Revision as of 01:17, 10 February 2023

Intro

This is my Sandbox, which shows Splatoon Characters and story events that are part of my personal canon. Do you ever have the feeling that you hate the Splatoon Manga because the main protagonists act so stupid and immature? Well you've come to the right place! This is basically my own iteration of the Manga. Share your thoughts about it in my Sandbox Talk Page. Enjoy!

File:Callie Spoiler Reaction.jpg

WARNING!! This Page contains MAJOR Spoilers for both
Return of the Mammalians AND Side Order! Read at your own risk!
(I will remove this notice after it has been a year since each of their launches)

Post-S3 Launch To-Do's This is a list of content I need to add throughout Splatoon 3's lifespan:

Finalize S3 Characters' appearances, new Team Battle Tactics descriptions & misc. info.
Start the formats of the other Chapters.
Add S3's Splatfest info as Events transpire.
Plan out and divide this Sandbox page into separate ones each for characters and story, as this single page is gonna become EXTREMELY long in the end.

Advanced Details

My Splatoon canon has differences from the Games to feel unique, and the Manga that make it more serious and action-packed than silly. Also, I made up Turf War laws as well too.

Differences

The Rules & Laws of Turf War

The organizers of the Turf War Leagues have various rules for battles.

New arrivals of the Turf War scene start with the "Rookie Set" / which has a 1000 Cash price for the whole set plus the entry fee, but can buy from shops right away with money they brought. But in the Splatsville League, new and veteran players are also given a Sheldon License to trade in for the Weapon of their choice.
New Inkling (and Octoling) competitor entrants must be 14 years old in order to enter.
If two competing Teams of similar Ink Colors (e.g. Turquoise and Cyan) wanted to challenge each other in battle, one Team HAS to change their Color to help differentiate each Team Color to prevent confusion from both the competitors, commentators and viewers.
There should be NO physical contact (Touching) with Teammates and opponents.
Manipulating Battles (A reference to Splatoon hackers). Bribbing the Judds. Use of illegally modified or stolen Weapons and Gear (Another reference to Splatoon hackers and Grizzco Industries) will lead to indefinite bans.
Actions of harassment, bullying, threatening others, or use of profanity/vulgar slurs in battle will lead to temporary bans. But repeated violations, or if the offense is extremely major, will lead to longer or even indefinite bans.
Squidbagging opponents in matches will lead to a 10,000 Cash fine. If both Teams begin a Squid Party in a match, they are all banned for a month and given a 1,000,000 Cash fine.
Food & drinks are prohibited in matches, but gum and the soda from the Tacticooler Special are allowed.
Players are required to take mandatory restroom breaks before a match.
Blunt weapons (knives, bats, etc.) used in matches are illegal. If a player is found with one, they are arrested.
Use of Turf War Weapons outside of Battles is prohibited.
For Stages that contain doorways to small rooms on the play field (such as Flounder Heights), it is illegal to enter them while a match is in progress. If there are any accounts of such, the accounted player will be banned for a week and ordered to do community service during that time-frame.
Players are required to wear two small devices: The "Special-Limiter" to prevent unfair advantages and only have their Main Weapon's single Special. And the "Jump-Limiter" to confine players' super jump distance to the radius of the Stage and to prevent players from jumping away out of ongoing matches and also sync's their spirit to their Team's Spawn Point/Spawner Drones. Certain Specials; mainly the Bomb Rush, Bubbler, Echolocator, Kraken, Splashdown, Ink Armor, Booyah Bomb and Zipcaster are activated through similar devices.
Elite Turf War Team members must have differing Special Weapons (e.g. Inkzooka, Inkstrike, Killer Wail & Kraken), this includes Bomb Rush/Launcher types. Meaning that two or more members can't have the same Special. Also, Teams must have two boys and two girls. But Splatsville contradicts the later rule; that a Team can consist of one gender, but ONLY can if they show lawyers proof that their
biological-gender (The gender they were born as) matches the one they claim to be. Even going through a lie-detector test as a precaution. If not, they are rejected.
Elite Turf War Teams are required to have companies sponsor them. With the Leagues themselves being sponsored by SquidForce, Ammo Knights, Crust Bucket, Grizzco Industries and the various Weapon manufacturers.
Turf War lawyers must advertise for new competitors to replace Teams that have quit, been banned or fully retired. They also have the rights to announce orders to replace Special Weapons and Gear Abilities that they feel are unfair, discontinue Stages and announce renovation construction on ones returning, and also to retire certain Ink colors to replace newer ones, or bring old ones back. A Team can change it's official color only once. Even if their previous one returns.
The Battle Towers are used as Turf War lobbies for Elite Teams to organize battles, along with random solo grouping options if Inklings/Octolings want to team-up with others, and Commentator studios. Plus, the "Tutorial Stages" are used by Teams and other players for practice drills.
The Battle Dojo in Inkopolis Plaza is used as a aim practice center with balloon targets on the League's sixteen Stages.
The Lobby's Locker Room is FAR larger than the game.
The Shoal in both Inkopolis Square and Splatsville is an arcade/entertainment center instead of a Turf War matching lobby.
The Shops sell the Gear Items that are normally obtainable from both Hero Modes (OV, OC, OE, RotM), amiibo, Splatfest-Themed & Grizzco. With Gear made by the latter being sold for very expensive prices due to Mr. Grizz giving the sellers' "copyright fees" so he can improve his business (and further his goal), while the Hero Mode, amiibo & Splatfest-Themed Gear Items are sold for cheap prices similar to the "Rookie Gear" (But they don't sell the Japan-Exclusive gear in: The SQUID GIRL Set, the FA-11 Bomber Jackets, the Limited Edition V-Neck Tees, the Milky Eminence Set, the Sennyu Collection, the Mecha Set & Koshien Set, due to my Canon being based on the American Versions/Translations). Also, the Black Pipe & White Line Tees, Traditional, CoroCoro, Moist Ghillie and Online Sets were the grand prizes in convention contests held in early May 2015 and late June 2017 respectively as the only sets in existence.
Ammo Knights doesn't sell the Hero Weapon Replicas due to Sheldon never finding his Grandpappy's lost top-secret Weapon blueprints (The ones from S1's amiibo Challenges) and agreeing to the New Squidbeak Splatoon's "secrecy policy".
Gear ordered through SplatNet is forwarded to the Gear Shops rather than through Murch.
Stages that got terrain modifications in Post-Release updates are used at the start of their Leagues. Specifically;
1. Splatoon 1; Urchin Underpass, Arowana Mall, Kelp Dome, Moray Towers and Saltspray Rig in v2.0.
2. Splatoon 2; Musselforge Fitness, Humpback Pump Track, Inkblot Art Academy, Moray Towers & Port Mackerel in v2.1. Starfish Mainstage, Snapper Canal & Piranha Pit in v4.0. The Reef in v4.2. Blackbelly Skatepark in v4.3. Kelp Dome in v4.4. Shellendorf Institute & New Albacore Hotel in v5.0.
3. Splatoon 3; Undertow Spillway in v2.0.
The Battle Lobbies, Battle Dojo, Shoal, Grizzco Industries & Shops are temporarily closed during weeks containing big holidays, such as Squidmas (Barring FrostyFest).
I consider Splatfests that were held in the North American regions, plus the worldwide ones as Canon here (Splatfests held in the other regions and are collaboration/promotional are not).
The Squid vs. Octopus Splatfest during the Inkopolis Square League was held to celebrate the its one-year anniversary and didn't have the "species matching the Team" rule to not be racially divisive, as the vast majority of the worlds Inklings don't know about, or notice the Octolings in Inkopolis.
The Final Splatfests are hosted as the conclusion of a Turf War League. Also due to this, players that competed in said Leagues, must return their Main Weapons the day after the event.

Hero Mode Chapters

Some events in the Hero Mode stories are different to make the identities of some important Characters clearer, along with some new twists to certain parts of them to make them feel unique.

In Octo Valley, Agent 3's Ink is always Orange regardless of the Mission. And Callie and Marie help Agent 3 with their signature Hero Weapons and wear their own Hero Suits in the fight against DJ Octavio. Plus, Agent 3's Hero Equipment (Hero Shot, Bombs & Ink Tank) are already fully upgraded when she first obtains them.
In Octo Canyon, Agent 4's Ink is always Green regardless of the Mission, and uses the Hero Dualies instead of the Hero Shot in the fight against DJ Octavio. Also, when Callie is freed from Octavio by Marie and sings along with her, she stays in her punk-rock attire. Plus, all of the Hero Weapons Sheldon loans, the Hero Shot & Ink Tank are already fully upgraded when Agent 4 first obtains them.
In the Octo Expansion, Agent 8's Ink is always Pink regardless of the Test-Station. Also, corrupted Agent 3's Ink is her Orange but with the Sanitized Ink's texture and uses different Specials in the Spinal Phase fight which are: Splashdown, Inkzooka, Suction-Bomb Launcher, Bubble Blower and Tenta Missiles. Plus, the Deepsea Metro map has a completely different layout. Line A has four train paths at it's end. The first one leads to Line C that also leads to Lines B & F. The second one leads to Lines D & I. The third one leads to Lines G & E. The fourth one leads to Lines J & H. Also, the four Thangs are guarded by the Sanitized Octobosses rather than be at their own Stations.
There are unique Sanitized Octolings with a defective mutation used in the fight against Commander Tartar and the NILS Statue.
Normal Octarian Octolings' Octo Shots are black (in Octo Valley & Canyon plus the Octo Shot Replica), while Sanitized Octolings' are
olive-green (in Deepsea Metro), and Fuzzy Octolings' are copper (in Return of the Mammalians).
In "Return of the Mammalians", Agent 3's Ink color is always Yellow regardless of the Mission (Except for when fighting against Frye where it is Blue). Plus, Callie, Marie and Captain Sally's Ink colors are their classic Bright Pink, Fern Green and Orange respectively instead of Yellow. Also, Enemy Octolings use the Octo Weapons they obtained from Octo Canyon in After Alterna instead of the original Turf War designs, and the "Savage Octoling Goggles" have nanotech shutters in their lenses to reflect the wearer's emotions. Also, Captain Sally has a vastly different appearance consisting of uniquely designed Gear instead of the tattered clothes and sandals.
During the fight with Big Man, the Ink Color he uses is his signature Slate-Gray instead of Tie Dye Turquoise/Yellow.
Vent and Octrina help Agent 3 in the fight against Mr. Grizz in each respective phase. (The former while on the rocket, and both at the finale.)

Inkling & Octoling Life Cycles

This shows some aspects of how Inklings and Octolings grow and mature. (They are also able to produce disabilities similar to humans such as: autism, blindness, deafness & PTSD.)

Inklings are born with matching Ink and eye colors, but sometimes get matched with rarer eye colors (like brown eyes and blue Ink). They can control their squid-forms and change their Ink & eye colors at will at fourteen years of age. The Inkling's average lifespan is
seventy-nine to a hundred years, but can be longer by doing the sun-drying practice (only Cap'n Cuttlefish is known to have done this). An Inkling can grow to an average height of five to six feet tall (with the exception of Pearl who is four feet tall).
Octolings are born with Pink, Purple or Orchid Ink, but with differing eye colors and are immediately exposed to DJ Octavio's mind-control music. They have the same lifespan, growth and abilities as Inklings. Girls are sent to military and technological training at very young ages, while Boys are sent into labor services for the Octarian Army.

Community & Media

This is how I imagine parts of the Inklings' internet and entertainment.

Music is a massive part of Inkling society. With songs from Inkopolis and Splatsville's hit bands highly used in Turf War battles.
Video Games are also popular. With the various games released by Ancho-V, along with other developers.
Social Media is everyone's go-to entertainment sites, with the likes of "Splat-Stop" (parody of Twitter), 'Decalog" (parody of Discord), "Squid-Vids" (parody of YouTube), and "Swim-Dive" (parody of Twitch).
TV is a common pastime. The most popular TV-Show is "Splatty Toons" (which is actually the official Splatoon Manga as an action/comedy anime), along with Fresh Fish and "Callie-Dayz" (The TV drama that Callie stars in). Inkopolis News & Anarchy Splatcast are popular in the competitive Turf War scene, where news, live-streams and announcements of matches, tournaments and Splatfests are aired.
Websites are another source of news. The most popular site is "SplatNet", where Turf War-related news & topics can be viewed. It is also where Inklings & Octolings can enter and qualify into the competitive scene, either in Teams or solo. Inkopolis News & Anarchy Splatcast can be accessed from this site as well. As of the Inkopolis Square League, the website now has a Gear Shop ran by Annie & Moe.
Books are another common pastime and hobby in the forms of story books, novels, comics, manga, magazines and catalogs. While magazines and catalogs are for shopping advertisements for popular shopping centers, with the former focused on major fashion and Turf War info, and the later feature ads of store products and coupons for shops in Booyah Base, The Gallaria, Anarchy Aquisitions, Arowana Mall and MakoMart.

This Section is a showcase of Splatoon's Back-Story. Mainly: humanity's extinction, the evolution of sea-life & the Great Turf War.

Part 1: The Great Apocalypse

(Year: Unknown ~ 39XX A.D); After the gruesome conflicts of the third and fourth World Wars, there was a time of peace and innovation for humanity. Over a century, technology advanced at a remarkable pace. Leading to more efficient travel, production, entertainment, delivery methods, and also weaponry. But as prosperity grew, so did humanity's greed and lust. As the US was now the leading innovation industry and global power, China's surviving leaders got envious of them and proceeded to bomb Japan and Korea, who have become America's allies, while also invading Europe. America responded to this and declared war on China. Thus starting World War 5. Then, two years into the war, America was going to launch their most powerful nuclear bomb ever at the enemy, but an unexpected and critical GPS error on the bomb instead launched it at the Antarctic. US military analysis claimed that the resulting atomic blast will completely melt the continent in a matter of weeks and cause sea levels to rise to catastrophic proportions combined with years of global warming and humanity's many failed attempts to rid of it. America pleaded with the other countries and the enemy for a truce in hopes of avoiding potential extinction, which they agreed to. Asia began to construct dome-like cities underground while also building cryo-stasis pods, America gathered many of Earth's species, put them in
cryo-stasis, and boarded them onto a space shuttle dubbed the Ark Polaris to hopefully find a new planet to inhabit, while Europe's scientists studied marine-life to make DNA transplants in hopes of surviving and adapting to eventual life in the sea. But after the Ark Polaris successfully launched, natural disasters began to appear at destructive levels never seen before. Massive volcanic eruptions and earthquakes devoured towns, tornados and hurricanes with extreme wind speeds decimated coastal cities and the mainlands, a mass majority of the underground domes were crushed by the rapidly increasing water-pressure. If it weren't worse enough, the DNA transplant test subjects immediately died upon injection and the cryo-stasis pod factory was destroyed by an earthquake. So a bold scientist decided to create an AI codenamed "Tartar" and programmed it with humanity's history, knowledge and warnings to not make the same mistakes that brought their demise to the next intelligent species, and hid it away in an abandoned underwater subway, then he put his pet cat in a special cryo-stasis capsule that also acted as a cloning device, as he thought it would need company or if he didn't wake up. Soon after that, a vast majority of dry land was swallowed up by the sea and the surface became totally inhospitable to life, and the humans, and all remaining land animals went extinct.

Part 2: Humanity's Survival & Extinction

(Year: 39XX ~ 40XX A.D); Miraculously, against the odds calculated to be "42,793 to 1", a colony's worth of humans survived. Having found shelter in a cavern created by a now dead volcanic crater, it provided shelter from the wasteland that was now the surface, and the cave had a massive pool of seawater that contained marine life, which survived the Great Apocalypse, giving the surviving humans a source of food. After setting up makeshift shelters from salvaged materials, the surviving humans appointed scientists to lead and govern them into a brighter future, as they believed that science was the key to a new utopia. The scientists began to finish the new shelters and establish the cavern's ecosystem to sustain them, dubbing the colony "Alterna", and began the process of recreating the world they once knew. But they were infected by the uncureable sence of nostalgia, and began to 3D-print some of Earth's famous landmarks and artifacts such as the moai of Easter Island. They soon later created an AI to record any history and events it observed in the colony called the Omniscient Recording Computer of Alterna, or "O.R.C.A." for the task. Then, twenty-five years later, as life in Alterna progressed, one scientist discovered how to make liquid crystals from the body-fluids of squid. This new material had the ability to read minds and output imagery matching the individual's thoughts. Alterna's scientists were amazed by this new invention and began mass-producing the crystals, soon lining the walls and ceiling of the colony's dome. As the crystals gathered the citizens' thoughts, they projected a clear blue sky as it once was seen back on the surface long ago. And the humans could once again look up at the sky and feel at peace. The years then passed with prosperity as Alterna's population grew exponentially. With the colony's scientists now its elders, they believed that they fulfilled their duty for building their utopia, and began to select new individuals to succeed them. This new generation of scientists, born and raised within Alterna itself, proved to be as wise and conservative as the elders, but soon grew bored of seeing the fake sky, and believed they deserved to see the true reality outside the colony. But the elders warned them of the unimaginable dangers that awaited them there, but the young and brash scientists ignored them and began construction of a large rocket. But during a launch test, tragedy struck and the scientists finally saw the error of their ways. As the rocket's engines were ignited, the sudden blast of energy and heat overloaded the liquid crystals, unleashing a violent chain reaction causing the cavern's walls to collapse and shatter the dome's ceiling, raining debris down on the colonists. So Alterna, humanity's last beacon of hope for survival, was no more. And those who managed to escape the chaos soon followed it into death. And the humans now truly went extinct. But, the liquid crystals would change the world they originally knew in the far future and usher in a fresh new era... And O.R.C.A. was miraculously still operational and recording data, but in an offline state.

Part 3: Fresh New Life

(Year: 40XX A.D ~ 1910 M.E); As the walls of Alterna collapsed, thousands of liquid crystals, generator fuel and debris plunged into the water below, eventually drifting into the ocean. During this, the crystals shattered into microscopic fragments, all while still contacting humanity's thoughts of returning to the surface one day. Bit by bit, all manner of sea creatures absorbed and consumed them, until one day, they started to feel something fresh and new. Spurred by these impulses along with the radioactive debris floating in the ocean, the sea creatures began to evolve at a rapid pace. As the Earth was now no longer completely flooded, the creatures evolved for thousands of years. Far faster than humanity did. Until a point of no return came to their transformations. They exited through the vents and caves from the ruins of Alterna and never looked back, they arrived at their new utopia above the waves and began to adapt to the land and began to flourish, eventually exploring the entire world. The squids and octopuses, now the Inklings and Octarians respectively, started scavenging the ruined settlements of humanity for garbs to cover their bodies, new food sources, reverse-engineer human technology, search for new homes and adopting some of humanity's cultures and their calendar-style. Soon the region around the Crater above Alterna was named the Splatlands and given the nickname of "The Land of Fresh Beginnings" for the importance of their origin. Later, some other sea creatures arose in jellyfish, crustaceans, fish and many other species came in. Five-thousand years later, a peculiar Inkling was born. Rising to fame as a prophet and progenitor, he gave word of a prophecy; "Three lights unite to consume the disaster... Summon a titan fish to quench it" and passed it to three tribes in the region in: "shark tamers, eel dancers and a manta ray clan", while also declaring the time they now live in, starting that day, the "Mollusc Era". Hearing this, the new denizens of Earth constructed three shrines in the city for the prophecy and a memorial to remember him. Then one day, a century later in Inkadia, some Inklings were excavating a ruined laboratory where they found a white capsule-like device inside, containing something or someone within. They open it to see a being they had never seen before. They searched the device's data to figure out what the creature was; a cat named "Judd". The last land mammal. Judd surveyed his new surroundings and began to help the Inklings and Octarians in rebuilding the human cities and towns, the Inklings had also found fossils of humans while digging new foundations. Including a strange fax machine that was surprisingly still functional and somehow still received transmissions. Then one month later, an Inkling decided to go swim in the ocean by jumping off a dock, but to some bystanders' horror the Inkling dissolved into the water, dead. This shocking accident showed the Inklings and Octarians that they can no longer go back to their original home due to how they evolved, except for the jellyfish and Salmonids, who can still survive in water. But three months later, colonies of Inklings began fighting each other for more territory to own, leading more colonies to do the same. But they were all resolved days after. Centuries later, in 1910, the Inkling and Octarian societies of Inkadia were at an all time high. With 2nd Lieutenant Craig Cuttlefish of the Inklings' Squidbeak Splatoon and the Octarian Army's leader DJ Octavio, were having a good friendship and promised to help one another against the random Salmonid attacks that have ravaged coastal towns in recent times. But that friendship was going to be short-lived, as the first major war of The Mollusc Era was on the horizon, while Alterna's existence soon faded away from memory into urban myth.

Part 4: The Great Turf War

(Year: 1912 ~ 1915 M.E); A year after making his promise to Cuttlefish, Octavio began to envy how much more territory the Inklings had over him and his Octarians. He ordered his most skilled military mechanics to build massive weapons in preparation to declare war on the Inklings. The now-named Great Octoweapons were finished within a year, and in 1912, the Octarian Army surprise-attacked the Inklings' central stronghold; "Fort Tidebeak". Cuttlefish was shocked by his old friend betraying him, and declared war against the Octarians. Thus the "Great Turf War" began. The first battles of the war were won by the Octarians, due to the Inkling soldiers of the Squidbeak Splatoon being too lazy to wake up early for combat drills, counter enemy attacks and their Bamboozler rifles being ineffective against the Great Octoweapons' metal armor, along with their crushing loss at Arowana Castle. But in the third year of the war, at "The Battle of Mount Nantai", an Inkling soldier was hiding below one of the Great Octoweapons; "The Mighty Octostomp", where she pulled one of it's power-plugs in curiosity, leading to the metallic behemoth shutting down. With this discovery, she contacted Cuttlefish about the Octoweapons' weaknesses. The Inkling soldiers then charged at the remaining Octoweapons, pulling any plug they saw, while splatting many Octotroopers in their way. Octavio was shocked by the sudden loss of his most powerful assets and ordered all his remaining troops to retreat. With the Inklings' victory, Judd waved the Squidbeak Splatoon's flag for their win and Cuttlefish was praised as a hero and promoted to Captain. But Octavio vowed for revenge and hid him and his forces in their nearby bases in Octo Valley and Octo Canyon.

Part 5: Unseen New Threats

(Year: 39XX A.D ~ 2013 M.E); Meanwhile, as humanity started to thrive in Alterna, the Ark Polaris was on a stable voyage until, after reaching the Kuiper Belt, unexpectedly ran into a meteor shower. The crew managed to escape it, but at a cost. The shuttle's navigation systems got damaged beyond repair, so they decided to return to Earth, but when they went past the Moon, they realized it was all in vain, as the vessel ended up wasting all its fuel and couldn't attempt a landing. Leading the Ark Polaris to drift aimlessly in Earth's orbit for years, leading the human crew to die off due to drained life-support or old age, but the animals in cryo-stasis were still alive... And one dreamed to return to Earth. Ten-thousand years later, the Ark Polaris' orbit had gradually decayed, leading it to get trapped in Earth's gravity. During reentry, every single animal perished. But one survived as it crashed in the Salmonid Swim Zone of Inkopolis Bay, a grizzly bear. Fully awakened, he realized he was back on Earth, but not the one he knew. It was dominated by evolved sea creatures with no mammals around. He then salvaged the wreak of the Ark Polaris for navigation equipment to find Alterna, finding it in a demolished state. But a few of the liquid crystals remained there, as he repaired the colony's facilities to study them, with reconstruction taking centuries doing it all by himself. As he researched the crystals, he compounded some into his own fur, creating a new substance with one horrific property as he tested it on a random snail. It can turn any living creature into a mammal! Realizing its implications instantly, he could restore the planet to a Mammalian paradise, and began to stockpile the substance, now known as Fuzzy Ooze, in Alterna's surprisingly still intact rocket. But he needed a large amount of energy to make more Fuzzy Ooze and to power the rocket. So he set eyes on Inkopoils' Great Zapfish, but found out that it was stolen by the Octarians. So he planned to corrupt the entire Octarian Army with his Fuzzy Ooze so that they can steal it for him. But he needed more Golden Eggs from the Salmonids to make enough Ooze for the task. So in 2016, now known as Mr. Grizz, he founded the company "Grizzco Industries" to hire the locals to collect the Golden Eggs for him, and pay them handsomely for it. And carved a bear statue equipped with a radio to give out pre-recorded messages and hide his true persona. Meanwhile, during its time isolated underground, the AI made by the late professor watched as the Inklings' & Octarians' evolved, and was disgusted by it. So much, that it deemed them unworthy of its knowledge if they found it and proceeded to reprogram itself to set forth a plan to eradicate them and recreate life how it wanted it to be. It started by hacking into the media networks of the Inklings and Octarians with ads for a cutting edge subway system run by the company "Kamabo Corp.", which only garnered a mishmash of deepsea creatures and Octarians, as the Inklings ignored the ads and the AI decided to use the Octarians as the basis of its new life and their technological knowhow. Later, in 2012, deep in Octo Valley, DJ Octavio began hatching his revenge plan against the Inklings; secretly steal Inkopolis' Great Zapfish along with numerous lesser Zapfish and use them to revive the Great Octoweapons for the attack and power the Octarian Domes, as they were running low on artificial electricity. But even with his best military engineer "Marina Ida" rebuilding and upgrading the Octoweapons, it would take three years for the project to be finished.

Part 6: A Century of Peace

(Year: 1916 ~ 2013 M.E); Many events transpired in between the end of The Great Turf War and the start of the Turf War League. A year after the Inklings' victory in the Great Turf War, the city of Inkopolis was founded. 1972 ~ 1979 was Terror Finblade and his Lockjaw Gang's crime spree. Cap'n Cuttlefish preserved his body with the "sun-drying" practice so he can keep an eye on the Octarians longer and the Squidbeak Splatoon was disbanded in 1980. Pearl is born in 1996, Callie and Marie are born in 1998 a few months between each other, and Marina is born in 1999. Inkopolis' first "Youth Folk-Singing Contest" was held in 2002, which Callie and Marie won at the ages of 4. But in the 2009 Contest, Pearl, at the age of 13, nearly destroyed the auditorium with her extremely-loud voice. In 2012, Cap'n Cuttlefish, now age 125, caught word of his former friend's plot of revenge and built a shack in Octo Valley to keep an eye on the Octarians' movements, along with re-founding the Squidbeak Splatoon now as the more secretive "New Squidbeak Splatoon" and recruited his granddaughters, Callie and Marie, as Agents 1 & 2 respectively and gave each of them the Hero Roller and Hero Charger respectively as their own Weapons to fight the Octarians. Which were top-secret gifts from an old war-time friend; "Ammoses Shellendorf", who also gave him the Hero Shot to give to a future Agent. Then, in 2013, Inkopolis announces world-wide of a new Inkling-centered sport in the region; "Turf War", modernized versions of the territory battles of old, and that solo and Team entries will be open in late May 2015. Which got nearly every 12 year-old Inkling on the globe hooked and excited!

Thus, the story of Splatoon is about to begin!!

Story (S1)

PROLOGUE: The Start of Rivalry

(Year: 2014 ~ 2015 M.E); It was the start of the 2014 ~ 2015 school year in Wave County High. Sally was having her lunch when Hunter, a known bully, came to her and demanded her to do his school work and tests or he'll slam her head in the toilet if she told Principal Frillard or her parents on him. Sally agreed in fear for her life and did what he told her to do. Her parents were concerned with what happened to her there over Squidmas break. But it was in March that everything came to light. When in the school hallway, Hunter ordered Sally to do his biology test along with her's. Her anger skyrocketed and she grabbed and threw him into her locker and started bludgeoning him with a history book. School security stopped the fight as Sally and Hunter were sent to the principal's office while their parents were called to come and know what happened and pick them up. While Hunter went to the nurse for a bruised face and a severe concussion, Sally told Principal Frillard, Hunter's parents and her's about him threatening her to do his work for the entire school year. Her parents were horrified, while Hunter's parents were infuriated with him. Mr. Frillard finalized their consequences; Sally would immediately graduate, while Hunter would have to do all the assignments he forced Sally to do at home along with his upcoming ones. Sally would never show joy again, even barricading herself in her room to be left alone, to her Mom's concern, leading her to not go to her aunt and cousin's birthdays at her grandparents' residence. Later Sally demanded her parents to get her plane tickets to Inkopolis for her birthday, so she can compete in upcoming Turf War League. Hunter was grounded to do his school work. His parents even boarded up his windows and locked him in his room so he couldn't escape until his punishment was over. Sally swore to her parents as she headed for the taxi headed for the airport, that she'll be happy again only when Hunter is in jail for life.

CHAPTER 1: Plaza Beginnings

(Year: 2015 M.E); Inkopolis' hottest new sport: Turf War, has caught the attention of Inklings all over the world. Sally used the plane tickets she got to go there to enjoy a new life. She also brought her friends; Dylan, Sarah and Nick along to become a top Team. When they arrived in Inkopolis Plaza, they spotted nine other Teams hanging out, but one sparked Sally's rage. Blue Team, lead by none other than Hunter. She immediately went to him and kicked him in the crotch. Everyone was shocked by the act of violence and asked her why she did it. She said that they have a history and she did that for revenge. Inkopolis News started on the jumbotron and the hosts; Callie & Marie started with breaking news. A strange UFO crashed near a construction site and the Great Zapfish disappeared! Everyone in the Plaza ignored the news. Then, Marie announced the Qualifying Turf War matches which will be on Urchin Underpass, and the matchups being: Orange vs. Blue, Pink vs. Green, Purple vs. Turquoise, Yellow vs. Light Blue and Lime vs. Soda, while being commentated by Charles & April.

(Part 1: Qualifying Rounds); Judd then told everyone there through his telepathy about the rules and requirements to participate in Turf War, and pointed to the Plaza's strip mall: Booyah Base. Everyone purchased what they wanted but, there was a problem at Ammo Knights. The police were there because someone tried stealing a Custom Dual Squelcher from another customer. Sheldon told them that Cara, one of Hunter's Teammates did the attempt. The other Shopkeepers also told them that Blue Team was being disrespectful to them and their customers. So, Blue Team was given a trespass note from the mall. After that, everyone got on the bus to Urchin Underpass, with the matches going by swiftly and the Teams then got their starting Ranks. Afterwards, Sally shouted out to everyone in the Plaza that she demands the other Teams to challenge her's in Turf War, which they all agree to. Then, everyone got apartments near the Plaza. Meanwhile, Sally and her Team went with Nattily and her Team to the café in the Plaza to chat and relax in preparation for their upcoming battles.

(Part 2: vs. Lime Team); The next day, Dylan told Sally that he suggested that they should take on their challengers by highest to lowest Rank, which Sally aggrees saying "the lower-Ranked Teams will start fearing us that way." So their first challenger was the Rank S Lime Team, lead by Adam. He stated to Sally that his Team is as formidable as hers and requested to battle on Mahi-Mahi Resort. The Teams spawn in and start inking towards Mid at different paths. Sally encounters Frexa inking parts of Mid on a platform and throws a Suction Bomb to force her to jump over the water to splat her, but she tosses out her Splash Wall to protect her escape but only to get splatted by her while deploying it. Sally and Sarah take control of Mid together with Dylan helping from his Perch, but they failed to spot Matt who was attempting to ambush Dylan but he saw it coming and activated his Kraken to counter him. It was becoming a standstill at the midway point of the match, with more Turf available from the lowered water, as Nick and Tina both launched their Inkstrikes at it, while Sally and Adam were struggling to splat each other. At the one minute mark, Adam orders his Team to initiate their signature Battle Tactic: "Squeeze-Out" but only to get splatted while saying it, which lead to Sally ordering to initiate their own Battle Tactic: "All-Out Assault" and start to charge towards Lime Team's spawn, Specials ready. Adam respawns back only to get sniped by Sally's Inkzooka and Tina tries to splat them from the nearby hill but is immediately forced back by Sarah's Killer Wail. With thirty seconds left, Adam and Matt both activate their Kraken and Bubbler respectively in hesitation and charge in only for both of them to get pushed into the water by Sally and Dylan's shots. Nick and Sarah see Frexa secretly inking Turf on their side during the commotion, so Nick fires off an Inkstrike in front of Frexa while Sarah flanked her just at time ran out. Judd calculated the Turf-Scores and revealed that Orange Team won with 79.4% to Lime Team's 20.6%. Sally gave her Teammates thumbs-ups for their win, only for Adam and his Teammates to come over, offering handshakes for the good game, praising their intense playstyle. Orange Team then started to prepare for their next challenger: The energetic and stylish Purple Team!

