Wakiya: All right, everyone, it's coming into view! Our next destination is...

Wakiya: Ogre Island! And the Legend you'll be battling at this location is... The great Lui Shirosagi!

Bashara: We get to battle Lui?!

Homura: Now, that's my kind of place!

Rashad: Ah, this is gonna be really good!

Ranzo: If this were a game, we'd be hearing boss music! Are you getting as excited as I am, buddy?

Bel: Lui's the one getting excited. He gets to battle me! But the Dark Prince is a lot stronger.

Bella: I beat him once, and I'll do it again!

Valt: Yeah! That's right, Bella! You did!

Bia: How could I forgotten? You did won against him. He'll be surprised once he sees our new Beys.

Hanna: That battle with Lui was so fun to watch!

Jinemon: I thought Phantom's Gate would tumble down from that match. (Laughs)

Bella: Even if we battle again, I'll still beat him! It's the Dark Princess' encore! (Laughs)

Wakiya: Hold on. It won't be so easy this time.

Bella: Hmm?

Wakiya: Laugh all you want, but you don't know the true terror behind Lui Shirosagi.

Bel: True terror? What is that?

Ranzo: I ain't got a clue.

Ryuka: (Shrugs) Don't ask me.

Wakiya: Rumors say that he's not a human,

Wakiya: he's a monster that walks among us!

Bashara: A monster?!

Ranzo: I'm not seeing it.

Ryuka: Not a ringing a bell.

Rashad: What a ridiculous story.

Homura: Really?

Bia: Such a fantasy.

Wakiya: And that's not all.

Ranzo: We get it! You're dramatically pausing!

Ryuka: Just get to the point!

Wakiya: Lui used the Quad System to evolve his Bey Lúinor into something even more powerful than before!

Hanna: Wait, he evolved Lúinor?

Valt: Guess Bella's influence reached him all the way to Ogre's Island.

Wakiya: If the rumors were true that Lúinor has evolved... its power would be incredible, so brace yourself for an awesome battle!

Bel: Okay, now this is getting me excited! Keep evolving your Bey, Lui! The Dark Prince would tear it through them all!

Ilya: (Chuckles)

The blimp was about to land on top of the island.

Bashara: So this is Ogre Island!

Ranzo: I see a stadium there!

Bia: I see Lui.

Ryuka: Really, where?!

Bia: (Pointed) There.

Bel: (Chuckles)

Bella: We meet again, Lui Shirosagi.

(On Ogre Island)

Lui: (Laughs)

Lui: Glad you could make it. I've been waiting, Bella Daizora.

Bella: Careful what you wish for. You've got what you wanted. I'm here.

Lui gets closer to her face.

Lui: (Chuckles)

Bella: This shouldn't take too long. One burst, and I'll win again.

Lui: (Laughs) There'll be a burst all right, you.

Bella and Lui: (Growling)

Wakiya: Wait, everyone! Knock it off!

Bella: Aww.

Wakiya: Lui, we've got to decide which one of these guys will get the chance to battle against you.

Lui: I told you this already! I'm not wasting my time battling anyone who isn't strong.

Wakiya: Don't worry. I got you covered. You'll go against the most powerful Blader we've got. All right, guys, we're gonna decide this one with a battle royale!

Ranzo: Battle Royale? What are you talkin' about?

Wakiya: We'll have a battle with all 8 Bladers going at once! And the winner of that would be the one who gets to challenge our Legend, Lui!

Bel: This'll be a blast. Watch, as the Dark Prince bursts 7 Beys at once!

Daizora Sisters, Bashara, Kiyamas, and Rashad: (Grumbles)

Haruki transforms into Homura.

Homura: We'll see about that.

Wakiya: Battle Royale sound good to you?

Lui: (Scoffs) If you're as strong as you say, then earn your way up. Win, Bel Daizora, and you shall battle me. (Laughs)

Hanami: Settle in, everyone! Today's sure to be action-packed! You feel that chill in the air? That's cause the Great Aerial Tour brought us to the Winter Knight himself, Lui Shirosagi! But only one Blader can win the right to battle Lui. A battle royale will decide which of the Bladers will challenge the Legend.

Hanami: It's a free-for-all battle you don't want to miss!

Lui: (Chuckles)

Hanna: Wait a sec. Where'd Ilya go?

Ilya: I want in on this!

Everyone turned to Ilya.

Ilya: I'm not missing out on this battle in a chance to challenge Lui, so I want in with Magma Ifritor!

Rashad: So that's Magma Ifritor.

Bel: Whoa! She's had a Quad Bey this entire time?!

Bella: I didn't know she was a Blader, too!

Homura helds out her Quad Bey too.

Homura: I'll do my best with Tropical Hydra!

Tropical Hydra is a clockwise Defense Type with a 4 Armor, a Illegal Disc, and a High Eternal Driver.

Bia: Tropical Hydra?

Ryuka: Talk about a masterpiece!

