Ikuma Arc

The Ikuma arc was the 1st arc of the Deadly Sin 2013 series and the 5th overall. It marked the return of Deadly Sin to the WSM and changed many character personalities. It was teased during a chapter of FT and later announced on February 20th 2013.

The Pain of Loss...
6th months after the events of the Faction War, the world has been damaged and a relief effort was put into place. Also, the Abnormals were kept in check and were not allowed out of their bases. Fortunately for Evan... this gives him a lot of time to mourn for Bryce, his now dead brother. This is also unfortunate for the other Hunters, Noah and Logan, because now they have to listen to him cry for the next 6 months.

On December 21st 2022, the President of the United States gives a letter to all the bases allowing them to go to the Capitol Building (In D.C.) for a meeting about the future of the 4 factions.

The Hunter, Zero and Xemo factions all show up (The Killers don't. It is presumed that they got no invites) where it is revealed that they have made a compromise. In order to make sure that none of the Abnormals do anything rash, the abnormal factions will be unofficially dissolved in favor of a life link system.

Two Abnormals who don't know each other will be put together in a system where if one dies, the other one dies. The original plan was to rig it and make sure that everyone ends up with someone from Xemo. However, Evan ends up an oddball and is put with Ma-Z, a girl from the Zero clan.

They recognize each other (She offered to seal Bryce to end the Faction War. Evan refused and Bryce went on to kill Slater and Spazz in the next chapter so Ma-Z is bitter about that.)
