In the Nether Realm, Dais is given his mission of capturing Kento. Dais is granted his request of the assistance of the twin Sand Strikers. As Kento enters a construction site, Dais and the Sand Strikers attack. Kento is victorious, and heads out to the moutains, where the fight continues. By tapping into the source of his power, Kento is able to focus in on the Sand Strikers and destroy them. But when Dais tells Kento that Sage and Cye have been captured, Kento willingly accompanies Dais into the Nether Realm.
