Plot
Part 1
Zyro, Ren, Shinobu and Maru relax at Bull Burger after Zyro'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 Onizaki returns with his gang, back to wreck more havoc and intimidate new Bladers as he is ready to fight. Soon enough, Yoshio Iwayama 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 gangmembers 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 Bandid Goreim. Interested in this Bey, they begin their match as Gargole clashes in combat with Goreim. After a few hits and misses, Akuya is shocked to discover that Goreim seems to be the ultimate Defense-Type, judging from its extreme ability to withstand even the harshest attacks of the Attack-Type Gargole.
Akuya feels intimated that he commands his five gang members to launch out their own HWS Beyblades and duke it out with Goreim as they protect Gargole. Though suited for the fight, they like Gargole, are still not a single match to withstand any of Goreim's solid iron wall of defense. One by one, each HWS Bey is knocked out of the Stadium until only Gargole is left, with Akuya in deep fear.
One of the Beypark bladers dashes off to the Bull Burger, announcing to everyone how Yoshio Iwayama is very unbeatable, with nobody's Beyblade able to stand a worthy opponent for Bandid Goreim. 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 numerous HWS Beys, with Yoshio the reigning champion. But just before Zyro can challenge Yoshio, the latter lets out a final move where Goreim 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 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 Goreim commence.
Part 2
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 Zyro as he grows a fierce fiery aura in this epic battle against Yoshio Iwayama.
Yet after some other attacks onto Golem, Zyro becomes intensified in the battle for him to unleash his fury. Samurai Ifrit begins to glow a vortex of flames around it, circling and spinning around at high velocities as Zyro announces "Burning Upper" for his Bey to perform. 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 proud 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. He tells Yoshio he is disappointed in his loss to Zero. Yoshio then apologies and says he will do better.
After introducing himself to everyone, he introduces his Beyblade: the Berserker Behemoth SR200BWD, a Stamina-Type Beyblade. 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 since Zyro is too exhausted. Accepting this, as Shinobu is the "Invincible Salamander" after all, they get into battle position and launch their Beys at the sound of "Go Shoot!".
While Behemoth faces-off with Salamander, Maru 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 conclude with a Special Move. Kira just shows another trick up his sleeve by activating a strange eyepiece 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. While they exit, Zyro is looking at Kira in anger while he just walks away with Yoshio.
