Synopsis:
Gonzu patches up Ido and helps him install Alita in a berserker body. Her new body Ido had found on an alien warship years earlier and keep hidden because he was frightened by its power. Kinuba defeats another opponent in a sanctioned fight retaining his title for the 281 time. After the fight, Makaku surprises Kinuba and takes his body to seek revenge on Alita.
Alita and Ido go to the hunter-warrior bar Kansas to recruit help to take down Makaku. But no one wants to help, so Alita challenges them and hands them all a humiliating defeat. Makaku then shows up.
