Season 0
As the king of Sindria, he has made many enemies, and as a challenge rises before him, Sinbad makes his plan...

Episode 2

After putting up a request on part-timehero.com, it is quickly answered by an eager man named Kasuga Ichiban, who arrives at Sinbad's Main Event Arena of Sindria. Telling him of the challenge of defeating "the man who summons dragons", Ichiban instantly accepts his task. But before that, Sinbad has to teach him about Sindria and his tales...

Episode 3

After acing his essays on Sinbad's adventures, they head to The Dragonlord's fortress (actually his company building), and Ichiban can't wait to defeat the boss. Sinbad offers to take care of the underlings on the lower floors, which makes Ichiban go for a "speedrun", but Sinbad's advice about equipment misses him. Ichiban rushes into the Dragonlord's office, but before he can begin the fight, he gets shot.

Episode 6

Hearing that Ichiban got incarcerated, he goes to the police station and after a familiar looking guy leaves, he talks with Ooishi who isn't happy at first but agrees that it was a misunderstanding. He walks up to Ichiban and greeting him after so long and his new friend, opens the cell and heads out with them.

Episode 7

Ichiban is grateful for having Sinbad pay their meal at McDonalds, which is the least he could do since he accepted his request, and Jack finally confirms his sandwich was NOT poisoned by Chaos. The three have a good time together (save for Sinbad's hamburger having pickles, in contradiction to his preference stated in his 3rd book). Eventually, Ichiban needs to take a leak, and on the bathroom spots the shady figure that was talking with the cop in the station, and remembers Jack's words: Be aware of Chaos lurking in the bathroom", and follows him through the back door.

Sinbad and Jack arrive just as the fight ends, and the man decides to flee from the unfair situation. Moreso, Sinbad advises Ichiban and Jack not to pursue without planning, because that man is the right-hand man of the dragonlord, Seeker, a dynamic and magnificent enemy. Moreover, they'll need to be careful around the city now that they are known, especially with a face like Sinbad's.

Once they leave, a dimes figure silently approaches at a distance to them...

Episode 8

Before heading to their next objective, Ichiban, Jack and Sinbad plan their strategy at the Survive Bar as The Bartender provides them with some assistance. As I was saying... It starts with Chaos.

And then, once Chaos takes roots...

It spreads Chaos!

When Chaos is spread, it leads to Cha- Before Jack can finish explaining the deep relations of Chaos, Sinbad says it's time to leave, Ichiban making sure he worked his 5 minutes at Ichiban Holdings for the day. Suddenly, the ground starts rumbling like someone used an earth skill, and Jack is sure it must be Chaos' Final Rumble... but when they go outside, they realize it's something much, much worse: HEAVY MACHINERY.

Despite all of them against him, the towering mean machine was unmovable. Just then, a hero named Serge appears, and through his extremely long intro, HEAVY MACHINERY was put to sleep and then woke to go take a piss. Ichiban is ecstatic at meeting a silent JRPG hero that could so easily inflict sleep and begs him to go with them, and Sinbad says that he wanted to join the party!

When they head beyond the distraction, a dimes figure comments that with four of them, things are getting real interesting...

Episode 9

After an excellent karaoke performance by Serge, a mechanical roar resonates and The Dragonlord's servants arrive. His right-hand man Seeker will not have them escape again and has brought his lord's left-hand man, Jason, along with a prototype weapon of mass destruction to drive terror into their heart. The mere sight of him makes Ichiban tremble, but Serge's fearless expression invigorates him with confidence to face a fraction of KaibaCorp's full power.

