Hello there Tsuguo "Ushii" Ushiyama fans.

Brave Musume GaoGaiGirls

As I have previously discussed, this is a webcomic released intermittently by Hobby Japan from June 2019 through July 2023, with a total of 31 parts.

number.01: The Braves of GGG are lost in the Trinary Star System, however Bionet have developed a Zonder Virus to attack cyberspace so to counter them data of the Braves has been used to create Virtual Mechanoids, the GaoGaiGirls. The lead is Shishioh Rukio, saved from death as an electric fusion, however her laziness annoys her partner Galeo.

number.02: It started a month ago, when Rukio saw a mysterious net broadcast, and was suddenly dragged naked into cyberspace by what seemed to be a Zonder Robo.

number.03: Rukio ran while not understanding what was happening, then came across a naked boy, who tried to get her to run, but she became distracted from the Zonder by the nudity.

number.04: Rukio awakens, and the boy flies to her, apologising she got caught up in this, but offering her a way to fight back. As she aggressively shakes her, he calls for LinerGao(M0.95)

number.05: Rukio is now transformed into the Virtual King of Braves, derived from GaoGaiGar. The boy used a lot of power to affect the change, become Galeo, and has her use Broken Magnum to defeat the Zonder Virus.

number.06: The Zonder Virus will keep regenerating as long as the Virtual Zonder Core survives, so Galeo has Rukio use Hell and Heaven to extract the Core, however doing so uses up the power of the Virtual GS-Ride, cancelling Final Fusion and leaving Rukio naked.

number.07: Rukio has continued to use the Brave Armour to fight for GGG. A ZOV appears on the servers of Nitto General Hospital, Rukio is sent to fight it.

number.08: Rukio is struggling against the giant, captured in a claw, so Galeo calls for backup, Rukio's predecessor Virtual Mechanoid. The arrival crashlands, freeing Rukio, but is then herself crushed by the roller.

number.09: Rukio pulls the newcomer free, and she introduces herself as Homura Azusa, the crash is due to her inherited traits from EnRyu. She claims to be more a support and and tank role, so Rukio should engage head on.

number.10: The other backup appears suddenly with a sword slash, having held back to gather intel, she is Shizuku Kanae, Azusa's twin sister. Rukio is very put off by the talk of the sister docking.

number.11: With time running out, Rukio has Azusa and Kanae create an opening for her to recover the Core.

number.12: The three GaoGaiGirls meet up to discuss their victory, unaware of a mysterious cloaked figure spying on them, confining Rukio, as the GaoGaiGar-type, as the biggest obstacle, before being embarrassingly exposed by the wind.

number.13: Rukio has met with National Police Agency Planning Division Director, Inugama Saori, currently on loan to GGG. Rukio wants to quit being GaoGaiGar, in response Inugami shows her candid pictures of her she's recovered, and gushes over her, begging her to stay. Also Ushiyama Tsuguo appears to be working there.

number.14: Rukio's attempts to quit are hampered further when Azusa (as a maid) and Kanae (as a carrot), also working at the restaurant, overhear and are upset, both because of the betrayal and because Rukio was the first person found compatible with Shishioh Gai's data, and they hug her and beg her to stay, Inugami takes advantage of the opportunity for more photos.

number.15: Inugami gets a call from Hirata, reporting a new ZOV threatening to takeover all of G-Island City. Inugami orders the GaoGaiGirls to deploy, Rukio begging to at least be able to get class credit for this.

number.16: Narration on the GaoGaiGirls and their duties, Rukio is annoyed at being forced to deploy in a swimsuit.

number.17: The GaoGaiGirls arrive and witness the ZOV flying, making the sisters unable to do much, as Azusa's attacks are too close range and Kanae is a meles combatant, leaving Rukio stuck.

number.18: Rukio charges after the ZOV using Ul-Tech Engines to pursue, but suddenly a giant robot hand appears and punches her.

number.19: Rukio looks up to see the cloaked figure descending from the robot hand and gloating, only for Rukio to freak out because her foe isn't wearing underwear, trying to preserve the girl's modesty.

number.20: With no sign of the ZOV being stopped, Hirata requests permission to unlock Galeo's power, but Inugami needs to delete confidential files first.

number.21: The robot hand fires anti-mason cannons, the girl laughing about her power over the GaoGaiGirls, gloating her barrier makes her invincible.

number.22: JJ2, the girl, laughs about her victory. Rukio wants to give up, but isn't prepared to let them bring devastation, but wonders if rather than fighting, she can negotiate friendship with JJ2.

number.23: Azusa and Kanae try to buy time while Rukio talks to the Bionet agent, Rukio explains her struggles with the job, JJ2 implies she could give her an in with Bionet. At last though, the 4th hero appears.

number.24: Inugami appears, with power derived from Volfogg. She fires a Melting Siren to disrupt JJ2's clothes, leaving her open to attack by the sisters, though Inugami is a little too ecstatic at the opportunity she's been given.

number.25: Rukio uses the opportunity to finally defeat the ZOV, saving G Island City from becoming a Zonder. JJ2 acknowledges her loss, but promises to have revenge, though Rukio wants to be friends and tries to warn about Inugami.

number.26: In a meta chapter about the manga resuming, a her heroine, Kurogane Hiro, introduces herself.

number.27: Rukio explains to Hiro about JJ2 and her hope they could be friends. Hiro is annoyed at unnecessarily raising flags, but agrees to help Rukio, taking on Goldion Hammer form to be used by Rukio.

number.28: Inugami lectures the girls on how the specialised ID Armour for cyberspace use was developed to oppose Bionets ZOV use. The first developed were the J-Jewel based JJ2 and Hiro, who were meant to work in tandem in imitating the Silverion Hammer. Replicating G-Stone technology was harder, and by the time Rukio's VID and Galeo were finished, JJ2's systems were overtaken by Bionet. The girls are wondering what to do about JJ2, but it turns out she has already been invited to this GGG Data Center.

number.29: JJ2 cannot comprehend the reason for inviting her, but has initiated a ZOV infection, triggering a firewall trapping everyone in that data space. The GaoGaiGirls charge, but are overwhelmed easily.

number.30: JJ2 tells Rukio not to throw her life away, but Rukio refusing to give up, fulfilling her mission as a member of GGG, unleashes her power via Hiro's Goldion Hammer, defeating JJ2.

number.31: A few years later, this branch of GGG are still pursuing cyber threats. Intelligence Officer Kanae and support Azusa note electromagnetic waves coming that threaten the network, so Commanders Inugami and Hirata order GaoGaiGirls to deploy, so accompanied by Galeo, Rukio, Hiro and JJ2 leap into action.

[king-of-better]

FINALplus New Chapter: The Boy's Resolve.

A new additional chapter added to FINALplus, that serves to promote GaoGaiGar Vs Betterman.

1: 2009: Mamoru again looks at the plaque on the GGG Monument, "With the Oath Sworn in Courage", and finds Kaidou already there, looking at the plaque. He informs his friend he's about to head to the Marine Refuge Base, asking Kaidou to come as well. Both have badges for "Boys and Girls GGG", Hana, Reiko, Ushi Nd Sunou are also members, and are already headed there.

It's been two years since the battle in the Trinary Star System, and one since the monument was erected. GGG Marine Base is in Enoshima, and can be reached by high-speed rail. There's rumours the exile order for GGG might be reversed, although if it's done it will be in the assumption they are dead. Kaidou's belief J and Tomoro are alive makes Mamoru feel like he had lost faith.

2

Aboard the Orbit Base, Acting Chief Yang Long-Li communicates with UN Secretary-General Rose Approval. Yaginuma was removed from the position of Chief for his role in the rebellion 2 years ago, while Yang, who had assisted the plan behind the scenes while acting officially to stop it, had accepted the position until a suitable candidate could be found, while also trying to fulfil Taiga's will and prevent the Space Energy Development Plan from coming to fruition, understanding the risks of using THE POWER. However he has now decided to inform Rose Approval of his support, as he tells Chief Scientist Takanohashi Ryousuke, Yang had managed to successfully lobby for the rest of GGG who remained to keep their positions, aside from Yaginuma. There reason for changing their minds are not due to the desire for power for reconstruction, but because they believe THE POWER is needed to save the Braves. It was only after Mamoru and Kaidou returned that they had learned Galeoria Comet transported through time as well as space, the Trinary Star System existed in a universe destroyed 15 Billion years ago. Yang is prepared for the consequences from Taiga if they meet again.

3

Akamatsu Shigeru, who certainly carries the spirit of the Shishioh Line, is annoyed that part-timers Sai Hinoki and Aono Keita haven't turned up yet. Aside from his role as President of Akamatsu Industries, he now also serves as Director of GGG Marine Base, in this role he oversees the kids right now.

Today Kakuseijin No. Z is due for a test run, Keita and Hinoki are meant to be doing it, but with their absence Ushi tries to volunteer himself, Kaidou reminds him they all took Dual Kind compatibility tests and didn't match. Ushi wishes he could pilot GGG's first manned robot. All 4 Ushiyama Brothers have joined GGG or it's affiliates. Akamatsu is annoyed by Keita and Hinoki idling.

4

Earlier, Keita and Hinoki met for a date before they would be heading off for the test. Hinoki is attending G-Island University.

While they enjoy their date, Hinoki suddenly sees what seems to be her brother, Mario, though she now understands that Lamia, who looks like Mario, is not him. They haven't seen Lamia in 3 years, though he spent a lot of that under the surface recuperating. When she tells Keita, they decide to try and follow him, to work out what it happening.

They try to contact Akamatsu, but neither of their GGG Smartphones will connect, as though Yokohama itself has been blacked out.

5

The Orbit Base receives a report of a giant robot appearing in Yokohama. Yamajii has joined GGG as Intelligence Operator, and Ritchan has become Research Operator. Yamajii detects a Fake GS-Ride from the robot, Ritchan clarifies there are 3 reactions. Yang as Takanohashi are concerned at the appearance of a new Gigantesque, especially with such a power yield, as are Mobile Operator Hatsuno Ayame and Maintenance Operator Ushiyama Tsuguo, but they argue over exactly the power difference.

Before Orbit Base can check on the maintenance progress on the Mobile Unit, Akamatsu announces he has already Mirror Catapulted GetsuRyu, NichiRyu, ShoRyu and Porc-Auto, completing maintenance ahead of schedule, having decided to work on them in the absence of the test pilots. Yang starts wondering if Akamatsu has the potential to be director.

6

The gold NichiRyu crash lands, her silver sister, GetsuRyu, tries to help her up but they just argue. Their younger brother, sky-blue ShoRyu, is actually GBR-5, but his development was frozen for a long time to prioritise the Goldion Hammer, so his AI is still young. Big Porc-Auto, while smaller, takes command. Porc-Auto uses San Mittai with GunEagle and GunShepherd to form Big Porc-Auto

The Bionet Robot is designated Dernier Gigantesque, their aim was for it to reach central Yokohama before GGG could react, but Akamatsu acting on his own prevented that. The sisters start competing, although this is where their SympaRates start rising. Big Porc-Auto uses 4000 Magnum, which triggers a trap, ShoRyu doesn't warn in time.