(Part 3: vs. Purple Team); After their match with Lime Team, Orange Team set their sights on their next challenger; the Rank A+ Purple Team, lead by Tracey. She requested that they battle on Bluefin Depot and wished them good luck, but Sally just gave her a serious glance. The Teams spawn in and start inking towards both sides of Mid. Terry surprisingly splats Sarah from his Right-Perch with help from Mala, leading Purple Team to secure one side of Mid. On the other side, Sally splats Peter who was focusing on Dylan, but got splatted by Tracey in return, while ordering to initiate her Team's Battle Tactic: "Sweet Vengeance" and activates her Suction-Bomb Rush on to Dylan's position, forcing him to super jump back to spawn. At the midway point of the match, Purple Team has control on both sides of Mid and Orange Team's Court-Area and start heading towards their spawn, but while Tracey, Peter and Mala were crossing the grated ramp, Sally activates her Inkzooka and splats all three of them in one shot, leading Terry to super jump back. Sally then orders to initiate their Battle Tactic to make their counter-push, at the one minute mark, where Sarah fires her Killer Wail right at Purple Team's spawn to halt their return, while Nick fires off an Inkstrike towards a side of Mid. Peter tries to ambush Dylan with his Kraken, but Dylan counters back with his. With thirty seconds left, Tracey and Terry activate their Specials together to push back in, only to get splatted by another Inkstrike by Nick, which lead to Mala frantically try to launch a last-second Inkstrike, but got splatted by Sally before it even went off. Time ran out soon after that, and Judd calculated the Turf-Scores to declare a close win for Orange Team with 51.8% to Purple Team's 48.2%. Tracey congratulated Sally for her Team's win and giving her Team a "fun, but hectic match." Sally then started to focus on her Team's next challenger: The comeback kids of Yellow Team!

(Part 4: vs. Yellow Team); One hour later, Sally and her Team started stratigizing for their match against the Rank A Yellow Team, lead by May. Soon after they finished their discussion, May came towards them and wished them good luck and requested to battle on Camp Triggerfish. The Teams spawn in and start inking towards each other's side of Mid to set up their defense, but Steve splats Dylan there and activates his Echolocator. May was covering Turf away from deadly engagements while Kyle inked Orange Team's side from his Perch. The Teams then got locked in a stalemate for a minute. Meanwhile, at the 1:30 mark, Sarah and Nick snuck toward Yellow Team's Fort to flank onto their side and successfully splat both Steve and Kyle. With one minute left, the floodgates to each Teams' side dropped down, leading May ordering her Teammates to initiate their Battle Tactic: "Underdog Boost" to mount their comeback while Sally initiated her's, ordering her Teammates to split up and attack Yellow Team's Court-Area from both sides of the Stage. Sarah fired her Killer Wail straight at Yellow's Court-Area to scatter them, while Nick fires off an Inkstrike at their Lake Bed-Area. But Ava was ready to splat them with her Inkzooka behind her Splash Wall, were Sally suddenly threw a Suction Bomb from their Fort at the Splash Wall to instantly splat Ava, leading May to panic-activate her Bubbler to take on Dylan's Kraken. With thirty seconds left, Steve activates his Echolocator from his Spawn-Perch only to get splatted by Sally's Inkzooka. Kyle then fires off a last-second Inkstrike just as time ran out, hoping it was enough. But it was for nothing as Judd declared Orange Team the victor with 86.3% to Yellow's 13.7%. May was disappointed but still congratulated Sally for her win. When they returned to Inkopolis Plaza, Orange Team began to prepare for their next challenger: The skilled stunt-squids of Turquoise Team!

(Part 5: vs. Turquoise Team); A while later, Orange Team was stratigizing for their next challenger when suddenly, they heard a commotion in the Plaza. They went to see what was going on, only to see the Leader of their next challenger; Mia of the Rank A- Turquoise Team, showing off her roller skating tricks in front of a large group. She spots Sally in the crowd and rolls toward her to offer a generous handshake, but Sally instead asked why she wasn't practicing with her Team. Mia said that she roller skates before Turf War to "bring her mojo into battle" and that she also wants to battle on Flounder Heights. When they arrived, the Teams spawn in and headed out at the sound of the bell and start inking towards Top-Mid. It was only twenty seconds into the match as Orange Team suddenly gets marked by Mia's Echolocator, which forced them to reroute their push, but Sarah was already climbing up a wall to ambush Turquoise Team's Roof and got splatted by Jake. Then at the 1:30 mark, Mia calls for her Teammates to initiate their Battle Tactic: "Stunt Shot" to put pressure on Orange Team and activates her Echolocator again. Chris tries to ambush Dylan but gets splatted by his Kraken. Sarah and Della engage each other in Turquoise Team's Court-Area, where Della activates her Bubbler to survive and attempts splat her, but Sarah Fires her Killer Wail right at Della to push her out of her Squiffer's range and also splat her when her Bubbler ran out, and Sarah also splatted Mia who tried to ambush her. Now with a numbers advantage and one minute left in the match, Sally orders her Teammates to initiate their Battle Tactic and start their push. Sally and Dylan stay on Top-Mid to support Sarah and Nick as they charged into Turquoise Team's Pit-Area. Nick fires off an Inkstrike to scatter them while Sally takes out Mia and Della with her Inkzooka as they tried to slip past her. Chris attempts to flank them with his own Inkzooka but is forced to retreat by Dylan's Kraken. With thirty seconds left, Jake activates his Splat-Bomb Rush in an attempt to force Sarah and Nick to retreat, in which they do, but only to fire off their Specials. Time then ran out and Judd calculated the Turf-Scores and declared that Orange Team had won with 64.8% to Turquoise Team's 35.2%. Mia gave Sally a thumbs-up and then strolled off to figure out how to improve her Team for the future, while Sally started to plan for her next challenger: The camo-crusaders of Green Team!

(Part 6: vs. Green Team); Half an hour later, Orange Team got set up to take on their next challenger; the Rank B+ Green Team, lead by Nattily. She meets them and requests that they battle on Arowana Mall. When they arrived, they spawned in and headed out at the sound of the bell. Both Teams knew that the side that took control of Mid and the opponent's Closed-Alley would get a big advantage, so both Teams split up. Sally, Sarah, Andy and Gwen headed through their Pit and Court Areas toward Mid, while Dylan and Nattily headed toward their respective Perches, and Nick and Paul headed through their Closed-Alleys. Orange Team arrived at Mid first to encounter Nattily ordering her Teammates to initiate their Battle Tactic: "Hunt or Be Hunted" and start holding their positions, but she gets immediately sniped by Sally's Inkzooka. Sarah climbs toward Green Team's Closed-Alley to encounter Paul who then hits her with a Disruptor and splats her. At the two minute mark, the Teams were at a stalemate, repeatedly trading splats when suddenly, at the one minute mark, Dylan splats both Andy and Gwen with his Kraken after they splatted Nick and tried to ambush him through their Closed-Alley, and Sally splatted Nattily with her Inkzooka again. Realizing that he's outnumbered, Paul super jumps back to spawn so Green Team can mount their defense and attempt a comeback. Orange Team initiated their Battle Tactic and began their push into Green Team's spawn. Sarah fired her Killer Wail through the middle of the Stage to split up Green's defenses, while Nick fires off an Inkstrike. Nattily fires her own Killer Wail through her Closed-Alley to prevent Orange Team from pushing through there, while Gwen and Paul both activate their Specials together and Andy fires off a last-second Inkstrike to finally finish the match as time ran out. Judd calculated the Turf-Scores and concludes that Orange Team defeated Green Team with a 0.5% gap! He shows the totals as 41.2% to 40.7! Nattily was both astonished and disappointed in the results and complemented how foolproof Orange Team's aggressive strategy is and says that she hopes to one day defeat them. With a close win, Sally then set her eyes on her Team's next challenger: The slip-groove peeps of Pink Team!

(Part 7: vs. Pink Team); After a quick lunch-break, Orange Team began planning their match with their next challenger; the Rank B- Pink Team, lead by Rick. When they met him, Rick requested that they battle on Blackbelly Skatepark and to wish them good luck in the match and that they're gonna need it. The Teams spawn in at the sound of the bell and head out towards Top-Mid. Rick then suddenly orders his Team to initiate their Battle Tactic: "Dance-Fight" to distract Orange Team. Dylan sets himself up on Top-Mid and sees Josh doing back-flips and Slosher-spins, but his tricks didn't fool Dylan as he splats Josh. Sarah heads through Pink Team's Half-Pipe to see Elly swimming over them like a skateboarder but gets splatted. Then, at the two minute mark, Nick and Ovie get locked in a standoff until Rick ambushes Nick and splats him. At the 1:30 mark, Sally attempts to splat Rick but he suddenly super jumps away. Sally watches his trajectory and finds out that he's jumping to one of the Squid Beakons he hid on her Team's side of the Stage. Sally warns Dylan about it, and just in time. Rick had flanked and climbed up Top-Mid to ambush Dylan but he immediately activates his Kraken to splat him. Nick pinpoints where Rick's other two Squid Beakons are and fires off an Inkstrike towards them, and splats Josh in the process of his landing. Now with one minute left and a numbers advantage, Sally orders her Teammates to initiate their Battle Tactic and begin to push towards Pink Team's spawn. With thirty seconds remaining, Ovie and Elly try to flank them through Pink Team's Half-Pipe but get splatted by Sarah's Killer Wail. Cornered, Rick and Josh charge their Specials from their spawn and activate them but had to withdraw due to Dylan's Kraken. But Josh escapes by Pink Team's Ledge and attempts to fire off a last-second Inkstrike but is instantly splatted by Sally's Inkzooka. Time then ran out and Judd calculated the Turf-Scores to reveal that Orange Team won with a whopping 94.6% to Pink Team's 5.4%. Rick thanked them for the "crazy-intense" match and then rode off on his skateboard. Orange Team then prepared to get ready for their next challenger: The chillin' & splattin' Light Blue Team!

(Part 8: vs. Light Blue Team); A while later, Orange Team was gearing up for their next challenger; the Rank C+ Light Blue Team, lead by Hal. He claims that he won't easily admit defeat due to his Team's low Rank and requests to battle on Museum d'Alfonsino. The Teams then headed there by bus and got ready on their respective Spawn Points. They then headed out at the sound of the bell and start inking towards Mid from different paths. Hal and his Teammates Lara and Ned arrived at Mid first and immediately get splatted by Sally and Dylan. Marcy was stationed at her Team's Windmill and activates her Echolocator before she super jumped back to spawn so she won't get splatted too. Seeing that they can push, Sally orders her Teammates to initiate their Battle Tactic and start piling pressure on Light Blue Team. Hal respawns at the 1:30 mark and sees the opportunity to initiate his Team's Battle Tactic: "Crash Course" to potentially counter Orange Team's aggressive strategy. Hal activates his Burst-Bomb Rush but is taken out by Dylan's Kraken. Later at the one minute mark, Lara fires off her Killer Wail from her Closed to scatter Orange Team but is soon targeted and splatted by Nick's Inkstrike. With thirty seconds left, Ned activates his Bubbler and chains it on Hal who also activates his Burst-Bomb Rush to try to splat Sarah at Light Blue's Windmill, but she fires her Killer Wail right at them leading Ned to get pushed into the water. But Hal survives, only to get splatted by Sally's Inkzooka just as time ran out. Judd calculated the Turf-Scores and dubs Orange Team the winner with 89.9% to Light Blue Team's 7.5%. Hal was baffled by Orange Team's confidence under pressure and went off with his Team to practice harder in hopes of beating them. Sally then set gaze at her Team's penultimate challenger: The crazy & excitable Soda Team!

(Part 9: vs. Soda Team); Leaving a trail of domination behind them, Orange Team set eyes on their penultimate challenger; the Rank C Soda Team, lead by Max. He states to Sally that his Team has potential, despite their low Rank and requests to battle on Ancho-V Games. The Teams arrived and spawned in and headed out at the sound of the bell. Orange Team quickly took over Mid and fully wiped Soda Team and start charging their Specials and pushing towards their spawn. Max and his Team respawn and he orders them to initiate their Battle Tactic: "Jet Stream" to try to bait Orange Team into an ambush. The plan then backfires on them when Orange Team reach Soda's Court Area and activate all their Specials in unison and splat all of Soda Team again. With 1:30 left in the match, Soda Team activate their Specials to attempt a comeback, but Orange Team just dodges them all and continues their pressure for the rest of the match. Judd calculated the Turf-Scores and revealed that Orange Team won with a whopping 97.5% to Soda Team's measly 2.5%. Max was upset that he was defeated and didn't show his Team's potential, and stormed off with his Teammates to hopefully get better at Turf War. Orange Team now has one last challenger to face. The worst Team in the Plaza, and Orange Team's arch-rival: Blue Team. And Sally furiously wanted them to feel the pain of complete annihilation and utter defeat...

(Part 10: vs. Blue Team); It was time for Orange Team to fight their final challenger; the Rank C- Blue Team, lead by Sally's archenemy, Hunter. When the Teams met in the Plaza, Hunter started taunting them by calling their win-streak "a fluke and that they are complete frauds" and that he only challenged them as payback for their qualifying match. Sally answered back by kicking him in the crotch like usual and yelling at the top of her lungs at him saying to "prove it." Hunter requested to fight on Saltspray Rig and threatened to pull down Sally's shorts if he wins. The threat to her modesty threw Sally into a fiery rage and grabbed Hunter by his jacket collar and slams him head-first into the pavement and stomped on his face. Hunter reformed out of his puddle of Ink and shouted that "IT'S ON" and the Teams proceeded to the boats for the ride to the Stage. When the bell sounded, the Teams headed out to take control of both Mid and the Container-Court Areas. Orange Team arrived there first and easily took control of it but Blue Team was there to ambush them on their Perch and Wall only for all of them to get splatted by Sally's Inkzooka, and then orders to initiate her Team's Battle Tactic. Pissed-off, Hunter ordered his Teammates to initiate their Battle Tactic: "If Ya Can't Win..." with the "Fight Dirty" option. At the 1:30 mark, Cara encountered Sarah inking Blue's Court-Area and called to her from her Spawn-Alley saying that she's a dummy to get her attention to splat her, but she kept missing her, which prompted Sarah to tease her saying she "can successfully hit the
port-side of a luxury cruise ship." Cara got furious and activates her Kraken but gets pushed off by Sarah's perfectly timed Killer Wail. Meanwhile, Xavier activates his Echolocator and decided to take on Dylan, who was in Bottom-Mid. Xavier calls him a "halibutt" and attacks him, only to get splatted by Dylan's Kraken. Then, Justice was hiding in Container-Court, inking from the top of the containers and spots Nick approaching her. She activates her Bubbler, but is caught by suprise as Nick fired off an Inkstrike towards her. She tried to run away, but is launched off the Stage from the conflicting Specials. When she respawns, she starts to panic and remains at Blue Team's Spawn Point for the rest of the match. With one minute left, Hunter super jumps to one of Cara's Squid Beakons hidden in Container-Court and spots Sally in Mid. Hunter fires his Killer Wail at her, but she dodges it and proceeded to engage her bitter-rival. Hunter throws his Burst Bombs and fires random Blaster shots at her but she avoided the barrage and splats him. With ten seconds left, Nick fires off a final Inkstrike at Blue Team's spawn-platform just as time ran out. Judd then calculated the Turf-Scores and dubs Orange Team the unanimous victor with an astounding 99.8% to Blue Team's 0.2%. When the Teams returned to the Plaza, Adam came running towards Sally in a state of amazement. He stated that he was monitoring Orange Team's battle stats on SplatNet from his phone after his Team's match with her's and revealed that Orange Team had reached Rank S+ 99 in a single day! Every other Team that Orange Team faced came and congratulated them as the greatest Team in the Plaza! But Blue Team wasn't happy with the news. Hunter was furious and demanded for a rematch, but Sally kicked him in the crotch again and yelled "KNOW YOUR PLACE, WEAKLING" at him. Hunter stormed off with his Teammates and vows for revenge against her one day while giving her the "Rotten" gesture as he went to his apartment. Meanwhile, during the commotion of the other Teams' cheers of Sally's huge accomplishment, an old Inkling Man peeks from the manhole and spots Sally while saying to himself; "She's the one..."

CHAPTER 2: Octo Valley

(Year: 2015 M.E); Sally was chilling in her apartment, reminiscing about destroying Blue Team and her Team rising to S+ 99 to become the best Team in Inkopolis. When she got her Inkopolis Plaza Monthly magazine, she also got a strange letter saying to meet them via the manhole is the Plaza. She decided to find out who sent the message and went through the manhole finding Octo Valley, an area far away from Inkopolis. She finds an old Inkling man who says his name is Cap'n Cuttlefish and that he sent the letter to her, seeing powerful skill within her. He tells her that it was the Octarians who were behind the disappearance of the Great Zapfish and says they did it as revenge for their loss in the Great Turf War 100 years ago. Sally aggrees to help and Cuttlefish gives her the Hero Suit and Hero Shot and dubs her Agent 3, then she sets out with Cuttlefish giving her advice on how to progress.

(Part 1: Area 1); Cap'n Cuttlefish tells Agent 3 about the hidden Octarian hideouts containing the Zapfish required to open the Boss Kettle in order to proceed and how to find them. She finds the first mission codenamed; Octotrooper Hideout, and enters it. Agent 3 easily took out the scouts of Octotroopers and claims it's Zapfish. After returning, Cuttlefish congratulated her and pinpoints the next two missions' locations. She then claims their Zapfish easily. With the three Zapfish, the Boss Kettle opens up and Agent 3 enters it to see a Zapfish get snatched by a large Octo tentacle in a massive cube, when suddenly it comes to life as the Octostomp. Cuttlefish tells Agent 3 that to defeat him, she needs to splat the tentacle on his back. Agent 3 figures out that she needed to swim and climb up Octostomp's body after he does his face-stomp attack. But as she was about to climb up, Octostomp felt what she was doing and got back up to shake her off while blasting off all but three of the panels on his three sides, which began to move. Agent 3 easily climbed and destroys him to save the Zapfish he stole. Cuttlefish contacts her afterwards for a report and theorized that the Octarians were using the Zapfish they stole to revive the Great Octoweapons in preparation for an attack on Inkopolis. Agent 3 vowed to prevent that and proceeded to the next Area.

(Part 2: Area 2); Agent 3 arrived in Area 2 when Cuttlefish contacted her saying that the Area's Boss Kettle needed six Zapfish this time. So, she proceeded to the next mission codenamed; Floating Sponge Garden, where she parkoured through it to claim it's Zapfish, then proceeded to save the other five missions' Zapfish to open the second Boss Kettle. After she entered it, she spots a rusty, seaweed covered pillar in the center of a basin of Octarian ink that suddenly started moving. Cuttlefish describes it as the Octonozzle and warns Agent 3 about its snot-ball attacks. Agent 3 figured out that she can't climb it, as it was high up and the lower parts of its body were narrow and uninkable, when she suddenly noticed that there were suction-cups poking out of them. She charged in and splatted them, leading to it getting stunned and drop down, leading Agent 3 to take it out and saves the Zapfish that was powering it. Afterwards, Cap'n Cuttlefish called her for another report when a mysterious villain interupted them, but it's voice quality was so bad that Cuttlefish thought his radio receiver was malfunctioning. So he ordered Agent 3 to investigate the next Area.

(Part 3: Area 3); Agent 3 arrived in Area 3 to find out it's Boss Kettle needed another six Zapfish. She proceeded to the closest mission codenamed; Flooder Junkyard, which was swarming with Flooders. Agent 3 avoided their sights to claim the Zapfish. Then, she claimed the remaining five Zapfish to open the third Boss Kettle to take on the Octowhirl. In a difficult few dodges, Agent 3 figured out that she needed to immobilize it by making it charge into her Ink, which she easily does due to her Turf War experience and destroys it to save its Zapfish. Cuttlefish called her again for another report and tells her about calling in Agents 1 & 2, but then the mysterious villain from earlier kidnaps him mid conversation. Agent 3 immediately super jumped back to Cuttlefish Cabin to see what happened to him, only to find it deserted. So she went to investigate the next Area without him, as two individuals exited the manhole and spotted her.

(Part 4: Area 4); After arriving in Area 4, Agent 3 is contacted by Agents 1 & 2 who agree to help her in the Cap'n's place. Agent 2 then tells Agent 3 to find the next six Zapfish to open the fourth Boss Kettle. Agent 3 then proceed to the mission codenamed; Propeller-Lift Fortress and successfully reached and claimed it's Zapfish after a long climb and waves of Octarians. After claiming four of the remaining five Zapfish,
Agent 3 enters the remaining mission only to find herself in a pre-Turf War Urchin Underpass and spots a massive Octarian that Agent 2 says is an Octostriker and warns her about the Inkstrikes it fires and advised her to use stealth tactics to avoid detection, but Agent 3 instead
brute-forces her way through the Octarians' defenses while dodging the Inkstrikes and defeats the Octostriker on the UFO to claim the Area's last Zapfish to open the Boss Kettle. When she entered it, she finds a monster-sized mechanical fish called the Octomaw as it suddenly swam towards her and prepared to snatch her in its maws. But Agent 3 destroyed all of its teeth and escaped to toss a Seeker right as it reemerged. But the blast only disoriented it, as it swam away and suddenly gets a new set of teeth that were more durable and fired them into the air. The teeth targeted Agent 3 and opend up to reveal cannons which fired at her. She dodges them as they returned to the Octomaw as it prepared to swim toward her again. This time Agent 3 dodges it while destroying some of its teeth and bombarded its mouth with Splat Bombs, completely destroying it. After saving its Zapfish, Agents 1 & 2 checked in on her only for the mysterious villain to interupt again stating that Inkopolis is doomed and his for the taking. Agent 1 demanded him to give back the Great Zapfish and the Cap'n, but was met with silence. Agent 2 traced its signal to the final Area. Agent 3 proceeded there immediately after the call.

(Part 5: Area 5); After arriving, Agent 2 told Agent 3 that the final Boss Kettle is high above Octo Valley on a UFO and that there are six Zapfish left to save for it to open and activate the launchpad to it. She clears the mission codenamed; Pinwheel Power Plant and claims its Zapfish and the four more afterwards. There was one Zapfish left and Agent 3 enters the final mission, only to find herself on Saltspray Rig. She starts following the trail of Power Eggs while taking out Octolings. As she entered Container-Court, she spots an Elite Octoling near the Zapfish, who suddenly shouts that her name is Octrina and challenges Agent 3 to a dual. She accepts and engages as Agent 2 warns her that Octrina is the most elite of the Octolings. Agent 3 and Octrina start duking it out, but Octrina gets splatted by Agent 3's Inkzooka, leading her to claim the Zapfish and tells Agents 1 & 2 that she won due to her superior skill. Then, the launchpad activates and the final Boss Kettle opens, and Agent 3 heads there to finish her mission and save the Cap'n and the Great Zapfish.

(Part 6: A Remixed Showdown); Finally, Agent 3 finds the Great Zapfish, but Cap'n Cuttlefish shouts to her that it was a trap planned by the Octarian leader; DJ Octavio, who uses the Great Zapfish to power his Octobot King and fights Agent 3. Later in the fight, Octavio's music suddenly stops, then the Calamari Inkantation plays while Agents 1 & 2 reveal their true identities; Callie & Marie of The Squid Sisters! Their song strengthens Agent 3 to put a stop to Octavio as the Sisters jumped to her donning their own Hero Suits, changing their Ink color to Orange and fended off the swarms of Octarians with their Hero Roller and Hero Charger respectively, while Agent 3 focused on Octavio. Now on the ropes, DJ Octavio prepared to fire off his self-proclaimed "Beatdown Drop Missile" at them. But Marie activated her Bubbler and chained it with Callie and Agent 3 to defend each other as Agent 3 shot at it to force it back at Octavio again, but he used one of his Octobot King's fists to punch it back, then Callie activated her Burst-Bomb Rush to force it back again, but Octavio punched it back once more, leading Marie to snipe it back. Octavio tried to punch it back again, but couldn't as the Octobot King was reloading new fists, and his Missile struck it, leading Octavio to be flung out of his DJ booth. Cap'n Cuttlefish ordered Agent 3 to finish the job, and strikes him with her Inkzooka, launching him back into the Octobot King and bounced out of it, leading to one of his pieces of wasabi getting loose and landing on the self-destruct button, freeing the Great Zapfish in a glorious blast of Orange Ink. All three Agents freed Cuttlefish as he thanked Agent 3 for helping him. Then they headed over to Octavio, who was now unconscious, and wondered on how to prevent him from threatening Inkopolis again. Everyone then headed home for the night while the Squid Sisters air a late night broadcast informing the Great Zapfish has returned to Inkopolis Tower and play "Maritime Memory" at the end. While Octavio is imprisoned in a snow globe under Cuttlefish's watch. But unbeknownst to any of them, Octolings were strangely disappearing from Octarian society due to listening to the Calamari Inkantation during Octavio's "concert". Including a famous
high-ranking Elite Octoling engineer named "Marina Ida", who had a side-hobby for music. Also, some minor Octarian Soldiers and Octolings were disappearing in mass as well (by Commander Tartar).

CHAPTER 3: The Inkopolis Plaza Open

(Year: 2016 M.E); It was a normal Monday in Inkopolis Plaza when Inkopolis News came on and announced a big Tournament being held on that weekend called, "The Inkopolis Plaza Open." Being commented by Charles, April and the Squid Sisters. Which will stream live on TV and social media, with the Seeding Matches and the Quarterfinals taking place on Friday, and the Semis and Grands the following day.

(Part 1: Turf War Seeding Matches); The Teams that entered the Tournament were; Orange, Blue, Pink, Green, Purple, Turquoise, Yellow and Lime, as the Tournament was a Bracket of 8 Seeds. The commentators said the Seeding Matches will be Turf War on Urchin Underpass, with the matchups being; Orange vs. Blue, Pink vs. Green, Yellow vs. Turquoise and Purple vs. Lime. The competing Teams had their own tents set up in the Plaza to plan out strategies, while Charles went over the rules of Turf War to the viewers.

(Part 1.1: Orange vs. Blue); It was the Orange vs. Blue matchup first. The Teams spawned in and headed out at the sound of the bell. Orange Team headed towards Mid and completely take it over, while Blue Team engage through different paths only for all of them to get splatted. Orange Team immediately charge Blue Team's base and completely block off their escape routes for the rest of the match. Judd calculated the Turf scores as 94.5% for Orange Team, and 3.1% for Blue Team. The commentators then discussed about the match with Sally. She stated to them that she only relys on her Teammates skill and support, and that her grudge with Blue Team fuels her aggression. Callie then revealed that Orange Team has claimed the 1-Seed, while Blue Team gets the 8-Seed.

(Part 1.2: Pink vs. Green); Next up was the Pink vs. Green matchup. The Teams spawned in and headed out at the sound of the bell. Pink Team inks up their side of the Stage on the way to Mid. While Green Team set up their defenses at Mid and their Alleyway. A minute into the match, Pink Team initiates their Battle Tactic to distract Green Team as Rick attempted to flank Nattily, but Gwen caught sight of him and used her Inkzooka to splat him. With 1:30 left in the match Nattily and Andy both activate their Specials to begin their push into Pink Team's base. When they reached Pink's spawn with one minute left, they were met by a barrage of Specials but survived with the aid of Paul's Bubbler. Time soon ran out, and Judd calculated the Turf scores as 42.9% for Pink Team, and 55.7% for Green Team. Nattily discussed about the match with the commentators after the results reveal. She stated that she relies on her Teammates to help with defense and wait to strike at the right moment. Marie then revealed that Pink Team gets the 7-Seed, while Green Team claims the 4-Seed.

(Part 1.3: Yellow vs. Turquoise); Later, the Yellow vs. Turquoise matchup was about to start. The Teams spawned in and headed out at the sound of the bell. Turquoise Team quickly overwhelmed Yellow Team and pressured them into choke-points and ambushes for a majority of the match. But at the one minute mark, May chains her Bubbler with Ava to splat most of Turquoise Team. The Teams landed in a stalemate in Mid for the last thirty seconds of the match, where Kyle fired off a last-second Inkstrike just as time ran out. Judd calculated the Turf scores once more to reveal that Yellow Team had lost with 35.9% to Turquoise Team's 40.3%. Mia discussed about the match with the commentators that she and her Teammates persevere in battle with their skill and composure. Charles then revealed that Yellow Team gets the 5-Seed, while Turquoise Team claims the 3-Seed.

(Part 1.4: Purple vs. Lime); It was time for the final match of the Seeding Matches! With the Purple vs. Lime matchup soon going underway. The Teams spawned in and headed out at the sound of the bell. Lime Team gained a quick lead over Purple Team, which lasted for half of the match. But Purple Team hesitated at the 1:10 mark where they activated all their Specials together to make a last minute counter-push. But it was met by Lime Team dodging them and answering back with their Specials. Time then ran out and Judd calculated the Turf scores and revealed that Purple Team lost with 35.6% to Lime Team's 64.4%. Adam discussed about the match with the commentators that his plan was to use their pressure-based playstyle to claim victory. April then revealed that Purple Team gets the 6-Seed, while Lime Team claims the 2-Seed. Now with all eight Teams Seeded, the bracket-run of the Tournament was about to begin!

(Part 2: Splat Zones Quarterfinals); Charles announced the Stages for the Splat Zones Quarterfinals as; Saltspray Rig, Port Mackerel, Mahi-Mahi Resort, Hammerhead Bridge and Moray Towers, along with all the Tournament-Phases will be in a "Best of 5" format and that the Teams who finished in 5th ~ 8th will get rewarded with 100,000 Cash. Then April discussed about the rules for Splat Zones while the Teams stratigized.

(Part 2.1: Orange vs. Blue - Round 1); It was Orange vs. Blue first, but before the first round, Hunter was getting frustratingly anxious about his Team's matchup against Orange Team again, when suddenly a mysterious hooded figure called to him from a back alley. The individual states to him that she is called; "The Manipulator" and that she can help make his Team win for a payment of 1,000,000 Cash. Hunter got greedy and chose a cheat called "Insta-Ink". The Manipulator thanked him for doing business, but demanded him to promise not to mention her if he eventually got caught, which he annoyingly agreed to. Later, their match on Saltspray Rig started and as the bell sounded, the entire stage got covered in Blue Ink in an instant, including the Zone. Orange Team was trudging through the Ink as their own Ink also turned Blue the moment it touched the ground. Blue Team won by Knockout but were disqualified for illegal sabotage and didn't get their prize, which granted Orange Team to move on to the Semi-Finals. The Tournament was temporarily postponed for a courtroom session to discuss Blue Team's interrogation and punishment. Hunter was sent to the witness stand and asked how his Team got access to the cheat. He only stated that he got it from an "undisclosed source." The lawyers declared Blue Team guilty and announced that they will be completely banned from Turf War and ordered to return their belongings to Booyah Base by mail, be put on house arrest for two years with security, never to own or buy Turf War-grade Weapons and Gear as their probation and have no contact with Orange Team at all. This still didn't give Sally joy at all, as she still wanted him in jail for life. When the former-Blue Team members were being moved out of the courtroom, Hunter yelled at Sally saying "This isn't over."

(Part 2.2.1: Lime vs. Pink - Round 1); After the courtroom session, the Tournament resumed with Lime and Pink Teams discussing strategies for their first match. The Teams then arrived at Saltspray Rig and headed out at the sound of the bell. Pink Team takes control of the Zone first and push into Lime Team's base but Frexa avoids them by Sharking by the Zone and takes control of it while they were pushing and fires her Killer Wail right at them from a flank, splatting all of them. Lime Team then started to push into Pink Team's base while activating their Specials to splat or deeter them away until the Lime Team's Zone-Counter reached 0 with 2:10 left on the the clock. Judd declared Lime Team the victor by Knockout over Pink Team's Score of 38. "So far, Lime Team is ahead 1-0 over Pink Team. They need to mount some kind of comeback soon!", stated April as the Teams went back to their tents to stratigize for their next match.

