It has been seven years since the ultimate fight which resulted in No. 1 Blader in the World, Gingka Hagane defeating the God of Destruction, Nemesis, and as a result, saving the world from a demise. Zyro Kurogane, an admirer of Gingka Hagane, is dashing in the streets, in a hurry, and quite worried. A Beyblade tournament is going on, with one Blader winning against the other. After that match, Zyro quickly arrives where he is ready and confident for his battle. Zyro and his competitor are ready, while Zyro reveals his Beyblade, Samurai Ifrit. They begin and yell "3... 2... 1... Let It Rip!". The Bladers launched their Beys in an ultimate fight. With Samurai Ifraid getting some successful hits against the opponent and with the upper hand. Soon enough, Zyro decides to end it as he commands Ifrit to jump into the air, where Samurai Ifrit is then commanded to strike downwards and hit the opponent. In the end, Zyro takes the win as he and Samurai Ifrit are proud of the victory. Which people cheering and such, Zyro decides to thank one person in all his might, Gingka. And Zyro also feels as if he is strong enough to take on anyone and with all this training. He has a flashback to the past, a moment in the past where Zyro was a young child, and Gingka gave young Zyro his future Beyblade, Samurai Ifrit. Ever since then, Zyro had idolized Gingka and has wished to be just like him, and with it, he will make it. Later, at the WBBA, Tsubasa is at work where he receives an incoming transmission from his co-worker, Madoka Amano at the B-Pit. Tsubasa is now the Director of the WBBA while Madoka manages the B-Pit. Madoka tells Tsubasa some news and which Tsubasa replies. Later, Madoka is about to open the door for the B-Pit where subsequently, a group of young children in a large pack, startle and surprise Madoka. Zyro is then shown to be walking along, finding Bladers battling and training. One such Blader makes a mistake and accidentally shoots his Beyblade near Zyro. The Blader apologized, but Zyro does not mind and happily gives him his Bey back. The boy thanks Zyro and tells him of a tournament that is happening close to the training site. Zyro is surprised, and dashes to the tournament. Zyro gets to the tournament, and is totally in awe. He finds that the tournament is not like normal ones, in fact, it is based on Zero-G. Beyblade has entered a new era, where BeyStadiums now move and completely change the game like never before. Maru, a fellow Beyblade mechanic much like Madoka, is watching the battle as she analyses it with her laptop. Zyro takes a gander at the battle, seeing how the BeyStadium they are in, is remotely large. With Bladers standing on platforms held in the air where the BeyStadium moves in a circular motion as the Beys fight. Drastically adding more factors to the battle and making it more enjoyable and suspenseful. The battle ends, and Zyro wants to go next. Three Bladers stop Zyro and tell him that they are next in line and Zyro will have to wait. Zyro tells him that he is very eager to battle as this is his first time battling in Zero-G. The three Bladers make a compromise with Zyro and tell him he can go next as long as they fight Zyro, in a 9 vs. 1. Zyro agrees, much to their surprise and prepare for it. Everyone is ready and they all yell "Let It Rip!" as the Beys are launched. Every Beyblade fights fiercely as Zyro and Ifrit are ready for anything. However, what the three Bladers don't tell Zyro is that they are teaming up against Zyro. They gang up on Zyro and start clashing and battling Ifrit, trapping it. Zyro is startled, but quickly recovers. He commands Samurai Ifrit to escape which is successful and the tables get turned. Zyro has Samurai Ifraid start to attack and push back the nine Beys. As this rages on, Zyro puts his full potential into this and as a result, wins the match of the Zero-G BeyStadium. People around cheer as Zyro gives a speech to everyone of his own victory. However just then, a Blader comes by with his voice startling people but making Mal excited. The Blader introduces himself as Shinobu Hiryūin, with his Beyblade, Ninja Salamander, and he challenges Zyro to a battle. To test the actual power he has; Zyro accepts. Shinobu warns him though, that he is the Best Blader around this part of the city and Zyro will have to work hard in it.

Zyro accept nonetheless and the two prepare their Beys. With Zyro and his Samurai Ifrit, they will be giving it their all against Shinobu and his Ninja Salamander. Zyro Kurogane and the "Invincible Salamaner", Shinobu Hiryūin are in the premise of their battle; a battle royale. With Zyro eager to take on the BeyPark's No. 1 Blader, while Shinobu wants to show Zyro what happens to those, who change the ways of the BeyPark. They both get ready to do battle in the humongous Zero-G Stadium, with their Beys being set up and ready to shoot, they prepare for their match. They are finally ready, "Let It Rip!" and begin the battle. Zyro commands Samurai Ifrit to get some hits at Shinobu's bey, Ninja Salamander. It is nothing but useless, as Shinobu is having Salamander dodge and use the Stadium's slope to his very advantage. Zyro is not very keen on this and tries his best to use some counters and such, but to no luck. Shinobu continues to play and toy with Zyro and his Samurai Ifraid, making Zyro even more furious and desperate to find a way. Zyro then commands Ifrit to strike a direct hit at Salamander, yet it too, is futile when Salamander dodges. Zyro seems to have had enough and won't take it any longer, so he has Ifrit attack once more, yet Ninja Salamander dodged again and throws Samurai Ifrit up into the air. Zyro uses this as his advantage as he begins his special move, Shooting Star Crush. Samurai Ifrit uses this and strikes downward, aiming to knockout Ninja Salamander. Shinobu however, is shocked and worred at this and in a quick reflex, commands Salamander to dodge it. However as a result, several cracks and heavy damage is done to the Stadium's centre, shocking nearly everyone; including Zyro Kurogane. Shinobu uses this as his advantage with Salamander getting direct hits and in the end, pushes Ifrit to an escape pocket of the Zero-G Stadium and knocks-out Samurai Ifrit. Giving Shinobu Hiryūin the win, and ending Zyro Kurogane's consecutive victories. Zyro is quite shocked and leaves the BeyPark afterward. Zyro is then walking on the sidewalk, thinking of the battle he just had. He is respective towards Shinobu's strength and power, but will need to be more powerful before he thinks he can take on the Invincible Salamander. He heads to a burger joint; which happens to be owned by Benkei Hanawa. As Zyro enters, the owner, Benkei gives Zyro a meal consisting of a triple-beef burger, side fries, and a beverage. Zyro marvels at Benkei's generosity and eats the triple-beef burger, enjoying it so with delight. Mal then pops out of nowhere, eating some of Zyro's fries, while startling Zyro. Zyro tells Benkei that he just had a battle with Shinobu Hiryūin, and is trembling at what to do. He wants to get stronger, but with the immerse power Shinobu holds, Zyro doesn't think his luck will do him any good. Zyro also tells that he wants to match the likes of No. 1 Blader, Gingka Hagane, and become the next No. 1. Benkei is skeptical at first, yet tells Zyro that he himself knew of Gingka, as well as former Beyblade legend, Kyoya Tategami; who Zyro appears to be unaware of. Kyoya was an old friend of Benkei, yet in a long time, Benkei hasn't seem him. Just then, Benkei tells Zyro that he decided he will train Zyro to become stronger than Shinobu and match the likes of Gingka Hagane. Zyro is very thankful towards Benkei while Mal tells the two she will help as well. With two people to Zyro, he'll do all he can to train to his fullest and become even stronger than before.

Zyro Kurogane is in the midst of his training. Benkei Hanawa, an old friend of Gingka Hagane has a kindred spirit that Zyro found in him. Zyro's passion for becoming the next No. 1 and to defeating Shinobu Hiryūin showed Benkei his potential, and with this, he and Mal have agreed to be helping him. Zyro starts off by running along the slope of a street hill, while tied to a platform, of which Mal is happily sitting on. Benkei is right next to them, riding on a sort of motorcycle, as he encourages Zyro to get to his best. The process is difficult for Zyro as he is trying his best to not giving up. Yet, when Benkei tells Zyro that he'll never beat Shinobu if he does not pass this, Zyro angers at the name and at the moment, Zyro speeded up along the hill. For the next training, Benkei orders Zyro to hold two pails of water, while his arms go straight. The catch is, he has to stay still and not move a single muscle at all. This too is very hard for Zyro yet Benkei tells him he made the time; and as a result, caves in and collapses to the ground, in pain and agony. Later trainings include Zyro getting into a bunked outside bed, and launching his Bey from there while not getting tied up, committing push-ups with Mal on his back, squat thrusts while carrying Mal, and lastly, sit-ups. Then comes dawn where Shinobu is seen, thinking to the previous battle. He finds Zyro dashing at the hill, which startles Shinobu for a second. Later, at Benkei's burger-shop, the gang take a break and eat some of Benkei's famous burgers. Mal later talks to Madoka of some occurrence. The next day, Zyro is seen doing the first exercise he made, running along a hill yet without Mal, instead three platforms this time. Zyro puts full throttle into this yet finds an occurrence with a skateboarding young boy. He asks Zyro what and why is he running alongside a hill, to which Zyro responds to becoming the next No. 1 Blader. The boy questions this and wonders why; he even makes fun of Zyro, much to Zyro's anger. Eight then decides to leave away on his skateboard. Mal is on her way to get back to Zero in training yet the boy is dashing in front of her. He then quickly jumps and apologizes to her, yet it startles Mal and brings her to the ground. Zyro is shocked and stops his training to go look at Mal. Mal tells him he's okay and that boy they met just now, is known as Eight Unabara. Zyro does not know who Eight is, but decides he's ready to face Shinobu for a rematch. Zyro and Mal travel back to BeyPark where subsequently, a battle's occurring. The battle is between the earlier boy, Eight and another Blader. Eight wins the match with ease. He then goes to the other Blader and grabs a black marker. He draws two stars on the Blader's eyes and thus, scaring him and running away. Eight does not seem to feel any sorrow and just plain amuses himself, having a hearty laugh at what he just did. Zyro goes up to Eight and tells him that wasn't a very nice thing to do. With it, Zyro challenges Eight to a battle, in order to make him pay for what he did. Eight casually agrees to the battle in the Zero-G Stadium. Zyro shows him his Bey, Samurai Ifrit while Eight showcases his, Pirate Orochi. The two get up on their platforms and "Let It Rip!" their Beys. Zyro is gonna put his full strength because he wants to show Eight at what he has done, and show him, he's not a fool of himself.

Zyro Kurogane and Eight Unabara ready their stances, for their first battle and at the sound of "3... 2... 1... Let It Rip!", they fiercely launch their Beyblades into all the force they can achieve, they have entered the Zero-G. Eight of course, is easy-going and laid-back, thinking Zyro will not cause much damage to Eight's own Beyblade, Pirate Orochi. Zyro still, with his Samurai Ifrit do all the best they can to attack Pirate Orochi with all he can do. This turns downhill however, as Eight commands Pirate Orochi to chase Samurai Ifrit in hot pursuit. Zyro doesn't seem startled at all and turns the table on it. Eight is still though, relaxed and reassured, as if nothing Zyro does can change Eight's attitude. Mal and Madoka along with many other Bladers are the spectators with Benkei appearing to see battle unfold. Mal explains to them of the Zero-G Stadium's swaying, how it's giving Eight's Orochi the advantage and proving biased against Zyro's Ifraid. Benkei still knows that there is hope, as Zyro did not go through all that training for nothing. Eight as calm as always, has Pirate Orochi skid through the Stadium, much like how Eight rides his skateboard. Zyro is very tempted by this and tries to find out, someway to stop it. Zyro is steady, knowing he has to do something quick or fail at nothing. He has Samurai Ifrit ram at Pirate Orochi, misses, and then starts to use the swaying of the Zero-G Stadium to switch advantages. Eventually, surprising the mass audience, everyone is shocked with how Samurai Ifrit's quick advantage has done something never-before-seen. The Zero-G Stadium is actually swaying around, being very chatoic in movement, and challenging the battle even more intensely. Mal analyzes this with her BeyComputer and sees that Samurai Ifrit has greatly shifted the whole battle. While Zyro knows it is time to finish it, and so he does. He commands Ifrit, in a burning blaze of fire, while engulfed by it, commands a Special move. The motif of Samurai Ifrit appears and flashes, with Samurai Ifrit's beast appearing and attacking Pirate Orochi. After the climax of it all, Pirate Orochi has been knocked-out by Samurai Ifrit; Zyro Kurogane has defeated Eight Unabara in the Zero-G Stadium with the audience cheering in delight. Zyro approaches Eight and tells them that they had a great game, despite Eight's loss. Eight is disappointed however, accepting Zyro's sportsmanship, but very sad at his losing. Mal then comes up to Eight and tells him how it feels like to lose a battle; she grabs a black marker, similar to the one Eight uses, and similarly, draws black eye and mustache designs on Eight's face. Eight is very startled and runs off in fear. Complaining at what Mal did and swearing to come back with his brother to get revenge. He runs off away, whining and complaining. Meanwhile, back at the WBBA, Madoka talks via internet with Tsubasa. She tells him of a battle that just occurred, between a very new and strong Blader named Zyro Kurogane and his Bey. Tsubasa asks which Bey, Zyro used, and Madoka shows him, Samurai Ifrit. Tsubasa is shocked, because he recalls that Gingka Hagane gave it to Zyro sometime...

Bladers have visited the B-Pit attempting to improve their Beys to be like Zero. Zero is now a local idol. Shinobu is shown battling a Blader in the local Bey Park, merely toying with him and not putting any effort in at all. Zyro shows up and challenges Shinobu.

Again and again, he continues to win with one-hit-KOs, vowing to become even stronger. The Bey Park Bladers are amazed at Zyro's power and appear frightened.

Tsubasa mentions that, in order to test Zyro's power, and give him a chance to battle Shinobu, he is running a Tournament. Benkei offers to sponsor the tournament. The next day, Video Screens around Metal Bey City are showing a video of Blader Gai, who is informing Bladers of the Bey Park 1-Day Tournament. Shinobu appears shocked to hear of this. Benkei informs Zyro of the 1-Day Tournament, and how Bull Burger is sponsoring the Tournament. He also explains that the Zero-G Stadium is used by default, and that Shinobu will more than likely enter. Zyro jumps at this, realising that, if he and Shinobu reach the finals, Shinobu will be forced to battle him. Benkei explains to Zyro that Ifrit has more power than Zyro realises, and that he must learn to use it. Knowing this, Zyro finishes his burger and runs out of the restaurant to begin some bonus training.

