In the Black Order cafeteria, Allen intervenes in a confrontation between Kanda and a Finder, further inflaming Kanda's animosity towards him. Later, Komui sends Allen and Kanda on a mission to recover a fragment of Innocence in the ruins of Martel, a town in southern Italy before it can be taken by the Akuma. There is a legend that a ghost roams Mater, killing anyone who wanders near it. Along the way, Toma, a Finder tells Allen how strange occurrences in history are usually related to the Innocence. Meanwhile, the Finders in Martel have captured two Akuma in barriers, but they are attacked by a third one. When the two Exorcists arrive, Allen runs to fight the third Akuma and to save the surviving Finders, while Kanda rescues two Finders Guzol and Lala, who are protected within a barrier. During Allen's fight, the Akuma evolves to Level 2 and calls himself an Akuma Clown. Kanda refuses to help Allen and leaves with the fragment of Innocence and the two Finders. The episode ends with a stunned Allen being attacked by another version of himself.
