England soldiers and some horses were around the battle stage. "The first to fight from each side are Yuri Sakazaki for the England Team and Brian Battler for the USA Team. Yuri VS Brian. Fight!" The announcer from the tournament team said.

Brian did a Hyper Tackle knocking Yuri with his shoulder, she reacted with a "Ko Ou Ken!" An energy released from her fist hitting Brian with the blow.

"Mai VS Lucky. Fight!"

"Ryu En Bu!" Mai did 360 degrees while flames were released around her burning Lucky and making him fall for a while. Lucky stood up and he did a Dunk Otoshi doing a somersault in the air and giving a punch on Mai, but she evaded it. She then charged her Ki and did a "Cho Hissatsu Shinobibachi!" She did a star moving forward and jumping with her elbow blow flaming her entire body. Lucky fell down and could not continue. "Winner is Mai!" the fight was in the hands of Heavy D! who joined the fight.

"Mai VS Heavy D!. Fight!"

Heavy D! did a Rolling Soul Diver standing forward with a jab with some energy around it. Mai felt the attack but got up quickly doing a "Ka Cho Sen!" where she launched one fan hitting Heavy D! which didn't seem to feel so much. He then did a "Soul Flower!" Punching the ground with one of his fists but Mai wasn't in the ground anymore, she dived from the air doing a "Musasabi no Mai!" where she with a fan on her mouth she dived into Heavy D! Clashing her head with his body making he fall, and this time, he could not stand up anymore. "Winner is Mai!"

"That settles it, the winner from the first fight is England Team and the first to say goodbye to the tournament is the USA Team."

Mature then called the remaining fighters to join the flight again, and so they did. The next fight was from Brazil Team VS Korea Team. And deciding by the coin, the battle would be at Amazon Rainforest, Brazil. The plane took them there and near a crashed chopper where the battle would begin.

Both teams entered in an agreement and Brazil Team resolved to start with Ralf Jones and from the side of Korea Team, Chang Koehan. "Ralf VS Chang. Fight!"

Chang did a Tekkyu Funsai Geki which he used his steel ball to attack the opponent forward, Ralf guarded the attack and did a Vulcan Punch on Chang which consisted of several punches in flames. Chang felt that and fell on the ground. Everyone was expecting him to get up, but even with his high stamina, he could not stand up. "Winner is Ralf!" Then Choi joined the fight.

"Ralf VS Choi. Fight!"

Choi started the fight with a Tatsumaki Shippuu Zan spinning around and flying like a tornado around him hitting Ralf and sending him to the ground. Ralf then got up although feeling the blow. Ralf then did the Argentine Back Breaker throwing Choi to the air and catching him with his two hands on his back and throwing him on the ground. Choi felt the attack and as his friend, he could not get up. "Winner is Ralf!" Then Kim Kaphwan joined the fight.

"Ralf VS Kim. Fight!"

Kim did a "Hi En Zan!" which was a mortal hitting Ralf with his two legs. Ralf fell on the ground and could not get up anymore. Clark then joined the fight. "Winner is Kim!"

"Clark VS Kim. Fight!"

Clark already began charging his Ki and did an Ultra Argentine Back Breaker throwing to the air and catching Kim three times and after that knocking him against his knee. Kim couldn't get up anymore and the winner was the Brazil Team. "Winner is Clark!"

"The winner from the second fight is Brazil Team and the second to say goodbye to the tournament was the Korea Team."

Mature took everyone again back to the plane for the next battle. And the next battle was from Mexico Team VS Japan Team. Deciding in the coin, the next fight would be at Pao Pao Café, Mexico.
