==Plot==
The Yokohama Police Department takes the case involving a series of robberies across the Yokohama Division. Jyuto decides to contact Samatoki and Rio and ask them for help. While Jyuto is questioning witnesses, Samatoki orders his yakuza subordinates to investigate the robberies as well, while Rio checks his own channels to find any clues.
Meanwhile, Iris notices two police officers, Hodogaya and Nagatsuta, who were threatening two civilians and take their money away. Iris returns their money to them and threatens Hodogaya and Nagatsuta to post the pictures of their crime online, so they have no choice but to leave. Iris, however, overhears them talking about taking down Jyuto. Suspicious of them, Iris asks her "hacker friend" to find information about them.
While the investigation is stagnant, Jyuto suggests Samatoki and Rio find a replacement for him for the Division Rap Battle, since he can't participate until the case is solved. However, Samatoki is against that, saying that they must participate together as a team, which Rio agrees with. Iris then approaches them and shows them pictures of Hodogaya and Nagatsuta with the robbery case suspect.
MAD TRIGGER CREW and Iris follow Hodogaya and Nagatsuta to the police safehouse where they pick the robber and take him to the harbor. They decide to break their partnership with the robber and murder him by drowning to get themselves an easy arrest and keep everything he stole for themselves. However, Rio rescues the robber and MAD TRIGGER CREW defeat both of them. Jyuto informs both Hodogaya and Nagatsuta that they have to work for him unless they want Jyuto to reveal everything to the police.
With the case closed, MAD TRIGGER CREW win the qualifiers and advance to the Division Rap Battle.
Meanwhile, at Shibuya Division, Ramuda and Gentaro are informed that Dice is being held captive at the underground casino after losing ten million in gambling. The gamblers refuse to let him go, since he owes them, but challenges Ramuda and Gentaro for a game. The lead gambler tells them that they've lost a lot of money after betting against Fling Posse, so if they lose, they will destroy their voices but if they win, Dice's debt will be forgiven.
Dice tells Ramuda and Gentaro to leave, however, they accept the challenge, but, Dice is the one to roll the dice, since he's the only one who has any experience. The lead gambler uses the weighed dice to cheat, however, Dice manages to win the game by cheesing the rules. Gentaro then reveals their trick with weighed Dice, so they confront Fling Posse in a rap battle, however, they lose.
After defeating the gamblers, Fling Posse win the qualifiers and Ichijiku makes an official announcement that Buster Bros!!!, Matenro, Fling Posse, and MAD TRIGGER CREW will participate in the final match of the Division Rap Battle in Chuohku.
