Ryu Hayabusa vs Cervantes de Leon
The mood within the Dead or Alive camp is one for celebration.
Ryu Hayabusa, modern-day super-ninja, curio and antique shop owner, and member of the Hayabusa clan, has gained his Doctorate in Archaeology (a reference to his father, who was an amateur archaeologist in the Original Trilogy) at the tender age of 25.
Before 'Doctor Hayabusa' could relish in his work and his success, someone crashes the party, with a letter of challenge.
Through Ryu's hard work, he has accquired the legendary Soul Edge. Thought to have been destroyed, the weapon was found in several pieces, which gains the attention of the immortal Pirate, Cervantes de Leon.
Through one of his minions, Ryu receives the letter. Should Ryu win, then Cervantes will leave him be. But if Cervantes wins, not only does he get Soul Edge back, but Ryu's Dragon Sword as well.
The battle takes place inside the DOA Wrestling ring. Fighters from all over the world (i.e. other game companies) are here to witness this epic battle.
The announcer makes the introductions:
"From Soul Calibur...he is the undispuited Pirate Lord of the Seas, Cervantes de Leon!"
Cervantes' theme (No Regrets) is heard as the immortal pirate, armed with his dual swords appear and makes his way down the ring. The cheers are loudest from his lackeys.
"And from Dead or Alive by way of Ninja Gaiden...the modern-day super-ninja and winner of the second Dead or Alive Tournament, Ryu Hayabusa!"
Ryu's (unofficial) theme, The Parasprinter, is heard from the speakers as the ninja, in his black ninja costume, sans cowl and mask strides to the ring. Several schoolgirls faint at the sight of him.
Ryu hops into the ring and faces off against Cervantes.
This battle is about to begin.

It's sort of confusing actually. Ryu may've acquired Soul Edge in that little made-up story of his, but I can't tell whether he's actually using it in the battle, nor was it mentioned that he's using a weapon in the battle, though seeing as Cervantes is armed with weapons, Ryu should at least be using the Dragon Sword.
Cervantes would lose more times than not with the completed Soul Edge, if Ryu has either the True Dragon Sword, the Plasma Saber Mk.II, or the Dark Dragon Blade at his disposal.

Cervantes goes like this: CounterHit 3aB, Back Turned A+B (stuns Ryu), 8WR 3B, 2A+B, and seamlessly comboing into another 8WR 3B for the relaunch. By this point Ryu has already lost more than ˝ of his health bar. Cervantes wins and drags Ryu’s soul to Hell with him.
