While Fang Zheng was still considering what to do next, Queen Mirelia sent someone to find him with a message.
A mysterious Demon Beast had suddenly appeared recently. It had been sighted in various countries and was moving from east to west. The beast was enormous and had quite a few minions. It had already destroyed many villages and towns along the way.
No one knew what it was, and almost everyone sent to investigate had failed to return. To resist this monster, the nations had formed a coalition army. Queen Mirelia had therefore sent an envoy to Fang Zheng, hoping he could gather the other three Heroes and stop the creature.

So it was the Spirit Turtle among the Four Sacred Beasts?
It had started moving, which was why The Wave's timer had stopped? What was the connection between them?

By the time Fang Zheng and the others reached their destination, Shana, Kyoko, and Little Flame had arrived as well.
Except...
"Why are you dressed like that?"
Fang Zheng looked perplexedly at Shana,
