Eventually, Yuujirou
himself also arrives by helicopter. Gaia also arrives with him, who is beaten and kneels in front of the Ogre in act of respect to him. It turns out that shortly before Yuujirou arrived, Gaia decided to attack the Ogre and fight him. Baki and Yuujirou's battle starts with a sudden earthquake. Baki's father stops it by hitting the ground, and then everyone is extremely astonished. Baki does his best in the battle, but it turns out that he has no chance at all. His attacks do not make any effect against Yuujirou, even
when he uses his Roll Kick trick. Nevertheless, the Ogre is very satisfied with his son's combat level. At some point, Baki's body is crushed into the ground and Yuujirou begins to bombard him with a series of blows to his face when the young fighter is lying unconscious. When he's almost killed by his own father, Emi enters the duel. For the first time, she
defends her son and attacks Yuujirou with her fist, stopping him from further attacks towards their son.

And the villain, Dante. We don't know her motives (except maybe jealousy?) or her goals.