Episode 10

After such a difficult battle, Ichiban & friends rest in a bowling bar (where Sinbad is adept at breaking pins too) when Ichiban witnesses an incredible display of skill, and the person responsible for it introduces himself as Okada Kazuchika "The Rainmaker". Okada has been scouting Ichiban and asks him to join his cause, but Hayashi Hiroshi comments on Okada's choice since he seems "far below The Dragon's level", when Jack calls them CHAOS and lunges at Okada only to be blocked by Heat O'Brien and Bob Utsunomiya. Ichiban is surprised Chaos is actually real and rejects their offer because he hates when party members leave, but Sinbad tells him to be careful since they are as formidable as KaibaCorp, and since he won't join them the easy way, Okada decides it's time to test Ichiban.

Okada gives credit to Ichiban for his potential as leader, and their team escapes. Sinbad tells Ichiban to calm down since pursuing them any further would be pushing their luck, but the remark makes Jack exclaim that they aren't taking Chaos as serious a threat as they are, and runs off to purse Chaos by himself. Ichiban tries to tell him to come back, but it's not use, and hopes he'll be back for the next boss battle...

Episode 11
After he's done with his hourly calls Sinbad informs Ichi that they have a meeting to attend, but Ichiban wonders if they can handle CHAOS and KaibaCorp without Jack.

Arriving at a fancy restaurant, Ichiban tries to order Peking duck before entering a room where Okada and Seeker were waiting for him. Okada talks about the current state of Coolsville and how after the president's assassination and closure of the biggest house of the entertainment district, the riots are intensifying and Coolsville is figuratively and literally in flames. Seeker continues that despite KaibaCorp's "ambitious" goals, the situation is overall detrimental meanwhile their complex relation to the ones pulling the strings, The Shimano Family, worsened since they kidnapped their lead scientist. All three have something against Shimano, but Ichiban remembers him being a big deal before he went to prison and doesn't have any direct business with him. Seeker asks them to sign a deal and join them, but after both reject it, Seeker calls out one of his new boys: Jack himself arrives pissed off at Chaos for refusing peace and brings his entire squad.

Sinbad signals Ichiban from the door, and Okada also follows, managing to escape the ambush. Sinbad knew KC wasn't trustworthy, but he's surprised that their very Jack was the leader of a legendary mercenary group and now works for The Dragonlord.

Okada again asks Ichiban to join CHAOS, but Ichiban instead asks him to join his party this time. Okada's gaze is lost for just a moment before Hayashi Hiroshi reminds him of his duty with CHAOS, and they leave. Before they get to leave, Hayashi stops him and makes sure he'll never get to join them.

Later that night lead his own team in TFR's main event, and somehow, a bunch of jobbers managed to defeat a group of nigh-undefeated chads.

Episode 12

Ichiban and his friends manage to escape the wrath of Evil Itself thanks to the opportune appearance of a detective who manages to handcuff him from behind. Back at Survive Bar, Ichiban and Serge await until Sinbad returns who left to visit Sindria, and once together decide to head to KaibaCorp HQ to end everything once and for all.

With all his equipment ready, the three arrive at KaibaCorp's entrance with only little trouble, only to notice the area had been taken over by CHAOS. Okada, Heat and Bob challenge Ichiban, while Hayashi is busy running away from the police (...seriously, Date?), and Ichiban faces off against CHAOS once again. However, they are too fierce this time.

Okada recognizes Ichiban's formidableness, and he likewise praises him, but by fighting in front of KC, Okada's plan is realized when they attract their attention and Jack appears with his squad to block the entrance. Okada is prepared this time, and joins Ichiban's party now that their goal are aligned and he has tested Ichiban enough.

Before he challenges Jack, Okada holds their position so Ichiban can complete all the substories.

Episode 13

After losing a bunch at Dragon Kart, Ichiban returns to the entrance to KC HQ where Jack's team continues to stand guard until they make their move. Now that Ichiban's back and the teams are balanced, the party makes their move, and Jack reveals his squad members: Depp, Bathhouse Owner and Hopper. The party is easily wiped out by such legendary mercenaries, and Jack is left but no choice but reveal why he left Ichiban; he's not only sided himself with Chaos, but with a mass murderer who enacted a death game and led the world to ruin along with anyone who rejected his lead. These memories within him are what are telling him he must stop Chaos, no, KILL Chaos. Neither Sinbad nor Ichiban have heard of anything like it, and the only thinkg Okada can muster is that... he got it all wrong, his group is CHAOS, not Chaos. Upon learning of such revelations, he apologizes to Ichiban for the misunderstanding, and him and his squad leave.

