Edens Zero is cornered by Edens One and Shiki and the crew are saved at the nick of time by the space pirate Elsie Crimson. After the battle, Elsie boards Edens Zero and talks to Shiki about something Ziggy had asked her to do a long time ago.

With Laguna's help, Shiki and the gang obtain a hint for finding Mother and leave Red Cave towards the Verdant Planet Foresta. Meanwhile, Elsie's pirate gang, cruising through the Aoi Cosmos on the Skull Fairy, are being pursued by Justice of the Cosmic Government's Interstellar Union Army.
