Season 1 • Episode 6
LatestIn the Ring of Blood, Veneno and Noivo find themselves on opposite sides of a clash that goes beyond the fight. While Veneno faces the forced rematch imposed by Hector, Noivo tries to convince him that there is still time to escape this cycle of violence. Ventania, determined to take control of her own destiny, decides to enter and fight too. Perdigueiro finally discovers the whole truth about his father's and Vendaval's deaths, putting Dinho against the wall. With the web of lies crumbling, he finds himself with no way out. Veneno and Noivo confront him about the death of their master while Hector suspects that Dinho is stealing his money and threatens to kill him. Ventania, to defend her stepfather, attacks him, triggering a tragic outcome that will change everyone's destinies forever.
Veneno and Noivo are capoeiristas who grew up as brothers, but a brutal crime separated them. Years later, their paths cross: Veneno lives in the underworld of clandestine fights while Noivo protects Ventania, the daughter of his murdered master, and tries to recover what was lost between him and his friend. In the ring and in life, they'll have to decide how far they're willing to go to settle the past.
