Aoyagi ignores Teshima's attempts to stop him and goes back to save Kaburagi, who has fallen behind. Meanwhile, with encouragement from Koga, Kaburagi begins to regain his form, but he's still not at full strength. That's when he sees... Aoyagi! Believing Aoyagi has also become exhausted and fallen behind, he moves up and begins racing ahead instead! They catch up to the pack in front of them. In order to get ahead of and out of the pack, Aoyagi hands Kaburagi a note from God so he'll increase his pace. On that note is written the lyrics to a certain song...!
but a long push from anyone other than 
another rider is against the rules.
aber ein starker Schubs von Nicht-
Teilnehmern ist gegen die Regeln!
pero se prohíben empujones
largos de no corredores.
pero se prohíben
empujones largos de no corredores.
mais je vais subir une pénalité
si tu me pousses trop longtemps !
ma farsi spingere è contro le regole,
quando non è un altro corridore a farlo.
mas só outro competidor pode
dar um empurrão longo.
но большой толчок не от участника
межшкольных — это против правил.
