Jake promised to join the tournament with Spike, but went under Specter's control once again and became a boss. Jake fights Spike three times in different styles, and Specter does the same.
At the end of the tournament, the Pipotrons steal the trophy and discover the disk. The Pipotrons give it to a super computer virus called Grid Core, who plans to conquer the world. After obtaining the disk, it decided that the regular three Pipotrons were useless and left them on their own. The villain introduces a new Virus-Tech Tournament, where the characters are fighting for their very lives while getting closer to Grid Core.

When you reach Grid Core and defeat him, the virtual world turns back to normal.
