Bisco and Jabi continue their journey through Touhoku in search of Sabikui, the Rust-Eater, a mushroom said to cleanse away any rust. Milo also realizes that if he could cure his sister, Pawoo, if he had this Rust-Eater. Meanwhile, the governor of Imihama, Kurokawa, burns with an unusual obsession with killing Bisco.

With the information obtained from Tetsujin Town, Bisco and Milo continue to head north. As they make their way through Shimobuki Prefecture, the land encased in snow, they encounter Tirol, nearly frozen to death. With Tirol's aid, the two continue their journey toward their final destination - Konakidani, the land said to contain the Rust Eater.

Meanwhile, Kurokawa also closes in around them...

It seems like no one can stop Kurokawa, and yet at the very moment Jabi feels that despair, a familiar face appears before Kurokawa...
