At the beginning of the episode, the Kingdom of Science is on high alert, preparing for a decisive confrontation with Ibara and his forces. The team led by Senku is determined to eliminate Ibara and reclaim the statue of the master, despite being outnumbered.
The Kingdom of Science employs various tactics, including the use of magnesium to create a blinding light that disorients the enemy. Magma, fueled by raw strength, becomes a central figure in the battle.
Meanwhile, Ibara forces the villagers onto the Perseus and plans to deploy the Medusa on a massive scale. The Kingdom of Science splits into teams to thwart this plan: one group focuses on retrieving the master’s statue, while the other devises a diversion.
The episode unfolds as Hyoga, previously petrified, is revived by the Kingdom of Science. Hyoga’s presence shifts the dynamics of the fight, as he possesses formidable combat skills.
Gen crafts a scheme to manipulate Moz, another powerful enemy warrior, into believing Hyoga is on their side. This strategy involves Nikki pretending to be in love with Hyoga—a task she carries out reluctantly.
The episode intensifies as Hyoga weighs whether to join the Kingdom of Science or Moz. The climax arrives when Hyoga decides to side with the Kingdom of Science, leading to a fierce battle against Moz. Recognizing the gravity of the situation, the Kingdom of Science resolves to return to the island to retrieve something crucial for their victory.
The episode ends with everything at stake: Ibara plans to petrify the entire island. The Kingdom of Science races against time to stop him, setting the stage for an intense showdown over control of the Medusa.
