Plot

The episode starts with Reiji finishing battling with Yu. Doji looks up after the big explosion that occurred. Then they found out that Yu had escaped. The next day, Kyoya and Benkei face each other in the quater finals. Kyoya defeated Benkei after a good match and moved on to the semi-finals. In the next match, Gingka faced Ryutaro. Gingka had a tough time but finally he managed to defeat Ryutaro. Ryutaro realised how dangerous it could be if L-Drago wins over others, he also understood that only Gingka can stop Ryuga.
