In the A-block of the Hero Wars, Kintetsu faces off against Rohan and his suit, The Dostorbrewski, but ends up losing against his powerful armor. Wanting to become strong enough to beat him, Kaito tries to follow Long's advice and become 'nothingness', with not much success. Whilst at a karaoke bar, Kaito runs into his next scheduled opponent, Tometoshi Kakarimachi, who accidentally damages his Bankfon, though chooses not to force him to pay for the damages after hearing his sob story, instead leaving the repairs to Long. The next day, Kaito battles against Tometoshi's suit, Hilaryman, and despite Tometoshi being a rather weak fighter, Kaito finds himself hassled by a bug that Long had secretly installed, causing his special attacks to damage himself. Tometoshi, filled with confidence, upgrades to Kachoryman and goes on the offensive, soon upgrading to Gocharyman. With both fighters pushed to their limits, Kaito suggests they finish things in the buff, with Kaito ending up as the victor. Despite his loss, Tometoshi finds new respect from his family.