Episode 14
Remembering to equip his substory-obtained armor, Ichiban's group charges on into KaibaCorp HQ. Seeker warns them that he was lucky to escape alive the first time, but Ichiban then notices the place looks exactly the same, which Seeker admits is because their chief engineer is gone, but they still managed to produce enough models to take over the world. Jason ambushes the party with two brand new Robo-Kiryu models, but before the situation turns hopeless, Jack make his return; while he was gone, he came to understand what Chaos' nature truly was, something that destroys friendships, and because of that they need to take down Chaos together... even Okada too.

As Ichiban has something to settle with the Dragonlord, his party takes on the threat while he stays in the backguard in a support role. After (half of) the group beats their asses, Ichiban finds the key to the main office, but they feel the entire rest of the production line coming for them. Before they have a chance to stop them, Okada's CHAOS' allies show up to back him up, and Evil Itself admits that even if he may not be as powerful as Kiryu, Ichiban really can be a Dragon too after all. However, the robot army arrives and still far outnumbers them... but the person who has witnessed Ichiban's adventure from the start arrives: The Bartender, who brings along three mercenaries who were having a drink at his bar: Depp, Hopper and Bathhouse Owner. With so many people helping them, the party ventures further into the Dragonlord's lair.

What they find, instead, is an empty office. Sinbad moves away from the party and congratulates Ichiban, because the Dragonlord has been slain... many weeks ago, in fact, all thanks to Ichiban drawing his attention, as Sinbad infiltrated while they were disposing of his body and headcranked his neck. Sinbad became CEO of KaibaCorp which is now part of Sindria Trading Company, and Ichiban getting thrown into a dumpster instead of a hospital was also all arranged by him. But why would someone do that to the very knight he hired, asked Ichiban, and the answer is... he's not even really sure himself. Kasuga can't take the betrayal trope anymore, and even if Sinbad tells him to control his emotions, he can't take someone betraying his quest like that, so Sinbad arranges a deal: defeat him and he'll get his quest reward, lose and... he'll see.

But a hero never stops fighting, even if he has to overcome the unexpected. So even if he's not good enough to defeat the legendary ruler of the seven seas, he can give his all in one last attack in his final turn, leaving both on their knees. Suddenly an opportunistic old man enters and shoots at one of them, but Serge takes the blow as he says "I've been waiting for this" and Sinbad tries to congratulate him for doing as they planned, but another blast was more than he expected and blows him away. This man, Tengan Kazuo, was the reason Sinbad put on such a show on the first place and attacked Ichiban to lure out; this man was the person pushing KaibaCorp as its real chairman towards the path of world domination, his goal to make KaibaCorp so abominable to create the greatest despair, which would birth the greatest hope.

However, what he hadn't realized is that he lost the moment Serge drew him out from the shadows and made him visible on-screen; Sinbad's plan B activates and Sakakura Juzo lands over the chairman while on top of 20 or so piles of ladders. Sinbad thanks him for accomplishing the favor he owed him, and Juzo leaves thanking Sinbad instead for welcoming Yu into their country now that Chuck's closed. Ichiban is still confused, but now that its all over Jack and the rest go give the Karaoke machine a rematch, leaving Ichiban behind as he keeps asking questions...

Sinbad approaches Jonesy backstage to wish him a good match. Not recognizing him, Sinbad explains him who he is and offers him a deal to pitch in a word to management of whoever wins, but Jonesy listens to ASMR meanwhile and falls asleep on the spot.