7

The Jamming is disabled so Dernier can focus on immobilising the Braves, so GGG Marine Refuge Base can see what is happening via ShoRyu. Mamoru takes note of Kakuseijin No. Z, Kaidou confirms he feels the same.

Kaidou boards Cereb Head, and Mamoru Womb Head, Akamatsu is in the middle of telling them there's no point when they suddenly manage to activate it, as though No. Z had spoken to them, though they only emit Dual Impulses in Purification Mode.

No. Z is readied for launch from the Mirror Catapult, Hana telling them to come back safely.

8

Dernier has immobilised the land bound Braves, only ShoRyu continues to dodge, eventually luring to a spot where he can immobilise it, keeping it to a baseball field, but is then brought down.

Suddenly Kakuseijin No. Z, in Accept Mode, flies straight through Dernier's weapon.

As they plan to prevent further damage, Kaidou grimly notes his and J's failure to concern themselves with collateral damage early on. They analyse the structure, as Tsuguo reports that with the EM wave weaponry disabled it has turned the Fake GS-Ride powering those features towards boosting damage.

9

No. Z struggles against Dernier but they suddenly receive advice from Keita and Hinoki, who have followed Dernier to the stadium. With Analysis complete, they switch to Active Mode, dubbed ZetGo. Yang has a certain admiration for Akamatsu's development of a NeuroMechanoid resembling GaiGar and GaoFar.

Kaidou initiates the Break Synthesise, readying the attack, ZetGo then rushes and unleashes a Synapse Attack to Dernier, destroying the robot via the Fake GS-Ride. Keita moves to shield Hinoki from debris, but the Braves arrive and destroy it first. Hinoki sees one piece destroyed on its own, the work of Betterman Nebula. Akamatsu now has new plans for advancement of Kakuseijin past No. Z.

Mamoru makes the decision that they will find a way to bring the Braves back

A unanimous vote sees the Space Energy Development Plan, Project Z, approved, ratified by Rose Approval.

Number.07: Purgatory -RENGOKU-

1

Yamatsumi docks with Orbit Base, and discharges 4 people who are returning there after a long time. Acting GGG Green Chief Shishioh Gai welcomes them back, but, remembering their actions as Conqueror Acolytes, the 4, Hyuma Geki, Entoji Kosuke, Ushiyama Kazuo and Nakai Akiko are all depressed over their actions. Hyuma has to be scolded by Stallion White over how to properly address Gai, as a way to try and lighten their spirits. It's been a month since the 4 were purified from Zero Cores by Gai and Mamoru. They note how the 6 of them constitute the current whole of GGG Green. Kazuo finds it weird to think of his brother's serving in GGG Blue, something his maintenance junior Akiko agrees with, all of their colleagues who hadn't gone to the Trinary Star System are now in GGG Blue. A group arrive to greet them, first Tsuguo and Sueo have their first in person meeting with Kazuo, who now feels like Tsuguo has surpassed him, married with a child while his relationship with Akiko is barely started. Kazuo muses over Mitsuo, his brothers now know thanks to Keita he is working with Chandi. Entoji and Inubozaki have a polite reunion, while Urchin enthusiastically greets his old comrade Hyuma. Mamoru and Ikumi are the last to come meet the returnees. Mamoru reminds Hyuma of the words he was reminded to say when he got back, finally breaking them all out of their doubts. Stallion privately promises his sister he will make sure she is supported too. 

Gai’s public appearance as GaoFighGar after Conqueror King King J-Der appeared revealed his return to the public, and the UN had revealed all they knew to the public about the Conqueror Acolytes. Thanks to Hinoki's determine Triple Zero essentially acts as a drug, the public understands the remaining GGG Green are not themselves, sparing Gai much heartache. Major areas of Zero Robo emergence have been evacuated rapidly, currently Zero Robos occupy 20% of the land, attempts to oppose Conqueror King King J-Der, Conqueror GenRyuJin and Conqueror GouRyuJin have all failed. At present, it seems in 4 months Zero Robos will control all land.

2

Lamia emerges from his cocoon in a Sepulchrum, Rakan has already recovered, but it has to be pointed out the only reason any of them survived it because all were able to work together to get then out. Lamia thinks they need Deus.

2 days after the recovered GGG Green members resumed duties, having been assigned to the Second Order Room, they are ready to participate in the counteroffensive against the Conqueror Acolytes, Operation Daybreak. GGG Blue and GGG Green are the key to the operation, receiving support from GGG America and GGG China. The operation will be overseen by the Main Order Room, commanded by Akamatsu, Urchin and Yang, with operators Yamajii, Tamara, Tsuguo, Hana and Alouette, and Second Order Room is staffed by Nozaki, Inubozaki, Hirata, Stallion and the returning 4. GaoGaiGo, GaoFighGar, Kakuseijin V2 and the GGG Blue’s Brave Robo Corps are being mobilised outside St. Petersburg, supplemented by GGG America and GGG Russia’s Intelligence Robos, and other countries GS-Ride equipped machines. The key to the operation though is GGG Green’s newly reinstated member Mic Sounder XIII, atop Stadio 7 with a newly tuned Disc X, prepared by Yang to the best of his abilities, to counteract the terraforming occuring in Zero Robo territory. Despite the trauma from his own actions, Mic has been encouraged to fight his guilt, rather than simply delete it. Keita has finally signed on with GGG Blue at Akamatsu's insistence, being persuaded to fight until there's peace and then run his modest business. The Zero Robos approach the assembled braves, and Mic uses Disc X, Operation Daybreak commenced. 

2 (cont)

The Solitary Wave is destroying the terraformed earth, and the assembled Brave Robos defend him from Zero Robos, Tamara reports an effective range of 230% the predicted area, Akamatsu cheering his deadbeat father’s creation.

Yamajii reports two heavy readings of Z0-Similar approaching, and Gai and Mamoru order all units to retreat while they handle the approaching Conqueror GouRyuJin and Conqueror GenRyuJin, Mic has to be pressured to leave. Conqueror GenRyuJin launches Freezing Rifle and Lei Dun, and Conqueror GouRyuJin uses Feng Dao Dan and Melting Rifle, trying to destroy Mic, but are blocked by a double Protect Wall. In response, the brothers ready their ultimate technique. Gai orders Ikumi to get Mic away, as the Maximum Tou Long is fired. 

A gash appears in space and Nebula, Ougu, Turbo, Lume, Ahriman and Pondus emerge, and to Gai’s shock, block the Maximum Tou Long, Turbo creating A compressed oxygen wall, Ahriman enhancing Nebula’s cancelling out vibrations, Lume softening the attack, though the attack is blocked for mere seconds before they are defeated. The opening is made though, and Ougu flies Pondus over the dragons, where he creates a micro black hole, dragging the brothers to a point. Lamia warns Mamoru over the Limpid Channel there is only one shot, giving GaoFighGar the chance to escape. A second Maximum Tou Long destroys the already abandoned shells of Ougu and Pondus, but all their goes are already gone. 

3

The plan had always been to retreat when either Conqueror King King J-Der or Conquer GenRyuJin and Conqueror GouRyuJin showed up, due to Mic’s stubbornness the operation was almost a failure if not for Betterman, but Entoji opines the operation wasn't enough, barely achieving anything, undoing 3 days terraforming when Disc X needs 10 days to manufacture.

The Branch Order Room arrives at the Second Order Room for debriefing, and Yang clarified the operation was successful, they proved Disc X would work, but now need a way to produce Disc X faster, Stallion this explaining their next objective is the recovery of the genius who created it, Shishioh Liger. This promises to be a challenge though, for Liger is assuredly a Zero Core in either Conqueror GenRyuJin or Conqueror GouRyuJin.

4

2 days after Operation Daybreak, GaoFighGar, GaoGaiGo and Mic are still being repaired, and Gai is meant to be resting, but keeps thinking about his comrades. Aside from the Conqueror Acolytes, Zero Cores have appeared in individual Zero Robos among the infinite legions. The Division Fleet had a crew of several hundred when it went to the Trinary Star System, and so far only 30 have been recovered. Zero Cores being mixed in along the Zero Robos appears to be a moveof Taiga to prevent any mass destruction weapon being used on the legions. He has determined Conqueror King King J-Der must have J and Renais inside, and thus GenRyuJin and GoRyuJin probably have Liger, Taiga, Swan, and the person he wants to see the most. He still hasn't been able to have the talk he wanted with Mikoto after the battle as Genesic GaoGaiGar, and he seems to have lost his locket of her in the Trinary Star System.

Mamoru also unable to sleep, is visited by Hana. He tries to make smalltalk to reassure, but notices her timid shanking is wrong as he sees the clock show 26:00.

4 (Cont)

Mamoru calms, and sees Hana’s eyes shake with tears. He finds himself thinking how beautiful she is, she asks what he thinks of Alouette. Mamoru can guess it has to do with Ikumi, Hana had overheard them talking together in the cafeteria earlier.

Ikumi has asked Alouette not to eat with him anymore, she said she would if that was what he wanted, but wanted to hear the reason, and when he tried to say she could work it out, she asserted she didn't know him enough to know, leading him to admit he hasn't told her enough to know either. Hana was shocked to notice a slight quiver to Alouette's voice, and is surprised to hear the two have eaten together before, enough for Ikumi to stop it. So he admitted to her there was another woman in his life he wanted to treasure. Alouette accepted and left, saying she was glad to have fallen in love with him. 

Mamoru and Hana don't know what to do, Ikumi did nothing wrong, but they feel sad for Alouette. Mamoru remembers when Alouette called Yuka to Ikumi's side in Australia, but they still worry for the situation. 26 minutes and 26 seconds have passed as Hana leaves, not revealing the other concern she has for herself.

5

UN Secretary-General Heart Clover is guided through approving the GGG Blue budget by his beautiful secretary Miss Cherry, who offers him her handmade food, admiring his earnest enjoyment. 

GGG’d major auxiliary arms include GGG America Space Centre, GGG China Scientific Aeronautics Division, GGG France Technical Research Institute, and GGG Germany Research Centre, which is now visited by Urchin Prickle via Atmospheric Excursion Ship Tenazuchi, he meets with leading scientist Doktor A. While GGG Blue normally operates in Japanese, which Urchin struggles with, they're English conversation is perfect. While Urchin is still is excellent shape, Doktor A is only ale to move as much as she can thanks to one of her mechanical legs being able to shift into a chair the work of Doctor Leo, all of A’s limbs are artificial now, including magic hands. Doktor A had once been part of the Jupiros program, alongside bother Shishioh Kizuna and Cactus Prickle, both long dead. She reports Research Centre currently will not complete their project before total umbrage, this is true of the other major centres too. The auxiliary arms not being able to keep up to the rate of Leo and Liger has been a regular issue the past decade, even Doktor A, a prosthetics expert who became her own subject, heavily involved in both Cyborg Guy and Renais Kerdif’s mechanical bodies, which had helped the framework of the Brave Robos, cannot match those two. It looks like the risky Plan B will have to be enacted. 

