When Yuto first joined the team, he felt isolated from the other members due to his older brother Hayato. After seeing Yuto clash with his seniors, Ashikiba challenges him to a race. It ends with a crushing victory for Ashikiba, and Yuto learns to respect him and his strength. During the finish line sprint on the second day of the Inter-high, Ashikiba entrusts Yuto with the responsibility of being the team's ace. He overturns his own assumptions that he's a climber with a fierce sprint, catching up to Imaizumi and Midousuji! But as Midousuji and Yuto race against each other, Imaizumi thinks of his teammates and removes his own "limiter!"
Looks like I'll have to raise 
my threat level to ten.
Ich muss wohl meine Alarmstufe
auf die höchste Stufe, Stufe 10, stellen!

Dovrò alzare il livello di minaccia a 10.
Parece que vou ter que aumentar
 o nível de alerta para dez!
Похоже, уровень угрозы нужно
 поднять до десятого.