(Part 2.2.2: Lime vs. Pink - Round 2); Prepared for a easy victory, Adam was in high spirits for the next Round against Pink Team, which was going to be on Port Mackerel. Charles stated that the Stage has two Zones instead of one and that a Team needs to capture both of them to start depleting their Zone-Counter. The Teams spawn in and headed out at the sound of the bell to take the Zones. Both Teams take control of the Zones on their side of the Stage and then get into standoffs in Mid. At the four minute mark, Tina fires off an Inkstrike at Pink Team's Zone to take control of it. Frexa then fires her Killer Wail at Rick and Ovie, splatting them both. Adam orders his Teammates to initiate their Battle Tactic and start pushing into Pink Team's base. Later into the match at the 1:14 mark, just as Lime Team's Zone-Counter was about to reach 0, Josh fires off his Inkstrike at Lime Team's Zone to stop their Counter at 3, then Elly takes her Team's Zone through Left-Alley and splat both Adam and Frexa with a flank. Rick then places some Squid Beakons in Mid while he and his Team pushed into Lime Team's base with the help of his Killer Wail. The match then went into Overtime as Pink Team was still in control. Lime Team made a desperate push, but get splatted by Ovie's Kraken and Elly's Inkzooka. Pink Team then took the lead to win the match. Judd declared Pink Team the victor with a Score of 98 to Lime Team's Score of 97. "That match was heated! Pink Team has tied it 1-1!", exclaimed Callie. Adam and his Team went back to their tent to stratigize for the next match and prevent Pink Team from making a comeback.

(Part 2.2.3: Lime vs. Pink - Round 3); Later, Rick was talking with Sally asking for strats to beat Lime Team on their favorite Stage in the next Round; Mahi-Mahi Resort. She just said to "give it your all" in a scolding tone. Then, the Teams arrived at the Stage to spawn in and start inking towards the Zone. Lime Team immediately takes the Zone and completely wipes Pink Team. Suddenly, when Lime Team's Zone-Counter reached 60, the water lowered to reveal more Turf. But later into the match, at the 2:10 mark, Pink Team simultaneously activate their Specials at the Zone and take it over, even splatting three Lime Team members in the process. Pink Team then took the lead with 1 minute left. Frexa snuck past Pink Team's assault and took back the Zone to bring the match into Overtime, but had to chip away at their Zone-Counter's Penalty. Rick charged back at the Zone while Josh fired an Inkstrike at it to take control of it to end the match. Judd declared Pink Team the victor with a Score of 95 to Lime Team's 90. "We might get an upset the way this Round is shaping up! Pink Team is up 2-1.", said Marie with glee. Adam was getting concerned and frustrated with a potential loss on his Team's hands. The only hope he wants, is to go out with a bang.

(Part 2.2.4: Lime vs. Pink - Round 4); Lime Team's Semi-Finals hopes was down to the wire going into the next match on Hammerhead Bridge. The match soon started and the Teams proceeded towards Mid to take the Zone. Pink Team claims it but Lime Team kept neutralizing it, but couldn't fully capture it due to Pink Team's constant Turf output for the rest of the match. Time later ran out, and Judd declared Pink Team the victor with a Score of 50 to Lime Team's Score of 0! The commentators were shocked that Pink Team just upset Lime Team 3-1, granting them to move on to the Semi-Finals! Adam was disappointed, but congratulated Rick for his Team's wins. He and his Teammates then left for his apartment to watch the rest of the Tournament.

(Part 2.3.1: Turquoise vs. Purple - Round 1); After the shocking upset to Lime Team by Pink Team, Turquoise and Purple Teams were busy discussing strategies for their upcoming match on Saltspray. The Teams arrived at the Stage and spawn in. When the bell sounded, they headed out to take the Zone. The Teams kept trading control over the Zone for the first three minutes of the match. But at the 2:50 mark, Turquoise Team activates all their Specials at the Zone and take control over it and splat three Purple Team members in the process. Turquoise Team then maintained their control until time ran out. Judd declared Turquoise Team the victor with a Score of 80 to Purple Team's Score of 44. "This looks to be an even playing field so far! It's currently 1-0 for Turquoise Team.", shouted Callie with glee. Tracey wanted Purple Team to make a name for themselves to prove their skill, and discussed strategies for the next match with her Team.

(Part 2.3.2: Turquoise vs. Purple - Round 2); Mia was planning to clean-sweep Purple Team as they were getting ready for their next match on Port Mackerel. The Teams spawn in and headed out at the sound of the bell towards the Zones. Turquoise Team takes both Zones easy while splatting Tracey and Mala in the process. Meanwhile, Peter captured Turquoise Team's Zone while they were pushing and Mala fires off a recently charged Inkstrike at her Team's Zone to take control. The control of the Zones was trading back and forth between the Teams for the next two minutes of the match. Later, Peter flanked Mia and Jake, splatting both of them. With a numbers advantage, Tracey orders her Teammates to push into Turquoise Team's base and activates her Suction-Bomb Rush to hold them back until time ran out. Judds declared Purple Team the victor with a Score of 51 to Turquoise Team's Score of 13. "Purple Team showed some good retaliation during that match.", replied Marie to the other commentators. Mia was surprised by Purple Team's decisive win against them and currently tied at 1-1, hoping to beat them in the coming matches.

(Part 2.3.3: Turquoise vs. Purple - Round 3); Currently tied 1-1, Turquoise and Purple Teams were preparing for their next match on Mahi-Mahi Resort. The Teams spawn in and headed out at the sound of the bell. The match lasted the full five minutes, with both Teams repeatedly trading control of the Zone. But Turquoise Team ended with more control, leading Judd to declare them the victor with a Score of 81 to Purple Team's Score of 52. With the tallies now 2-1, Tracey was determined to potentially reverse-sweep Turquoise Team in the coming matches.

(Part 2.3.4: Turquoise vs. Purple - Round 4); Turquoise and Purple Teams were both busy discussing plans for their upcoming match on Hammerhead Bridge. When the bell sounded after they spawned, the Teams headed towards the Zone to capture it. Purple Team claims it first and splats half of Turquoise Team and start pushing into Turquoise Team's base from the grates. But that wasn't enough. Jake sneaks past them and activates his Splat-Bomb Rush on the Zone to capture it. The Teams continue to trade splats with each other and control of the Zone for the remainder of the match. Time ran out and Judd declared Purple Team the victor with a Score of 85 to Turquoise Team's Score of 11. "I can't believe it! Purple Team has tied it 2-2!", shouted Charles in disbelief. The Teams were now more determined to win the last match to claim their spot in the Semi-Finals.

(Part 2.3.5: Turquoise vs. Purple - Round 5); The last match for Turquoise and Purple Teams was going to be on the controversial Moray Towers, with its excessive verticality, ramps and having two far-apart Zones. The Teams then arrived at the Stage and spawn in. They then headed out at the sound of the bell, falling down to the Plats, Overlook and Bottom-Mid. Turquoise Team takes control of the Zone first, but soon after, Purple Team takes control when Turquoise Team's Zone-Counter reached 82. Then the Teams had a stalemate for the remainder of the match with the Zones constantly getting Neutralized and trading of Zone-Counter Penalties. But with 10 seconds left, Purple Team was about to take the lead until Turquoise Team captured both Zones to end the match. Judd declared Turquoise Team the victor with a Score of 18 to Purple Team's Score of 17. Mia was elated that her Team won 3-2 and was granted to move on to the Semi-Finals. Frustrated with the paper-thin loss, Tracey decided to disband Purple Team. When interviewed by April about it, she only said that she has a wierd feeling that a new and better Purple Team will appear in the future.

(Part 2.4.1: Green vs. Yellow - Round 1); After the back and forth battle that Turquoise Team won over the now disbanded Purple Team, the last matchup of the Quarterfinals was about to begin! Green and Yellow Teams were already underway in discussing strategies for their first match on Saltspray Rig. They soon arrived at the Stage and prepared to spawn in. When the bell sounded, the Teams headed out towards the Zone. Green Team quickly takes control of the Zone and splatted Kyle and Steve in the process. Green Team then pushed into Yellow Team's base and splat Ava who was about to activate her Inkzooka. Yellow Team couldn't break through Green Team's defense for the rest of the match until Green Team's Zone-Counter reached 0. Judd declared Green Team the victor by full Knockout over Yellow Team. "Green Team looks like they could beat Yellow by clean-sweep with how good their defensive strategy is.", said Marie with confidence. Nattily wanted to prove Marie correct and take Green Team all the way to the Grand Finals. But had to still get past Yellow Team.

(Part 2.4.2: Green vs. Yellow - Round 2); After the dominant performance that Green Team displayed against Yellow Team, Nattily was bent on beating them to prove her Team's skill in their upcoming match on Port Mackerel. The Teams then arrived at the Stage and spawn in and headed out at the sound of the bell. Yellow Team took control of the Zones for a few moments before Green Team Neutralized their Zone to splat May, Kyle and Ava. Green Team then took control of both Zones while pushing forward and setting up their defense. After 2:30 minutes into the match, the Teams kept trading control of the Zones. But Green Team persevered with their defensive plays when time ran out. Judd declared Green Team the victor with a Score of 78 to Yellow Team's Score of 2. "Looks like Nattily heard your prediction Marie. Green Team is now 2-0!", replied Charles. May was getting flustered but held hope to win spectacularly, or lose with respect.

(Part 2.4.3: Green vs. Yellow - Round 3); With the Semi-Finals seemingly within reach, Nattily was prepared to face Yellow Team on Mahi-Mahi Resort. When the bell sounded, the Teams headed toward the Zone. Yellow Team takes it first and splats Andy and Gwen. But soon later, Green Team takes control of the Zone and push into Yellow Team's base, along with trading control of the Zone throughout the match. Time just ran out when Green Team's Zone-Counter reached 1 to give them the win and to move on to the Semi-Finals! Judd showed the Scores as 99 for Green Team and 33 for Yellow Team. May was disappointed that her Team was defeated but congratulated Nattily for her competitive positivity and skill. Then the Commentators signed off saying to stay tuned tomorrow for the remainder of the Tournament, and the live-stream ended. Leading the remaining competing Teams to head to their apartments to rest up for the big day.

(Part 3: Tower Control Semi-Finals); The next morning, the remaining Teams woke up and ate breakfast before returning to the Plaza for practice drills.

Then Marie discussed about the rules for Tower Control while the Teams stratigized.

(Part 3.1.1: Orange vs. Pink - Round 1); Sally was furious that her Team got beaten by Blue Team with a cheat and that Hunter didn't get eternal jail time. So she discussed with her Teammates to "blow Pink Team out of the Ink" in their first match on Camp Triggerfish. The Teams spawn in and headed out at the sound of the bell to take control of the Tower. Rick gets on the Tower first, but is immediately splatted by Sally who then takes control of the Tower along with Dylan. Sarah goes towards Pink Team's Fort through the Net-Grates and takes out Josh while Nick goes through Pink's Court and splats both Elly and Ovie. With Orange Team nearing the Tower-Goal, they all activate their Specials to push back and splat Pink Team to get the win. Judd declared Orange Team the victor by Knockout over Pink Team's Score of 1. "Sally seems bent on a full sweep over Pink Team after that fiasco her Team endured in the Quarters. Orange Team is currently 1-0.", stated Charles to the others.

(Part 3.1.2: Orange vs. Pink - Round 2); The next round of the Semi-Finals for Orange Team against Pink Team was going to be on Piranha Pit. The commentators discussed about the Stage's main mechanic; the conveyor belts, while the Teams stratigized. The Teams spawn in and headed out at the sound of the bell to take control of the Tower. Pink Team takes control of it first but when Rick rides it to his Team's back side of Mid, he and the rest of his Team gets splatted by Sally's Inkzooka and Dylan's Kraken, and they take control of the Tower.

Orange Team reached the Tower-Goal to end the match. Judd declared Orange Team the victor by Knockout over Pink Team's Score of 13. Sally was getting into her serious mode as she wanted to win the next match in dominant fashion.

(Part 3.1.3: Orange vs. Pink - Round 3); With their seemingly final match against Pink Team coming up, Sally and her Team planned a blunt-force plan for their battle on Arowana Mall. The Teams then arrived at the Stage and spawn in. The bell rang and the Teams headed out to try and take the Tower.

Orange Team then got the Tower to the Tower-Goal with little resistance. Judd declared Orange Team the victor by Knockout over Pink Team's Score of 0. With their 3-0 sweep, Orange Team moved on to the Grand Finals! But Rick was frustrated with his Team's embarrassing loss and decided to disband Pink Team.

(Part 3.2.1: Turquoise vs. Green - Round 1); After Orange Team's truly dominant sweep over the now disbanded Pink Team, the last matchup of the Semi-Finals was about to begin! Turquoise and Green Teams were already underway in discussing strategies for their first match on Camp Triggerfish. The Teams spawn in and headed out at the sound of the bell to take control of the Tower. Mia takes control of it, right off the bat and then takes it barely past the Tower-Path's midway point, only for Nattily to fire her Killer Wail straight at the Tower to force Mia to jump off it and activates her Echolocator, only to then get immediately splatted by Paul with the help of his Disruptor. Andy and Gwen splat the rest of Turquoise Team while Nattily gets on the Tower to make their counter-push. Green Team push into Turquoise Team's Fort and Court to hold them back while charging their Specials. Time soon ran out with the Tower in Green Team's control.

(Part 3.2.2: Turquoise vs. Green - Round 2); After a quick break, Turquoise Team and Green Team began planning their strategies for their next match on Piranha Pit. The Teams spawn in and headed out at the sound of the bell to try and take the Tower. Turquoise Team takes control of it and quickly dominated Green Team along the Tower-Path. But, just as Turquoise Team was about to get the Knockout, Nattily splats Mia off the Tower while Gwen single-handedly splats the rest of Turquoise Team with her Inkzooka. The rest of the match was back-and-forth control over the Tower until Andy and Paul splat most of Turquoise Team and take control of the Tower to bring the match into Overtime. But it was short lived when Mia splatted Nattily off the Tower and captured it at the Tower-Path's home-stretch to end the match. Judd declared Turquoise Team the victor with a Score of 99 to Green Team's Score of 83, to tie it up 1-1 going into the next match.

(Part 3.2.3: Turquoise vs. Green - Round 3); Currently tied going into the next match on Arowana Mall, Turquoise Team and Green Team were planning their strategies. The Teams soon spawned in and headed out at the sound of the bell. Turquoise Team takes the Tower easily and gets it close to the midway point in Green's Court, until Nattily fires her Killer Wail at the Tower to force them off and splat them in the process. Nattily then gets on the Tower while her Teammates pushed in to set up their defense. In the back and forth battle that soon followed, Green Team finally reached the Tower-Goal before they all got splatted by Turquoise Team's Specials. Judd declared Green Team the victor by Knockout over Turquoise Team's Score of 45. With the Scores now at 2-1 in favor of Green Team, the Round was getting heated up.

(Part 3.2.4: Turquoise vs. Green - Round 4); With the seemingly final match of the Semi-Finals about to start on Museum d'Alfonsino, Turquoise and Green Teams were already debating on their strategies. When the match started and the Teams spawned in and headed out to take control of the Tower, Green Team caught Turquoise Team by suprise and splatted them all aggressively. Nattily got on the Tower while her Teammates pushed ahead. Turquoise Team kept getting pummeled and splatted by Green's attacks and Specials from their Windmill. Soon Green Team successfully reached the Tower-Goal to end the match. Judd declared Green Team the victor by Knockout over Turquoise Team's Score of 0. With their win, Green Team moved on to the Grand Finals at 3-1. Mia wasn't upset about the loss and instead congratulated Nattily for her win and wished them good luck in the Finals against Orange Team. She and her Teammates then went to her apartment to watch the rest of the Tournament.

(Part 4: Rainmaker Grand Finals); It was time for the Grand Finals! Marie announced the final Stages for Rainmaker as; Ancho-V Games, Flounder Heights, Kelp Dome, Bluefin Depot and Blackbelly Skatepark, and that the Teams that finished in 1st will get a trophy, a certificate and 40,000,000 Cash, while 2nd will get a certificate and 5,000,000 Cash respectively. Then Callie discussed about the rules for Rainmaker while the final two Teams stratigized.

(Part 4.1: Round 1); The first match of the Grand Finals was about to begin on Ancho-V Games, but Orange Team and Green Team were debating against each other on who will win the entire Tournament. Their discussion was resolved when they returned to their tents to plan their strategies. When the Teams spawned in, they headed out at the sound of the bell to break the Rainmaker Shield before their opponents do. Orange Team breaks it first, but Sally doesn't pick it up yet as her Team hasn't found their opening advantage. Nattily took that opportunity to pick up the Rainmaker and tries to head up on Orange Team's Fan-Lift, but is splatted by Dylan's Kraken. Sarah and Nick then splat the rest of Green Team and breaks the Rainmaker Shield for Sally to pick up and push. Nick and Sarah then both fire their Specials at Green's defense positions while Dylan escorted Sally with the Rainmaker up Green Team's Fan-Lift, where she fired off a Rainmaker shot at Nattily, splatting her. Then Sally and her Teammates pushed into Green's base, holding them back while Sally slam-dunks the Rainmaker on its Pedestal to end the match. Judd declared Orange Team the victor by Knockout over Green Team's Score of 8. With Orange Team currently 1-0, Nattily was flustered and planned to mix up her strategy to catch then off guard.

(Part 4.2: Round 2); The next Round of the Grand Finals was going to be on Flounder Heights, and the Teams were planning out their strategies while the commentators chatted about how the match might play out. Soon later, the match started and the Teams headed out to break the Rainmaker Shield before the other does. Orange Team successfully breaks the Shield first and splats three members of Green Team in the process, but Nattily super jumped back to her spawn to regroup. Sarah picks up the Rainmaker and attempts to bring it into Green's Pit-Area, but is forced back by Nattily's Killer Wail. Nattily then orders her Teammates to engage on Orange Team's position to ambush and successfully splat all of them. Gwen picks up the Rainmaker and pushes ahead with her Teammates defending her, but Orange Team held their ground and held Green Team back. This stalemate lasted long enough for the Rainmaker's Self-Destruct device to go off and splat Gwen to reset itself at Top-Mid, leading Green Team to fall back to reclaim it, while Orange Team pushed forward. But Green Team predicted them to attack aggressively and ordered Paul to activate his Bubbler and chain it with Andy to engage them. This caught Orange Team by suprise and they all got splatted. With time running out, Nattily picked up the Rainmaker and pushed forward with her Teammates and successfully take the lead mere seconds into Overtime. Judd declared Green Team the victor with a Score of 72 to Orange Team's Score of 71. The commentators were shocked that Green Team beat Orange Team on even ground to tie it up 1-1.

(Part 4.3: Round 3); The Teams were planning for their third match of the Grand Finals on Kelp Dome. The Teams spawn in and headed out at the sound of the bell to try and break the Rainmaker Shield in Top-Mid. Orange Team breaks it first and Nick picks it up and carries it across the grates leading into Green Team's base while they were engaging Sally and Dylan in Mid. Nattily and Andy found out what was happening and ambushed Nick, just as he was about to climb up their Rainmaker Pedestal, splatting him. Nattily then breaks its Shield again and picks it up to make a counter-push. Halfway into the match, Nattily, still holding the Rainmaker, attempted to push through Orange Team's Shrub-Alley but is splatted by Sally's Inkzooka. The remainder of the match was a stalemate and consant swapping of control over the Rainmaker. Time soon ran out and Judd declared Orange Team the victor with a Score of 98 over Green Team's Score of 52 to make it 2-1.

(Part 4.4: Round 4); The next Round of the Grand Finals was going to be on Bluefin Depot, and Orange Team planned to get a clean Knockout to ultimately win the Tournament, but Green Team wanted to prove her Team can compete with the best of the best. The match then started as the Teams spawned in and headed out to break the Rainmaker Shield. Orange Team breaks it first and completely splats Green Team to make a big push. Sally picked up the Rainmaker and charged into Green's base. But just as she was about to climb up their Rainmaker Pedestal, Nattily respawns back just in time to splat her. She orders her Teammates to push back while she carries the Rainmaker. What soon followed was a "come from behind" domination push by Green Team, as they constantly splatted Orange Team. Green Team then fired off all their Specials consecutively to make a last ditch path to Orange Team's Rainmaker Pedestal, which was successful and Nattily slam-dunks the Rainmaker on its Pedestal to end the match. Judd declared Green Team the victor by Knockout over Orange Team's Score of 90. The commentators were shocked by Green Team's "out of nowhere" display of skill to tie up the Grand Finals at 2-2. Furious, Sally shouted out to Nattily that "she'll pay for her Team's dumbfounding display of skill" in the Final Round.

(Part 4.5: Round 5); It has come to this massive moment, the fith and final match in the Grand Finals, with Orange Team against Green Team at each other's necks at 2-2, and the match taking place on Blackbelly Skatepark, which Charles mentioning that it was nearly banned for Rainmaker once. With the Teams spawned in, the bell sounded and they headed out to break the Rainmaker Shield on Top-Mid. Green Team broke it first and Andy picked it up and made a beeline for Orange Team's Rainmaker Pedestal. Just as he was climbing it, he gets splatted by Sally. The match then became a lengthy battle of attrition and control over the Rainmaker. It was getting down to the wire with thirty seconds left in the match. The Rainmaker was in Green Team's Half-Pipe, ready to be picked up. Nattily and her Teammates rushed towards it, but got ambushed by Sally who splats all of them with her Inkzooka. Sally then picked up the Rainmaker and charged in, followed by her Teammates activating their Specials to clear the path to Green's Pedestal. Sally then slam-dunks the Rainmaker on its Pedestal to end the match just as the match timer reached zero. The commentators were elated at the show of the greatest skill in Inkopolis, as Judd declared Orange Team the victor by Knockout over Green Team's Score of 95. With their Tournament win, Sally and her Teammates were awarded their prizes on the podium in front of Inkopolis Tower. Even though their fans were against it, Green Team disbanded, as Nattily also had a feeling that a new Green Team will appear in the future and be just as good as Orange Team.

BONUS CHAPTER: Inkopolis Founding Anniversary Festival

(Year: 2016 M.E); A few weeks before the Callie vs. Marie Splatfest, Inkopolis' mayor decided to hold a Turf War Festival in the Plaza as it was nearing the 100th Anniversary of the city's founding.

EPILOGUE: Callie vs. Marie

(Year: 2016 M.E); The Plaza was set up and the Callie vs. Marie Splatfest was about to begin! Callie announced the three Stages that will be used throughout the two days of the Splatfest: Kelp Dome, Moray Towers and Walleye Warehouse. Then Marie announced that Charles and April will commentate the matches and the Teams who will participate with other players: Yellow, Light Blue and Soda voted for Callie, while Orange, Turquoise and Lime voted for Marie. After two days of dozens-and-dozens of matches and hours of the Calamari Inkantation playing to them, the Splatfest was finally over. Everyone went home to rest up from all the exciting battles and music, but four hours later, Inkopolis News came on and the Squid Sisters announced that Judd had finally tallied the votes and win totals to reveal the victor as: Marie with a score of 360 to Callie's 340! Callie was disappointed, but Marie cheered her up and they enjoyed the rest of the night together, not knowing that their fame will blow
sky-high...

(Aftermath); Due to the Final Splatfest, the Squid Sisters popularity skyrocketed overnight! Leading them to find separate carriers. Soda Team disbands. Renovation construction on Port Mackerel, Moray Towers, Kelp Dome, Blackbelly Skatepark, Arowana Mall, Piranha Pit, Camp Triggerfish, and Ancho-V Games start, while the others, except for Walleye Warehouse, were shut down and banned. Turf War lawyers made requests to find new Inklings to take the now empty Blue, Pink, Green, Purple and Soda Team colors due to the former four's popularity, but the Lime and Soda Ink colors were discontinued, so Adam of Lime Team made a request to change his Team's color to the new Lemon Ink, because he still wanted to compete, which they agreed to. Then, the lawyers declared a complete ban of the current Special Weapons and told manufacturers to make new ones, against the public's outrage. Pearl, a known solo Turf War player, decided to try a rapper career, but it started rough when her first single; "[REDACTED] Dudes be [REDACTED] Sleepin'", got massive backlash and criticism for it's NSFW title and lyrics. Which got it banned from playing on the airwaves, even though it sold 1,000 copies alone. Frustrated, Pearl went to Mount Nantai to practice her voice where she met Marina for the first time. Which led them to start a friendship, and they then later form Off the Hook. Judd secretly clones himself to create Li'l Judd. But, the Plaza was soon becoming less popular due to the nearby run-down Square that Inkopolis Times' old headquarters; Deca Tower, was located, had began renovation construction to become a new Turf War hangout spot. This lead to Annie shutting down Cooler Heads due to getting flustered by shopping crowds, Crusty Sean also shut down Shrimp Kicks to buy a food truck. Jelonzo split himself, thus giving birth to his son Jelfonzo. Also, Sheldon shut down Ammo Knights' Plaza location and moved it to the Square to keep his business thriving with the Turf War League. Along with some new Inkling hair salons opening up.

Story (S2)

PROLOGUE: The Squid Sisters Stories

(Year: 2016 ~ 2017 M.E); The events of what happened to the Squid Sisters after the Final Splatfest, the starts of their solo careers happen. Meanwhile, a few months before the start of the Inkopolis Square League, forty miles away, in a small town called "Tunako", two Inkling siblings; Duke and Emma, were hyped for the League and wanted to compete as a Team together and asked their parents to buy them train tickets to Inkopolis. But they stated that they only can if they pay for the tickets. Both of them decided to do yard work around town to get the money necessary to buy not only the tickets, but for the League sign-up and Turf War grade equipment on their wishlists as well. Soon both siblings got enough money for the trip and left for Inkopolis and got signed up the day before the League began. (View the link to find out what else happens.)

CHAPTER 1: New Faces of the Square

(Year: 2017 M.E); The day of the beginning of the Inkopolis Square League came as Duke and Emma arrived in Inkopolis Square to finally meet their Teammates and saw two new Teams; Blue Team and Sky-Blue Team but two pairs of Inklings in Pink and Purple Ink weren't ready to participate yet as they weren't full Teams yet. While every remaining veteran from the past League were there too in Orange, Light Blue, Lemon, Turquoise and Yellow Teams, but the leader of Blue Team caught Duke's eye and put a smile on his face. It was his lifelong friend Amy! As Duke approached her, she spotted him and got overjoyed and greeted him with a hug. She said that she is excited that he is competing too and that she arrived in Inkopolis just a few days ago. Inkopolis News started on Deca Tower's jumbotron and the new hosts; Pearl & Marina started with breaking news. Callie of the Squid Sisters has vanished and the Great Zapfish had disappeared again! Everyone again, ignored the news. Then, Marina announced the Turf War matchups which will be on The Reef, with the matchups being: Green vs. Blue, Orange vs. Light Blue, Lemon vs. Turquoise and Yellow vs. Sky-Blue.

(Part 1: Qualifying Rounds); The Judds then told every newcomer Team through their telepathy about the rules and requirements to participate in Turf War, and pointed to the Square's new strip mall: The Gallaria. Everyone got what they wanted with no problems. Even the veteran Teams got new weapons and gear. Everyone got on the train to The Reef afterwards, with the matches going by swiftly and the new Teams getting their starting Ranks while the veterans got their's updated. Afterwards, Duke had an urge to play more Turf War with his Team against the others to test his Team's skill, and asked each one to challenge him, which they all agree to. Then, everyone got apartments near the Square. Meanwhile, Duke invited Amy and Sally for dinner at the Crust Bucket and enjoyed the evening in preparation for their upcoming battles.

(Part 2: vs. Blue Team); The next day, Duke decided to take on the Rank S Blue Team, lead by his long-time childhood friend Amy. Alex insisted that they take on their challengers by lowest to highest Rank. Duke agreed, but replied saying that he wants to get Amy's Team out of the way first, because he doesn't want to embarrass her. Suddenly, Amy came by to check what Duke was doing. He stated to her that he wants to fight her Team first due to his feelings for her. She agreed to his reasoning and requested to battle on Snapper Canal. The Teams spawned in and headed out at the sound of the bell. Duke told his Teammates to split up and ink different parts of the Stage to charge their Specials, while Brittney stayed at Green's Perch to ink Turf at a distance. Duke then engaged Phil in Mid, where Duke Dodge-Rolls to avoid Phil's launched Brella Shield to splat him. Meanwhile, Emma encountered Rider inking Blue's Pit-Area from his Ramp-Perch. He activates his Inkjet to avoid Emma's Fizzy Bomb and splat her and inks a bit more Turf with it before it ran out. Halfway into the match, Alex flanked Lea but got splatted by her. She then super jumped back to Blue Team's Spawn Point while Alex respawned, as per Blue Team's Battle Tactic: "Fair Game". Amy was busy inking her Side-Court until she spotted Duke heading towards her, so she threw her Toxic Mist to slow him down so she could splat him, which she heartbreakingly does. With one minute left in the match, Duke orders his Teammates to initiate their Battle Tactic: "Grim Onslaught" and push into Blue's base. Brittney first fires off her Bubble Blower so Alex would pop them with his Booyah Bomb, splatting both Amy and Rider in the massive blast. Then Duke fired his Tenta Missiles at the remaining Blue members and then charged in with Emma after she activated her Ink Armor for her Teammates to continue their attack. Amy and Lea then answered back with their own Tenta Missiles and Ink Armor, while Phil activated his Splat-Bomb Launcher in an attempt to force Green Team back. Time soon ran out and then Judd calculated Green Team's
Turf-Score while Li'l Judd calculated Blue Team's Turf-Score. The results were that Green Team won with 50.4% to Blue Team's 49.6%. Duke gave his Teammates high-fives and Blue Team came over to then for handshakes for the good game and Amy to hug Duke for a fun match. When they returned to the Square, they were met by Sally who said that both of their Teams' skill look promising. And that Amy's Team is better than the previous Blue Team in both respect and skill in her tough tone. Amy thanked Sally for the remarks and stated that she was her reason in wanting to compete in Turf War. Sally just grunted back as she went to her apartment while Duke brought Amy to get a snack at the Crust Bucket in preparation for Green Team's next challenger: The hyper tech-newbies of Sky-Blue Team! But, the banned Blue Team is still in the city, and it's leader is planning a devious revenge scheme...

(Part 3: vs. Sky-Blue Team); After their bittersweet match with Blue Team, Green Team set their sights on their next challenger; the Rank C
Sky-Blue Team, lead by the newcomer Olivia. She requested that they battle on Starfish Mainstage and wished them good luck while drinking a can of soda and Duke waved back to her in return. The Teams spawn in and headed out at the sound of the bell to take control of Mid. Olivia ordered her Teammates to initiate their Battle Tactic: "Power Push" as they split up heading to Mid. Brittney sets herself up at Green's Perch to attack at a distance, while Duke and Emma ink their Court-Area in route to Mid and encounter Rebecca who rolls a Splat Bomb and fires off her Bubble Blower and throws another Bomb at it to instantly pop them, but Emma activates her Ink Armor in time to protect herself and her brother from the blast and tosses out a Fizzy Bomb to engage and splat her. But soon Vick ambushes behind them with a flank but is splatted by Brittney. Then at the 1:30 mark, Alex splats Orville in Sky-Blue's Court-Area, but is flanked by Olivia. Alex reacted quickly and activated his Booyah Bomb in time to survive. Olivia decided to super jump back to spawn to prevent her from getting splatted. At the one minute mark, Duke orders his Teammates to initiate their Battle Tactic and push into Sky-Blue Team's Pit-Area. Vick and Orville fire off their Tenta Missiles and Ink Storm respectively to deeter them away, but Brittney fires off her Bubble Blower through the ramp leading into Sky-Blue's Pit-Area for Duke and Emma to pass through, and fire shots and throw their Bombs onto Sky-Blue's base, until they are ambushed by Rebecca. But Emma splats her, only to find a super jump landing marker located where she was splatted. Brittney warned them that she saw that Olivia is jumping there with a Splashdown and tosses out her Splash Wall in front of them to block the coming explosion. Her prediction was true. Olivia landed with her Splashdown, but Duke and Emma survived due to Brittney's Splash Wall and splat Olivia. Alex then threw his Booyah Bomb into Sky-Blue Team's base, fully detonating just as time ran out. The Judds calculated each Team's Turf-Scores, and the results were that Green Team won with 63.1% to Sky-Blue Team's 36.9%. Olivia came over to Duke and his Team to congratulate and thank him for the white-knuckle match and offered to share with them an 8-pack of canned soda she brought to drink with her Teammates after the battle. Duke thanked her for the offer but kindly declined it. Even though he insisted to take a can to drink during his Team's lunch-break. Now that they have beaten the two rookie Teams, Green Team now has to fight the veteran Teams from the Plaza days. With their next challenger: The chillin' & splattin' drifters of Light Blue Team!

