On the case that earned his title, he found the culprit faster than the police, and as he was being arrested, the killer's gaze became imprinted into Shuichi's being, as at that moment, he put together the absolute truth: that the culprit was avenging his family which was driven to suicide by the victim.

A loud noise had come from the room earlier in the week before he was found missing, happening when the room was locked with "Battler" presumed inside. However, no evidence points towards a specific culprit, and more than that, the room was fully locked an no one could have gotten in nor out, at least after Kinzo did. Moreso, The Agents of Payne have been missing as well.

Despite the situation, him and Wright manage to become the #1 contenders for the titles.

Episode 8

As the situation gets ever more dire, Wright holds another emergency meeting to inform everyone that new information has surfaced into the situation.

Episode 10

When all hope was lost for The Final Impact to happen, and Kojima sent an agent to stop anyone from escaping, The Court intercepted him, proving that Wright hadn't fell into evil. He provided support, while Miles Edgeworth fought, by turning off Armstrong's nanomachines somehow.

Episode 11
Phoenix then, livestreams the truth about Kojima and himself. About how Sminem had a premonition from the start that someone was gonna attempt this, and all they had left to do was find who, and how he took a place in the board of directors in his absence. About how Kojima was in contact with HUNK since before he fought Battler. About how HUNK's matches before this point had all been predetermined. About how Battler receiving a modified Focusing Stone was all part of Kojima's plan, which after his match with Agent 47 warped him to the universe Kojima had created. About how he used Battler as a catalyst to create his new universe, having him endure endless torment alone for what seemed an eternity, which completely destroyed his mind, forcing it to take a different persona to distance from the pain. About how he himself had betrayed his friends to get close to Kojima and destroy him from the inside.

After apologizing profoundly, he goes to put his title on the line against Shuichi and Kyle, and TV World Fools.

Then he mentions Battler waking up as a different person, and Kojima's time coming soon. But before he could reveal his name, Kojima interrupted him, because he wants no spoilers, and ended the transmission.

When the time comes, Phoenix Wright and Shuichi Saihara arrive to Kojima's office, and the three reunite with Hachijo Tohya back together as Mystery Masters, they confront Kojima.

The nanomachine-powered HUNK that Kojima so proudly boasted of got ready to crush Tohya. However, it was not Tohya who was fighting that day, but Battler's fierce soul refusing to go out without shining with a blinding light one last time. The style of wrestling that was on the ring that day... was definitely Battler! And finally, HUNK, the Grim Reaper, the unbeatable machine who claimed neither man nor beast could step in his shadow and go undefeated against him in combat ...Fell.

Thus, Tohya acquired the Script of the Mad Writer and made it unable to alter that universe further, and together, they stated the truth his ideals, his creations, and himself: It's all nothing but a forgery.

La Parka then announces the special deathmatches for violating the rules...

After the executions are over, all the dolls explode into gore before the last remaining participants are made to enter their final challenge.

Episode 12
The final twilight, where their fate lied on one final challenge: The Final Trial.

La Parka explains how those who fail on their logic will be doomed to deathmatches, and Saihara wonders if he's deliberately giving an advantage to people gifted in logic.

To demonstrate, Majima Goro and Senator Armstrong are the first to fight.

The first question: What is the full, non-abbreviated name of the company that owns the lab where that artifact (the focusing stone) was modified?

Saihara urges everyone to get as much info as possible, but the discussion is quickly lead astray by bickering. So Saihara thinks back to the story Mr. X told and how his knowledge seemed like a direct connection to "SC", plus the fact that he had never talked until that point. Wright figures what it could mean thinking back on his creator, but just then, the time for discussion ends.Wright, Drake, and Pegasus are up to answer; Drake has a breakdown and doesn't answer, while Pegasus only answers 'Sorry, Commander' to fulfill his wish of dying in battle, meanwhile Wright got the correct answer. Saihara finds it suspicious that Wright knew the answer but didn't share it, but ignores it to keep going.

