## Plot

### Part 2

The volume starts at the Steppin Wolf, prior to Muko's arrival. Cookie and Nyarai want to fix a match against Team Executor where they will defeat Team Executor in their debut match. To ensure the match happens, Cookie bribes Dinedon, the manager of Team Executor. With the match promised, Cookie and Nyarai have a conversation about Muko, Nyarai's future partner after Nyarai read a Spotter article about Muko regarding her fight with Kalita at Cafe Carrots. Adelgund reads the article and develops a liking towards Muko, ensuring the match will happen.

Days pass and the Masato Match takes place. Many Combagals engage in matches until the main event. Team Deliverance and Team Executor enter the ring of Masato Arena. Muko starts the match by engaging Adelgund. She gets easily dominated by the Masato Champion due to the gap in size and experience. After making a small comeback, Muko is shocked when Adelgund tags Peki in. Bored with Muko's performance, Nyarai has the bunny tag her in.

Before Peki and Nyarai can fight, Shun Gonfano arrives with the Cyclone Crushers to reveal that Cookie fixed the match. The sumiguza brings a tape recorder that shows Cookie bribing Dinedon before the match, turning the crowd against the squirrel. Shun asks Nyarai and Peki to leave their teams and fight together as Wilds. Nyarai accepts since she already worked for Shun and Peki joins in as well since she resented being stuck in Adelgund's shadow. The two create Team Firestorm to fight their former partners.

Adelgund makes Muko the latest member of Team Executor, forcing her to fight Nyarai. Muko is tortured physically and emotionally by Nyarai, who relishes in her betrayal as she beats up Muko. Nyarai reveals to Cookie that she always worked for Shun. The reason why she acted as a mole was to punish Cookie for ruining the life of Freydar, a former Combagal of the squirrel.

Adelgund tags in and easily defeats Nyarai. She then fights Peki, angrily demanding to know why the penguin betrayed her. Peki counters by saying that Adelgund betrayed her first as she remembers how Adelgund forced her to take a Heel Turn and made her a Jobber to satisfy the Wild prejudice of the fans.

Peki uses her boxing style and easily overwhelms Adelgund. The Masato Champion asks why Peki decided to betray her since she was going to get a Face Turn by following Cookie's plan. Peki reveals that she saw Adelgund having sex with Miho, the latest member of the Exe-Cutie-Ves at the Steppin Wolf. Angry at her lover for her negligence and infidelity, Peki pummels Adelgund with the intent of leaving her unconscious.

Adelgund retaliates by breaking Peki's arm. The screams of pain of Peki awaken Nyarai, who asks Peki to tag her in. Adelgund performs a Heel Turn by breaking Peki's limbs out of jealousy and heartbreak, destroying her reputation in the process. Despite Adelgund's torment, Peki tags Nyarai in.

Omce again, Adelgund gets the upper hand on Nyarai by putting her in a Spine Breaker hold. To everyone's horror, Nyarai snaps her own spine, revealing that she has a flexibility that makes her immune to submission holds. Nyarai uses her Leg Jet Burst to defeat Adelgund with a flurry of kicks. Muko tries to save Adelgund by tagging her in, but Adelgund lets Nyarai defeat her to save the bunny and teach her the true spirit of furry fighting.

With Nyarai's victory over Adelgund, Shun crowns her the new Masato Champion. Cookie confronts Dinedon, having figured out that he sold her and Team Executor off. Dinedon reveals that Shun bribed him a day after his meeting with Cookie. He retires from furry fighting, wondering what kind of world will be made by Shun's actions.

Cookie tries to comfort Muko over what happened at the match. The rabbit asks Cookie about Freydar. Cookie states how Freydar has the potential of defeating Donkizari until Cookie overworked her, resulting in her getting a head injury that will render her blind if she fought again.

Muko decides to quit furry fighting, feeling ashamed of her weakness and selfish motives. This sends Cookie into a three day depression. She snaps out of it when Saniko visits her to help Muko come out of her room, since she didn't come out since the Masato Match.

Cookie visits Muko and reveals that she sold her Fortune Gals to Shun after the fallback of Freydar. She became alcoholic and lost the respect of her former Combagals, who are now the Cyclone Crushers. Hearing Cookie's story, Muko snaps out of her depression and returns to furry fighting.

Muko moves in to Cookie's agency since Saniko only allowed her to return to furry fighting if she learned independence by moving out of the house. As the two relax, Kalita burts into the Champubator Agency. The volume ends as the vixen tells Cookie that she needs to pay for the loan she made or face the consequences.
