VS Holy Sol Temple arc
After explaining why he has surrendered his body to the Sun God to a church member at the The Holy Sol Temple – Holy See, Raffles questioned if the people of Asakusa still reject the grace of Amaterasu. Being informed that the cardinals haven't provoked Benimaru Shinmon, Raffles wondered why the town would worship such a destroyer. Immediately after, he is notified that Benimaru is attacking the compound, much to his confusion. During the assault, Raffles escapes to the Netherworld through a secret entrance underneath the church.