(Part 4: vs. Light Blue Team); A while later, Green Team was gearing up for their next challenger; the Rank B- Light Blue Team, lead by the veteran Hal. He claims to Duke that he won't easily lose due to his Team's higher experience and skill, and requested to battle on MakoMart. The Teams then arrived at the famous supermarket and spawned in. The bell rang and the Teams headed out. Duke got to Mid first and hid in his Ink, where suddenly something was thrown at his position and was heading towards him. It was an Autobomb from Hal to find and attack his position. Duke hesitated and Dodge-Rolled away from the Bomb's blast and successfully splats Hal. Meanwhile, Emma was inking through Green's Aisle into Light Blue's Side-Court where she spots Lara inking there. She decides to attack her, but gets splatted by Lara's Ultra Stamp. Then, at the 1:30 mark, Duke fires off his Tenta Missiles to scatter Light Blue Team and orders his Team to initiate their Battle Tactic and charge into Light Blue's base. Green Team then fire off the rest of their Specials and push ahead. With one minute left, Hal orders his Team to initiate their Battle Tactic to potentially make a comeback. Ned and Marcy both activate their Specials to push Green Team back, but it made Green Team charge up their Specials again. Brittney fires off her Bubble Blower and Alex throws another Booyah Bomb to pop them, splatting all of Light Blue Team in the blast, except Hal who escaped through his right Spawn-Ramp to toss a last-ditch Ink Storm. But Duke fired off his Tenta Missiles at Hal in the last few seconds of the match. Time soon ran out and the Judds calculated each Team's Turf-Scores, and the the results were that Green Team won with 73.1% to Light Blue Team's 26.9%. Duke was giving his Teammates high-fives for the win, where Hal came over to him and congratulated them for their win and stated that their upcoming challengers will be tougher and won't be as soft and easy as his, and left with his Teammates back to the Square. When Green Team returned to Inkopolis Square, they began to prepare for their next challenger: The skilled daredevil stunt-squids of Turquoise Team!

(Part 5: vs. Turquoise Team); An hour later, Green Team was stratigizing for their next challenger when suddenly, they heard a group talking about them nearby. Duke and Emma went to see who it was, and find out that it was none other than their next challenger; the Rank A Turquoise Team, lead by the veteran Mia. She was surprised that they overheard her, stating to Duke that he only beat Light Blue Team so easily was due to Hal not being as strong of a competitor as her and the other veterans, and requested to battle on The Reef. When they arrived, the Teams spawn in and headed out at the sound of the bell and start inking towards the Bridge. Brittney and Duke got to the Bridge first, while Emma and Alex inked their Left & Right-Routes respectively and spot Jake and Della engaging them, but they were quickly splatted by Brittney with the help of Duke's Burst Bombs. Meanwhile, Chris was inking beneath the Bridge, where he is flanked by Alex, but he fights back and activates his
Burst-Bomb Launcher to splat Alex, but he tosses out a Splat Bomb to force him to disengage. But Chris calls to Mia that he needs assistance, where she activates her Ink Armor to successfully help splat Alex. Then they suddenly hear an explosion in their Court-Area and that a member of Green Team was marked. It was Emma, who was attempting a flank but triggered one of Della's Ink Mines. Seeing that her position was compromised, Emma decided to super jump back to spawn to regroup with Alex. Then the next minute of the match became a lengthy stalemate between the Teams due to Mia ordering her Teammates to initiate their Battle Tactic. Until at the one minute mark, Duke targets all members of Turquoise Team with his Tenta Missiles to scatter them away so he can order his Teammates to initiate their Battle Tactic and start their assault. The rest of Green Team activate their Specials to hold their ground. Duke and Emma were holding down Turquoise Team's Car-Court where they were attacked by Della in her Baller. The squid-siblings tossed their Bombs and concentrated fire on Della to break the Special and splat her. Then Brittney fired off her Bubble Blower into Turquoise Team's Left-Alley from their Court-Area to push back Jake and Chris, but Jake threw out his Ink Storm to push Brittney back and defuse her Bubbles, but Alex threw a fully charged Booyah Bomb at them to truly pop them, and the resulting blast splatted both of them. With fifteen seconds left, Mia activates her Ink Armor for herself and heads beneath the Bridge where she suddenly gets flanked by Duke who threw a Burst Bomb to break her Armor so Emma can splat her from behind with Dodge-Roll shots, just as time ran out. The Judds calculated each Team's Turf-Scores and revealed that Green Team won with 59.7% to Turquoise Team's 40.3%. Emma hugged her brother for the victory, while Mia thanked them for the "awesome, but hectic match." Duke just said "don't mention it" in a respectful way and headed back to the Square with his Team for lunch at the Crust Bucket in preparation for their next challenger: The comeback superstar kids of Yellow Team!

(Part 6: vs. Yellow Team); After their lunch-break, Green Team began planning their match with their next challenger; the Rank A+ Yellow Team, lead by the veteran May. She states to Duke that she thinks his Team looks promising and requests to battle on Manta Maria. The Teams then arrived at the dock housing the decommissioned yacht and spawn in. The bell sounded and the Teams headed out to ink Turf. Brittney and Ava set up their defenses at each other's Bunkers while Duke and May engage at the Center-Mast, with Emma assisting him with a Fizzy Bomb. May Dodge-Rolls away from it, but is pincered by the siblings and splatted. Then Kyle activates his Booyah Bomb at his Perch and tosses it at them, with Steve on their heels in his Baller. Ava then tries to snipe one of them but suddenly gets splatted by Alex with a flank. Alex then called Brittney to get on top of the wall of Yellow's Bunker while Duke and Emma escaped from the blast of Steve's Baller and splat him too. With 1:30 left, Brittney and Alex spot Kyle and May passing through their Deck-Area heading their way. May activated her Inkjet while Kyle readied a Vertical-Swing, but Brittney tossed out her Splash Wall in front of her while Alex charged up his Booyah Bomb. Successfully splatting both of them. With a numbers advantage and one minute left, Duke orders his Teammates to initiate their Battle Tactic and push into Yellow Team's base while firing off his Tenta Missiles. Brittney first fires off her Bubble Blower into Yellow's Pit-Area which Duke and Emma burst there on the way up to Yellow's Mast-Catwalk. Emma then activates her Ink Armor to head into Yellow's Spawn-Platform, but Ava retaliates with her Suction-Bomb Launcher, but they Dodge-Roll away from the barrage. Then Alex throws another Booyah Bomb at Steve and Kyle's position, which they answer back with their Specials. With thirty seconds left, May frantically activates her Inkjet to attack Green Team. She successfully splats Alex, but Duke splats her in return. Time soon ran out and the Judds calculated each Team's Turf-Scores. When the Teams saw the overhead view of the Stage, Green Team was shocked that Steve snuck past them and inked their Pit-Area and placed a Sprinkler in Mid on the way there. The results came in and revealed that Green Team won by a paper-thin margin of 50.6% to Yellow Team's 49.4%! Duke was elated that he won and congratulated his Teammates for popping off. May was disappointed but still thanked Duke for the match and states that he will be in for a real fight soon and headed back to the Square. Duke was more confident than ever and started stratigizing for his Team's next challenger: The pressure spikers of Lemon Team!

(Part 7: vs. Lemon Team); An hour later, Green Team was ready to take on their penultimate challenger; the Rank S+ 6 Lemon Team, lead by the veteran Adam. He states that he has seen that their Turf War skills are impressive, but wants them to prove it and requests to battle on Humpback Pump Track. The Teams spawn in and headed out at the sound of the bell to take control of Mid. Duke and Emma arrived there first, with Brittney on her Team's Perch while Alex headed through their Side-Track, but Duke and Emma get ambushed and splatted by Tina and Matt, Adam rushes at Brittney, splatting her too. Alex finds out he is to only one left and prepares to super jump back to spawn, only to get splatted by Frexa's Ultra Stamp. Finding out that Green Team has been completely wiped, Adam orders his Team to initiate their Battle Tactic and charge towards Green Team's Base to put pressure on them, while Matt throws his Ink Storm so it can pass over Green's Spawn-Platform while Tina activates her Inkjet to fly up to it and attack. The resulting skirmish lasted for a minute, until Duke realized that he and his Team were playing into Adam's hands, and ordered his Teammates to hold their ground and charge up their Specials. Duke fires off his Tenta Missiles at Tina and Matt, forcing them to retreat, but are cut off by a Fizzy Bomb thrown by Emma from Green's Foam-Pit, successfully splatting both of them. Alex then engaged Frexa who tried to charge at him with her Ultra Stamp, but Alex dodges and splats her. Now realizing that he is outnumbered, Adam super jumps back to spawn, while Duke orders his Teammates to initiate their Battle Tactic to make a comeback. Emma activates her Ink Armor while Alex and Brittney fire their Specials onto Lemon Team's base, while Duke covers some more Turf to charge his Special and to get the win. Adam activates his Baller and charges at Emma and Alex, but they throw their Bombs and fire at it to destroy his Special before he could detonate it, and splat him. With twenty seconds remaining, Duke and his Teammates fire off their Specials one last time and successfully wipe Lemon Team just as time ran out. The Judds calculated each Team's Turf-Scores and revealed that Green Team won with 78.3% to Lemon Team's 21.7%. Duke's excitement was on fire seeing that they made a huge comeback and fist bumped his Teammates. Duke thanked Adam for the match, but he only golf-clapped and says that he respects his Team's aggression and patience, and states that Green Team now has to face their hardest test of skill yet. Duke knew what Adam was talking about. His Team now has to prepare to face their final challenger. The best of the best, the Inkopolis Plaza Open Champions: Orange Team! And Duke was really hyped up to battle them and show that his Team can compete with them.

(Part 8: vs. Orange Team); Half an hour later, Duke and Green Team were planning their strategy for their match against their final challenger; the Rank X Orange Team, lead by the legendary veteran herself, Sally. She states to Duke with her stern tone that his Team may be a rising star, but are still rookies on the inside that she will completely destroy, and requested to battle on Port Mackerel. Duke got more motivated than ever after hearing her remark and prepared for the match. The Teams spawn in and headed out at the sound of the bell to take as much Turf as possible. Duke and Sally engaged each other in Mid and struggled to splat each other. Meanwhile, Emma was heading through one of the Side-Alleys in Mid when she suddenly gets ambushed by Sarah, but Emma tosses out a Fizzy Bomb at her to force her back. Then, Alex decided to push in on his own with stealth, but is caught by Dylan's Point Sensor, as Nick attacked him with his Bubble Blower. Alex throws a Splat Bomb at the Bubbles as he super jumped back to spawn. The next minute of the match was a complete stalemate, with neither Team gaining a numbers or Turf advantage, even with the use of Specials. Now with a minute left in the match, with seemingly no advantage, Duke orders his Teammates to initiate their Battle Tactic to prepare their counter-push. Brittney fires off her Bubble Blower into Mid while Alex throws his Booyah Bomb at them. Duke fires off his Tenta Missiles, but before Emma activated her Ink Armor to aid Green Team's push, Sally suddenly ambushed and splatted the siblings, and then splatted Alex and Brittney. Sally then orders her Teammates to initiate their Battle Tactic to make their win inevitable. Undaunted, Green Team respawned and Duke tells Alex and Brittney to stay on their Spawn Point to charge their Specials, while he and Emma sneak through their Closed-Alleys to ink Turf without Orange Team knowing and flank them. They initiate their plan while Orange Team pushed into Green's base. But Dylan and Sarah find out what they were doing and attacked them individually with their Specials, but the siblings avoided the attacks and splatted them while inking Turf to charge their Specials. Duke then targets Sally and Nick with his Tenta Missiles while Emma activates her Ink Armor to attack them. But they knew that they would flank them and retaliated, only for Brittney to fire her Bubble Blower at them so Alex could pop the Bubbles to splat them. But after they do, they find a super jump landing marker located where Sally was and they were targeted by Sally's Tenta Missiles, Duke looked up as he fled and saw Sarah was about to land with a Splashdown. Alex activates his Booyah Bomb and throws it just as Sarah landed and time ran out. The Judds calculated each Team's Turf-Scores and revealed that Orange Team won with 56.8% to Green Team's 43.2%. Duke was mad that he lost and headed back to the Square, with Emma and Alex trying to calm him down. But when they returned, they saw Amy with an excited and joyful face, running towards Duke. Duke tried to hide his anger in front of her, but when she stated that she was monitoring Green Team's battle stats on SplatNet from her phone after her Team's match with his, she revealed that even though Green Team lost against Orange Team, they had reached Rank X in a single day! Duke was amazingly shocked by the news and he cheered up again when Emma hugged him saying; "your the best brother ever!", while Alex, Brittney and the other Teams congratulated him. Soon Sally came over to them and said that she welcomes Green Team to the League and truly recognizes them as a worthy competitor. Duke hugged Amy for making the end of his day better, and invited her with his Teammates to eat at the Crust Bucket to celebrate their accomplishment. Later, after a busy evening, everyone headed back to their apartments for the night, but Duke wondered while he was brushing his teeth; "why weren't there any Pink and Purple Teams for me to face? Hopefully I'll be able to fight them soon". Little did he know that the Teams he was thinking about didn't actually have suitable leaders yet, and that something drastic was about to happen...

CHAPTER 2: Hunter's Revenge

(Year: 2017 M.E); Hunter and his friends, Cara, Xavier and Justice are in their apartment rooms, bored with no longer being able to compete in Turf War due to their ban's orders from years back. Hunter was frustrated at his boredom, so he contacted his gang about a revenge plan; rob the Gallaria and compete in Turf War secretly. Justice was against the idea, but Hunter forced her to with a threatening tone. He then ordered black hoodies and gloves online with express one day delivery for them and started their scheme that night. They broke into each shop and stole what interested them and some Ink Tanks. The following day, they arrived at the Square only to be arrested for the robbery they did last night and violating their probation. But Sally suddenly asked the officers that she challenge Hunter in a Turf War before they're fully arrested. They hesitated, but agreed. Hunter then yelled at Sally that he "will finally get revenge" and requested to battle on Walleye Warehouse. The battle commenced and the original Blue Team was completely dominated with 1.2% to Orange Team's 98.8%. After the battle, Hunter and his gang were arrested. Then, in the courtroom, they were declared guilty and sentenced to life in prison. Sally was there and when she heard the sentence, she was excited and had a smile on her face and cheered happily, showing joy once again. When Hunter was being lead out of the courtroom, Sally gave him one last kick in his crotch, shouting "You deserved it" to him. She was so happy, she bought Crust Bucket meals for Green and Blue Team. But it was short because she got an urgent phone call (from Cap'n Cuttlefish saying he needs her for a patrol at Tentacle Cape) and had to leave immediately. Everyone was wondering what it was about.

CHAPTER 3: Octo Canyon

(Year: 2017 M.E); Duke was in high spirits after a solo Turf War match when he noticed a strange Inkling Woman in a kimono staring at him on a manhole. He decided to follow her through and finds himself in Octo Canyon, an area near Octo Valley and far away from Inkopolis. He spots the Inkling Woman who introduces herself as Marie of the Squid Sisters and Agent 2 of the New Squidbeak Splatoon, but Duke says he never heard of them, which shocked her. She told him that she thinks it was the Octarians who restole the Great Zapfish and kidnapped Callie. Duke volunteered to help her and Marie gave him the new Hero Suit and Hero Shot and dubs him Agent 4, then he sets out with Marie's guidance.

(Part 1: Tentakeel Outpost); Marie tells Agent 4 that the Sector they are in is called Tentakeel Outpost and that it is the New Squidbeak Splatoon's lookout spot in the Canyon. She then tells him about the hidden entrances to the Octarian hideouts containing the Zapfish required to open the Boss Kettle in order to proceed, in which Agent 4 finds the first one codenamed; Return of the Octarians, and enters it. Inside, Agent 4 fights his way through the scouts of Octotroopers, with Marie telling him how to defeat them. After encountering and defeating a large group of Octotroopers guarding a vault with Tenta Missiles, Agent 4 rescues the first Zapfish. Marie congratulated him when he returned and pointed toward the remaining two entrances, which he saves their Zapfish easily. With the three Zapfish, the Boss Kettle opens up and Agent 4 enters it, only to see a Zapfish get snatched by a large Octo tentacle in a pool of Octarian Ink. Then, the Octo Oven rises out and attacks. Marie tells
Agent 4 that to defeat the Oven, he needs to splat the tentacle on top of it. Agent 4 figures out that he needs to swim and climb up it's loaves and walls while dodging it's glazing arm and the Octobread, but as he was climbing, the loaves suddenly went back into the Oven and shook him off. Then the Oven activated its glazing arm again and cornered Agent 4. The Octobread ejected out again, now with uninkable armor. Agent 4 began to climb them again while dodging Ink Pistons and splats the tentacle, defeating the Oven and saves the Zapfish it stole. Afterwards, Marie contacts Sheldon to ask him to loan his top-secret Hero Weapon prototypes, which he happily agrees to. When Agent 4 returned, the barrier blocking the path to the next Sector shattered. Marie went to scout ahead and Agent 4 soon followed her.

(Part 2: Suction-Cup Lookout); When Agent 4 arrived, Marie tells him that the Sector they are in is called Suction-Cup Lookout which is an old Octarian warehouse and the Boss Kettle there needs six Zapfish to open. Agent 4 enters the first mission codenamed; Enter the Octohurler, and enters it for Sheldon to loan him the Hero Roller to deal with the Octohurlers and their Rolonium. When he retrieved the Zapfish, he overheard Marie say that the Hero Roller was Callie's, he told her that he promises to find Callie and seeks out the next mission codenamed;
Octozepplin Invasion, and to his disappointment (and Marie's excitement), Sheldon loans him the Hero Charger to reach the Grapplinks and take out the swarms of Octozepplins easier. Agent 4 eventually got the Zapfish and found the next mission codenamed; The Octopark, and was elated that Sheldon had loaned him the Hero Dualies! He easily saves the mission's Zapfish along with the last three missions' to open the second Boss Kettle, which he enters with the Hero Roller. He spots a large Octarian sumo wrestler in the center of the arena meditating. Agent 4 walked towards him when he suddenly got up and turned to face Agent 4, saying that his name is Octo Samurai and that he interupted his routine and challenges Agent 4 to a dual as he grabbed his Roller and attacks him. Agent 4 attacked Octo Samurai in return with Vertical-Swings. Octo Samurai jumped to the other side of the arena and transformed his Roller into an Octocycle and charged towards Agent 4. Agent 4 dodged and splatted Octo Samurai. His Roller's engine block then landed in Agent 4's Ink as Octo Samurai's ghost went into it and respawned. Now filled with fury, Octo Samurai configured his Roller into a vertical position and attacks Agent 4 with a jumping-slash. Agent 4 avoids it and continued to swing at Octo Samurai. He then did a spin-attack to splat Agent 4, but he jumps over it an splats Octo Samurai, and his Roller's engine block landed again, but this time it began to malfunction and a tentacle came out. Agent 4 splatted it, which prevented Octo Samurai from respawning and the engine block explodes, freeing the Zapfish Octo Samurai used to power his Roller. Then Marie called him to see how he was when their conversation was momentarily interupted by a mysterious voice. Marie wondered about who it was, and Sheldon theorized that it could have just been magnetic interference. Marie ignored his rambling and went to scout the next Sector with Agent 4 soon following her.

(Part 3: Beaker's Depot); Agent 4 arrives and spots Marie and she tells him that the Sector is called Beaker's Depot, which is an Octarian cargo yard. Agent 4 then goes toward the Sector's first mission codenamed; Octoseeker Shakedown, where Sheldon loans him the Hero Slosher. He dodges the sights of the Octoseekers and claims the Zapfish, then seeks out the next one. Which is codenamed; Dancing Floors, where he was surprised that Sheldon has loaned him the Hero Splatling to take on the Octosnipers and open paths by shooting Ink Switches. He saves the Zapfish guarded by Flooders and then gets the four remaining missions' Zapfish afterwards to open the third Boss Kettle, which he enters with his Hero Dualies. He sees another Zapfish get snatched, and the Octostomp emerges with a set of uninkable armor. Agent 4 dodged his
charge-slide and avoided getting face-stomped. Agent 4 then saw a belt-buckle on Octostomp's face after getting up. He charged in and shot the buckle, breaking it which lead to Octostomp's armor to break. He retreated and regenerated a new set of armor, which now has two additional faces. Marie was horrified at the sight of it as he charge-slid at Agent 4. He dodged and saw that his armor still has the belt-buckle on his face. Agent 4 charged at Octostomp as he activated a Splatling and opened fire on Agent 4. He dodges the barrage and broke the buckle again. Octostomp then tried to face-stomp him, but he dodged and climbed up his sides and splatted his tentacle, redefeating him and claiming the Zapfish. Afterwards, Marie called Agent 4 to check on him, when suddenly their call was interupted again. This time the voice demanded that they leave. Agent 4 threatened to "mess them up", but he was met with silence on the other end. After that, Marie went ahead again to scout the next Sector.

(Part 4: Slimeskin Garrison); Agent 4 arrives and meets Marie again and she says that the Sector is called Slimeskin Garrison, which was an Octarian military academy. Agent 4 finds the next mission codenamed; The Experimentorium, where Sheldon loans him the Hero Blaster which he needed to solve the mission's puzzles, and he eventually claims it's Zapfish after nine minutes of confusion. Then he finds the next mission codenamed; Propellerland, where Sheldon loans him the Hero Brella to solve puzzles with it's Shield. Which he succeeds in claiming it's Zapfish along with the remaining four missions' Zapfish to open the fourth Boss Kettle, which he enters with the Hero Charger. Agent 4 sees another Zapfish get snatched, and the Octo Shower emerges and aims a Charger at him. Agent 4 swam towards the center structure for cover and proceeded to climb up to get into range to take out the Octocopters holding it in the air. He only took out two of them, leading Octo Shower to retreat and charge at Agent 4 with its shower-dash attack. He dove off to avoid the downpour and got back on top of the center structure to avoid Octo Shower's Splatling. Agent 4 then splatted the remaining Octocopter, dropping the Octo Shower to the ground, but its tentacle didn't emerge due to its drain plug still being secured in it. Agent 4 got desperate, as he no longer wanted to use the Hero Charger, and got on top of the Octo Shower to pull out its plug. But it made a loud whistle, which forced Agent 4 off while four Deluxe Octocopters flew in and attached themselves to the Octo Shower and lift it up. It then whipped out a Sting Ray and fired through the center structure at Agent 4. He dodged the Ray and climbed back up and takes out two Deluxe Octocopters. The Octo Shower then launched Octorpedoes at Agent 4 as he took out another Deluxe Octocopter. The Octo Shower then charged at him with another shower-dash, but Agent 4 jumped off with a Stored-Charge and sniped the last Deluxe Octocopter. Dropping the Octo Shower again, this time the drain plug came off and revealed the tentacle. Agent 4 splats it, successfully destroying the Octo Shower and rescuing its Zapfish. Afterwards, the mysterious voice returns and warns them to get out of the Canyon because of it's dangers, but Marie, to her horror, recognized the voice as Callie's and begged her to come back safely. But Callie yelled at her to go away and that she wasn't gonna call again before cutting the transmission. Marie was beginning to worry about her, and then tells Agent 4 that Callie is Agent 1 and that Sally of Orange Team is Agent 3 along with Cap'n Cuttlefish. Agent 4 told Marie that he will fulfill his promise to save Callie before heading to the bottom of the Canyon toward the final Sector.

(Part 5: Cephalon HQ); Agent 4 finally reached the bottom of the Canyon to see a massive Octarian complex that Marie tells him is called Cephalon HQ and tells him that Callie and the Great Zapfish are somewhere in the large pit in the area that needs the last six Zapfish to access. Sheldon flies his drone with his last Hero Weapon towards the next mission codenamed; Underground Expressway, where Agent 4 is loaned the Herobrush to deal with the swarms of Octarians. He stressfully took out the Octocommanders riding Industrial Squee-Gs and climbed them to get the Zapfish. He then claimed four of the remaining Zapfish and then enters the final mission with his Hero Dualies only to find himself in a pre-Turf War Musselforge Fitness and, for the first time, encounters Octrina who now wields an Octo Blaster, and dares him to fight her. Agent 4 accepts and heads for Mid, where he is attacked by Enemy Octolings who try and pincer him, but Agent 4 Dodge-Rolls away and splats them all. He is then spotted by another Octoling with an Octo Slosher on Perch who attacks, but Agent 4 went to the bottom left side of Mid where he finds some Tenta Missiles, which he picks up as he gets ambushed by an Octoling with an Octo Roller. He Dodge-Rolls away and heads through Closed, where it is trapped with a Sprinkler and a flask of Toxic Mist. He destroys them and heads for Octrina's base, but some more Octolings with Octo Shots were guarding the ramp. He fires off his Tenta Missiles, making them scatter as he splats them on his way up the ramp. Now at Octrina's base, she tells him that he is just like the last Agent she fought, but that she won't fail against him and attacks Agent 4. She put up a hard fight with her dodging and Blaster shots, but Agent 4 eventually defeats her and claims the last eight Mini-Zapfish. Finally, the pit opens and a UFO with the final Boss Kettle rises from it. Marie mutters to Agent 4, telling him to be careful. Not knowing what lies in wait for them...

(Part 6: Marie vs. Callie); Agent 4, sticking with his Hero Dualies enters the final Boss Kettle to find spectator stands packed with all kinds of Octarians and spots Callie on a center platform, but he and Marie shockingly find out that she had been brainwashed by DJ Octavio with Hypnoshades who uses the Great Zapfish to power his new Octobot King 2 and fights Agent 4. Marie later came as backup with her Hero Charger on a flying concert truck driven by Sheldon. She snipes off Callie's Hypnoshades with special "Low-Tide Ink" to bring her back to her senses. But the Ink barely broke her hypnosis, so Marie played the Spicy Calamari Inkantation on her boombox which frees Callie who jumps to her cousin to sing along. The song strengthens Agent 4 when Sheldon gives him a failsafed Rainmaker as DJ Octavio rose the Octobot King 2 high above the arena. Marie tells Agent 4 to follow him as a Launchpad appeared, leading to a Ride Rail that Sheldon activated around Octavio. Agent 4 jumped to the Rails and shot back the Octobot King's fists with the Rainmaker's powerful shots, while dodging its spin-punches. After being struck twenty times, the Octobot King 2's thrusters shut down, leading the machine to fall back down to the arena. With Octavio stunned and the Octobot King 2 down, Marie told Agent 4 to go after him on the new Ride Rail leading towards him. Agent 4 jumps off the end of the Rail and slam-dunks the Rainmaker on Octavio's turntable console, setting off its self-destruct, freeing the Great Zapfish in a epic blast of Green Ink. Sheldon landed the concert truck on the arena as Marie and Callie hugged each other, grateful to be together again. Marie thanked Agent 4 for helping her save Callie. They then spotted Octavio, dazzed and unconscious, and took him into custody once again. That afternoon, Off the Hook announces that Callie and the Great Zapfish have returned. Pearl got song requests for the occasion and the Squid Sisters' newest song; "Fresh Start" was picked from Duke's request. Later, Callie & Marie stayed at Cuttlefish Cabin to keep an eye on Octavio, who was now back in the snow globe, until Cap'n Cuttlefish and Agent 3 would return. While even more Octolings were fleeing the Octarian Army from listening to the Inkantation.

INTERMISSION: An Octoling's (Somewhat) Fresh New Start

(Year: 2018 M.E); It was a year after DJ Octavio's defeat at the hands of Agent 4, in a secret Octarian military base in the forests outside of Octo Canyon, where Octrina and a Octoling-in-training, named Jen were having a break at the Octo Barista. During their conversation, Octrina noticed something was wrong with Jen. She told her that she's concerned about the Zapfish being abused and the Octoling boys being mistreated and is wondering about other Octarians in the Army strangely disappearing. Octrina told her that female Octolings are regarded as higher soldiers, while the males are servants of the army and she too doesn't know where the deserters went. What Octrina didn't know, was Jen was having a battle in her mind with the Calamari Inkantation she heard during both of Octavio's concerts almost freeing her soul, which was also the cause of the disappearing Octolings. Jen decided to go back to her barrack but the Inkantation freed her on the way there, so she instead went to the armory and got an Octo Shot and went into the forest. But she stepped on a branch that got the attention of Cap'n Cuttlefish and Agent 3 who were nearby coming back from their recon mission at Tentacle Cape. Agent 3 attacked Jen who took cover and said she doesn't want to fight. But when they meet face to face, they were all attacked and knocked unconscious by a mysterious group. They were sent to a mysterious undersea test facility when Agent 3 suddenly awoke and escaped. The unknown group didn't care about her, so they continued with the Cap'n and the Octoling, while wiping 88% of the latter's memory.

CHAPTER 4: Octo Expansion

(Year: 2018 M.E); An Octoling wakes up and meets Cap'n Cuttlefish who says he heard her humming the Calamari Inkantation while unconscious. He befriends the Octoling and asks for her name, but the Octoling says she only knows her name, species and gender, but nothing else. Cuttlefish figures out that she has amnesia and tells her about him, the Octarians, the Inkantation's brainwash breaking effects and how they got to this mysterious place. They head out through the Abandoned Station and enter Central Station. Jen spots a Telephone and it says that she is Subject No. 10,008 and says that she is in Deepsea Metro and her mission is to complete Tests to enter the "Promised Land" to be free. It gives her the CQ Card and CQ-80 as a subway train arrives and its conductor; C.Q. Cumber, welcomes them aboard and teaches Jen, who Cuttlefish now calls Agent 8 because he thought Subject No. 10,008 was too long, the CQ System to find the four Thangs needed to open the gateway to the "Promised Land" that are guarded by Bosses. Cuttlefish theorized that the "Promised Land" the Telephone was yapping about was actually the surface and wondered how far deep they were and offered to help guide Agent 8 with the Tests.

(Part 1: Lines A & C); Agent 8's first Test was in Fake Plastic Station, where she had to get to the goal by going through groups of Octolings. She tries talking to them at Cuttlefish's word, but they talked back at her in a weird way and started attacking her. Agent 8 successfully takes them out to pass the test. Afterwards, Cuttlefish received a transmission from his radio receiver. He thought it was Agent 3 but it was Pearl & Marina that answered instead. Marina tells him that she and Pearl found it while playing chess at their hang-out spot on Mount Nantai. Cuttlefish brought them up to speed on their situation and the duo agreed to help Agent 8 with the rest of Line A's Tests which unlocked access to Line C. Agent 8's next challenge there to open the rail lines leading to the Thangs was Move It Move It Station, where she had to avoid taking damage from enemies in the given time. She clears it after three retries and proceeded to pass the rest of the Line's Tests to access Line B. Afterwards, a strange individual comes aboard, identifying himself as Iso Padre, who was a rejected Test Subject and tells Agent 8 that she has a chance to reach the Promised Land and will encourage her to do so. Cap'n Cuttlefish sees him as a bit sketchy but could be a nice guy and chats with him on the way to the next Test-Station.

