Through numerous fights with Maria and his other classmates, all who have mastered different martial arts themselves, Jitae gradually becomes a martial artist specializing in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.

In this full-color special, he reviews where he has been, what he has done, and what he must do next to ensure his greatest opponent loses, even if it means the end of the universe itself!
