With Goseigahara celebrating Halloween, the boys invite Miyuki to join them for a costume parade before their match, much to Mikio's dismay. As everyone becomes obsessed with sharing pumpkin cakes, Victor becomes concerned about that man, who is jealous of Ryoma and Rinsho growing closer with Miyuki. During the Halloween match, Mikio attempt to get his sister back from Ryoma, but he was kicked out by Hawk and Gear. Just then, Polemos attacks with a Pumpkin Haisha monster, Jack o' Lantern, desperate to prove himself as powerful leader of Apocalypse horsemen after learning from Azazel that Captain Kataktis is planning to bring out a stronger enemy. Suddenly, Cybergeddon decided to enlarge Jack to destroy the stadium. But StrikerKaiser takes the last ditches to destroy it with too much effort before facing Polemos and his followers. With Miyuki hearing about the horsemen's fears of being considered worthless if they can't be the top, the AceStrikers destroy the army and attempt to purify the horsemen, but their Glorious Galactic Overdrive attack is stopped by Overlord's new enforcer who, to Miyuki's shock, is revealed to be none other than her brother, Mikio, who has been manipulated by Overlord's blood.