(Part 2: Lines B & F); After half an hour, the train arrives on Line B and it's first Test; Rad Ride Station, where Agent 8 needed to ride the Tower to the enemy base. After she exits the turnstile, Pearl recognized the Stage as Snapper Canal and told Agent 8 about what Tower Control was and she succeeds after struggling a bit with some enemy Octoling attacks. Then she proceeded to clear the rest of the Line's Tests to gain access to Line F. Then, C.Q. Cumber notified her that the first Thang is at it's end. Agent 8 then passes all the Test-Stations until she encounters the first Boss; Octostomp Redux in Drop the Bass Station, who guards the Foundational Thang. She decided to take it on with the Dualie Squelchers. It attacked Agent 8 with Bubbles and started shooting her with its Splatling. Agent 8 Dodge-Rolls away and destroys the touch-panel on its face to break off its armor so she could splat its tentacle. But it retreated and regenerated a new set of armor, this time with two additional faces that have touch-panels as well. It charge-slid at Agent 8, but she dodged in time before it could face-stomp her. It got back up and shot a barrage of Bubbles at her. After an intense struggle, Agent 8 finally destroyed all of its touch-panels, breaking its armor again. It then leaped at her from the other side of the arena to stomp her, but she dodged and climbed one of its sides and splats the tentacle to finally defeat it and obtains the Thang to bring back to Central Station. But when they arrived, they find an Octoling Boy begging the Phone about something. When Cuttlefish asked them what's going on, the Phone says that the Octoling Boy wasn't supposed to arrive and was erroneously identified as Subject No. 10,008. But Agent 8 told it that he can come with them to help reach the Promised Land, which the Phone agreed to via a confusing string of slang. The Octoling Boy says that he too has amnesia and that his name is Jeff and comes aboard to help find the remaining Thangs.

(Part 3: Lines D & I); After an hour, the train arrives on Line D and it's first Test; Targetbuster Station, where all the target-crates had to be destroyed within the time limit. Jeff decides to takes it on with and Octobrush, but it took him three tries to figure out how to clear it, and finally succeeds. He then passes the rest of the Line's Tests to access Line I, where C.Q. Cumber detected another Thang. Jeff passes all the
Test-Stations until he encounters the Octo Oven XXL in Toastmaster Station, who guards the Precision Thang. He decided to take it on with an Octobrush. Jeff sees the tentacle on top of the Oven and prepares to climb across the Octobread, when suddenly some Octodivers emerged from their Ink on the loaves to prevent him from climbing up, but are splatted as Jeff got past them and snagged a can of Ink Armor and activates it. Just as he reached the top, he was met by a group of Octobombers that bombarded him off. Then the Octo Oven XXL activated its glazing arm and summoned Octosnipers as he swam away. Then the Oven ejected the Octobread again, this time with uninkable armor. Jeff swam up the exposed spots and took out the Octosnipers and splatted the tentacle to finally defeat it and obtains the Thang to bring back to Central Station. On the way there, Agent 8 complements Jeff's great skill with an Octobrush. He replies that it's one of the only things he still remembers about himself. After arriving and dropping off the second Thang, they head back out to get the remaining Thangs.

(Part 4: Lines G & E); After a while, the train arrived on Line G and it's first Test; Iceman Station, where the Goal had to be reached with an Inkjet. Agent 8 decides to do it and surprisingly clears it first try. She then passes the rest of the Line's Tests to access Line E, where C.Q. Cumber once again detected another Thang. Agent 8 breezes through it's Tests, until encountering the Octo Shower Supreme in Cool Your Jets Station, who guards the Surrounding Thang. Agent 8 had to fight it with an Inkjet and headed towards the arena. It lifts off and prepared to snipe Agent 8. She dodges and shoots down one of the Octocopters holding up Octo Shower Supreme. It got agitated and retreated to charge at Agent 8 with its shower-dash attack. She dodges swiftly and was able to shoot down another Octocopter as it went by. It retaliated by firing off Octorpedoes and engaging her with its Splatling. Agent 8 shot down the last Octocopter holding up Octo Shower Supreme, and it drops down on the ground, revealing its tentacle. But as Agent 8 was about to splat it, Octo Shower Supreme suddenly made a loud whistle and four Deluxe Octocopters came in with a new drain plug and picked it up. It then whipped out two Sting Rays and fires them consecutively while firing off multiple Octorpedoes. Agent 8 submerged into her Ink to dodge the Rays and attacks the Deluxe Octocopters from their flank, splatting three of them. Octo Shower Supreme then began to emit steam and charged at Agent 8 with another shower-dash. She splatted the last Deluxe Octocopter, dropping Octo Shower Supreme onto the ground again. With its tentacle now exposed and emitting smoke, Agent 8 splatted its tentacle to finish it off and obtains the Thang. On the way back to Central Station, Marina notifies them that she and Pearl opened up a Chat Room that Agent 8 and Jeff can access through the CQ-80, while Cuttlefish used his cellphone. After dropping off the third thang, the Telephone says that the final Thang is in reach and sarcastically tells them to slack off before hanging-up.

(Part 5: Lines J & H); Presumably the last time riding the train, the group finally arrives on Line J and it's first Test; Girl Power Station, where the Orb must be defended from enemy Octolings within the time limit. Agent 8 and Jeff decide to enter together and take on an Elite Octoling codenamed: Subject No. 1 and her Sanitized Squad, whom they defeat swiftly due to their teamwork. Then Jeff takes on the rest of the Line's Tests to unlock the final rail line; Line H, where C.Q. Cumber pinpoints the final Thang. Jeff passes the remaining Tests until encountering Revenge of Octo Samurai in Whack-Fu Station, who guards the Sealing Thang. Jeff had to fight it in a Baller and went into the arena. Octo Samurai attacked Jeff with its Roller to push him off. But Jeff dodges and detonated his Baller on it, barely pushing it towards the edge of the arena, but Octo Samurai retaliated by jumping to the center of the arena and lands with a spin-attack. Jeff got knocked back by the blow, but was lucky to be knocked into one of the guardrails. Octo Samurai saw this and transformed its Roller into an Octocycle and charged towards Jeff. He rolled away just in time as it drove off the arena. Then the engine block of Octo Samurai's Roller flew back onto the arena as Octo Samurai's ghost went into it and respawned. Now filled with fury, Octo Samurai now wielded dual Rollers and unleashed multiple Vertical-Swing attacks at Jeff. He dodges all of them as it prepared to whack him again, but Jeff detonated his Baller a just the right moment to knock it off balance. Jeff took this opportunity to bump it off the arena again. The engine block flew onto the arena again, but this time it began to malfunction and a tentacle came out, which Jeff splatted to finally defeat it and obtain the Thang. With the surface certainly within reach, Cap'n Cuttlefish was getting concerned about where Agent 3 was and what she was doing.

(Part 6: The Escape); With all 4 Thangs, the Telephone says it is time for them to enter the Promised Land and uses the Thangs to make the entrance and leads them inside only for Marina to horrifically figure out that the Thangs were actually parts of a giant blender as the Telephone activates it to slaughter them into paste. Marina frantically activates the SOS on Agent 8's CQ-80, only for Agent 3 to smash through the glass ceiling to punch the Phone and destroy the blender to free the trio just in time. But she knocked herself unconscious from the rescue, then Marina hacks the Employee Model CQ-80 Agent 3 had so they can escape the Metro. Agent 8 goes ahead but Jeff and Cuttlefish find out that she's unarmed, so Jeff went back to the Abandoned Station to find a Splattershot for her along with an Octobrush for himself, but Agent 8 got an Octo Shot during her escape. When she was in the Intestinal Phase, the Telephone reawakens and does something to Agent 3, who then does something to Jeff and the Cap'n. Agent 8 and Off the Hook don't hear from them until she reached the Spinal Phase where on the elevator, as it was about to reach the ladder leading to the exit hatch, it strangely stopped...

(Part 7: vs. Agent 3); Agent 8 looked up and saw Agent 3 in front of Cap'n Cuttlefish and Jeff both tied up hanging from a UFO to find out that the Phone corrupted her mind and making her fight Agent 8. She jumps down with a Splashdown, forcing Agent 8 to jump out of the way.
Agent 3 then activates an Inkzooka and fires at Agent 8 as she fled for cover. It then ran out and Agent 8 engaged her, but Agent 3 kept dodging her shots while trying to charge it up again, but Agent 8 shot her enough to break her Hero Suit's shield, forcing her to super jump to the UFO to heal. Agent 3 jumped back in with another Splashdown. Agent 8 anticipated her Inkzooka again, but she instead activated a Bubble Blower, attempting to pin down Agent 8. But as she was escaping the Bubbles, Cuttlefish warned her that Agent 3 has another Special ready: a
Suction-Bomb Launcher. She activates it and pins down Agent 8. But as Agent 3 was about to pop the Bubbles, Agent 8 escaped in time as she swam up one of the wall-structures and shot Agent 3 again, forcing her to retreat once more. Agent 3 instead stayed on the UFO, and began to fire off Tenta Missiles at Agent 8. Agent 8 tried to shoot her, but it was doing little damage, so she tossed some Splat Bombs onto the UFO, breaking Agent 3's shield. Cuttlefish was about to warn Agent 8 of what Agent 3 was going to do next, when she super jumped towards Agent 8's position with a Splashdown. Agent 8 dodged and prepared to shoot her, but she super jumped two more times with Splashdowns. Agent 3 then engaged Agent 8, but as Agent 8 had her cornered and damaged, Agent 3 suddenly rolled towards her and activated another Splashdown.
Agent 8 braced for the blast, but was still firing her Octo Shot, as its stray shots hit Agent 3 out of it, knocking her down and into a wall face first, leading the substance controlling her to disintegrate, freeing her mind, but she was still unconscious. Agent 8 then untied Cap'n Cuttlefish and Jeff and they prepared to climb the ladder and finally reach the surface where Off the Hook picked them up via helicopter. Cuttlefish was glad to breathe fresh air again while Agent 8 and Jeff did too and finally saw the light of the sun and felt the soft breeze. But they were about to witness the start of a deadly threat against their species' very existence...

(Part 8: Octo Heros); As they were leaving, Cap'n Cuttlefish and Pearl were rapping together when Agent 8, Jeff and Marina notice the platform they were on rising out of the water to reveal a massive human statue. Cuttlefish noticed the Telephone in the statue's eye while it says that its real name is Commander Tartar, an AI ment to carry on humanity's history and knowledge to the next species, but says it was disgusted by their evolution and culture so much that it wanted to annihilate them and recreate all life on Earth with the primal ooze it gathered from the 10,007 Test Subjects it slaughtered over the years, and activates it's ultimate weapon; the statue itself; codenamed NILS. Armed with a massive cannon in it's mouth that will destroy all life on the entire world at full charge! Marina starts making a plan to stop the evil AI: That Agent 8 manually detonates the prototype Hyperbombs she'll place on the statue in the three minutes the weapon has to fully charge via solar energy and for Pearl to warm-up her voice to destroy the statue with a battle cry. Agent 8 then super jumped into the Turf War that will save the world, but after she detonates the first set of Hyperbombs, hatches open up on the statue and some strange looking Octolings come out and start inking where the Bombs were placed. Marina shockingly finds out that the statue's charge time began to rapidly decrease. Cuttlefish saw this and theorized that the Octolings' Ink was somehow absorbing solar energy and transferring it into the statue. Agent 8 was unsure on what to do, until Jeff changed his Ink color to Pink and super jumped to her saying that he will take care of the Enemy Octolings while she detonates the upcoming Hyperbomb sets. But with each set of Bombs detonated, more Enemy Octolings came to help their master. Agent 8 and Jeff detonate all the Hyperbombs and splat all the Octolings with seconds to spare and jump back to the helicopter where Marina notices that the weapon isn't at full charge, but Tartar blurts out that it was "surprised by No. 10,008's will to stop its ambition", but said that it was all for nothing and fires anyway, but Pearl used her Princess Cannon with the loudest Booyah she ever shouted to successfully counter NILS' cannon blast and obliterates the statue with Tartar and all the primal ooze along with it. With the world saved, Agent 3 regains consciousness, holding her head in pain and confusion on what she missed, as Agent 8 helped her to her feet with a smile while she tells her and Jeff her real name. Off the Hook drops them off at Inkopolis Metro and gave Jen and Jeff Gallaria catalogs and funds to go to Inkopolis Square and enjoy their new lives, and finally lead the new Pink and Purple Teams respectively, while Cuttlefish and Agent 3 return to the Squid Sisters at Cuttlefish Cabin for a seaweed stew dinner. Marie told Agent 4 to join them and meet the Cap'n. He agrees, but said that he'll get something else to eat, as he hates seaweed stew. They all enjoyed the rest of the evening while Jen and Jeff participated in their Team's qualifying matches and enjoyed battling the other Teams. But Cuttlefish went back to Deepsea Metro a few weeks later to see how everyone was doing after Tartar's demise.

CHAPTER 5: Salmon Run

(Year: 2018 M.E); Duke and Amy are hanging out in the Square with their new friends, Jen and Jeff, when Inkopolis News came on announcing that Grizzco Industries is now hiring as a part-time job. The four decided to head to Grizzco and find Mr. Grizz who accepts them as employees and sends them into training, then their first shift at the Spawning Grounds. Duke has his signature Splat Dualies, Jen has a Splattershot, Amy has her Jet Squelcher and Jeff has his Octobrush, while they all change their Ink color to Cobalt-Blue, but were struggling with the objective. When they got back, they find another crew who got over 200 Golden Eggs with weapons they never seen before. Vent, who lead the crew of Grizzco's best Profreshionals, taunted them for how "wimpy" their first shift was. Duke got pissed-off by the joke and demanded him to a Turf War match after he and his friends try another shift, in which they have more success this time, getting 58 Golden Eggs and then got their bonuses afterwards. Then they waited for Vent's Team in the Square, and when they arrived, he and his Team had regular weapons and accepted his challenge on New Albacore Hotel. Duke's Team came out on top with 69.4% to Team Grizzco's 30.6%. After the match, Vent apologized to Duke and his friends for dissing them after seeing their true skill and then headed back to Grizzco Industries. Duke and his friends decided that Grizzco was suspicious and not for them, and focused more on Turf War.

CHAPTER 6: The X-TREME Platinum Cup

(Year: 2019 M.E); It was a usual Monday in Inkopolis Square when Olivia shouted for everyone's attention, as she was in a state of awe and told everyone about a Team that appeared out of nowhere, and have won all their Ranked battles by Knockout in less than forty-five seconds called; "Team Meta." The other Teams challenged them to Turf War on social media and told them they wanted to each battle on their favorite Stages. When they met them in person, their leader; Valkyrie, says that she accepts their challenges to prove her Team's unbeatable status. Turns out that she was right, her Team destroyed them with 99.9% to 0.1% against all of them. Afterwards, Inkopolis News started and announced a new Tournament that weekend: "The X-TREME Platinum Cup." Being commentated by Off the Hook and the Squid Sisters, while Cody and Ashley will interview the Teams, and it will stream live on TV and social media, with the Seeding Matches and the Quarterfinals taking place on Friday, and the Semis and Grands the following day .

(Part 1: Seeding Matches); The Teams that entered the Tournament were; Green, Pink, Orange, Blue, Turquoise, Sky-Blue, Grizzco and Meta, as the Tournament was a Bracket of 8 Seeds. Marina announced that the Seeding Matches will be on the new Shifty Station: "MC.Princess Diaries", which will debut early before Chaos vs. Order, with the matchups being Orange vs. Blue, Sky-Blue vs. Green, Meta vs. Pink and Grizzco vs. Turquoise. The competing Teams had their own tents set up in the Square to plan out strategies, while Callie went over the rules of Turf War to the viewers.

(Part 1.1: Orange vs. Blue); The first Round of the Seeding Matches was about to begin, with Orange Team going against Blue Team, until Marina announced that she completely forgot that Off the Hook would be controlling the Stage's main mechanics, with her specially modified Hyperbombs and Pearl's Princess Cannon, and stated that The Squid Sisters will commentate the Seeding Matches themselves. The Teams spawn in and headed out at the sound of the bell. Pearl and Marina were on their helicopter playing Fly Octo Fly ~ Ebb & Flow (Octo) on its subwoofers. Marina fires off the first set of Hyperbombs onto the Stage. The Teams then engaged each other in Mid, where Sally splats both Amy and Lea, to then detonate Blue Team's Hyperbombs in Mid. Meanwhile, Rider activates his Inkjet to avoid Sarah and splats her in the process, leading him to super jump back to spawn when his Special ran out, as per Blue Team's Battle Tactic. Halfway into the match, Marina fires off another batch of Hyperbombs. Dylan was positioned at the middle platform Callie named; "The Queen of the Hill", when suddenly Phil flanked Dylan as he launched his Brella Shield before activating his Splat-Bomb Launcher, until Sally attacked and splatted him. They suddenly see a shadow loom above them. It was Off the Hook's helicopter. Lea snuck past them and detonated Orange Team's Hyperbombs, with Nick in pursuit. Now with one minute left, a column of Bold Pink light activates from the helicopter, when Pearl jumps down with her Special ready shouting; "IT'S THE VOICE TO END ALL VOICES!" Sally splats Amy before she could meet Pearl. She then activates her Princess Cannon for Sally to aim it at Blue Team's Hyperbombs in their Bunker. Sally covered her ears as Pearl fired away with her loud voice, splatting Rider and Phil. Sally then orders her Teammates to initiate their Battle Tactic and charge into Blue Team's base, firing off all their Specials together while Marina fires off one last batch of Hyperbombs. With Blue Team showing their persistence with their Specials until time finally ran out. The Judds calculated each Team's Turf-Scores and revealed that Orange Team won with 76.3% to Blue Team's 23.7%. Cody and Ashley then discussed about the match with Sally and Amy respectively. Sally stated that the new Blue Team is a good contender, but needs to be more aggressive at times than being passive, along with the match being decent. While Amy stated that it was an honor to fight Orange Team and that she is taking her loss with respect and plans to improve, along with praising the Stage overall. Callie then reveals that Orange Team has claimed the 2-Seed, while Blue Team gets the 7-Seed. Meanwhile, Pearl and Marina reset the Stage for the next Round.

(Part 1.2: Sky-Blue vs. Green); Next up was the Sky-Blue vs. Green matchup. The Teams spawned in and headed out at the sound of the bell. Olivia ordered her Teammates to initiate their Battle Tactic as they headed out. Green Team easily takes control of "The Queen of the Hill" along with Mid, and splat Olivia and Vick while detonating Sky-Blue's Hyperbombs. Duke then fires off his Tenta Missiles at Rebecca and Orville, who attempted to engage him. A while later, Rebecca snuck past Green Team and fires her Bubble Blower at Green's second batch of Hyperbombs, so Olivia can super jump to her with a Splashdown to pop the Bubbles and detonate the Bombs, Emma gave chase and activated her Ink Armor. She found out that she was right on activating her Armor, the resulting blast of ink broke through her Armor, but she hesitated and Dodge-Rolled back to splat both of them. With one minute left, Pearl once again jumps down with her Special ready and shouts for someone to ready her Princess Cannon. Vick readies his Tenta Missiles to deeter Duke from reaching her, but gets splatted by Brittney. Duke aims at Sky-Blue's Bunker Area and ordered his Teammates to initiate their Battle Tactic right before Pearl fires off with her loud voice. Brittney fires off her Bubble Blower into
Sky-Blue Team's base so Alex would pop them with his Booyah Bomb and detonate the last batch of Hyperbombs. Duke fires off his Tenta Missiles before charging in as Emma activates her Ink Armor to assist their final push until time finally ran out. The Judds calculated each Team's Turf-Scores and revealed that Green Team won with 62.9% to Sky-Blue Team's 37.1%. Cody and Ashley then discussed about the match with them. Duke stated that the Tournament will show that his Team can compete with the veterans and even become one themselves. While Olivia mentioned that she only lost due to her being overly excited to battle on the newest Shifty Station and lost focus on the battlefield. Marie then reveals that Green Team has claimed the 3-Seed, while Sky-Blue Team gets the 8-Seed. Then Off the Hook reset the Stage again for the next Round.

(Part 1.3: Meta vs. Pink); Later, the matchup of Team Meta and Pink Team was about to begin. When they arrived at the Stage, Jen spotted something in the distance that sparked her determination; the ruins of the infamous NILS Statue, still half-sunk in the ocean. The sight of the dead structure brought back her memories of fighting it along side Off the Hook, which set her mind to win the match. The Teams spawned in and headed out at the sound of the bell. Pink Team made a beeline for Mid with their Battle Tactic: "Octa-Assault." While Team Meta also initiated their's: "The Ultimate Metagame." Zero began to ink Meta's base while Valkyrie lead the others towards Mid. As Marina fired off the first batch of Hyperbombs, Valkyrie and Omega splatted Jen and Dane and detonated Pink's Hyperbombs, while Power single-handedly sniped Nate and Sydney. Zero then super jumped to Valkyrie so they can begin their push. After respawning, Pink Team held their ground and inked for their Specials to break through Meta's defenses. Halfway into the match, Sydney and Dane activate their Ink Storm and Curling Bomb-Launcher to push back Omega, but she just activated her Booyah Bomb and throws it at them, forcing them into a pincer attack by Valkyrie's Baller. Splatting both of them. Meanwhile, Zero tossed a Torpedo at Nate to distract him to make an escape from flanking him in his Baller. Then, Jen activates her Inkjet to attack Power, but is instantly sniped by him. With one minute left, Pearl jumps down and shouts again for the Princess Cannon. Valkyrie gets to her immediately and Power activates his Sting Ray and fires it at where Pink Team is moving forward through to force them into Pearl's blast. Which is what exactly transpired in that moment. Zero then activates his Ink Armor and Team Meta charges in and detonates all of Pink Team's Hyperbombs and continually splat them until time ran out. The Judds calculated each Team's Turf-Scores and revealed that Team Meta won with an exceptional 95.2% to Pink Team's 4.8%. Cody and Ashley then discussed about the match with them. Valkyrie just said that the match was a boring cakewalk and asked why her Team wasn't pre-seeded due to their extreme undefeated win streak. Jen on the other hand, was pissed-off by the loss and she didn't want to talk about it. Callie then reveals that Team Meta has claimed the 1-Seed, while Pink Team gets the 5-Seed. Off the Hook then reset the Stage for the final Seeding Match.

(Part 1.4: Grizzco vs. Turquoise); It was time for the final match of the Seeding Matches! With the Team Grizzco vs. Turquoise Team matchup soon going underway. Marina announced to the competitors and viewers that after the match, MC.Princess Diaries will be completely off-limits and under heavy security until the day of the FinalFest. The Teams spawned in and headed out at the sound of the bell. Team Grizzco initiate their Battle Tactic: "See Ya With the Fishies" to try to take control of Mid and charge their Specials. Turquoise Team quickly overwhelmed them when they engaged each other in Mid, due to Turquoise Team's Battle Tactic. Mia splats Vent and Pat, while Della detonated Grizzco's Hyperbombs. Haria attempted to splat Chris, but he splats her with his Burst-Bomb Launcher. Halfway into the match, Jake threw out his Ink Storm towards Haria who fired off her Tenta Missiles and tossed a Curling Bomb afterwards to cover her escape. Suddenly, Vent swim-jumped off the platform and activates his Splashdown, forcing Della and Jake away so Seth can ambush them. But they found out what was about to happen due to Seth triggering one of Della's Ink Mines on "The Queen of the Hill", getting splatted by Jake in the process. Then, with one minute remaining, Pearl jumps down with her Special ready shouting for someone to meet her one last time. Mia came to her and readied the Princess Cannon. Pearl fired away as Mia activates her Ink Armor and ordered her Teammates to push into Team Grizzco's base with Della making the path with her Baller. Pat tossed out her Ink Storm and Seth fired off his Sting Ray to try and force them away, but to no avail. Time soon ran out and the Judds calculated each Team's Turf-Scores and revealed that Turquoise Team won with 81.5% to Team Grizzco's 18.5%. Cody and Ashley then discussed about the match with them. Mia stated that she had fun, but wanted a better opponent. While Vent just said that he didn't care that his Team lost, and just wanted to collect the sponsorship money from the Tournament for Grizzco and get it over with. Marie then reveals that Turquoise Team has claimed the 4-Seed, while Team Grizzco gets the 6-Seed. But before she called for a commercial break, she was handed a note from the studio director about an announcement. It was Annie saying that she made fancy dresses and tuxedos for the competing Teams and X-Rank themed attire for the Squid Sisters and Off the Hook for a special occasion that was to be announced at the end of the Tournament. Most of the competitors were wondering what the fancy attires could be for. But they couldn't dawdle any longer. All eight Teams were now Seeded, and the bracket-run of the Tournament was about to begin!

(Part 2: Quarterfinals); Marie announced the Stages and Modes for the Quarterfinals as; Sturgeon Shipyard/Clam Blitz, Port Mackerel/Rainmaker, Shellendorf Institute/Tower Control, Kelp Dome/Splat Zones, Inkblot Art Academy/Tower Control, Manta Maria/Rainmaker and MakoMart/Clam Blitz, along with the Quarterfinals and Semi-Finals will both be in a "Best of 7" format while the Grand Finals will be "Best of 9" instead, and that the Teams who finished in 5th ~ 8th will get rewarded with 10,000 Cash and an assortment of Crust Bucket Tickets. Then Pearl discussed about the rules for each Ranked Mode while the Teams stratigized.

(Part 2.1.1: Meta vs. Sky-Blue - Round 1); It was Meta vs. Sky-Blue first, with the first round taking place on Sturgeon Shipyard with Clam Blitz as the Mode. Pearl then stated that Clam Blitz is a brand new Ranked-Mode and recapped its rules with the competitors and viewers. Sky-Blue Team was anxious to battle, but nervous about fighting Team Meta, knowing their playstyles. The match started and the Teams headed out to gather Clams to fill the enemy's Basket. Olivia collected ten Clams to form the Power Clam needed to break the Barrier of Meta's Basket, while her Teammates gathered their own Clams on the way to Mid to help score. They arrived in Mid only to get completely wiped by Valkyrie
single-handedly. She gathered nine of the Clams they dropped and activated her Baller and headed towards Sky-Blue Team's Basket so Omega can super jump to her with a Power Clam. As she lands, Omega throws the Power Clam and breaks the Barrier. Zero and Power assist them with more Clams. Sky-Blue Team respawn and attack Team Meta to force them back and stop scoring. But Power and Omega activated their Specials and forced them back. Soon Team Meta completely filled Sky-Blue Team's Basket, ending the match. The Judds declared Team Meta the victor by Knockout over Sky-Blue Team's Score of 0. "Team Meta is looking as dominant as they say they are! They're currently 1-0.", stated Marie to the other commentators. Valkyrie just glared at Olivia in a serious manner as they stratigized for their next match.

(Part 2.1.2: Meta vs. Sky-Blue - Round 2); Preparing for another flawless victory, Valkyrie was getting into her A-game into gear for the next Round against Sky-Blue Team, which was going to be Rainmaker on Port Mackerel. The Teams spawn in and headed out at the sound of the bell to break the Rainmaker Shield before their opponents do. Team Meta successfully breaks it first, splatting both Olivia and Rebecca in the blast. Valkyrie then picked up the Rainmaker and headed for Sky-Blue Team's Pedestal. Omega went ahead and splatted Vick and Orville and activated her Booyah Bomb. Power then fired his Sting Ray through Sky-Blue Team's base so Valkyrie could safely pass through. She then slam-dunks the Rainmaker on its Pedestal to end the match. The Judds declared Team Meta the victor by Knockout over Sky-Blue Team's Score of 0. Olivia was getting frustratingly nervous now that Team Meta was up 2-0 against her, and told her Teammates that they will do their best against the odds.

(Part 2.1.3: Meta vs. Sky-Blue - Round 3); With the seemingly penultimate Round of Team Meta and Sky-Blue Team being prepared, both Teams were stratigizing for the match, which was going to be Tower Control on Shellendorf Institute. Marina then stated that Tower Control now has a new mechanic; "Checkpoints" along the Tower-Path, where the Tower temporarily stops before continuing forward, and that the Stage has three of them for each Team's side. The Teams then arrived at the famous museum to spawn in and headed out at the sound of the bell to take control of the Tower while initiating their Battle Tactics. Sky-Blue Team got fully wiped by Valkyrie and Omega, while Zero got on the Tower and successfully cleared the first Checkpoint. Sky-Blue Team respawns and ink Turf for their Specials to potentially stop Meta's push at the second Checkpoint. Rebecca activates her Bubble Blower and Orville tosses out his Ink Storm as Olivia attempted to flank behind the Tower. But Power saw what she was doing and fired his Sting Ray at the Tower to force Olivia away, letting Zero clear the second Checkpoint. Vick fires off his Tenta Missiles and engaged the Tower, but got splatted by Valkyrie's Baller. Team Meta then cleared the final Checkpoint unopposed and finally reached the Tower-Goal, ending the match. The Judds declared Team Meta the victor by Knockout over Sky-Blue Team's Score of 0. With Team Meta at 3-0, they were proving to be completely unstoppable going into the final Round.

(Part 2.1.4: Meta vs. Sky-Blue - Round 4); With Team Meta seemingly guaranteed to move on to the Semi-Finals, Olivia and Sky-Blue Team were just ready to call it a day and relax. But they had to continue through the Tournament and stratigized for their final Round, which was going to be Splat Zones on Kelp Dome. The Teams spawn in and headed out at the sound of the bell towards the Zone while initiating their Battle Tactics. Team Meta captures the Zone and Omega splatted a third of Sky-Blue Team on her own. Olivia was the last one alive and decided to super jump back, but got splatted by Valkyrie before she could. Team Meta then push into Sky-Blue Team's base and held them off until their Zone-Counter finally reached 0 within fifty seconds of the match. The Judds declared Team Meta the victor by Knockout over Sky-Blue Team's Score of 0. Olivia was relieved that she and her Team's stressful day was over and told Valkyrie that she was dominant and she deserved to move on. Valkyrie just gave her a "whatev's" and a stern gaze as Sky-Blue Team began to pack up and return to Olivia's apartment to watch the rest of the Tournament. Now with Team Meta destroying Sky-Blue Team 4-0, they moved on to the Semi-Finals.

(Part 2.2.1: Orange vs. Blue - Round 1); After Team Meta's dominant clean-sweep over Sky-Blue Team, Orange and Blue Teams were busy discussing strategies for their upcoming match of Clam Blitz on Sturgeon Shipyard. The Teams spawn in and headed out at the sound of the bell to gather Clams. Amy and Rider were able to each form a Power Clam and decided to hold their positions to find an opening to score. Then, Nick splatted Lea in Blue's Side-Pit Area, but got ambushed by one of Phil's Autobombs and pincered by his Brella Shield, getting splatted in the process. Sally tried to splat Phill in that moment, but got splatted by Rider's Inkjet. Amy then made a beeline for Orange Team's Basket so her Teammates can jump to her. She scored, but Dylan was on his Perch and was about to activate his Booyah Bomb when he got splatted from behind by Lea but got splatted by Sarah. Rider scored in his Power Clam and Phil scored in three more Clams until they super jumped back to spawn as per Blue Team's Battle Tactic. But this move gave Orange Team a Turf advantage as they inked Mid and formed three Power Clams and headed to Blue Team's Basket where Nick fired off his Bubble Blower as as Sarah jumped to Sally with a Splashdown and splats Amy and Phil in the blast while breaking through their Ink Armor from Lea. Sally, Dylan and Nick tossed in their Power Clams and retreated to gather more Clams to score. Blue Team tried retaliating with their Specials, but couldn't negate them in time as Sally tossed in the last three Clams to completely fill Blue Team's Basket. The Judds declared Orange Team the victor by Knockout over Blue Team's Score of 51. "This is looking to be what the Orange vs. Blue matchup of the Plaza Open should've been! Orange Team is now 1-0!", shouted Callie with excitement. Amy was getting nervous from the loss, fearing that her Team will get clean-sweeped like Sky-Blue Team did, but Duke came over to encourage her to do her best, which lifted her spirits to going into the next Round.

