Kosuke Ueki has been given the power to change trash into trees for the battle to decide who would be the next King of the Celesial World. But if Ueki were to attack non-power users with his trees, then he will be punished by losing one of his talents. If all of Ueki's talents are gone, he will vanish.

Mori has decided to help Ueki, but she’s starting to see threats in every direction. When any middle school student could be a gifted, who knows when Ueki will be challenged. Two gifted do cross their paths. One is Seiichiro Sano, a decent type who they met while trying to rescue a small girl from a big fall. Another is Maruo Taira, a less than decent individual who has no problem attacking from behind. With the ability to turn water in his mouth to fire (and a little help from his God Candidate), how will Ueki fair in his first official gifted fight?

Thanks to Seiichiro Sano, Ueki defeats Taira. As Sano leaves, he talks about the Talent of Blank...Afterwards, Ueki and his school's running team practice with another school's running team. However, Ueki is soon lured into a trap by Adachi, who can turn cotton into stakes.

Mori is determined to learn more about this tournament so when the opportunity arrives to gain such information from Mr. K, she leaps at the chance. During their talks they are interrupted by another gifted. Unlike Ueki’s previous opponents, though, this one is different. Li Ho prefers to use his own body to fight rather than his given ability. When Li Ho starts smashing Ueki’s trees with his bare hands, not even the sarcastic talent can help our hero. So what can he do when Li Ho unleashes his most powerful attack: The Count of Monte Cristo?

With another win and another zai under his belt, Ueki is able to relax for a little bit. When traveling by train one day, he meets Junichi Baba a.k.a. B.J., a hip-hop enthusiast who takes an immediate liking to Ueki. So why does he also say his name is Robert Haydn when he discovers that Ueki is also a gifted? Fortunately, B.J.'s ability to turn coins into wind is not enough to stop Ueki. The two part on friendly terms, but when the real Robert Haydn shows up, what will happen to Ueki’s new friend?

Mr. K sacrifices himself to save Ueki from certain death.

Ueki finds out why Mr. K was so interested in him. Ueki also gets a new God Candidate, Yodogawa (AKA Yotchan), who wants him to drop out of the battle. Ueki fights his next opponent, Bolo T, who can turn his forehead into a diamond.

Ueki's next opponent is Onimon (full name - Oniyama Monjirou), who can turn the dirt he kicks into cannon balls. This guy is different from all the other guys, and it's not because he likes to shorten names.

The fight between Ueki and Onimon reaches its conclusion. A week afterwards, Onimon trains Ueki so that Ueki can fight a stronger enemy known as Kuro Kage, one member of Robert Haydn's Ten.

Ueki continues his fight against Kuro Kage, whose sad past is told by Kuro Kage's little brother.

Ueki's fight with Kuro Kage comes to an abrupt end when Kamui Rosso (a.k.a. Shiro Kage) takes out Kuro Kage.Ueki defeats Shiro Kage and is then asked to join Robert's Ten. For some reason, Ueki accepts.

Robert has Ueki peform an entry test for him to pass if Ueki wants to join the Ten.Ueki then picks a fight with one of Robert's Ten, Allegio Yuriano.Mr. K discovers the truth about Ueki and Robert.

A large Heavenly Beast appears during the fight between Ueki and Aleggio.Ueki learns more about his potential powers as a Heavenly Being from the Beast, who befriends Ueki.

Ueki tells the rest of Robert's Ten (except Robert himself) that he defeated Aleggio. As a result, the Ten's Don decides to fight Ueki.Using his power to change his finger ring into a rocket, Don soundly defeats Ueki.In order to get stronger, Tenka has Ueki train in the Awakening Organ so that Ueki can raise his Heavenly-Being rank.

Now a 4-star Heavenly being, Ueki easily defeats Don in their rematch.Word about this gets out to the rest of Robert's Ten, including Marco Mardini and Rinko Jerad, whose sad past is revealed.

Ueki's exhaustion finally catches up with him. So, Tenko places Ueki in a Healing Chamber. Ueki will have to tay in the chamber to heal for 12 hours. While Ueki heals, Tenko and Rinko must fend off the remaining members of Robert's Ten, Oni, Becky Wolf, and Myoujin Tarou.

Ueki battles Myoujin, the last of Robert's Ten. Myoujin uses his two powers to overwhelm Ueki.

Ueki recieves an invitation to a "party" held by Robert Haydn. So, Ueki, Rinko, Inumaru, and Mori all go to an arcade that leads to Robert's underground theme park called Dogura Mansion. There, Ueki fights in the first round against Yun-Pao, one of the new members of Robert's Ten.

Ueki continues his battle with Yun-Pao, still trying to figure out Yun-Pao's limit.Later, in the next fight, Mori finds herself battling on the Cossack Field against Kabara, a member of Robert's 10 and a notorious hunter known in the underworld.

