Plot
A year has passed since Vent defeated X. He has since separated from Ciel and the Resistance, now wandering the desert and defeating countless Pantheons. The Eight Gentle Judges have assumed command over Neo Arcadia, leading to a civil war between the loyalists, lead by the Four Guardians and the compromisers, lead by Zero(who has been awakened after X's and Omega's defeat). The Resistance is now being led by a Reploid named Elpizo, while Ciel continues her work on a new form of energy that will hopefully eliminate the need for war.

Vent wearily makes his way through a sandstorm wrapped in a tattered cloak. As the sands die down he is once more being chased by enemies. Despite being in disrepair, with cracked armor and broken weapons, he charges into the fray. After the battle, Vent collapses from exhaustion and is found by Zero and Axl. Wishing to take Vent's life in battle rather than letting him perish from exhaustion, Zero rescues Vent and covertly delivers him to a location near the Resistance base. While Ciel is en route to Neo Arcadia to propose the Ciel System in hopes of ending the conflict and the genocide of Reploids, a spaceship with the Dark Elf's energy reading crashes to Earth.

Vent sets out to investigate, but instead finds some the Guardians (Zero, Axl and Harpuia) fighting against the Baby Elves. He learns that Elpizo is planning a frontal assault on Neo Arcadia, as he doesn't believe in Ciel's plan of creating energy as means to resolve the war. Unable to convince him to call it off, Vent is left to do busy-work in the meantime.

The Dark Elf appears in a human residential district in Neo Arcadia, leading Dr. Weil to launch a missile in order to incapacitate it. Although successful in partially unsealing the Dark Elf, the incident kills thousands of humans. Following this event, Ciel rescinds her offer of the Ciel System, leading Dr. Weil to brand the Resistance as Mavericks and subsequently launch an invasion against them. The Resistance is able to delay the invasion until Vent locates Dr. Weil, who declares himself the new ruler of Neo Arcadia.

Elpizo's assault fails miserably, himself being the only survivor. Driven mad, he declares his desire to harness the power of the Dark Elf to destroy Neo Arcadia (and wipe out the humans), which had brought about the Elf Wars a century ago that left the Earth in a disastrous state. Using the powers granted by the partially unsealed the Dark Elf, he invades Neo Arcadia and breaks into the temple where the original body of X is kept. It is revealed that X ended the Elf Wars by sealing the Dark Elf away with his body, thus leading to the creation his defective body. Despite the Guardians' and Vent's best efforts, Elpizo destroys X's body, which fully unseals the Dark Elf, and Elpizo absorbs its powers.

After a fierce battle, Vent puts an end to Elpizo's plans, who reverts to his normal self and apologizes as he dies. Surprisingly, the Dark Elf turns him into a Cyber-elf, convincing Elpizo that she is not truly evil. As the Dark Elf departs, X appears and tells Vent about the Dark Elf: she was originally known as the Mother Elf and was the savior who ended the Maverick Wars, but was later cursed by Dr. Weil. Vent admits to feeling like he knows her.
