== Synopsis ==
Dan goes to Hong Kong to stop the battle. Adad grows into a monstrous form, but Leo and Astra show their true colors as well. 
== Plot ==
After Breaking News about the truth of the Space Contraction Phenomenon takes over the channels after Ubarazu's broadcast, Ken from SSSP-China contacts Ide. Ken has received reports about aliens fighting in Hong Kong, a city under SSSP-China's jurisdiction, and sends the footage. Ide is very confused at the sight of Adad fighting the Leo Brothers. According to Edo, the Leo Brothers are the Star Cluster Council's private assassins, even more, elite than Ace Killer. Although they cannot interfere with the council's business, the three are causing massive damage in an urban area. Its threat level is way above anything the SSSP-China can handle, which is why Ken asks for their help. Edo is a little reluctant about stepping in against the council. Dan walks in and volunteers himself, unable to leave Adad to his fate.
In Hong Kong, the three leave a massive trail of destruction in their wake while Sam observes them from behind a wrecked car. Coming out of the smoke above Adad, Leo uses his Leo Kick and creates a small crater. Astra comes up behind Leo and launches himself toward Adad. The latter misses Astra twice with his staff before Leo punches him into the ground, remarking how slow he is. Adad rises from the rubble with a visible claw wound on his chest. Leo mocks how Adad is not a worthy opponent after all and how all attempts at resistance are futile. Suddenly, they hear a faint laugh coming from Adad. Adad says he was created as an experiment to take the place of someone physically fragile. If the brothers kill him, it shows he has no reason to exist. He takes out a couple of vials of Dark Star Drugs and consumes them all, declaring he will use any means necessary. Moments later, Adad grows into a hulking behemoth.
The transformation heals Adad's chest wound, and he punches Astra into a wall before the latter has time to react. Leo gets excited about the difficulty spike, dodges an incoming punch, and lands a hit on Adad's face. Surprisingly, it did nothing, and Adad slams him into the ground. Astra returns to the battlefield, but Adad grabs him too, saying he is all too familiar with the council's methods and tactics, even the brothers' use of short-range teleporters. He throws Astra at Leo, but Astra teleports to a standing position just in time to not crash into his brother. Both of their suits are now busted. As Adad charges them, the brothers revert to their original forms. They force Adad back with one devastating blow and walk out of the smoke, revealing their almost Ultra-like appearances. Leo vows to kill Adad for making them go all out...