Interested, Kite gets out his laptop and begins collecting data, agreeing with Eight's idea of battling Zyro himself. Everyone observes as Zyro and Shinobu storm through the tournament with great ease. Blader Gai then announces the final battle; Zyro Kurogane vs. Shinobu Hiryuin. Both Bladers take their positions on the platforms. Zyro then calls over to Shinobu, saying that he will win and prove how much stronger he has become.

Shinobu has Salamander to circle the stadium to shake it, but Ifrit catches up to it and attacks. Mal and Madoka sees that Zyro mastered the Zero-G Stadium. Eight gets mad because Zyro is copying all his moves while Kite becomes interested in the battle. Ninja Salamander does barrage attacks on Samurai Ifrit, but Zyro starts to push back.

Ren however, interrupts them as she decides to join in it too. Benkei explains the session to everyone as Eight goes rambling about his opinion at the training, at hand. Benkei explains that Synchrom is forbidden, shocking everyone else, including Mal, who wanted to collect data on different combinations. The training unfolds with a battle between Shinobu and Ren. The battle seems very one-sided, with Shinobu putting in no effort and knocking Phoenic out quickly, thinking of how to create his own special move to contest with Zyro. Zyro trains his bey's reflexes by steering around the boulders and hitting the bulls-eye. Benkei realizes he is late for work and dashes off, with Kite losing all his stamina and collapsing, leaving a bucket to cover his face with water. Later, the gang travel to Benkei's burger shop when much to their surprise, they find a very busy day for them.

While preparing, Ren spots the key to the local BeyPark hanging up and quickly grabs it, being as discreet as possible in the process. After the work is done, Ren immediately leaves, puzzling Benkei, who thought she would at least stay and have a meal on the house. Zyro expresses concern as she leaves. Shinobu begins training against a boulder, trying to increase his strength for a special move. However, Salamander quickly spins out with barrage attacks, much to his dismay. Nonetheless, he continues his training with his goal in mind. Ren enters the BeyPark using her stolen key. After running onto the platform and launching, Ren begins training her Phoenix's speed around the stadium, taking joy in being able to practice alone in the Zero-G Stadium. A boy walks in and observes Ren, mistaking her for Zyro. Ren becomes annoyed as the boy explains that he plans to challenge Zero to a battle soon and intends on winning. The boy then goes to walk away, but is stopped by Ren, who challenges him to a battle. Benkei walks out into the back room of Bull Burger and notices that the key has been stolen. Enraged, he shouts at the top of his voice, while elsewhere Takanosuke and Ren begin their battle by launching their beys.

As Ren and Takanosuke have their Beybattle, Zyro, Mal, Shinobu, and Benkei arrive in response to someone using the BeyPark; discovering it to be Ren in the process. Nevertheless, they spectate the match and ponder on the new Blader, Takanosuke. Ren's Thief Phoenix battles with Takanosuke's Archer Griffin. Phoenix appears to be having difficulty in battling Griffin, as Takanosuke unleashes a special move. Griffin's motif glows as its beast soars through the air and rams Phoenix hard. As a result, Ren is left defeated and very saddened by it. The others are shocked as well, with Zyro deciding he should battle Takanosuke. Despite this, Shinobu thinks he would be the right one to do battle, because he has an idea to create his own special move to accomplish this, he'll put his whole heart and mind into the making. When Takanosuke finds out Shinobu wants to challenge him, Takanosuke turns very excited. Knowing that the "Invincible Salamander" would like to battle him. A bit cocky, Takanosuke accepts and knows he'll try his best. The two prepare for the Zero-G Stadium and prepare to "Let It Rip!". Archer Griffin fights Ninja Salamander in the stadium with full force. The gang hope Shinobu is going to do his best, yet the problem arose when Shinobu gets it, that he's no match for the awesome power Takanosuke holds. Soon enough, Archer Griffin emits a strange howling sound. This causes it to happen every time Griffin gives a hit to Salamander. Shinobu really tries his all to stay calm and hold through it, but Griffin's might hinders it extremely. Shinobu then decides enough is enough when he conjures his heart and mind into something that will turn the tables around. Shinobu creates a special move which consists of Ninja Salamander creating multiple of itself; very similar to an illusion by the way of the ninja. Takanosuke is startles but commands Griffin to take down every multiple, until it finds the real one. In the end, its too late when it finds the real Salamander when Salamander's beast appears. Griffin has its beast also on the field but it's all the end for them, when the final blow of Shinobu creates the outcome of the battle giving Shinobu the win. With it, Shinobu is excited by it, but morally for creating his first Special move.

At a beach called Midsummer Beach, a group of people are telling one another urban legends. A man tells them of a monster that is said to lurk around Midsummer Beach. Here, this monsters comes out of the ocean and attacks anybody at the beach. The monster is said to resemble a dark and beastly ghoul, covered in seaweed with glowing red eyes, flashing. The man then concludes that it is just an urban myth and they should not worry, with a laugh of relief following. However, a monster then comes out of the water and attacks the people, calling it the monster they spoke of. The next day, Zyro and Co. have decided to go to Midsummer Beach for some rest and relaxation, to take their mind off Beyblade. Everyone has put their swimwear on, all very happy and playing at the beach. Benkei however, commands Zyro for more training, despite Zyro's refusal. Telling him that in order to become the best, he'll still have to do more training. Zyro accepts anyway as he is told to tie a rubber wheel with rope on his waist and run with it. Shinobu wants to follow as well, then soon enough, everyone else does. They all do their best to pull their weight until Madoka voluntary throws the volleyball at Zyro's head. Zyro picks it up and soon after, a game of volleyball starts with everyone in the game. Benkei instead plays with a fellow crab, curious of it. Meanwhile, Tsubasa relaxs himself at the top of a cliff drinking something. Next, they dress up and go to have some drinks. They all discuss the wonderful and fun day off they had, enjoying their refreshing cold beverages, while Tsubasa does sailing.

Zyro and Co. have just met the true identity of the "sea monster," Gen Kinokura. Upon their unusual encounter, the gang discuss what they should do, now that they've met him. Gen stops them there and tells them his back story. The reason why Gen poses as a sea monster, is because he cares deeply for beaches. However, beaches have become infested and inhabitable because of the trash and litter the people recklessly put everyday. Gen only cares for the beach, and he'll never stop as the monster unless people care for their beach. Zyro thinks he should Beybattle Gen to stop his terrible goals, yet Kite believes he himself should challenge Gen. Gen agrees to the challenge and the gang move to a water-esque BeyStadium to do battle. The competitors "Let It Rip!" and the battle begins. Mal studies Gen's Beyblade, known as Pirate Kraken and discovers something that will make the battle hard for Kite. Kraken uses the A230 Spin Track, which blocks low-attacks such as from Kite's Guardian Leviathan. A230 not only gives Gen the advantage, but stalls the battle completely. The Beybattle, originally a fight becomes a sleep-out where Kite and Gen wait impatiently for their opponent's Beyblade to stop its spin. Outside water even retreats to the BeyStadium and causes no effect. This causes everyone else besides Zyro to enjoy some summer fun rather than the boring battle. Zyro then yells out randomly and commands the battle to end, with no winner due to no result, at any time soon. Zyro tells Gen that he will fight him next, this time with a result. Zyro and Gen ready their Beys and launch into the Stadium. As hard as the battle was on Kite and Leviathan, it's the same with Zyro and Ifrit. Only worse because Samurai Ifrit is of a lower-Track then Leviathan. Zyro pulls through though, and in order to end it: he commands Samurai Ifrit to take the skies and crash back down on Kraken with his special move, Shooting Star Crush. Gen, after realizing defeat, takes his Kraken and retreats to the sea. After the not-so-fearsome battle, Zyro and Co. pack their belongings and return home to Metal Bey City. Benkei is on the top of cliff with Tsubasa and is yelling at the sunset and ocean.

At the WBBA, Tsubasa tells Zyro and co. that Zero-G stadiums are spreading around the world and wants them to demonstrate it to other bladers. They accept it and split up to different places to show how the Zero-G stadium works. Zyro arrives at a different BeyPark and the bladers challenges him to a battle. Shinobu defeats a blader and the others are ready to challenge after watching to use the Zero-G stadium. Kite and Eight arrives at another BeyPark and battle each other to show the Zero-G stadium. They launch their beys and the bladers become amazed by the battle. Pirate Orochi attacks Guardian Leviathan but it has no effect on it. Kite sends Leviathan to the center of the stadium, but Eight has Orochi to stop it. A blader in the shadows launches his bey and knocks Orochi and Leviathan out of the stadium. His bey returns to him and leaves. Ren arrives at BeyPark and finds Takanosuke there defeating a blader. He is training to defeat Zyro and Shinobu. Ren decides to him battle again to demonstrate the Zero-G stadium. They launch their beys and Thief Phoenix spins around the stadium to attack Archer Griffin but is countered. Griffin attacks Phoenix but its spin track changes to counter the attack and pushes back Griffin. As both beys push each other back, a bey is launched into the stadium and attacks both of them. The blader appears and his bey, Ronin Dragoon, is spinning in left rotation shocking Ren and Takanosuke. It stops the Zero-G stadium and attacks Griffin and Phoenix defeating both of them. Dragoon returns to the blader and Takanosuke asks who he is. The blader tells them his name is Sayko Kuroyami.

Continuing the Zero-G Stadium battles, Zyro Kurogane fights a Blader in a green Zero-G Stadium. His Samurai Ifrit knocks the opponent's Beyblade out easily, surprising the crowd. The audience is very excited and note Zyro's strength; they begin to ask Zero for a challenge. Zyro, excited, agrees to all of their challenges. The scene shifts to another Zero-G Stadium as well, where Shinobu is battling another opponent but, because of his amazing strength, he also knocks out the opponent's Bey easily with a sneak attack. The scene shifts once again as a recap of the events when Ren battled Takanosuke and the secretive, Sakyo Kuroyami appeared out of the shadows. Ren begins to get angry and challenges Sakyo in a rematch battle. Despite this, Sakyo is merely cocky and states that his Ronin Dragoon is a powerful Beyblade, and tells about how it is Left-Spin capable. Takanosuke then remembers the time when Gingka fought Ryuga who also had the Left-Spinning Bey, L-Drago, seven years ago. Ren believes that she still can defeat his Bey, no matter how strong, or even if it doesn't spin right. The two Bladers shoot their Beys, and Ren starts the battle with an attack. Dragoon and Phoenix begin clashing, but Dragoon unleashes its strength once again, and smashes Phoenix out of the stadium. However, because of the impact, Ren is also sent flying back, but Takanosuke saves her from collapsing on the ground. As a result, it angers Takanosuke and tells Sakyo that he will definitely pay for his wrongdoing. Takanosuke and Sakyo battle again, but Takanosuke reveals his true potential and sneak attacks Dragoon. They clash head on, but even Griffin is not tough enough to defeat Dragoon. Sakyo showcases Dragooon's ultimate power and single-handedly defeats Griffin, but also crashes the stadium into the air. Takanosuke is very surprised, and asks what kind of Bey does Sakyo possess. Sakyo shows off his Left-Spinning Bey, Ronin Dragoon, and tells that it is the strongest Bey ever to exist. Takanosuke then follows Sakyo in order to learn more about this mysterious Bey. Back at Shinobu's battle, he has defeated most of his opponents with ease, including Zyro. Meanwhile however, in the back are a vicious team of Bladers, laughing at Zyro. Their mysterious leader, Akuya Onizaki, pushes Zyro to the back, and challenges him to a Beybattle. Akuya gets a confidence of cockiness when he tells the audience that Zyro will lose. Akuya even frightens the crowd, making Mal enraged that she states Akuya will lose against Zyro. Zyro accepts his challenge, and the battle truly begins. Elsewhere, Shinobu is walking, yet Sakyo appears with Takanosuke. Takanosuke mentions Shinobu's name, and Sakyo wonders who this Blader could be. Sakyo then challenges Shinobu to a fierce battle. With Dragoon's beast roaring, Shinobu and Sakyo stare contently as they anticipate their battle.

After the merciless taunts by Akuya, Zyro engages him in battle to prove who will really win. As the Bladers "Let It Rip!" the members of Akuya's group join as well. They intend on helping out Akuya and taking down Zyro, even it means an unfair fight for the Blader of Fire. As they're battling the Zero-G Stadium, every Beyblade assaults and barrages Samurai Ifrit. Hitting Ifrit that it is thrown back by force and still can't seem to find anywhere to go. The pressure builds onto Zyro, with Mal attempting to figure out just what is going wrong this time. Any direction that Ifrit takes, it is attacked. One by one, every Beyblade keeps attacking Ifrit that Zyro needs something, something to change the odds. Desperate for help, with Mal still researching, Zyro needs to fight back, hard. Meanwhile, outside BeyPark are Shinobu Hiryūin and Sakyo Kuroyami. Upon a challenge requested by Sakyo, Shinobu does battle as they launch their Beyblades into combat. With Ninja Salamander armed against Ronin Dragoon. Zero is still having a very difficult time in his Beybattle. The Beys just keep on coming, all armed and ready to destroy Ifrit. All of a sudden, Mal figures out the motives behind the beys. Akuya's bey, Archer Gargole, performance tip appears to allow the Stadium in its advantage, yet Zyro can still win by using a comeback from force. Thankful for the tip, Zyro uses it as Ifrit is knocked up in the air by an opposing Bey; then the real match begins. Ifrit quickly hits the other bey and forces it back, using the same strategy. It does the same for every other beyblades, intending to use their own strategy against them. Ifrit then dashes in one direction and uses Burning Uppercut to defeat Gargole giving Zyro the win. Shinobu is experiencing similar difficulty to what Zyro had in his own. Dragoon just seems so full of power that Salamander is trying to hold on, but just can't. Takanosuke spectates and amazed at Dragoon's power, yet also fearing Salamander's loss. Upon the advent of the battle, Zyro and Mal exit and sprint away to the battle of Shinobu versus Sakyo. Having the urge to get there to find out just who Sakyo is, Zyro needs to be there and support Shinobu with Mal by his side as well. Unfortunately, as they arrive they see Shinobu and Sakyo use all their power and fury and command their respective beys to attack one another. A huge dust storm appears and when it clears, Zyro and Mal find the beast of Dragoon, roaring in the terrifying dusk.

