The Gold Saints' sacrifice in the Underworld allowed Seiya and his friends to continue their fight against Hades, and the Wailing Wall was destroyed as a result. Aioria and the other Gold Saints, who had died in the battle, unexpectedly return to life on a peaceful Earth. The circumstances of their resurrection are unclear, but Aioria is drawn into a new conflict and experiences a significant change to the Leo Cloth when his Cosmo exceeds its limits.
