The Jack Gang tries to steal the GAD, but when Hajiki bonds with it, the GAD reacts...
After forming a techode from the GAD, Hajiki is confronted by Katana, the pilot of a Heavy Metal named Seven. Hajiki and the Techode manage to drive him and the Jack Gang away. Unfortunately, Katana burns with the desire to destroy them both. Elsewhere, the mysterious client who started this in the first place is revealed; and she wants to claim the Techode as her own... if she can!
Catherine Flaunbert is the new employee at Hachisuka's company and Hajiki isn't too happy about it. Nevertheless, Hajiki follows one of her leads on a GAD to the junkyard. Unfortunately for Hajiki, his hunch was correct, as this just leads him into more trouble, as the Jack Gang and Katana, now sporting their newly formed Techode, Zero, track him down. In the middle of the confusion, Hajiki meets a young girl who owns a Techode of her own...
Aiko has an idea that all the Techode owners could be friends. Thus, he confronts Takumi, Hajiki and Katana.

As Lightning is using it, the laser begins to fuse into Lightning's arm! Hajiki struggles to get through to Lightning, but is this just proof that the Techodes really are as destructive as the two hunters say?
Hajiki begins to wonder if he’s anything like Katana and what he would be without Lightning. Meanwhile, an assassin named Takanaka targets both Hajiki and Katana.

Hajiki continues his voyage with Arashi and goes to Chenis Island to look for a trace of the man that could be his father. There was a hangar, which had many dilapidated small rockets lined up, and an old man named Bob who was guarding it. There, a man who identifies himself as Yujirou Sanada--Hajiki's father--appeared. The man's face was hidden by bandages, and everything he said was not making sense. However, Hajiki was nervous and didn't even try to confirm the man's identity.
The true identity of the man wounded in an explosion and covered by bandages was a Techode. When Sayuri suddenly appeared and touched the man, his wounds started to heal. Sayuri offered Hajiki a helping hand to take them to space. This island was originally a facility for a space burial. If a rocket can be excavated, it could be launched just one more time. Then, they noticed Katana with Zero approaching them for revenge.
Sayuri and the bandaged man are trying to go fly into space by using the electromagnetic tablet left at the Chenis Island. Their destination is a place called Gad's nest. Although Arashi opposes the idea, Hajiki also aims to go up to the same height with Lightning. However, Katana obstructs the take-off using Zero to take Sayuri back. The time for Hajiki and Katana's final battle has arrived…
The launch succeeded with the sacrifice of Zero and Hayate, and Hajiki was heading high up into the sky as he had wished. However, it was a one-way trip on a funeral rocket, and there was no hope of returning alive. When the rocket arrived at the retention space, Lightning, that had absorbed the bandaged man, started to speak to Hajiki, showing him the end of his father's journey.