(Part 2.2.2: Orange vs. Blue - Round 2); Sally was planning to clean-sweep Blue Team, as she was in high spirits to fight a more lengthy Quarterfinals Round than the one she endured in the Plaza Open. Both Teams began planning for their next match, which will be Rainmaker on Port Mackerel. The Teams spawn in and headed out at the sound of the bell to break the Rainmaker Shield before their opponents do. Blue Team successfully broke the Shield, where Rider activated his Inkjet and chased Sarah. Amy fired off her Tenta Missiles before grabbing the Rainmaker. Phil and Lea activated their Specials to lead the way to Orange's Pedestal. Dylan was about to activate his Booyah Bomb, but Rider splatted him. Just as Amy was about to to climb up the Rainmaker Pedestal, Sarah activated her Splashdown on top of it, splatting Amy. Sally then broke the Shield, but went back into the fray, letting the Rainmaker reset back to Mid. Sally then broke the Shield again and grabs it. Letting her Teammates clear the path for her. Nick fires off his Bubble Blower into Blue's base as Sarah followed them with her Splashdown, popping them and splatting Phil and Rider. Dylan activated his Booyah Bomb to force back Lea and led Sally to the Pedestal and slam-dunks the Rainmaker to end the match. The Judds declared Orange Team the victor by Knockout over Blue Team's Score of 98. With Orange Team currently 2-0, Amy was getting nervous again, but kept calm and focused on the next match.

(Part 2.2.3: Orange vs. Blue - Round 3); After another epic match, Orange and Blue Teams were busy discussing strategies for their next match, which will be Tower Control on Shellendorf Institute. The Teams spawn in and headed out at the sound of the bell to take control of the Tower while Blue Team initiated their Battle Tactic. Amy gets to the Tower first and successfully clears the first Checkpoint with the help of Lea and Phil's Specials. But as they reached the second Checkpoint, Sally attacked them from Perch, but Phil defended against her with his Brella Shield. When suddenly Nick came behind them after splatting Lea and tossed a Suction Bomb at Phill's Shield from behind, splatting both him and Amy. Sally then orders her Teammates to initiate their Battle Tactic and gets on the Tower. Orange Team then activate all their Specials together and successfully clear all the Checkpoints and were closing in on the Tower-Goal. Just as they were about to get the Knockout, Lea and Rider suddenly pincered and splatted them. Amy then gets on the Tower while her Teammates pushed ahead. The match then went into Overtime as Blue Team brought the Tower to the second Checkpoint. Sally and Sarah engaged her, but got splatted by Rider. Sarah survived and activated her Splashdown, but Lea came and splatted her out of it. Amy cleared the Checkpoint as well as the final one. Dylan respawned and activated his Booyah Bomb but Phil engaged below him. Dylan decided to toss it at him instead of the Tower to survive, but it was too late. Blue Team reached the Tower-Goal to end the match. The Judds declared Blue Team the victor by Knockout over Orange Team's Score of 99. "WOW! Blue Team just made a comeback! They now made it 2-1!", said Pearl in shock. With this sudden loss, Sally began to believe that Blue Team could be a worthy competitor, but questioned their Battle Tactic, and prepared for the next Round.

(Part 2.2.4: Orange vs. Blue - Round 4); With Blue Team surprisingly getting a Knockout over them, Orange Team planned a counter strategy for their upcoming match, which was going to be Splat Zones on Kelp Dome. The Teams spawn in and headed out at the sound of the bell to head towards the Zone while Blue Team initiated their Battle Tactic. Orange Team takes control of the Zone first and Sally then charged at Amy and Rider in their Shrub-Alley, but Amy tossed out her Toxic Mist to deeter her away as she headed back to get on the Grates, while Rider activated his Inkjet. Meanwhile, Lea and Phil were holding their positions in their Right-Route as Sarah attacked them with Vertical-Swings from her Roller. Then as Orange Team's Zone-Counter was at the halfway point, Phil activated his Splat-Bomb Launcher as he slipped through the Grates in Mid and bombarded one side of the Zone, while Rider inked the other, taking control of it. Sally activated and fired off her Tenta Missiles at them, but Amy also fired off her Tenta Missiles. The next two minutes of the match became a lengthy stalemate between the Teams. But as the timer reached one minute, Blue Team was in the lead, Sally orders her Teammates to initiate their Battle Tactic to make a comeback. So Dylan and Nick activated and fired their Specials at Top-Mid and one side the Zone respectively as Sarah activated her Splashdown on the other side of it to fully take back control, but had to dwindle down their Zone-Counter Penalty. But thirty seconds in, Blue Team activated their Specials and charged at the Zone, splatting both Sally and Nick in the process. Time soon ran out and the Judds declared Blue Team the victor with a Score of 84 to Orange Team's Score of 53. Dumbfounded that Blue Team has tied it up 2-2, Sally was impressed, but frustrated at the loss, and planned to defeat them like a true X-Rank player.

(Part 2.2.5: Orange vs. Blue - Round 5); Currently tied, Orange and Blue Teams were already underway in discussing strategies for their upcoming match, which was going to be Tower Control on Inkblot Art Academy. Which Pearl stated has three Checkpoints for each Team's side. The Teams spawned in and headed out at the sound of the bell to take control of the Tower while Blue Team initiated their Battle Tactic. Blue Team took control of the Tower first after Lea and Amy shockingly wiped Orange Team. Then, Rider successfully got the Tower past two of the Checkpoints with the help of the others and their Specials, and was approaching the final Checkpoint, when suddenly Dylan and Sally attacked him with their Specials to force him off, but had to withdraw due to Rider's Inkjet and Phil's Splat-Bomb Launcher. But luckily, as the Tower was about to reach Orange's Tower-Goal, Nick fired off his Bubble Blower and Sarah activated her Splashdown to pop them, splatting all of Blue Team in the blast. Seeing that her Team has the opportunity, Sally orders her Teammates to initiate their Battle Tactic and charge into Blue Team's base while Dylan rode the Tower, while activating her Special as Blue respawned. Orange Team's massive aggression push made Blue Team hold their ground at their Spawn Point to charge up their Specials, but it was all for nothing. They kept getting splatted by Orange Team as they finally reached the Tower-Goal to end the match. The Judds declared Orange Team the victor by Knockout over Blue Team's close Score of 95. Now down 2-3, Amy tried to boost her and her Teammates morale as they began researching strategies for the next Round.

(Part 2.2.6: Orange vs. Blue - Round 6); With the Semi-Finals seemingly within reach, Sally was prepared to face Blue Team and end it how she wanted it to be years ago, but better. The Teams then learned that the match was going to be Rainmaker on Manta Maria. The Teams spawned in and headed out at the sound of the bell to break the Rainmaker Shield while Blue Team initiated their Battle Tactic. Both Teams met in Mid and struggled to break the Shield with their conflicting attacks to it. But Sarah super jumped to Sally with a Splashdown. Which helped Orange Team break it and splat all of Blue Team in the blast. Sally then orders her Teammates to initiate their Battle Tactic while she picked up the Rainmaker and headed after them. Blue Team respawned and tried to charge up their Specials but were too late. Sally slam-dunked the Rainmaker on their Pedestal to end the match. The Judds declared Orange Team the victor by Knockout over Blue Team's Score of 0. Ending it at 4-2, Orange Team moved on to the Semi-Finals to face Team Meta, which Pearl stated was going to be a "slugfest for X-Rank supremacy". Amy on the other hand, was sad that her Team lost to her Turf War idol. But as they were packing up their stuff, Sally came over and asked to talk with her. She told her that she believes that Blue Team can succeed, as they pulled off some good retaliation and aggression in the matches they won, but stated that their Battle Tactic is actually their weakness and that she will gladly help her come up with a better one. Amy wiped away her tears and hugged Sally, thanking her for the advice and offer. Cheered up, Amy and her Teammates left for her apartment to watch the rest of the Tournament.

(Part 2.3.1: Green vs. Grizzco - Round 1); After the back and forth battle that Orange Team won over
Blue Team, Green Team and Team Grizzco were busy discussing strategies for their upcoming match of Clam Blitz on Sturgeon Shipyard. The Teams spawn in and headed out at the sound of the bell to gather Clams. Green Team forms two Power Clams and scored them in with the help of one of Emma's Fizzy Bombs, but when they retreated to gather more from Mid, they didn't find any. Not even in Bottom-Mid. Brittney then spots Team Grizzco relaying all the Clams towards Green's Basket. Brittney tossed her five Clams to Alex, who also had five, to make a Power Clam and tosses it at Grizzco's Basket, only for it to become inaccessible as Team Grizzco had broke their Basket's Barrier and started filling it with Clams. Duke and Emma counterattacked Team Grizzco, forcing them to retreat. But Pat and Haria got splatted as they prepared to super jump. Duke picks up the Pity Clam and jumps to Brittney and scores it in, leading Alex to toss in a few more Clams. But they fell for Grizzco's Battle Tactic again. Vent and Seth snuck past them and relayed more Clams towards their Basket again. Duke orders his Teammates to initiate their Battle Tactic to ambush them with their Specials, but it was too late. Team Grizzco had completely filled Green Team's Basket. The Judds declared Team Grizzco the victor by Knockout over Green Team's Score of 50. When they returned to the Square, Cody and Ashley interviewed the Teams about the match. Vent just said that they won only because Clam Blitz is similar to his Team's job at Grizzco. But Duke was angry about the loss and vowed to defeat them by Knockout in their upcoming match.

(Part 2.3.2: Green vs. Grizzco - Round 2); After his Team's embarrassing loss to Team Grizzco, Duke planned to win by Knockout in the next Round, which was going to be Rainmaker on Port Mackerel. The Teams spawn in and headed out at the sound of the bell to break the Rainmaker Shield. Team Grizzco surprisingly broke it first. But as Vent grabbed it, he immediately got splatted by Duke. He then pushed forward with Emma and Alex to splat the rest of Team Grizzco, as Brittney grabbed the Rainmaker. Team Grizzco got highly overwhelmed by Green Team's aggression as they fired off their Specials via their Battle Tactic. Soon Brittney slam-dunked the Rainmaker to end the match. The Judds declared Green Team the victor by Knockout over Team Grizzco's Score of 1. With both Teams tied 1-1, Duke was ready to blowout Team Grizzco in the upcoming matches.

(Part 2.3.3: Green vs. Grizzco - Round 3); Currently tied 1-1, Green Team and Team Grizzco were preparing for their next match, which was going to be Tower Control on Shellendorf Institute. The Teams spawn in and headed out at the sound of the bell to take control of the Tower. Team Grizzco initiates their Battle Tactic and charge into Bottom-Mid, splatting Emma and Brittney, while Pat got on the Tower while Haria assisted her. Team Grizzco clear the first Checkpoint easily, but as they reached the second Checkpoint, Duke ambushed and splatted them. The match then became a back-and-forth control war over the Tower. Until suddenly, with one minute remaining, Duke single-handedly splatted all of Team Grizzco. He then ordered his Teammates to initiate their Battle Tactic and charge up their Specials. As the Tower reached the second Checkpoint, Green Team simultaneously activated their Specials to push back Team Grizzco to clear the Checkpoint to take the lead. Time soon ran out and the Judds declared Green Team the victor with a Score of 64 to Team Grizzco's Score of 51. Now up 2-1, Duke was more confident that his Team can move on to the Semi-Finals.

(Part 2.3.4: Green vs. Grizzco - Round 4); Later, Duke was talking to Sally asking for strats for their next Round against Team Grizzco, which was going to be Splat Zones on Kelp Dome. The Teams spawned in and headed for the Zone at the sound of the bell, while Team Grizzco initiated their Battle Tactic. Vent and Seth get into Mid and take control of the Zone first, but got splatted by Duke, who then takes the Zone with Alex. Emma then ambushed and splatted Haria and Pat in their Shrub-Alley. Brittney then gets onto Top-Mid, while Duke lead the others into Team Grizzco's base as they initiated their Battle Tactic. Vent and his Teammates then began to get overwhelmed by their aggression and Specials as Green's Zone-Counter eventually reached 0. The Judds declared Green Team the victor by Knockout over Team Grizzco's Score of 4. Now at 3-1, Green Team was seemingly guaranteed to move on to the Semi-Finals.

(Part 2.3.5: Green vs. Grizzco - Round 5); Presumably going into the last match against Team Grizzco, Duke was pumped up to finally get to the Semi-Finals, and stratigized with his Teammates for the upcoming match, which was going to be Tower Control on Inkblot Art Academy. The Teams spawned in and headed out at the sound of the bell to take control of the Tower while Team Grizzco initiated their Battle Tactic. Green Team got into Mid first, but instead of getting on the Tower, Duke, Emma and Alex pushed onto Grizzco's Plat and splatted Vent, Pat and Haria and initiated their Battle Tactic. While Brittney got on the Tower during the commotion, Seth took his Team's Side-Route into their Lower-Court Area and decided to ambush her. Team Grizzco couldn't handle Green Team's sudden surge of aggression as they kept getting splatted by their Specials. Green Team then reached Grizzco's Tower-Goal to end the match. The Judds declared Green Team the victor by Knockout over Team Grizzco's Score of 0. Ending it at 4-1, Green Team moved on to the Semi-Finals. When Ashley asked Vent about if he and his Team would watch the rest of the Tournament after they packed their things, but he just said that he didn't care that his Team lost and wouldn't watch the
live-stream as they had to work a double-shift for the day. Then Vent obtained his Team's prizes and collected the Tournament's sponsorship money and they headed back to Grizzco Industries.

(Part 2.4.1: Turquoise vs. Pink - Round 1); After Green Team's come from behind sweep over Team Grizzco, the last matchup of the Quarterfinals was about to begin! Turquoise and Pink Teams were already underway in discussing strategies for their upcoming match of Clam Blitz on Sturgeon Shipyard. They soon arrived at the Stage and prepared to spawn in. When the bell sounded, each Team initiated their Battle Tactics and began to collect Clams. Mia forms a Power Clam but decided to hold her ground while her Teammates engaged Pink Team. Jen and Nate activate their Specials and splat Jake and Chris. Mia tossed the Power Clam into Bottom-Mid so she can retreat undetected. Della then picks it back up before it could despawn. Seeing this Mia activates her Ink Armor for her. Della dodges Dane's Curling-Bomb Launcher and successfully scored the Power Clam, leading Jake to jump in and score three more Clams. Jake then attempts to splat Dane, but Sydney intervened and splatted him. Jen and Nate flank the rest of Turquoise Team and splat them. Jen then picked up the Pity Clam and her Teammates escorted her with the help of their Specials toward Turquoise Team's Basket. But Chris respawned and activated his Burst-Bomb Launcher and Della activated her Baller. Jen retreated but went through the path on the right side of Turquoise Team's Court-Area to Score. Nate survived the assault and tossed in his four Clams to take the lead before getting splatted. The Teams then engaged in a stalemate for the remainder of the match. The Judds declared Pink Team the victor with a Score of 32 over Turquoise Team's Score of 29. "Eight's Team sure is looking dominant! Pink Team is currently 1-0!", exclaimed Pearl with passion. Mia was disappointed with the loss by a newcomer, and decided to put Jen to the test in their upcoming match.

(Part 2.4.2: Turquoise vs. Pink - Round 2); After the thrilling performance that Pink Team displayed against Turquoise Team, the next match as about to start, which was going to be Rainmaker on Port Mackerel. This reminded Jen of a Test-Station she did while stuck in Deepsea Metro. The memory made her bent on winning just as she did to complete that Test. The Teams spawned in and headed out at the sound of the bell to break the Rainmaker Shield, while initiating their Battle Tactics. Pink Team successfully breaks the Shield but instead of grabbing it, they push ahead without it. Jen activated her Inkjet and splatted Della. Sydney then splatted Jake who was about to grab the Rainmaker, while grabbing it herself. Suddenly, just as Pink Team headed through Turquoise Team's Court-Area, they got flanked by Mia and Chris. They splat all of them except Nate, who super jumped away. Mia then broke the Rainmaker Shield and activated her Ink Armor for her Teammates as she grabbed the Rainmaker. Turquoise Team then activates their remaining Specials and push into Pink Team's base. But Pink Team put up a tough resistance against their push with their Specials. But were unsuccessful. Just as the Rainmaker's Self-Destruct device was about to go off, Mia splatted both Jen, Nate and Sydney with the Rainmaker. She soon swam towards the Pedestal and slam-dunks the Rainmaker to end the match. The Judds declared Turquoise Team the victor by Knockout over Pink Team's Score of 25. Jen was furious with the loss, but Jeff came over to consult her. The kind act gave Jen the focus to try and win the next match.

(Part 2.4.3: Turquoise vs. Pink - Round 3); Currently tied 1-1, both Turquoise and Pink Teams were at each other's necks as they planned for their next match, which was going to be Tower Control on Shellendorf Institute.

Then as they approached the final Checkpoint, things were about to go south for them. Jen activated her Inkjet and splatted Mia off the Tower, while Nate and Dane flanked Jake and Della from behind. Splatting them too with their Specials. Chris was the only one left and retreated across Top-Mid. But got pincered by Sydney and her Ink Storm and got splatted as well.

Turquoise Team quickly got to Mid and took control of the Tower while splatting Dane and Nate. Mia got the Tower past the first and second Checkpoints and was about to clear the final one, when suddenly, Jen somehow fully wiped Turquoise Team with her Inkjet. As her Teammates respawned, Jen ordered them to jump to Sydney who was already at Turquoise's Plat. They do so and charge up their Specials while holding off Turquoise Team as Jen got the Tower past the Checkpoints. As it reached the final Checkpoint, Mia activated her Ink Armor to force Jen off, but Nate fired at her, breaking her Armor and forcing her back.

(Part 2.4.6: Turquoise vs. Pink - Round 6); Later, Turquoise and Pink Teams were already debating on their strategies for their upcoming match, which was going to be Rainmaker on Manta Maria. This Round reminded Jen of another Test-Station she did in Deepsea Metro. This time she wanted to win, and discussed with her Teammates about what to do when the match begins. The Teams spawned in and headed out at the sound of the bell to break the Rainmaker Shield while initiating their Battle Tactics. Pink Team successfully breaks it so Sydney and Dane to engage Turquoise Team in Mid as Jen picked up the Rainmaker and headed through the Bunker-Flank path with it with Nate going through the other route.

With two minutes left, Turquoise Team was in the lead and with the Rainmaker in their Pocket-Deck with its Shield recently broken by Della who then headed towards Mid to assist her Teammates, Nate was hiding in his ink near the Bunker-Flank route as Jen splatted both Mia and Chris. Just as the Rainmaker was about to reset, Nate grabbed it and headed for the Pedestal and retook the lead. But just as he was about to climb up it, Mia and Chris respawned and spotted and splatted him. Now with a minute left, Chris grabbed the Rainmaker and jumped off the Stage with it to reset it back in Mid. Mia splatted Jen and Sydney as she broke the Rainmaker Shield.

The Teams then spawned in and headed out at the sound of the bell to gather Clams while initiating their Battle Tactics. Mia and Della both formed Power Clams and immediately scored them and headed back to gather more. Then Chris and Jake formed Power Clams and scored them too. Suddenly, as Mia gathered six Clams, Jen ambushed her as she tossed one Clam to Della, who had five. She then scores them in, but got splatted by Dane's Curling-Bomb Launcher. Pink Team's Basket Barrier sealed up and spawned the Pity Clam, which Nate collected. Then, Jen activates her Inkjet and splats Chris and Jake so Sydney could snatch their Clams to form another Power Clam. Nate tosses the Pity Clam away so Dane could obtain it.

Dane then activates his Curling-Bomb Launcher and fires them into Turquoise Team's Spawn-Court while Nate and Sydney gathered and scored more Clams. Soon Pink Team finally filled Turquoise Team's Basket to end the match. The Judds declared Pink Team the victor by Knockout over Turquoise Team's Score of 98. With the seamless win, the commentators were elated that Pink Team had upset Turquoise Team 4-3. Jen was excited to move on to the Semi-Finals to face her friend Duke, while Mia was disappointed with the loss. Then Marina signed off saying to stay tuned tomorrow for the remainder of the Tournament, and the live-stream ended. Leading the remaining competing Teams to head to their apartments to rest up for the big day.

(Part 3: Semi-Finals); The next morning, the remaining Teams woke up and ate breakfast before returning to the Square for practice drills. Later that afternoon, the Tournament live-stream resumed as Callie announced the next sets of Stages and Modes for the Semi-Finals as; Piranha Pit/Splat Zones, Starfish Mainstage/Tower Control, Goby Arena/Rainmaker, Ancho-V Games/Clam Blitz, New Albacore Hotel/Rainmaker, Snapper Canal/Tower Control and Skipper Pavilion/Splat Zones, and that the Teams who finished in 4th will get 80,000 Cash, while 3rd will get 400,000 Cash respectively. Then Callie discussed about how good the Tournament was going so far with the other commentators while the Teams stratigized.

(Part 3.1.1: Meta vs. Orange - Round 1); After the thrilling Quarterfinals, Team Meta was going up against Orange Team. Valkyrie stated to Sally that; "you may be X-Rank, but you'll never be as elite as me." Sally got angry at Valkyrie's remark and said that her Team is still the best out of the others, and called her a hypocrite. Then Cody and Ashley ordered them to return to their tents to discuss strategies as the commentators announced that the first Round of the Semi-Finals was going to be Splat Zones on Piranha Pit. Callie then reminded the viewers and competitors that the Stage has two Zones instead of one. Then the Teams spawned in and headed out at the sound of the bell to take control of the Zones while Team Meta initiated their Battle Tactic. Orange Team takes control of both Zones and initiated their Battle Tactic as they pushed into Meta's base. Instead of going in full boar, Team Meta decided to hold back as Orange's Zone-Counter was counting down. But it was when it reached halfway, was when they struck. Omega tossed out a Splash Wall as Sarah chased her. When she activated her Splashdown, Omega shot her out of it and quickly captured the Zones with the help of Zero. Valkyrie then splatted both Sally and Dylan on their side of Mid
single-handedly. Nick was heading towards Mid after he snuck down to Meta's Bottom-Plat to charge his Special. But as he was going up the conveyor belt, he was sniped by Power who then fired his Sting Ray towards Orange Team's base. Team Meta held them off and splatted them as their Zone-Counter eventually reached 0. The Judds declared Team Meta the victor by Knockout over Orange Team's Score of 80. Sally was furious that her Team got disrespected now that Team Meta was up 1-0, and vowed for payback.

(Part 3.1.2: Meta vs. Orange - Round 2); The next Round of the Semi-Finals for Team Meta against Orange Team was going to be Tower Control on Starfish Mainstage. Which Marina stated has three Checkpoints. Both Teams began planning for the match, knowing that whoever gets the Tower past the second Checkpoint was guaranteed victory. The Teams spawned in and headed out at the sound of the bell to take control of the Tower while Team Meta initiated their Battle Tactic. Team Meta got to an early advantage after Valkyrie splatted Sarah and Nick, while Power sniped Dylan. Sally, knowing that she's now outnumbered, super jumped back to spawn so she can regroup with her Teammates and mount a counter-offensive as Team Meta got the Tower past the first Checkpoint. But as they were about to reach the pivotal second Checkpoint, Sally ambushed and splatted Valkyrie and Zero with a Suction Bomb, then Sarah flanked and splatted Power on Orange's Perch. Omega then super jumped back to spawn to mount their defense. Sally then orders her Teammates to initiate their Battle Tactic as she, Sarah and Nick went ahead towards Team Meta's base as Dylan got on the Tower. The sudden all-out aggression from Orange Team caught Team Meta off-guard as Dylan got the Tower past the second Checkpoint and then reached the Tower-Goal, ending the match. The Judds declared Orange Team the victor by Knockout over Team Meta's Score of 41. The commentators were amazed that Orange Team had just beat Team Meta! Valkyrie was furiously dumbfounded that Sally has tied it up 1-1, and called her win against her blasphemous and that she hasn't seen her Team's ultimate potential yet.

(Part 3.1.3: Meta vs. Orange - Round 3); As the Teams waited for the Tournament to resume from a commercial break, Sally and Valkyrie were having an arm wrestling match, which Sally won. As they were done, the commercial break was over and Callie greeted the viewers and announced that the next Round will be Rainmaker on Goby Arena. Pearl then replied that she has never seen a Knockout on that Stage in
high-level matchups due to both paths to the Pedestal being uninkable. The Teams then spawned in and headed out at the sound of the bell to break the Rainmaker Shield while Team Meta initiated their Battle Tactic. Team Meta successfully breaks it first and Valkyrie then grabbed the Rainmaker as Omega went ahead through Orange Team's Flank-Route and splatted Nick and Dylan. Valkyrie then headed up the uninkable Stairs and headed for the Pedestal, but got splatted by Sally from an ambush. Sally then orders her Teammates to initiate their Battle Tactic as they respawned. Sally then broke the Rainmaker Shield and headed towards Mid with her Teammates so it can reset. But they barely took the lead and couldn't get into Meta's base for the rest of the match. The Judds declared Team Meta the victor with a Score of 91 to Orange Team's Score of 82, making the matchup 2-1 going into the next Round.

(Part 3.1.4: Meta vs. Orange - Round 4); Coming fresh off of the previous Round, both Team Meta and Orange Team were already debating on their strategies for the next Round, which was going to be Clam Blitz on Ancho-V Games. The Teams spawned in and headed out at the sound of the bell to gather Clams while Team Meta initiated their Battle Tactic. Team Meta takes control of Mid and both Fan-Lifts, leading them to swiftly take control of Orange's Plat while fully wiping them and score two Power Clams into Orange Team's Basket along with a few more Clams to keep it open as they went back to gather more. But as they were, Orange Team had just respawned and splatted Valkyrie and Omega. Power jumped away as Sally lead her Teammates forward as she orders to initiate their Battle Tactic. Dylan stayed of top of Plat to give cover fire and guard the Pity Clam, when he suddenly saw Zero at the corner of his eye, emerge from his Ink and collected four Clams and form another Power Clam to score again, which lead to Power jumping to him with another Power Clam and scoring it too. Dylan then activated his Booyah Bomb and throws it towards them to force them to flee. Now facing a massive deficit halfway into the match, Sally and her Team needed to push all their skills to their limits to claim victory. Soon Sally and Nick flanked Power on his Plat and splatted him along with Zero, who had a Power Clam. They then form Power Clams and headed for Meta's Basket. Nick went ahead as he got the attention of Valkyrie and Omega, getting splatted by them and drops his Power Clam. But this was Sally's plan, as Sarah super jumped to his position with a Splashdown, splatting both of them and picked up Nick's Power Clam. She and Sally scored them in as Dylan jumped to them with another Power Clam too. They eventually filled Team Meta's Basket to end the match. The Judds declared Orange Team the victor by Knockout over Team Meta's Score of 79. The commentators were surprised that Orange Team had beaten Team Meta a second time to make it 2-2.

(Part 3.1.5: Meta vs. Orange - Round 5); Currently tied going into the next Round, which was going to be Rainmaker on New Albacore Hotel, Team Meta and Orange Team were arguing with each other about who is the most superior of Rank X. Cody and Ashley ordered them to stop bickering and sent them back to their tents so they could stratigize for the Match. The Teams then arrived at the luxury hotel and prepared to spawned in. The bell rang and the Teams headed out to break the Rainmaker Shield while Team Meta initiated their Battle Tactic. Orange Team broke the Shield first, but decided to hold their ground and charge up their Specials in Mid. But Valkyrie snuck past them and grabbed the Rainmaker and headed across Orange's Central Net-Grate. Sally started to pursue her, but Zero came out in front of them, as he snuck through the Pool-Flank, and tossed a Torpedo at Sally to deeter her from splatting Valkyrie. She then started to walk across the glass ramp leading towards the Pedestal, when suddenly Sarah jumped over them and activated her Splashdown, as she just respawned after getting sniped out of a panic-Splashdown by Power and was able to recharge it in time, and splatted both of them right before Valkyrie could climb up the Pedestal. She then broke the Shield again to grab the Rainmaker and dove into the water to reset it back to Mid so Sally can grab it. As she does, she orders her Teammates to initiate their Battle Tactic to cover her push to the Pedestal. But she immediately got splatted by Power's Sting Ray, which lead to the rest of the match to become a stalemate. But then, the match went into Overtime, with the Rainmaker positioned in Team Meta's Side-Ramp with the Shield down, Sally grabbed it before Omega could and splatted her, as her Teammates pincered and distracted Team Meta with their Specials until Sally took the lead, ending the match. The Judds declared Orange Team the victor with a Score of 96 to Team Meta's Score of 95. Valkyrie was enraged that she just had two consecutive losses in a row and swore to destroy Orange Team in the remaining Rounds.

(Part 3.1.6: Meta vs. Orange - Round 6); After her Team's two consecutive losses to Orange Team, Valkyrie was furious, shouting at Sally stating that she "made a massive mistake beating her twice in a row", and that her Team will now "face the true, ultimate potential and wrath of Team Meta." Sally just ignored the threats and called her "crazy", as both Teams began stratigizing for the next Round, which was going to be Tower Control on Snapper Canal. The Teams spawned in and headed out at the sound of the bell to take control of the Tower while Team Meta initiated their Battle Tactic. Valkyrie and Omega fully wiped Orange Team while Zero got on the Tower and activated his Ink Armor. After respawning, Sally ordered her Teammates to initiate their Battle Tactic to try and overcome the onslaught they're facing. But Zero activated his Ink Armor again while Power stayed by the Tower and fired his Sting Ray at the Tower as it reached the second Checkpoint to fully pass it. Then Omega activated her Booyah Bomb and tossed it at Sarah and Nick who were trying to flank through their Pit-Area, splatting both of them. Then Team Meta got the Tower to the final Checkpoint as Valkyrie got on it and activated her Baller while Power fired his Sting Ray again to reach the Tower-Goal, ending the match. The Judds declared Team Meta the victor by Knockout over Orange Team's Score of 0. Now with both Teams tied 3-3, the commentators were getting really excited for the final match to see who will move on to the Grand Finals!

(Part 3.1.7: Meta vs. Orange - Round 7); Now tied again, Sally and Valkyrie began arguing again over who will move on to Grand Finals for total X-Rank supremacy. Cody and Ashley once again told them to stop bickering and begin planning for the final Round of the Semi-Finals, which was going to be Splat Zones on the controversial Skipper Pavilion, with its mirror symmetry similar to the now-abandoned Saltspray Rig. The Teams then arrived at the ancient temple shrine and spawned in. The bell rang and the Teams headed out towards the Zone while Team Meta initiated their Battle Tactic. Orange Team split up as they headed for the Zone. Sally and Dylan went through their Plat while Sarah and Nick went through the Theater and Courtyard. But Team Meta predicted their strategy and fully wiped them while Zero captured the Zone. They then positioned themselves at Orange Team's exit routes and activated their Specials to force them back until Meta's Zone-Counter eventually reached zero. The Judds declared Team Meta the victor by Knockout over Orange Team's Score of 0. Sally was angry about the loss and decided to stay in the Square to give the winner of the upcoming Green vs. Pink matchup tips and help stratigize against Team Meta as her Teammates left for Dylan's apartment to watch the rest of the Tournament without her.

(Part 3.2.1: Green vs. Pink - Round 1); After Team Meta's outrageous and shocking win over Orange Team, Green and Pink Teams were already planning out strategies against each other for their first battle in the Semi-Finals, which was going to be Splat Zones on Piranha Pit. The Teams spawned in and headed out at the sound of the bell to take control of the Zones while Pink Team initiated their Battle Tactic. Both Teams met in Mid and struggled to take control of both Zones for the first minute of the match. Soon Green Team got the upper hand and successfully took control of the Zones after splatting Sydney and Dane. Then Jen and Nate activate their Specials to take the Zones after a two minute long struggle, but are foiled by Alex's Booyah Bomb. Later, with thirty seconds left, Pink Team takes control of both Zones after splatting Duke and Emma. But twelve seconds left before Overtime was about to begin, Duke respawned and ordered his Teammates to initiate their Battle Tactic, which lead Brittney to fire her Bubble Blower towards the Zones which prompted Alex to activate and toss his Booyah Bomb to pop them and retake the Zones just as time ran out. Then the Judds declared Green Team the victor with a Score of 70 to Pink Team's Score of 12. Both Teams began handshakes for the match before returning to the Square to plan for the next Round as Green Team is currently up 1-0.