In the Big Order Room, GGG Blue Head Divers Mamoru, Ikumi, Keita and Hinoki and Brave Robos Porc-Auto, Getsuryu, Nichiryu, Shoryu are gathered, as are GGG Green’s acting chief Gai, Mic, Volfogg, and the new improved GoldyDoubleMarg, Goldy’s AI block placed into the remains of DoubleMarg. Volfogg questions the absence of Koryu and Anryu, but Gai tells him to wait for Chief Akamatsu to explain. The crux of the plan, which requires defeating Conqueror GenRyuJin and Conqueror GouRyuJin, is revealed to be Koryu and Anryu, whose bodies are in vehicle mode, but their AI blocks have been left disconnected, only to be reconnected for the battle to come, so they can achieve a miracle Symmetrical Docking with Getsuryu and Nichiryu. The body of TenRyuJin has been left with Triple Zero still infecting it, surrounded by G-Liquid to prevent it spreading. Once the AI are reconnected they will need to achieve Miracle Symmetrical Docking to defeat the Conqueror Acolytes before they become Acolytes again themselves. Naturally, the risk exists that they will fail, and two new Acolytes on the level of their brothers will be born, this Akamatsu entrust Mamoru and Ikumi with boarding the sisters and using their purification powers to slow the spread of Triple Zero. The captains and all 4 sisters agree to the plan knowing the risks, so as Conqueror Acolytes are detected at Chicxulub Crater, the plan is launched into action.

In the Yokohama Sepulchrum, Animus Flowers bloom, for Somniums have taken humans in the brink of death and planted them as seedbeds. For some reason, only humans produce Animus fruits, it is perhaps only for this reason that the Somniums safeguard humanity. Deus has infiltrated the Sepulchrum, Lamia asking what he wants. All of the Somnium, except perhaps Rice, are wary, treating him with a sense of hostility. Deus appears to be a boy of ten in ancient greek stylings, he informs them the time of battle is coming, and informs them if his involving himself in the last battle, claiming responsibility for the safety of Sai Hinoki, the source of Vivele, the Somnium's hope. They ask the oldest of Somniums why he has involved himself, he says he thinks fondly of both them and humans, but also is an observer, only able to change things by prompting others to act, indeed Rakan notes records claim Deus has interfered in many events that might have caused the Somnium's extinction. Deus is unique even among the Somniums, although they are long lived, they will eventually age and die, as Pachira had, yet Deus is still youthful. Deus notes that humanity and the Somnium were capable to handling the threats of the Zonders, Primevals, Planetary Masters and Kankel without his interference, but the Dawn Aura is a major threat, they must weather the time of demise thrice more.

Wadatsumi launches on Gai’s order, and he continues briefing the Head Divers. Akamatsu has promised Keita special bonuses for his work, and he’s likely to earn a good amount this day, as he and Hinoki are deploying in GaoGaiGo. Gai finds Keita hard to talk to, as a legendary hero Keita insists on treating him with respect, and while technically older, refuses polite speech from Gai. Gai spies on a conversation between Mamoru and Hana where he tried to reassure her, touching Nichiryu, then asks a favour is Ikumi in Getsuryu, to reassure Alouette, forcibly connecting her. Ikumi thanks her for her consideration, and she finds herself emotional, they both seek to ensure everyone is rescued. 

The GGG Blue executives monitor things and discuss strategy. Akamatsu has to be reminded that Chicxulub is where ChoRyuJin crashed 65 million years ago after the ZX-06 incident, sent back in time by THE POWER, vestiges of energy have always been there, but not enough they should be usable. 

6

Yucatan is overrun with Zero Robos and is being umbraged. Present are Conqueror GenRyuJin and Conqueror GouRyuJin, at their feet 4 figures. The tall blonde man in the dark jacket has answered the short moustached man with pink hair that their presence their is simple pretense, luring GGG Blue out before they can prepare counterstrategy, the blonde woman understands. Taiga Kotaro, Shishioh Liger and Swan White, all corrupted by Triple Zero, have made their plan. The last member swears to Gai they will be together again soon. Her name is Utsugi Mikoto.

Sakura predicts everything is ending.

Aboard Wadatsumi, Koryu and Anryu boast about their brothers, Getsuryu and Nichiryu are jealous, as they only met their brothers a couple of times. Mamoru listens to the conversation. The planned upon Symmetrical Dockings required SympaRates of 100%, and the Miraculous Symmetrical Docking created by THE POWER required SympaRates of 200%. Getsuryu and Nichiryu normally only hit 100% when motivated to protect Shoryu, and while they had met their sisters before the exile, the current bond is nowhere near strong enough. It could be that this thinking about their brothers is the only way to get there. The younger sisters are launched, and the older sisters have their AI blocks reinstalled, immediately feeling the sensation of Triple Zero. They put all their will into resisting. 

Getsuryu and Nichiryu are Mirror Catapulted, followed by Koryu and Anryu

Shortly before the Dragon Sisters deploy, from Yamatsumi, PhantomGao and Kakuseijin GaiGou deploy, turning from very different forms to two very similar Mechanoids. GaoGar and GaiGo descend on the area directly to where the two Conqueror Acolytes are, witnessing them place 2 Zero Cores each inside their cockpits. Final Fusion if approved, Hana and Alouette slam down their hands for Program Drive, entrusting the safety of the boys they love to their respective pilots, as twin EM Tornados from. The Acolytes launch their powerful attacks, but are intercepted last second by Daikaiten Ma'dan and Daikaiten Ma'rin from Big Volfogg and Big Porc-Auto, knocking them off balance beford they have Maximum Tou Long. Mic had empowers the two using Disc P, but is hit by a Jiao Dan Ji, and lands in the gulf of Mexico, the Intelligence Robos sneak away beige a Dian-Zhuanghou can follow. But the Acolytes have been delayed successfully, as GaoGaiGo and GaoFighGar land to face them. The Conqueror Acolytes are prepared for a tough battle against the Captains, but Keita accidentally lets slip Mamoru isn't there. As Conquror GenRyuJin and Conqueror GouRyuJin try to comprehend, their true opponents are announced. Getsuryu and Koryu land properly, Nichiryu and Anryu both faceplant. Mamoru and Ikumi do not reveal their own presence. The Acolytes attack, and each sister has their thoughts race.

Hana witnesses a shocking rise in the SympaRates, rapidly approaching 200%, this is more surprising to the GGG Green staff, but the existing purpose seems to have allowed them to reach this point faster than their brothers did, and Akamatsu orders Symmetrical Docking.

A dragon shining like the sun, KiRyuJin is born, as a is a dragon like the new moon, ShinRyuJin. Like the Conqueror Acolyte forms of their brothers, these mismatched forms were not considered in the planning stages, only achieved through external influence of THE POWER, and now Triple Zero. Unfortunately, the effect of Triple Zero in them immediately starts affecting Nichiryu via Koryu and Getsuryu via Anryu, but their Super AIs try to resist, even as they experience their sister’s memory of previous corruption. Mamoru starts using the G-Stone to fend off corruption of KiRyuJin, and Ikumi and the J-Jewel do so for ShinRyuJin, the two sisters are wreathed in an orange aura. Conqueror GenRyuJin and Conqueror GouRyuJin are impressed, but intend to see them submit. 

GaiFighGar and GaoGaiGo, supported by Big Volfogg and Big Porc-Auto fight the Zero Robo hordes, while Gai feels a resolute certainty that if the battle drags out, the greatest foe will come, and only he will stand a chance of facing him. Hinoki sends Tamara analysis data, so 4 Zero Cores among the Zero Robos are identified. Big Volfogg uses Daikaiten Daima'dan to give Big Porc-Auto a chance to rescue his partner, but even as he grabs the Zero Core the French intelligence unit knows Renais won’t be there.

GaoGaiGo and GaoFighGar have also recovered Zero Cores, and the last is recovered by cooperation of Shoryu and Mic. A dark shadow appears in the sky, Conqueror Carrier J-Ark, and two voices emerge, calling out Porc-Auto and Gai, and in a few moments the fray has properly been joined by the Conqueror King King J-Der.

7 (cont)

Conqueror King King J-Der is titanic compared to the opponents it has landed in front of. When GaoFighGar moves to defend GaoGaiGo, the voice of Renais Kerdi Shishioh emerges from within, her presence within King J-Der means that beneath the fiery aura the Mega Mechanoid is probably shining silver. King J-Der is more powerful that GaoFighGar and GaoGaiGo anyway, and now it is empowered by both the resonance of G+J and Triple Zero. While they have met in battle a few times over the months, Gai knows he cannot run from this battle until the Acolytes are stopped, even as Soldato-J declares their rivalry will be today settled. Gai counters with J’s own words that they will settle things when J is himself, Renais reminds J of their mission, and he prepared the Five-Linked Maser Cannons, Anti-meson cannons and ES-Missiles. GaiFighGar is caught by attacks due to needling to defend GaoGaiGo, as Keita hesitated. Goldy tries to get one of the Kings of Braves to use him, but the time taken to dock would use too much time.

Conqueror GenRyuJin uses an Aurora Illusion to confuse the sisters, and Conqueror GouRyuJin unleashes a Melting Hurricane, but ShinRyuJin anticipated this, countering with New Moon and Dark Night Haze, combining the Protect Protector with the Multiple Armed Container, KiRyuJin follows up with Sun and Splendour Bow and Arrows, launched the Broken Breaker to get guard up, and attack the exposed side with the Maser Cannon, the Conqueror Acolytes allow themselves to be impressed. ChoRyuJin and GekiRyuJin were designed to be balanced, and this was largely true even as GenRyuJin and GoRyuJin, but Koryu and Nichiryu are both attack oriented, while Anryu and Getsuryu are both attack oriented, this Mamoru is in attack oriented KiRyuJin, and Ikumi in defence oriented ShinRyuJin. Their passengers have to encourage them to finish things soon. Both sides try and encourage, out of sincere feelings, their siblings to come to their side, but the brothers press the advantage that they know Triple Zero is already affecting their sisters. Mamoru and Ikumi need to let the sisters act on their own, and the sisters as one refuse, knowing both the guilt of their actions the French sisters feel, and the sorrow of facing their comrades the German sisters felt, and insist that their brothers are coming home with them. 

In Orbit Base, Akamatsu is touched by the bond, while Yang warns they must settle things now, as he estimates less than 200 seconds before the Super AI of the sisters are totally corrupted. 

The Conqueror Acolytes use Dian-Zhuanghou and Jiao Dan Ji to fly, doing so in their combined state thanks to Triple Zero enhancement, in response to this enhancement the sisters both call for Shoryu, spotting him, the Conqueror Acolytes ready Freezing Gun and Melting Rifle, and seem to blast their brother apart, but this is an illusion thanks to Utsusemi, the distraction, allowing him time to use Trinity Docking, and ShoKiRyuJin is born. As ShinRyuJin watches her sister fly up, she reflects how they had always planned on this Trinity Docking being born, deciding offence would take priority. Mic decides to lend Stadio 7 to ShinRyuJin, but due to her weight the platform is considerably less mobile for her.

