Clip (Akira, Doki and Luffy talk to Ashi)

Ashi: I see. So that's what led to your ending up. What a disappointing to the hero of justice, the pirate king and the expedition hero. I still can't believe it... But I now have a general idea of the methods you used for your actions. There's much more I'd like to ask, but my allotted time is nearly up...

Doki:

Ashi: I do have a suggestion though. Care to strike a deal? If you cooperate with me, I'll consider lightening your sentence.

Akira:

Ashi: I have a responsibility to solve this case. I will win, even if it means brokering a deal with you, boys. Your operation was leaked, and you let Ryvine summon the meteor. There's no use to be obstinate now. You're friend gave Ryvine the Black Materia and and causing the meteor to send our way. You'll most likely be given life imprisonment of the death penalty... Unless you accept my proposal. Going forward, I will read a list of people who was with you and this case. Tell me honestly whether or not the following are involved in your stories. First, you met the Keyblade wielder named Sora. Second, you met the Digimon Warriors named Shoutmon, Gumdramon and Damemon, Third, you met the Warrior named Ace. Fourth, you met Laval and his friends who was with Sora. Fifth, you met the Fairy Tail guild who was with Ace. And finally, you met the Shadows Wielder who was with Ace. Those were people who was with you o your adventures, are they not?

Akira: (Polite)

Ashi: So you boys don't tell me about your friends. Then let me change the Question, Doki... I find it hard to believe that transfer student could have pulled off these actions by themselves. Were there not others outside of your expedition group who encouraged your actions or lend their aid? Not to repeat myself, but remember that your life will be forfeit if your sentence is not lightened... You had the cooperation of people outside your group did you not? Can you tell me about them, doggy?

Doki: (Polite)

Ashi: I see, so you boys don't want to tell me about your teammate or your collaborators? Do you even understand the position that you're in? Let's discuss two other groups-- The Dazzling and the Cyberling. Leon told me that they were with Ryan and his friends before he met Sora. Did you met them in Olympic Coliseum, when you and your friends met Sora and the others?

Luffy:

Ashi: So they weren't with Sora or Ryan when you first met them... So be it. You clearly have no intention of bargaining with me.

Doki:

Ashi: Even now, you boys still acting as though you're the hero of justice, expedition hero and a Pirate King? Sora, Gumdramon, Shoutmon, Damemon, Ace and their friends just left you and your friends in order to leave, yet you wish to def￼end their honor? Why won't you and your friends talk about them?

Luffy:

Ashi slam the table

Ashi: Don't be ridiculous! You're not the one to decide such things!

Akira:

Ashi: "Justice"? Then tell me, what is this "Justice" you speak of?

Akira:

Ashi: "Sticking to the right path" you say? That's no different from us. (Sigh) You continue to stand firm... Are you implying that we have no evidence about what you done back at the crater? You're right- we have nothing. And it doesn't help that your stories sounds true to me! But many world have fallen by the Darkness to this! We need to learn the truth. The truth, huh...? I don't even know what's right anymore. And it all due to your strange stories!

Luffy:

Ashi: After all this, you're still-

Akira feel something wrong in his head, so does Doki and Luffy

Doki:

Ashi: Are you listening? The side effects of the Truth Serum are going to wear off, I won't be received by such a poor act.

Akira realising something about what she said

Akira's Mind: "I won't be deceived"... "I feel like... I'm forgetting something important..."

Flashback

Morgana: You realised it too then. It was our conversation about the next world we're going, right? There's no way someone was eavesdropping on us, while we were talking.

Flashback has ended

Ashi: Are you okay, Akira? It seems your mind is clearing up... but unfortunately... my time had ran out... Although I find your story to be quite interesting, I won't be able to speak with you any longer.

Akira:

Ashi: Huh? Did you say "I'm giving up?". What are you getting at?... That's right. No matter the result of this case, I won't be receiving credit. I even had to call in a large favor just to conduct this interrogation..

Luffy's ￼Mind: "Interrogation" Room... That's right... If I remember...

Flashback has started

Nami: So, how did that thing we asked you to look into go? Cid mentioned a special interrogation room in Maleficent's Lair, didn't he? Good. It looks like we can make this work if we lure them there.

Flashback ended

Ashi: Hey... hey, are you listening?... Our time's up. We're done talking here. Goodbye.

Akira: Is this what you planned to see us?

Ashi: What are you saying such odd things? Anyhow... there's one last thing I want to ask you. There's something that's been bothering me for some time now. Recently I I was removed from my list as head of this investigation and was told to remain on standby. A short while later, I received word you were caught in the act... within some bizarre phenomenon... but that was all I was told. You were told that a group just use Ryan from the very beginning, right? If that's true, who could it have been? Don't you have any idea...?

Doki: "Ryan has been used"? That's right... There's something we need to do...
