Nasu Squad 2

Short Summary
The Rank Battle between Nasu Squad, Tamakoma Second, and Suzunari First rages on.

Long Summary
Suzunari First loses a huge advantage due to Chika blowing up the bridge, so Murakami decides to take down everyone on his side. He clashes with Kumagai. Commenting on the battle, Jin notes that ability was being tested in this battle, unlike the other battle, where the strategy was tested. Yūma joins the fray, trying to get Murakami into the river, though he fails. Hiura prepares to shoot one of them.

Meanwhile, Nasu attacks Osamu. Using the Viper, she nullifies Osamu's ability to hide since she could make the bullets change trajectory. Betsuyaku shoots at her, but misses. Shiki sends the pictorial information to her, so she can attack Betsuyaku, who is about to get hit, when Kuruma saves him. Tachikawa notes that Nasu's prowess with the Viper allows her to create a bullet trajectory for any situation, something only she and Izumi could do. He adds that Nasu Squad had the advantage since the Attackers were on one side, and the Snipers' abilities were neutralized by the storm, making it a battle of Gunners. Osamu orders Chika to remain hidden and shoot only if necessary, and for Yūma to continue fighting. Osamu declares that he would get points.

Konami watches the match from the base and wonders out loud whether it was a bad idea to destroy the bridge. Karasuma argues that they have lowered Nasu Squad's advantage by this. Konami brings up the point that Yūma is their only key to victory. Rindō asks Hyuse what he thinks, to which he responds that it was simply a battle where the weak would lose.