ShoKiRyuJin is not at a total disadvantage, as her brothers are each forced to use an arm for flight, while both her arms are free for attacks, an she can dodge. The brothers create a strategy to blind her, and then grab her, intending to hold her until she two becomes a Conqueror Acolyte, Shoryu too can feel the corruption affecting him. Mamoru encourages ShoKiRyuJin to keep heart.

Mic contemplates using Disc P to empower ShoKiRyuJin, then realises that will also empower Conqueror GouRyuJin and Conqueror GenRyuJin.

ShinRyuJin, slowly rising, is entranced by the crisis. Ikumi tries to work something out, as does Mamoru. A girl's voice suddenly rings out that Betterman is coming. The Socius Road appears alongside Sara’s agonised scream, Lamia, Yewya, Rice, Hiiragi and Gajumaru emerge. All are reluctant to be Deus’ pawn, but as they are there, they must act. Ougu, Lume, Turbo, Pondus, Ahriman and Nebula appear. Rakan uses Sanctus, and Lamia informs Ikumi over Limpid Channel that the Betterman will become the being of shadows limbs, as the Six transformed Somnium are equipped over ShinRyuJin like armour. 

8 (Cont)

Everyone in the Main Order Room is shocked by the proceedings. Akamatsu decides to dub the form Bonderman, to Yang’s exasperation. Alouette is concerned, but Hana encourages her, Alouette reflects on how strong Mikoto was, feeling like if she was backing up Ikumi alone she'd never bear it. 

Lamia tells Ikumi they will use Pondus’ manipulation of gravity to make Bonderman ShinRyuJin reach ShoKiRyuJin, Ikumi agrees with a condition, an explanation on why they consider Shishioh Gai so dangerous, but when Pondus acts he's convicted to focus on the Dawn Aura for now. As the Conqueror Acolytes hold ShoKiRyuJin, Mamoru decides to make his presence known, asking if they really want this after everything they've done to preserve earth and humanity. The brothers realise what Mamoru's presence is in aid of, and shakily decide they must kill him, but that turmoil allows ShoKiRyuJin to be snathced out their hands by the rising Bonderman ShinRyuJin. It takes all combatants a moment to compose themselves. The Ruin Acolytes are now at a disadvantage, as both their sisters are freely mobile, and so descend for ground combat where both their arms are free. The sisters charge, with 100 seconds left.

All GaoFighGar and GaoGaiGo can do in the face of Conqueror King King J-Der’s ongoing barrage is dodge. Gai decides he has to connect to Goldy, Keita shakily promising to buy time. GoldyDoubleMarg readies himself, seeing the new tool, J and Renais refuse to let Gai use it. Keita activates Protect Wall, but then leaves Hinoki in Left Control, while he works in a Break Synthesise. Gai approved the use of the Double Hammer, activating his two virtual space keys, and Alouette follows with a Double Safety Relieve. A J-Quath tries to block the Hammer Connect, but Hinoki pits all her might into defence. The Wall Ring starts to crack, but Keita is finally able to launch a Double Synapse Attack, not at King J-Der, but to repair the Wall Ring.

Yang is impressed by Keita's ingenuity, Akamatsu bragging about him as he might a brother or son. GaoFighGar now holds the Goldion Double Hammer, and immediately has the GS-Rides run as powerful as possible, shining gold. GaoGaiGo is at its limit, Keita near collapse. The J-Quath penetrates, but Big Volfogg and Big Porc-Auto pull GaoGaiGo out of the way, and Gai activates the Goldion Clacker, the balls repeatedly striking the J-Quath until even it is made light. With the Double Hammer the Gravity Shockwave Generating Tool is in the Clacker, so a single hit is not as powerful, but multiple hits in short order can be made. Conquror King King J-Der now engaged close range, and Gai switches to the Goldion Slicer, honing the Gravity Shockwave via the inbuilt Goldion Motor, thin blades slice of King J-Der’s fingertips, then the Anti-meson turrets and ES Missile launchers. Conquror King King J-Der falls back, J admitting he was wrong about where they would settle things. As Hinoki and Keita talk quietly, Gai wonders why J has fleed, even though Conqueror King King J-Der would quickly regenerate it's weaponry and hadn't even used the ultimate technique available to it when J and Renais were both Fusioned into it, the J-Phoenix.

The dragon siblings are now battling within Chicxulub Crater, Conqueror GenRyuJin and Conqueror GouRyuJin against ShoKiRyuJin and Musou ShinRyuJin. Conqueror GenRyuJin fights Musou ShinRyuJin, who uses Forte’s strong arms and Ougu’s saber, Conqueror GouRyuJin takes over, but Turbo counters his windstorm. ShoKiRyuJin fires attacks that Musou ShinRyuJin reflects at the brothersnat an unexpected angle. The brothers are shocked they are fighting this well in these never used configurations,.it is because of their United goal they can do this. The brothers see their sisters have them on the ropes, they cannot wait for the corruption to complete, and they increase the distance from their foes. 

In the Order Rooms, they know what the Brothers are preparing. If the sisters fail to survive the attack is all is lost. 

The Maximum Tou Long is readied, however, the sisters had anticipated this, and make matching movements, and 4 voices yell out Maximum Tou Long. A blue/yellow and a green/red dragon meets a white/gold and a silver/black dragon, the force of the collision enough to shake the bodies of the dragons themselves. Slowly but surely, the brothers start to gain the edge, even then Mamoru and Ikumi assure their allies they're with them. The ground beneath the Acolytes’s feet crumbles, Ahriman channeling Pondus' gravity powers there, causing them to fall. The Somniums are at their limits, Musou ShinRyuJin sees her armour petrify and crumble away, and the Conqueror Acolytes proclaim their victory. Their sisters remind them the battle isn't 4 on 4, but 4 on 5, as the smaller, green dragon Shoryu’s contribution, is able to avoid the Maximum Tou Long clash, the youngest sibling strikes his brothers in one strike, causing them to fall. The sisters cancel their Maximum Tou Longs, and leap upon their brothers, launching a Lime à Ongles und Nagelfeile. ShoKiRyuJin thrusts energy blades into Conqueror GenRyuJin, and ShinRyuJin does the same to Conqueror GouRyuJin, at once 4 sister's arms pull out 4 brother's AI Units. However, the countdown is already at zero, there is no time. Mamoru and Ikumi have already evacuated the shoulders, and apologetically trigger the explosive bolts to forcibly eject all 5 AI Blocks. The smoke clears, the bodies of the Conqueror Acolytes are now wrecks the Triple Zero dissipated, and Nine AI blocks rest in the crate, and near to Ikumi and Mamoru, are 4 cockpit units.

11

While the orange sunset over the Pacific Ocean almost makes it appear as though Triple Zero has taken it, it has in fact been protected. GaoFighGar lands by the bodies of 4 Dragon Gods, and witnesses the 4 intact cockpits, extracted by combined work of Broken Breaker and Protect Protector in a psuedo Hell and Heaven. Gai knows the Zero Cores in these units include both his top priority and GGG’s, before he can work to extract them though, something impossible emerges from the cockpit that had been Conqueror GoRyuJin’s right shoulder. Zonuda. Gai immediately Fusion Outs and leaps down, Mamoru and Ikumi come after, Mamoru as shocked to Zonuda after Shinjuku 10 years ago, as Ikumi is to see a Machine New Species after Australia during his year with Yuka and Bear, aka Armstrong, host to the Arm Primeval. 

Gai demands to know why Mikoto has taken that form, shaped her Zero Core into this form deliberately. She begs Gai not to come closer, over the Limpid Channel, an ability she gained while near death in the Trinary Star System. At her feet is a last resort device Yang had installed to protect classified intel, the same device had been key in the battle on Repli-Earth, but regenerated at Orange Site. Gai asks terrified is Mikotonis planning to die with him, and due to Triple Zero, she is, but she wants him to live still, so she tells him not to come. He steps closer, and holds her. Mamoru begs her to step away from the devicd, but she reveals any of the others could use it, it only hasn't been used to allow the two a moment. 

Lamia mentally contacts the root of evil, and the assembled Somnium are now stood there as well. Despite the dander he poses, they help him this once, and allow the thoughts of everyone in GGG to reach the Zero Cores. The voice of Sakura begs to leave the box closed. Hyuma demands Taiga remember their promise to Momoko, Koichi and Kaasuke, to not repeat what happened to Momoko with Jupiter X ad recalls their vow as ID5. Stallion tells Swan they need to perform together again. Akamatsu tells at his worthless father to come see his granddaughter already. Mikoto can hear her fellows hesitate and can't bear it. Gai holds her, telling her while being together in death would be okay, he wants to be with her in life, reminding her of the charter to live come what may. Her will starts to be shaken, and now there is no one left to trigger the last resort device. Together, Mamoru and Ikumi use their purification rituals to restore the four Zero Cores. For the first time in either months, decades, or 15 billion years, Shishioh Gai and Utsugi Mikoto speak to eachother with words.

12

Cheers ring out in the Main Order Room. Now almost all GGG Green members corruoted by Triple Zero have been saved, and it is hoped that after a shirt recovery Shishioh Liger can work to fix this situation. While everyone else celebrates, Yang ponders on what happened to ChoRyuJin 65 million years ago. Is ChoRyuJin had been pinned under the meteor when it landed, then even with THE POWER he would have been obliterated. Indeed, he must habe broken off and landed in the Pacific, wherehebwould be found on a island that broke off from Yucatan. But is it even possible he could have not bee discovered until 2005, so soon after his disappearance, it seems almost more likely that he was only placed within the stratum after vanishing into the ES Window, he fears they dance in the palm of another. 

In a canoe far off from Yucatan, the Somnium Deus notes twice more.

Conqueror Carrier J-Ark arrives in Japan, having lost satellite surveillance, and enters Mt. Aso. Lurking their are 3 ships that were supposed to be lost in the Trinary Star System, just finished being regenerated from the core, Kushinada. All this time has been worth it for the two Acolytes, Soldato-J and Renais Kerdif Shishioh, as their ultimate weapon is now ready. Conquror Tsukuyoki, Conqueror Hirume and Conqueror Takehaya. J holds one approval key, Renais the other, which will allow them to activate the ultimate tool, Conqueror Goldion Crusher.

Number.06: Bond -ENISI-

Keita stands in front of a pre-owned home on G-Island City, that he has finally signed a loan agreement for. He plans to start his own cheap consumer electronics business Inna warehouse formerly used by a wind power company, and has had the small residence at the back restored. He stumbles on the fresh floors, and finally his message to Hinoki gets through, but then there is a noise and he sees the residential district is on fire.

The Dubai and Hawaii attacks were not diversions, both had a core goal to achieve, but Taiga Kotaro would not bet on two plans. He looks over the city, and tells his companion that it is time, as they are enshrouded in metal fibres and becomes Zero Core.

2

Mamoru and Hinoki in Kakuseijin GaiGou are headed straight for G-Island aboard Mizuha, and are informed at least 10 ZR-07s have been detected. Mamoru promises Hana he’ll defend the city they call home, Hinoki, originally from Kamakura, is also fond of G-Island, and they calm each other by discussing Kitchen Hana’s meals, but Hinoki’s thoughts turn to Kamuy, who she now rejects her attitude towards given Algernon affecting him, and sadly notes an Animus Flower has already sprouted. She has to focus as they drop, she hasn't had live combat for 10 years.

