Now with the defeat of Caesar, the Oda clan is dealing with it victory. It seems with the bit a peace they obtain with Caesar defeat Da'Vinci manage to build another Mech that is similar to Nobunaga's however the interesting question is how long was he building it. Since it was made from the parts when Nobunaga first piloted the Fool. A lot of the episode focus in on Jeanne battle in learn how to use Orlean. Things prove not to be so simple was she has trouble moving Orlean let alone trying to use her Shinki.

This leads us to a building of new situation since Caesar still hasn't given up. Then to this end he approaches Uesugi Kenshin with an alliance between Kenshin and the remaining force of Takada. Although he does agree to this alliance he isn't as trusting as Shingen was, and make it clear that he doesn't like him let alone trust him. Then through this alliance it shows that Uesugi is going to make a move soon on Oda. This cause problems for Nobunaga since his people still don't truly trust him.

The alliance that Caesar form shows how little faith his people believe in him. That this leads to everyone planning to flee Owari before Uesugi arrives. This fear is not just felt by his citizens but by his advisers, that in the end everyone just wants to save themselves. They believe that Oda has no chance at victory and just wants to surrender to Caesar before anything even begins. In the end this cowardness disgust him, and when he declare why he will never allow this Da'Vinci broadcast his speech to the rest of his people. This gives the people the courage to go down his path in the same way that Nobunaga help Jeanne realize what she should really be seeking to protect. Then with this Ichihime bestows Nobunaga with what Nobuhide entrusted to her, that this cup represent the void or “Mu”. That with Mu exist everything and at the same time, that in a way this is his fathers way of telling him that he has nothing left to teach him and he has to carve his own path from now on.
