Seeing the Earl before him, the Earl then blows a balloon up and Allen questions his reasons for appearing, believing the Earl wanted him to lure out Apocryphos. Johnny's gadget then reacts and zaps him, causing Allen to try and bite it off annoyed how the Black Order's gadgets still haunt him. The Earl then tries to crush him, but Allen dodges and begins to question the Earl's odd behavior. He tries to activate his Crown Clown but Allen gets no response and notes the Earl has lost it and wonders if it has something to do with the 14th. As Johnny arives, the Earl smashes Allen into a wall and Johnny saves him from getting crushed stating he'll save him despite Allen's pleas for him to leave him. As the Earl throws Johnny away, Allen and the Earl seemingly lock minds as Allen sees flashbacks of Road protecting Mana from what appears to be an angry Nea and later Mana in a field seeing the Earl kill their mother calling him "Mana D. Campbell" and he brought upon this tragedy. While questioning what he saw, the Earl mutters Mana's name over and over and states Mana is the cause of everything.
