In an attempt to distract the pirates from his passengers, he surrenders himself to the pirates. When he sees Dozen Strike however, he attempts to attack him only to be overpowered due to his weapons being confiscated. Dozen Strike challenges him to a duel and brutally beats him.

After a few minutes of catching his breath, he disables his guards and destroys the main "oar", causing the Guillotine V to steer towards the prison planet Barrix III.
