Manjiro Sano vs. Takemichi Hanagaki is a battle between Kanto Manji Gang President Manjiro Sano and Brahman member Takemichi Hanagaki.

Introduction

After South Terano's death, Koko declares the Kanto Manji Gang's victory in the showdown of the Three Deities.

Takemichi stops Mikey

On the departure of the gang members, Takeomi Akashi admonishes the extremity of Mikey's actions. In response, Mikey kicks Akashi in the face, threatening his life as well. Mikey's kick leaves Akashi sprawled out on the ground, motionless. Holding his injured arm, Takemichi puts himself between Mikey and Akashi, once again pleading for Mikey to stop. Seemingly bored and apathetic, Mikey punches Takemichi, throwing him across the parking lot.

Battle

Mikey pummels Takemichi

Standing over him, Mikey asks how he wants to die. As he lifts Takemichi by the collar, Takemichi remembers those words, once said in a joking way. He weeps as he realizes the extent of Mikey's degradation. All the while, Mikey continues punching him from various angles. Still at the scene, Senju and Koko look on, appalled. As Mikey brings Takemichi to the ground to strike him, Senju shouts out. With his face swollen and bloodied, Takemichi murmurs Mikey's name as he prepares to deliver another blow. As Mikey prepares to deliver a final blow, Takemichi loses consciousness, his vision turning dark. Senju bowed to Mikey to protect Takemichi. The Battle of Three Deities concluded with the deaths of Draken and South Terano, the merging of Rokuhara Tandai and Kanto Manji Gang, and the dissolution of Brahman.

Result

• Manjiro Sano is victorious.
• Senju Kawaragi dissolves Brahman to protect Takemichi.
• Takemichi Hanagaki is hospitalized.
