9

Saruhiko releases a former U-rank member of JUNGLE, Douhan Hirasaka, from her prison cell and tells her to flee the place with him, after hearing she was only in it for the money anyway. Meanwhile, Kurou is tailed by members of the Green Clan, who try to snap pictures of him in order to increase their points. Suddenly a car is bursting into flames and a fire hydrant heats up and is starting to release water after being touched by a man. Soon after, the news are reporting about people developing unnatural powers throughout the Kanto region. It is revealed that the Green Clan is behind this, using the Dresden Slates. The Green Clan also notices Hirasaka and Saruhiko being quite active gathering points, the latter even over 90,000 which they believe is a result of Saruhiko cheating. Shiro is thinking of ideas how to get the Slates back and comes up with a special countermeasure named Resonance Hammer Effect. Seri and Izumo dress up and visit a party held by the Green Clan. There, they manage to steal one of the party guest's mobile phone, but are being chased throughout the building soon after. The mobile is destroyed by one of the Green Clan's members, soon to be revealed as Saruhiko who then gains 3,000 points, reaching J-rank and even surpassing Sukuna's level. Saruhiko then is escaping through the floor with help from Hirasaka and meeting with Yukari who then invites him to the Green Clan's hideout, where he encounters Nagare, Iwa and Sukuna. When asked why he joined, Saruhiko's answer is because he just wanted to see what happens when he reaches a high rank, and is quite disappointed that there's only "a sushi party" as reward. Nagare replies that their plan is just set into action and that he wants to count on Saruhiko as a member of the Green Clan. (Source: Wikipedia)