Shinobu is sent flying to the ground and Ninja Salamander stops spinning as well. Takanosuke is shocked that Sakyo has defeated Shinobu when he couldn't. Zyro and Mal run to check on Shinobu and finds his Salamander in cracks. Zyro asks Sakyo why was he attacking the Zero-G stadiums. He tells him his going to be the top blader and defeat anyone. Zyro and Shinobu remembers Gingka strongest rival was called the "Dragon Emperor" and had a left rotating dragon bey. Sakyo challenges Zyro to a battle and they launch their beys. Samurai Ifrit and Ronin Dragoon push each other back after strong attack. Ifrit goes to attack but Dragoon doesn't let it escape. Zyro has Ifrit go behind a rock so it dodge Dragoon's attack and attacks it. The ground starts to crack as both beys attack each other and Ifrit tries to attack but is knocked into the air by Dragoon. Zyro starts to get scared as Ifrit is by attack from different directions. Mal looks on her computer and sees Ronin Dragoon's chrome wheel has three dragons on it to attack stronger. Dragoon teleports close to Ifrit and attacks it. Mal says it the effect of its blade semi-flat bottom because it makes tight turns and attack in an instant. Takanosuke sees the attack that defeated him is the same attack Archer Griffin uses being used on Ifrit. He wonders if Sakyo could him and Griffin stronger. Shinobu tells Zyro to run away from Dragoon's attack as Ifraid is being pushed back. Zyro says he can't lose because Gingka entrusted him Samurai Ifrit and to surpass him and the Legendary Bladers, he won't lose to a left rotating bey. Sakyo tells him he inherited the jet-black dragon and Zyro wasn't the only one received a bey from a Legendary Blader shocking Zyro, Shinobu, and Mal. Zyro has Ifrit to attack and Shinobu has Mal to get all of Dragoon's data. Sakyo uses his move to attack Ifrit and pushes it back. Mal says the horn its crystal wheel was able to survive Ifrit's attack and counterattack it. Ifrit survives and Zyro uses his special move but the rock breaks from its power and Ifrit stops spinning. Zyro gets angry because he could have won if the rock didn't break and if they was battling in the Zero-G stadium. Sakyo mocks him and tells him next time they'll battle in the Zero-G stadium so he can defeat him again. He leaves and Takanosuke follows him. Zyro says he'll definitely win next time.

Sprinting, Kite arrives at Bull Burger to find his brother, Eight safe from any harm. With Zyro and Co., Eight explains to Kite how he battled with Yoshio after he terrorized many Bladers with his Bey, Bandit Golem. In response, Eight impersonated Kite, the person Yoshio searched for and battled him, ultimately losing in the process. Although safe, Eight did manage to obtain a small wound on his elbow, safely covered by a bandage. Outraged by this, Kite demands to find Yoshio and make him pay for his actions. That night, Kite commits to some special training before he intended battle with Yoshio. Eight arrives soon, offering Kite the water bottle and sandwiches that he subsequently turned down the other day. Accepting it, Kite deeply apologizes for letting Eight to obtain a battle wound. Eight takes it lightly however, and is just glad that Kite is with him. The following day at the Bey Park, Yoshio just finished a victorious fight. Out of nowhere, Kite arrives with his friends, there to challenge and defeat Yoshio for assaulting his defense-less brother. Following this further, he introduces as the true Kite Unabara, whom Yoshio was seeking. Satisfied, Yoshio agrees and they begin their battle. Starting off calm, Yoshio's Bandit Golem throws down against Kite's Guardian Leviathan. Yoshio finally intends to discover who of the two is the real defender. One clash causes both Beys to spring back. Still fighting, Golem takes the lead and subdues Leviathan even further with more hits. Mal studies the actions behind Bandit Golem as it progresses. Suddenly, Kite just snaps out of his current persona and becomes enraged just like his first battle with Zyro. Decided he had enough hits to take place, Leviathan comes back and hits Golem; both extensively using their full power. Kite adds even more strength and Golem is beginning to lose grasp of it. Despite this, Yoshio commands Golem to break away. Goreim then takes its position and dashes back to Leviathan in which, they use their full power again until Yoshio entrusts his full potential to throw Leviathan back. Kite then takes a look to shockingly see parts of Leviathan broken to bits and pieces of metal. Yoshio just laughs in victory, stating that Kite and his Guardian Leviathan aren't so powerful and declaring his Golem as the true defender.

After his defeat at the hands of the powerful Yoshio and his Bandit Golem, Kite undergoes extensive training in his home. Harboring a powerful passion to pass his limits, Kite takes it extremely serious, with no hints of being passive, laid-back or even taking a break. Eight however, meets his brother and asks what he is doing. After being informed, he tells Kite to relax and not think so much at his loss. Kite ignores it however and rather knocks-off some metal barrels which land very close to Eight. He tells him that the only solution in winning, is to commit to Synchrom. Meanwhile at Bull Burger, Zyro, Mal, Shinobu and Ren sit down as Mal examines Kite's Guardian Leviathan through her laptop. They all debate on what went wrong with Kite's failure to win as they suddenly get an idea. Needing to help a friend in need, they each play a game of Rock, Paper, Scissors to battle one another where the losing player of Rock, Paper, Scissors picks a team-mate where they engage in a one-sided Tag-team battle against the other player. Zyro wins with scissors while Shinobu loses. He picks Ren as his partner, with Zyro taking this as a challenge for himself. They later meet at the Bey Park, where each of them begin their battle. Shinobu and Ren with their Ninja Salamander and Thief Phoenix respectively facing-off with Zyro's Samurai Ifrit. After they "Let It Rip!" Ifrit has to prove its strength when Salamander and Phoenix keep hitting and assault Ifrit in every move, yet Zyro still remains confident in this challenge. Elsewhere Gen walks along the sea of Metal Bey City, infuriated to discover a man littering by throwing a drinking beverage into the sea. Leaping out in his "Sea Monster" form, enraged, he scares off the man and the woman alongside him. He then cleared all the seaweed he collected in the ocean, remaining at how people are careless of littering and preserving places such as coastlines. Yet he still retains his hope with his Pirate Kraken who alongside it, shall do anything they can to preserve these types of places. Though he gains an unexpected visit from Takanosuke who is searching for Sakyo yet overhears Gen showing-off his Bey. Wanting to put Gen's money where his mouth was, he challenges Gen to battle. Gen only agrees when he is intimidated by Takanosuke's confidence in his Archer Griffin. Soon enough they already entered the stage of battle, still debating on who's Bey is better. Takanosuke, thinking back to Sakyo, seemingly becomes inspired by him in order to defeat Gen. He still remains confident as the beast of his Griffin appears and throws off Kraken into the sea; ruining once again of Gen's strategy to use Stamina whilst shocking him as he jumps in the water. Satisfied of his win, it soon stops when Kite and Eight find him. Though impressed by Takanosuke's victory, Eight states that now he would like to battle Takanosuke, himself just to measure how much power Griffin actually holds after Kite's fierce training with Leviathan, which may end up in a little surprise for Takanosuke.

After Gen's defeat and plumage into the waters of Metal Bey City, Takanosuke gets a visit from the Unabara brothers. Impressed by his battle, Eight offers Takanosuke the chance for another Beybattle. Takanosuke however, feels too encouraged and confident by his recent win, as he shows off his fiery aura to test the brothers' might and perception of him. Eight accepts it as they travel to the Bey Park, with Takanosuke following them. Meanwhile at Zyro, Shinobu and Ren's Bey Park battle, no true victor has been declared as Ifrit fight single-handedly against the team-up of Salamander and Phoenix. The brothers' and their challenger arrive at a different part of the Bey Park, reserved exclusively for their battle in a red Zero-G Stadium. Just as they enter however, Takanosuke stays in awe at the Bey Park, amazed and delighted by it and the chance to actually face the Unabara brothers. Little to any of them know that Sakyo spotted Takanosuke following Kite and Eight and decided to spectate it. Kite and Eight announce a Synchrom match to Takanosuke, where Kite and Eight will put together their Guardian Leviathan and Pirate Orochi respectively, to create Orochi Leviathan. Takanosuke will battle it with his Synchrom-less Archer Griffin, still believing he will claim victory and teach them a lesson. Deliberately beginning their matches, Orochi Leviathan delivers hits to the Archer Griffin, who returns the favour indeed. Continuing to pummel one another, Griffin evades by spinning around the Synchrom combo but is again met by the Orochi Leviathan. Although the heat of the battle is getting to Takanosuke with Kite and Eight merely revealing their cocky side, Takanosuke's refuses to believe in defeat with the red-hot glow of his intense aura; surprising Sakyo to an extent. The Beyblades still continue to fight each other but Kite and Eight command a Special Move, signified by the blinking of Orochi Leviathan's motifs. A large typhoon of water erupts from the Bey, with the Orochi Leviathan beast screeching in terror. The flood-like water is controlled to become linear and "push-up", thus elevating Griffin to the highest point of the Stadium. When there, the glass breaks off where the water subsequently disappears and dropping Griffin to a hard hit and defeat, at the Stadium's surface. After their win, the Unabara brothers takes their clearance to find Zyro and Co. while Takanosuke decides to follow them in order to strengthen his skills. Despite this, he gets a mysterious greeting from Sakyo who saw Takanosuke's fight, much to the latter's shock. He tells Takanosuke to follow him instead, to give him the secrets of beating Synchrom combos with Takanosuke excited as usual. Zyro still undergoes the match against Shinobu and Ren, with Zyro training to the extreme, if he will defeat Yoshio.

Zyro, Ren, Shinobu and Mal relax at Bull Burger after Zero's battle against Ren and Shinobu. Eating the favourite of his idol's, the triple-beef burger, Zyro notices how his wrist starts hurting as he indulges to eat his burger. He realized he obtained it from the difficult and endearing match. Despite this he continues to eat with a full round of more food, shocking his friends. At the Bey Park, Akuya returns with his gang, back to wreak more havoc and intimidate new Bladers as he is ready to fight. Soon enough, Yoshio arrives there as well and introduces himself. Surprised by this new Blader, Akuya challenges Yoshio to a Beybattle in a test of might, after one of his gang members commented how Yoshio greatly resembles a "living golem". The two set up their Beybattle as they stand atop the platforms opposite of one another with the Zero-G Stadium set and ready for battling. As Akuya shows off his Archer Gargole, intending to scrape Yoshio with it, Yoshio in turn brings about Bandit Golem. Interested in this Bey, they begin their match as Gargole clashes in combat with Golem. After a few hits and misses, Akuya is shocked to discover that Golem seems to be the ultimate Defense-Type, judging from its extreme ability to withstand even the most harsh attacks of the Attack-Type Gargole. Akuya feels intimated that he commands his five gang members to launch out their own beys and duke it out with Golem as they protect Gargole. Though suited for the fight, they like Gargole, are still not a single match to withstand any of Golem's solid iron wall of defense. One by one, each bey is knocked out of the Stadium until only Gargole is left, with Akuya in deep fear. A blader dashes off to the Bull Burger, announcing to everyone how Yoshio is very unbeatable, with nobody's beyblade able to stand a worthy opponent for Bandit Golem. Zyro and Co. are greatly concerned about this but decide to run off to the Bey Park so that Zyro may finally meet is goal of defeating Yoshio. As they arrive at the Bey Park, Yoshio has already been the victor of consecutive victories against numerour and numerous beys, with Yoshio the reigning champion. But just before Zyro can challenge Yoshio, the latter lets out a final move where Golem kicks Gargole out of the Stadium for the instant win. Akuya sprints to his Beyblade, feeling very sorrow and saddened by his loss that he retreats with his gang. Zyro cannot take any more of this as he challenges Yoshio to a Beybattle, as of which the latter accepts. Launching their Beyblades in ultimate might, Yoshio seems to find out Zyro is a worthy opponent for him, As Zyro's Samurai Ifrit is able to spin so fast that is can dodge Golem's blocks and provide an added challenge. Yoshio seems shocked but is still in it to win it as the ultimate battle between the Blader of Fire and the Iron Wall of Golem commence.

In the continuation of Zyro's battle with Yoshio to avenge Kite, Samurai Ifrit is delivering multiple hits and smashes at the seemingly unstoppable Bandit Golem. The battle's intense fury is starting to heat Zero as he grows a fierce fiery aura in this epic battle against Yoshio. Yet after some other attacks onto Golem, Zyro becomes intensified in the battle for him to unleash his fury. Zyro uses his special move, Burning Uppercut, yelling out and using all of its known power. Ifrit gives multiple barrages to Golem which results in the latter being thrown back, hitting the surface and losing; ultimately giving Zyro the win he needed. As Zyro rejoices in his proudful yet difficult challenge, Yoshio is just totally shocked and moans to the loss of his formerly unbeatable Bey. Out of nowhere however, a speeding Beyblade infiltrates the Zero-G Stadium and dashes right into Golem, sending it flying to the outer-reaches of the BeyStadium with Yoshio in total distraught. Zyro and Co. are caught off guard as well when they discover the mysterious Bey's owner, Kira Hayama. After introducing himself to everyone, he introduces his bey, Berserker Behemoth. Kira has come for a Bey battle and does not plan on leaving until he is given one; with Shinobu stepping up to take his challenge. Accepting this, as Shinobu is the "Invincible Salamander" after-all, they get into battle position and launch their Beys. While Behemoth faces-off with Salamander, Mal checks on her laptop for an inside-look at Berserker Behemoth; only to show her and the rest with extraordinary results. With all of these newly discovered parts, they find Kira's Bey to wield SR200: a Stamina Ring built to defend and conserve Stamina and BWD: a larger version of Wide Defense constructed to improve the overall-Stamina. While Behemoth seems a worthy opponent for Salamander, Shinobu still does not give up as he commands his Bey to deliver not only hits to the Chrome Wheel, but the Stamina Ring as well. All is said and done when Shinobu intends to finish it with his special move, Phantom Fire Shot. Kira just shows another trick up his sleeve by activating a strange eye-piece on his right eye to see through all of Ninja Salamander's disguises and attack the real one essentially defeating it and taking a win. Shinobu is pummeled back in the air from an explosion with his team coming to his aid, while Yoshio is approached by Kira. He then challenges Zyro to a Synchrom battle.

