Blader djlast time on "beyblade"...

Reiji, an unknown blader from the dark nebula,

Meets up with hyoma

In the battle bladers tournament.

Hyoma and reiji launch their beys serpent and aries

And the battle begins.

Hyoma battles hard,

But soon finds that the serpent of reiji

Is a dangerous bey to tangle with,

Literally.

As his friends watch in shock,

Hyoma and his bey are subjected to a dark move -

The venom strike - by reiji.

Hyoma battles hard,

But his aries is no match for serpent

And he goes down to devastating defeat.

The next match is even tougher

As ryuga takes on hikaru.

Hikaru and storm aquario prove to be no match

For ryuga and l-drago

And hikaru loses in devastating fashion.

The g*ng rushes to her side,

But are they too late to save her!

♪♪♪

Filled with chills, spills and tons 'o thrills,

The first round is over!

The eight bladers moving on to the second round

Have all been decided!

(Cheering) yeah-ha-ha! Woo-hoo!

Let's take a look-see boo at the battle pairings

For the second round, shall we?!

And here they are!

Benkei versus kenta!

Ryutaro versus tsubasa!

Reiji versus gingka!

And ryuga who, moments ago,

Mercilessly defeated hikaru

With unstoppable power and strength,

Will be taking on kyoya!

(Crowd cheers)

So, let's take a break now!

Seems there was a bit of damage to the stadium in that round,

But no biggie blade fans!

Crowd(cheering)

All(sighing)

Madoka! How's hikaru?

Is she gonna be all right?

Mm-hm.

The tournament organizers are looking after her

So she should be fine.

All we can do now is wait.

Oh, I see...

Kentafirst hyoma, and now this happens to hikaru?

I can't believe it.

Gingkabelieve it!

The dark nebula bites!

And ryuga,

It looks like he's gotten even stronger than before.

(Growls) but how can we fight against an opponent like that?

It's not just ryuga.

There's another...

The poison serpent, reiji.

Allhuh?

Benkeii can't stand that there's another guy like that

In the dark nebula organization!

As if ryuga wasn't bad enough, now we have reiji?

Tsubasaone thing's for sure...

Neither of them are going to be defeated very easily.

Allhmm...

Oh!

Hey, hey, hey, you guys!

Wait just a minute!

What're you doing getting all bummed out before the battle!

Come on, benkei! Cheer up, dude!

Say "bu-bu-bu-bull!"

Benkeii'm not even sure if that will help.

Gingkadon't worry about us, madoka.

We've known from the start

That we'd be facing a total menace as an opponent!

That's why we've trained so hard.


Kyoyawe're not giving up now.

Kentahmph! The best thing for us

Is to keep fighting with all we've got...

Right to the end!

Gingkaright on!

We knew this was no cake walk

And we'd have to spin with all our might one day!

Benkeioh! Y-yeah! Now you're talkin'!

Whether it's ryuga or anyone else,

He better watch out for old benkei...

Uh, uh, (laughs) I mean, the next one to fight him!

Good old kyoya will show him who's boss!

(Chuckles)

Kyoyatsk, sure, he's as good as fired.

All(laugh)

Gingkakyoya?

Yeah?

We need to even the score for hyoma.

I'm counting on you to win the next match.

Hmph.

Hm...

Blader djand the first match goes to b-b-benkei!

Tobiono this can't be!

This just can't be happening!

Aggghhhh!

Yikes!

(Disappointed groans)

So very unimpressive.

I think it's high time

They each were taught a little lesson.

(Sound outside) hmm...

Yuhuh? No one's here either? (Sighs)

What is it that you want?

Oh, nothing much.

I was looking for someone to battle with,

But I can't find anyone around here.

This place is totally deserted.

Man, I'd even battle that crab guy.

Even though you lost in the first round,

You seem to be in a pretty good mood.

What's that? Big deal!

I don't really care about that at all.

That stuff just kinda happens sometimes,

You know, what I mean mister?

I don't see it that way, my friend.

The tournament is over for you,

So why would you want to battle anymore?

Huh?

Because beyblade is fun!

Did you say fun?

(Giggles) ever since I had my match with gingka,

I've just been pumped to compete -

Win or lose!

Oh?

Yessiree,

Right now I just really, really wanna battle.

Is that so?

The truth is,

You really don't know the first thing about beyblade,

Do you?

Hm? I do so! I want to battle!

That may be.

However, I still think you need us

To teach you something worthwhile about beyblade.

What do you mean "us"?

Reijithe regret, sorrow, and fear of beyblade.

Huh?

(Frightened grunt)

(Laughs)

Wh-who are you?! I don't know you.

(Laughs)

(Frightened whimper)

Ungh!

What's the big idea?! That really hurt!

Kumade brothers(distressed) ahhhhhhhhhh!

Yuhuh? Ahhhh!

(Roars)

(Beys shatter)

Ahhh! Orso!

Kumata and kumajiahhhh! Big bro!

Allahhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

Oof! Gahh! Urgh!

