## Summary

The group then witness Senku and Ryusui arrive, with Xeno amazed that Senku survived. Xeno and Senku catch up before the latter tells Senku that he is already lost the battle because of Stanley commandeering the Perseus. At that point Luna, Kaseki, Francois, and Max arrive. Luna is happy Senku is alright, while imagining a scenario where he praises her but immediately rejects the idea. However, Senku does compliment Luna on her capabilities of escaping the enemy, as she remarks she was half-right while Senku is confused.

Ryusui says that they have to split up, as the members are sadden to hear they have to leave their friends behind. With Stanley commandeering the Perseus, the group take Xeno in one of his spare boats. Kohaku questions if they will attack the enemy on the Perseus, as Tsukasa and Hyoga such a tactic because doing so would be a suicide mission. However, Senku asked the group if there's someone in the American colony who most likely would not want to see blood shed. Chrome believes that he knows the best person, stating while he did not understand the conversation but there was a man who prioritized getting him and Xeno out of the cave in. Gen says that seemed to be Dr. Brody, listing how the latter was not bothered Gen lying about the scientist or being nonchalant about dealing with a turncoat.

The group then watch Senku contact Brody, getting the transmission Brody announces he uninterested in a truce or hostage negotiation. Hearing this, the young scientist reveals something he knows Brody would be interested in hearing. Senku tells Brody the ingredients to the revival formula news that greatly shocks his allies, Xeno and Brody himself. Senku announces gathering the ingredients would be easy. He tells Brody to release his friends, so that they can help them properly produce from the corn that way they can all establish Corn city which could be populated by over 1 million people with the cooperation of both sides.
