Wakiya: All right! Keep that hype up as we make our way to the 3rd round of battle!

Bel: You can't hide from me anymore, Rashad! The time has come for you to face the Dark Prince!

Rashad: (Grunts)

Wakiya: We have something special for the 3 round. It's time for a battle royale!

Bel: Huh? A battle royale?

Wakiya: That's right. The rules are simple. Whichever team has the Bey that survived to the end wins!

Ranzo: That's what I'm talkin' about! Let's keep up our momentum and win this one, too!

Bel: But all I wanna do is battle against Rashad, not all this!

Ryuka: No worries on that front. If it's a battle royale, Rashad will be out there with his team, too!

Bella: You got all that, bro?

Bel: Well, in that case, count me in. (Laughing)

Rashad looks to the side seeing the Dark Princess and Prince's team.

Ranzo: Me and hermana gonna go on the attack from the start.

Bel: No way. Not happening.

Ranzo: Why not?

Valt: (Laughing)

Rashad: (Valt, I wonder. Is teamwork even possible with that selfish Dark Prince on your side?)

(Meanwhile at Phantom's Gate)

(Clanging)

Kiyamas: Ah!

Bel: (Laughing) Devastate Belfyre's really on the roll now. It's unbeatable. Truly the best in the world.

Ranzo: (Snarls)

Bella: And there you go gloating again.

Valt: But Bel, you can't rely on your power alone to win the battle royale!

Bel: The strongest Blader's the one who wins. That's just the way the cookie crumbles.

Valt: Remember the battle royale on Ogre Island?

Bel: Mm?

Ryuka: The one that Ilya and Haruki won? How could I forget?

Ranzo: Ilya caught us all by surprise and won in the end, right?

He remembered Ifritor and Hydra knocked both Roktavors.

Ranzo: I still can't believe she came flying in at just the right time to knock out the last 3 Beys.

Valt: It wasn't luck. Ilya has a plan. She watched how it was all going down and waited for the perfect time to strike.

Bella: (Gasps) So that's why Bia dropped out of the battle. Because she knew that Ilya was going to win.

Ryuka: Oh, I get it! If we want to win this battle royale, we're gonna need boatloads of strategy and team play on our side.

Valt: (Grunts) You got it, Ryuka.

Daizoras: The Dark Prince/Princess gets it, too!

Valt: (Grunts) That's great!

Bel: They're doomed! Regnar, Balkesh, Ifritor, Hydra, and Dragoness! I'll cast each and every one of them into the dark abyss!

Valt: 💧 Uh--

Bella: 💧 That's not what he meant...

Ranzo: You mean "we will," right? As a team? Let's start thinking about team strategy.

Bel: (Groans)

Ranzo: For this to work, we gotta know how the others think. I'm talkin' full-on--

Bel: Jiji!

Ranzo: Listen!

Jinemon: Hi, Bel. Can I help you with something?

Bel: I want everyone to get a look at how Belfyre and I will sweep the competition at the battle royale!

Jinemon: Of course. Done. (Laughing)

(At the Surging Arena)

Valt: Wait! Hold on a sec, Bel!

Bella: What part of "team" don't you understand?!

Ranzo: Did you really get nothing from that whole teamwork moment?

Ryuka: Where's the strategy? The tactics? Any team play at all?

Bel: Now's your chance to strike, Belfyre! Nice one!

Kiyamas: (Screams)

Bel: (Laughing) Valtryek and Roktavor at once? Is there anything at all the Dark Prince can't do?

Valt, Bella, and Kiyamas: (Groaning)

Ranzo: We're getting nowhere with this.

Bella: This strategy is already a disaster.

Bel: Come on, bring it! Do your worst!

Ilya: They call that a practice? They're such a mess.

Homura: They're always a mess.

Bashara: He may lack discipline but it's clear how strong Bel is.

Rashad: (Grunts)

Bashara: After everything, I'm still no match against him. Even so, I feel greater than ever before that I want to win against him.

Rashad: Winning will depend on more than just one Blader's strength.

Bashara: (Grunts)

Rashad: Bashara, you're a wiz at analyzing. Why don't you come up with our strategy?

Bashara: Me? You sure, Rashad?

Rashad: (Scoffs) Of course.

Ilya: Hey, where'd the quintuple of darkness disappear to?

Rashad: Hmm?

They looked and they were not at the stadium.

Bel: Yeah!

Valt: Whoo!

Bella: Aw, yeah!

Rashad: (Gasps)

(At Phantom's Gate)

Daizoras and Valt: (Laughing)

Bel: You'll never be able to get as high as me!

Valt: Oh, yeah? Hate to burst your bubble, but I'm even higher than you are now!