GaiGou leaps from Mizuha, and Mamoru is informed via Space Development Corporation Zero Robos have blocked all routes out of the city, Hinoki speculates their target is Mamoru.

Before GaiGou lands, a Holographic Camouflaged Conqueror Acolyte lands on top of it, identity revealed by using 4000 Magnum and Murasame Sword, as Conqueror Big Volfogg.

Mamoru is still shocked by Big Volfogg attacking him, but Hinoki reminds him of their mission, even as ZR-07s surround them in the water. Mamoru steels himself, it Hinoki get another shock when she sees the ZR-07s base are Blossom type Neuronoids, but based on her observations successor types developed after Mode Warp fell. Mamoru manages to sink one Blossom, then nimbly dodges the remaining three, it seemingly down to the instincts if GaiGou itself. Remembering an occasion where Keita and Sakura had used Kakuseijin No. 1 to save her and Kaede from a UMA, and how that had been down to the instincts of the bottlenose dolphins whose cerebral cortex formed the base of the biological unit, and wonders if it is the same for GaiGou.

In the Ushiyama home Ayame and her child watch the devastation from a distance alongside Ayame’s old friend who had been visiting, Kazamatsuri Sumire. Tsuguo is on Orbit Base. As Ayame is retired from GGG Tsuguo is forbidden from mentioning Gai's return to her. Sumire falls in to her old habit of wishing Gai was around whenever trouble comes.

As they keep fighting Hinoki explains he has absolute trust in the Bio Unit because he knows it personally, his old friend Valnar of the Sea. After the Invisible Burst, G-Stone Cyborg Valnar had been difficult to maintain, and a malfunction caused her body to fail. When the decision was made that GaiGou’s performance would only be improved with a better biological unit, wanting to avoid a repeat of the crash from 7 years ago, and as Valnar could not be maintained they decides to convert her into Kakuseijin GaiGou’s new component. But Mamoru knows Valnar is alive and fighting with them, and this realisation calms Hinoki too.

Now focused, GaiGou detects the hidden Big Volfogg, who sees no point in continuing the disguise.

Keita is desperate to prevent a singular Zero Robo, already destroying much of the area, from destroying his home/warehouse. He’s already missed a meeting, not given notice, and can't reach Hinoki. Hinoki knew nothing of what he had done so far, he planned to take her on a date to show her, as what he wants is to give her a new place to call home, to replace the one she had lost with her family, after all this time time often unable to meet, he dedicated all the time they couldn't meet to advancing so he could buy this home near to her, and he plans to give her the key to the house and the 3-months salary engagement ring on their next date. He is naturally unable to do anything, though, as the Zero Robo demolishes the fruit of his labour.

3

Conqueror Big Volfogg greets Mamoru, making clear how much he knows of GGG’s current status, and wishes he could see Mamoru as he is now, but Mamoru knows he cannot risk it, despite his feelings. Rather than speak aloud, he secretly calls for the GaoMachines and signals Hinoki when to mode change, while trying to persuade Big Volfogg. Mamoru switches control to Hinoki, and GaiGo forms, there is enough distance Conqueror Big Volfogg cannot disrupt the change. Final Fusion is approved, as the EM Tornado forms Big Volfogg Equips Mirror Coating and dives in, preventing LinerGao II from docking, as Ruin GunDober leaps in the way, and forces itself into the opening, forcing Fusion to pause, and now DrillGao II is just weighing GaiGo down. Big Volfogg grabs them and prepares to destroy it. The 4000 Magnum and Murasame Sword both attack Cereb Head, Hinoki's last thought is of Keita.

4

Keita cries at the loss of what he had worked so hard for, but then his thoughts turn to rage, and he starts to chase the Zero Robo, but he freezes when someone, over LC, notes he is as interesting as ever. Keita hasn't heard anyone over Limlid Channel in a long time, but recognises Chandi’s voice, and seconds later he is surprised by what looks like a Kakuseijin model landing in front of him. He recognises the similarity to Kakuseijin No. 1, and even moreso to Kakuseijin No. Z. While he doesn't know this unit, he knows someone must be aboard, and calls to Chandi, as from the lower Cereb Head, the girl emerges, in different clothes and hair, but otherwise exactly as Keita remembers. Chandi explains she was told to give him the doll by Kei, confusing Keita, but he looks up and sees who it must refer to, having emerged from Womb Head, a boy about 10, clean-cut with a flower in his hair, he looks familiar to Keita somehow, even though he knows they haven't met. When Keita tries to question Kei he doesn't answer, they instead comes from a plump, bespectacled man emerging from Cwreb Head, Keita recognises Ushiyama Mitsuo, brother to his best friend. Mitsuo was saved a while ago by Chandi and Kei overseas. He starts explaining Chandi's status as a clone created by BPL, which Keita knows, so he moves on to explain Chandi has essentially raised Kei since he was a baby, as such he has never learnt a human language, given Chandi communicates via thought. As payback for being saved, he has been helping them with some shady dealings. Kei had been the one to say they must steal the Neuronoid and bring it to Keita now.

While he doesn't understand fully, ad to be fair neither does Mitsuo, Keita knows he can use it, and so boards Cereb Head, giving Chandi his thanks. Mitsuo tries to bring up the need for 2 pilots, which Keita knows, but ignores as he seats, and Kei returns to the ground. Mitsuo has to grab Puleto, rolled up, and accidentally left in Cereb Head, as it has been dormant for a long time. To Mitsuo’s shock, Keita starts the Neuronoid up on his own, explaining his brain is special. Seeing the Akamatsu logo on startup, and the unit designation, Kakuseijin V2 launches, crawling after the Zero Robo. On V2 both heads are domed, and the TM System is similar to No. 1.and GaiGou, the solar panel wings are unique, and it is equipped with Glianoid wings at the base of the tail, and Keita charges forward.

5

Mamoru realises Volfogg is aiming to kill Hinoki, and manages to have StealthGao II and LinerGao II to block the attack, StealthGao II knocks Volfogg over, and coming from the other side, LinerGao II forces Conqueror GunDober out. Distressed at Volfogg’s action, Mamoru swears to him he’ll save him. Hinoki has recovered her composure, and they continue Final Fusion, while Mamoru tries to locate the hidden Conqueror Big Volfogg. As soon as GaoGaiGo forms, all the ZR-07s target it. Hinoki defeats one with a Broken Phantom, and another with a Drill Knee, before blocking attacks with a Protect Wall, doing well against the horde. Seeing this, Conqueror Big Volfogg confirms with Entoji, his Zero Core, they must use his plan, and triggers a virus he sneakily implanted in GaoGaiGo.

Yang had fortunately anticipated virus attack, Alouette believing GunDober delivered it, and while Gai would be able to counteract it, they have to leave fighting it to The Second.

In the Second Order Room, base of the Three Doctors, Inubozaki Minoru commences counter hacking against the virus, relishing the chance to clash with Entoji again after a decade, the last time being in the EI-15 incident, but at last he can pay him back.

6

Still in Accept Mode, Kakuseijin V2 catches up to the Zero Robo, attacking with the Scissor Hand, the Zero Robo is destroyed so swiftly Keita’s revenge feels unfulfilled. Suddenly receiving a call, Keita answers to have Akamatsu, already knowing he’s piloting V2, berate him. He finds he can keep talking easily with his old boss despite the years. When Keita mentions Chandi giving him the V2, Akamatsu already knows about Mitsuo's involvement, and basically knew for certain Keita was piloting when they detected it with single pilot delivering Dual Impulses. Keita tries to apologise and give up the Neuronoid, but Akamatsu wants him to help Hinoki.

7

GaoGaiGo, immobilised, is attacked by ZR-07s, but is resisting. The fact the Blossom based ZR-07s haven't used Synapse Attack is also odd. Conqueror Big Volfogg lands atop them, and apologises, wishing Mamoru could live until the last second, and readies Super Clone Death Art. Just before the 3 mirror coated shadows can strike they intercepted by 3 others, Porc-Auto, GunShepherd and GunHawk, each meeting their counterpart. Porc-Auto loses, between his smaller size and the Triple Zero empowering his counterpart, but he is determined to make amends for his unwilling actions towards Mamoru and Hinoki earlier. Conqueror Volfogg tries to calculate the next move, Porc-Auto calls him out for being so reliant on logic, disappointed, the exchange echoes the rivalry and friendship of Inugami Kirio and Eric Fowler, despite the fact their memories were not carried over along with their personalities, and yet Conqueror Volfogg is provoked to eliminate Porc-Auto first, and both Sanmittai. Daikaiten Ma’dan meets Daikaiten Ma’rin, Conqueror Big Volfogg coming out on top, and Big Porc-Auto collapses, and loses power. Inubozaki needs 80 seconds more to eliminate the virus. Conqueror Big Volfogg is about to proceed in attacking GaoGaiGo whe Big Porc-Auto grabs him, but is ignored, as Big Volfogg readied a 4000 Magnum. Hinoki thinks of Lamia always saving her, but thinks he probably won't now, but there's someone else she wants to see more, but before she can think of him, his voice suddenly rings out, as Keita charges in aboard Kakuseijin V2, and with a System Change, changes into V2’s dragonesque Active Mode, and he angrily yells that the Conqueror Acolyte has gotten in the way of his proposal to Hinoki and will pay. In the moment, he doesn't consider the fact his voice is being transmitted across communications, heard by Mamoru, everyone in the Main Order Room, and his girlfriend, whose cheeks flush.

7 (Cont)

Lamia has appeared in Orbit Base’s ICU, knocked out the staff, and found the capsule containing Saginomiya Pauvre Kamuy, taking from the Animus Flower sprouted from him the Forte Seed. Rakan notes that while he can synthesise Forte, it takes time and effort, so acquiring naturally occurring ones has value, and both exit via Socius Road, noting Hope was protected and the Conqueror King awaits.

Citing an old Mecha anime he loved, Keita focuses on dodging the Blossom ZR-07s attacks, initiates a Break Synthesise, as Conqueror Big Volfogg analyses this but determines it’s Synapse Attack will not surpass a Conqueror Acolyte’s regeneration. As if on cue, Kakuseijin V2 fires a liquid that dissolves the Blossoms, but Triple Zero regenerates them in seconds, but the ground beneath them is also being swiftly corroded, and the Zero Robos fall down into the structure of G-Island, as too does Conqueror Big Volfogg, caught by surprise. Hinoki and Mamoru cheer him, Hinoki filled with admiration. Inubozaki has finished his work, only for a duplicate of Entoji’s virus to activate, but Inubozaki, with 10 years on Entoji and support now from friends, has foreseen this, Nozaki has already reached the duplicate viruses and Hirata launches a bulk software deletion. With a final check from Inubozaki, the 3 Doctors declare virus elimination a success.

