Vexen meets with Saïx at the [[Keyblade Graveyard]], where the latter questions the scientist's decision to abandon his humanity a second time. Vexen lies that his research in completing the perfect vessel is all that matters to him. However, he admits that he is very close to making a vessel that would become a true person once a heart is given to it.

Vexen lies that his research in completing the perfect vessel is all that matters to him. However, he admits that he is very close to making a vessel that would become a true person once a heart is given to it. Through his continued experiments, Vexen creates a new replica body to host the [[Riku Replica]]’s heart from the past—called [[Dark Riku]]—which takes [[Demyx]]’s place in the Organization, and even succeeds in bringing back [[Xion]] to serve as the thirteenth member of the group.<!--not sure how to storylink, Ultimania makes it clear Vexen made the new Dark Riku prior to KH3D ending-->


Hearing of the [[Black Box]] and rumors of [[Davy Jones]] being able to exist without a heart, Vexen accompanies [[Luxord]] to [[The Caribbean]] to find out how this is possible along with whether or not the Dead Man's Chest is the box they are looking for. However, Vexen is disappointed when he finally sees inside the chest, and learns that it contains a physical organ, not a metaphysical [[Heart]].

Upon hearing that [[Ansem, Seeker of Darkness]] went to search for his former master, [[Ansem the Wise]], Vexen follows them to [[Twilight Town]]. He uses [[Dusk]]s to save [[Hayner]], [[Pence]], and [[Olette]] from Ansem’s wrath. Finding them in the underground tunnel, Vexen appears before his former master and bows in respect, telling him that he became a Nobody again to make amends and thwart Xehanort’s plans from within his group. Later, Vexen meets with Demyx at [[Radiant Garden]] and manages to convince him to take a blank replica and Ansem the Wise to [[Ienzo]], so they could prepare it to house Roxas’s heart.
