"Ryuuto! Lord Swallow will tear you apart!"
Galactus opened his maw wide—
—and the Earth itself fractured.
Cracks split the land like the end of days.
Cosmic suction ripped buildings from their roots, the sky distorting as if reality were being inhaled.
He looked monstrous.
He looked unstoppable.
He looked down on Ryuuto like he'd already died.
With a roar, he slammed both titanic fists forward, pulverizing the Chakra Tiger that had been charging at him. The spectral beast exploded into vapor and vanished.
"See that?" Galactus bellowed triumphantly.
"That's what happens when you challenge ME.
Now, it's your turn."
The titan opened his mouth again—
—and the world bent toward him.
Streets collapsed. Cars skidded like toys.
Everyone except Ryuuto was pinned helplessly to the ground.
Ryuuto… smiled.
"You really don't learn, do you?
Eat all that stuff if you want, fat man—aren't you scared your stomach's gonna pop?"
Galactus's eyebrow twitched in fury.
Ryuuto pushed off the shattered pavement—
BOOM—
and shot toward Galactus like a blazing comet.
Galactus felt something he had never once felt facing any mortal:
A heartbeat of fear.
But he couldn't retreat now.
He'd already declared victory.
His pride wouldn't let him step back.
"Come, insect! Use whatever tricks you have!"
Galactus opened his mouth wider, suction intensifying.
He couldn't wait to swallow Ryuuto whole.
Ryuuto scoffed.
"Idiot. You think I've even started trying?
Let me show you a REAL move."
Galactus blinked.
"What—?"
He watched in confusion as Ryuuto pulled out a gleaming golden medal and clipped it to his chest.
Something ancient pulsed in the air.
"Boy, what are you planning?! It doesn't matter! You won't escape!"
Galactus panicked.
Light gathered in his throat—
—condensing into a blinding white beam aimed straight at Ryuuto's skull.
Ryuuto didn't flinch.
"Time to settle this."
Summoning Technique — Triple Rashomon!
Three colossal demonic gates erupted from the ground—
snarling, fanged, and towering like nightmares—
slamming down between him and Galactus's beam.
BOOM!!!!
The white beam crashed into the three gates.
All three held.
None budged.
Galactus stared, dumbfounded.
"What… what IS THAT?!"
Before he could react—
KA-BOOOOOOM
A blast of dust and shockwaves blasted outward, forcing Galactus to shield his eyes.
Ryuuto burst from the smoke, eyes blazing.
"Your turn."
Forbidden Technique — Dead Soil Seal!
Galactus froze as a massive spectral coffin materialized in the air.
Ghostly hands—thousands of them—shot from the coffin like a tidal wave of claws.
"WHAT—NO!
I DON'T WANT TO GO IN THERE!
STOP! STOP!!!"
The hands latched onto him.
Dragged him.
Pulled him toward the yawning coffin.
Galactus thrashed violently, but it was useless—
he was being pulled apart, stripped of his cosmic dominance.
"Bye. Hope we don't meet again."
Ryuuto clenched his fist—
The coffin slammed shut.
BOOM—
—and sank into the earth, vanishing completely.
Silence fell.
Utter, perfect silence.
Even time seemed to stop.
Ryuuto exhaled slowly, brushing dust off the dimmed King Medal on his chest.
"Damn shame it needs cooldown… If I could spam Forbidden Techniques, life would be easy.
Everything in my way? One word: delete."

"Paris, huh? Got it."
Ryuuto flashed a grin and waved to Tony, Bobby, and the others rushing over to congratulate him.
"Iron Man, Bobby—handle the aftermath.
I'll run ahead."
And like a red streak tearing open the sky—
Ryuuto vanished, already on his way to France.
