Wella’s popular online videos of the Cardbots attract the attention of Fleta Z, an elegant and philosophical jet Cardbot who presents himself as a "fan" to lure her into a meeting. Fleta Z openly challenges Jun’s authority, arguing that the Metal Breath is a tool of enslavement that violates the "freedom" of the Machinian people. A high-speed aerial battle ensues between Fleta Z and Shadow X, illustrating the vast power gap between the elite Cardbots and the common Hidden Cardbots. Fleta Z’s introduction adds a layer of intellectual and ethical complexity to the series’ central "sealing" mechanic.