In the rocky location, Zyro practices by destroying the rocks with Salamander Ifrit. All of a sudden, Kite comes and angrily "attacks" Zyro. Eight explains that it is because Zyro managed to beat Yoshio before he could. When Kite finds out about the Sychrom battle, he decides that he should be the one to battle in it. Benkei settles their argument by saying that they should battle at BeyPark. And so they do, and Zyro emerges victorious. In the WBBA headquarters, Kira has hacked into the computer and chats with Tsubasa.

Thrown back and collapsing after his recent defeat at the hands of Kira, Zyro moans his loss. Disregarding this, Kira discusses matters about the WBBA and suggests that they head back to their home for something, "special" to happen. Retreating to the WBBA headquarters, Zyro and Co. are met by Tsubasa and Amano whom, announce a revival of an original and popular tournament approximately seven years ago; Neo Battle Bladers. Announcing the rules and regulations of the tournament, it focuses on tag-team battles in a similar manner to the World Beyblade Championship. Taking this into account, they are set to focus on the aspects of Synchrom with tag-teams of Bladers using their Beys in Synchrom to win. Greatly anticipating and overjoyed, Mal imagines the Synchrom teams that she would love to see in Neo Battle Bladers. With teams compromised as Zyro and Kite, Kira and Yoshio, Sakyo and Taknosuke, and Shinobu and Ren. Despite getting ahead of herself, the team are subsequently met with an unexpected and mysterious video chat. Speaking in a deep voice, this mysterious person talks about the recently discovered Neo Battle Bladers tournament, much to his joy. While the gang are just puzzled at who this mysterious man could be; they face nostalgia when the man announces his name as Argo Gracy. With Mal subsequently doing an internet check, she shockingly discovers him as a former-member of Team Garcia, the former Brazilian team of the World Beyblade Championships held about seven years ago, before the reign of Nemesis. Now older and more intelligent, the Garcias head the recently founded company, "DNA", quite similar to the HD Academy that also took place during the previous championship. With a focus on Blader strength with advanced and superior Bladers, they announce how they dispatched Yoshio and Kira to foreshadow Neo Battle Bladers. Kira's hacking of the WBBA thus forced them to comprehend and hold the tournament, with no other option left for them. While keeping some things vague and obscure, they reveal how Kira is on to something with her Beyblade but the rest will be revealed in due time. They subsequently end the video call. Later on, the WBBA goes on to announce Neo Battle Blader nationwide and all-over Japan, with Blader Gai giving off the bits and details of it. Zyro and Shinobu even enter the Bey Park do some training before the new tournament begins as of which, they shall be opposing one-another, sometime into the tournament. As the Garcias continue to discuss the progress of Neo Battle Bladers, Madoka worries over what DNA has to bring over to the world of Beyblade. Tsubasa does not worry, assuring Madoka that Zyro's undemanding and endeavor aspiration to meet Gingka will save them, even if it means to face DNA.

As the battles to enter in Neo Battle Bladers rages on, Zyro is on a roll with consecutive wins and victories as he leads into victory. Despite this, he just obtained an unwelcome visit from Sakyo and Takanosuke, the former of which would like a battle with Zyro to enter in Neo Battle Bladers. Remembering their past fight and the fury Ronin Dragoon held, Zyro accepts as he and Sakyo prepare for a fight. Unexpectedly yet again, a new Blader barges into the tournament to confront Zyro, himself. Known as Spike Bourne, Spike challenges Zyro for a battle in Neo Battle Bladers, causing Zyro to be distracted and forget his planned rematch with Sakyo. Holding his beyblade, Thief Girago, he pits it against Zyro's Samurai Ifrit and with it, the sound goes off to signal their battle. Takanosuke and Mal watch from the sidelines, as Mal seems concerned about Spike and the beyblade this Blader possesses. Meanwhile, Kira and Yoshio exchange a talk with the Unabara brothers, conversating about the so-called Leviathan who was the top in the lineage of Defense-Types. Still infuriated with the outcome and the fact he never collected a rematch, Kite furiously challenges Yoshio to a rematch to finally decide the better defender: Golem or Leviathan. While Yoshio accepts, his master Kira, gets a battle with Eight as they all compete for a position in Neo Battle Bladers. As Yoshio and Kite walk to a BeyStadium to commence their battle, five gang members surround Yoshio, each arming their Beyblades as him while a voice commands them. Revealed as Akuya, he wishes to pit Yoshio in a six-way battle of him against Akuya and his teammates. While not intimated at all, he gladly accepts as he launches out Bandit Golem and the others do the same. Ultimately, the five beys trap Golem just long enough for Gargole to come in and fight. Back at Zyro's battle with Spike, the beys clash in an epic battle as the Blader of Fire must find a way to defeat this also Fire-elemental Beyblade. Using the WA130HF combo, Thief Girago clashes and smacks Ifrit with multiple slashes while Samurai Ifrit does the same to counter-attack. Mal uses her computer to research Thief Girago, fearing the outcome and hoping Zyro wins, with Takanosuke feels the same. The two Bladers are fired up as Zyro must win, or else he loses a position in Neo Battle Bladers...

In Neo Battle Bladers, the battles become fiercer and more difficult as every competitor moves on to a new opponent. In Kite's case, he shows nor restraint when he consistently knocks-out the beys of Akuya's gang. His younger brother, Eight, however shows decent signs of his battle with the Dragon Killer, Kira. Although doing his best to survive every hit, Kira's Berserker Behemoth delivers a barrage of hits to Eight's Pirate Orochi who Eight is counting on to survive the round. In Zyro's battles with Spike, he is undergoing the heat of the moment. Every moment that Spike hits the air in fury and craze, his Thief Girago launches an attack onto Zyro's Samurai Ifrit. Zero shows signs of losing it because he knows he must think fast or lose the fight. With a scorching aura of flames, the Blader of Fire commences his special move, Burning Uppercut. Samurai Ifrit's beast appears and it smashes Girago with his blazing katana. Girago undergoes a ricochet out of the Stadium, losing. Although Zyro is quite pleased with himself with the outcome, Spike is rather, acceptante of it as he calls on to his fellow DNA member, Genjūrō. Announcing his defeat and his offer to challenge Zyro, Genjūrō accepts as he gets on stage for the fight. He introduces himself to Zyro along with his goal of being a member of DNA, intimating Zyro. While Zyro decides to begin this fight, Sakyo confronts him and tells Zyro that he instead, will fight Genjūrō. Sakyo and Genjūrō "Let It Rip!" as the Dark Knight faces off with the Black Tortoise. As The Beyblades first begin to clash into combat, Genjūrō commands a special move which signals Bandid Genbu's beast to appear. Surprised by this, Sakyo does the same when Ronin Dragoon's comes in as well. Deciding he has enough of how it already is, he commands Dragoon to attack; which ultimately destroys Genbu with amazing ease of the Dragon Emperor himself. Not surprised by his victory, he tells Zyro that he will be looking forward to battling with him and subsequently leaves to pursue other battles in the tournament. The day starts to turn darker as it becomes evening, just in time for the climax of Akuya and Eight's matches. With his Archer Gargole against Yoshio's Bandit Golem, Yoshio goes in for the finishing blow with a final direct attack that defeats Gargole and Akuya for the win. Pirates Orochi tries to stand still but cannot for Behemoth keeps "biting away" at the bey. All is said and done once Kira uses Behemoth's special move, Iron Frail, when it delivers one of the most powerful hits of Beyblade, with Kira winning the fight. Eight collapses out of his reaction to the match where Kite comes in to comfort him. Though Eight feels weak that he cannot fight anymore, he tells Kite to win the match for both of them, so that he can feel the glory of winning that he could not in his fateful match. With Kite very saddened by his loss, he assures him that he will confront Kira and win as a condolence for the fight. Later one, the rest of the contenders rage on in the epic path to Neo Battle Bladers. Soon enough, the stages becomes set as Blader Gai is ready to announce the final eight contenders of Neo Battle Bladers. The announces are: Kite, Shinobu, Sakyo, Zero, Kira, Yoshio, Takanosuke, and lastly, the unknown Blader, "Captain Arrow".

Coming up on stage are none other than the Top Eight, the top eight competitors of the tournament full of hype that is, Neo Battle Bladers. With Zyro, Shinobu, Kite, Sakyo, Yoshio, Kira, Takanosuke and Captain Arrow making it front-and-centre to the audience's applause. Blader Gai announces these eight Bladers, expressing the complete strength and endeavors these persons had to make in order to make their way to the best. The mass audience cheers in delight and enthusiasm, as Mal, Madoka, and Benkei watch from the sidelines as they cheer on Zyro and Shinobu. After the applaud and mood starts to calm down, Gai goes on to announce the first battle of the Best Eight, beginning with the Invincible Salamander, Shinobu against the golem-wielding, Yoshio. Each Blader makes their way to the Zero-G platforms, rising up to Zero-G Stadium and ready to fight face-to-face. Though not surprised of his opponent, Yoshio shows no fear in his current battle while Shinobu feels the same. Getting into launching stance, they Let It Rip! and the battle begins. Shinobi Saramanda facing off with Bandit Golem. The Beyblades first reach contact in a single smack that ricochets both of them. Knowing no fear, the Invincible Salamander quickly offers some hits and smashes to the defendable Golem, as the latter tries to keep up with every hit that comes in. Shinobu decides to follow this up with his special move, creating multiple copies of Ninja Salamander to in an attempt to fool Yoshio. Yoshio commands Bandit Golem to go blow away all of the Salamander copies. Yoshio believes he has won when Salamander seems to be circling the stadium creating more and more copies trapping Golem. Finally Shinobu calls a new special move, Blazing Ring Shot, creating a burning ring around Golem that closes in and hits Golem into the air giving Shinobu a win by stadium out. Blader Gai subsequently proceeds to announce the follow-up with Kite against the Dragon-Killer, Kira. Intrigued by his opponent, Kite takes his step to the platforms but is halted by his little sibling, Eight. Eight reminds his brother to desperately win the fight for both of them, counting on him to redeem his own loss against Kira. Accepting this with every extent, as Kite finally reaches the Stadium he is met with a surprise when Eight throws his Pirate Chrome Wheel for Kite to catch. He then gets a sense that Eight wants him to practice Synchrom and defeat Kira who is handed the Golem Chrome Wheel by his partner-in-crime, Yoshio for vengeance. The two fierceful Bladers load their Chrome Wheels and Let It Rip! with Kite's Orochi Leviathan fighting edge-on with Kira's Golem Behemoth. Needing to his prove his worth, Kite uses defensive motives against Golem Behemoth's Stamaina one. With two Chrome Wheels for a Synchrom battle, Golem Behemoth heads in for some right and left hooks to Orochi Leviathan as they face off, wheel-to-wheel. Even more smacks, dashes and bursts of attacks follow suit with an explosion to come in for every damage that a Bey takes. Upon the recklessness of he and his opponent when it comes to foul play, Kite is ready to perform a special move in response to Kira's special move, Iron Flail. With Behemoth's beast changing yet again to an even more gruesome and burly beast against Orochi Leviathan. Deciding the time is right, he has Orochi Leviathan create a tornado that soon enough becomes infused with water to summon forth, a tropical cyclone. This maelstrom of a hurricane comes into the centre of the Beys as both Kira and Kite use their maximum potential to have Golem Behemoth and Orochi Leviathan meet dead-on for the outcome. The cyclone causes an immense and explosive explosion on impact that deals incredible damage dealt to the Zero-G Stadium and filling the audience with immerse fear. In the end however, Orochi Leviathan was unfortunately thrown into a wall and stuck there, whilst Golem Behemoth remains in complete spin rotation. Shocked by his loss like how Yoshio was, Kite screams in denial and agony at how this battle could have been, especially failing to redeem Eight. Kira is casual about it as always and leaves when Blader Gai announces Kira as the victorious Blader. Team Garcias of DNA are meanwhile seen in a live coverage of Neo Battle Bladers, happy to see everything is continuing to go as planned, never doubting Kira for one second especially when Yoshio failed. Back at Neo Battle Bladers though, Blader Gai announces the next match consisting of Sakyo against the mysterious masquerade-helming, Captain Arrow. Both stand onto their Zero-G platforms and await their fight...

