Vandread Season 1 Episode 9 More Barbaric Than Heaven

In Vandread season 1 episode 9 "More Barbaric Than Heaven", we find the Nirvana crew continuing their journey to Mejale, a planet said to be rich in medical resources. However, their arrival is met with hostility as they are greeted by a group of Terran pirates, led by a woman named Buzam. The pirates are looking for something on Mejale and they will stop at nothing to get it - even if it means destroying the planet.

The Nirvana crew is initially caught off guard by the pirates' attack, but they quickly put up a fight. Buzam and her team are relentless, however, and the battle takes a toll on both ships. As the fight continues, Hibiki starts to notice that Buzam has a different perspective on things than the other pirates. She seems to be interested in him and the two of them have a conversation via video communication. Buzam reveals that she is searching for something called the "Emblem of Nirvana" and believes that Hibiki may hold the key to finding it.

Hibiki, confused by this revelation, decides to investigate further. He sneaks onto the pirate ship and is able to uncover some information about the emblem. It turns out that the emblem holds the key to opening a gate that leads to a powerful weapon - one that could potentially destroy the entire universe. Hibiki realizes that he must stop Buzam from obtaining the emblem at all costs.

The Nirvana crew hatches a plan to trick the pirates and lure them away from Mejale. They create a fake emblem and trick Buzam into thinking that she has found it. She takes the fake emblem and leaves the planet, believing that she has won. However, when she tries to use it to open the gate, it unleashes a powerful explosion that destroys both her ship and the device that she was trying to activate.

With the pirates defeated, the Nirvana crew is able to continue their journey to Mejale. When they arrive, they are greeted by a group of friendly locals who offer to help them find the medical resources that they need. Although the journey was difficult, the crew is happy to have made it to their destination and excited to see what lies ahead.
