There, the two encounter an alien from planet Serpo and a yokai called Turbo Granny, who attack them. Okarun gains powers after being cursed by Turbo Granny, while Momo awakens her psychic abilities. They manage to escape the dangerous situation, but from then on, they frequently encounter and battle supernatural beings.
