is the 52nd Page of Yūki Tabata's Black Clover.

Summary
Asta is shocked that three Magic Knight captains are here. One of the captains tells Yami that he can't hog all the fun for himself and asks strong the three are. Yami says that they are weak, but the captain does not believe Yami and says that he might just attack Yami. Yami apologizes but the captain says that he won't attack since he wants Yami to be at his best for went he rips Yami to pieces. Finral reveals that the captain talking to Yami is the Captain of the Green Mantis Squad Jack the Ripper, and also reveals that Jack is a sadist who loves destruction along with boosting that he can slash through anything. The female captain tells Yami that he can't be sitting on his butt and hiding behind a woman, but Yami counters that ground is soothing his butt. They start to bicker which ends with Yami saying that because of her sharp tongue that she is single, but she replies that she doesn't need a husband since the battlefield is her only lover. Finral reveals that the female captain is the Captain of the Blue Rose Squad Charlotte Roseray. Charlotte thinks about why she had to bicker with Yami and even worse that she had to fall for him. Nozel tells Yami that he can head home with his tail between his legs since he will capture the perpetrators. Yami and Asta suddenly start to talk about Nozel's hair, which causes Nozel to get angry and threaten them. Finral says that Nozel is the captain of the Silver Eagle Squad. Gauche asks who they are which Finral yells at him since Gauche doesn't know.

Asta get excited and decides to join in, but Nozel stops him and tells Asta that he will only get in the way. Vetto gets excited to bring despair to more people, which Liar says that he can't be bothered with this but says that he will do it for Licht. Liar charges at Charlotte saying that he will take her out to a sweet bar when he wins, but Charlotte replies that he will be going alone. Jack attacks Vetto with his Slash Magic, which Vetto manages to dodge. Vetto comments on the squad that Jack is in and how a bug wants to fight him, which Jack replies that Vetto better not underestimate bugs. Nozel decides to attack Licht, but Fana blocks the spell and tells Nozel to die. Jack asks if Nozel wants to switch opponent since his mercury was melted but Nozel replies that his mercury will not be defeated that easily since he has been fighting Fuegoreon for a long time. Finral is surprised by the battle and says that its like watching the armageddon. Yami asks if Finral can use his magic, which Finral says that they should get out of here but is shocked by Yami's face. Licht is watching the battle and comments about how the captains are strong. Licht also says that the captains can't win since the Third Eye are loved by mana. Licht also thinks about how they have to get the Grimoire back from Asta since Asta can't have it because he is hated by mana. A portal suddenly appears above Licht, which Yami appears thinking that he wasn't going to let Licht go. Licht knew that Yami would appear and prepares to counter. Asta suddenly appears from the battle which shocks everyone to wonder how he got through the battle and that no one could sense him since he has no mana. Yami thanks Licht for focusing on him so that he can put his faith in Asta. Asta then tells Licht that not giving up is his magic and attacks Licht.