Ilya: Any complaints, or can we start?

Rashad: It all makes sense now. You came with us on the airship fully intending to do this, didn't you?

Ilya: I've been eager for a battle ever since I watched that great match between you, Bella, and Bel. It was so cool, that Ultra Flying Upper you did!

Ilya gets closer to Rashad.

Ilya: Let's be real. Even the Dark Prince and Princess doesn't stand a chance when they take the hits like that.

Wakiya: You can't just decide you're joining willy-nilly! We need order! Only the Bladers chosen for the tour can participate in the battle royale!

Ranzo: I don't care if there's one more. What's the harm in that? Let her join!

Ryuka: Sí, I don't see a problem about it.

Bashara: Okay with me.

Homura: Come on, Wakiya.

Wakiya: This is anarchy! Even if all of you are okay with it, as the organizer of this tour, it's my call.

Valt: Come on now. Let her join.

Wakiya: Huh?

Valt: You want the strongest Bladers on the tour, right? Well, back at BC Sol, her power rivaled Rashad's! Having her will only make this tour better!

Ilya: Well, I'm sold!

Wakiya: (Sighs)

Wakiya: She can join, but I decided it!

Valt: (Chuckles)

Bia: Wakiya. I'm dropping out.

Daizoras, Kiyamas, Suiros, Homura, Rashad, and Ilya: Huh?!

Bel: But, Sis, why?!

Bella: You can't just drop out!

Bia: I mean, I'll be observing the battle royale.

Wakiya: Are you sure you wanna do that, Bia?

Bia: It was my choice. I'll be watching the battle for now on.

Wakiya: If that's what you want, so be it.

Hanami: Breaking news! The Dark Queen, Bia Daizora has been dropped out of the battle royale! There's an exciting new Blader joining the Great Aerial Tour!

Hanami: Give a warm welcome to Ilya Mao and her Bey, Magma Ifritor!

Ranzo: Huh? That's one gnarly-looking Bey you've got there!

Ryuka: Looks like a pretty powerful Balance Type.

Ilya: Well, it's no match against Roktavor.

Kiyamas: Huh?

Ilya: I saw the broadcast of your battle. That power when it was in High Mode was amazing!

Ranzo: Think so? Finally Ranzo gets some recognition around here!

Ranzo is switching his Roktavor into High Mode.

Ranzo: All right, let's do this. Everyone'll see just how strong my High Mode is.

Bia taps on Ryuka's shoulder.

Ryuka: Huh? What?

Bia: (Whispers) Ryuka, don't let her trick you.

Ryuka: (Whispers) Trick me? What makes you say that, amiga?

Bia: (Whispers) She's a manipulative Blader. Don't let her words get to you. You cannot trust her.

Ryuka: (Whispers) I don't see what's the big deal. It's not like I'm gonna fall for it.

Bia: (Whispers) Don't say I didn't warn you.

Machine: Battle Royale!

Ilya puts her helmet on.

Hanami: A new Blader in the mix will really shake things up! But Ilya's first match won't be easy. What kind of tactics can we expect from her? I can't wait to find out!

Machine: Ready. Set!

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

Hanami: Valtryek wastes no time, with an attack on Belfyre right off the bat!

Belfyre used the V-Gear to shake it off.

Bel: All right, Belfyre! Go and leave it in the dust!

Rashad: Valtryek, don't let it get away!

Bashara: Here's your chance, Balkesh! Now take center stage!

Ranzo: You're not getting away with that! Stop 'em, Roktavor!

Ryuka: Not on my watch, Hermano! Go get 'em both, Roktavor!

Hanami: Both Roktavor's got plenty of power in High Mode to back up that fierce spin! Phew! I'd hate to be on the receiving end of that!

Bashara: What the...

Ryuka: We're not done yet!

Kiyamas: Double Winged Cyclone!!!

Both Roktavors blew Balkesh away.

Bashara: Now! Ringing Crash!!!

Balkesh's Moment Driver redirected itself and headed straight back to Roktavor.

Ranzo: You shouldn't have underestimated Roktavor's High Mode!

Ryuka: Big mistake!

Ranzo's Roktavor went to the drift zone and knocked Balkesh in the air as it lands on the first ramp.

Belfyre and Valtryek were still on the chase.

Bel and Rashad: (Yells)

Bashara: (Winces)

Hanami: Goodbye, Balkesh! Bashara's the first one to get knocked out.

Ryuka: Hah! Now we've got center stage all to ourselves!

Roktavor is starting to wobble.

Ranzo: Huh?

Hanami: Uh-oh! Both Roktavors starting to seesaw! Are they running out of stamina?!

Hanami: With one swift attack, Ifritor and Hydra has sent both Roktavors flying!

So that means the Kiyama siblings are out.

Ryuka: (Stammers) What just...?

Ranzo: (Stammers) Uh, wha?!

Ilya: (Chuckles) Guess pride clouds judgement.