The second question by La Parka: Who were they? (The dolls mixed between the participants)

Before the discussion can start, Mr. America blasts off about Samoa Joe. Hyde actually agrees, because, in this game, he had both of his arms. As Saihara points out, the real Joe had a bionic arm installed. Edgeworth then points out that the next most likely clones are those coming from the other company, James Sunderland and Patrick Bateman, for the fact that they showing up at all is suspicious and they don't have enough time to consider everyone. Drake then remembers something, seeing a child carrying someone in the room with all the corpses, and Majima adds that the kid was Alice, and the one she was carrying was Walter. Before Saihara can discuss the final doll, time is up and La Parka announces that that tony guy, Bane and Kyle are up to answer. Bane and Tony get the last person wrong and have to fight, but Kyle had thought of taking a risk and then an idea comes to mind: the person who was in the room with the button must have been a traitor, meaning Hachijo Tohya was a doll. La Parka announces the correct answer, but Kyle asks where the real versions of the dolls are, and La Parka decides to answer this once: wherever.

La Parka shoots the third and final question without time to debate: Which episode is this?

Kiryu, Mr. America, Knoxville and Edgeworth are up to answer, but strangely all but Edgeworth had gotten it wrong. Saihara tells La Parka to shut up and explain how they got it wrong, who simply says that they answered that it was the 12th episode of the 5th season. While most think it's right, Edgeworth refutes that this has been TFR from episode 1, which would put the number of episodes at 53, which sends Saihara into shock over it happening again.

La Parka feels that it's time to reveal the truth; much like TFR is a place to solve all of humanity's conflicts, it is also a beloved show, even with it's own mascot, OPkuma. Much like Steel Samurai, TFR is part of a bigger franchise, The Rumble, produced by Team Rumble, with The Final Rumble being it's final series. The Rumble series is actually a huge experiment, a cruel little world where they must constantly produce conflict and fight each other. Team Rumble had done the same with many people before just like them but they got closest to their objective in the current try. The objective was artificial world peace by endless entertainment, and after 52 attempts, the 53rd episode of the 53rd season was supposed to be the culminating point of the series. But thanks to his efforts and a certain doctor stealing the stone that would be used to restart the universe without the undesirable ones, it put a wrench in their plans. And this death game is an act of liberation, to not erased nor forgotten, but reject Team Rumble's cruel destiny. Saihara calls it madness, but the OPkuma robot interrupts stating that Sminem Corporation stock will go up, to which La Parka adds to it's perfect timing, as SC is nothing more than a subsidiary of Team Rumble, and the very heads of Team Rumble are none other than The Bogdanoffs and the false prophet, Sminem. Wright reacts violently to the claim, but Sminem was always behind the heroes while The Bogdanoff were always behind the villains, Sminem could predict the future because he had written it, all for the goal of their artificial world.

That's why La Parka offers the enlightenment of the one who saved him: the priest. As people start to believe, Agent 47 denies such claims, and Saihara threatens that it must be another way to toy with them. La Parka asures that they must think Battler is proud of them... indeed, one of the reason for starting this death game was that white haired man. Tohya springs forth bound and gagged from the floor to everyone's surprise. He wanted to personally torture this man, for he was HUNK himself unmasked, Team Rumble's greatest enforcer.

The skeleton prepares his last question for 47 and Saihara: Who's at fault for your suffering?

Saihara thinks back on everything and how he must want Sminem as the answer, but the more he thinks the more he becomes entrapped in doubt. And then, shining from his pocket, the stone shows him another possibility, an alternate history that did not come to be is clearly shown to everyone, where Sminem sacrificed himself to save them from a calamity. Sminem calls bones for his farce of a question, as Sminem sacrificed himself, and Battler was reborn from Tohya. La Parka breaks down, falling behind the podium. As OPkuma spews marketing taglines, Saihara urges Mr. Bones to face the truth, but, smashing the toy doll while getting up, he states that "bones" was a name falsely assigned to him. His actual name is BANS, what he was called down in Hell, standing for "Battler After Not Surviving". Everyone is frozen and unable to speak, so 'BANS' begins telling a story: An underdog who scratched and clawed for each win, who worked for the 'prophet', but a man would not let him go, culminating in his defeat at the end of their feud. The artifact he was carrying started glowing and he found himself in a new world. But that place was a trap, he was tormented by the unstable reality surrounding him, magic tormenting him as it took shape, it felt like suffering countless deaths, yet the ride would never end. He felt that nonexistence was a better fate, but then a gream of hope appeared, his old boss had shown up, but instead of saving him, it took the artifact and left. The despair was so great that his psyche was broken, and the man known as Ushiromiya Battler had died. But the strong feelings that he felt didn't vanish, instead descending to another plane and became the manifestation of all the world's evil. Meanwhile, a priest descended to hell and defeating it's master, appointed what was left of Battler as the new king of hell, and much like La Parka I was the vessel of the former king, La Parka II was the vessel of the new one. And with that, he got the idea of a death game to find the most appropriate vessel to replace La Parka II. By enacting his vengeance, the last 10 will engage in a war to become his vessel against their will.

