Then, Gao and Tasuku's Buddyfight commences in the school's amphitheatre as Gao's friends and little sister Hanako watch from the stands.

Tasuku accepts Gao's sudden challenge, and the fight is arranged to take place later. During lunch, Gao gets help from Baku on building a deck to suit his playstyle. Then, Gao and Tasuku's Buddyfight commences in the school's amphitheatre as Gao's friends and little sister Hanako watch from the stands. Gao's aggressive strategy eventually earns him the victory over Tasuku, who then recognizes Gao as his rival and gives him the Gargantua Punisher card.
After Drum quickly gets comfortable living with Gao's family, Gao goes to school. He asks Baku to help reconstruct his deck to include the Gargantua Punisher card that he received from Tasuku, but Baku and Kuguru believe that Gao is not yet ready to use it and recommend him to find a "tuner" (training partner). Later, Gao meets the dancing and rapping Tetsuya Kurodake and wants him to be his tuner. Tetsuya agrees but only if Gao can beat him in a Buddyfight under special conditions. So, Gao battles Tetsuya, whose buddy turns out to be the popular entertainer Demon Lord, Asmodai. Nonetheless, Gao manages to win using Gargantua Punisher and becomes friends with Tetsuya after the fight.
Gao and Drum have an argument and get mad at each other as Gao goes to school (with Drum secretly following him). There, his class is introduced to a new transfer student: Kiri Hyoryu, who is the boy that Gao saved from the group of bullies and has since then admired Gao. After school, Gao takes Kiri to the Castle Store where the Manager teaches Kiri how to Buddyfight by having him play an actual game. Both Kiri and the Manager use trial decks to fight as Gao stays by Kiri's side. With helpful teaching from both Gao and the Manager and despite being new to the game, Kiri defeats the Manager. After the battle, Kiri is congratulated by a stranger, Rouga Aragami, who goes on to tell him that winning is most important. Gao expresses his disagreement with Rouga, who takes his leave. Then, the bullies appear to challenge Gao, who is reunited with Drum and beats one of the bullies in a Buddyfight. After the bullies retreat, Gao and Drum reconcile. Elsewhere, Rouga is instructed by his superior, Magoroku Shido, to retrieve photon metal. Rouga uses his Dark Core to assume the identity of "Wolf" and calls out his buddy Armorknight Cerberus to start the mission.
Gao's class is going to a field trip to the photon metal mines, but the trip is cancelled due to "Wolf" attacking the mines to steal Photon metal, however they don't realize the trip until they arrive.
Assuming his identity as the top Buddyfighter in 8th grade at Aibo Academy, Rouga challenges Gao to a Buddyfight, but Gao refuses. Rouga slips on a banana peel set up by Tetsuya and Asmodai , which prompts him to challenge Tetsuya, which Asmodai accepts (without Tetsuya's consent). During lunch break, while Rouga and Tetsuya battle, Gao is reminded about a time when he also believed that winning was everything like Rouga. When Gao's hunger for winning led to him injuring someone during a martial arts match, he realized that mentality is wrong. Gao has since then changed in order to make more friends.
Gao Mikado, wants to participate in the ABC Buddy Cup, but he needs to find a team first. Meanwhile, Noboru Kodo meets a mysterious old man.
Tasuku tries to convince his fellow Buddy Police members that Rouga is the criminal Wolf, but everyone says there is not enough evidence to prove it. Moreover, Commander I believes Wolf is not working alone and that Aibo Academy may be connected in the grand scheme of things. Meanwhile, at Aibo Academy, Magoroku, the school's student council president, and Sophia Sakharov, the vice-president, review all of the fighters who will be participating in the ABC Cup, including Gao, Tetsuya, Noboru (who recently became buddies with Dragon Knight, El Quixote), and especially Zanya Kisaragi, who was the only elementary student to have defeated the middle school students in the last ABC Cup.
To conquer Gao Mikado's weakness, both Baku Omori and Kuguru Uki suggest him to construct a new deck. However, Gao disagrees with the idea. At the same time, Jin Magatsu from the middle school stole Gao's deck!
Noboru goes to the Buddy Police headquarters to void his contract with El Quixote and be done with Buddyfighting. Suddenly, the alarm sounds due to the appearance of the criminal Akaoni Kanme, prompting Tasuku and Takihara to apprehend him. Noboru is invited by Commander I into the Buddy Police's main room where he not only watches Tasuku defeat and arrest Akaoni, but he also learns about Tasuku's past. Noboru then runs off, frustrated at himself for not being special like Tasuku or Gao. Nonetheless, he gets encouragement from El Quixote who tells him to do what he wants to do, regardless of what others may say.
