Following advice by Arion he awakened Devilfish, who at first, gladly joined the team. During their scouting mission though the team didn't follow the plan and charged to the alien tower completley obliterating it without finding out who is responsible.

Devilfish shortly after left the team, saying he wanted to follow someone who would provide constant chance for battle.