Homura: Sorry, you guys were distracted.

Bashara: Losing your stamina by using High Mode was a tactical mistake, guys.

Ranzo: (Sighs and Groans)

Ryuka: Darn it!

Bia: I warned them.

Rashad: (That was a smart play, Ilya. Now watch as Valtryek crushes the Dark Princess and Prince.)

Looks like Balam is falling behind both Belfyre and Valtryek.

Bel: Enough messing around! I'll finish this with the S-Gear!

Bella: You think you have what it takes? Let's see what you got!

Balam, Belfyre, and Valtryek have all clashed together. Until...

Rashad: Ultra Flying Upper!

Valtryek uses its Shot Driver to shoot themselves in the air.

Daizoras and Rashad: (Chuckles)

Ilya: (Grunts) HYAH! IFRITOR!!! (Summon avatar)

Haruki: Here we go! (Roars) HYDRA!!! (Summon avatar) LET'S FINISH THIS!!! TROPICAL BLOW!!!

Ilya: I'M ENDING THIS RIGHT NOW! MAGMA SMASH!!!

Ifritor jumps off and crashes into Belfyre, Balam, and Valtryek with a powerful strike with the Magma Blade, causing critical damage to the point of Bursting all 3 of them.

Rashad and Bel: (Gasps)/Wha?!

Bella: What!?

Machine: Battle-Royale winners are Magma Ifritor and Tropical Hydra!

Hanami: Have you ever seen anything like it!? Hydra and Ifritor have burst all Balam, Belfyre, and Valtryek simultaneously! It's an upset we never could have predicted! The ones challenging Lui Shirosagi won't be the Dark Prince, Princess, and not BC Sol's Rashad Goodman. The winners are Homura Tachibana and Ilya Mao!

Ilya: (Chuckles)

Homura: Our first win... Aw, yeah!

Bashara and Bel: (Grumbles)

Lui: ABSOLUTELY PATHETIC!!!

(Thunder crashes)

Hanna: (Screams)

(Thunder rumbles)

Lui: Listen up, Bel and Bella Daizora. You've both disappointed me deeply.

Bel: (Groans)

Lui: (Growls)

Ranzo: On second thought, maybe he is a monster after all.

Ryuka: Yeah, no kidding.

A rainstorm is starting to pour.

Wakiya: It's picking up. Come on, everyone! Let's head to the shack!

(At Ogre's Island shack)

Valt: You weren't playing much like yourself out there, Rashad. Ultra Flying Upper is not a technique you'd usually use at a time like that. Your timing was a bit off, don't you think?

Rashad: I agree with you. I wasn't acting like myself. (Did I fall for Ilya's plan and not even notice?)

Hanna: Ranzo, Ryuka, Ilya said something to you two that threw you off, didn't she?

Ranzo: Not really, no.

Ryuka: Uh, maybe...

Hanna: You sure? It looked like she complimented you when you got in your head.

Ranzo: (Grumbles)

Ryuka: Busted.

Bashara: (Sighs) So that what she was up to.

Ryuka: What was?

Bashara: It's why you changed so suddenly to High Mode before the battle royale.

Ranzo: We did it 'cause we wanted to.

Bashara: You just think you did.

Ranzo: Huh?

Ryuka: What are you talking about?

Bashara: But we all played right into Ilya's hands, and we lost because of it.

Ryuka: So, Bia was right.

Homura: Why's that?

Ryuka: Ilya is a manipulator.

Homura transforms to Haruki.

Haruki: She can predict any beybattles that any Blader can fall for will be in the wrong hands.

Bashara: So that's why Bia dropped out of the battle earlier.

(Outside the shack)

Bel: I keep replaying the battle in my head, and don't know why I lost.

Ilya: (Grunts)

Bel: (Laughs) I'll allow you to battle against me one more time!

Ilya: (Sighs) You're quite the self-centered one, aren't you?

Bel: ☝️ One battle! That's it!

Ilya: (Sighs, Gasps, and Chuckles) You know what? Sure, we can battle, but only under one little condition.

Bel: Huh?

Without even noticing, the Daizora sisters were listening to them at the door.

Bella: What condition?

Bia: I don't like the sound of this.

(Outside)

Ilya: It's easy! If I win, you're gonna become my minion, and you'll stay that way for one full day.

Bel: What do you mean, your minion?

Ilya: You have to do everything I tell you to do.

Bel: Fine, you're on! Minion or anything else, it doesn't matter, 'cause I'll win!

Ilya: (Giggles)

Ilya: (Chuckles)

Bella: Do you have any idea what he's getting himself into?

Bia: Yeah, I can sense a lie inside her.

Bella: If Bel loses, she's gonna use him as her errand boy.

Bia: Not if I have anything to say about it. Bella, we leave at dawn.

Bella: (Grunts)

Ilya: First thing in the morning, let's head to the top of the mountain. It'll be our little secret, okay?

Bel: Revenge will be mine!
