Chapter : The Final Phase
---
The Chapter begins with a tense atmosphere as President Zeo is escorted to a highly secured safe house beneath the Presidential House.
The President’s family and several key officials are also being taken to safety.
The safe house is fortified, with thick steel doors and multiple guards stationed at the entrance.
Above ground, the Presidential House starts to empty. Many civilians and staff mbers flee the premises to avoid the ongoing destruction caused by Ninja’s relentless attacks.
The thinning crowd makes it easier for Sona and Tayo to navigate the area.
The shifting atmosphere brings a grim determination to Sona’s face. Observing the chaos, she murmurs under her breath, "Thank you, Ninja. I’ll repay this later."

The upgraded robotic ants, guided by Pratham, stealthily take their positions throughout the Presidential House.
Equipped with camouflage technology, the ants blend seamlessly into their surroundings.
As each ant secures its place, its body adjusts, and tiny caras and microphones erge.
These devices begin capturing every sound and movent, sending live feeds back to Pratham and Mikasa in the Internet Dinsion.
Sona and Tayo make their way to the darkened conference hall, a room filled with imposing silence and a faint echo of their footsteps. Noticing the absence of surveillance caras, Sona whispers, "No wonder they don’t use caras here. They must know how easily they can be hacked. Smart. But now, we’ll install our own."
Sona carefully places two ants—one black and one red—on the conference table.
The black ant is stationed to record live audio and video feeds, ensuring that Pratham and Mikasa can monitor all conversations held in the room.
The red ant, equipped with advanced scanning and photographic capabilities, is intended to capture sensitive information, such as classified files and images displayed on the large screen dominating the room.
Satisfied with the placent, Sona nods to Tayo, and they move toward their next target.
Tayo splits off to install ants in other crucial locations, including the President’s office and family quarters. Each ant is ticulously placed to remain hidden while providing maximum coverage.
Within minutes, the entire Presidential House is under surveillance. Tayo returns to Sona, who is monitoring the progress. They observe a heavily guarded gate in one of the hallways. Soldiers with their weapons drawn stand like statues, their expressions stern and unyielding.
Sona gestures toward the gate and asks Tayo, "Do you think we should place surveillance there too?"
Tayo frowns, her wings twitching as she contemplates the risk. "It’s heavily secured. We don’t know what’s behind that gate. Let’s ask Pratham."
Through telepathy, Tayo contacts Pratham, explaining the situation. Pratham’s calm voice responds, "If placing surveillance there jeopardizes the mission, I’d recomnd against it. But the decision is yours. The success of this mission depends on your judgnt."
Tayo exchanges a glance with Sona. "We’ve done enough, Sona. The mission has already been a success. Taking unnecessary risks now isn’t wise."
Sona nods in agreent. "Let’s inform Lord Adam and get his input."
Tayo telepathically contacts Adam, who is stationed near the governnt hideout where Sona and Tayo had earlier stolen the detection device. Adam’s tense deanor imdiately softens as Tayo’s voice fills his mind.
"Lord Adam, we’ve successfully placed surveillance across the Presidential House. But there’s one room heavily guarded, and we’re unsure whether to proceed."
Adam exhales in relief, his initial fears of mission failure dissipating. After a mont of thought, he replies, "You’ve done enough. There’s no need to risk further complications. If the primary surveillance is in place, it’s ti to withdraw. Leave the rest to Ninja."
Tayo relays the decision to Sona and Pratham, who both agree. "Let’s go," Sona says, preparing to teleport.
Sona and Tayo teleport out of the Presidential House, reappearing in the dense forest nearby. Mikasa’s voice echoes in their minds, "The third phase of the mission is complete. Now, all that’s left is the final phase. Ninja, it’s your ti to shine."
Still locked in combat with Logan, Ninja responds telepathically, "Understood. I’ll ensure Lord Adam’s plan succeeds."
The battle intensifies as Ninja deflects Logan’s attacks with precision, each clash of their swords creating sparks that light up the battlefield. Though the chaos rages on, Ninja remains focused.
His purpose is clear: create enough of a diversion to ensure the mission’s success, no matter the cost.
