Key Events:

• The gods announce their fighter for Round 6: Buddha – the enlightened one who transcended all gods and humans.

• Brunhilde reveals humanity's fighter – but Buddha steps forward first, declaring he will represent humanity.

• A shocking betrayal: Buddha abandons the gods' side, choosing to fight for the humans he once guided.

• The gods are outraged – Buddha is now a traitor, and they demand his destruction.

• A new god is hastily chosen as Buddha's opponent: Zerofuku – a deity of misfortune and misery.

• Zerofuku's tragic origin is revealed: a kind god who absorbed humanity's negativity until it consumed him.

• His power: Misery Cleaver – a massive blade that grows larger and more grotesque with each negative emotion he feels.

• The battlefield becomes a dark, storm-ravaged temple – reflecting Zerofuku's tortured soul.

• Buddha remains calm, smiling – for he has achieved Nirvana – the ability to see the future and avoid all harm.

• Zerofuku attacks with pure, screaming rage – each swing of his axe fueled by centuries of stolen happiness.

• Buddha refuses to fight back at first – he pities Zerofuku and wants to save him, not destroy him.

• A flashback reveals Buddha's own journey: from sheltered prince to enlightened teacher who saw suffering in all things.

• Zerofuku's rage deepens – he splits into Seven Gods of Fortune – seven separate beings, each embodying a different form of despair.

• The volume ends with Buddha finally raising his hand – not to attack, but to offer salvation.
