Yoshio dominates Akuya's gang at the Bey Park before Zyro challenges and defeats him with Burning Upper. A speeding, unfamiliar Beyblade then blasts Yoshio's Golem out of the stadium — its owner Kira Hayama introduces his stamina-type Berserker Behemoth and demands a fight. Shinobu takes the challenge but loses when Kira's Beyblade sees through his ninja-style decoy tactics.

  • Akuya Onizaki's gang returns to the Bey Park to intimidate bladers.
  • Yoshio Iwayama defeats Akuya and his gang.
  • Zyro defeats Yoshio with Burning Upper, ending Yoshio's winning streak.

  • Kira tells Zyro he wants a Synchrom battle with him in a few days.
