## Summary

Senku says that since the Kingdom of Science is going up against an enemy that petrified the entire world, they need the world’s strongest man to aid them. He reaffirms his intent to revive Tsukasa and make him join the Kingdom of Science.

The Perseus returns to Japan, where everyone is excited to see it. Minami notices that some of the modern timers have lost their scars. Ruri is pleased, as this meant that they have found the secret to petrifaction, as Chrome confirms this by showing the Medusa. Mirai is happy that everyone returned, since it meant they could cure her brother. Senku then reveals that the weapon runs on energy, a theory supported by Kirisame's explanations.

When Mirai meets her brother, she is sad that he might not awake and clutches the Petrification Weapon, before she is shocked by the others appearing and clutching it too. Worried, Minami voices they might crush her hand, though Mirai is unconcerned only wishing for her brother's safety. Soon Senku and the others arrive all hopeful before Senku gives a command and range. Surely enough, the weapon is activated and Tsukasa is petrified. Senku wastes no time reviving him with the formula. Seeing her brother healed, Mirai sheds tears of joy at seeing him on his feet and he pats her head.

Nikki speaks to Minami and asks if she wants to join and the teary eyed woman refuses since its between family. However, Ruri pushes her into action while Nikki is surprised by this attitude. Chrome remarks its only natural Ruri be bold, since she is Kohaku's sister and the latter is a beast. During the reunion, Chrome is punished while Tsukasa addresses Senku on the situation, as Matsukaze remarks on his forwardness, something the others aren't surprised on.

Senku tells him of the plan to invade the moon, as Tsukasa comically reacts in a stoic shock, to everyone's surprise. Regaining his cool, he notes they need a strong person on their side while Ginro gets cocky. Ginro touts on Matsukaze's strength, as the latter recognizes Tsukasa's status as a warrior. Curious about the latter's skill, he approaches and challenges Tsukasa to a sparring match, to which the latter accepts. After a short bout, Matsukaze is easily bested by his opponent and in awe at his defeat, he surrenders. Everyone is amazed at this, especially Ginro who has his ego shattered and collapses to his knees. Tsukasa notes how strong Matsukaze would get if he learned modern fighting arts.

When the mentions of Senku's residual scars are made, Gen says he wants war paint too and uses paint to recreate his scar. He tells Senku it will serve as symbol, declaring the day he removes will be when the threat is vanquished. This rallies every other modern timer, who do the same and Gen convinces Tsukasa to do the same. Tsukasa proceeds to recreate his scar.
