Episode 18 Plot: The Egyptian round of the World Championship is about to begin and a TV sports program announces the upcoming matches: Neo Borg vs. Barthez Batallion, PPB All Starz vs. Baihuzu and BBA Revolution vs. F Sangre (for some reason, this is not shown in the English dub and the versions based on it; the results table shown at the beginning of the episode is omitted). Hiromi is delighted with the country, but Daichi is again sick due to the flight and Hiromi gets scared with his sick face (for some reason, parts of this conversation were cut from the English dub and the versions based on it). Barthez is disappointed with Mathilda and Miguel, so he choses Claud and Aaron for the match against the Neo Borg. Meanwhile, the BBA Revolution stumbles upon an amateur beybattle and Daichi is frustrated that he cannot take part in it since his Gaia Dragoon is damaged. Kyojyu then unveils a new Gaia Dragoon he's been working on, equipped with the engine gear. Daichi is initially reluctant about using a beyblade other than his former one (which is said to have been given by his father in the English dub and the versions based on it), but he tests it against a local kid and easily wins, amazed with its power. Meanwhile, Barthez is having his beyblades verified (for some reason, some parts of the verification scenes were cut from the English dub and the versions based on it). Later, he comments on how stupid such verification processes are, since he can simply replace the legal blades after the test. As he readies his team, he explains that he's devised a special spider web-like tape that is activated via a remote control and is supposed to shoot out of his team's blades and trap their opponents in an inescapable web. Miguel is torn and knows that if they follow his coach's plan they could win, but he feels he'd rather lose with respect than cheat. In the first battle, Aaron goes up against Yuri and both are nervous - Yuri for having lost his two previous matches, and Aaron because of Barthez. Yuri soon overcomes and holds his ground against Aaron. Barthez tries to unleash the web, but nothing happens. It becomes known that Aaron refused to use the 'fixed' blade and loses while using his original blade, enraging Barthez. Miguel is defiant and tells Barthez that he is fired and he and his team mates aren't going to be 'his puppets anymore' (in the original Japanese dub and the versions based on it, Barthez tries to punch Miguel in the face for his rebellion, but Miguel reminds him that he is in front of thousands of people and Barthez stops his fist before touching Miguel, shocked). Barthez leaves and warns Miguel that he stands no chance without him. Miguel steps into the ring against Kai and gives everything he's got. There are two different versions of the match: the original and the one from the English dub and the versions based on it. In the original, Miguel attacks Kai and then unleashes his Fire Execution special attack, providing him with gargoyle wings and a dark look on his face, then setting Dranzer on fire. Kai then asks him if he was really thinking he could defeat Dranzer with "such flames", breaks free from the fire and unleashes Blazing Gig, throwing Dark Gargoyle out of the stadium. In the English dub and the versions based on it, Miguel simply attacks Kai a couple of times, only to be thrown out of the dish by Dranzer's Blazing Gig - also, Barthez is seen commenting to himself that he was right about Miguel not standing a chance. In both versions, however, the entire audience and Kai himself congratulate Miguel on his fight, as well as his team mates. They leave the dish to prepare for their fifth match in the next round as Barthez lies knelled to the ground, frustrated and confused that people adore Miguel despite of his loss. Also, with three wins, the Neo Borg is the first team to advance to the finals.
