## Plot

In Volume 22, Team Spear of the Heavenly Emperor participated in the opening ceremony of the Azazel Cup.

In Volume DX.4, Team Spear of Heavenly Emperor’s match was set against Team Imperial Purpure. At the floating city of Agreas, Cao Cao arrived together with his team for their match against Sairaorg and his team at the arena and exchange glares at each other. Cao Cao’s Queen, who turned out to be Guan Yu, arrived later with his red horse. Before the match started Cao Cao conversed with Sairaorg about something he had to offer and that’s for whatever happens in the match, he would strive forward towards victory and continued to say he will wait for Sairaorg at the center of the field and swore upon Issei's name, shocking everyone at the arena as their match began. Perseus started to fight against the Knight of Sairaorg’s peerage; Beluga Furcas and manages to block his attacks with his Aegis Mineralization. Heracles stepped in front of Sairaorg and greeted him. He started to recall the punch he received from Sairaorg in their last fight, during the Demonic Beast Riot and considered it a pain that’s beyond comprehension and began preparing his fight against him. Heracles leaped towards Sairaorg and successfully punched him in the face, which created an enormous explosion from the result of his Sacred Gear. Sairaorg, however, used the smoke from the explosion to hide and filled his fist with aura to punch Heracles’s face as the two began to fight each other. During the fight, Heracles revealed he’s acting on his own accord, without Cao Cao’s order. As Sairaorg activates his Balance Breaker, Heracles began to dodge his every punch but was receiving bruises due to the destructive power from Sairaorg’s punches. Although Heracles’s attacks and explosion managed to hit Sairaorg, he didn’t suffer much damage because of his armor and Heracles began to punch in the abdomen and kicked his face without any mercy which causes him to be enveloped in retire light. As he was retiring, Heracles heard the cries from the children who were supporting him and as he told them not to call him Oji-san and stood up. He shows the trading cards that the children gave to him with one being a rare card, later he put them back into his pocket and resumed his fight with Sairaorg. During the fight, Heracles managed to damage Sairaorg’s armor and destroyed the right shoulder of the armor. But despite Heracles damaging him, Sairaorg continued to send punches and kicks towards Heracles and eventually defeating him and praised him for inheriting the spirit of Hercules and wished to fight him again. Georg fought together with Guan Yu against the Queen of the opposing team; Kuisha Abaddon and tried to create a barrier around her, but the fog was sucked away by her Hole ability. Cao Cao appeared at the center of the battlefield to face Sairaorg but he expressed his disappointment for being unable fight him because Heracles wanted to fight him, however Sairaorg says he’s rather grateful because it helped him feel ready. Cao Cao noticed the similarities between Sairaorg and Issei and revealed he discarded all his strategies so he can fight Sairaorg one-on-one fight and as the match began he sent several jabs at Sairaorg, but Sairaorg managed to dodge all the attacks. Cao Cao distanced himself from Sairaorg after figuring out his attack range. When he equipped his Balance Breaker, Cao Cao decided not to use his ***Seven Treasures*** and instead infused Holy energy into the Holy Spear so he can defeat Sairaorg and Issei with simple techniques rather using his special moves. After Sairaorg entered his **Breakdown the Beast** armor form, Cao Cao continued to dodge his attacks using his vision and senses, but took some damage due to Sairaorg’s aura. Cao Cao managed to destroy Sairaorg’s shoulder armor with his spear and caused some serious pain to him with the holy aura and thus forcing his opponent to dodge his spear attacks. Cao Cao started his counter against Sairaorg by sending attacks to where he would go. Sairaorg’s punches became less sharp than before to the point where Cao Cao was able to dodge them easily now. He was able to prevent Cao Cao from getting closer by emitting aura from his body, but it was a matter of time before that aura was penetrated by Cao Cao’s Holy Spear. Once that aura became weak enough, Cao Cao’s single jab would end his fight. After Sairaorg’s punches became sharper again, Cao Cao tried to slow down the attacks with his spear, but Sairaorg managed to punch the spear away. However Cao Cao managed to stabbed his left side. Cao Cao became exhausted after wasting a lot of energy, which gave Sairaorg a chance to land a strong blow on him, but Cao Cao use his True Longinus to defend himself against Sairaorg’s punch. The punch sent Cao Cao flying across the field and tumbled the ground several times. He managed to get back up despite the damage he took and they decided to continue to fight each other despite the exhaustion. The match finished due to reaching the time limit, with Cao Cao and his team as the victor due to having more points than Sairaorg’s team.
