To Enact Love During the Play (その劇中でアイを演じる, Sono Gekichū de Ai o Enjiru) is the 85th Night of Katsura Hoshino's D.Gray-man.
Summary
Allen proceeds to interrogate the akuma who is now almost reduced to a head. He asks him where and who is currently the Noah who sent him. Thread agrees to do so under the condition he lets him live. Allen accepts and the akuma doesn't believe him but for some reason gives him the information nonetheless. He adds that all his friends as well as 5 Noah including the Earl himself are there. Allen touches his head with his claw and suddenly the akuma tells him to use the ark to go to Edo. Allen asks why did he say that and the akuma mysteriously answers. The exorcist finally delivers the final blow.
The new form of Allen's innocence is named Crown Clown. Allen passes a medical examination which are positive. Bak Chang reflects about Allen's case: The unstability of his body, his mind and how the innocence reacts to all this. After hearing the name, Allen asks if the innocence is strong to which Bak nods. Meanwhile, the Science Section examinate the Noah's Ark and prepares it to be usable. Gigi Lujun tells the juniors to derive the data before sending them to the European Branch who'll determine what to do with them. Rohfa, Rikei and Shifu dream about the Headquarters while Allen visits For's gate. They chat a bit about the future before embarking.
