Mikhail leaves thereafter, before warning Shu that the fate of the world lies in the choices he and his friends make. Back with Logi's duel with the mysterious woman, she states that he was not qualified and in a flash sets Logi and Albarose ablaze. Watching from a distance were two tightly cloaked characters. Feeling the need to gather the previous partners being shadow users, Shu takes Bouquet and Noi to Marumaro's village to awaken Marumaro's shadow Saber Tiger. But starting out on a wrong foot sets Noi and Marumaro at each other's throats. To settle their differences Shu has Marumaro and Noi compete in different sporting events like arm wrestling, racing, and other events. When it comes to a card game, Noi wins and uses his Tousen Kyuden to awaken Saber Tiger. The Investiture Beings are in their meeting and have elected Shu as the World's Representative. Mikhail leaves to watch over Shu's progress.

Arriving in a local town, Shu recalls about his attempts to Jiro and Kluke to help him. This causes Marumaro to become concern and Bouquet to feel neglected. Marumaro ends up encountering dancing sisters Donna and Reina. When Marumaro brings them to Shu to cheer him up, the sisters end up dancing with Shu and Noi until Bouquet arrives getting into an argument with Shu. The sisters break from Noi and end up sucking the life out of Shu and Bouquet. Donna and Reina then perform while sucking the life out of some of the townspeople. Marumaro ends up deciding to correct this problem and obtaining Noi's help. Donna and Reina recall when they used to be down and out until Mikhail arrived and gave them Dragon Scales to make them more beautiful. This also caused them to absorb the energy of jealous people. When Donna and Reina leave, Marumaro and Noi emerge from their hiding spots as Noi tells Marumaro that Donna and Reina have the crests of the Dragon Scale on their necks. Marumaro and Noi end up disguising themselves as one person so that Marumaro can use his shadow power to deactivate the Dragon Scales starting with Reina. It doesn't go well when their disguise eventually fails. Marumaro ends up enticed by their beauty until Noi ends up not showing off his jealousy. Donna and Reina end up attempting to entice Noi with their beauty making Marumaro jealous. When Donna and Reina end up trying to absorb Marumaro's jealousy energy, Noi ends up biting Reina. Using Saber Tiger, Marumaro ends up driving the Dragon Scales out of Donna and Reina. Once the Dragon Scales were destroyed, those that they have drained energy from were restored. As Shu starts to regain his energy, he finds out that the name of the girl that has been appearing in his dreams is Primella. He ends up waking up alongside Bouquet. With Donna and Reina still unconscious with Noi stating that they won't remember a thing, Shu, Bouquet, Marumaro, and Noi take their leave. Shu finds out that Marumaro had been worried about him and Bouquet. Shu and Bouquet then end up in another argument revolving around what happened between him and Donna and Reina.

General Logi's base is attacked by White Guardians. Kluke, Marumaro, Bouquet, and Andropov unleash their shadows. Kluke has Andropov use Alubujem to locate Shu who is still fighting the White Guardian soldiers in his area. When the others catch up, Shu comes up with a plan. Noi assumes his dragon form and merges with Shu while Bouquet and Hippopotamus merge with Saber Tiger. General Logi unleashes his giant exo-suit soldiers to help fight the White Guardians. The White Guardians' air force starts to turn the tides against giant exo-suits. Delphinium and Deathroy continue their infiltration until they are teleported outside by Matilda and Zephyrus. Meanwhile at their floating city, the Investiture Beings discuss about the war between the White Guardians and the forces of Rosekstan. As the battle rages on, Kluke uses Phoenix's ability to teleport her, Marumaro and the Bouquet/Saber Tiger, and some White Guardian soldiers away from Shu and the Noi/Blue Dragon. Jiro and Xie arrive and join the battle. Meanwhile, Deathroy unleashes Chimera against Matilda and Zephyrus. Vermillion confronts Shu and the Noi/Blue Dragon and starts to attack. As White Guardian soldiers charge toward General Logi's hideout, they are attacked by General Logi and Odin.

At Rosekstan, Primella has a vision of a three-way battle between the White Guardian, Shu, and Fagino and a vision where Lotarus kills Kluke in a flower field. Meanwhile, Shu and the Noi/Blue Dragon and Marumaro and the Bouquet/Saber Tiger are in combat with Hildegard. Hildegard then assumes his dragon form as the Noi/Blue Dragon goes after him. Though Hildegard gets away. At a Rosekstan base, General Logi thinks back to the battle against the White Guardians when Matilda enters telling Logi that Delphinium and Deathroy have surrendered to them. Shu, Bouquet, Marumaro, and Noi arrive in a nearby town where they notice a factory. Back at Rosekstan's base, Delphinium is being interrogated by Captain Varenko.
