The victor secures his survival only once he has shattered the hope of his opponent with his own fists...

He must discover the answer for himself and apply what he has learned. After training with a clear mind and doing some self-reflection, Cestvs finds the feeling he's been looking for.

The final fight of the qualifier for the tournament has begun. Cestvs' opponent is Felix the professional gladiator, also known as the Red Storm.

Cestvs attempts to focus on reading his opponent's attacks, but he suffers damage as he takes blow after blow. Meanwhile, Felix doesn't miss the change in Cestvs and demonstrates the true strength of the Red Storm.

June 17, 2021
A close-range fight forces Cestvs up against the wall. Not only does he have nowhere to run, but Cestvs unfortunately injured his ankle when Felix's powerful blows forced him to the ground. "If I can't retreat, then I'll counterattack here!" His efforts appear ineffective as he barely evades Felix's tempestuous blows, waiting for an opportunity to strike back. "No matter how big my disadvantage, as long as there's something I can do, I won't give up!" Just then, Felix's attacks begin to change, and Cestvs finds his golden opportunity.
1x11 - A New Battlefield
June 24, 2021
Cestvs defeats Felix with a miraculous single blow. The defeated Felix tells Cestvs to race up to the top before departing. In Sicily, where the main event will be held, Cestvs is reunited with Emden, who is excited for their rematch, as well as Ruska. Ruska insists that it's impossible for Cestvs to win and that he should withdraw from the tournament, but Cestvs refuses. "These fists are already soaked in blood. All I can do is move forward!" Each fighter carries his own feelings and desires in his heart as the Emperor Nero's tournament begins...
