The city Neo Kyoto, which is based on AR infrastructure, is governed by the King. Neo Kyoto is an unreasonable world where the game defines superiority and inferiority.

One day, Teruto, who is wandering around the city, helps a girl named Sakura, who was being chased by a thug. She introduces Teruto to the Rebuild Battle.

She tells him if he wants to have his wish granted, he must prepare to enter the Rebuild battle. Sakura feels Teruto has the ability to win the card fights and ultimately, challenge the King.

“There is a rumor circulating in Neo Kyoto. Anyone able to defeat the King in Build-Divide shall be granted whatever their heart desires. In order to challenge the King, one must first enter the battle known as Rebuild. There, they will have to complete the ‘Key’. — Everyone Has a Wish They Hope to Have Granted— The young Teruto Kurabe vows to defeat the King so that he can get what he longs for. He, with a little guidance from the mysterious Sakura Banka, dives headfirst into the Rebuild Battle.