8

Hinoki starts GaoGaiGo moving, pledging to protect her boyfriend. Mamoru has to caution the lovey-dovey couple that Volgoff is still out there. Conqueror Big Volfogg emerges, and compliments Keita by name, then readies his ultimate technique, recognising this Mamoru instructs Hinoki to use Hell and Heaven. Mamoru is able to ease the load on Hinoki by tuning the Defensive energies, but Hinoki is still not used to this technique, but readies it carefully, supported by Keita via V2. They charge as Conqueror Big Volfogg readies the Daikaiten Daima’dan, with Triple Zero empowering it it can shatter both enemies if it hits, but the two charge, V2 at the last moment using Mirror Shield to reflect the barrage, but only momentarily, but due to Conqueror Big Volfogg spinning, he doesn't notice GaoGaiGo has moved in time, attacking from above, the fists run right into Conquer Big Volfogg’s head, and grabs the AI block, the defeat acknowledged, due to lack of knowledge of V2. The AI extracted, Keita and V2 Break Synthesise, preparing another Mecha anime reference Synapse Attack, however, Mamoru realises the attack is spraying right at the back, where the Zero Core is most likely, Hinoki tries to warn Keita, but all he is thinking of is revenge for the dream he has worked to fulfil, his attack only stopped by the voice of the woman whose dermal matter was placed in his brain, begging him not to kill her daughter's beloved. For the Zero Core is Entoji Kosuke, whose lover was Papillon Noir, twice dead on the war against the 11 Sol Planetary Masters, and Papillon's mother, Laurier Noir on her death to the Sack of Greed, donated her dura matter to save the young Aono Keita. Her continued existence in his mind, able to show him some visions, is the reason Keita alone is able to pilot a Neuronoid solo. Her voice calms Keita, and he stops the Synapse Attack, instead grabbing and extracting the Zero Core from within Conqueror Big Volfogg.

The remains of Conqueror Big Volfogg, drained of Triple Zero, crumble, Mamoru promising him he will be restored.

The Main Order Room erupts in cheers. Tamara reports Yamatsumi is about to reach G-Island, Tsuguo that Wadatsumi is 5 minutes out, Urchin notes it is time for the last Division Ship to head there as well, Yamajii is relieved, while Akamatsu is in tears over Keita and Hinoki finall making progress, feeling almost paternal joy. Yang is however concerned, as Volfogg mentioned he was stalling for time for Taiga Kotaro.

Taiga has reoccupied his old office at the Space Development Corporation, the current president having evacuated, and congratulates the young GGG, but claims victory, the Conqueror King has already awoken.

Keita, crying, collapses in front of Hinoki, explaining his plan, but all he has now is the ring. Hinoki looks over him to the rubble, then takes the box from his hand, taking the ring and putting it in his hand, then sliding her finger into it. She tells him she doesn't need the house, he is her home, and he cries embracing her. In their joy, neither sees Kanayago appear above, deploying the Carpenters, nor that the robots have swiftly restored the warehouse and Aono residence.

The Four Division Ships are alongside each other, Ikumi has returned to Mizuha by his own insistence, and feels wary, but intends to see his Mother, if he can.

The Z0-Similar response remains, and is bigger, as though G-Island housed an army of Zero Robos, yet no Conqueror Acolyte is detected. Yang realises the signals are coming from waters beneath G-Island.

Lamia and Rakan appear while the battle is still ongoing, appearing beneath G-Island, where GGG Bat Tower Base had stood, and now a rapid transit terminal, opened after the Invisible Burst as part of a global network. Lamia holds a Forte, while Rakan has an Ougu, their occupation with their task why Lamia did not appear to help Hinoki. They look, and confirm to themselves the other Conqueror King has awakened. They witness the giant, kneeling to stay within the cavern, for it is at least twice the size of GaoGaiGo, wreathed in a flaming orange aura. This is not Conqueror King Genesic, but another, Conqueror King King J-Der. The consciousness from Conqueror King King J-Der expresses surprise Evoluder Guy was not the first to arrive, it is clear that the greatest warrior among the Conqueror Acolytes is fused into Conqueror King King J-Der. Lamia was made aware of the awakening by Deus. Despite his haughty nature, Rakan understands thanks to facing Conqueror King Genesic that the two Somniums cannot stop it alone. Nonetheless, they consume their Animus Seeds, Betterman Forte and Betterman Ougu leap into action. They move to attack, but the Conquer King does not even move, releasing 4 Acolytes, all taller than Forte, which the becomes two Acolytes, Rakan recognising the Symmetrical Docking. Forte and Ougu ready themselves, but are downed by a single strike each, immediately fibrising, the Somniums recognise these two have too strong a Dawn Aura. Their does dispatched, Conqueror GenRyuJin advises the Conqueror King to act, Conqueror GouRyuJin agrees, all three surge with Triple Zero, and at this point Z0-Similar builds up enough for GGG Blue to detect it.

The aura is so powerful as to turn the sea and ground orange with light. Taiga notes the plan has worked, Conquer Big Volfogg bought enough time for the true objective to be fulfilled, but if any of the 3 feints had succeeded victory would still have been assured. A combined J-Quath and Maximums Tou Long releases vast amounts of Triple Zero into the transit system and radiating to the surface.

The Braves and Division Ships are caught in the radiance, and witness the 3 Conquerors appear. Ikumi forgets himself and calls out to J, Big Porc-Auto calls out to Renais, and Mamoru calls out to the Symmetrical Docked brothers, and GaoFighGar, arriving, demands to know what Soldato-J has done. The Conqueror King declares to Gai and Arma declares the intent to return the universe to nothing, and rejects Gai’s attempt to fight, saying their rivalry has been settled, knocking GaoFighGar to the ground, and forming into Conqueror J-Ark, carrying the Acolytes with him.

Neither GGG Green nor GGG Blue have any strength to pursue, and on Orbit Base they can only watch as the aura appears across the world, ZR-08 through ZR-26 have been identified appearing across the world, 26 more awaiting categorisation. The Carpenters need 7 minutes more to restore the Brave Robos.

Sakura declares earth will perish,all life killed, within the orange light of the comic law. She screams, and declares everything ended.

The world has become hell, 4 figures stand and observe. Mitsuo is pale as he watches emergency bulletins. Kei, child to two paranormally gifted people, shows no emotion, while Chandi seems entertained. The 4th figure declares this is how history went, intelligent life destroyed according to Cosmic Law, but this figure, who seems young in appearance and voice, sees this as a waste, and so has decided to meddle. His name is Deus.

This ends the 2nd chapter

Number.01: Decision -KESSEN-

1

Autumn 2016: Mamoru and Hana visit Ushiyama Tsuguo,his wife Ayame, and their newborn, at their G-Island City home, originally meant for Space Development Corporation staff, but also preferentially offered to GGG members. The couple have been married for 2 years, and Ayame went on leave on month 8 of her pregnancy. Keita, the only one present not part of GGG, asks about the name, Hajime, derived from Kazuo, the eldest Ushiyama sibling, who Tsuguo and Sueo both still hope to save. Mitsuo, the 3rd brother, is travelling throughout the world on graduate fieldwork. Keita mentions the rumours that the Invisible Burst have effected child rearing, though, all research refutes this, Hibiki annoyed he even mentioned it.

The cicadas now chirp out of season, again commonly blamed on the Invisible Burst, Hinoki refuses to dignify Keita's comments on it. Mamoru, Sueo and Hana discuss baby Hajime, the three all turned 20 and joined GGG this year, this gathering was their first real time drinking. While his friend debate who Hajime more resembles, Mamoru contemplates if he'll ever be a father. It's been 10 years since their wedding, and while they've never discussed it, he believes they both consider it real, although since becoming adults they have not take the steps to legally marry, and doubts about pursuing his own happiness during this time of crisis are gone after seeing the couple. He still wonders about the most important question. Can an alien from the Green Planet even have a child with a human woman? His biology has already been studied, he could find out, but isn't sure if he wants to. He now craves the chance to see Gai, as he often does, but specifically for advice on this matter, remembering Gai had similar questions as an Evoluder. Hana snaps him out of his reverie, and he remembers how she has always been hisnanchor. Tsuguo had earlier told Keita he should make things official too, he and Hinoki have been dating for 10 years after all, Keita saying he hoped to next promotion he got. Keita didn't attempt to enter GGG, instead working for a home electronics store. Hinoki's thigh watch reminds her to make an update. Public data terminals, like phone booths, are a common sight now, as the Invisible Burst certainly disrupted EM fields and thus wireless communication, terminals allow the maintenance of the networks from before the Burst. Hinoki connects her GGG phone to get the latest updates, and is immediately contacted by her GGG Research colleague, Tamara Gogol, a Ukrainian Russian, who informs her they're enroute to her, and the other GGG members with her, without explanations. In the sky appears Division X: Mobile Execution Fortress Wadatsumi to collect them.

2

The Invisible Burst of 2010 turned the world upside down, the Gutsy Galaxy Guard, with their Super AI Brave robots and the Carpenters were instrumental in disaster relief and repair. By the end of the year, Rose Approval stepped down as secretary-general after 2 terms and 10 years, GGG was reorganised into the UN Defence Brave Corps, the Gutsy Global Guard, and GGG Marine Refuge Base director Akamatsu Shigeru was appointed as chief. The decision was controversial but both outgoing director Yaginuma, former acting director Yang and chief scientist Takanohasi endorsed him. Akamatsu developed tech that would work in EM fields, and this settled worries.

Hana, Sueo and Hinoki, having changed into uniform, rushed to Wadatsumi's Branch Order Room. Hinoki relieved Tamara as Research Operator, and noted Saginomiya Pauvre Kamuy was acting as Intelligence Operator, chief Operator Yamajii complaining of back pain, although Hinoki wonders why Kamuy, 34 and a veteran of the Primeval War, isn't already in charge. Hana is the current main Mobile Corps Operator while Ayame is on maternity leave, and Sueo takes the position of Maintenance Operator, as while Tsuguo isn't on parental leave, he was drunk when called. Akamatsu Shigeru, son of Liger, nephew of Leo, cousin of Gai, is in command as Chief, his disposition fits the Shishioh name he has discarded. He is supported by Supervisor Yang, and Advisor Urchin Prickle. Due to the communication breakdown, the Main Order Room now has to transfer to the Division Ship to maintain operational oversight. Bionet are targeting Pontianak, home to G-Circulation Base, cornerstone of the Global Wall project. With the operators briefed, Wadatsumi heads off to meet Yamatsumi on site. Where the Gutsy Geoid Guard had a gold emblem, and Gutsy Galaxy Guard a green one, the Gutsy Global Guard has a blue emblem.

3

Mobile Unit Captain Amami Mamoru enters the Diving Chamber and takes in his briefing, while Vice-captain Kaidou Ikumi scolds him for being late. On seeing Bionet is disrupting the Global Wall project, a key stepping stone to being able to relaunch Project Z, Mamoru is annoyed, but Kaiju is quietly furious, at some point both began calling the other by their first name, by the names their human parents chose for them. Mamoru is jealous of Ikumi's height and sharp features.

