Plot

The big game against Teikoku is only a few days away. The members of Teikoku are practicing their technique, Death Zone. By firing Fuyukai, Raimon does not have a coach and that might lead to their disqualification, which some of the boys blame Natsumi for. Endou tries to motivate the others to start looking for a new coach before the game, but the others look low. They believe they can't just hire anyone to be their coach. Kageno scares everyone in the room with his dark aura. Realizing that he knew about Daisuke's notebook, Gouenji gives Endou the idea to ask the Rairaiken shop owner, Hibiki Seigou, to become their new coach, which they do. However, Hibiki doesn't show any interest in becoming their coach and rejects his proposal. To convince him, Endou brings out the fact that Hibiki knew about the secret manual and Domon mentions that he might have played with Endou's grandfather. However, Hibiki still isn't convinced to join and tries to scare them that being a legendary team will only bring them disaster. He tells the kids that if they don't order anything, they have to leave. Endou wants to order a bowl of ramen, but realizes he left his wallet in the clubroom, so Hibiki throws all of them out. Detective Onigawara is inside the restaurant and mentions that Endou knows how to use God Hand. Natsumi is on her laptop trying to find a member of the Inazuma Eleven to take Fuyukai's place as a coach, but all the data about the soccer club from 40 years ago has been deleted.

The boys are on the field practicing, but Kabeyama feels too down to even move. He feels like they've already lost since they can't find a coach. Endou tries to encourage him, telling him that they'll definitely find one. This causes Kabeyama to cling hard to Endou, which brings a smile to the others' faces. While Endou is complaining to Kabeyama to let him go, Kidou pays them a visit. The members of Raimon think he wants to laugh at them for nearly being disqualified, but he wants to apologize for the incidents with Fuyukai and Domon. Kidou says that he's envious of them because Raimon wins the matches with their own abilities, while Teikoku only wins due to following their commanders' orders. Endou tries to convince him that this is not true and offers Kidou to practice with them, which he refuses it for now, but states they might do it in the near future.

Anzai Masaru tells Kageyama about Raimon's efforts to find a coach, stating that they asked the owner of Rairaiken to be their coach. At night, Kageyama pays Hibiki a visit only to brag about Teikoku being invincible. After getting a phone call from Kidou's Father, who's worried about his son, he orders the driver to bring him to their mansion. Kidou is having an identity crisis, wondering who he exactly is. Kageyama tells him that ever since he was six, he was already a perfect being, the one he had been looking for, which is why he recommended him to the Kidou Financial Group. The two of them have conflicting moralities about what soccer really is. When Kageyama tries touching Kidou's magazine, he immediately retracts it from his hands. Before leaving, Kageyama reminds Kidou one last time who he is.

Raimon have only two days left until the match with Teikoku and they still haven't found a coach. Endou decides to ask Hibiki again. He meets Onigawara for the first time, who introduces himself as a detective. He wants to help Endou find a new coach because he has always been a fan of the Inazuma Eleven and after seeing Endou's God Hand during their practice match with Teikoku, he's convinced they can be revived. He also reveals to Endou the tragedy that happened forty years ago, which made the members of Inazuma Eleven stop caring about soccer. After the detective tells him that Hibiki was the goalkeeper of the team and Daisuke's pupil, Endou thanks him and immediately dashes to Hibiki's restaurant.

Endou, without giving up, challenges Hibiki. If he can stop all three of Hibiki's shoots, Hibiki must become their new coach. Fortunately, Endou successfully blocked all three shots and managed to find Raimon a new coach.
