Character Quotes:
Gray Belt Sequence Commander "Seven"
"You're not wrong...you just existed too soon."
[Act 1: Gray Tape Unsealing]
East Cloud Master Control Hub, Third Strategy Conference Room.
Command code: TS-Φ-7 - Shearer.
Confirm activation.
A platoon of black-clad special operations combatants are awakened from their numbered pods:
Grey Belt One to Ten — "Grey Belt Sequence."
Introduction: The ultimate combat unit for dealing with abnormal mind evolutions and "self-rule shapers."
The officer reads in a low voice:
"Target: Fushimi Blade. Status: Border Awakener.
Level of Judgment: Holder of a Subdimensional Interference Factor.
Action objective: disposition is the top priority, capture is the secondary priority, and structural erasure is executed if sealing fails."
"Release point location: Black Domain - Experimental Layer 7 - Alien Core Contact Layer."
[Act 2: Black Domain Chaos]
Fushimi was practicing his sword.
His "Boundary Breaking Sword Style" had just completed its second form: "Split Pulse Chop — Break Cause Layer."
This reverse chop split the mental space, instantly destroying the enemy's "motivation chain."
Suddenly, the ceiling of the Black Domain shattered.
It wasn't blown apart; rather, it was eliminated by the structure itself.
Ten figures with no identifying marks except for their gray belts descended through the void.
"Gray Belt Sequence, arriving."
Seven took a step forward, blade in hand, and calmly announced,
"Fushimi Blade, you have violated the Tectonic Karma Order. Enter freeze processing immediately."
Fushimi narrowed her eyes.
".... "You guys don't even want to know why I'm fighting?"
Six responds:
"There's no point in knowing. You are beyond the definition of 'meaning.'"
[Act III: Battle of the Black God]
The battle has begun.
Rather than using traditional combat techniques, the Gray Belt Sequence invokes an anti-normalization algorithm to construct their armament.
Their attacks directly "cut" the logic of the sword, rendering the moves ineffective and interrupting the circuits.
Fushimi felt it for the first time.
For the first time, he felt that his sword was being "negated."
But his heart didn't waver.
He closed his eyes, and the remnants of the "World Target" appeared on his sword.
Then, using the last of the "Zero Rise Style," he rolled back the spatial seam of the Boundary Blade into the enemy's spirit-link body.
No. 8 was hit and fainted.
Seven said in a deep voice:
".... "He has been able to attack the rules with his sword."
"Change tactics and initiate phase two."
[Act 4 — Clash of Wills]
The second stage was not a battle, but rather a "mental sealing array."
Fushimi's spirit was pulled into a world of snow-white visions.
There, he saw his mother, Fushimi Mio; Tendo Kyouichi; and all the people he had tried to protect. They smiled at him one by one.
"Put it down. Stop chopping."
"You can't win this world."
Fushimi bowed his head, his fists trembling, and suddenly spoke.
"You are not them."
He slashed through the illusion with his sword.
"The real them would never ask me to 'let go.'"
His mental realm reeled and exploded, infecting Gray Belt Five with a "dream structure infection."
[Epilogue: The Awakening of the Non-Life Body]
Seven stood high in the sky and murmured,
"He is the true Non-Life Body. Unblockable, unpredictable, and impossible to utilize."
Fushimi Blade stood in the center of the blood-drenched battlefield with clear eyes.
He slowly raised his hand and thrust his broken training sword into the ground.
At that moment, the entire Black Domain blacked out for three seconds.