Bella: I was preparing my ultimate zero gravity pose!

Valt: You mean a little something like this?

Bella: Nah, I could do this in my sleep, you know.

Valt: Hey, a nap does sound nice.

Bel: Behold the somersault of the Dark Prince!

Valt: Whoa, this is super fun!

Homura transforms into Haruki.

Haruki: Man, that is impressive. Lucky them.

Demi: Same here. I'm jealous.

Ranzo: Amigos, you three almost done? Why are we out here, anyway?

Bel: I'll have you know this is necessary team training!

Bella: This is perfect! Who would've thought this was a good idea?

Valt: Ryuka, Ranzo, you should join us up here!

Ranzo: 💧 I've got a bad feeling about this.

Ryuka: 💧 Me too, hermano.

Jinemon: Now, let me help you two up. (Laughing)

He turns on the fan, giving the Kiyama siblings to fly up.

Ranzo: Hey, wait!

Ryuka: Wait, wait, wait!

Kiyamas: (Shouting)

Jinemon: You should be feeling as light as a bird.

Valt: Go! Balance, Ranzo, balance!

Ranzo: Balance? What balance? I'm hovering!

Bel: It's easy! Just get into the rhythm. You said you wanted team play.

Ryuka: That's not what he had in mind!

Ranzo: How do I find the rhythm? I can't even find the ground!

Valt: You can do it, you two!

Bella: Just let your mind flow!

Bel: (Laughing)

Kiyamas: (Shouting)

(At the Surging Arena)

All: (Groaning)

Ilya: They're so embarrassing. It's really your dream to win against them?

Bashara: Yeah, well, they're great Bladers, and they're getting along fine. They sound just like family.

Demi: You're just like me, Bashara. I have my brother, my uncle, and my friends.

Haruki: That's right, you're a member of the Victories.

Demi: Yeah, over there, they're like a family to me.

Rashad: (Gasps and Grunts)

Ilya: Well, well, Rashad. Jealous much?

Rashad: Huh? Not at all. Valt's on the enemy team this time. (The only thing on my mind is defeating him.)

Demi: (Is that what he really wants?)

(Later)

Hanami: Bladers and Bey fans, the moment you've been waiting for has come! If you're just joining us, we're about to start off round 3 to decide which of these teams can call themselves the best of the best. We've got Team Dark Prince & Princess with Ranzo Kiyama, Ryuka Kiyama, Bella Daizora, Bel Daizora, and Valt Aoi! They're facing off against Team High Prince with Bladers Ilya Mao, Rashad Goodman, Haruki Tachibana, Demi Koryu, and Bashara Suiro! The team with their Bey still standing at the end of the match will be the winners of the round!

Wakiya was up in the private booth.

Wakiya: (Chuckles)

Wakiya: The energy in this place is electric. Go out there and show them the battle of a lifetime!

Hanna: Rashad's team's gonna win 'cause they've got Bashara. There's no one who can last longer in a battle like my brother!

Jinemon: Bella and Bel's team will work hard to endure, too. (Laughing)

Rashad switched Regnar's Driver in Defense Mode.

Ryuka: You see that?

Ranzo: Rashad just changed Regnar into Defense Mode.

Valt: (Grunts)

He remembered his last battle against Rashad. Valtryek didn't break through its defenses.

Valt: Regnar's defensive powers are strongest when it changes shape.

Bella: The Dark Princess witnessed Regnar's capabilities of no bursting point.

Bel: Hah, you think I care about any of that? All I've gotta do is defeat them and with Belfyre, that'll be easy.

Ranzo: Hold it right there. You haven't forgotten the entire strategy Valt cooked up for us, did you?

Ryuka: Remember what we talked about, or have you forgot about that?

Bel: Uh, no! Obviously I remember.

Ryuka: You sure about that, or...

(Flashback)

Valt: Okay, then it's settled. The plan is for us to go after Regnar first.

Ranzo: You got it. That way we can defeat it before it transforms, right?

Valt: Exactly right. Valtryek, Balam, and Belfyre will work to take out Regnar, and while that's happening, Roktavor can just hang back and save their strengths.

Ryuka: Oh, do you need me and hermano on deck to attack later or something?

Valt: We need you two to last as long as possible. We'll use the fact that both Roktavors are Stamina Type Beys. Even if somehow Valtryek, Belfyre, and Balam are all defeated, we need you both to spin to the end.

Ranzo: Oh, I get it. Now that's a plan, Valt!

Ryuka: When it's a stamina battle, count me in!

Bel: I don't wanna go out. I wanna spin to the end, too.

Valt: It'd be great if we all do, but to beat Rashad, we need to focus on our teamwork.