It's Rinko vs. Kabara, and they fight in the...cat field? The objective is to get the opponent to get eaten by a cat, and to do that, they have to turn into a mouse! Slap the cat's nose and they become a mouse! Kabara seems to have the advantage in this one thanks to his ability to fly, but Rinko has a few tricks up her sleeves: some new weapons and a...love of animals?

Ueki battles against Sano on the Rope-Jumping Field. The real reason why Sano joined Robert's Ten is revealed.

Sano joined the ten for a very specific reason: to rescue Inumaru from a devious attack by Karl Paccho. Using a Death Pentagon, an insect that can instantly kill a heavenly being, Karl forced Sano to join or watch his God Candidate die. But Inumaru's sense of justice won't stand for these conditions. He breaks the cardinal rule of this tournament: a God Candidate can only grant powers to one individual. When he gives Mori powers of her own, he is instantly sent to Hell, freeing Sano of the Ten's grasp. Of course this only serves to infuriate Ueki even more. With a challenge made to Karl Paccho, a new fight begins. But Karl has a surprise: his talent is to copy the power of other gifted. With all the power of Robert's Ten at his disposal, Ueki is in for a tough fight.

Ueki continues his fight with Karlpaccho, who has more tricks up his sleeve. An event from Robert Haydn's past is revealed.

After Robert's past is revealed, Ueki begins his battle against Robert.

The battle between Ueki and Robert reaches its climax!

Ueki meets a new enemy named Hanon, who is even more twisted than Robert Haydn ever was.

The second round of the Battle of the Supernatural Powers is coming in three weeks, and the power-users can form 5-man teams. So, Ueki and Mori try to find a fifth member for their team. They meet Hideyoshi Soya, a very tricky power-user, but he's being targeted by his own God Candidate, Zack, to join his team of evil power-users.

Zack and his team of power-users try to coerce Hideoyoshi into joining them by threatening to destroy the Sun House orphanage. But not if Ueki has anything to say about this!

Tenko is grateful to Ueki. He has given him friendship, a purpose and treasured memories. But Tenko has a secret: if he raises Ueki up to nine stars, Tenko will die. Tenko knows that if he tells Ueki this he will refuse to reach the nine-star level. However, Tenko knows that Ueki has to get stronger to face his opponents. Unsure about what to do, Tenko decides to give his life for Ueki's quest to become stronger. After all, it was the first time in a long while that Tenko has felt needed and he appreciates it so much. When Mori finds out about this secret, she rushes off to stop Tenko from raising Ueki's level, but it is too late: Ueki is already inside of the awakening organ and he can't hear Mori from the outside. Will Ueki lose another precious friend in the name of this heavenly tournament?

Ueki and friends are ready to start the team tournament stage. They make way to Heaven where they meet four other teams of gifted whom they are meant to battle. God makes an appearance to tell the teams the rules for this stage of the tournament and with his usual penchant for eccentricities, starts off with a treasure hunting battle by sending the two teams to their destination via a heavenly pachinko method. Ueki's Team is going to be up against the Guruno Team. Right from the start, Ueki is up against Gitar, a music loving guy in a full black suit. Ueki attacks him with everything he has, but Gitar just shakes off the attacks, claiming to be invulnerable. How will Ueki be able to defeat someone he can't even hurt?

With one win, Team Ueki looks optimistic, but a new challenge awaits the group. This time around, Sano and Rinko will have to face a pair of gifted that make use of each other's abilities to defeat opponents. Muunin can turn bad puns into reality when the opponent laughs and Pastello can turn any line drawing into a portal which he uses to tickle the intended victim. Sano and Rinko are competent on their own, but lately they've been getting on each other's nerves. Can Sano look past Rinko's carefulness? Can Rinko look past Sano's carelessness? If they want to win this battle, they will have to find a way to look past each other's flaws and work together as a team.

Ueki talks with Pekol who wishes to be strong just like Ueki. Inspired by Ueki's defeat of Gitar, he decides to quit working with Gurano. When he confronts his teammate about this, though, Pekol is verbally deflated and submits to Gurano's whims. With the ability to turn models into the real thing, Gurano summons a giant robot to combat Ueki. With no robot of his own, Ueki must rely on his own abilities. With a bit of ingenuity, Ueki knocks down the first robot, but Gurano summons another more powerful machine. How can Ueki keep fighting someone who can create an endless supply of powerful opponents?

The Ueki team's next opponent is the Marilyn Carrey team, who defeated Caption's team in less than five minutes!What's more is that Li Ho has challenged Ueki to a fight, and Rihou has significantly grown stronger since their last encounter.

The battle between the Ueki team and Marilyn team begins. Marilyn is so confident that her team will win that she vows to defeat Ueki's team in four minutes!

