Synopsis
On the Bey Cruise, the next challenge is announced; tag-team battles! The challenge will use the demerit system. The losing team will lose a Beystar. Pairing up will be Ranjiro and Suoh against Bogard and Kyle, as well as, Fubuki and Aiga against Laban and Houi. Since Phi won the last battle, he does not need to participate. The boys must learn to work together as a team. Ranjiro worries about Suoh, and he should be. Suoh thinks he can beat Bogard and Kyle by himself as long as Ranjiro stays out of his way. Gumita tries to sweet talk Suoh, but he is one mean son of a "bleep". Ranjiro's isn't the only team not getting along. Seems Houi is only interested in defeating Aiga, and in practice it appears that Bogard is just supplying Kyle (and Phi) with more and more information.
The 1st battle begins with Ranjiro, Suoh, Bogard, and Kyle taking the stage. Ranjiro comes out strong with his Ragnaruk Typhoon taking the center. The evil Suoh, however, pushes him out of the way leaving him open to a burst by Xcalibur. Suoh gets what is coming to him when Bogard slams him with his fifth impact sending Salamander crashing against the wall. Xhan and Kyle's team wins.
The second battle begins with Aiga, Fubuki, Laban, and Houi. Hercules is burst fairly quickly with Aiga's Z slash. With Houi out of it, Laban takes control going after Aiga. The two beys collide and spin is unison. Fubuki uses this opportunity to send in Forneus, and his bey does the job by bursting both Leopard and Achilles.
After the tag-team battles the Beystars stand at; Phi with four, Aiga, Bogard, & Kyle have three, Fubuki, Laban have two, finally Houi, Suoh, Ranjiro have one. Who will be left to battle Valt? Time will tell.