Big Porc-Auto attempts to use Daikaiten Ma'rin blocking the progress of most of Bionets Imitation Zonders. One further is blocked by Shoryu, who still fails to call Porc-Auto by the name of his current form, only for the young Brave to be downed, the distraction allowing the others to progress. The two are saved by the silver Brave's cape like Protect Protector, which reflects attacks on the Zonders, this is followed by the gold Brave's own cape like Broken Breaker, both capes are made of 6 parts. Big Porc-Auto thanks Getsuryu and Nichiryu, while Shoryu apologises to his older/younger sisters. Due to the Imitation Zonders still having Cores, they can't properly destroy them. The German sisters continue to attack, but are shocked when Bionet for the first time demonstrates their Imitation Zonders can combine. The Zonder Robo prepares a cannon to hit G-Circulation Base, despite the fact they cannot hope to survive, ShoRyu and Big Porc-Auto ready Mirror Coating to stand in it's way. The Global Wall works by 5 equatorial G-Circulation Bases channelling G-Liquid to 6 satellites, with Orbit Base's Protect Shade in the centre, the resultant Protect Wall would stop further EM disruption. At the last second, a Synapse Attack destroys the cannon, and Kakuseijin GaiGo lands. G-Circulation Base is unscathed, and the Captains take over, summoning the GaoMachines. Akamatsu approves Final Fusion, and Hana uses a dual handed Program Drive to initiate. GaoGaiGo forms, just as the Zonder Robo regenerates. Akamatsu gave his own King of Braves a name in kanji, like Kakuseijin before it, GaoGaiGou, though only he knows the difference. Mamoru takes Left Control, and they note they have Seven Cores to recover, Yang believes they can use the same principle as with EI-08 to deal with this. Hinoki receives data from Womb Head on her Leoglass 7+, and determines where to hit to expose all the Cores. Urchin Prickle, who served with Hyuma in the US Army, orders Hana to Emission the Dividing Driver and Kit Number 09, and the two DD Kits are Mirror Catapulted to the battle, combining into the Dividing Driver and equipping to GaoGaiGo, it opens the Zonder and exposes all the Cores. Ikumi readies the Phantom Ring, using Broken Phantom extracts all 7 cores. Mamoru handles Purification, even now Kaidou has never purified a Zonder, seeming to blame them for their situation. The Cores revert, though there is one person acting strangely different.

4

In a certain Kanagawa based electronic store, Keita is trying to sell the Hypersonic-Ion Bio-Programming Dryer, and is greeted by a customer, in actuality Ritchan. She left GGG to care for her aged parents, and now runs Akamatsu Industries parents. Keita hands over a Chika-chan doll she was looking for for a relative, Bottom The World never truly recovered from the rumours and closed after only a few years. Ritchan informs him of rumours that the UN will launch 'that' project soon, he starts calculating on his Neckwatch, hoping to be ready with products that will be usable when the EM field is wiped out. Ritchan wonders if he really is saving for marriage.

5

3 days after Pontianak, Division XI: Intelligence Mirror Raid Warship Yamatsumi heads to Iñola, where apparently Doctor Thanatos has made his HQ. Bionet had seemed to be demolished after the Futsunushi Incident, as a special task force (ID5? Is this Drama CD4) raised their base, and Professor Mothma was killed. Mothma's aid, Doctor Thanatos, took over. Thanatos had been untraceable, until a Bionet commander turned out to be among the Zonder hosts. Those purified from Zonderisation were released from negative impulses after purification, and thus this Bionet member is now cooperating. Urchin notes to Akamatsu the possibility this is a trap, but they have to act on the info anyway, and fast, in hope of rescuing captives and dismantling Bionet. Akamatsu grouses about the Conqueror King, the name given to the aura that had remained visible on Jupiter the last 6 years, blacked for the Invisible Burst. The name has spread across the world, first being spoken by Akamatsu's daughter, Sakura, who learnt it via Limpid Channel, probably from the Somnium Lamia, Mamoru also heard the term from Betterman. He is unsettled the form resembling Genesic GaoGaiGar is called by that moniker, but he has only discussed Lamia's words right Ikumi and Hana. Yang knows that once the Global.Wall is erected, Project Z will be relaunched, a project he has been preparing to continue these 6 years. As Hinoki and Hana report they are approaching, GaiGo and Shoryu are prepared for launch.

6

The Ul-tech engines are cut, and neuromechanoid and glianoid descend upon the island in the republic of Velocenia, where Bionet had once before been based. Porc-Auto has already scouted the area, the sisters are on rescue work in Africa. He has already determined the captives are where the Bionet commander claimed they would be.

Ikumi launches a Synapse Attack on the internment center roof. Finding 20 captives, the two Captives enter purification mode to fight the Bionet Beastmen guarding them. They take them down, and Shoryu brings down a container to evacuate them, Mamoru spots a girl bound and gagged, se yells a warning about the last, camouflaged Beastman, Ikumi defeats it. The girl, taller than Mamoru, dressed in blue offends Mamoru by calling him a kid when she is 15, she also seems very taken with Ikumi. Her name is Alouette, kidnapped from France, and sees getting to meet Ikumi as the silver lining to this experience. Mamoru and Ikumi were both away from earth at the time, 10 years ago, that Alouette was collaborating with GGG, and so do not know her. Porc-Auto analyses the situation with GunHawk and GunShepherd, but even caught by surprise Bionet should have had a bigger response, he concludes something must have happened, but before he can wonder what, senses something he cannot identify, which then vanishes.

7

Shoryu evacuated the hostages, but both Mamoru and Ikumi, and Akamatsu and Yang, cannot understand Bionet's actions. The general claimed their goal was not the G-Stone, but simply destruction of G-Circulation Base. Something suddenly appears and tears off GaiGo's left arm, and Mamoru is shocked to see the enemy looks just like the Conqueror King, but Ikumi points out this is an imitation Zonder, not actually Genesic GaoGaiGar, the shape caused by the host being stressed by the aurora. Akamatsu has already launched the Gap Machines, and GaoGaiGo is born. The battle resembles GaoGaiGar's with EI-15, and GaoFighGar's with Repli-GaoGaiGar.

The two captains are united in purpose, and initiate Hell and Heaven, the right hand channelled the J-Jewel, and the Left the G-Stone, and the Zonder Core is pulled from the Robo.

8

Mamoru purifies the core, but something is wrong. The host is giggling madly, nevermind the fact it is Doctor Thanatos himself. He calls out Mamoru as the 26th test subject, and brings out claws to attack, but is stopped by Pextofolex Flavum, from the suddenly appearing Betterman Lamia, who stunned Thanatos, and instead of answering Ikumi asking what he's doing, he simply grabs the madman and leaves, saying he needs him for the coming battle. Porc-Auto, GunHawk, GunShepher and Yamatsumi are closing, but Lamia takes a fruit and eat taking the form of Nebula, and flies straight for the image of the Conquering King, signalling to Mamoru who his opponent will be. And somehow he feels excited.

9

While Bionet faces and end no-one could have expected, at the UN, the Secretary-General, Heart Clover, receives a report that the Global Wall project will commence in 120 hours. Keita's workplace will soon reap a decent profit thanks to foreknowledge that the EM radiation will soon be no concern. Clover assured his secretary, Ms. Cherry, that Project Z will finally restart. And for the woman whose real name is Isogai Sakura, that is excellent news.

GGG.02: Miraculous Legend

1 year ago, Amami Mamoru left for space. 

No one on earth is yet aware of the the coming threat. 

Hatsuno Hana walks Yosef and her 7 puppies, Ushiyama Tsuguo, Mitsuo and Sueo run past, Reiko is exercising with her friends, and Sunou is playing in a family yacht. Six gets loose, the other puppies dragging her to where Six has found a young man, who pets the puppy. Hana recognises the young man as her long missing classmate, Kaidou Ikumi, but a green blast attacks, causing Kaidou to enter Purification mode, Hana isn't too out off by this, but is surprised by the attacker, also in Purification mode, her husband, Amami Mamoru. The two boys from the Trinary Star System clash, their powers causing an explosion, when she recovers, Hana sees both have vanished, and bit of destruction. 

After a refresher on the Brave Warriors, the news reports on Kanayago bringing the Carpenters to repair Paris, Isamu and Ai see the broadcast on TV, Hana spies on them trying to see if Mamoru has returned. At the Space Development Corporation, President Taiga Kotaro and secretary Isogai Sakura discuss the imminent Space Energy Development Plan, which Taiga fears could have serious consequences. 

Kanayago and Tsukuyomi dock at Orbit Base, as Piggy serves oil to the Mobile Unit, Renais informs the sisters they're being put on standby there. Mikoto greets Gai, then burns her hand shaking Renais' metal hand, Renais pretending not to speak Japanese after, but Mikoto admits she forgot Renais is constantly building heat and is forced to wear the cooling coat, telling Gai to forgive her, Renais, overhearing, doesn't betray her feelings on the matter. 

The main leadership look over the actual Q-Parts, mysterious items found across the globe in the last 6 months. The 4 found were sent to CERN, GGG Space Centre in America, China's Space Aeronautical Development Center and the Orbit Base. Dr. Shishioh Liger in America, and Director Yang Long Li in China are instructed to take precautions for Bionet, but Yang feels FuRyu and RaiRyu are sufficient, and Liger thinks they have matters in hand to, and takes a moment to enquire if Renais' GS-Generator is functioning, it she simply decides to mock her father, but the broadcast then cuts, as Liger, Swan White and Stallion White are surprised by Mamoru bursting in, declaring he requires the Q-Part, and convincing Mic Sounders XIII to knock them out so he can get away without protest, saying he needs the Q-Part to save the universe.

Hana is despondent over Mamoru appearing, then disappearing again, when Six gets her attention, the whole litter dragging her to where Yosef has found Kaidou unconscious. She patches him up in her room, and he thanks her, but clams up when she ass why Mamoru hasn't come to her, before admitting he also doesn't know. 

At the Space Aeronautical Development Center, the Q-Gao Machines have been ion coated ready for tests of the Q-Parts energy conversion. While holding his infant child, Yang hopes that the energy from the Q-Parts will make development of Jupiter unnecessary, when Mamoru bursts in an steals that Q-Part too, causing the reactor to go critical, FuRyu and RaiRyu act to protect the personnel. Yang is annoyed they haven't gone after the Q-Parts, but looking back at his wife and child makes him recognise they're right. 

Both attacks are reported to the Orbit Base, the Q-Gao Machines were also stolen, and Mic had to be put on lockdown, but his sensors confirm it was Mamoru. Renais is the only one without the personal attachment to see Mamoru must be up to something, otherwise he could have just asked for the Q-Parts. Papillon is washing Entoji's scalp, presumably she's responsible for his somewhat neater image. 

Q-StealthGao suddenly approaches Orbit Base, Mamoru making contact from inside. Gai tells Mamoru he trusts him, and he seems apologetic, and is allowed to board. Papillon confirms he matches data on Mamoru, but she cannot sense life's breath in him, and runs off, Renais realises she picked something up with Sensing Mind.

1st Night: Darkness -Yami-

A girl strapped into a strange machine, in a sing song voice, calls someone to find her, before her body seizes up, she screams, before saying "Darkness". 

A young man with glasses in a strange black bodysuit awakens on the shore, sitting up he sees a girl with strange coloured hair and similar clothing mounting at him, he then awakens in his room.