In the second part of the quarter-finals comes the awaited match between Sakyo Kuroyami and Captain Arrow. While both Bladers move to their respective Zero-G Stadium platforms, Captain Arrow introduces himself. With his own Beyblade, Archer Wyvern, Arrow intends to easily win this battle after he reveals at how he is also a DNA Blader. This startles Tsubasa, Madoka and Benkei who are affiliated with the WBBA, the enemies of DNA. Knowing that they need Sakyo to defeat the new DNA representative, both Bladers "Let It Rip!" and launch their Beyblades. Ronin Dragoon is already receiving barrage attacks by Archer Wyvern, while Sakyo remains as calm as ever. More smashes originate here and there that it seems that Arrow has already figured out the path to victory. This is evident when he already unleashes his special move, "Arrow Tornado". An immediate torando of wind bursts out and throws Dragoon away, despite Benkei's comments that Kyoya had made better tornados in his days. Sakyo however reveals that he never really was trying all along and immiedately his focus shifts to turning the tables. Commanding Dragoon to recover from the special move, he has it dash all towards Archer Wyvern. With the beast of Dragoon coming together and tackle the tornado. Subsequently Dark Knight Dragoon goes under Archer Wyvern and flips the latter to have it thrown to the other side of the Stadium. A small hole is created as a result and falls through it to give Sakyo and Dragoon the win. Blader Gai announces Sakyo's victory alongside the audience cheering as well. Although Tsubasa, Madoka, and Benkei are quite relieved that another DNA Blader has been taken down from the tournament, Selen of DNA is quite angered by the result. Ian shares his concerns as well yet Argo remains very a cosmpoloite, knowing that everything shall come together in due time. Blader Gai then announces the last match of the quarter-finals that will then culminate into the "Best 4". The battle will be compromised as Zyro Kurogane versus Takanosuke Shishiya. Zyro and Takanosuke are quite happy that they will be facing each other, both who have been in the best of training to fight. The launch of their Beyblades comes in as Samurai Ifrit faces against Archer Gryph. Ifrit and Griffin share their first signs of contact that already give off harsh recoil. They do not despair and are still keeping their focus on the Beyblades when Archer Griffin barrages Samurai Ifrit, similar to Sakyo and Arrow's fight. Zyro obtains scruples as a result as Ifrit just sits there helplessly being ravaged by the griffon. With his dogged attempt to meet his idol in the form of Gingka Hagane, Zyro will not stand down by any means. To keep with this he uses his special move, Burning Uppercut. Ifrit bursts out simulatenously when Samurai Ifrit emits a blazing aura. Takanosuke is distraught when Zyro has his Beyblade smack Archer Griffin to the other side of the Zero-G Stadium. Takanosuke, undergoing a distraught that leads him to believe that he has run out of luck. Feeling week, uneasy and helpless, Takanosuke seeks retribution when his cries call out on getting Griffin to stand together. His cries become the fuel for his Beyblade when it relives itself from Ifrit's special move and heads back into the battlefield. Everyone, Zyro, including the audience were surprised by how quick Takanosuke recovered from that potential move that would have costed him the win. Now that both opponents are more serious than ever, Samurai Ifrit and Archer Griffin clash in an epic battle charged by their owner's determination. Both acknowledge only one can win, both fight to their full potential and both are beginning to lose it. The Bladers shout out for more cries and the calling out of their Bey's names. Takanosuke powers it even further when he launches a special move, Delta Slash, that he obtained from his fierce training with his companion, Sakyo. Creating a violet triangle, he summons the beast of Archer Griffin as it fights with Samurai Ifrit. Zyro tries to counter this by using Burning Uppercut again, where Ifrit and Griffin go at it in one last clash. Just as this happens, an immediate explosion of light comes out and when the mist clears, Samurai Ifrit is left in spin while Archer Griffin had succumb to an out-spin. Everyone in Neo Battle Bladers is shocked at these results as Blader Gai announces how Zyro has made it to the semi-finals and is officially, part of the Best 4. While Zyro cheers in victory for his completion of the fight, Takanosuke is just irritated at himself for failing to impress Sakyo. Sakyo is just calm as he acknowledges the results with the climax of Neo Battle Bladers is soon to come...

With the transition from the quarter-finals to the semi-finals, Blader Gai announces the four Bladers left in Neo Battle Bladers. Consisting of Shinobu Hiryūin, Kira Hayama, Sakyo Kuroyami, and Zyro Kurogane. Subsequently, he details the two battles that will compromise the semi-finals that will later lead to the finals and declare the winner of the tournament. The two battles will consist of Zyro vs. Sakyo with the second as Shinobu vs. Kira. As the audience is loud in its cheering of its competitors, Tsubasa and Madoka are still concerned with DNA. Mal even shows them footage of some of the semi-finals battles via her laptop, trying to comfort them in their DNA scruples. As the evening shifts to nighttime, Shinobu has come to Bey Park along with some friends in order to undergo extensive training prior to his fight with Kira. At first he is fighting Ren as her Thief Phoenix battles Ninja Salamander. Shinobu is able to quickly unleash multiples of Salamander and follow it up with a special move that he first used when defeating Yoshio in the quarter-finals. The Salamanders circled and trapped Phoenix as each Salamander transformed into a ring of fire that was able to blow Phoenix out of the BeyStadium and much to her dismay. Meanwhile, Zyro decides to partake some training for himself elsewhere outside of Metal Bey City. Bringing Benkei along, Zyro returns to the same area where he first had his battle with Sakyo. He had Benkei bring a wrecking ball crane with him, that is to be used for Zyro to counter and defeat. Although Benkei is very skeptical of this, not wanting to endanger Zyro's life or put any hurt on him, Zyro commands Benkei to go through with it, to which the former does, despite his dismay. As Zyro launches out Samurai Ifrit into the ginormous hole mimicking a Stadium, Benkei controls the wrecking ball to circle the hole at its edge. When Ifrit collides with the wrecking ball, it is thrown back immediately which also throws its owner back as well. Zyro does not care and stands up once more to launch Ifrit at the wrecking ball, this time intending to hold it back. While Ifrit does manage to hold the wrecking ball for a short period, it cannot hold much longer as it throws Ifrit back again. With every collision and failure that causes Zyro to be hardly thrown to the ground in hurt, Zyro comes back for another chance at trial-and-error to defeat the wrecking ball. Back at the Bey Park, Kite tells Ren to step aside and give himself a chance at defeating Shinobu. Raised by the platform to the Zero-G Stadium, Kite launches Guardian Leviathan to test Salamander's offensive skills. When the Beys are launched, they immediately deliver the opponent with a barrage of hits and smashes. Kite gives a short speech to Shinobu, telling him that he must defeat Kira in Neo Battle Bladers and advance to the finals at all costs. Knowing how powerful Kira truly is by experience, Kite orders Shinobu to do what he must do and defeat Kira Hayama. Shinobu, moved by the words of his friend, accepts this and acknowledges what it will mean to defeat Kira. Elsewhere at the DNA headquarters, Yoshio is the middle of a battle with Kira. Commanding his Bandit Golem to deliver Berserker Behemoth with one smash, as Golem does this it is suddenly ricocheted out of the BeyStadium with no movement by Behemoth. Yoshio, saddened by his lost, gives Genjūrō a turn. As Kira is as calm in his battles, Genjūrō launches Bandit Genbu to collide with Behemoth but Genjūrō obtains the same result that Yoshio did. Surprised by this, he then gives a turn to Spike and his Thief Zirago. Intending to barrage Behemoth with a marathon of clashes, Spike launches Girago but also faces the same result. Shocked by this, he lets Captain Arrow have a chance at combating Behemoth. Launching out Archer Wyvern, Arrow immediately unleashes a tornado that stands atop of Wyvern, while simultaneously using Tornado Attack to attack Behemoth. Flattered by Arrow's dogged practice, Kira chuckles when Berserker Behemoth offers no movement at all and still manages to throw back the opposing Beyblade, in the form of Wyvern. Shocked and feeling what his comrades have, Ian commands the DNA Bladers, expect Yoshio and Kira to leave, and they gladly do so. Kira then exits the Zero-G Stadium to hold his Berserker Behemoth and have a short reminiscing with it. He remember his three, other opponent in the semi-finals, Shinobu, Sakyo and Zyro. Each using the Blazing Ring Shot that defeated Yoshio, an easy attack that defeated Arrow and the Burning Uppercut that defeated Takanosuke, respectively. A little concerned for how powerful the others are, Merci interrupts Kira's time to himself to announce that the "dark energy" collected by Behemoth is now complete and there is no need to use it, anymore. Surprised by this, Kira drops his former Beyblade to the floor, leaving Berserker Behemoth. Yoshio approaches Kira as he watched what Kira has done, asking is he is sure to leave Behemoth and Kira accepts this as the two walk to the soon-to-commence Neo Battle Bladers. Selen and Argo even exchange a short discussion about Berserker Behemoth, as although Selen believed Kira should have kept Behemoth, Argo dismisses it because Kira will have obtained a "new Beyblade" even more powerful than the one before and that it will most likely be the most powerful Beyblade that the world have ever known. Finally, the semi-finalists of Neo Battle Bladers have all arrived and are now ready to proceed in their battles. With the audience of the whole tournament cheering loudly in delight, Gai announces that Zyro and Sakyo shall battle first. Subsequently, Zyro and Sakyo enter the Zero-G platforms and make way for their Zero-G battle. Zyro and Sakyo are about to partake in their second battle, ever as Zyro is very dogged to defeat Sakyo following his intensive training, while Sakyo plans to do the same.

At the signal of "3... 2... 1... Let It Rip!", Zyro Kurogane and Sakyo Kuroyami launch out their Beyblades to commence their semi-final match. As soon as Samurai Ifrit and Ronin Dragoon land in the Zero-G Stadium, Blader Gai notices how the two Beys are already delivering some hits. A marathon of barrages are followed as Ifrit knocks away Dragoon with a powerful blow but Dragoon returns to deliver the same exact hit that befalls upon Ifrit. Zero intends to fight to his fiercest in this battle, commanding Ifrit to barrage-smash Dragoon, whilst Sakyo copies this command. Ifrit and Dragooon are locked in combat, presenting extraordinary smashes and smacks to each other in this battle. Spectating from the sidelines, Takanosuke cheers on Sakyo while Kite, Eight, Ren, and Mal do the same for Zyro, instead. The battle becomes more exciting with each second that passes when Sakyo brings an interesting take to the battle. Ronin Dragoon speeds to the top of the Stadium and then comes running down to hit Samurai Ifrit, sending it flying from the Stadium. The crowd is surprised by this until Zyro manages to have his Ifrit comes crashing down in an enormous impact, but safe from a possible knock-out. This surprises Sakyo as well, and Zyro decides to follow this up with his special move, Burning Uppercut. Harboring a blazing presence, Samurai Ifrit spins at high speeds to collide with Dragoon. When this collision occurs, a massive explosion escapes and affects the whole arena; with massively powerful winds that follow suit. Despite this, Sakyo is able to have Dragoon survive the assault. While the Beys begin barraging each other once more, vortexes of winds follow through with every collision, as announced by Blader Gai. After a few more attacks, Zyro plans to gain impending speed for Ifrit and allows Ifrit to circle the Stadium to do so. To counter Zyro's attempt, Sakyo has Dragoon circle the Stadium but spins in a path that is greater than that of Ifrit's. With the Right-Spin Ifrit gaining speed, the Left-Spin Dragoon has foiled its plan as Dragoon begins interfering with Ifrit's circle-spin with hits, thus disrupting it and keeping it off of balance. As a result, the two forces of the two Beys' speeding has caused the Zero-G Stadium to stay flat and remove the constant swaying, something noticed by Gai. While the two Beyblades battle it out, Benkei, Tsubasa, and Madoka spectate. Madoka is given fears of the battle, seeing as how Sakyo is quite powerful and that Zyro just may not win this fight. Tsubasa however, quickly defeats her doubts when he reminds her that Zyro's hot-blooded personality and burning passion to meet Gingka Hagane will save them. Zyro is a very powerful Blader, Sakyo is as well but Tsubasa believes that Zyro still has a chance to claim victory in this battle, some evidence supported by how Zyro has yet to have obtained a loss in Neo Battle Bladers. As Zyro and Sakyo duke it out in the BeyStadium, very reminiscent to the match Gingka and Ryuga had seven years ago in the same place at the same time in the original Battle Bladers. With Tsubasa's condolences, Madoka is relieved to have a renewed hope in Zyro. Still watching the battle, Kite, Eight, Ren, and Mal continue to express their cheers for Zyro. With every Blader giving the most confident cheers to their friend, Zyro is able to have heard them and takes some time to shift his focus from the current battle, to his friends. Surprised, Zyro is reminded by how his friends are there and are cheering for him to win the fight. Moved by this, Zyro takes some moments to himself to remember the bonds he has had with his friends. From meeting Shinobu in their first battle, to the Synchrom battle of Eight and Kite and even the training to defeat Yoshio with Shinobu and Ren. Zyro remembers how glad he is to have his friends with him and still there to cheer him in his battle, which greatly moved Zyro. Upon this, Zyro shares a short talk with his opponent. He tells Sakyo that the bonds that he holds with his friends is keeping him from giving up, something that he never fails to achieve. All of these bonds that are held with this friendships allows him to never hold back and go past his limit to fight in even the most dreadful of fights. He tells Sakyo that he has made a mistake to not have anyone with him, instead only thinking that he could fight without the use of friends and that he shows no need for them. Putting the spotlight on Takanosuke, Zyro tells Sakyo that his true friend is Takanosuke, a person who cares about Sakyo in the same way he should to Takanosuke. All along, Sakyo has just had Takanosuke as nothing more than a "Synchrom partner", just an aid to help in his training and victories. Zyro tells Sakyo that he should be grateful for having a confidant in the form of Takanosuke and that the bond with him is the only strength that he may use to fight in this battle. While Sakyo seems moved by Zyro's words, Zyro decides to end this battle with a bang when he uses Burning Uppercut again. Aiming to defeat finally defeat Sakyo after their previous battle, Samurai Ifrit is headed towards Ronin Dragoon. Despite this, Sakyo shows an aura of a red-like darkness that escapes his eyes to have a raging power of darkness burst out and for use with Dragoon to enslave the Samurai Ifrit. With a burst of ultimate power held by Sakyo, and the hot-blazing action of Zyro, Ronin Dragoon and Samurai Ifrit come close to their last collision. Immediately, a powerful explosion is let out of the BeyStadium that goes on to create extremely, high wind patterns that force the audience and spectators to cover themselves and hold on from the blow. With giant clouds of dust that are created in response to the explosion, the mist begins to clear to show a shocking scenario. The giant blow held by Ifrit and Dragooon caused the Zero-G Stadium to explode within itself, with the Zero-G Stadium destroyed to giant pieces. The remains are just shattered markings of glass that have fallen to the hard ground, and reveals a Samurai Ifrit that remains in spin. Shocking everybody, including Sakyo; he is confused as to the whereabouts of his Beyblade, but he gets his answer when he finds Ronin Dragoon sent out of the Stadium to have become stuck to placing on a wall but to eventually come crashing down on the BeyStadium floor; Ronin Dragoon is now out-of-spin and has lost the battle with Samurai Ifrit. Gai excitedly announces the outcome of the match, with Zyro and Samurai Ifrit as the winner of the first match of the semi-finals in Neo Battle Bladers, which fortunately for Zyro, allows him to advance to the last round of Neo Battle Bladers: the finals. While Zero is happily excited by his victory, having the audience and his friends cheering for him, with the latter glad for the outcome, Sakyo is quite the opposite. Depressed about his loss, Sakyo comes down from the Zero-G platform and begins exiting it. Takanosuke, sad about Sakyo's loss, rushes out of the audience and dashes to Sakyo. There, Sakyo notices Takanosuke with him while Takanosuke asks if Sakyo is alright. Sakyo, tells Takanosuke that he does not care any much more for the battle but was able to discover something greater, and that was the realization that he had a friend, Takanosuke. Takanosuke is moved by Sakyo's words and is happy to see that Sakyo knows who his true friend is. Now treating him more than just a Synchrom partner, Sakyo now asks rather than commands Takanosuke to come with him, asking him to follow him to commit to some other training, but as friends. Happy at this, Takanosuke eagerly follows Sakyo to their next destination, albeit that Sakyo has left without Ronin Dragoon. Zyro on the other hand, is shouting out at Shinobu, stating that he has won his match and it is not time for Shinobu to win his. Accepting his friend's words, Shinobu promises to battle at his best in his fight with Kira Hayama, in the second and last part of the semi-finals of Neo Battle Bladers.

