Bey News announces an exceptional blader who is moving up quickly in the Longinus Cup. His name is Houi Oh. He is not only famous for archery, but he is showing his incredible skills in Beyblade as well. Oh Houi is the blader most expected to win.
Seeing how Suoh defeated both Boss and Aiga, Tokonatsu is worried about his upcoming battle with him. Toko's bey, Screw Trident, is a stamina type, who's greatest weapon is to turn oncoming attacks into spin speed so he needs to get to the center first. He goes to Fubuki for training.
Meanwhile Aiga in strengthening his muscles on his bey training machine. He sees Tokonatsu jogging by. Wonders if Toko would practice with him. Aiga explains that Toko doesn't need to be afraid of Suoh and his bey. Salamander can swap between attack and defense. When its in attack mode, defense and stamina become its weakness. And when in defense mode, attack power is its weakness. Ranjiro shows up and joins in their practice.
The next day at the tournament, Ranjiro, Aiga, and Fubuki make it past the second round. It's time for Tokonatsu to battle Suoh! The first match was a draw spin finish. The 2nd match, however, ends in a Trident burst. Suoh Goshuin's personality did a 180, and he used "Wrath of the Flaming Tornado" attack. Even though Tokonatsu lost, he was happy that he was able to pull a draw against the powerful Suoh.
The next morning Aiga awakes to find Houi cleaning. He wants to be friends with Aiga. The two battle one another.
That evening, Aiga returns to his tent and lol' and behold "someone is sleeping in my bed!" Houi Oh has moved in.
