According to the preview synopsis, Fire Force season 3 episode 3 will continue the events from the previous installment and show Shinra Kusakabe and Joker breaking into Fuchu prison, where Captain Akitaru Obi is being held captive. They will look to free Obi, who, as Joker states, is the light that will guide the Empire to its rightful state.
However, Shinra and Joker will have their work cut out for them, as they must confront Captain Leonard Burns — a traitor clad in white robes. Undoubtedly, the episode will show Shinra Kusakabe demanding an explanation from Leonard regarding his alliance with the White Clad members. As evident from the preview images, Leonard Burns will unleash his flames against Shinra.
As a result, Shinra might reveal the new power he awakened during his training with Benimaru Shinmon in Asakusa. Additionally, the episode may feature Joker in action after a long time. Besides Shinra and Joker facing Leonard Burns, Fire Force season 3 episode 3 will focus on Hinawa and his team confronting Gold the Destroyer.
The previous episode hinted at Gold, who had a vial containing an infernal insect. It remains to be seen what kind of powers Gold possesses. In the preview images, Gold's arm displays bright blue flames. Furthermore, Hinawa is shown focused with his gun. Thus, Fire Force season 3 episode 3 will showcase an intriguing battle that will test the resolve of the rest of the 8th company.
At the same time, the episode could focus on Hibana and other side characters who are directly affected by the empire's latest move. Since Hibana and Benimaru's team have cooperated with the 8th, and the Empire has branded the 8th company members as criminals, they find themselves torn between loyalty and friendship.
In any case, Fire Force season 3 episode 3 will feature plenty of action, as evident from the preview images and the synopsis. The episode will begin with Fire Force Company 8's deadly battle against the White Clad and the Empire to rescue Akitaru Obi.