Ueki's strategy of stalling for time has been found. Revealing their history of growing up on the battlefield, Ueki finally understands just how combat ready these opponents are. Leaving Baron to deal with Ueki, the other Team Marilyn members give chase to the remaining members of Team Ueki. Ueki tries to follow, but Baron doesn't let him. Determined to keep his opponent busy, Baron attacks Ueki with his close combat knife fighting, a specialty of his. It is quickly revealed that Baron's knife is more useful than it appears; Baron's power is to transport himself to wherever his knife is, an ability that leaves little maneuverability for Ueki. When Ueki adjusts his fighting style to combat this ability, Baron reveals his level two ability: to stop himself and his opponent in their tracks if he teleports within one meter of the person. Forced with a close combat battle, can Ueki come up with a usable strategy to grab victory before Baron does?

While Ueki is busy trying to get back to his teammates, Sano, Mori and Hideyoshi face the remaining members of Marilyn Team. Being the only fighter with offensive capabilities, Sano decides it is up to him to protect the others. He seems to be doing fine, but it is a last second rescue by Mori that shows him he can depend on his friends for support. Using their own strategies, they are able to counter Marilyn Teams many traps and even set a few of their own. This ends with Marilyn Team losing Pudding. Faced with dwindling numbers, they choose this moment to reveal Matthew's hidden power: the ability to grow two extra sets of arms, all of which fire rapid fire guns! Sano manages to protect his teammates from the brunt of his attacks, but Marilyn is back and looking to put an end to their resistance. Will Ueki make it in time to help his friends or will they all end up in the care of gentle ghosts like Rinko did?

Sano, Mori and Soya are facing the remaining members of Team Marilyn. Sano is doing his best to protect his friends, leaving Soya with a chance to escape. Soya jumps at the chance, but a moment from the past reminds him that even he can overcome his own cowardice. Distracting Team Marilyn, the three of them escape only to be ensnared once again. Mayilyn tells them how hopeless their situation is, explaining how Ueki won't even be able to save them. However, Ueki lives to do the impossible and manages to come just in time to save Sano from a lethal blow. Proving that his sacred treasures aren't as weak as others think they are, Team Ueki is ready to fight on, but who should interrupt but the Kami-sama himself! He reveals the bearer of the ten point necklaces: Marilyn for Team Marilyn and Mori for Team Ueki. Everyone splits up, but how will Team Ueki fare against the well trained Team Marilyn without the benefit of teamwork?

Ueki is left to face Marilyn who has a strange ability to dodge every single attack Ueki throws at her. After some careful testing, Ueki discovers she can stretch 1 second into 10 seconds, thus being able to attack and move at seemingly rapid speeds. Marilyn is quick to display how advantageous this power truly is on an unfortunate Ueki. Meanwhile, Sano is left to face he-of-the-six-arms, Matthew. No matter what Sano throws at Matthew, it is all shot down. Matthew goes so far as to claim Sano's power to be completely worthless. But Sano thinks otherwise; this power is a special gift from his friend, Inumaru. Wishing he could be stronger to make better use of this gift, he discovers his level 2: the power to turn his iron into a powerful magnet. Matthew's bullets and guns are no more the advantage they were. Unfortunately, he has an ace up the hole of 6 brass batons. With an uncanny close range fighting ability, Matthew relentlessly attacks Sano. How will his newly found level 2 help in this situation?

Marilyn continues her assault on Ueki, leaving him no chance for defense. No matter what Ueki tries in terms of strategy, Marilyn's ability to turn one second into ten seconds is too much of an advantage. But Ueki has been watching her and notices that she, too, has her weaknesses. Noticing her reliance on practiced fighting patterns, Ueki comes up with a plan to counter her moves. When he has his chance to counter, he stops, noticing tears coming from Marilyn's eyes. Ueki realizes that she truly doesn't want to fight and refuses to go on with this battle. This infuriates Marilyn, forcing her to make use of her level 2: the ability to double her attack power. Still, Ueki refuses to fight, prompting childhood memories in Marilyn, memories she would rather forget. Will Marilyn's past reveal a truth about herself she wasn't able to face? Or will she force herself to fight once again and continue her attack on Ueki?

Mori faces Memory all by herself. Still unsure of her power, she tries to bluff for time while waiting for her teammates. Unfortunately, Sano can't hear her cries for help and Ueki just passed out! Left on her own, Mori can only run away from the battle experienced Memory. Mori tries desperately to solve the mystery of her power, trying out every idea that pops in her head. It is only when she is close to defeat does she figure what it is: the power to make anyone a glasses lover!With Memory completely enthralled by Mori's glasses, she has no choice but to do what she says before Mori breaks her beloved glasses and this includes knocking herself out! Team Ueki wins! The team recuperates, even getting a visit from Marilyn. The next day, Team Ueki gets ready to face Team Caption, but before they can show up, Anon stands in their way determined to keep them from their appointed fight. He refuses to let Ueki face weak opponents and decides to take them on himself. Are Ueki and his friends up to the challenge of the all powerful Anon?
