Thanks to the power of the Demons, Hendrickson has been resurrected.
The New Generation has transformed into Demons,
and their destructive power is revealed in the capital.
In order to save Meliodas and the others,
Elizabeth allows herself to fall into Hendrickson's clutches.
Meliodas heads to her rescue,
but before he can reach her, he finds Ban standing in his way.
We're busy! What kind of a sick joke is this?
Hey, Captain...
I've been trying not to say or even think about this for the longest time,
but now I think I'll just ask!
Are you from the Demon race?
Judging from your silence, I take it that's a yes?
We don't have time for this right now.
Elizabeth is—
Maybe it's nothing to you, Captain,
but to me it's the most important thing in the world!
If I kill you, she'll be brought back to life!
Who the hell told you such an outrageous lie?
Some stuck-up lady calling herself a Goddess!
She spoke to us from this gigantic horn!
You idiot, Ban!
If you go any further, it's all over between us, got that?
Since when are we friends?
If you don't stop yammering, I'll kill you, you swine.
And if I really went after you, you wouldn't live to tell the tale!
In that case, kill me! I'm begging you!
That Goddess told me...
that you're related to the Demon who killed Elaine, Captain.
And if I killed you, they'd bring her back to life!
I see.
Fine, then. Kill me, Ban.
Captain...
This is a tale of ancient times,
when the human and non-human worlds had not yet split.
Where there were nations, there were Holy Knights;
where there were Holy Knights, there were no nations.
But was it this structure
that robbed Holy Knights of their freedom and sense of justice?
That is why they are legends.
Holy Knights who had surpassed the Holy Knights.
They are, in other words, the Seven Deadly Sins!
EPISODE 22: WHAT I CAN DO FOR YOU
Where am I?
Hey! Snap out of it!
What the hell is going on?
It looks like... It looks like hell!
Brother...
I'm gonna become stronger than you.
I knew it, she's still alive!
But what should I do?
Diane!
Snap out of it!
Please, just stop, Helbram!
You... You, you, you!
Big Sister Guila!
Not a problem. Leave this to me.
Dreyfus, so you survived?
Lady Elizabeth, please step back.
What do you think you're doing?
Hendrickson...
I'm to blame for changing you so drastically,
and for bringing such chaos to the kingdom.
Therefore, I should at least atone by righting this wrong myself.
Do you really believe that you can stop me?
Yes. I've got to stop you no matter what.
As a Holy Knight of Liones...
and as a friend!
Captain, you're sure you're okay with this?
As if I'd joke about such a thing.
Just kill me already.
Your girlfriend will come back to life then, right?
If I were in your shoes, I'm sure I'd do the same.
I appreciate this, Captain.
I'll never forget you as long as I live.
Elaine... Wait for me.
Who the hell fights back after an exchange like that?
You're the one who said to kill you!
I never said I'd just lie there and let you kill me.
- Wouldn't you do the same in my position? - What?
She... Elizabeth thinks nothing of sacrificing herself.
How can I abandon her, knowing that?
I don't have time to die in a place like this!
I see.
Even so, no way am I gonna play nice and just back off!
Ban, just stop already!
Shut up!
This might be the only way to resurrect Elaine, you know!
- You hopeless nitwit! - Hawk! Back off!
Because you were taken in by some horn you don't know a thing about,
you're gonna kill Meliodas?
Aha! I see, so Meliodas isn't a friend or anything in your eyes?
The captain's the best friend in the world.
But if what I heard is true, Elaine will come back to life!
If it's not true, you're gonna lose a friend!
And do you think Elaine would be happy coming back to life like this?
Then tell me what I should do.
Little piggy whose only ability is to rummage through scraps!
Ban...
After Elaine died,
I met the captain and the others, and sure it took my mind off it.
It was one event after another, year in, year out, huh?
But then suddenly it hit me.
That I'll be on my own forever after all,
and that I'll never see her again, either in this world or that world.
Without her, this world is like hell.
Do you get that?
Nope!
All right.
But for now, just do what the Seven Deadly Sins' Fox Sin has to do!
I'm ordering you as your captain!
When this is all over, let's settle things once and for all.
When that time comes...
Yeah. No matter what, you're my friend, Ban.
Roger that.
Meliodas! Are you okay?
Hawk... Take me to where Elizabeth is.
Yeah, but in the shape you're in...
So anyway, I'm gonna catch some z's.
You're gonna sleep?
Already? Jeez, you pig-abuser.
Master...
Look after the captain for me.
You don't have to tell me.
After all, I'm his friend!
Gil...
Gil, please don't die!
I'm borrowing this!
What are you do—
Hey! Ban! What did you just throw?
Good thing I stole this back in Vaizel.
Hyper Recovery!
Oh, wait. Should I have used it on the captain, too?
Oh, well.
Stop it, Helbram!
There's no reason for us to fight anymore, right?
Don't make me hurt you any more than I have!
I... You... best friend...
Ban! If you touch him, I'll kill you!
Helbram is my best friend!
If he's your friend, you should just off him.
I know.
I know that!
Hurry...
I-If it's you, I don't care how many times you kill me.
So please... Hurry!
While... I'm still... me...
Please... kill me!
What's going on here?