Blader Gai gives a recap of the recent match between Zyro and Sakyo, the resulting of this first match of the semi-finals to ultimately have Zyro advance to the finals as the second and last match of the semi-finals is about to commence. As this happens, Team Garcia are spectating the soon-to-be match as their motives and expectations for Kira are soon, underway. Shinobu will be pitted against Kira in order to determine who shall advance to the finals and battle Zero to be crowned the champion of Neo Battle Bladers and essentially, the No. 1 Blader in Japan. As this occurs, the audience remains cheering in excitement as the two opponents walk to the Zero-G Stadium with Shinobu's friends cheering him on with confidence. Entering the platforms, they are raised up to prepare for their match as immediately, Shinobu announces to Kira how he has conducted intense training and has been prepared to defeat Berserker Behemoth. Kira however, merely smirks and scoffs at this when he tells Shinobu that he had no need to wield Behemoth anymore, throwing it away in search of something "more". As a solution, Kira was able to receive what he was aspiring for in the form of Gladiator Bahamoote. Alarming everyone in an instant including Team Garcia, each remains in shock and distraught by this unexpected debut of a new Beyblade. Kira further announces that his new Beyblade is something not to be underestimated and that Shinobu's plan to counter Behemoth's moves has now failed; forcing Shinobu to cope with the advent of a new Bey. Shinobu, irritated by this, starts of "3... 2... 1... Let It Rip!" as he and Kira launch their Beyblades for battle. Ninja Salamander lands in the arena to combat Bahamoote yet in an instant, Bahamoote shows full-throttle already when it brings Salamander to leap off the Stadium floor. Surprised, Shinobu commands Salamander to return safely but only to face the same attack and is thrown out into the air. Quite irritated and surprised, Shinobu tries to find a way to counter this and succeeds when he uses Salamander to offer Bahamoote a hit and then vanish in thin air to appear again and so forth. Relying on the stealth and security of the shinobi, Shinobu shows continuous repeats in his strategy, which is something that merely amuses Kira. While Salamander is delivering hits and disappearances to its opponent, Mal precisely studies these two Beyblades, seeing the wholesome power that Bahamoote has the potential to unlock. Mal is quite afraid for Shinobu, the new Bey challenges her data to make it impossible in order to deduce what the outcome would be like. Kite, Eight and Ren are as well and continue watching their friend in combat. Kira, deciding that he has had enough to witness the barrages of hits Salamander is delivering, counters it by using the early strategy of smacking Salamander with enough force to be escalated into the air. Shocked, Shinobu already comprehends that if he leaves this to continue any further, he will not be able to win. Taking a stance with his force, Shinobu commands Salamander to stand its ground and use his special move, Blazing Ring Shot. Despite this, Bahamoote is shown to be at the center of the BeyStadium in perfect spin as the mist clear, something that alarms Shinobu. Kira tells Shinobu that the reason why Bahamoote did not receive a Stadium-Out was because of its spin track SP230, thus destroying yet another one of Shinobu's strategies. In quick response, Kira decides to show Shinobu the true power that Bahamoote holds when the Stadium starts shaking a bid more rapid than usual. Sounds of earthquakes are nearby, rumbling in enormous roars as Gladiator Bahamoote instantly assaults Ninja Salamander. Montages of hard-hitting smacks bring Salamander to great lengths as various pieces of metal are torn off by Bahamoote. Shinobu just cries in fear as he constantly yells "Salamander!", but is helpless when his own Beyblade is undergoing destruction by Gladiator Bahamoote. Hit after hit, Salamander is helpless and has no such way of survival when Bahamoote returns to deliver another powerful, ballistic punch that rips even more bits and chips of metal off of Salamander. Filled with enough fear, Shinobu decides that he has witnessed enough and plans to reenact Zyro's strategy of defeating Sakyo; the bonds that are shared between friends. Immediately, the Scorching Salamander returns from a potential KO to dive back into the BeyStadium and unleash another attack that hopefully, shall defeat Bahamoote once and for all. Trails of blazes follow suit into the Bahamoote but Kira cancels this out as Gladiator Bahamoote stands out to reveal who is the true titan. Powerful, gushes of high, intensive winds follow through as they cancel out every flame when simultaneous rumbling roars of quakes are built upon when pieces of rocks come flying out of the ground. The two platforms that the Bladers are standing on becomes shaking intensively, showing complete potential of what Kira is about to unleash next. Without hesitation, Kira in an instant, brings a powerful fist of a darkness-isnpired aura that pounds on the outcome of the battle when the Bahamoote stands front-and-centre to unleah its special move, Gladiator Demolition. As the mist clears, all is seen but a terrible sight. The Zero-G Stadium, carefully created and built from the ground-up to withstand Zero-G battles is nothing but broken pieces of metal that are shattered on the ground; very reminiscent of Zyro and Sakyo's fight. An almighty Gladiator Bahamoote is still left in perfect spin-rotation, even after the destruction that it unleashed. Ninja Salamander has been severely damaged to a fine degree as well as its owner being thrown back in damage due to the fight. Zyro intended to help check if his friend was okay, but was set back due to the humongous explosion. Kira jumps off the BeyStadium to confront a seriously hurt Shinobu being confronted by his friend, Zyro. Kira tells Zyro of how he is looking forward to facing him in the finals, and warns Zyro of the power that he is about to face with Bahamoote. Zyro, just irritated, shows an angered look at Kira, forced to soon face what Shinobu had to in this battle.

Blader Gai offers another recap in the form of the recent match between Shinobu and Kira which resulted in not only wrecking the whole Zero-G Stadium, but Kira winning with his unexpected but new beyblade, Gladiator Bahamoote. This allowed Kira to advance to the finals of the tournament in which he will face off with the Blader of Fire, Zyro of whom, was able to advance upon defeating Sakyo. The match is expected to be held the next day as blimps fly throughout Metal Bey City to inform everyone of this historic event. A certain individual however, catches the glimpse of Gai as he stares in content to the announcement. Over at DNA however, Team Garcias could be less than excited when they have called for a confrontation with their most powerful member, Kira Hayama. Upon his recent victory over the Invincible Salamander, Kira happened to wield a Beyblade other than Berserker Behemoth: the Dragon-Killer and the strongest Stamina-Type in existence. When Kira used a different Bey in the form of Bahamoote, it shocked them as to concern as to why Kira was not using it and demanded a reason why. Kira, acknowledging Behemoth, scoffs and smirks at it as he explains to them that he threw Behemoth away. Kira was in search for something "more", something that offered something else than just being the best in Stamina, something that would satisfy his needs. The Garcias however are shocked to hear these words coming out from Kira, knowing that it had always been planned for Kira to use Berserker Behemoth and nothing else, and the arrival of a new Bey completely destroys their had-been plan; even Yoshio and Merci side with Kira, something that not only alarms the Garcias but commands the remaining DNA Bladers to assault Kira. Spike, Genjūrō, and Captain Arrow subsequently appear to launch Thief Girago, Bandit Genbu, and Archer Wyvern at Kira. Despite this sudden three versus one match, Kira is not shocked when he launches out Gladiator Bahamoote with almost no skill that allows this one Bey to single-handedly oppress the three. When Girago, Genbu, and Wyvern fall down and lose-spin, their three owners are thrown back in response to the collision with Team Garcias thrown back as well. Bahamoote returns to Kira's hands as Argo is very frustrated and irritated at what Kira has done to them, something that Kira does not feel remorse for as he is prepared for the climax of Neo Battle Bladers. Elsewhere, Tsubasa and Madoka study Gladiator Bahamoote's parts at the WBBA, very concerned over the power that it was holding when it wreaked havoc upon Shinobu and Ninja Salamander. They are then given a video-call by Mal via her laptop to tell them about the effects of the battle on Shinobu. After the demolition of the Zero-G Stadium, Shinobu fell off and was heavily harmed. He had to be hospitalized which he is right at the moment and things do not seem to be looking very good for him. Shocked by this, Tsubasa and Madoka share their condolences toward Shinobu as Mal does the same, she also does announce at how Zyro has left in anger to a shipyard, enraged over Kira's win over Shinobu. As well as alarming them, Tsubasa holds his dear wishes that Zyro is doing alright over it and the video-call subsequently ends. At the shipyard however, Zyro is shown in one of the most enraged moments of his life. Undergoing extensive and harsher training than the wrecking ball with Benkei, Zyro has his Samurai Ifrit to bring full-blown collisions to various metal obstructions left on the shipyard. With every blow and collision that Ifrit inflicts, Zyro only blooms with a hated anger when his temper becomes too high that the scorching aura of him rages to a very powerful point. As Zyro continues his marathon of anger, the Unabara brothers watch in contempt and their utter-most concern for their friend. They see how Zyro is pushing himself to the limits in order to defeat Kira and even the thought of Kira adds much, more anger to Zyro that he cannot control it and can only let it out with this collision-course he is driving. With much, more clashes that Ifrit undergoes, Zyro goes full-throttle on the next one when Samurai Ifrit heads toward the next objective but an outside force clashes in with the bey to bring about another collision. Quickly alarmed, Zyro seems to have calmed down his forceful rage when his Ifrit returns to his hand and he finds an individual standing at the top of a cliff. Shocked, Zyro sees the individual jump off and land swiftly on the ground, bringing the return of the great Blader, the Blader of the Season of Autumn, the No. 1 Blader in the World: Gingka Hagane. Gingka walks up to Zyro when he tells him of how he was spectating Zyro's match and discovers at how is he going up against Kira in the finals of Neo Battle Bladers, also introducing his beyblade, Samurai Pegasus. While Zyro is just speechless at the thought of actually talking to his idol, Gingka also tells him that he remembers giving Zyro his beyblade, Samurai Ifrit when he was a young boy, which also causes Zyro to remember. Gingka declares that he finds Zyro to be a very powerful opponent and that he would like to duel him so that he could receive more training prior to his upcoming match. Accepting this, Zyro brings Gingka to a hole obstruction that he made in the shipyard in response to his anger over Kira's win against Shinobu. At the count of "Let It Rip!", Zyro's Samurai Ifrit is launched to combat Gingka's Samurai Pegasus. When the beyblades make contact, immediate explosions arise in response to much of the surprise at Zyro. Knowing to give it his all, Zero has his Ifrit continue to battle when more explosions appear. As much of the mist clears, he finds that Ifrit and Pegasus have been pushed to a barrier; both showing equally powerful force which does not allow either beyblade to move past one-another. As the Beys continue fighting, with Zyro's huge force of power, the Beys bring about another explosions that this time, throws back Zyro after the collision to have him knocked out. Zyro finds himself brought to the middle of a galaxy as he is floating and meets Gingka there as well. Zyro is entranced at the moment, the beauty of it all and how he is actually battling his idol. With the red aura that Samurai Ifrit leaves out, and the blue aura that Samurai Pegasus leaves out, the two auras clash each other in combat that brings forceful blows to each other. Gingka tells Zyro that he admires Zyro's ambition to not be the No. 1 Blader in the World, but to care for his friends and do what is right and defeat Kira. With Zyro's friends, Shinobu, Mal, Eight, Kite, Ren, Takanosuke and Sakyo; all these people that Zyro has met throughout his life, he shares a bond with them that allows him to reach anything. Gingka tells Zyro that he always hated to lose, but the bonds that he shared with his own friends allows him to go past the limits and reach it. Amazed by this, the two beyblades continue the clash when Gingka announces to Zyro that he shall give Zero all of his "power" so that he may win against Kira the next day. Surprised, Zyro finds the colourful bonds speeding from Gingka and heading toward Zyro. As the bonds continue to come, the entranced moment ends. Zyro finds himself awake and how the dusk of night has turned to day. He finds that Gingka has disappeared and takes a look at Ifrit. He stands up to find a blimp of Gai's announcement of the final match between him and Kira. Zyro is now ready.