Ryuga(insane laughter)

(Laughing)

Even with all three of you together,

That's the best you can do?

(Laughing)

Tetsuyayikes! What are you doing, crab?

(Whimpering)

Dojiha!

Wh-what's going on here? I don't get it.

It is the fate of those who have been defeated.

Hmm...

(Groaning in pain)

Those guys don't look good.

Why?!

Dojiwhy what?

We pledged our loyalty to the dark nebula organization.

So why do you treat us so badly? What is this?

Naturally, we have to make those who lose at battle bladers


Of some use to ryuga.

Surely you didn't expect to fail

And then just sit around here reading comic books.

The losers become food for the dragon.

Did you say food? (Groans)

Real nice!

Treating our beys like food after we lose just once!

You're a class act, pal!

Ryugais it making you angry?

Tobiowhat did you say?

Ryugaare you really, really mad?

If you are, then show me that attitude now!

Yes, all of it!

That negative spirit - the power of your anger -

Is exactly what l-drago desires!

Don't push me, pal!

Ryugaif you can make even one scratch on l-drago,

I'll let you go.

Doesn't that sound like a good deal?

Grrr. Okay, fine! Let's do this!

I'm the guy they call the one sh*t wonder,

Heard of me?!

Don't mess with me!

Wait! Stop, crab! Stop!

At times like this,

It's best not to encourage the opponent!

Okay, eye-patched crabby guy?!

The ones in the wrong are we, the losers,

My crabby friend.

Mr. Ryuga is quite right to be angry.

I'll work harder

And do whatever it takes, crab.

Now, let's just turn the page,

Okay, crab? I mean, mr. Ryuga.

You're not gonna get outta this that way!

Crawl out of your shell and get ready to fight!

Right now?

Let it rip!

Wahhhhh!

Now, now you can't blame me for what happens, crab.

(Singsong) let it rip!

Here we go!

Capricorn, special move! Spin screwdriver!

(Bey bounces)

(Bleats)

Hmph!

L-drago!

(Energy crackles)

Ahhhhhh!

Ahhhh!

Ahh-ahh-ahh-ahhhhhhh!

Ahhhhhhhh!

(Moaning in pain)

Hmph! That didn't even begin to curb my hunger.

T-that was awful...

Dojiryutaro!

Huh? Yeah?

Dojiyou were lucky to have survived the first round.

But how will you fare after the results

Of the second round?

Huh?

If you do not want to end up like them,

Then you better keep winning.

Don't give me that nonsense!

Even if I keep winning,

Eventually I will have to face ryuga.

Isn't that right, doji?

What have you got in store for me

When that time comes?

When that time comes... Hmm, I wonder? Oh yes!

(Gasps) you phony!

You were planning to use our power for food

From the very start!

But not me, right? Not me!

It's not true.

Ryuga wouldn't!

Ryuga would never betray me! Never!

It doesn't make any sense.

Ryuga's my friend, see? He's my best friend!

Oh, I don't think that's the case at all.

Wha?

Hmm... It's unfortunate, but...

Beneath a king, all others are the same;

None of them matter.

And I'm afraid the same goes for you.

You're absolutely no different.

B-but...but...

Reijibut before that, I need your help.

(Chuckles)

You don't mind helping me with my warm-up,

Do you, little buddy?

Warm up?

Just forget it! I don't want to help you!

Don't be like that.

Huh?

Don't you get it, huh?! You're mine now, okay?

(Whimpering)

Reiji(laughing)

(Groans)

Dojilet me say this first.


If you win against reiji, we will let you go.

Hm...

You will be free to stay in the dark nebula organization,

Or leave it.

It will be entirely your choice.

Yuhmph! I don't need you to give me permission;

I've always been free! Got it?

And there's no way

I'm gonna lose to this guy anyway.

(Laughs) I like your spunk.

But you shouldn't take reiji lightly.

After all, he's the most perfect blader

That the dark nebula organization has created.

(Laughing)

Dojiand he is the only one, other than ryuga,

Who uses a dark move.

What do ya mean "dark move"?

(Laughing)

It is the proof that he is a dark nebula organization's

True number two.

Three!

Ahhh...

Two!

One!

Bothlet it rip!

Oh man, I can't stand this guy!

I'm gonna finish this right away!

Libra, sonic buster!

(Energy pulsates)

Huh?

Ahhhhhhhh! H-how did he do that?

(Laughs) do you think there are any snakes

That can't move across sand?

Actually, sand is more like their home turf.

How does it feel

To be caught in the sand trap that you made yourself?

Grrrr... Libra!

Wha? Huh?!

What? If that's all the power you've got,

You can't win against libra!

Now it's my turn!

That's the way! Go now, libra!

(Laughs)

All right! I'll decide this with the next hit!

(Bey whooshes)

Huh? What happened?

Ha! It looks like the poison has taken effect.

(Chewing loudly)

Madokayou guys sure you have enough burgers over there?

Benkeii have to store up energy.

