Plot[]
As Tyson, Kai, Max, Kenny, and Ray fly to Hong Kong to prepare for the Asian Tournament, Kai "quits" the team and walks into the streets.

The rest of the team try to follow him and fail when they hear a Bey spinning, and find the back-alley Blader named Bruce challenging them to a battle.

Trivia[]
- The original series show a preview of the next episode after the end of each episode. In this episode 8, the preview of episode 9 shows Sacred Beast Garman (bit-beast Galman) with a different color than the one that it actually comes to have in episode 9. Furthermore, a glow obfuscates Max in the preview, also differently from the actual episode.
