Plot Summary
Three days have past since Artemis ended. We learn that four guards were killed watching over Metanus GX, and that the police are looking for clues as to whom the culprit is. The kids practice with their LBX's planning to go on a rescue mission to reclaim Metanus GX, but they do not want to make a move until they are able to confirm the location it's being held at. Meanwhile Jin has taken over watching Yuuya and he begins to question his grandfather's involvement in the entire ordeal as Yuuya lies in a coma. We learn that Jin and Yuuya were both the lone survivors in their families in the tragic Tokio Bridge collapse that also took Yagami's family. Shortly after the bridge collapse Jin was adopted by Yoshimitsu and become a Kaido. When his grandfather refuses to answer why he programmed The Emperor Mk 2 to self-destruct and why he killed the guards Jin decides to rebel. Jin secretly goes to Cyber Lance to become a test player for their new generation of LBX's. He is given control of Proto Zenon, and the controller he will use has more memory than any other control. It also increases the combat range from 100m to 1 km. Elsewhere Ban visits the warehouse where Lex trained him on the Super Plasma Burst. Surprisingly Lex appears and gives Ban the Platinum Capsule. He reveals the Platinum Capsule the Innovators stole was a fake. Ban contacts his allies, but on the way to Tiny Orbit the Innovators surround the car they are traveling in hoping to steal the real Platinum Capsule.
