Plot[]
Still trying to hide his pain from the loss of his partner, Marucho Marukura makes the other Brawlers quarrel about what their next plan of action should be, resulting in Dan and Julie deserting the other Brawlers in search of the Infinity Core. Julie is still sad about the fact that her friend Billy betrayed her, so they decide to go looking for him. Eventually, they locate him at the Brandenburg Gate in Berlin Germany, and she decides to challenge him to a brawl so she can find out what happened to her best friend. During the brawl, Masquerade shows up, telling Billy that if he sends Gorem and Julie to the Doom Dimension, he will bump up Billy's rank. However, Billy closes the Doom Card, saving Julie from going to the Doom Dimension, and quits Masquerade's team. After Billy gets free he asks for Julie's forgiveness.
