You are kidding, right? That devastating attack at least left him heavily wounded, and I doubt that brutal ability can be memorized.
As for the amount of energy, unleashing the tattoo amplified his power. I guess the Fifht Wave needs that amount in order to unleash it.
Spoiler:
Notice that Saten didn't need any heat source to absorb for his Fifth Wave? Maybe his true fragment isn't absorbing kinetic energy and turning it into an offensive attack?

Spoiler for spoiler:
Good point. I thought at first that he unleashed the Fifth Wave with the amount of termal energy he absorbed beforehand, but he used the Fourth Wave, unleashing that energy, so... Ah damn, I don't know. Maybe yes, maybe not. I don't know how Saten's fragment works.

Spoiler:
Maybe there was something that we didn't notice before. I'm more interested in what Ishiyama has as his powers. Kinda find it interesting that there are now 6 (7 with Cruz but that has yet to be confirmed) people with Eden's Seeds with 2 on each side. Blade and Eve, Arclight and Riru, and now Ishiyama and Saten.
Also, now that Mio and Blade are knocked out... which leaves Cruz and Disk protecting Eve... maybe we'll see Cruz do something. It's not like Disk's "Twintails Drill" will do much of anything. Either that or they'll start telling Cruz and Disk about the EP.
Also, how many manga out there have an old man in a business suit fighting a cute lil schoolgirl? Was not really expecting that
Let's take a closer look at how Saten's abilities are named:
Fourth Wave: Consist of absorbing termal energy and releasing it in the form of a powerful attack. Absorbing the heat has the aditional ability of freezing.
Fifth Wave: Unleashed with no need of termal energy. Saten unleashes this powerful ability with no need of any external factor. As a result and since he used his left arm, the bandage shattered revealing the tatoo.
Yes, Saten's left bandage shattered not because the tattoo, but because he used his left arm to unleash the Fifth Wave. Had used his right, the result would have been same.
So I'm asking, Saten's abilities are named in numbers. What if his fragment is not absorbing kinetic energy but something bigger? Like having the control over many external factors such as the heat, the water, etc.
Also, where're the First, Second and Third?

Yeah, I went back and looked at his right fist was positioned on his tattoo and he used that to power up his attack. Now I'm going to have to go look back at when Arclight revealed his tattoo. Also wondering if Blade has one, too. And Ishiyama, Eve, and Riru, too.

Spoiler for spoiler:
The tattoo manifests itself and is visible to the human eye when the user unleashes all it's power, remember Arclight.
As for the others, I don't think they have one. To me, the probability Saten has the limbs of Christ that were missing has been rised.
The scars on his chest might also indicate he had his heart and or lungs removed. Oh wow image if originally Eve had The Second's heart and she transplanted it into Cruz's body lol
The upper half were Arclight has his tattoo located is the only that was left of Christ.
I bet not even Ishiyama knows about that, about Saten's secret.
Spoiler:
Are you saying that Saten is not only a double agent to Arclight but is also a double agent to Ishiyama? Also, I wonder why Ishiyama calls Saten 'Saten'?
Also, earlier, someone mentioned the brain scene during one of Ishiyama's monologues. I noticed he was talking about Christ, Buddah, Alexander (the Great I'm guessing) and (this took me a long time to translate and find info on but) Sugawara no Michizane (or Kan Shōjō). Kinda wondering what he means by those people when he's talking about the brain. Probably the greatest scholars of their times/areas? After all, Alexander the Great's teacher was Aristotle.
Yes. Saten withholds many info to Arclight, so why not Ishiyama too. To me it looks like Saten and Ishiyama are cooperating for their own benefit. Of course, Saten is no idiot, and knows Ishiyama was the one who found Christ's remains.

Spoiler:
I remember back in Volume 1 when Ishiyama came to see Arclight, Arclight seemed nervous around him. I wonder what their relation is, because he was surprised to see Ishiyama in BlackSpot (guess he thought he'd be away from him there in BlackSpot). I wonder if we'll ever learn what Arclight was doing in the city before Chapter 1 started as well. (since he probably was talking to Ishiyama or something)
But i dunno look you cant just say cause Saten has bandage everywere, he has the limbs or the power within the limbs of the 2nd!. Since its unknown weather its from the 2nd at all. And if he has all the limbs if he has 1 now.
Perhaps he has the power of the left arm of the 2nd..
What about the 4 missing links, 4 special Needless never more. Uten,Saten,Riru,Aruka.Uten died fast. So if looking at it logicaly, 4 limbs 4 missing link-needless...? Kurumi could have been 1 too after Uten died, Saten was rather keen on having her frozen in. It would also explain why Arclight went for Riru since she would have 1 of the 4 limb-powers?
Love this chapter, the underground would be the best place for a battlefield
in response to some things other people have mentioned.
Saten first through third waves were the freezing, the blast absorbtion, and the steam currents seen in the last fight, as i thought all of his abilities are nothing in comparison to the fifth wave
just want to mention one thing, its a good theory about the tattoted arm being the seconds origionally.
But if it is the symbol of the beast on the seconds arm, the maybe the second wasnt all he was cracked up to be.
Ishiyama power looks like space to me
I wonder if the stuff in the vial will do more than just heal eve?

Spoiler for spoiler:
No, I bet Arclight have no idea about Saten's tattoo. Saten had the bandages even ten years before, when Riru joined them. He's is stated in the plot as the one who has been Arclight's follower longer than anyone.
Those who want Teruyama and Gido's intervention raise your hands.
I'm glad to see Mio step up and fight for Blade&Co's sake. Even though she didn't get a punch in on Ishiyama, she went up against a Eden's Seed class Needless. Hope she's not too hurt, but if she fell down that hole, I hope we see her again soon...

Spoiler for spoiler:
She'll be fine, her fragment is Power afterall. However, with she down the hole and Blade defeated (and if he's not, Saten will send him another taste of his Fifth Wave), it's all up to Cruz.

Spoiler:
Well, I hope Blade and Mio are back in action soon. Right now it's just Cruz, Disk, and Eve. Wonder if Eve will do something to try and save Cruz even though she's melting. Be kinda interesting since it's only Cruz, Disk and Eve right now and none of them are in any condition to fight, let alone against 2 Eden Seed class Needless. But then again this arc is called "Eve's Story"...
