Synopsis

The Bladebreakers explore Paris some more while Kai leaves and trains on his own once again. Max goes to a library and sees a magazine about the kid they had met at the end of the last episode, whose name is Olliver. He learns Olliver is a master Beyblader. Ray goes to a French restaurant and sees an award with Olliver's picture on it, and a chef explains that Olliver is a master chef as well. Tyson and Kenny meet up with Olliver, and Olliver shows them around through a museum that he rented out. Tyson and Kenny sit down to a feast prepared by Olliver, and Tyson challenges Olliver to a Beyblade battle. Olliver remarks how he would never want to battle a rookie, but decides to accept anyway. Kenny and Tyson go with Olliver to the middle of a park, as Olliver explains that he likes to be surrounded by beauty when he battles. The battle begins and Tyson holds his own against Olliver for a while. However, Olliver's Bit Beast Unicolyon, a white, unicorn Bit Beast emerges and attacks Dragoon, dealing powerful damage. Tyson notices that Unicolyon is even bigger than Robert's Griffolyon. Ray and Max meet up and see that a battle is happening in the park, and run to the scene of the battle, cheering Tyson on. Kai watches from behind a tree. Tyson refuses to lose another battle to a giant Bit Beast and keeps going, though the odds are against him. Tyson uses Dragoon's Storm attack, but Olliver counters it. As a last ditch effort, Tyson uses all his willpower and directs it into a massive attack against Olliver's Beyblade. Olliver's Beyblade and Tyson's Beyblade leave the arena at the same time, and the match is declared a draw. Olliver becomes angry and leaves, and Tyson is disappointed that he lost. However, he feels that in Rome, their next destination, he will win any battle.