Commencing with another recap by Blader Gai, the finals of Neo Battle Bladers are about to begin. Zyro Kurogane, the Blader of Fire, will be facing off against Kira Hayama, the Killing Mountain-Breaker. News of Blader Gai's words are shown throughout all of Metal Bey City, informing everyone of the extraordinary match that has almost arrived. Benkei hears the news along with an injured Shinobu, while Mal and Ren hear as well. Subsequently, they are met by a sprinting Zyro apologizing for the delay in his arrival; assuring them that he is ready as he ever be for the battle. Meanwhile, Kira is on his way to his upcoming match whilst accompanied by Yoshio. As they go, they exchange a talk where Yoshio asks if Kira is ready for his battle and acknowledges how Zyro will be a force as his opponent. Kira however, does not worry as he is quite calm and confident that he can and will defeat Zyro; suggested by their past Synchrom battle after Kira hacked the WBBA just before Neo Battle Bladers was announced. Yoshio hears Kira's words and accepts this as they at last, arrive to the tournament. Elsewhere however, are the heads of DNA, Team Gracia, trapped in a room. After the betrayal of their two most powerful Bladers, they trapped the Garcias in one of their headquarters' rooms, not able to leave due to a locked door in their way. As they pester and argue over what their bladers has done, Merci begins a chat with them over the query. As uncaring and sarcastic as Merci is, Merci shows no remorse or compassion over their "reprogrammers", stating that Kira will go off to continue in his fight against Zyro with Gladiator Bahamoote, not Berserker Behemoth. Not long after, Zyro and Kira have finally arrived to their highly anticipated showdown in Neo Battle Bladers, the final fight that will decide the No. 1 Blader in Japan. As they walk toward their respective Zero-G platforms, Blader Gai announces how this battle is almost ready to begin. Zero has a short reminiscing over the sight he had seen yesterday, Gingka Hagane. This opportunity allowed Gingka to give Zyro confidence and a renewed reassurance to defeat Kira. Gingka's speech about the Blader's Spirit definitely helped Zyro and now is his time to prove it. Kira then goes to talk with Zyro for their match, stating that he is impressed by Zyro's skills and is glad to be fighting him once more, knowing that this will be a sight to see. Zero however, still irritated for what Kira has done, ignores this as he and Kira countdown to "Let It Rip!" and launch out their Beyblades. Samurai Ifrit throws down with Gladiator Bahamoote when their first collision causes an enormous explosion to emerge in a similar manner to Kira's fight with Shinobu. The beys continue to clash and attack one-another, with the grinding of the metal slowly offering more blows and hits as Ifrit and Bahamoote battle. Zero is temporarily concerned when he discovers how powerful the Gladiator Bahamoote is for himself; seeing as how the bey continues to wipe the floor with Ifrit with a rampage of assaults. This fades away when Zyro is able to make an unexpected move by having Ifrit first doge one of Bahamoote's planned attacks. Kira, impressed yet surprised, sees how Zyro continues this strategy, hoping to use this to victory. With more dodges that can be spectated, Zyro decides to bring with it his special move, Burning Uppercut. With one blow, this manages to bring Bahamoote away from Ifrit and to the centre of the Zero-G System. Unfortunately for Zyro, this does not knockout Bahamoote as it managed to survive the attack. Kira is very impressed by Zyro's tactics in battle, showing that he has changed from their previous fight. Despite this, Kira decides to become more serious in this battle when he has his bey go full-throttle on the next attack. Cracks begin forming on the Zero-G Stadium, heavy winds begin to appear throughout and the shaking and powerful rampaging of the platforms forces Zyro to grab on but is thrown back, anyway. Zyro lifts himself up in order to look at the sight that is seen before him. With Kira bringing his own force into the battle, the pressure only builds and the difficulty increases for Zyro.

The last match of Neo Battle Bladers pits the fateful brawl between Zyro and Kira. As the battle continues, Zyro is caught off by surprise from the tremendous power of Kira's Gladiator Bahamoote. Bahamoote is showing powerful moves against Zyro's Samurai Ifrit. As the audience looks in with awe and cheer, they watch every second of this enticing battle. As the two Beyblades continue to clash in an epic combat, Zyro is frustrated when Bahamut is showing incredible power that seems to become too much for Ifrit to handle. As the Zero-G Stadium continues to sway and rock at every second, and combined with the powerful winds that were created and emitted by Bahamoote, it seems as if Zyro does not have a way to get out of this predicament. It only gets worse when Kira builds up the moment to use his special move, Gladiator Demolition. Just like in Kira's battle with Shinobu, the beast of Gladiator Bahamoote returns to wreak havoc once again on his opponent and the Zero-G Stadium. A heavy rocking causes incredible force to occur to the Zero-G Stadium with the bladers' platforms as well. Zyro attempts to hold on to the difficult shaking of the destruction when smoke created by explosions escape into the air. The shaking and thrusting of the demolition is like that of an earthquake, and an explosion covers the view-point to make it impossible to decipher what is the outcome. As a result, Mal, Kite, Eight, and Ren stand from their seats in fear in response to Kira's special move. Not wanting to see their friend hurt or lose the battle, they are relieved because once the smoke clears, they find Gladiator Bahamoote spinning with Samurai Ifrit. Kira is shocked by this as well, seeing as how nobody could survive what is believed to be the ultimate special move in history, even if Shinobu was the only one to witness it, first-hand. Although he is alarmed, Kira does not hesitate to have Bahamoote continue to attack Samurai Ifrit of which, in turn, holds its ground from the commands of its owner, Zyro. Zyro tries his best to survive every hit from, Bahamoote, especially when the whole Zero-G Stadium is wrecked to a complete re-haul, leaving only the same status of destructive nature from Shinobu's last match. Bahamoote and Ifrit continue to duke it out in the BeyStadium, giving it their all as they fight to their maximum. Zyro knows that he cannot give up, not now, especially when he was able to survive through Kira'a assault with Bahamoote. Zyro's hope and reassurance still remains, even when Bahamoote still seems to have the upper hand and continues to wipe the floor with Ifrit, knocking it into the air with all of its might; Ifrit is helpless. Just to make matters worse, Kira uses Gladiator Demolition again in order to finish the match off, once and for all. When the Beast of Gladiator Bahamoote returns, it rushes into Samurai Ifrit and in an instant, smacks it high-up into the air, thrown away into the clouds. The whole audience and every spectator is shocked. While the match is not over yet, the odds seem to be against Zyro. Zyro does not care at all. Zyro remembers that fateful encounter that he had with the great blader, Gingka Hagane, yesterday. From their match that took them to the cosmos, the preach of the blader's spirit still remained. A force that does not depend on the strength of the beyblade itself, but the heart and soul of its Blader. The bonds of friendship empower these forces, causing entrusted emotions to shine bright. Zyro holds bonds that are kept with his best friends, a lesson that was taught to him by Gingka. Zyro takes a stance to ignore what everyone else and Kira thinks about the outcome and possibility of Zyro's loss in this battle. Zyro uses Gingka's speech to preach on the powerful force that is the blader's spirit. Depending on the bonds that one holds with their friends, it allows them to defy the odds and go beyond what could not be beyond. It is the scared ideal that helps bladers in their most difficult of obstacles, just to let them reach what could not be. Samurai Ifrit is revealed to be rushing down from its throw by the hands of Gladiator Bahamoote, ready to return the favour in an epic clash of mass proportions. Only this time Samurai Ifrit is not alone. The beasts of Ninja Salamander, Thief Phoenix, Pirate Orochi, and Guardian Leviathan team-up with their friend to create a new special move. This bond creates the ultimate special move, Burning Tornado Fire, and it goes far beyond of Gladiator Demolition. When Kira commands Gladiator Bahamoote to create a shield of dark energy to protect it, it is still no nothing when Samurai Ifrit makes contact with Bahamut and creates one of the biggest explosions ever known. The audience shields themselves from the force of the battle, as Zyro and Kira continue their final battle. When the explosion causes the mist to disappear, Samurai Ifrit is grinding at the top on Gladiator Bahamoote, causing it to stop spinning. Zyro is the champion of Neo Battle Bladers and becomes the new "No. 1 Blader in Japan". When a moment of silence appears, the audience bursts out in total joy when Blader Gai announces the news. Kira smacks his fist into the ground in anger, frustrated by the result but he walks away with Yoshio. Shinobu had watched the whole scene as well, being carried by Benkei to see Zyro in the fight. Zyro's friends later run towards Zyro to congratulate him on his victory. As Maru hugs Zyro, everyone rejoices in glee and happiness with Zyro winning. Nobody could have been happier in this moment, but Zyro takes a look back at Kira and dashes towards him. Zyro offers Kira the chance to become friends, especially after the epic battle that was taken between them; not wanting their to be any loose ties between the two. Despite this, Kira's attitude and true colours still show when he rejects Zyro's statement and walks away with Yoshio. While disappointing and confusing Zyro at the same time, he is approached by his friends to tell him not to worry about it, anyway. Tsubasa, the head of the WBBA even goes on to announce the outcome with Zyro as the new victor; whilst also letting out details about a new "world championship" to take place, soon after. Zyro is sure that he and his friends will embark together on a world championship, should they. As time passes from the final battle, things start to change. Sakyo and Takanosuke have left as spectators to do some training with their Beyblades in preparation for the next world championship, hoping to take part in it. Benkei later starts a new "training program", due to his success of training of Zyro who as a result, became the No. 1 Blader in Japan. Two Benkei's newest recruits are Gen and Akuya who are lifting weight with buckets. Zyro and Shinobu are at Bey Park and the two are about to battle. The two take a stance to yell out the legendary chant, about to launch Samurai Ifrit and Ninja Salamander. "3... 2... 1...Let It Rip!".

During a dark and stormy night, Gingka is walking past, until he finds a young boy crying behind a big rock. He tells Gingka about his "problem" and he seems to be holding a Zero-G Launcher Grip, revealing that he is a Blader. Gingka tries to help the Blader find his "Bey" and they go into an abandoned temple. Lightning then strikes, scaring the small boy, and Gingka begins to explore the temple in search of the boy's Beyblade. As Gingka walks by, he notices a mysterious Beyblade already spinning. Gingka assumes there is some Blader attempting to challenge him, but as he attempts to grab his Samurai Pegasus, it is gone. The Legendary Blader suddenly hears a voice of laughter, it is none other than the little boy himself, revealing how he stole Gingka's Bey! Gingka is quick to react, but even before he could make a single step, the temple ground breaks and he falls into unknown whereabouts. The boy laughs about his completed plan in snagging Samurai Pegasus. Meanwhile in Metal Bey City, Blader Gai announces how the second Beyblade World Championships has begun global qualifying tournaments; many incredible battles happening every second. Zyro practices with Samurai Ifrit knocking down opponents with the power of its special move, Burning Uppercut. In the audience, Benkei and the others are surprised that after Neo Battle Bladers, Zyro is still growing and becoming stronger day by day. Zyro asks the audience if they would like to challenge the Blader of Fire, and of course everyone is excited. Blader Gai then states how that three of the supreme bladers, Zyro, Shinobu, and Kite are apparently in the top three, while Ren wants to challenge them, including Eight. Zyro begins to battle Ren in a battle of flames and meanwhile, the little boy from earlier seems to be lurking in Metal Bey City. Later, Zyro and Co. eat at Bull Burger as Zyro enjoys his delicious burger and everyone else is talking about their awesome Beybattles. A storm appears outside, where two Bladers spring in an effort to avoid the rain. Soon enough, they stumble upon an unknown bey and the young boy who stole Samurai Pegasus starts a fight with those two; another beybattle begins. Despite this, the two boys' beyblades are no match for it. The next day, Ren and Eight are hurrying quickly for a chance to fight the mighty Zyro, Kite and Shinobu but unfortunately other bladers made it before them. Many spectators are happily witnessing the epic fights between the two fierce bladers, but then an explosion occurs near the door. Yoshio enters with a sinister look, he brings the remaining DNA laders with him. Everyone is alarmed, including Kite, who assumed DNA was done for good. Yoshio and the other DNA bladers begin trashing the precious arena and Stadium, while the other bladers are scared and frightened. Zyro and Shinobu are elsewhere at Bull Burger but Maru runs, informing Zyro that DNA has returned, and are stronger than ever. The two Fire Bladers are confused and head to BeyPark to protect it from the vile bladers. Back at BeyPark, it is totally trashed and Ren and Eight are tired of sitting around, so they prepare to launch their beys, but a voice can be heard somewhere. A young boy who was the one from earlier, jumps onto Yoshio's head. He reveals himself as a DNA member, Baihu. He subsequently challenges Kite to a battle and the latter accepts, believing he will school the youngling. Yet another fearsome fight has begun, with Kite's Guardian Leviathan battling Berserker Byakko. Kite pushes his strength to demolish Berserker Byakko, but every attack he makes does not affect it. Baihu laughs and tells Kite that his pathetic attacks cannot give a scratch to his bey at all, so he unleashes his special move, Fierce Tiger Blast. Byakko shoots out blue lightning which shockingly splits the Cyclone Stadium in quarters, defeating Kite. Everyone is amazed at Berserker Byakko's power whilst Shinobu and Zyro attempt to confront Yoshio, believing they shall stop DNA for good, this time. Meanwhile in the DNA headquarters, Kira is seen as DNA's new leader, still possessing the Emperor of Ultimate Destruction, Gladiator Bahamoote. He Synchromes it with the Samurai Pegasus which Baihu gave him. Kira presents his newly ultimate beyblade, Pegasus Bahamoote to Merci, who is pleased. Team Garcias, freed from their prison, tells Kira not to lose this time. Merci soon uses his electrical powers to electrocute the Garcias, hurting them severely. Argo is very irritated at the ruthless Merci, threatening him but Merci tells them that they have lost their position as DNA's leaders and uses an unknown power source to blast a wave of electricity, and a familiar voice speaks, scaring the Garcias. The electricity begins forming a body, which later forms a figure very recognizable: Doji. Returning to his original state prior to when the Forbidden Bey took Doji's life energy approximately seven years ago. Doji tells the Garcias that he DNA was never there's and was created to get revenge on the WBBA. Kira subsequently speaks and says its time he go as well.

