Plot[]
Beyblade: Metal Fury[]
Hunting for Legends[]
Johannes past is unknown, but he decided to become one of the seekers of Nemesis in order to bring on a new dawn of Beyblade. Looking to revive nemesis he tracked Yuki Mizusawa as he gathered Legendary Bladers such as Gingka Hagane. After finally confronting them Johannes reveals that he is looking to take Pegasus and use its Star Fragment in order to revive Nemesis. Gingka refuses to go with Johannes and decides to battle instead, Johannes looking to take it one way or another.
Clearly, Gingka has the base advantage in the upcoming battle but Johannes uses a combination of tricks in order to gain the upper-hand. First, he leads Gingka into a narrow space where his Pegasus cannot build up speed and overwhelms him with Lynx's higher track at its base height. Gingka escapes this but cannot gain the upper-hand because of Lynx's amazing balance when falling, always landing on its feet.
This is when Johannes reveals Lynx's track height change and gets the upper-hand on Gingka, but before he can finish it Kyoya Tategami intervenes. Johannes is shocked to learn that Kyoya has also become a Legendary Blader and retreats due to Fang Leone 130 W2D's new power, knowing that he cannot win a two on one battle. He then decides to follow the gang to China where he discovers that there may be a Legendary Blader among the Beylin Temple Bladers.
Johannes infiltrates the temple and attacks several bladers while beating all of beylin temple causing Johannes to mock them. He then gets caught by Gingka and his friends, including the Beylin temple leader; Dashan Wang. Gingka decides to battle Johannes but Dashan interrupts and goes on to battle him. Johannes agrees to battle to see if Dashan is a legendary blader. The two battle and Johannes struggles against Dashan's unique beyblade; Rock Zurafa R145WB which uses its rubber wings to repel Lynx.
Johannes finds a loophole in his attacks by using his Lynx's height change to battle back against Dashan. Dashan is able to maintain his lead in the battle and nearly defeats Johannes. Although Dashan is in fact an impressive beyblader, Johannes does not sense the presence of a star fragment in his beyblade and decides to retreat. Knowing that Dashan's not a legendary blader makes it obvious that no one else there is either, leading him to flee.
Johannes decides to search for a partner for the upcoming tag team tournament where a Legendary Blader is likely to be. He then spots the infamous "Crimson Flash" in action who he believes to be the legendary blader. Johannes finds a friend named Motti who shares his love for cats, then enters the ToRyumon Tag Team Tournament.
In the first round of the Tournament Johannes dominates his opponents alone, telling Motti to stay back while he wins. He then watches over the next matches to see if he can spot the crimson flash again but cannot. In the second round matches, Johannes is faced with Legendary Blader; Kyoya Tategami and his partner Benkei Hanawa. He tells Motti to stay back once again while he battles the fierce Lion like Blader.
He causes Kyoya to waste his energy by continuing to dodge his attacks until Kyoya takes a defensive stance. During the pause in the battle Johannes decides to attack but his attacks seem to be of no use, this is due to Kyoya's mastery of Leone's defense mode. Benkei then decides to attack Motti and nearly defeats her, to stop both he and Motti from losing Johannes attacks and knocks both Motti and Benkei from the stadium, allowing he and Kyoya to fight it out.
Kyoya decides to finish the battle by unleashing a giant tornado, but Johannes claims that this will do him no good. But unfortunately for Johannes the twister lifts Lynx off the ground and allows Kyoya to activate his new special move which also defeats Johannes and eliminates him from the ToRyumon tournament.
After the tournament he tries to recruit Aguma and Bao to his side by telling them how they got the star fragment. He and Bao battle for a little bit but Johaness stops the battle by promising to offer their dreams.
He is next seen at Dynamis' Temple, where he, along with the Beylin Fist trail Gingka and the others. He confronts the group eventually, taking on Nile, Benkei and Demure, tagging with Bao and the Beylin Fist with Aguma battling Kyoya. Both Nemesis bladers are defeated, and Gingka's friends manage to escape. Then, he meets the bladers at the summit of the mountain and tries to take on Dynamis, but cannot penetrate Jade Jupiter's defenses. They flee after hearing the tale of the legendary bladers from Dynamis.
Next, he is seen at the Beystar Island tournament with the Beylin Fist members, scouting for the next legendary blader. He wins battles easily in the tournament. Eventually, Chris turns out to be the legendary blader in question, and by the promise of granting him whatever he wants, Johannes garners him to the side of the Nemesis bladers. Ryuga later appears and tries to take Phantom Orion B:D's power, but Johannes saves him and gets beaten by him. Afterwards, they all retreat.
Later, he takes Chris to the main ruins and becomes surprised when he sees Dynamis there. Pluto explained that he brainwashed him to serve his purpose. When Prototype Nemesis first appears with Pluto as its owner, he watches Chris, Aguma, and Dynamis all battle and lose to it. After the battle, they meet Doji, who presents Pluto with the Nemesis Bladers who all work to protect the god of destruction. The three bladers introduce themselves as Keyser, Cycnus, and Herschel. The fourth blader known as Rago is the Child of the Black Sun. Rago shows off his power, causing Johannes to get a bit frightened. They all learn from Doji that Gingka's gang has arrived at the ruins.
When Gingka's gang arrive at the front of the temple, Johannes brings Bao and the rest of the Beylin Fist members to hold off the group causing Benkei Zeo and Toby to fight them. While he pretends to be angry about Gingka and his allies entering the temple, it is revealed that he purposely allowed some of them to enter the temple so that their powers could be absorbed by Nemesis. Johannes and the others continue to hold off Zeo, Toby, and Benkei, but their battle is cut off short by Ryuga. Everyone gets knocked out, including Johannes. However he reetares leaving behind Bao and the Beylin fist bladers.
Johannes is next seen with the Nemesis Bladers on the roof of WBBA Headquarters in order to stop Gingka and his company from pursuing Nemesis. While they have a brief advantage at first, they are eventually all defeated by Aguma, who uses Great Ring of Destruction to send them flying into a wall. After the Legendary Bladers board the helicopter, Johannes and the Nemesis Bladers retreat, never to be seen again.