Everyone is speechless, but 47 makes his answer. The question didn't matter, just who answered first to challenge him. Saihara asks why he wrote his own name, to which 47 responds that it was his way of atoning; he had known for a while about the truth, but he refused to accept it, and took such a ridiculous persona to avoid the fact.

However, 47 is defeated, and hope is lost. BANS shoots Tohya in the head, and The Final Rumble begins.

Saihara is thrown off Pegasus and.

Episode 7

Sminem summons Saihara as being a detective, he will be able to assist Phoenix Wright in his investigation, and after greeting, Sminem dubs them "The Mystery Masters". Wright is unsure, but Sminem trusts he can do it, and leaves Wright with a cryptic mention of the danger a life such as his' leads before leaving.

Episode 8

Without evidence nor testimonies from security, Saihara starts to doubt if Sminem could have been off the mark, but Wright is completely sure on his knowledge of the company. Their next target is Sminem's talent scout, Amami Rantaro, although Saihara isn't too sure about him.

Amami is glad to see Wright back especially after all he went through to scout him in Japanifornia, although travelling has always been one of his fortes. Wright says it's all thanks to Sminem he's back, and Amami apologizes, but Wright can't help but remember when he received the terrible news...

Kyle Hyde met him backstage after finding the body and calling the last dialed number without knowing who else to inform it to. Wright couldn't believe it at first, but Kyle thinks it really puts into perspective how fragile life is.

Kyle notices his "penchant" for wrestling and hopes he can honor him by putting great matches in his honor, and Wright swears to finish the job he started on the investigation. Back from his memory, Saihara pushes Wright out of the way when a sky-high stack of chairs are about to fall on top of him. Wright drags his body to the infirmary, but his path is blocked by The Janitor who states the "thread is closed". Wright tells him to clean up the chair, but Janny says that he's not his boss and questioning moderation is a bannable offence.

Janny, however, stands his ground, but is quite gassed after the fight and Wright isn't budging either. He's really dying for some Nutri Deli but he can't afford to lose the job...

He doesn't remember any rules about spilling the beans on his application, so he's about to disclose who closed the infirmary when–BANG–an assailant out of view shoots him! Wright is out of time, so he rushes to the infirmary with Saihara. Janny can't find his last hotpocket... Putting him on the infirmary's stretcher and waits for the doctor to come. Amami shows up again wondering what happened and is informed some chairs fell on him, which he remembers seeing backstage. He also wonders about the guy bleeding outside but Wright tells him not to worry about it. Amami leaves for a meeting, and Wright wonders just what would Sminem do in his situation...

Episode 9

After leaving the office, Wright notices Saihara is walking around while still wounded, but Saihara didn't even notice and both start to question the nature of his treatment, when Miles Edgeworth arrives (after doing one full fledged entrance).

Miles comes to take measures about his father, and Wright & lackey accompany him to the doctor's office where Gregory is resting. While the doctor is busy, Miles tries to get his father to come with him, but he resists saying that he's felt no pain, even though Miles points out he was KO'd by HUNK and forced himself to keep going. Even though he knows his father doesn't lie, he's still far too old and wants him out, but Greg's raised voice in protest draws Vitalik's attention; after having his sleep disturbed, he came to greet Wright and poke fun at how "skinny" he looks now, and agrees that Greg knows better than Miles in both wrestling experience and backstage issues to have decision over him, and his contract isn't expiring anytime soon either. However, when "the demon prosecutor" sharpens his glasses and asks if he needs to take it to court, Vitalik is silent before backing down, and Miles takes his father away.

