Kenshiro and his friends are ambushed in the desert by airborne Blackbirds commanded by Mahari and the Gold Wolf forces led by Garekki. In Southern Cross, Saki's elder brother, Temjina, is punished because Saki helped Yuria, but later escapes to tell Ken of its location. The airborne Blackbirds attack Ken and his friends while the Gold Wolf forces prepares to attack Jina, but stop for a 3-hour lunch break. Ken eventually destroys the Blackbirds and the Gold Wolf forces. Temjina finally arrives to give Ken clues to the location of Southern Cross and Yuria just before he dies from injuries inflicted by Shin's men.
