Kill the Three Beasts - First Half -.The Emperor of the Empire orders General Esdeath of the Empire to hunt down Night Raid in exchange for a marital suitor. Tatsumi, assuming that Akame is calm and composed ever since the death of Sheele, is surprised that Akame has been utterly devastated, which gives him the ambition of protecting her and staying alive. Esdeath dispatches the Three Beasts (Daidara, Nyau and Liver), an elite group of Imperial Arms users, to take out Prime Minister Chouri and his daughter Spear from the northern tribe, who were political rivals against Honest. The Three Beasts then spread flyers to frame Night Raid for the murders. Najenda sends Tatsumi and Night Raid member Bulat aboard a massive luxury liner. There, Nyau uses his Imperial Arms Scream, a flute that weakens those who hear its melody, but Tatsumi resists its sound. Tatsumi is then confronted by Daidara, who uses his Imperial Arms Belvark, an axe that splits into two blades. Bulat intervenes and uses his Imperial Arms Incursio, a sealed white sword that releases into a suit of armor, to kill Daidara. Bulat recognizes Liver as a former general of the Imperial Police.
