Allen slowly improves his fighting technique, but he still cannot cause his Innocence to materialize. He focuses deeply on returning to his friends, causing his Innocence to show high energy readings. However, just as the energy readings peak, Allen's left eye activates which causes Allen great pain and alarms the scientists. He continues training, and causes a peak in his Innocence energy, however at that point, the pain spikes and Allen faints. Suddenly, Fo senses something strange as Tyki Mikk's Level 3 assassin approaches, and she tells Bak to hide Allen. The Akuma blows a hole through Fo, breaking her defensive barrier. Allen's left eye immediately activates and omits a strange sensation. Fo tells Allen to run, but Allen refuses. At that moment, the Akuma fires a beam of dark matter, piercing Allen’s chest.
