Saruhiko frees Douhan Hirasaka from prison, prompting her to flee with him. Meanwhile, Kurou is pursued by Green Clan members seeking photos to gain points. A man triggers a fire hydrant, leading to news reports of unnatural powers emerging across the Kanto region. The Green Clan is revealed to be using Dresden Slates for this purpose. Noticing Saruhiko and Hirasaka accumulating points, with Saruhiko exceeding 90,000, they suspect cheating. Shiro devises the Resonance Hammer Effect to recover the Slates. Seri and Izumo infiltrate a Green Clan party, stealing a guest's phone before being chased. Saruhiko destroys the phone, gaining 3,000 points to reach J-rank, surpassing Sukuna. Escaping with Hirasaka, Saruhiko meets Yukari and visits the Green Clan hideout. There, he encounters Nagare, Iwa, and Sukuna. Saruhiko admits he joined to see the outcome of high ranks, only to be disappointed by the sushi party reward. Nagare confirms their plan is active and values Saruhiko as a new member.
