Teshima and Aoyagi break away from the pack to pursue the riders ahead of them, but Kyoto Fushimi stands in their way. In order to complete the objective given to him by Midousuji, Yamaguchi challenges Teshima and Aoyagi to a sprint that comes with a catch. As a climber, the terms are disadvantageous for Teshima, but they can’t move forward without accepting the challenge. Out of concern for Aoyagi, who can’t sprint at full speed due to an injured leg, Teshima pulls him along, and Aoyagi recalls how they met as he watches him…
Teshima may not be a threat, 
but Aoyagi is a first-class sprinter.
Teshima mal beiseite,
Aoyagi ist ein Top-Sprinter!
Teshima no es una amenaza,
pero Aoyagi es un buen esprínter.
Teshima no es una amenaza,
pero Aoyagi es un buen esprínter.
Teshima, passe encore,
mais Aoyagi est un sprinteur né !
Teshima non sarà un grosso pericolo,
ma Aoyagi è uno scattista di prim'ordine.
O Teshima não é grande coisa,
mas o Aoyagi é um velocista e tanto!
Тесима, может, и не угроза, 
но Аояги-то спринтер!
