measuring 9.63 meters on each side, you are not the god.

I am.

An illusion! How pretty.

What in the world is happening?

He's floating! Awesome!

How's he doing that? Is it a trick?

No, it's magic!

It's so freaking cool!

No, non, nein.

It's neither magic nor a trick.

That is science.

In 1943, after Nikola Tesla's death,

a vast number of unpublished papers were taken from his home.

Both the FBI and the KGB were rumored to be the culprits.

The two superpowers of the time

desired the "super-science weapons" Tesla was said to have invented.

One of the studies was said to be humanity's eternal dream.

An "antigravity system"

that allows you to manipulate gravity freely.

Antigravity system?

Of course, back then, the materials to make it didn't exist.

But the "antigravity system"

was already complete in Tesla's mind.

The Super Automaton β, created using Göndul as the base material,

was dispersing particles along with its electrical discharges during combat.

These are known as "Super Tesla Particles."

When these particles fill the area, the Tesla Coil reacts,

and the antigravity system can activate.

That's the…

Yes. The prison for gods, the Gematria Zone!

But what exactly are Super Tesla Particles?

No idea.

There is only one who understands.

The only magician in human history, Nikola Tesla.

The Gematria Zone, huh?

Nice.

It suits me.

I wouldn't say that just yet.

Behold the power of my science…

from the best seat in the house!

He's fast!

Tesla's lightning-fast attack!

Beelzebub just avoids a direct strike, but he's been hit!

In the eighth round, the Lord of the Flies, Beelzebub,

takes damage for the first time!