(Part 3.2.2: Green vs. Pink - Round 2); After a quick break, Green Team and Pink Team began planning their strategies for their next match, which was going to be Tower Control on Starfish Mainstage. This made Jen remember another Test-Station just like it, but it was the Stage's concept-layout instead as stated by Pearl during it. She was now more determined to win from the bitter memory and avenge the previous ones too. Then both Teams began stratigizing for the match while the commentators discussed about how good the Tournament is shaping up with each other. The Teams spawned in and headed out at the sound of the bell to take control of the Tower while Pink Team initiated their Battle Tactic. Green Team started off dominant as Duke and Emma fully wiped Pink Team as Brittney got on the Tower, while Alex assisted with cover fire from Center-Stage. But just as Green Team got passed the final Checkpoint and was about to reach the Tower-Goal, Jen and Nate suddenly splatted all of Green Team and then headed back to Center-Stage to mount their comeback. Green Team respawned and Duke orders his Teammates to initiate their Battle Tactic to prevent them from loosing. But it was all in vain, as Pink Team made their comeback real as Jen got the Tower to the Tower-Goal to end the match. The Judds declared Pink Team the victor by Knockout over Green Team's Score of 94. Duke was baffled at his friend's comeback and congratulated Jen for it, but stated that he'll get serious in the latter Rounds as they are both 1-1.

(Part 3.2.3: Green vs. Pink - Round 3); Currently tied, Green and Pink Teams were already underway in discussing strategies for their upcoming match, which was going to be Rainmaker on Goby Arena. The Teams spawned in and headed out at the sound of the bell to break the Rainmaker Shield. Pink Team successfully broke the Shield and splatted Emma and Alex in the process. Jen then picked up the Rainmaker and headed through Green's Flank-Route, only to get splatted as she was going up the uninkable ramp to the Pedestal. Duke broke the Shield and grabbed the Rainmaker as he ordered his Teammates to initiate their Battle Tactic and charge into Pink Team's base to try and take the lead. They do just that, but Duke got splatted just before he could take the lead. The rest of the match became a lengthy stalemate and consant swapping of control over the Rainmaker. Time soon ran out and the Judds declared Pink Team the victor with a Score of 88 to Green Team's Score of 87. Jen breathed a sigh of relief from the paper-thin victory to go up 2-1 over Green Team.

(Part 3.2.4: Green vs. Pink - Round 4); After Green Team and Pink Team had a lunch-break, they then started stratigizing for their next Round, which was going to be Clam Blitz on Ancho-V Games. The Teams spawned in and headed out at the sound of the bell while Pink Team initiated their Battle Tactic. Pink Team successfully formed four Power Clams and splatted Duke and Emma in the process. They then miraculously scored all of them into Green Team's Basket. But they all got splatted by Alex's Booyah Bomb as they couldn't score in more Clams. Duke respawned and ordered his Teammates to initiate their Battle Tactic and charge into Pink Team's base while grabbing the Pity Clam. They then fully wipe Pink Team ans Brittney formed another Power Clam. She and Duke score them in as Emma and Alex toss in their Clams as Duke went back into Mid to gather more Clams and relay them to Brittney who positioned herself at Pink's Dev-Ramp and scored them in too. Pink Team retaliated with their Specials but couldn't negate Green Team's flow of Clams as they soon completely filled Pink's Basket to end the match. The Judds declared Green Team the victor by Knockout over Pink Team's Score of 80. When they returned to the Square, Duke commented to Jen that her Team's opening score with four Power Clams was epic and asked for no hard feelings about him winning, as Ancho-V was his favorite Stage. Jen thanked him and agreed that it was OK that he went up 3-1.

(Part 3.2.5: Green vs. Pink - Round 5); Green Team and Pink Team began planning their strategies for their next match, which was going to be Rainmaker on New Albacore Hotel. The Teams spawned in and headed out at the sound of the bell to try and break the Rainmaker Shield while Pink Team initiated their Battle Tactic. Pink Team surprisingly wiped Green Team in Mid while Jen grabbed the Rainmaker and followed Dane as he inked a path for her with his Curling-Bomb Launcher. But just as she was about to slam-dunk the Rainmaker on its Pedestal, Jen got splatted by Duke. Emma and the others forced back the rest of Pink Team as Duke broke the Rainmaker Shield again and grabbed it. Jen respawned and ordered her Teammates hold their ground and defend their Pedestal, while Duke ordered his Teammates to initiate their Battle Tactic to push in and get the Knockout. Then for the remainder of the match, Green Team barely got past the glass ramp with each push. Time soon ran out and the Judds declared Pink Team the victor with a Score of 99 to Green Team's Score of 80. With the tallies now 3-2, Jen was getting hopeful to make a comeback in the remaining Rounds.

(Part 3.2.6: Green vs. Pink - Round 6); With the seemingly final match of the Semi-Finals about to start, which was going to be Tower Control on Snapper Canal. This again reminded Jen of another Test-Station she did in Deepsea Metro and if fueled her ambition to win. The Teams spawned in and headed out at the sound of the bell while Pink Team initiated their Battle Tactic. Sydney gets on the Tower first, but got splatted before it reached the first Checkpoint. Then Brittney got on the Tower while Duke and Alex splatted Dane and Nate. Jen activated her Inkjet but Brittney splatted her out of it after she splatted Alex. As Brittney got the Tower to the second Checkpoint, Duke orders his Teammates to initiate their Battle Tactic, leading Brittney to fire her Bubble Blower towards Pink Team's base after going across the river. Nate tried to engage her on the Tower, but slipped off of it and fell into the water. Alex then threw his Booyah Bomb at Brittney's Bubbles to pop them while Emma activated her Ink Armor as the Tower reached the final Checkpoint and started tossing Fizzy Bombs into Pink's Spawn-Platform. Duke then fired off his Tenta Missiles as the Tower reached the Goal, ending the match. The Judds declared Green Team the victor by Knockout over Pink Team's Score of 8. Disappointed by the loss, but glad that Duke's Team will now move on to the Grand Finals and face Team Meta. Jen wished him good luck while she and her Teammates packed up their stuff and left for her apartment to watch the Finals.

(Part 4: Grand Finals); It was time for the Grand Finals! Pearl announced the final Stages and Modes as; Walleye Warehouse/Tower Control, Humpback Pump Track/Rainmaker, Camp Triggerfish/Splat Zones, Arowana Mall/Clam Blitz, The Reef/Splat Zones, Musselforge Fitness/Clam Blitz, Wahoo World/Splat Zones, Blackbelly Skatepark/Rainmaker and Moray Towers/Tower Control, and that the Teams who finished in 1st will get 400,000,000 Cash, a certificate, a trophy and a free stay at New Albacore Hotel with 5-Star service, while 2nd will get 40,000,000 Cash respectively. Then Pearl talked about how epic she predicts the Rounds will be with the other commentators while the Teams stratigized.

(Part 4.1: Round 1); The first Round of the Grand Finals was about to begin! With it being Tower Control on Walleye Warehouse. Which Callie stated has three Checkpoints. Valkyrie then spoke out to Duke. She said that she has seen his Team's X-Power, which was in the low 2000s, and tells him that due to it, he and his Team are a disgrace to X-Rank and plans on wiping the floor with them. Duke got pissed-off by Valkyrie's rude accusation and planned to prove her wrong, as both Teams began stratigizing for the match. The Teams then spawned in and headed out at the sound of the bell to take control of the Tower while Team Meta initiated their Battle Tactic. Duke and Emma got into Mid first and attempt to splat Valkyrie and Omega, but they got splatted instead, leading Alex to engage them but gets sniped by Power. Valkyrie orders her Teammates to push into Green Team's base and hold them there as Zero got on the Tower and began to clear all of the Checkpoints. All Green Team could do was stay on their Spawn Point and ink where Team Meta shot to charge up their Specials to mount a counter-offensive, but it was too late, Zero got the Tower to the Goal and ended the match. The Judds declared Team Meta the victor by Knockout over Green Team's Score of 0. "THAT is why the community wants Walleye banned.", stated Marie to the other commentators. Duke was furious that he lost so stupidly on his most hated Stage and prepared his Team for the next Round.

(Part 4.2: Round 2); Later, the Teams started planning for the next Round, which was going to be Rainmaker on Humpback Pump Track. Sally told Green Team the best path to carry the Rainmaker through is the right side, but the left path is high risk, but higher reward. Duke agreed with her reasoning and left with his Teammates and Team Meta to the indoor BMX track complex. The Teams then spawned in and headed out at the sound of the bell to break the Rainmaker Shield while Team Meta initiated their Battle Tactic. Green Team successfully broke the Shield as Duke picked it up and headed through the right path while Emma and Alex headed through the left one. Brittney stayed in Mid to charge her Special. Just as Duke was going for the Pedestal, Omega came from behind it and tossed her Splash Wall in front of him, then she rushed forward and splatted him. Meanwhile, as Emma and Alex inked for their Specials as they attempted to flank Team Meta, they got pincered and splatted by Valkyrie and Zero. Then Brittney fired off her Bubble Blower towards the Rainmaker as a last-resort to prevent Omega from grabbing it, only to get sniped by Power. Then Valkyrie grabbed the Rainmaker and headed up their Ink Rail towards the left path and successfully climbed it and slam-dunks the Rainmaker, ending the match. The Judds declared Team Meta the victor by Knockout over Green Team's Score of 77. Now at 2-0, Valkyrie tells Duke that; "you mess with the best, you'll get demolished. Which is what will happen to you in the next three Rounds." Duke got more mad at her demoralizing him and his Team and hoped to survive in the remainder of the Tournament.

(Part 4.3: Round 3); After returning to the Square from the previous Round, both Teams began planning for the next Round, which was going to be Splat Zones on Camp Triggerfish. Marie reminded the viewers and competitors that the Stage has two Zones instead of one. The Teams spawned in and headed out at the sound of the bell to try and take the Zones while Team Meta initiated their Battle Tactic. Both Teams split up as the Floodgates leading to the other Team's side dropped down. Team Meta successfully captured both Zones and fully wiped Green Team. They then charged into Green's base while Power headed for Green's Fort to fire his Sting Ray. All Green Team could do was stay on their Spawn Point again and charge their Specials to counter Meta's attacks and mount a counter-offensive, but it was all for nothing as Team Meta's
Zone-Counter reached zero, ending the match. The Judds declared Team Meta the victor by Knockout over Green Team's Score of 0. With Team Meta seemingly guaranteed to win the entire Tournament, Duke was getting more frustrated and wanting them to know how it feels to be on the receiving end of domination.

(Part 4.4: Round 4); After another consecutive loss, Sally told Duke that he and his Team are loosing because of their growing frustration from their previous defeats. Duke just told her that that's not the case and went with his strategy for their next match against Team Meta, which was going to be Clam Blitz on Arowana Mall. The Teams spawned in and headed out at the sound of the bell to gather Clams. Green Team forms two Power Clams and hold their positions while Team Meta initiated their Battle Tactic as Omega formed a Power Clam. Duke and Emma charged towards Meta's Basket from Closed-Alley and Mid respectively so Power couldn't counter their push, as he fired off his Sting Ray towards Emma. She then tossed her Power Clam towards the Basket before she got splatted as Duke scored in his Power Clam and splatted Zero and Power to score in Emma's Power Clam too. Brittney dropped down from her Perch into Mid and fires off her Bubble Blower as Alex super jumped to Duke to score in four more Clams. But as they headed back to collect more Clams, Omega ambushed and splatted them all as Valkyrie snuck past through Green's Closed-Alley and activated her Baller beneath the Basket. Omega and Zero super jumped to her with a Power Clam and seven Clams respectively and scored them in before activating their Specials. Power then picked up the Pity Clam and jumps to Valkyrie and scored it too as Zero retreated to gather more Clams to relay to Valkyrie. As Green Team respawned, Duke orders his Teammates to initiate their Battle Tactic to prevent Team Meta from taking the lead, but Power fired his Sting Ray towards them, making them scatter their attack. Team Meta eventually filled Green Team's Basket to end the match. The Judds declared Team Meta the victor by Knockout over Green Team's Score of 52. With another loss, Sally asked Duke two things; "agree to her reasoning to help him succeed", or "keep up with his Team's emotions getting to them in battle and completely lose the Tournament." Duke chose the former, agreeing that she was right about not letting his emotions get to him in battle and prepared for the next Round.

(Part 4.5: Round 5); With Team Meta seemingly guaranteed victory, Valkyrie was relaxing on a lawn chair while Duke and Green Team got strat tips from Sally for the next Round of the Grand Finals, which was going to be Splat Zones on The Reef. Which Pearl stated has two Zones beneath the Bridge. The Teams spawned in and headed out at the sound of the bell to take control of the Zones. Team Meta initiated their Battle Tactic and captured both Zones while pushing into Green's base. Duke told his Teammates to hold their positions and charge their Specials as he headed through the Right-Route from his Team's side to flank and take the Zones. But Power spotted him and attempted to snipe him, but Duke barely dodged as he only got struck in the foot. Duke submerged into his Ink to heal behind the Perch and fired off his Tenta Missiles at Power, leading him to abandon his position on the Bridge. Duke headed for the Zones and successfully captured them, leading Valkyrie and Omega to engage him. But Emma and Alex saw this action and pushed into Mid and caught them off guard with their Bombs. Valkyrie activated her Baller but got splatted by Duke before she got its full protection. Then Omega tossed out her Splash Wall and activated her Booyah Bomb and aimed for one of the Zones, but Green Team started firing on her Booyah Armor and got splatted before she could throw it. Seeing that he is outnumbered, Zero prepared to super jump back to spawn, when Duke threw a Burst Bomb at him and Emma followed it up with a Dodge-Roll shot, splatting him. Duke then ordered his Teammates to initiate their Battle Tactic and charge into Meta's base. As Team Meta respawned, they were met with Green Team's onslaught of Specials and Bombs and couldn't force them back for the next three minutes of the match. Time ran out with Green Team in control of both Zones. The Judds declared Green Team the victor with a Score of 90 to Team Meta's Score of 53. Now with the Grand Finals at 4-1, Valkyrie was furious with the loss and told Duke that he just got lucky and he'll be sorry for it in the next Round.

(Part 4.6: Round 6); Now with Green Team keeping their Tournament hopes alive, but still on the ropes as Team Meta was up on them 4-1. Seeing that the next Round was going to be Clam Blitz on Musselforge Fitness, Sally secretly told Green Team to take advantage of the grated walkways leading to each Team's Basket along with the longer route through the Side-Ramp, while Team Meta stratigized too. Then the Teams arrived at the popular fitness center and spawned in. The bell rang and the Teams headed out to gather Clams while Team Meta initiated their Battle Tactic. Valkyrie formed a Power Clam as Zero activated his Ink Armor to aid her as she headed for the Basket. But Brittney was there to stop her and tossed out her Splash Wall, but Valkyrie got past it before it could activate and scored the Power Clam into Green's Basket while Zero tossed in four more Clams before they got splatted from behind by Duke. Then Omega went through Green's Side-Ramp and spotted Alex in front of her. She tossed out her Splash Wall as she prepared to toss her Clams in. But as she was about to pass through her Splash Wall to get into range, Emma came behind her and tossed a Fizzy Bomb at the Wall, splatting Omega. Power was holding a Power Clam as Green Team headed for Mid with their Pity Clam while forming another Power Clam. He decided to head for his Team's base so he wouldn't lose his Power Clam on the Spawn Point and activated his Sting Ray at the grated walkway. But Green Team initiated their Battle Tactic and fired off their Specials, with Duke firing off his Tenta Missiles at Power to waste his Sting Ray while fleeing. As the rest of Team Meta respawned and prepared their defense, Valkyrie recharged her Baller and saw Brittney fire off her Bubble Blower to shield Duke as he headed for Meta's Basket with the Pity Clam. Valkyrie activated her Baller to force him back, but little did she know that Duke was shooting Brittney's Bubbles and successfully pops them, shattering Valkyrie's Baller in a split second and getting splatted in the process. Duke then scores in the Power Clam as Emma and Alex activated their Specials in Meta's base, catching them off guard while Brittney went back to get more Clams to relay to Duke while the others scored in their Clams as they kept up their offensive. Soon Green Team filled Team Meta's Basket to end the match. The Judds declared Green Team the victor by Knockout over Team Meta's Score of 42. Valkyrie was enraged that she just had another two consecutive losses in a row and told Duke that he won't be lucky again in the next Round and gave him a menacing glare.

(Part 4.7: Round 7); When the Teams returned to the Square, Cody and Ashley interviewed the Teams about the previous Round, but both of them declined, stating that there's no time to talk and headed for their tents to stratigize for the next Round, which was going to be Splat Zones on Wahoo World. Then the Teams arrived at the famous theme park and spawned in. The bell rang and the Teams headed out to take control of the Zone while Team Meta initiated their Battle Tactic. Team Meta successfully captured the Zone for a while, until Alex and Brittney consecutively activated their Specials and aimed them at the Zone, fully capturing it. Then Duke fired off his Tenta Missiles at each member of Team Meta, forcing them to retreat. He then ordered his Teammates to initiate their Battle Tactic and charge into Meta's base. Emma activated her Ink Armor as she went with Duke to splat Valkyrie and Zero, while Alex and Brittney forced Power and Omega to super jump back to spawn as they inked for their Specials again while pushing forward. Team Meta attempted to force Green Team back with their Specials, but they kept dodging them and attacked with their Specials. Green Team's Zone-Counter eventually reached 0 and the Judds declared Green Team the victor by Knockout over Team Meta's Score of 10. Valkyrie was infuriated that she lost three times in a row, and wondered why her Team was loosing by Knockout now.

(Part 4.8: Round 8); Later after a snack break at the Crust Bucket, Team Meta and Green Team resumed stratigizing for their next match, which was going to be Rainmaker on Blackbelly Skatepark. "Ever since they revamped this Stage, Rainmaker matches are now longer and more exciting!", exclaimed Callie with enthusiasm. Valkyrie was pacing back and forth as she and her Team planned for the match, as she was still mad that her Team should've won the Tournament already and wanted it to come to fruition. Duke on the other hand, planned out the match with Sally, as she had past experience with the Stage and Mode combo. The Teams spawned in and headed out at the sound of the bell to break the Rainmaker Shield while Team Meta initiated their Battle Tactic. Green Team broke the Shield first and Duke grabbed it and headed for the Pedestal through Meta's Hill-Area. But Power splatted him with his Sting Ray before he could jump to Plat from the Block. Then Valkyrie and Omega splatted the rest of Green Team and broke the Rainmaker Shield again for Zero to pick up. As he was nearing the Pedestal, Power fired his Sting Ray towards it to clear the path, but Alex splatted Zero before he could climb it. Then the next three minutes of the match became a back-and-forth control war over the Rainmaker. But at the one minute mark, with the Rainmaker reset in Mid, Brittney fired off her Bubble Blower through Green's Half-Pipe to block off Valkyrie and Zero, when suddenly, Emma tossed her Fizzy Bomb in front of the Bubbles and its resulting blasts completely popped them and splatted Valkyrie and Zero. Alex then threw his Booyah Bomb at Omega as Duke fired off his Tenta Missiles at Power before he grabbed the Rainmaker. He then ordered his Teammates to push forward for him and initiate their Battle Tactic as he covered them with Rainmaker shots. Then Team Meta activated all their Specials to stop Green Team, but the other Green Team members distracted them long enough for Duke to slam-dunk the Rainmaker on its Pedestal seconds before Overtime was about to begin. The Judds declared Green Team the victor by Knockout over Team Meta's Score of 95. The commentators were amazed that Green Team won four consecutive matches to tie it up 4-4 going into the final Round! But Valkyrie was enraged by Duke's feat and swore to him that "he and his Team will pay for their insubordination" against her, and to "fear The Empress's wrath."

(Part 4.9: Round 9); It has come to this massive and monumental moment, the ninth and final Round of the Grand Finals, with Team Meta and Green Team battling for ultimate X-Rank supremacy, now tied at 4-4. Murch was taking bets for the match from other Inklings as the Teams began planning their strategies for their final battle, which was going to be Tower Control on Moray Towers, which had become even more controversial than before, even with it receiving renovation construction. Marie then stated that the Stage only has two Checkpoints instead of three. The Teams spawned in and headed out at the sound of the bell to take control of the Tower while Team Meta initiated their Battle Tactic. Valkyrie successfully got on the Tower while splatting Duke and Emma. Zero activated his Ink Armor as she cleared the first Checkpoint. Then Power fired his Sting Ray at the Tower as it reached the final Checkpoint, and then sniping Alex afterwards. But right before Valkyrie fully got the Tower on the Tower-Goal, Duke dropped down on her throwing his Burst Bombs, splatting her. Duke told Brittney to get on the Tower while he and the others pushed ahead as they initiated their Battle Tactic. But during the next three minutes, they couldn't get the Tower up the wall towards the Goal. When suddenly, during Overtime, Alex flanked Power and Zero at Overlook, splatting both of them so Brittney could fire off her Bubble Blower to protect the Tower. Then Duke took out Valkyrie before she could Baller toward them and reached Tower-Goal to end the match. The Judds declared Green Team the victor by Knockout over Team Meta's Score of 99, winning the Tournament 5-4. The commentators were beyond shocked that Green Team, not only beat a Team proven to be unbeatable, but made the first ever reverse-sweep in Inkopolis history! With their history-making victory, Duke and his Teammates were awarded their prizes on the podium in front of Deca Tower. As Duke was lifted up by his Teammates while holding the trophy for a front-page pic for the news press, Valkyrie was crushed by the loss she never expected, but began to accept Green Team's skill. Later, the Square was set up for a Off the Hook x Squid Sisters concert with a buffet that included what the competitors liked and the Teams were told they can wear the fancy clothes they won for the event, while Crusty Sean served drinks and desserts from his food truck. During the celebration, when Duke and his Team were enjoying their food, when Valkyrie came over and congratulated them for their win and commented on how good their aggressive playstyle is. Duke told her that Turf War isn't just all about battling for glory and showing unbeatable skill, but also the excitement and fun it brings. Valkyrie agreed with him and enjoyed the rest of the concert. The concert ended at midnight and as Valkyrie and her Team were heading for the subway station, she was stopped by three individuals in the shadows. She recognized them as the Leaders of the other Teams that were part of the "Elite X4", as her Team was too. One of them told her that Orange and Green Teams are ones to keep an eye on and that he and the others will be waiting for them in the next Turf War League and told Valkyrie that she and her Team needed to sharpen their skills for it. But a few weeks later, some random Turf War players were caught strangely using Princess Cannons as their Special in battles. When asked, they only stated that they got it from an "undisclosed source", and that the Weapons were bootleg knockoffs.

EPILOGUE: Chaos vs. Order

(Year: 2019 M.E); The Square was set up and the Chaos vs. Order Splatfest was about to begin! Marina announced that the Splatfest will be three days long and that the first day will have the twelve top Turf War Teams' favorite Stages in: Ancho-V Games, Inkblot Art Academy, Port Mackerel, MakoMart, Snapper Canal, Sturgeon Shipyard, Humpback Pump Track, The Reef, Manta Maria, Starfish Mainstage, New Albacore Hotel and Goby Arena, while having The Spicy Calamari Inkantation play. Then the second day will have the seven community-voted Shifty Stations in: The Secret of S.P.L.A.T., Zone of Glass, Wayslide Cool, Sweet Valley Tentacles, The Ink is Spreading, The Maze Dasher and Windmill House on the Pearlie, while having Ebb & Flow play. Finally, the third and final day will only have the newest Shifty Station: MC.Princess Diaries, while Fly Octo Fly ~ Ebb & Flow (Octo) plays. Then Pearl announced that Cody and Ashley will commentate the matches and the Teams who will participate with other players: Green, Blue, Turquoise, Yellow, Sky-Blue and Grizzco voted for Chaos, while Pink, Orange, Light Blue, Purple, Lemon and Meta voted for Order. After three days of hundreds of battles and hours of awesome music playing to them, the FinalFest was finally over! Everyone was exhausted and went home to rest up from all the epic battles and music. Then, the next morning, Inkopolis News came on and Off the Hook announced that the Judds had finally tallied the votes, wins and clout totals to reveal the victor as: Chaos! Claiming all three categories with close scores! Marina was disappointed and concerned if Off the Hook will break-up, but Pearl said she wants to stay together with her to try different music genres. Marina got a bit emotional, and Pearl cheered her up and promised that they will still be best friends to the bitter end. Marina wiped her tears and thanked Pearl for her compassion. And they enjoyed the rest of the week at New Albacore Hotel for a "girl's outing" as they acquired a week off due to the FinalFest.

(Aftermath); Justice is released from jail after too many panic attacks, so she could secretly go to emotional-therapy and amend her misbehavior. Marina was adopted into Pearl's family. Murch grew up, and Crusty Sean went into retirement. Also, Yellow and Light Blue Teams surprisingly disband, Lemon and Sky-Blue Ink were discontinued which lead to Lemon Team to disband as well and Olivia requested to change her Team's color to the returning Bright Red, which was accepted, Vent disbands Team Grizzco to recruit new members for Grizzco's next hiring season, while Sydney and Dane of Pink Team, along with Bill and Nana of Purple Team shockingly ditch their teammates. Jen and Jeff, concerned if their Teams will be expelled, asked Turf War lawyers if it is OK to join together with Nate and Janis to continue as Pink Team, which they agreed to. But then, Amy asked lawyers to change her Team's Ink Color to Purple to be sympathetic as well as wanting to still compete, which they also agree to. As a result, the lawyers again sent out requests to find new Inklings (and Octolings) to take those Team Colors, while also announcing that they are lifting the bans on some of the original fan-favorite Special Weapons, while banning a few of the Square League Specials due to them not being as strong on their own, situational and very controversial, and also ordered manufacturers to make modifications to the returning Specials along with making some brand new ones too. Hammerhead Bridge's construction was finally finished and announced to be returning for the next Turf War League along with Museum d'Alfonsino, Mahi-Mahi Resort and Flounder Heights. And that Turf War League was long on the horizon...

BONUS CHAPTER: MC.Inferno

(Year: 2020 M.E); Getting a bit bored while waiting for the new Turf War League, Sally decides to try a DJ/Rapper career under the name: "MC.Inferno", with Off the Hook as her tutors. She gained some popularity from her hit single: "The Scorch of Chaos", but she thought the career didn’t fit with her, and quit to continue her legendary Turf War career. But she still continues to rap for her Team to get fired up for battle, along with parties for friends. But got a text message from Cap'n Cuttlefish who says that he's retiring and chose her to take his place as Captain of the New Squidbeak Splatoon. Then a month later, Pearl and Marina went on a concert tour across the globe to show off their music. When they arrived in Splatsville, they recruited new band members and reformed as the new band "Damp Socks" with their Off the Hook branding for the upcoming Turf War League.

Story (S3)

PROLOGUE: Splatlands Safari

(Year: 2022 M.E); It was a typical August morning in Inkopolis Square. With Green, Pink, Turquoise, Orange, Purple and Bright Red Teams chilling in the Square, bored out of their minds with the Square's Turf War League concluding for over two years, along with The Gallaria, Grizzco Industries and The Shoal being shut down. Jen was staring into Inkopolis News Studio, reminiscing about Off the Hook and the happy memories she had with them after the FinalFest, when suddenly, everyone there got a new notification on their phones. It was from SplatNet! Everybody got very excited, as SplatNet hadn't posted news in ages. The article stated that the next Turf War League was confirmed to start in early September in a city called: "Splatsville". Nicknamed the City of Chaos, it was located in a hash desert region called "The Splatlands". Everyone was thinking the same thing in that precise moment; they gathered their winnings from the Square League to buy tickets for the trip. Jen pulled up the global map on her phone to find the region's location. It was on the other side of Inkopolis Bay! Duke resolved that the Teams get bus tickets, as construction on Hammerhead Bridge finished late 2021 and was the fastest route to Splatsville. Everyone went to the bus station and board a whole single bus and went off. But after forty minutes into the ride, the bus unsuspectingly hit a pothole. The bus driver Jellyfish inspected the damage; it got a flat tire and a blown piston, and he can't call for repairs due to having no signal on his CB-radio. But he told the Teams that there is a train station that leads directly to Splatsville twenty miles northwest of their location, and that they had to hike across the Splatlands to get to it, but warned them that he heard rumors that the Splatlandian Inklings (and Octolings) were very "edgy" and don't take kindly to outsiders. Everyone got off the bus and thanked him for the ride and proceeded for the long walk. After two hours of walking, and some complaining from Olivia as she forced herself to walk barefoot as she didn't want to ruin her Online Squidkids, the group found themselves in a area filled with rusted metal when suddenly, they heard something. Meanwhile, an Inkling salvager was digging through a pile of scrap metal with a Smallfry playing with a screw close by, when she heard a commotion nearby and proceeded to hide the Smallfry in her backpack and readied her Weapon. Sally walked ahead and saw the Inkling aiming at her, and told her to not shoot. Stating that she and her friends were looking for the train station that leads to Splatsville, as they were elite Turf War Teams from Inkopolis. The Inkling lowered her Weapon and stated that her name was Lisa and told them that the train station was up the ridge near the Crater, and that she was also joining the new League with a Team of her own. Sally thanked her and the group headed towards the train station, where they waited half an hour for the train to arrive. They were relieved that they can finally rest after the exhausting hike and enjoy the air conditioning. After an hour, they finally saw the cityscape and arrived at Splatsville Metro, where they all looked for a hotel to rest up for the night. The next morning, they got themselves signed up into the Splatsville League and enjoyed the sights and entertainment the city had to offer until the day the League began.

CHAPTER 1: Splatsville Uprising

(Year: 2022 M.E); The day of the Splatsville League came, and Green, Sky-Blue, Pink, Turquoise, Orange and Purple Teams arrived at the city's main Turf War hangout spot; "Anarchy Avenue", and spotted six more Teams in Yellow, Blue, Indigo, Lime, Marigold and Cyan. They spotted Lisa and her Teammates and began to chat, when suddenly everyone heard a cringe voice, bragging that the Ultra Stamp will dominate the League, which turned out to be the leader of the new Blue Team; an Octoling Boy named Connor. Lisa got annoyed by this and played some C-Side music on her phone through her Cephalo Pods. Sally asked her is she had a beef with him in the past. Lisa stated that they were in the same special-ed class in high school, and he had childish outbursts when he didn't get breaks or was struggling with an assignment, leading her to sit at the opposite end of the room from him due to getting annoyed by his immaturity. After the conversation, everyone got a notification on their phones. It was the Anarchy Splatcast and its hosts; Shiver, Frye & Big Man, started with breaking news. The Great Zapfish had disappeared once again! But everyone ignored the dilemma while Shiver announced the Qualifying Turf War matches which will be on Scorch Gorge, and the matchups being: Yellow vs. Blue, Green vs. Sky-Blue, Pink vs. Turquoise, Orange vs. Indigo, Purple vs. Lime and Bright Red vs. Cyan, while being commentated by Jordan & Elizabeth.

(Part 1: Qualifying Rounds); The Judds then told everyone there through their telepathy about the rules and requirements to participate in Turf War, and pointed to the area's shopping center: Anarchy Aquisitions. Everyone purchased what they wanted with no problems, except for when Lisa accidentally left Man-o'-Wardrobe without paying for her shirt, as Connor was yapping nonsense. She went back to finish her purchase after Connor was done there despite Jel La Fleur's rage towards her misdeed. After that, everyone got on the train to the city outskirts and headed to Scorch Gorge on ATVs. It was Yellow vs. Blue first, but halfway through the match, Blue Team was falling behind, which lead Connor to freak out and destroy his Jump-Limiter and shockingly Super Jump out of the battle, leading the Judds to declare the match a draw and cancel it. When everyone got back, they see Ammo Knights surrounded by police officers trying to stop Connor, who was demolishing the shop in anger and screaming at everything he threw at the floor. The officers finally arrest him for aggravated arson of a major business. The other members of Blue Team, Ally and Zack were humiliated so much that they demanded Turf War lawyers to ban Connor along with Lucy off the Team because of their inappropriate sportsmanship and attitudes, which threw Lucy into a rage and called them "dong-heads" for not seeing her glorious skill and spat towards them. The cruel act made the lawyers agree to Ally and Zack's request and started advertising for new members for the Team. The other matches continued afterwards with now issues and the other new Teams got their starting Ranks while the veterans got their's updated, along with the Yellow vs. Blue matchup being delayed. Enraged, Lisa demanded for a Qualifying match with a Team of random players, which eventually happens, but lead her Team to get a lower Rank than usual at B-. Which lead her to challenge the other Teams to Turf War for the following day to try and raise it more, which they all agreed to. Later that evening, Lisa was relaxing at the Battle Lobby's café, pondering on the rough day she had, when Sally came after a Turf War session to enjoy a juice from the Crab-N-Go. She saw Lisa watching Splat-Stop clips of suburban brawls on her phone, which lead Sally to tell her about the rivalry she had back in the Plaza League and how it eventually cheered her up in the end, and said that it will get better for her tomorrow during her challenger-run to lift her moral before finishing her drink and heading for her apartment. Seeing that it was getting late, and having listened to Sally's advice, left for her apartment to prepare for her Team's big day tomorrow.

