In this tournament, all the orphans who survived and became Bronze Saints must fight to win the most powerful Cloth: The Sagittarius Gold Cloth. If Seiya goes to compete there and wins, Saori would start a search to find Seiyas sister. The tournament is interrupted by the revengeful Phoenix Bronze Saint, Ikki, who wishes to eliminate track from the people who forced him to undergo his training. When they remain victorious, the Bronze Saints learn that Saori is Athenas reincarnation and that the Pope once tried to kill her as a baby. The Sagittarius Gold Saint Aiolos saved Saori but was killed shortly afterwards and gave Saori to her adopted grandfather, Mitsumasa Kido. Deciding to join forces with Saori, the Bronze Saints go to the Sanctuary to defeat the Pope, but upon their arrival, Saori is severely wounded by a gold arrow from a Silver Saint. Believing the Pope may be able to heal her, the Bronze Saints go to find him. To do so, they have to go through 12 temples, each one guarded by one Gold Saint (the most powerful Saints of Athena). Following several battles, Seiya gets to the Popes temple and learns that he is the Gold Saint Gemini Saga, who in his madness killed the real Pope to obtain more power. With help from his friends Cosmos, Seiya is able to knock out Saga and use the shield from Athenas statue to heal Saori. Shortly afterwards, Saga, having come to his senses, commits suicide as a self-punishment. Saori goes to his Temple, where Julian offers her to reduce the flooding by absorbing the water inside the Oceans Central Pillar. Following Saori, Seiya, Hyga, Shun and Shiry go to Poseidons underwater Temple and are confronted by his underlings, the Marines. As Seiya, Hyga, and Shiry make their way to Julian, Ikki learns that the mastermind behind this war is Sagas twin, Gemini Kanon, who is manipulating Poseidon. During the final battle, Poseidons spirit awakes within Julian and manages to defeat his opponents. Saved by the Saints from the Pillar, Saori seals Poseidons soul within her amphora.
