Blue Dragon (Uncut)

The Blue Dragon has been awakened–but can Shu control it? He’ll need the help of Zola, a shadow wielder who takes it upon herself to educate the boy about shadow powers, as well as the Book of the Beginning.

Training under Zola, Shu is eager to prove that he’s worthy of being a Shadow wielder, but summoning and controlling the Blue Dragon at will isn’t going to be easy.

Shu and his comrades wander into a town that has been decimated.

Shu and the others have invaded a Grankingdom base where some villagers are being held.

Our heroes are determined to visit Jibral Castle, where they seek the king’s help.

When Shu and the others arrive at Jibral Castle, they hear rumors spreading rapidly about ghosts. When Zola's party becomes the prime suspect, the group is compelled to solve the mystery.

At their meeting with the king of Jibral, Zola requests permission to view the “Book of the Beginning.” Shu is eager to meet Conrad, a reputed Kinght Master, but is put on hold by Grankingdom's attacks by their new weapon: The "Black Shadow Type One."

During the battle with the Grankingdom, seven pages from the “Book of the Beginning” were stolen—pages with key information about Shadow powers.

Zola's group arrives at the republic of Metia, the country next to Grankingdom. Thinking they have the advantage to sneak into Grankingdom, General Logi is already conducting an ambush using his formidable Shadow wielders, Gilliam, Cynthia, and Lemaire.

Plagued by doubts about his inexperience, Shu can’t draw out all of Blue Dragon’s power against General Logi.

In a face-to-face confrontation with Nene, Shu and the others find that his power is more overwhelming than Zola imagined. Kluke's need for power causes the shadow Phonenix to emerge within her causing Nene to unleash enormous power that could expunge space itself.

Thanks to Kluke’s activating Phoenix, the group has escaped death, but their defeat weighs heavy on them. This brings a cloud of guilt for Shu because he was unable to protect Kluke. Jiro and Shu take their frustrations on each other, but suddenly Legalas then appears with information about the stolen Extra Seven.
