As he watches the famed Toake Daigo pull off another rescue so daring others might think it impossible, Fire Sergeant Onoda Shun thinks back to their days in special rescue training together, and how their working relationship began.

The "destined three" are assigned to a firefighting exercise together, where they must rescue a dummy from a training building that's really on fire. When they realize a true survivor would never survive the smoke, a difficult decision awaits them...

“Please let me go.” With those words, Daigo actually dislocates his own shoulder and goes into the crevice in the rubble. What an unbelievably calm way to continue the rescue mission.

The typhoon has caused severe flooding. Shun and Igarashi dive into the water with their respirators to help Daigo and the survivors from a basement that is steadily filling with rain water.

The Fuwa Rescue Squad leaves the collapsed road. Feeling the weight of the lives they couldn’t save, Daigo and Shun fall into silence. Watching them, Yamagami reminisces about how far they’ve come.
