In the previous episode, Arthur Boyle confronted Dragon, the Commander of the Destroyers. Although Arthur's delusions endowed him with magnificent powers, he couldn't stand a chance against Dragon's overwhelming fury. On the other hand, the episode revealed Obi's fate, as he flexed his muscles to prevent the Infernal Bugs from seeping into his skin.

Pouncing on that opportunity, Shina Kusakabe unleashed his flames once again against Leonard Burns. Given how the episode ended, fans are waiting with bated breath for Fire Force season 3 episode 6.

Elsewhere, Arthur Boylce confronts Dragon, the commander of the Destroyers. As the battle begins, Arthur realizes the threat Dragon possesses. As a result, his delusions enhance his self-image, which in turn increases his Excalibur's powers. Yet, Arthur's Violent Slash, which is usually a one-hit-kill move, does nothing to Dragon.

As the battle continues, Dragon uses a powerful breath to burn everything in front of him. However, Arthur's self-image helps him acquire a plasma mantle, which saves him from the attack.