CHAPTER 2: A Rogue's Redemption

(Year: 2022 M.E); It was a week after the "Connor-Fiasco" and Yellow Team's challenger-run, when Deep Cut announced that the new members for Blue Team have arrived, and revealed to be Justice and Kit. But Sally didn't take the news well and attempted to punch Justice in the face only for her to block it with her bare hands, explaining that she regretted her past actions and wants to redeem herself with a new Team. Sally then angerly asked her why she wasn't in jail in Inkopolis, which Justice explains that the jail security thought that the conditions and atmosphere of the complex, along with her having too many panic attacks, lead her to being released and ordered to join emotional-therapy groups. She also explains that Hunter was constantly getting into fights with violent inmates, with one in particular: "Terror Finblade", who got him severely injured. When she described his injuries, Sally got a joyful smirk on her face and forgave Justice for her old antics. Then, as Justice and Kit aquired their weapons and gear, the Judds announced through their telepathy that the long awaited Yellow vs. Blue matchup was ready and will take place on Eeltail Alley. With Justice doing really good in the match in terms of mentality and skill, even though she lost. Afterwards, Justice asked Lisa for a rematch tomorrow, as she had fun and wanted to challenge her Team to perform better, which Lisa agreed to. That night, Sally, Justice and Lisa went on a stroll around Splatsville after a squad-run of Turf War with Jen, when they suddenly heard someone yelling profanity and threats toward them as they entered a back alley. They turned around only to see Lucy, filled with rage, approach them holding a knife and a sliced lemon, shouting that they will all share the same fate as her ex, as payback for "ruining her Turf War dream", and charged at them. But Sally defended her new friends by hitting Lucy with a roundhouse-kick to her face. A police officer arrived to find out what happened, and arrested Lucy for attempted felony assault and sentenced to ten years in prison. After the courtroom session the following evening, Sally, Justice and Lisa decided to get lunch together, but after they finished eating, Sally suddenly got a phone call from Callie and Marie saying that they need her for an important recon mission in Octarian territory to keep an eye on them. Sally left as Lisa payed for the food and told Justice good luck for their match tomorrow.

CHAPTER 3: Salmon Run – The Next Wave

(Year: 2022 M.E);
Tease Banther: Grizzco Industries is hiring again. This time, full time! As the Salmonid threat still looms and growing fast, more talented youth is needed. Lisa, Justice, Karen and Rey decide to get employed, but have to work with the vile Vent and his relentless new Team Grizzco. Can they work together to survive this Next Wave? And face the destructive wrath of the King Salmonids?!

CHAPTER 4: Return of the Mammalians

(Year: 2022 M.E); After a long day of salvaging, Lisa and Robbie were heading back to the train station, where they suddenly spotted a bizarre trail of Ink leading deep into the Crater. Robbie leeps out of Lisa's backpack and starts following to where it leads, with Lisa chasing after him. After grabbing him near where the trail ended and scolding him, she spots an old Inkling Man staring at them, with monstrous piles of wierd goo behind him. He tells them that his name is Craig Cuttlefish, the senior supervisor of the New Squidbeak Splatoon and that he believes that the Octarians were behind the disappearance of the Great Zapfish, as they stole it twice before. Lisa offered to help and Cuttlefish gives her a brand new set Hero Gear and Hero Shot, while dubbing her Agent 3.

(Part 1: The Crater); Then Robbie got loose again, heading for the wierd goo, which Cuttlefish stated was called Fuzzy Ooze. Agent 3 grabbed him again and spotted a series of Gold Kettles which Cuttlefish told her were the entrances to the Octarian's hideouts. Agent 3 enters the first one and clears it easily and saves a Zapfish in the process. She came back with a bunch of Power Eggs which were giving a wierd feeling to Robbie, seeing a large mound of Fuzzy Ooze with a Fuzz Ball blocking the way further down. Robbie suddenly lept towards it and shocking eats the Fuzz Ball, which destroyed the barricade. Cuttlefish was impressed and requested Agent 3 to find more Power Eggs in the next three missions to completely clear away the Fuzzy Ooze. She clears them swiftly while saving another three Zapfish. Then Cuttlefish saw that the Octarians looked wierd and thought that this mission would need some backup and called the New Squidbeak Splatoon for help, with
Agents 1 & 2 agreeing to meet him later. Now at the bottom of the Crater, they both heard a rumbling above them, when suddenly DJ Octavio came down in his Octobot King L3.Gs along with Octrina, saying that he will get his Army back. But Cuttlefish didn't hear his remark and demanded to give back the Great Zapfish. Octavio told him to shut up and proceeded to fight Agent 3. Octavio proceeded to launch the Octobot King's fists at Agent 3. But she dodged and shot them back at Octavio. After getting hit a few more times, Octavio ordered Octrina to attack, which she quickly does and whipped out her Octo Blaster and engaged. Agent 3 put up a hard fight with her, but then Octrina suddenly activated a Killer Wail 5.1 and fired it off. But Agent 3 avoided it and shattered the shield on Octrina's Armor, forcing her to retreat back to Octavio. Furious, Octavio fired off some drill-punches before activating an Ink Vac on the Octobot to pin down Agent 3 as he fired a slap-fist at her. As Agent 3 dodged, Robbie came flying out of her backpack and suddenly jammed Octavio's Ink Vac, leading him to fire another fist, which Agent 3 shot back. Leading Octavio to get flung out of the Octobot King L3.Gs. As the machine broke down and fell off the cliff and Octrina came to help Octavio back up, Agent 3 and Cuttlefish came towards them stating that Octavio's Octobot King wasn't as powerful as he thought the Great Zapfish would give him. But Octavio then stated that he didn't even steal it, when suddenly Fuzzy Ooze began to seep from beneath them and multiple Fuzzy tentacles smashed the platform they were on, leading them all to fall down into a massive hole. During the decent, a Fuzzy tentacle suddenly grabbed Cuttlefish and dragged him down. Helplessly in free-fall, Agent 3's Hero Suit began to fall off her body, leaving her back in her salvager uniform before she lost consciousness from falling debris. Meanwhile, a mysterious trio saw this and began to plot something...

(Part 2: Arriving in Alterna); Agent 3 was still unconscious from the fall, with Robbie wondering on how to wake her and proceeded to bite her nose. Agent 3 awoke from the pain, thinking she landed face first on the ground. When she opened her eyes, she was in disbelief to see a snowy landscape home to some kind of research site and a large rocket, along with a crazy ton of Fuzzy Ooze everywhere. Getting her bearings back, she suddenly heard someone calling for her. It was Agent 1, who was also with Agent 2 and a serious looking Inkling Girl. The Agents introduced themselves as the Squid Sisters to Agent 3 and agreed to help her find Cuttlefish (who they had a tracker on) and rescue the Great Zapfish, along with stating that they are in a place called "Alterna". Then the Inkling Girl stated that Agent 3 seemed ill equipped, as Agent 3 suddenly recognized her voice as Sally's. She said she is the Captain of the New Squidbeak Splatoon and was the original Agent 3 before her, and offered to help Agent 3 get back into her full-power state if she brought enough Upgrade Medallions. Agent 3 proceeded to the first mission, but when she entered it, a mysterious computerized voice welcomed her to Alterna's research Stations, and that its name is O.R.C.A.; the colony's AI guide. Sally was suspicious of its intentions and asked if it was related to the "manipulating slime-circuit" Tartar. But O.R.C.A. stated that it has no recollection of an AI of that name, and offered Agent 3 statistics of each mission she enters. Agents 1 & 2 said to go for it, and Agent 3 cleared the mission and aquired a large amount of Power Eggs. Which Robbie used to clear away the Fuzzy Ooze blocking the path to the next Site. After clearing nine more missions, Agent 3 aquired enough Power Eggs to access the pressure tube leading to the next Site, when suddenly someone demanded that the squad stop. They turn around and see none other than Deep Cut. Agent 2 was wondering why they weren't in Splatsville hosting its news, but Frye stated that it was just a gig to cover their true motives as bandits. Shiver was in awe that there was another world beneath the Crater and laughed to herself about the amount of loot to find, with Big Man agreeing with her. Agent 3 tried to reason with them, but Frye scolded her as Deep Cut left for their quest. Sally predicted that they might try to stop them and warned Agent 3 to stay alert as the squad headed for the next Site.

(Part 3: Eelin' 'n' Wheelin'); After existing the pressure tube, the New Squidbeak Splatoon arrived at the Site called: "Cozy & Safe Factory", where Agent 2 pinpointed Cuttlefish's location on the tallest water tower, but the path to it was blocked by multiple mounds of Fuzzy Ooze. Agent 3 explored a bit and found more Upgrade Medallions, which Captain Sally used to upgrade the Hero Shot and give her a new pair of Hero Boots. After clearing the eight missions at the Site and collecting a huge haul of Power Eggs, Agent 3 headed for the tracker's location, with Robbie destroying the Fuzzy Ooze blocking it. After reaching the top, Agent 3 found a Boss Kettle and entered it to hopefully find Cuttlefish. But instead encountered Frye who said that she was about to aquire treasure, but called Agent 3 a pushover for trying to stop her and plays her flute to summon a massive cube that contained her pet moray eels, that had a sad, lifeless face that reminded Agent 2 of the Octostomp. Frye played her music as the cube span like a top towards Agent 3 while the eels flew towards her. Agent 3 dodged them and saw that some of the eels had Inkling eye markings on them and decided to shot them. She does and the eels got launched back at Frye's machine, causing it to topple down and stun her. Agent 3 swam up the cube to help Frye, but she karate kicked her off instead. Flustered, Frye summoned more of her eels and played a tune that made them create a whirlwind of her Ink as she spun her machine, which reminded Sally of her favorite TV show as a kid that had a martial art called "Vortixu". Dodging the Ink being flung everywhere, Agent 3 splatted the normal eels that were creating the vortex protecting the ones with the eye markings. But they then lashed at her simultaneously. She dodged them and shot them back at Frye, once again stopping her machine. Realizing the strength Agent 3 possessed, Frye decided to retreat as the cube exploded, telling Agent 3 that her other bandmates won't go easy on her as she did. Then the giant vault in the background opened and a platform moved toward the arena that contained something that caught Agent 3's interest. As she investigated, Agent 1 theorized that it was the treasure that Frye was looking for, so Agent 3 brought it back to the squad's camp for safekeeping. Then suddenly, they got a transmission from Cuttlefish! Agents 1 & 2 asked where he was and if he was OK, but he had no clue as it was pitch-dark but was fine nonetheless. Sally breathed a sigh of relief before telling Agent 3 to destroy the Fuzzy Ooze blocking the pressure tube leading to the next Site, which she successfully accomplished and the squad headed there.

(Part 4: Jaws of Cold Justice); The New Squidbeak Splatoon soon arrived at the Site called: "Cryogenic Hopetown", where Agent 1 advised
Agent 3 to be careful not to loose traction on the slippery ice near more mounds of Fuzzy Ooze. Agent 3 explored a bit as she cleared the seven missions there and Robbie found more Upgrade Medallions so Captain Sally could forge a new Hero Mindset for Agent 3 to pinpoint hidden enemies and traps easier, and giving her Splat Bombs as well. Seeing that there was nothing else important there, Robbie destroyed the Fuzzy Ooze blocking the pressure tube with the Power Eggs Agent 3 collected that lead to the next Site. The squad headed through and reached "Landfill Dreamland", where Agent 2 pinpointed another of Cuttlefish's signals at the highest point on the Site. But was once again blocked by more Fuzzy Ooze mounds. Agent 3 proceeded to clear the Site's twelve missions and collected the Power Eggs needed to destroy the barricades and finds another Boss Kettle and enters it, only to encounter Shiver who tells Agent 3 that she's being a "persistent pain in the port-bow" and plans to punish her. She then summoned her pet megalodon "Master Mega" and sat on its saddle to then dive straight at Agent 3. She dodges and shot at Master Mega, which showed little signs of damage as it swam in the pool of Ink surrounding the arena and fired fast slashes of Ink at Agent 3. Shiver then ordered Master Mega swim beneath the arena and strike from below. As Agent 3 waited for the opportunity to strike, she saw Robbie got loose again and suddenly got eaten by Master Mega! But suddenly, it got immobilized and was flailing around, as Robbie was attacking its throat. Shiver demanded it to spit out the pest before Agent 3 did a super jump towards her and activated her Splashdown. Launching Master Mega into the pool dazzed and spat out Robbie, and Shiver landing at the center of the arena looking weakened. Agent 3 went over to see if she was OK, but Shiver gave her a demented look and slapped Agent 3 in the face with her fan. She then got back on Master Mega, telling it that she is getting frustrated with Agent 3 and to go full-throttle as it created cyclones of Ink from the pool which Master Mega jumped from one to the other before firing a barrage of Ink lazers from its mouth at Agent 3. Seeing an opening in between shots, Agent 3 tossed a Splat Bomb into its mouth to stun the beast again. Seemingly outmatched, Shiver laughed maniacally towards Agent 3 that she hasn't seen the last of Deep Cut as she and Master Mega retreated after detonating a smoke bomb. With the coast clear, the giant vault suddenly opened revealing a platform holding something important as a Launchpad leading to it appeared. Agent 3 found another piece of treasure and brought it back to camp. The squad then got another call from Cuttlefish saying he had been trying to find a way out, but wasn't having any luck. When suddenly a mysterious voice spoke that he was pleased that Cuttlefish was finally awake. Cuttlefish demanded to know who it was, as the individual said that his name is Mr. Grizz and that Cuttlefish was the key to fulfilling his plan before the signal was lost. Agent 3 was confused of why Grizz wanted Cuttlefish to help Splatsville's economy. But Sally told her that some friends of her's temporarily worked for him during the Inkopolis Square League and found he and his company suspicious. As nobody even knew what Mr. Grizz's true identity was outside of the wooden bear carving or what the Golden Eggs were for. Hoping to uncover more clues and follow the remaining signal of Cuttlefish's location, the squad proceeded through the pressure tube leading to the next Site, with Captain Sally getting concerned about Cuttlefish...

(Part 5: Phanta Manta Basha); After exiting the pressure tube, the squad arrived at the Site called: "Eco-Forest Treehills" where Agent 3 and Robbie explored around while clearing the thirteen missions there and destroying the Fuzzy Ooze blocking the path to the next Site. Before they headed out, Agent 3 gave Captain Sally more Upgrade Medallions to bring the Hero Shot back to full-power and made a new Hero Suit for her. Soon they headed through the pressure tube leading to the final Site called: "Happiness Research Lab" where Agent 2 located the last of Cuttlefish's signals on top of the tallest building. After clearing the Site's twelve missions and collecting enough Power Eggs, Agent 3 and Robbie destroyed the barricade of Fuzzy Ooze and headed towards the signal, where she found another Boss Kettle. She enters it only to encounter
Big Man telling her that he found treasure that she can't have and dives into his Ink and emits a manta ray hologram and drifts towards her while tossing out bombs. Agent 3 proceeded to fire at him, but as she did the hologram began to split and multiplied every time she shot it. Using her Hero Mindset, Agent 3 pinpointed where Big Man was hiding and stunned him. As he prepared to dive again, Big Man elevated four corners of the arena and emitted a larger hologram to potentially corner and disorient her while firing of more bombs. Agent 3 stood firm and fired at the hologram to eventually find and stun him again. Big Man then said that he was disappointed on his performance and dropped a smoke bomb to cover his retreat. Then the giant vault in the background opened revealing a platform moving towards the arena that held another piece of treasure. Agent 3 retrieved it and brought it back to camp. Sally then said that Deep Cut must be furious as she brought out some crabby cakes for the squad, before they got another transmission from Cuttlefish. Saying that he finally got his receiver working again and he's being held captive by Mr. Grizz, but still doesn't know where he is, but feels like it's at high altitude. Agent 2 then realized where the place was, when suddenly Mr. Grizz interupted again stating that he will deal with Cuttlefish before he became an "inconvenience" as Cuttlefish yelled for help right before the transmission cut-off. Agent 1 figured out that their last destination was the rocket and its Space Center that were surrounded by a swamp of thick Fuzzy Ooze. Agent 2 then wondered if the pieces of treasure they got might help get rid of the furr, as Agent 3 was low on Power Eggs and Robbie just gave a derpy, confused look at the group as he saw their predicament and having a full stomach.

(Part 6: Alterna Space Center); After making a new Ink Tank along with some Burst Bombs and Curling Bombs out of the remaining Upgrade Medallions Agent 3 had for her, Captain Sally, along with Agents 1 & 2, proceed to make a tool from the treasure. The resulting device turned out as a giant lawn mower-like yard edger, as Sally charged up her strength and decimated all the thick Fuzzy Ooze surrounding the Alterna Space Center. The Agents came over to her at the complex's entrance, where she stated that the device blew a fuse right after she finished and she also pulled a forearm muscle, but will be fine nonetheless. But as Agent 3 was about to climb up the stairs into the complex, Deep Cut appeared as they were raring for another fight for the treasure. But Marie told them that they can have it, as the squad was done with it. Shocked by this, Shiver and Frye were lost for words and asked for forgiveness for battling Agent 3, as Shiver stated that Marie was doing a "boss" move, leading her to ask if she would be the trio's boss, which Callie joked toward her cousin, as Deep Cut decided to tag along with them. After the brief interruption, Agent 3 entered the Space Center, only for O.R.C.A. to confiscate her Hero Gear at an Equipper for security reasons. Sally then told her to find another Equipper to get it all back. As Agent 3 and Robbie investigated around while dealing with Octarian scouts, Callie asked Deep Cut what they plan to do with the treasure. Frye stated that a majority of Splatsville's citizens live unpleasant lives and planned to sell it for money, while giving 91% of it to charities and splitting the remaining 9% amongst the trio, which surprised Marie. A while after that, Agent 3 eventually got her Hero Gear back and proceeded through an air vent, which lead her to the complex's outer balcony, where the group overheard Mr. Grizz telling Cuttlefish that he will help him bristle forth a "fuzzy & profitable new era". Then Agent 3 slipped through a drainage pipe leading to the complex's hangar bay where she steamrolled through Octarian scouts with the various Specials she found and enter an air duct leading to the complex's roof where she heard Mr. Grizz stating that mammals and sea creatures have "traded places in nature for the worst" and he needs to "bring back balance to it", while saying that his employees have been extremely diligent in collecting millions of Golden Eggs for him. Agent 3 slipped through another air vent leading towards the complex's cargo lift. But before she could activate it, she got ambushed by a Grizzco Employee, which confused her. The individual turned to face her, and to her shock, turned out to be Vent, who was somehow being controlled by Grizz! He attacks her with his Grizzco Blaster as she fled for cover, while also activating the lift. As it moved downward, Agent 3 threw a Burst Bomb at Vent during their scuffle, leading his Headgear to fall off, revealing a small Fuzz Ball on his head. Prompting Agent 3 to toss Robbie so he can eat it off and hopefully free him. The plan worked as Vent got back to his senses and asked her why he was fighting her in a bizarre place. Agent 3 told him to just regroup with the New Squidbeak Splatoon as she proceeded towards the exit at the base of the rocket, where Frye spotted a fuel line leading into the rocket. Agent 3 enters it and finds herself inside the rocket, which O.R.C.A. stated was called "The Spirit Lifter". As Agent 3 climbed to the top, she spotted the Great Zapfish trapped in a giant battery cell and proceeded into the rocket's cargo hold, which was filled with Fuzzy Ooze. Seeing that the exit was further up, Agent 3 was preparing to climb up when O.R.C.A. announced that the rocket was preparing for launch and sealed the hold's bulkheads. Annoyed by this, Captain Sally spotted clusters of Energy Cores and told Agent 3 to collect them in hopes of opening the bulkheads. Agent 3 equips a Zipcaster and collected all the Energy Cores, opening not only the bulkheads, but also the rocket's exit hatch. She exited to the complex's outer scaffolding, only to overhear Grizz talking about the three keys to his business plan: "The vessel, spirit and wisdom of ages", before proceeding to do something to Cuttlefish. As his cries and moans of pain were heard, the New Squidbeak Splatoon hurried to save him...

(Part 7: The Roche Limit of Furry Fury); The squad reached the top of the complex, ready to save Cuttlefish, but to their horror, found Cuttlefish as a dead, dehydrated squid! As Callie, Marie and Sally were reeling from this, a massive shadow loomed over them. It was Mr. Grizz. Revealing himself to be an actual bear. Callie demanded him to return Cuttlefish back to normal, but instead he stated that he accepts the squad's outcries, but won't resolve their mourning as the rocket's engines were suddenly ignited and the rocket launched. With Grizz holding on, he stated that he will end their "employment" by covering Earth in Fuzzy Ooze to restore nature's balance. As the rocket exited Alterna, Callie and Marie checked on Captain Sally, who was holding Cuttlefish. As she shed her first tear in almost a decade, it landed on Cuttlefish, and, miraculously revived him! Callie and Marie were overjoyed that their grandfather was OK, but Agent 3 reminded them that they still need to stop Mr. Grizz from bringing Hairmaggedon. As Marie stated that it would be impossible to reach Earth's orbit in time, Deep Cut came and offered to help. Frye summoned her eels to create a cyclone of Ink breaching the dome, Shiver then summoned Master Mega to help Agent 3 ride the cyclone and give her the momentum needed to breach the atmosphere, and finally Big Man gave Agent 3 a special Hero Suit to survive in space. As she and Robbie rode the cyclone, Agent 3 jumped off Master Mega and super jumped to the dual to save the world. But as the squad wished her good luck, Sally noticed that Vent was gone. Agent 3 then landed at the rocket's stern and found it covered in Fuzzy Ooze. She turned to look in her backpack to motivate Robbie, but saw that he was standing next to her. Confused by this she felt something in her backpack and found out that Vent had snuck inside in his swim-form. Now also wearing an Astro Helm, he told Agent 3 that he only came so he can get revenge on Grizz for manipulating him for five whole years. Then suddenly, Mr. Grizz appeared and commented them for their "work commitment" and that they deserve a break, and started firing off Octorpedoes. Agent 3 saw a bunch of Golden Eggs and proceeded to collect them, which Robbie used to eat the Fuzz Balls blocking the path to Grizz. When they reached him, Agent 3 saw three scabs on Mr. Grizz's belly, when Vent suddenly fired at one of them with his Grizzco Blaster, breaking it to reveal a Fuzz Ball. Vent then gave Agent 3 some more Golden Eggs he found and Robbie used them to eat the Fuzz Ball on Grizz. Seeing this, Mr. Grizz retreated further up the rocket and proceeded to curl up and rotate the it. Agent 3 and Vent inked and swam their way with the rotation while collecting more Golden Eggs as Grizz eventually stopped and summoned Fuzzy Octarians to slow them down. After destroying the remaining Fuzz Ball and engaging Grizz again, he then launched Triple Inkstrikes to scatter them. As Vent revealed the remaining Fuzz Balls on Grizz, and Agent 3 collected more Golden Eggs and restored contact with the New Squidbeak Splatoon, Mr. Grizz let out a Killer Wail-like roar at them. Agent 3 dodged and threw Robbie at the Fuzz Balls, destroying them, but Grizz was unfazed and stated that it was time for them to "clock-out" and let out a roar that triggered several explosions that severely damaged the rocket and set its course back towards Earth, which also launched Agent 3, Robbie and Vent off the rocket. But as they floated away, DJ Octavio and Octrina flew by in an upgraded Octobot King L3.Gs to grab them in time. Octavio was ready to dish out payback on Grizz and proceeded to play the Calamari Inkantation 3MIX along with the New Squidbeak Splatoon and Deep Cut assisting through the coms. Hearing the song, Robbie started to glow and float up, as marine-life energy was absorbing into him and started to undergo a transformation. As Shiver and Frye recited an ancient prophecy passed down in the Splatlands, Robbie turned into the titanic Hugefry and rared to fight Mr. Grizz, who also grew to a massive size due to absorbing large amounts of Fuzzy Ooze. Sally noticed four giant Fuzz Balls on Grizz's body and told Agent 3 and Octavio to destroy them with the Octobot King's supercharged Ink Vac while Robbie fought Grizz in the three minutes and thirty-three seconds before the rocket breaches Earth's atmosphere. As they proceeded to destroy the first Fuzz Ball, Grizz summoned fake Fuzz Balls in the vicinity to deeter them away and squads of Fuzzy Octarians onto the Octobot King to distract them, but to no avail, as Octavio easily maneuvered around the fakes while Agent 3, Vent and Octrina splatted the Fuzzy Octarians. After destroying the third Fuzz Ball, Robbie managed to pin down Mr. Grizz's arms and get him in a headlock as he summoned Fuzzy Elite Octolings and more fake Fuzz Balls to stop them, but to no avail. After destroying the last Fuzz Ball, Mr. Grizz was still moving. Then DJ Octavio set the Octobot King's Ink Vac to its cannon setting to blast the Fuzz back and Octrina gave Agent 3 a Trizooka and connected it to the Vac and blasted Mr. Grizz out of his misery. In his dying breath, Mr. Grizz said that he wished to go back in time and stop them, but agreed that the world won't be what it used to going into the future, and said that Vent and Agent 3 won't get "service pay" right as the rocket exploded in a supernova of Yellow Ink, killing him and freeing the Great Zapfish. Then Robbie reverted back to his normal Smallfry form and embraced Agent 3 as they headed back to Earth. As they returned to Alterna, Cuttlefish asked Octavio how he came to help in the nick of time. He stated that he and Octrina landed with the Octobot King on one of the far off islands in Alterna and were hiding there to repair and upgrade it with the rocket parts they found and heard Mr. Grizz monologing about his plan through radio interference and saw the Spirit Lifter launch. And stated that the Calamari Inkantation freed them in that moment and thanked the New Squidbeak Splatoon for helping and apologized to Cuttlefish for backstabbing him before heading back to Octo Valley. As the New Squidbeak Splatoon, Deep Cut and Vent celebrated at camp, Marie wondered what will happen to Grizzco Industries now, as it no longer has a CEO. When Vent offered to do so and reformat the company himself and unionize it. Three days later, Deep Cut aired a special Anarchy Splatcast segment announcing that the Great Zapfish had returned to its rightful place in Splatsville, along with Grizzco Industries now being under new management as a anti-Salmonid workforce and that it joined Splatsville and Inkopolis' worker's unions. They then got word from their bosses about the Squid Sisters's new song, when they saw the album cover from the director Jellyfish, they were surprised that Deep Cut's new bosses were actually the Squid Sisters! Frye was hyped for a potential colab tour as Shiver signed off with the Squid Sisters' new song "Wave Goodbye". After the broadcast, later that night, Sally snuck into Grizzco Industries and stole the bear carving while replacing it with a blasphemous opposite version she made earlier, while Vent and Lisa snuck onto the work-sites disguised in Chaos Commander Gear to confiscate the Egg Baskets, as there was no longer a need for Golden Eggs. But some Fuzzy Octarians lead by a maniacal Elite Octoling were hiding in Alterna, planning a Mammalian resistance...

(Bonus: Finding the Cure); One week after stopping the return of the Mammalians, Lisa and Robbie were out on a salvage run where she suddenly got a phone call as she was trading in her recent finds. It was Captain Sally, who told her that she and the Squid Sisters need her again for a special mission back in Alterna, but will brief her there when she arrived. She put Robbie in her backpack and proceeded back down the Crater into Alterna, where she equipped her Hero Gear and met with the New Squidbeak Splatoon. She asked Sally what the mission was and who offered it, when Octrina came over from behind the camp's crates stating that she might have an idea to revert the Octarians back to normal. Marie then said that she and Callie went back to the Alterna Space Center to dig for information on the matter, and found a log detailing how Mr. Grizz created the Fuzzy Ooze. With Callie stating that he used the crystals that adorned the walls of Alterna to make it, with Octrina saying that they could be used in a similar way on the Fuzzy Octarians by combining them with a sample of Octarian Ink she brought. But Cuttlefish said that if the crystals were all over the dome's walls... It would be completely impossible to get them, as they don't have a ways of getting them. With Captain Sally replying that she pinpointed a Gold Kettle that contained a large reserve of them that's ripe for the taking, but Octrina then said there is a garrison of Fuzzy Octarians hiding out there, and that she knows who's leading them. Her old friend Francine, who has gone completely insane from Fuzzy Ooze corruption and she wants Agent 3 to bring her back alive. Agent 3 then found the Kettle right where she landed when she arrived in Alterna for the first time hidden in the snow. She entered it and found a condemned area filled with Fuzzy Octarians and platforms. She breezes past the obstacles and enemy ambushes until she found the reserve of crystals, when a maniacal scream suddenly broke the silence. It was Francine rallying a battalion of Fuzzy Octolings in an arena. Agent 3 called to her by name, stating that she's here for the crystals to restore the Octarian Army. But Francine told her to "go splat herself" and her name was now "Furrcine", and said that she will avenge Mr. Grizz and start a Mammalian resistance. Agent 3 engaged the platoon, with six Octolings placing Wave Breakers and fought back as Furrcine watched with demented glee. Agent 3 jumped over the Waves and splatted a few of the Octolings, with the remaining ones activating Inkjets, but were taken out by Agent 3's Trizooka. Furrcine then summoned six more Enemy Octolings who activated Big Bubblers and tossing Ink Storms. Agent 3 held her ground as she aquired and activated a Crab Tank and fired off, breaking the Bubblers and splatting the remaining Octolings. Furious, Furrcine summoned another six Enemy Octolings who all fired off Tenta Missiles at her. Fleeing from the massive barrage, Agent 3 managed to obtain a Reefslider and proceeded to aim it and dash straight into their defenses and splat them all. Now filled with rage, Furrcine decided to fight Agent 3 herself and whips out her Savage Neo Octobrush and engages her. But as she was cornered by Agent 3, she activated a Splashdown. Agent 3 prepared to shoot her out of it, but to her surprise, flew over her at the Splashdown's peak with a Zipcaster. She perched herself on a pole and wiped out another Octobrush before leaping into the air and stretched her leg towards Agent 3 and zipped towards her. Agent 3 decided to toss Robbie at her and he proceeded to bite at Furrcine's face as she landed. Disoriented while yelling in pain at Robbie and trying to pry him off, Furrcine dropped her Weapons and prepared another Splashdown, but Agent 3 damaged her just enough to diffuse her Special but not splat her. Agent 3 then tied up and gagged Furrcine as she collected the crystals and brought them both back to camp. As Sally and Marie developed the cure, Agent 3 asked Octrina on what Francine did in the Army. She stated that Francine was originally an obedient and wise woman and martial artist for the Army and even did monthly yoga classes at times. With the substance finished, Octrina placed a dab of it on Francine's head, and she suddenly began to glow. Leading the Fuzzy Ooze that corrupted her to disintegrate and turn her back to normal. Seeing that it worked, Sally asked Marie to weaponize it with Low-Tide Ink, which she does and gives Ink Tanks of it to Agent 3 and Octrina as they ventured all over Alterna and cured all the surviving Octarians. Now freed, Octrina and Francine thanked the squad for their help as they left for Octo Valley, with Octrina saying that she forgot to mention that Octavio told her to relay that he will no longer be a threat due to him being freed by the Inkantation and invited Sally there to offer a trade agreement for Zapfish, which was eventually signed and successful. After eating crabby cakes Sally made, Lisa and Robbie left for Splatsville to enjoy the Turf War League to its fullest!
