	Assuming that Mai chose to kill Griffin, Muro evolved into a towering muscular, horned form, upon the arrival of Mai in the final battle. In his enormous form, he was protected by ~~his own equivalent of a~~ [[~~force shield~~]] most of the time, and could also reach out over great distances with bolts of energy at his foes. His powers seemed to combine the attributes of both [[Mukade]] and [[Barabas]] being able to drain energy and heal, as well as slam the ground to generate shockwaves, and possessed horns from his head as well as spikes coming from his back. Muro's mutant form was enormous and heavy, possibly weighing an excess of one ton, and standing more than 3 meters in height. In this battle, he would fight [[Mai]] alone, in a one-on-one battle.

An alternative logical explanation would suggest that timing may have played a part in the formation of mutant Muro rather than his traditional form.

	In the sense of timing, Mai had a greater period of time collecting the information, because Griffin was killed and otherwise would have provided some assistance in getting Mai to her drop zone in the Syndicate Base, having an estimate already of the location of the base from the tracking of Muro's aircraft. Griffin would also have been bringing his own strike force to assist Mai on the rooftop, as the alternate final battle in which Griffin was spared does show this. However, during the extra time for Mai to jack the data and the aircraft, Muro performed whatever tasks were ~~neccessary~~, possibly self-inflicted trauma, to stimulate his final mutation upon Mai's arrival.

	Muro may very well have literally have transformed, as elements of his transformation are shown in the cases of [[Mukade]] and [[Barabas]]. Barabas possessing the horned head and significantly tall stature, while Mukade demonstrated lightning-fast strikes and seemingly red aura of energy about him. Muro, however, evolved in this "extra time" to greater power that easily combined the two aforementioned attributes, supposedly demonstrating the "ultimate state" in evolution from the Daodan Chrysalis.
