Summary[]

The regional tournament begins. Team Quadrifoglio (four-leaf-clover, Q4 for short), consisting of Aichi , Kamui , Kai and the absent Misaki, has to face Team Three Blacks in the first round. Misaki's absence means that Aichi will have to participate, and in the first match, too! Aichi's fight does not go well. His opponent appears to use the same clan as Kai, the Kagero, but with many new units. When he Superior Rides Demonic Dragon Berserker, Yaksha and uses several skills to retire all of Aichi's rear guards, Aichi panics, realizing that even if he rides Alfred, he cannot use his ability.
