Plot
Gingka Hagane happily gets his prized "triple-beef burger" from a restaurant. He is happy about this because it was supposed to be the last one.

Meanwhile, Benkei Hanawa is angry and wants to be able to defeat Gingka by training alone in his warehouse remembering Kyoya's loss to Gingka. Just then, Daidouji comes and tells him that Kyoya Tategami has gone to a training facility in the Dark Nebula Castle in order to become stronger and if Benkei wants to beat Gingka, he'll have to use a new Beyblade, Dark Bull H145 SD. Benkei takes it and vows to use Dark Bull to beat Gingka for good.

Benkei has a flashback of when he first met Kyoya. Back then, Kyoya thought Benkei was too weak for him. Benkei and Kyoya then had a Beybattle. Kyoya won but Benkei asked for a rematch. After many rematches, Kyoya kept on winning. Although, he turned happy knowing that someone finally was able to defeat him and promises to follow Kyoya and become a better Blader.

Kenta Yumiya and Akira are having a Beyblade battle which Kenta wins when Gingka returns with his burger. However he complains that his burger is not there and that it was actually a hot dog. Madoka then teaches Kenta and his friends about the different types of Beyblades. Attack-Types are high on attack power. Defense-Types specialize in defending themselves against attacks. Stamina-Types are used to out-spin a Beyblade to win, and Balance-Types offer an even mix of Attack, Defense and, Stamina. They are amazed by this and battle again.

Benkei defeats 10 other Face Hunters Beyblades with his Dark Bull. He works hard due to him wanting to beat Gingka so he may go on and bring back Kyoya. While Kenta and his friends Beybattle, Benkei and the Face Hunters confront them and challenge them to a Beybattle. Kenta then tells Gingka about this.

Gingka, Kenta and, Madoka go to an old dock and find mysterious bull-shaped holes in the walls. Suddenly, Benkei reveals himself and tells them that his Bey, Dark Bull made the holes. Benkei challenges Gingka to a Beybattle and accepts, although Madoka warns Gingka of Bull's strength.

Gingka's Storm Pegasus and Benkei's Dark Bull begin to fight. They both fight well, as Benkei proves his Bull is strong. Despite Gingka trying to hold on, it proves too much for him. Rocks start to fall off the ceiling and some are headed for Gingka. However, Benkei pushes Gingka out of the way and saves him.

Gingka then unleashes Pegasus' special move and strikes Bull with so much force that it defeats him. Despite Benkei losing, Gingka congratulates him, stating that he has a lot of power and it was a really fun battle and offers Benkei a handshake. Benkei refuses, stating that he only wanted to defeat him and leaves.

Later, at the restaurant, Gingka finally gets his burger and enjoys it. They talk about Benkei, feeling confused why he saved Gingka and wonder where he left to. However, Benkei is seen eating in the same restaurant eating a burger. He vows to defeat Gingka, but then accidentally bites his fingers when eating the burger and screams.
