## Plot summary

### Chapters 45-52: New Donk's JorJor

##### 48-52: Mr. Perfect Cell vs. Jordan

In the winter of 1946, having became a wealthy businessman, Devon Negax, and his Negax Foundation has discovered an inverted pyramid in the Sand Kingdom where they found various Mii Mirrors along with a man integrated into a stone column. Fearing the worst, that the horror he and his old friend Jorge Jormoon had thwarted 57 years ago may resurface, Devon contacted Mr. Perfect Cell to meet him in the Sand Kingdom for his aid in destroying the masks and the mysterious figure before he awakens. But Mr. Perfect Cell suddenly kills Devon's associates before badly injuring Devon himself. Fascinated by the power the Mii Mirror granted Davis, Mr. Perfect Cell uses the spilled blood to activate the Mirror and transforms into an Interdimentional Being while explaining he intends to eliminate any who know of the Mirrors.

Meanwhile, in New Donk City, Jorge's grandson Jordan Jormoon defeats a pair of police officers for brutalizing a pickpocket named [Name pending] and demonstrates his ability to utilize Graviton. Jordan befriends [Name pending] as he and his grandmother Lila Jormoon make the boy feel welcomed. Jordan is soon informed by a mobster of Devon's presumed death at the hand of Mr. Perfect Cell.

Later after sunset, Jordan is confronted outside a cafe by Mr. Perfect Cell, who is now an Interdimentional Being and intends to kill him before he becomes an actual threat. But Jordan expected the Interdimentional Being and, after a heated battle, Mr. Perfect Cell is defeated. Mr. Perfect Cell reveals that after he became an Interdimentional Being and became perfect in doing so, he was forced to dump Devon and his victims into the river to prevent the spilled blood from reviving the figure in the stone column. The Interdimentional Being finally self-destructs by channelling Graviton into himself, crushing his body and disintegrating him.

### Chapters 53-62: In the Sand Kingdom

Disturbed by Mr. Perfect Cell's final words, Jordan travels to the Sand Kingdom and learns from an assassin named [Name pending] that the Eggman Empire under the command of Dr. Ivo "Eggman" Robotnik have taken Devon prisoner. Eggman and his forces are revealed to have extracted the Topic Man and proceed to revive him for research purposes. Once the being, dubbed "Ryan Austin" by Eggman, is awakened, he demonstrates fantastic, super-human abilities as he kills most of those present. But Jordan, having infiltrated the Eggman Empire's base, intervenes.

The battle against the superhuman Ryan Austin pushes Jordan to his limits and Eggman is forced to trigger a grenade against his chest to stop the creature. Nonetheless, Jordan manages to expose Ryan Austin to moonlight. After storing Ryan Austin's remains at the Fourside Branch of the Negax Foundation, Jordan, who has learned from Eggman that a trio of Topic Men are sleeping in Rome, is sent to meet a certain ally.