I gotta carbo-load for the next battle,

It's important!

Gingkaattaboy! Load it up, benkei!

Especially since my next opponent is kenta!

Kentaoh!

Madokahey... That's right, isn't it?

Battling with benkei...

I'm really looking forward to it.

I won't go easy

Just because it's you, benkei old buddy!

I know, of course not.

I'm gonna fight with all I've got, too!

And no matter who wins, we'll act like true bladers!

Kentaall right! Let's do our best, benkei!

Benkeibu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bull!

Suddenly I'm feeling pumped up!

Kyoyawhere are you going?

Huh?

None of your business.

I have absolutely no interest in getting to know you guys

Any more then I have to, understand?

Hmph! Well, I don't really care where you go

Or what you do,

To tell you the truth.

But if someone were trying to interfere

With my match against ryuga...

Well, I hope you'd understand that...

I just couldn't allow that to happen.

It's still not too late for you.

Just stand down from your next battle.

What did you say?!

Tsubasayou've seen ryuga's overwhelming power,

Haven't you?

Kyoyaso, what about it?

I know what I'm up against

And I'm ready for it, understand?

So, what are you trying to say?!

What if you end up like hikaru, huh?

That won't happen!

How do you know that?!

I just can't stand by

And watch anyone else fall prey to ryuga,

I can't!

Hmph.

So, you were planning to b*at me to it

And go battle ryuga yourself,

Is that it?

Hmm.

Well, forget it. Hm?

What you have in mind is an insult to not just me,


But to the whole concept of beyblade!

Huh? To beyblade?

No matter how strong an opponent is,

I'll face them head-on, I'll hold nothing back!

Even if I'm putting all I have on the line,

So be it.

That's what it means to be a blader.

Oh...

I understand.

Yes, you're right.

Then you better start training harder;

You have to stay sharp.

Because, if you win your battle,

Your next opponent is me!

You sure know who you are, huh?

I'll be waitin' for you at the semi-finals.

Hm... Yeah, good luck.

(Bey whooshes)

Yulibra's movements are strange.

I'm not sure what's happening?

Could this be because of serpent's poison?

Oh...

(Maniacal laughter)

But libra won't be defeated by that kind of att*ck.

I guess the dark nebula organization's number two

Is waiting for a sleep out?

Could be.

Even now, poison serpent's poison

Is working its way through libra.

If you do nothing, if you don't try to att*ck,

You will definitely end up with a "sleep out."

Grrrr! Tell me something I don't know snakey!

Libra, sonic wave!

Whoa! What?!

Libra's shock blast had no effect at all?

It seems that you still do not understand...

Reiji, please.

It's about time for you to explain it to him.

(Evil laughter)

Hyaaaaa!!

Ahhhhh!

Dodge it, libra!

What's wrong, libra?

Move now!

This is... This is crazy!

What gives?

I told you already, didn't i?

Libra is already being affected

By serpent's poison, understand?

I don't believe that! You're making that up!

You can do it, libra!

Special move!

(Bey whooshes)

That's it!

Goooo!

Libra, inferno blast!

It can't be!

Libra, one more time!

Huh... B-but why?

"Why," you say? (Laughs)

Don't you understand what those are down there?

They're fragments of libra's parts

That serpent has broken off.

Ha! What do you mean libra's parts?

How could that happen?

Even a tiny fragment is a fatal wound for a bey.

Its loss causes the bey to lose its balance

And its power is gradually drained away.

It's as if a snake's poison were circulating

Through its entire body.

(Gasps)

Your special move is a technique

That uses supersonic vibrations in the air

To att*ck an opponent.

You see those small wounds disrupt the vibrations

That libra usually creates.

Yuoh...

Reijithe reality is...

Yuhuh?

Without using my full strength,

Your power has been completely drained.

That's the taste of sadness.

Of sadness?

(Bey whooshes)

Oh no! Libra!

Seeing your precious bey cut up right before your eyes

Can't be fun.

This is true sorrow!

Stop it! Stop it right now!

(Sobs)

Next for you...

Ahhh!

This is fear!

I'll give you a good taste -

Of my dark move, that is!

(Gasps)

Serpent! Venom strike!

(Hissing)

(Laughing)

Is this the end now, yu?


What do you say?!

Stop! Stop it!

That's enough already!

(Crying)

Someone... Someone help me!

Huh?

Hmm...

Oh...

Hmph!

(Gasps)

Ryuga...

(Sobbing)

(Bey whooshes)

This isn't... This isn't any fun at all!

I've had enough of this!

(Sobs) this stinks!

This isn't the beyblade that gingka taught me about!

Let's battle again sometime.

Gingka...

(Laughs)

Well, shall I put an end to this now?

That's right.

I didn't join the dark nebula organization

So I could have battles like this.

I've always been free, you hear me!

So let's not give up!

Try just one more time for me...

Libra!

(Whooshing)

Agh!

Oh!

Grrrrr!

Ahhhhhhh!

Ahhhhhh!