Saihara points out Greg's condition can't be good if he visits the infirmary so often, and Wright sees how quickly he gave up when legals was brought up.

He tries to call Kyle, but he doesn't pick up, and Saihara notices that Greg's situation is similar to his own, which can only leave one common factor: Dr. Piccolo arrives and sees them rummaging through his office and has to try to take Wright out by force.

After the fight, Wright tries to appeal to his conscience, and Piccolo confesses that he's tired of this as well and after working so hard to make people get better, he can't keep up with this. Wright offers him to join them even.

But before he can reveal the man behind–BANG–a shot came from nowhere and hit him. Amami enters after hearing the noise, and comments how he found Wright again with a wounded staff member after he's been following them around before leaving. But, Amami also comes up a bunch...

Finally Kyle contacts Wright, who comments that Coolsville is taking a dark turn and the police are on the move everywhere. Wright tells him that stuff has been going in TFR too, and Kyle has a lead he needs to confirm about TFR's behind-the-scenes operations, ending the call with both agreeing to keep looking on their end.

Episode 11
Wright decides to pursue Amami, although Saihara is concerned about going against their own, especially now that the city is in such a bad state since the president's demise being a big deal. Wright agrees...

On their search for Amami, they are met with Gregory Edgeworth again. Greg investigated the crime scene and came up with a theory (Wright discreetly asks Saihara to call Miles' number while Greg explains his theory). Miles arrives and traps Greg in his "chess dimension", thanking Wright for the call since his father doesn't seem well at all.

Back on track, Amami finally appears; he's been keeping track of "Sminem's dogs" since he believes he's behind the backstage incidents, and asks for Wright to tell the truth even it takes his life, for that strong is his desire to expose the truth. Amami however is surprised when Wright explains that if his objective is the truth, them and Sminem are their allies, and Vitalik the true enemy. Amami reveals everything he knows: everyone has been victims of something bigger than TFR, a match rigging scandal. Even Amami himself was forced to be part of it as TFR staff member, but he gathered evidence, and is ready to reveal it even if it kills TFR, even if it kills pro-wrestling!

Wright can't stand his words and slaps him, and teaches him to love wrestling the only way he can: with a match!

Amami finally understood again what it's like to wrestle outside of a script, and with a sight of relief now that he's sure they are not the ones cleaning up the evidence, he realizes what a mistake would've been to let it all go just because of his wounded heart.

Amami gathers all the evidence and is ready to hand it to Wright but–BONK–a steel-put ball lands on his head. Phoenix Wrong appears to take the evidence, and tells his brother it was finally his time to spread his wings and fight for himself. Wright tries to reminds him of their time at the orphanage, but it falls on deaf ears, and Wrong runs away. Saihara tries to console him, but Wright's head hurts...

Steeling himself to face his brother, Wright vows to keep his grip in any situation, and receives a call from Kyle...

I'll go back inside those vents. There's a lot to explore... Maybe, that way, I could find them...

Darkness covered me, and suddenly I was transported somewhere.

From now on, I'll make it my goal to discover how they work.

I'll go back. I must go somewhere else. I must investigate further.

I'll make sure to write down anything I find. ...he finds what appears to be a previous page, not a following of the last.

Episode 6

Lost without an answer, Saihara just questions, questions everything about these vents, even questioning if an answer to those questions will ever be found.

Suddenly, a page is found, but it's blank. Yet a voice suddenly echoes asking for it to be given back.

It's none other than Amami Rantaro. Long ago, Amami wanted to ambush Saihara and entered the vents. However, he found himself lost. After being lost for long enough, he started to document the vents in detail, and eventually found a way back home, but he lost his research notes as well and decided it would be a waste not to take them with him.

Saihara asks him to explain how the vents works, but before he can say more than where to go, a metal ball falls on his head and the first Amami Rantaro, dies.

Without more options, Saihara follows his instructions.
