Elsewhere, Mai and Zack try to convince the other teams to hold off the Inves Games due to the damage they cause and how they are missing most of the Team Leaders.

DJ Sagara comes to see Kouta and they talk about the situation. Sagara hands the Lemon Energy Lockseed and a bay that allows Kouta to use the Lemon Energy Lockseed. DJ Sagara leaves, along with the Security Card. Later, Mitsuzane finds Kouta cell and uses the card to unlock Kouta's door. They then head to Kaito's cell and releases him. The three run, with Takatora watching on security cameras, and he is surprised to see his brother. The three are ambushed by Kurokage Troopers. Mitsuzane goes on ahead and heads to the tunnels. Kaito transforms into Baron to continue is fight with the troopers. Kouta then finds his way to Yggdrasill's lab where the opening to Helheim is. Sid appears and they have a lengthy talk about how teenagers tend to be more reckless then adults. Kouta then transforms and jumps down, but Sid stops him and transforms, with their battle going on in the forest. Sigurd emerges victorious and continuously taunts Gaim. Baron appears and Gaim summons Sakura Hurricane. They both attack Sigurd simultaneously, but Sigurd survives and prepares to fire his Arrow shot, but is stopped by Marika.
