Synopsis
Lenalee battles the Akuma by herself and learns she is not powerful enough to defeat it. By using a maximum invocation of her Innocence and drawing out all of its power, she manages to defeat it, vanishing into the sea in the process. As Lavi searches for her, he encounters an Akuma carrying a large crystal. After realizing the Akuma is an ally and the crystal is Lenalee's Innocence protecting her, they return to the ship, where the Exorcists speculate that Lenalee might possess the Heart of Innocence. The Akuma, modified by Cross to obey him, tells the search party to turn back. Before they can answer, the crystal disappears and releases Lenalee, who says they must continue. Because of Miranda's exhaustion, she cannot maintain the ship the Exorcists continue without Anita and her crew, who vanish into the sea.