Have the New Generation knights turned into monsters?
Jericho! Where are you?
That's my brother's voice.
Are you looking for me?
Brother, I'm right here.
Jericho?
Look how strong I've become, Brother. At least praise me a little.
Jericho...
Somebody...
Somebody, please kill me!
Silken Skewer!
Acid Down.
ACID DOWN
Grand Master Dreyfus!
Have you forgotten, Hendrickson?
Just like my will, my body won't rust, rot, or be destroyed!
Even with all the force of your magical powers!
I'd expect no less from you, Dreyfus.
That's precisely why it's such a shame.
I would've wanted to have you as a friend forever.
That ability to regenerate... Your bizarre appearance...
The power of an unnatural existence, eh?
How far you've fallen, Hendrickson!
Star Breaker!
I don't think so.
From where I sit, humans are no better than insects crawling the earth!
Please be all right, Elizabeth!
Two heroes are on their way to save you!
Did I kill him?
Lady Elizabeth!
At this rate, she'll...
Oh, my, what a pity!
I'd better take her away before that blood dries up.
It's over... Hendrickson!
True, it is over.
Gustaf? Hang in there!
Gilthunder...
Please... save my sister.
Please... kill me.
Don't say that! I don't want to kill you!
Then get outta my way!
Ban?
Harlequin, please... Hurry up and kill—
I can't do it, after all! Don't say something so ridiculous!
You're my best friend, you know!
Then... I'm not gonna be your best friend anymore!
Spirit spear Chastiefol, fourth configuration!
Sunflower!
Ban... Please kill me.
Sure thing! I'll be glad to kill you.
Her body!
Now the Holy Knight you once were is dead.
Don't be mad at me, Jericho.
Helbram...
Was I your best friend until the very end?
Guila!
Are you all right now?
Yes. There's nothing wrong with me.
Then let's all go help the captain and Elizabeth!
I'll go round up the others.
As soon as Ban and I purge the capital of the New Generation, we'll join you!
Roger that!
Make sure you don't mess up!
Who do you think you're talking to?
Those guys...
The Seven Deadly Sins?
Why would those traitors...
I can sense the captain's magical powers.
That's the magical research building up ahead.
As I thought, something's up...
Long time no see!
So we return from our mission to find this. What's going on here?
The Roars of Dawn!
Long time no see!
I wish I could get into another fight to the death with you, but that's on hold.
Just leave the rest to us, all righty?
Thanks!
Bye-bye!
Now that your magical powers are depleted, you have no chance.
Too bad, you were this close, Dreyfus.
Admit defeat.
You're the one person I don't want to kill.
You were a fine mentor to me.
A friend and a rival.
It's regrettable.
Acid Down.
At least die a painless, tranquil death.
Is that you, Meliodas?
Just as I thought, my acid doesn't work on Demons with their sinister powers.
Dreyfus!
Elizabeth!
I was born a sage of the forest.
A Druid, who worships nature and the Goddesses,
and despises the Demons.
Ever since I first saw you, I sensed it, vaguely...
That sinister, powerful magical power writhing deep inside you...
And I both feared and admired you.
But now, I've acquired the same power as you!
Elizabeth... I'm going to end this right away.
When it's all over, let's run that tavern again.
Okay?
Hawk... Can you take her?
Oh, yeah! I'll carry her both speedily and safely!
What're you talking about?
All right. Go.
As if I'd let you get away.
Elizabeth, don't you die on me!
If you die, I'll never forgive you!
- You seem to have misread me. - Right back atcha!
Whoa, what's this?
Oh, boy, you sure saved us!
Elizabeth...
I'll never forgive you!
But she was on the brink of death. What's she doing here?
You still alive, Captain?
The Seven Deadly Sins!
Well, well!
To have the legendary Seven Deadly Sins gathered here...
I'm humbled and overjoyed beyond words.
Not only that, but...
These are the kingdom's Holy Knights.
This time, they're here to prevent not the Seven Deadly Sins, but you from escaping!
We've wiped out all the Demons from the capital, too.
Well, if not, it wouldn't be any fun!
I don't know how you managed to rid the city of the scum in such a short time.
But that's excellent, Seven Deadly Sins!
But... You can't defeat me.
We're defeating you.
It's futile.
I won't let you get away!
Will you let yourself be killed at least four times?
Otherwise, he's gonna be angry with me.
As I am now, I'm invincible.
This is...
Invincible or not, I won't rest till I take you out!
Double Hammer!
DOUBLE HAMMER
A little girl who's huge and nothing else...
Do you really think a move like that will work on—
What?
Since you're a noob, I'll give you a word of advice.
Sure, demonic power can heal a wound,
but unless you're immortal, the damage remains!
How many times have you regenerated yourself?
Combined Attack, Metal Crush!
Jeez, they're totally fired up, huh?
Whereas you're totally low-key, Ban.
Not nearly as much as you.
I guess I'm kinda late to the party,
but how did Hendrickson get all that power?
According to Guila,
he's been studying Demon corpses for years.
Demon corpses?
Glancing away during a battle could be your undoing, Ban.
There we go.
Hendy, where'd you find that?
What?
You heard me.
I'm asking you where you found that!
Wh-What's this?
This is the source of it all.