DNA continues their assault on BeyPark, interrupting the tournament and defeating the security. As mist from the DNA's destructive force clears, Zyro and Co. find the DNA Bladers approaching and they standoff. Kira proclaims BeyPark's destruction and subsequently orders his fellow DNA workers to attack. Zyro and Co. enter the fray with Zyro battling Captain Arrow, Shinobu against Genjūro and Kite versus Spike. Yoshio Bandit Golem causes an explosion which destroys a Cyclone Stadium while Arrow uses Arrow Tornado. All the DNA members pull heavy attacks with explosions throughout BeyPark. However Shinobu's Ninja Salamander knocks back Spike's Thief Girago, landing in Wyvern's tornado and sent flying out of BeyPark. Ren's Thief Phoenix brawls with Genjūro's Bandit Genbu and Phoenix proves victorious to send Genbu flying for it to cease spinning. Kite's Guardian Leviathan goes head on with Baihu's Berserker Byakko. Unknowingly, Eight launches Pirate Orochi and grinds against the Tiger, helping his older brother who appreciates it. The Unabara Brothers double-team Baihu as Orochi and Leviathan hurls Byakko towards a wall. Zyro however enters a Cyclone Stadium versus Yoshio with Samurai Ifrit clashing with Bandit Golem. Zyro commands Ifrit attack Golem and wins the match with one hit. Kira steps in to take Yoshio's place in the Stadium. Zyro is determined to defeat Kira at all costs but everything changes once Kira announces his surprise. Rather than simply utilizing Gladiator Bahamoote against him, Kira creates the ultimate Synchrome: Pegasus Bahamoote. Everyone is alarmed by Kira's combination and Pegasus Bahamoote knocks Salamander Ifrit with great ease off the Cyclone Stadium, only for it to land again and suffer multiple attacks. Pegasus Bagamoote throws Salamander Ifrit into the Stadium walls while a crack spreads throughout the swaying Stadium, leaving it in pieces. Pegasus Bahamoote returns for a final attack as it takes the skies and speeds back down into Salamander Ifrit, blowing up the Cyclone Stadium. Pegasus Bahamoote is seen grinding it into the ground. Zyro collapses in defeat, irritated at Kira's Synchrome. As Kira gloats from his win which leaves spectators scared and Maru, Benkei, Tsubasa and Madoka concerned, a familiar voices is heard. That voice belongs to Doji, former Dark Nebula head who presumably died. While Zyro and Co. are confused, Doji reveals how he has survived. Approximately seven years ago during the Nemesis Crisis, Doji was believed to have faced death during Ryuga's battle against Rago where Ryuga used his L-Drago Destructor to have fallen to die. Doji however fell into water, only to be rescued by a defunct Dark Nebula submarine. Doji's condition at the time had worsened and was impossible to revive him through normal means so an unorthodox method was chosen. This method was converting Doji into light energy and fused with Merci whilst also gathering Team Garcias in founding DNA. After speaking his revelation, Doji announced how DNA will go to top of the Beyblade world in controlling it. Upon this, DNA left BeyPark to return to their headquarters. While everyone was concerned with DNA's intentions, Zyro was determined not to give up. He left the Cyclone Stadium platforms to retrieve their damaged Salamander Ifrit. Zyro announced to his friends that they would not give up and could not let DNA get away with this. With this encouragement, Zyro and Co. decided to go on a mission in leaving BeyPark and defeat DNA, once and for all.

Zyro and Co. have gone to search for DNA's headquarters. Madoka has found the location of DNA and Zyro decides to go there. Tsubasa tells Zyro that since Ryuga was possessed by the Forbidden Bey with Dark Nebula to the Nemesis Crisis, Doji is obsessed with dark power. Zyro understands how vital it is to stop DNA from taking over Beyblade and decides to stop them. After taking a look, the gang are shocked to find DNA headquarters. Maru uses her laptop to webcam with the WBBA, showing them the base. Likewise, Tsubasa, Madoka and Benkei express their concerns and speculate as to the safety of Zyro and the gang. Team Garcias and Doji use security cameras to spot Zyro and his friends already. As Zyro starts leading his friends into the stronghold, they suddenly find a person sitting on a rock before them. Aware of them, the person reveals himself as Karura, a Blader wielding Guardian Garudas. He tells them that he will not let Zyro and Co. pass. Zyro pulls out his Launcher intending to battle him, but Kite declares he will instead. Karura speaks out his control over weather like thunder and wind which will prove difficult for Zyro's gang to overcome. Upon a lightning strike, Karura attaches Guardian Garudas to his Launcher Grip and launches into battle while Kite does the same. Guardian Leviathan speeds toward Guardian Garudas and smashes it back. After landing, Karura commands Garudas to seemingly retreat which Leviathan chases but is struck by its opponent's surprise attack when Karura sends a blast of fire which throws Leviathan. Soon enough, Karura's Garudas barrages Guardian Leviathan with a forceful smash which also sends Leviathan flying with additional flames blowing it. Eight launches Pirate Orochi to aid Kite and despite his helpful effort, Karura summons raging winds which hinders both Beys. Zyro, Shinobu and Ren then agree they should be helping out as well and launch Samurai Ifrit, Ninja Salamander and Thief Phoenix, respectively. Karura is quick to react and sends Guardian Garudas to the sky in order to create another lightning strike which hits Ifrit, Salamander, and Phoenix. Another lightning strike attacks Leviathan and Orochi, erupting lava takes Ifrit and Salamander while heavy wind blasts Phoenix. DNA watches the entire battle progress, as Samurai Ifrit dashes towards Guardian Garudas only to be left behind when Garudas races away with a flaming trail. Maru contacts Madoka for assistance in the Beybattle for Zyro and the gang. Madoka is able to hypothesize that the extreme weather conditions may originate naturally and tells Maru to scan the battlefield for any signs. Maru does so and exclaims in delight how her teacher was correct and calls out to the others. She tells them that Karura knows when the flames, wind, and lightning are going to happen thus eliminating his supposed "unnatural" powers. After hearing this, Kite laughs at how ridiculous Karura claims he is and sends Guardian Leviathan utilizes the wind currents to exterminate the flames, shocking Karura. Kite makes an announcement for his friends that he will finish off Karura and they should continue their infiltration. Zyro accepts this but Eight wants to stay and help fight. Kite assures Eight that he will return to help out Zyro, Maru, Shinobu and Ren to which Eight accepts and leaves. Although Karura is aware of this and summons more wind currents to block them, Kite commands Leviathan to attack Garudas which cancels the winds and allows them to bypass Karura, shocking the Garcias as well. Karura and Kite's Beysgo head-to-head with instant smashes both Beys deliver upon one another. Karura presents more flames but Kite prepares to counter him. He uses the flames to elevate Leviathan and bring in the wind currents to strike back down at Karura. Shocked by what Kite could achieve, the attack defeats Garudas and knocks Karura off the rock. Elsewhere, Zyro and Co. have successfully entered DNA headquarters. They suddenly hear Doji's voice while the DNA Bladers reappear and take aim at Zyro's gang.

After defeating Karura, Zyro and Co. finally infiltrate the DNA headquarters but are immediately confronted by the DNA Bladers. Although DNA are prepared to prevent Zyro and his friends from defeating Kira, they later are determined to bypass them. Subsequently every blader launch their Beys into battle as Zyro starts with his Samurai Ifrit attacking Yoshio's Bandit Golem but Spike commands Thief Zirago to attack Ifrit. Shinobu's Ninja Salamander battles Genjūro's Bandit Genbu but is pushed back. Ren's Thief Phoenix and Eight's Pirate Orochi continuously defeat multiple generic Beys. Shinobu suggests they all split up to cover more ground in DNA Headquarters and everyone agree. Genjūro, Spike, and Arrow chase Zyro and Co. while Doji and Team Garcias are watching them through surveillance cameras. Ren and Eight continue to eliminate DNA trainees, but Enzo has blocked their route with metal doors. Unable to escape, the two are cornered by Spike and Arrow with an army of DNA trainers. Despite sending out Thief Phoenix and Pirate Orochi, electricity originating in the hallway strikes both beys forcing them to attack each other. Spike has Zirago attack Phoenix while Arrow's Wyvern attack Orochi. After Orochi lands from Wyvern's attack, Captain Arrow uses his special move, Arrow Tornado which throws Ren and Eight against a wall. Meanwhile, Shinobu runs a solo route only to confront Genjūro. They engage in battle but Genjūro encases Genbu and Salamander in a gian, glass cage. Genjūro uses his special move, Rolling Shell Break, but Salamander withstands it. Genbu continues to attack Ninja Salamander as Shinobu is forced to watch. Zyro and Maru discover a door and upon entering they discover the Beystadium previously used during Zyro's Synchrome Battle against Kira. Yoshio enters through an opposite door to announce their Beybattle, and Zyro accepts. Samurai Ifrit and Golem do battle but Ifrit finds itself knocked back from the first strike. After more smashes which do nothing to the Golem, Maru discovers the problem: Yoshio's Beyblade is a Synchrome. Instead of using Bandit Golem, Yoshio reveals how he inherit Kira's Berserker Behemoth after Kira abandoned it. Behemoth Golem continues to dominate Ifrit and sends it flying. Elsewhere, Gingka awakens to shockingly find out he is chained to a wall and horridly watches Yoshio beating Zyro, a helpless Shinobu against Genjūro and Ren and Eight victims to Spike and Captain Arrow. When he attempts to free himself, his arms are electrocuted as a result. Subsequently his old enemy, Doji appears which shocks Gingka from not seeing him since seven years ago. Gingka exclaims how Doji should be dead, but Doji tells him how Merci revived him and details DNA's future plans. Gingka knows Doji and DNA will not get away with this but is again electricity-shocked after another attempt at leaving; which only pleases Doji, whom manically laughs. Whilst Zyro still struggles with Yoshio, Shinobu continues against Genjūro. After a hit from Genbu where Salamander hits the glass case, Shinobu notices a small crack inflicted. Acknowledging this, Shinobu has Salamander to charge Genbu, who attacks and sends into Salamander into the crack. Ren and Eight are still suffering at the hands of Spike and Captain Arrow. Just when Thief Zirago and Archer Wyvern plan to land a final hit against them, Archer Griffin and Ronin Dragoon smash through the metal door. The surprise alarms all spectators, including Gingka and Doji as Sakyo and Takanosuke crash the party. Archer Griffin and Ronin Dragoon then instantly wipe out all the DNA Bladers and their Beys have crashed to the ceilings, saving Ren and Eight. Sakyo and Takanosuke retract their Beyblades and take their leave. Shinobu destroys the glass cage and uses his special move, Blazing Ring Shot, to defeat Genjūro. Zyro continues to battle Yoshio and is being struck with powerful blows from Behemoth Golem. Yoshio laughs at this and Zyro attempts to use his own attack power which holds against Behemoth Golem, but Maru knows that it is futile. Shinobu launches Salamander into the stadium and the two pushes Behemoth Golem back. Sakyo and Takanosuke head towards Zyro and Shinobu's battle with Yoshio and offer their help. Sakyo and Takanosuke then announce their Synchrome Bey: Griffin Dragoon. The two inform Zyro and Co. how they will take care of Yoshio so they can move on to defeating DNA. Appreciative of this, Zyro, Maru, and Shinobu leave the stadium to continue their infiltration to finding Kira. Gingka also converses with Doji, assuring how Zyro and Co. will succeed but Doji says otherwise. With the sound of 3, 2, 1, Sakyo and Yoshio launch their Synchrome Beys.

Sakyo and Yoshio launch their beys and Behemoth Golem throws Griffin Dragoon into the air. Yoshio says he will win for Kira, but Sakyo tells him he shouldn't use a Synchrome Bey because Kira isn't there to help him. Sayko and Takanosuke show Yoshio their Bey Spirits and Griffin Dragoon sends Behemoth Golem flying out of the stadium along with Yoshio, defeating him. Zyro, Shinobu, and Maru enter a room where Baihu was waiting for them. Shinobu challenges Baihu because Zyro needs to be the one to Kira. Doji tells Gingka that even Kira will have a hard time defeating Baihu because the Garcias couldn't control him. Shinobu and Baihu launch their beys and a labyrinth appears out of the stadium. The labyrinth is revealed to be a trap for Ninja Salamander, but Shinobu still continues with the battle. While Shinobu tries to figure out where Berserker Byakko is hiding, Baihu knows where Salamander is going to come. Byakko sends Salamander flying into the air and to the beginning of the labyrinth. Baihu continues to follow Salamander movements and Byakko attacks. Shinobu has Salamander sit at one spot of the labyrinth but Byakko jumps at Salamander. Shinobu has Salamander retreat but Byakko jumps over the wall and sends Salamander through a wall. Zyro and Maru tries figure out how Baihu keeps finding Shinobu and Baihu reveals its animal instinct. Berserker Byakko sends Ninja Salamander flying all over the stadium. Team Garcias reveal that Baihu was raised by a tiger in the wilderness of China. They recruited him after seeing his instinct and strength but couldn't control him completely because of it. They kick him out, but Doji brought him back to help. Byakko continues to push Salamander back and starts to destroy it. Zyro tells Shinobu to switch because Ifrit's power could destroy the walls, but Shinobu gets an idea and tells Zyro not to interfere. Salamander runs away while Byakko chases him and smashes through the walls. Zyro tells Shinobu to counterattack but Maru tells him that Shinobu must have a plan that they don't know.

Zyro, Shinobu, and Maru finds a prisoned Gingka and Maru contacts Tsubasa to tell him they found Gingka. Doji appears and brings Kira to dispose of Zyro with Pegasus Bahamoote. Hearing his Beys name, Gingka is confused and outraged as a result even more when Doji shows him his Bey remaining parts safely kept away in storage. Doji explains how DNA's Bladers use their tactics to stop Zyro and his friends. Zyro is angered and explains how he got there with everyone's help. He says he'll show his Bey spirit and defeat Kira. This amuses Doji as Kira approaches Zyro for the last battle. Shinobu assures Zyro's planned victory by giving him Salamander's Warrior Wheel to use their Synchrome: Salamander Ifrit. Zyro takes it and is now able to battle Kira with their Synchrome. Doji then calls forth a Cyclone Stadium being elevated from underground with the loser falling into it. Zyro and Kira enter their respective platforms and signal "3...2...1 Let It Rip!" as Salamander Ifrit clash with Pegasus Bahamoote. A sudden explosive burst is emitted as both Synchromes make contact. Kira's Pegasus Bahamoote pushes back Salamander Ifrit as Zyro attempts to get things together. Whilst Maru scans information concerning Kira's Synchrome, Shinobu encourages Zyro despite Kira getting the upper hand. Kira's words and Pegasus Bahamoote strikes Zyro in fear. Zyro is constantly being thrown away in defeat, watching Pegasus Bahamoote attack Salamander Ifrit as electrical energy backlashes with every hit. Gingka yells out Zyro's name and struggles to break free of his chains. Doji meanwhile manically laughs, providing a speech on DNA's goals and intentions which Kira is fulfilling much to his delight. Zyro and Kira still battle and Salamander Ifrit still being pushed back. At last, Kira uses his full potential when a purple aura surrounds him yet Zyro mimics this by bursting out his Bey spirit which alarms Kira, Doji, and Gingka. Zyro makes a comeback with Salamander Ifrit sending Pegasus Bahamoote flying. The battle unfolds but Kira still keeps his intention to win and counters with Pegasus Bahamoote striking away at Salamander Ifrit. Zyro and Kira converse while Salamander Ifrit and Pegasus Bahamoote continue their assault on each another. Both beys give powerful blows to each other, which amazes Gingka and the others. Doji doesn't likes this and another surprise up his sleeve. He brings out his very own mecha designed for him and in this large robot, Doji can control its movements by entering it.
