Summary
Sinbad reveals some things only he could have known, reassuring Alibaba that it's Sinbad himself speaking through Kougyoku. He explains his ability to control minds and reveals that he has other points in the world where he controls people. He says he will do any dirty trick to protect his country. He also tells Alibaba that him betraying Sindria isn't such a big deal and he can even fake his loyalty to Kou. Alibaba answers that he can't do that since it would harm Balbadd even more and he can't run away again. After stating why it would be bad for Kougyoku if Alibaba were to reveal about Sinbad controlling her, he leaves her body. Alibaba thinks that he can't forgive him for harming Kougyoku, but in the end, hesitates.

Afterwards, the fleet leaves Balbadd. Alibaba accepts Kouen's conditions but wants to know his connection to Al-Thamen before deciding whether he is his ally or not. Kouen makes a point that there is no country where trust is present everywhere and that's why he can't let Hakuryuu be a king. He also tells him that one day, when Balbadd will become his, he mustn't get rid of people he hates. Kouen also says that to protect his country, he will dirty his hands and reveals that he is building a nest in his body. He exclaims that he will drag the power of everyone to unify a world, even the people that will betray him one day, including Hakuryuu. He mentions that they were inducing him so he would be no threat to Kouen. Alibaba realizes that he must be doing the same thing as Sinbad and feels conflicted about what he can do.

Then, the fleet reach the island and the summit is going to take part. They are greeted by five of the Eight Generals.