The Chapter opens with Ninja and Logan still locked in an intense battle outside the Presidential House. Ninja’s swift strikes clash with Logan’s equally powerful counterattacks, creating a storm of energy that reverberates throughout the battlefield.
As confirmation of the mission’s third phase being complete reaches him, Ninja takes a deep breath. His mind flashes back to Adam’s instructions, given monts before leaving for the mission.
Flashback:
Adam, seated calmly in his chair, speaks with unwavering authority. "Ninja, if all three phases of the mission are successful, I want you to deliver a ssage to the world. Let everyone know that the Union is their only sanctuary. Tell them that we will protect them from the governnt’s tyranny."
Ninja, kneeling before Adam, bows his head in acknowledgnt. "I understand, Lord Adam. I will not fail you."
Returning to the present, Ninja tightens his grip on his swords.
Logan, noticing a shift in Ninja’s energy, yells mid-attack, "What’s wrong with you today? Why are you holding back so much? Is this all you’ve got?"
In response, Ninja skillfully deflects Logan’s blade mid-air with his sword, his voice calm yet firm. "You want to see my full strength? Very well, I’ll show you."
Ninja’s movents suddenly beco sharper, faster, and more deliberate. His right-hand sword clashes violently with Logan’s, sending a shockwave rippling through the air. In the sa motion, Ninja channels energy into his left-hand sword, releasing a powerful white flash aid at Logan’s midsection.
Caught off guard, Logan quickly drops to the ground, narrowly avoiding the flash. Using the montum from his fall, he rolls to his side and regains his footing, panting. "You’re finally taking this seriously. Let’s see what you’ve got!"
As Ninja unleashes another devastating strike, Logan leaps into the air, spinning to avoid the attack. The ground beneath him explodes, leaving a massive crater.
Logan, exhilarated by the fight, charges at Ninja, his sword radiating a fierce blue energy. He swings his blade with imnse force, sending a glowing arc toward Ninja.
Ninja ets the attack head-on, crossing his two swords in front of him. With a surge of energy, he releases his own white flash. The two energy blasts collide mid-air, canceling each other out in a spectacular burst of light.
At a distance, dia journalists record the battle, broadcasting it live to the entire country. The clash of titans, the destruction, and the raw display of power captivate millions of viewers.
The scene shifts to Adam’s parents, Ricky and Rachel, watching the battle on TV. Anxiety lines their faces as they witness the chaos unfolding. Rachel whispers, "What has our world co to? It was peaceful just yesterday... and now this?"
The focus returns to the battlefield, where both Ninja and Logan stand a few feet apart, breathing heavily. Sweat drips from their brows, and their weapons glow faintly from overuse.
Taking a deep breath, Ninja suddenly steps back and raises his voice, loud enough for everyone watching to hear. "To all those watching , especially my fellow Power Holders... hear my words!"
Logan, who had been preparing another attack, halts mid-step. Though confused, he lowers his blade slightly, intrigued by Ninja’s words. Logan’s respect for Ninja compels him to listen.
The scene shifts to the Presidential Safe House, a small, reinforced steel room deep underground. President Zeo, his family, and several officials sit in tense silence, surrounded by ard guards.
On a large screen in the room, the live broadcast of the battle continues. Zeo, leaning forward, focuses intently as Ninja begins to speak. "Let’s hear what he has to say," he commands.
Ninja raises one of his swords, pointing it toward Logan. "There are two reasons why I’m here today. First, I ca to fight Logan, the governnt’s prized swordsman. He represents the very system that oppresses us."
Logan is very happy to hear that the Ninja is giving him so much importance and he starts respecting the Ninja a lot and he feels even more like fighting with the Ninja.
Caras pan to Logan, who stands motionless, his face unreadable but his eyes locked on Ninja.
Ninja lowers his sword and continues, his voice steady and commanding. "Second, I’m here to deliver a ssage to every Power Holder and every citizen watching this."
He pauses, ensuring his words sink in. "The governnt will not protect you. It will hunt you, enslave you, and use you. But there is hope. Join the Union, and we will protect you. We will give you a sanctuary. Together, we can stand against tyranny and reclaim our freedom."
The cara captures the determination in Ninja’s glowing eyes as the Chapter concludes.
