Meeting the Gang

Shinobu-Saramnda

Shinobu Hiryūin, showing his Shinobi Saramanda to Zero Kurogane.

During a match at the Metal Bey City BeyPark, Blader, Zero Kurogane won a 7 vs. 1 battle in victory. Afterwards, he shouted to the crowd to find the Best Blader there, Shinobu Hiryūin, and once he heard his name, Shinobu appeared out of nowhere. Showcasing his Beyblade, Shinobi Saramanda SW145SD, Shinobu wanted to show Zero what happens when Bladers disturb the peace and tranquility of the BeyPark battles; he challenged Zero to a battle, with Zero eagerly agreed.

Taking place in the Zero-G BeyStadium, Shinobu toyed with Zero, having an easy battle on his side. Zero attempted to counter this by commanding his Beyblade, the Samurai Ifraid W145CF to the air and clash down to hit Saramanda. Despite this attempt, Shinobu quickly commanded Shinobi Saramanda to evade, in a quick reflex. As a result, Zero's Ifraid was trapped and Shinobu saw this as his chance and used his Saramanda to knock-out Samurai Ifraid and take the win.[1]

A few days later, Shinobu was surprised when he saw Zero Kurogane running uphill, tied to three weight pullers in training. Shinobu wondered what Zero was doing, yet Zero did not see Shinobu.[2]. Afterwards when Shinobu lost to Zero in a battle in the Zero-G Stadium, Shinobu joined Zero's team.
