They have to defend their role to not be replaced by the Black Knights. Unfortunetly, they are losing the match. But Tenma arrives on the field, and tries to keep the ball so no one gets hurt.

After the Black Knights attacked Tenma, Shindou tries to convince the newcomer to give up. But the latter says words that give the captain hope.

But, the Black Knights (including Tsurugi) all retreat. Shindou faints shortly after.

Later, Shindou wakes up in a bed, with Kirino by his side. He asks what happened. Kirino tells him. Shindou tries to go find Tsurugi, but Kirino stops him, telling him that he's worried about him taking too much pressure.
