After defeating Alius Academy, Raimon faces a new challenge: the Football Frontier International, a tournament featuring players from across Japan. A team is subsequently selected to represent Japan in the competition, known as Inazuma National. They now have to win the Asia preliminaries to compete in the actual worldwide tournament, facing teams from England, America, Italy and more. Throughout their adventure in the FFI, they also come across angels and devils that they have to defeat, otherwise the Demon King will be revived after its 1000-year sleep. There also seems to be a new villain trying to gain something, Zoolan Rice, who is using soccer as a tool to take over the world; and wanting to create a war. Inazuma National has to go through other struggles such as having an unknown coach known as the 'cursed coach', Axel Blaze having the struggle of staying in Inazuma National as his father wants him to go to Germany to become a doctor, and more.