Bella: Remember, Bel. This battle royale is for the team, not a solo match.

Bel: (Groans) Oh, fine! I'll beat Rashad using teamwork, but only if I have to!

Bella: (Sighs) Sometimes, you are really playing hard to get.

Valt: I'll be counting on you out there.

(End of flashback)

Referee: Time for the battle royale!

Referee: Ready, set!

3, 2, 1, Let it Rip!!!

Valt: Valtryek, you know what to do!

Bel: Show them no mercy!

Bella: Balam, get in there!

Hanami: Watch out! Looks like Valt Aoi, the Dark Prince and Princess are zeroing in on Regnar!

Ilya: You've gotta get through me first!

Bashara: You're not getting Regnar on our watch!

Hanami: Balkesh and Ifritor jump in and begin desperately defending Regnar! With bodyguards in place, Regnar can take center stage!

Regnar's layer is starting to open up.

Hanami: Here it comes. Regnar's starting to transform!

Bel: We can't let that happen, can we? Take them out, Belfyre!

Bella: Balam, let's get through them!

Ilya: Nope, not happening.

Bashara: Stay clear of Regnar!

Demi: You two aren't getting near it!

Homura: Get out of the way!

Belfyre's Almight Driver tip drifted and suddenly slipped pass Ifritor and Balkesh.

Bashara and Ilya: (Gasps)

Balam's Metal Dimension Driver tilted to the right and got away between Dragoness and Hydra.

Demi and Homura: (Gasps)

Daizoras: It's time to meet your doom! Double Wrecker!!!

Belfyre and Balam slams into Regnar, sending it up in the air.

Bel: How'd you like that?

As Regnar landed, its halo changed shape.

Rashad: Show them our power, Regnar, with Glory Crown!

Bel: (Gasps) Straight in, Belfyre, now!

Ilya and Bashara: Double Windmill!!!

As they charge and collide toward one another, Balkesh and Ifritor build up speed as their Blades grind against each other while rotating in their respective spin directions, creating two barriers that rotate against one another to deflect Belfyre's attacks.

Bel: (Grunts)

Valt: Back him up, Valtryek!

Bella: Keep pushing in, Balam!

Kiyamas: You, too, Roktavor!

Demi: Dragoness! Help them out!

Homura: Hydra, get them!

All 9 Beys have collided with each other.

Bashara: Do it, Rashad! It's time!

Rashad: (Grunts) The light of the High Prince! Now, Glory Breaker!!!

Hanami: A total wipe out! Regnar crashes through with incredible power and blows everyone away, friend and foe alike!

Rashad: (Grunts and Gasps)

Hanami: It's not over! It's not over!

All: (Gasps)

Hanami: Valtryek has survived the impact!

Valt: (Grunts)

Ranzo: Oh, man. That was so cool!

Bella: Yes! Yes! Yes!

Ryuka: Alright, Valt! I thought we were goners!

Bel: Hey, you know, that wasn't half bad!

Rashad: Valtryek.

Right before Glory Breaker hit, Valtryek activated its Shot Driver to evade the attack.

Rashad: (Snarls) So that's how he did it.

Valt: (Shouting) GO!!! (Summon avatar) ULTRA SALVAGE WHIP!!!

Rashad: I WON'T LET YOU STOP ME! GO, GLORY BREAKER!!!

(Jackhammer pounding)

Both Beys got sent flying.

Valt: (Gasps)

Referee: The battle royale is over! Rashad and his team are the winners!

(Cheers and applause)

Rashad: (Grunts)

Bashara: Great job, Rashad. You did it.

Demi: You really shine through that.

Ilya: Yep, it went all according to your plan.

Rashad: (We may have won, but it was as a team. I don't know. Can I really count that as a win against Valt?)

Hanami: As the smoke settles, let's look at our scoreboard and see who's ahead!

Hanami: Team Dark Prince and Princess has 1 point while Team High Prince claims their 2nd win, putting them in the lead.

Wakiya: Way to go! That battle royale was a treat to behold, but now we move on to our 4th round, and we'll be going back to single matches.

Bel: It's finally time, Rashad! No more running! This time you'll be battling me!

Rashad: I'll be going up next.

Bel: (Laughs) That's what I like to hear! Prepare to be defeated by the Dark Prince, Rashad!

Rashad: (Grunting) Valt Aoi.

Bel: (Gasps)

Rashad: I challenge you to be my next opponent.

Bella: You want to battle Valt?

Valt: Rashad. (Grunts)

Bel: Is this some kind of joke? No, I'm your opponent! Me, you got it?!

Rashad and Valt are both staring down at each other.

Bel: Hey, don't ignore me!
