Long Summary
Several monsters are shocked to find that their attacks, despite their variety, have no effect on Puri-Puri Prisoner. They express disbelief at the hero's resilience and durability. Puri-Puri Prisoner explains that by embracing pain with love, he is able to withstand their blows. He names his technique Angel ☆ Hug. Realizing their strength is insufficient, the monsters attempt to flee, only to be intercepted by the Demon-level monster Baquma, who inhales the escaping monsters, except for Electric Catfish Man, and absorbs their powers.
Baquma then launches a series of attacks at the hero, but Puri-Puri Prisoner remains unfazed. The monster mocks his twitching, but Puri-Puri Prisoner reveals it to be the foundation of a new fighting style: Vibration ☆ Angel. He then smashes through Baquma and defeats him. Maiko Plasma, who had been absorbed by Baquma, manages to survive and is rescued by Electric Catfish Man.
Shortly after, Puri-Puri Prisoner hears the voices of the monsterfied inmates and expresses sorrow over their transformation into Mysterious Beings. Believing they were forced into serving the Monster Association, he vows to save them. The inmates try to explain their hatred toward him, but he continues to ignore their words. Nyan interrupts, declaring that once a human becomes a monster, there is no return. He slashes Puri-Puri Prisoner, severely injuring him, and leaves the rest to the inmates. Still, Puri-Puri Prisoner stands tall and proclaims that as long as the heart remains human, one is still human.
He then discovers his body is now covered in hair, which acts as a shield, and names this new defense Angel ☆ Bristle Armor. Disturbed by Puri-Puri Prisoner's bizarre nature, Nyan decides to leave him to the other executive members and escapes through a narrow crack. Puri-Puri Prisoner gives chase, inventing a new technique on the spot: Angel ☆ Crawl. However, he accidentally crushes most of his fellow inmates under falling debris. He accepts their sacrifice and swears to avenge them, while one surviving disembodied inmate head voices annoyance at his actions.

Puri-Puri Prisoner killing Baquma in the original version.
- Originally, Puri-Puri Prisoner's sweater and part of his prison outfit were removed as he killed Baquma with his Vibration Dark ☆ Angel ☆ Rush, only for those clothes to somehow regrow in the next page. When Yusuke Murata realized this, he went back and drew the clothes in.
