Dante demands them to let him go by, they refused and attacked Dante. Both Agni and Rudra fight with sword combat and doing running slashes, but Agni fights with fire, and Rudra fights with Wind. After one of them gets defeated, the other one tries to grab the sword and fights with a dual sword, doubling their power.
