Dr. D and Republican officers launch two Storm Sworders, piloted by Rosso and Viola, who steal the units to find Rudolph. Meanwhile, Van, Fiona, and Zeze take a risky route to Guygalos City, splitting from Irvine, Moonbay, and Rudolph. Rudolph secretly joins Van, leading to a confrontation with Major Karl Schubaltz and black Redlers at an Imperial base. Karl recognizes Rudolph but is restrained by his superiors. Van struggles against the attackers until the Storm Sworders intervene, destroying the Redlers. Karl sacrifices the base to allow Van’s escape. Van reunites with Irvine and Moonbay, where Irvine claims victory in their earlier dispute over the route, only for Irvine to strangle Van again when Van disagrees with his leadership.
