Sakuma employs the forbidden Koutei Penguin 1gou, causing severe pain, while Kidou warns that repeated use risks permanent injury. Raimon attempts to block the attack, but Sakuma insists victory justifies the risk. The first half ends with Raimon failing to stop the technique. In the second half, Fubuki scores with Eternal Blizzard after a pass from Someoka. Fudou injures Someoka, who remains on the field despite his leg injury. Sakuma uses Koutei Penguin 1gou a third time but is stopped by Someoka, causing him to collapse. The match ends in a tie. Kageyama reveals Kidou as his creation, and Onigawara kidnaps Kidou via helicopter. Sakuma thanks Kidou, while Coach Hitomiko defends her ruthless approach to winning.
