While eating lunch in a sidewalk café, Tyson and Daichi have their beyblades stolen by a young pickpocket and together they scouring the streets for the culprit. Tyson meanwhile, exhibits his first real sympathy for his diminutive teammate, and vows to go easier on him. Just as the pair are about to give up the search, Tyson hears the unmistakable sounds of Dragoon coming from a nearby alley. There, they find the boy who robbed them using Dragoon to battle Rick of the PPB All Starz in a street match. Rick wins and prepares to leave with his stolen bounty. Tyson and Daichi try to convince Rick to give back their blades, but Rick will only return them if they defeat him in a match. The three bladers engage in battle, with Tyson and Daichi tag-teaming Rick. Rick is on the verge of defeating them when a surprise fourth blader jumps in – Max. The match ends in a draw, and Rick leaves empty-handed. Max vows to try and improve his relationship with Rick, who's his PPB All Starz teammate.
