Overview: Noboru goes to the Buddy Police headquarters to void his contract with El Quixote and be done with Buddyfighting. Suddenly, the alarm sounds due to the appearance of the criminal Akaoni Kanme, prompting Tasuku and Takihara to apprehend him. Noboru is invited by Commander I into the Buddy Police's main room where he not only watches Tasuku defeat and arrest Akaoni, but he also learns about Tasuku's past. Noboru then runs off, frustrated at himself for not being special like Tasuku or Gao. Nonetheless, he gets encouragement from El Quixote who tells him to do what he wants to do, regardless of what others may say.