Bottom The World is a new underground amusement park, with a mascot named Chika, the boy, Aono Keita, rides past an advertisement, running late he starts watching a robot anime on a device, narrowly avoiding a truck, barely making it to class, where his friend Ushiyama Tsuguo (the 2nd Ushiyama brother) informs him a new girl is joining the class, Keita is shocked that it is the girl from his dream, moreso, he remembers her now as his childhood friend, Sai Hinoki. 

There are over 200 bodies in Bottom The World, some uninjured, others ripped to shreds, 42 survivors. Specialists arrive, to the detectives shock the man has a large backpack mounted device, noting a 40% match to Mode Warp's data, his colleague, in a protective suit, declares this was down to Algernon, and orders an evacuation, though others already sent inside, the man decides to call in Hinoki. 

Keita pushes through the crowd around Hinoki, trying to confirm she remembers him, when she gets a call, then gets permission to leave, picked up by a truck marked as Akamatsu Industries. 

Later, Keita accidentally falls into Bottom The World via a closed subway, he heard it was closed but starts creeping along, he's then grabbed by a Chika animatronic and sent further down into the park. A woman's body, flopping around unnaturally chases him back up, and after getting away he hears singing, and finds the Akamatsu Industries truck, and inside the girl in the machine. 

After assuring the girl he isn't going to hurt her, the service elevator the van is on starts descending, she tells him to leave, saying she'll be fine, he gets caught on the fence, and attacked by a suit of armour, trying to safely make his way down, eventually landing at the feet of a Robo.

As police crowd the entrance of Bottom the World, a figure with hair like Hinoki's, and a black bird on his shoulder, watches.

Hinoki is inside the Robo, turning it to see Keita, she does recognise him but he can't hear her, as she's wondering why a black haze appears, activating the Robo's, called a Neuronoid, Night scope, as detected back on the van. Hinoki reports her co-pilot, Cactus, suddenly left, based on their monitoring of his vital signs the female boss suspects it is Algernon. The male boss is shocked, as the Manipulator Box has the same Ion Shield as Barriers 1-7, and the same protective quality as the Amulet Suit she wears, he must have been infected before boarding Kaliseijin, and Hinoki alone can't pilot it. They also can't lower the Main Tech Carrier further without analysing the fracture. 

Keita runs around, and winds up at another point on Kakuseijin just as Hinoki is informing the man, Akamatsu, or her spotting a classmate. They properly confirm she remembers him, and she then tells him to stay put, closing the Cereb Head around him, her own cockpit is the Womb Head. 

As a Kappa and 3 Knights start approaching, Keita is told he cannot pilot Kakuseijin, but manages to accidentally activate the unusual controls, shockingly creating a working Dual Impulse, Kakuseijin destroys the knights with it's class and grabs the Kappa. Akamatsu asks who Keita is, Keita recognises him but is told to stop asking questions, the Gel is about to hit the limit a Hinoki is told to retreat. 

The park lights up, the woman's body, now with a tongue out the back of the head, attacks and is crushed, and they're attacked by a robot, while Keita marvels at the technology of Kakuseijin, Hinoki runs an analysis, the staff on the Main Tech Carrier confirming it is a robot. 

As the Main Tech Carrier descends, Hinoki gives Keita control, Kakuseijin essentially turning upside down, putting Keita in Cereb Head at the top, and tells him to Break Synthesise. The attack prepares far quicker than it had for Cactus, and using G-Set, it rushes closer, as Hinoki sees they have charged up she has Keita use Synapse Attack, as a right punch to the robot sends a beam all the way through the robot, destroying it, Akamatsu and his colleague shocked at how swiftly Kakuseijin calculated the attack needs. 

Hinoki is explains the mecha to Keita as a Neuronoid, Kakuseijin 1, when the girl on the machine yells out something is coming, as a Chika Robot appears. Unfortunately for Keita, they've hit the limit, they're out of Linker Gel.

The man and his bird watch, the bird saying their hopes are in danger, so he notes they will have to use the Nebula Seed, and he leaps between Kakuseijin and Chika, sensed by the girl, throws away his sunglasses, and consumes a seed, starting to transform into a monstrous form, recognised by Hinoki and the leading woman as Betterman.

[king-of-better]

Number.21 is Golden God of Destruction

Repair work on the Pliers is underway, while Leo and Mikoto discuss the partner robot for GaoGaiGar. Due to the time otherwise needed to develop an AI, 6 months with the brothers and 3 months for Volfogg, and not being safe to wait that long, the AI was based directly on Hyuma, the new unit will be called GoldyMarg. At Gotenyama Science Centre, Dr. Hirata Akiko is demonstrating her gravity control system. It fails, she blames improper conditions, as she distresses later, Polonaise and Primarda turn her into a Zonder. Localised gravity increases  causes chaos in the city, it's tranced back to the centre and the Brothers are dispatched with the Cannon Blue and Cannon Red, which fired together create a quick acting sealant, Gai assists with DrillGao, Volfogg finds the Zonder but is trapped. More minor incidents cause embarrassment for Sakura, Hana and Reiko, before the school is totally affected. Soon, everyone and everything is immobilised. Activated by freak accident, GoldyMarg starts moving, escaping the Metal Locker Room. Able to move despite the gravity, he approaches EI-20, when he resists increased gravity it uses anti-gravity, he finally manages to attack by shooting Leo's observatory which is flung at the Zonder Robo.

The others quickly act to stop it before it can regenerate the gravity manipulator, GoldyMarg forming the Marg Hand, able to safely grip the Goldion Hammer that was embedded in his body, GaoGaiGar drives a nail in with Hammer Hell, then pulls it out with the core using Hammer Heaven, before atomising the Zonder Robo. 

Number.22 is To the Corrupted Sky

At an Air Base open day, a man who enjoyed a simulator is approached by Pizza, the Zonder subsequently hijacks a B-52 Ayame is showing Hana, witnessed by the 4 Ushiyama brothers, Kazuo rushes to GGG, while Tsuguo, Mitsueo and Sueo see him off.

Mamoru sensing the Zonder causes him to abandon Sunou to fish, the lonely kid sees him go. It's on a path to the Bay Tower Base, the brothers act quickly to neutralise the payload dropped on the city. The girls aboard are detected, forcing them to send GaiGar Duel Equip in to rescue them. Pizza gloats to himself that no matter what Gai does the planet is doomed, which trigger a memory of him saying this once before, on a world with 3 suns, but tries to dismiss it. GoldyMarg refuses to listen to Hyuma and sit still until needed, busting out of the Bay Tower Base, becoming GoldyTank to get out the water, he starts shooting before being told of the girls, then triggers a missile by driving over it. GaiGar tears open the roof and the girls ejector seat out.

GoldyMarg brings down the plane as GaoGaiGar forms, so they have to Dividing Driver a safe crash site, but GoldyMarg is seemingly lost in the battlefield creation, then the Broken Magnum is destroyed, preventing use of Hell and Heaven, but fortunately GoldyMarg survived, enabling Hammer Hell and Heaven to defeat the Zonder.

Number.23 is Mic 13

NASA, like the Space Development Corporation, is a pinnacle of space development, the two entities working together on a project at the New Nevada base. The Solitary Wave Risers, 1st through 13th, all equipped with GS-Rides, the test is a success, and the head scientist, Dr. Liger, is glad of the chance to return to Japan, and see Leo and Gai. 

It has been raining for a week, Mamoru going for a meeting, as the Amphibious Armoured Maintenance Vehicle has a rondezvous with the US submarine Orlando, where a unit using the CR system will be transferred to them as payment for the offering of GS-Ride technology. The two dock and Liger rocket skateboards on, Liger greets his nephew Gai, before the old brothers start arguing, Leo Lariat facing Liger Uppercut. A sudden storm mid transfer causes the CR unit to be lost at see. 

Mamoru and Ushi face off in RC robot combat at an event, Mamoru's GaoGaiGar inspired unit winning. 

At the Big Order Room, the rellteam returned having recovered the case, however brothers find the case unlocked, the CR Unit vanished. 

Sunou has created the Hyper Sunou SRX to face Mamoru, however everyone is swiftly distracted by the giant robot that appears outside the event. 

GGG are searching for the CR unit, which only had it's AI installed 7 weeks ago, but it still has the mentality of a child. Fortunately, the intelligence division picks up the trail. As storms brew, Penchinon is sure this Zonder will be unstoppable. 

The robot picks up Mamoru, introducing himself as Mic Sounders 2000, or Mic, but after introductions Mamoru senses a Zonder, and Mic scares the kids with his stomping. 

GGG realises a Zonder is behind the storm, as the brothers start rescue work and Volfogg tries to save Mamoru but is intercepted by Penchinon, the stadium starts collapsing, the brothers hold the roof but Mic stops the kids running due to the external dangers, preparing to save them. He summons the UFO esque Baribarien, docking with is and telling the kids to get aboard.

GaoGaiGar flies into the storm but is buffeted, when another GS-Ride approaching is detected, as Mic, identified by Liger as the missing CR, flies past before dropping the kids off. Learning GaoGaiGar is Mamoru's friend, and refusing to do nothing, Mic flies at the storm, but is sent flying. Everyone else is occupied, so they launch GoldyMarg with the Dividing Driver to get to GaoGaiGar, which enables them to drive the storms away and reveal EI-22, and once the Goldion Hammer is activated it can do nothing but be defeated. Volfogg chases Penchinon but he escapes. Mic is retrieved, everyone wondering if he can even be of use, as Liger thinks about his hidden power even Mic knows nothing about. 

Number.24 is Protection Disabled.

Mic is being formally introduced to the team, while the Shishioh brothers argue, Liger mentioning NASA has the capacity to mass-produce the Pliers, and each of the Brave Robots explains to Mic their abilities. Mic starts to feel worthless, but Gai says there are robots with important jobs like Piggy, whom Mic develops a crush on. At this point, Mic is asked to take Mamoru home, Mamoru starts worrying if his friends will still like him if they learnt of his powers.

Pasdar discusses with the Four Heavenly Kings, while they need a new Zonder Metal Plant soon, he is convinced to prioritise eliminating the Legacy of Cain. 

Mic secretly hacks the archives, downloading data on the Zonders this far, and sneaks away, Volfogg, hidden, wonders what he plans. Liger breaks into the Baribarien, taking a floppy containing GGG records of 2005, and now just needs a Zonder Metal sample. 

Mamoru goes out, Ai discusses with Isamu how she fears him leaving one day. Pizza flies by. Yoseph pulls Hana along and barks at her classmate, Kaidou Ikumi, he is quiet, but she drags him to join the rest at the parade. Elsewhere, Gai, Swan and Mikoto are also watching, and concerned when Mic involves himself. Pizza arrives, and launches a Viking ship into the crowd towards Mamoru, before Gai can do anything a strange blue robot with an electric guitar blasts it away before flying off, Kaidou looks towards Pizza, who finds himself inexplicably intimidated, as though the boy psychicly attacked him. Mamoru and Gai both come to conclusions about the strange robot, while Liger can't see how the Protection was bypassed, as Volfogg, some distance away, also confirmed the ID.
