Midousuji leaps into first with a desperate diving turn. More than 200 meters behind in the final stages of the race, Sohoku chases after Midousuji on the Naruko Super Express' final trip. Even as Naruko's consciousness fades, he throws away everything to reduce his weight, and Sakamichi realizes there's no way the three of them will finish together anymore. Imaizumi and Naruko express their gratitude for Naruko's resolve. Naruko accepts their thanks and uses the last of his strength to ride with determination!
But you raced me before the 
finish line on the first day,
Trotzdem hast du’s in der ersten Etappe
vor dem Ziel
pero me adelantaste
en la meta el primer día,
pero me adelantaste
en la meta el primer día,
Pourtant, t’as disputé l’arrivée,
le premier jour.
Eppure mi hai sfidato
al traguardo della prima giornata,
Mas você disputou a linha de chegada
comigo no primeiro dia,
Но ты сражался со мной 
около финиша в первый день,
