The Black Order receives messages from around Europe that the Millennium Earl has declared war. General Yeegar is confronted by two of the Noah, Road Kamelot and Tyki Mikk along with a hoard of Akuma. Allen and Lenalee are sent to his aid. Yeegar proves himself more than capable of dealing with the Akuma, but falls victim to Road and her manipulation of memories of his tragic class. The Millennium Earl then retrieves and destroys the fragments of Innocence held by Yeegar. Road sings an eerie song about the Earl's search for the Heart of Innocence, and when the Exorcists finally arrive to help Yeegar, her song is the only thing he can utter. Komui explains that the 'Heart of Innocence' is what both the Black Order and Millennium Earl are searching for.
