With Kinnikuman, also called Suguru, now back on his home planet to fulfill his duties as the newly crowned king, he appointed his friend Terryman as his representative on Earth.
Although the initial moments of the episode centered on highlighting key storylines from the manga, a significant development was the signing of a peace treaty among three factions of the Chojin race to prevent further conflicts.
