Determined to eliminate its competition and acquire Atsushi, the Guild has declared war against both the Detective Agency and the Port Mafia. Sensing a threat to its very existence, the Port Mafia releases its most feared weapon, Q, a boy who curses his targets, causing them to go crazy and violently attack each other. Tasked with protecting two of the Agency's employees who returned from captivity, Atsushi is instead ambushed by Q, and he uses his animal strength to inflict damage to those he should have protected.

Stumbling away, Atsushi loses confidence in his abilities. Shortly thereafter, he is captured by two Guild agents, Fitzgerald and Mark Twain, who operate on a plan prepared by Alcott and imprisoned in Moby Dick, the Guild's new headquarters. Meanwhile, Q wanders Yokohoma and decides to sow a little chaos, but he is stopped by guild member Lovecraft, who uses his abilities to twist Q's murderous intent to destroy the city and eliminate both the Port Mafia and the Agency.

While a prisoner, Atsushi becomes privy to the Guild's plan, and he decides to make an escape. Dazai returns from a meeting with the Port Mafia with a most interesting proposition. Perhaps it is time for the Mafia and the Agency to unite their forces and fight off the Guild, before it is too late ...

The story continues in Bungo Stray Dogs, Vol. 8.
