The group debates whether Armes will ever truly join them, while Jimmy dodges questions about Kaiser Gray by changing the subject. At a mountain coliseum full of traps, they meet treasure hunter Bison, searching for six golden Guardian statues, and talk him into revealing the arena. Inside, a team battle unfolds instead: Sho and Leon versus Jin and Jimmy over nine tokens, ending with Sho and Leon victorious and both Samurai Ifrit and Berserker Byakko released as guiding lights.
