Otherwise, I'm sorry; I don't understand your question.

However, with a synonym: Does Kyoso no Oni xP3 overcome The Last One? Simple yes or no is fine.

With further explanation: Should a personality have The Last One used upon them, would the playing of Kyoso no Oni by her text, being that which destroys a personality with gold cost greater than the first personality, destroy that second personality (being the one upon whom the Last One was applied, rather than the personality first destroyed by her trait)?

Ah, I see now.

Yes, Kyoso no Oni Exp 3's triggered trait can destroy a Personality targeted by The Last One.

: "...until the end of the game, other players' actions can not... destroy him."

A trait is not an action.
