We'll do it! Until our strength is used up.

chikyuu no yoake wa mou chikai

The dawning of the earth is near...

"The Traitor's Scheme."

How is everything?

General Zuhl! Everything is going fine, sir. Look, this is our arsenal.

Good. I'll be ready in a few days. Prince Heinel, you shall die soon.

Where did you come from? You'll pay for intruding! Die!

Idiot!

This is an imperial investigator!

Heinel must be aware of my plot! This is bad! I must find out how much they know!

I don't believe it!

But sir, according to the investigator, it is clearly an assassination plot against you.

Doesn't that fool know that he doesn't have the means to do it?

Jangal! I want to interrogate him personally! Bring Zuhl here!

Yes sir!

Wait, Prince Heinel!

What?

If a rat smells a trap, it will avoid it. Asking Zuhl directly is pointless. He'll deny it.

Please listen. I have a plan in mind to confirm his plot.

What do you have in mind?

Let's use a truth serum on him.

I understand! Good idea!

This is bad. I'll have to make my move and kill him tonight.

When you wake up, you'll be in hell! Now you die!

This is your end!

A dummy!

Nice try!

You didn't really think I can be killed so easily, did you, Zuhl?

I knew about that secret passage long before you did!

Now you've been found out!

It was my idea to let you hear about our plot with the truth serum!

Is that so?

Did you really believe everything we've talked about?

Now you die, traitor!

Please forgive me! I'm sorry! Please spare my life!

You dare ask for mercy!? DIE!

Wait!

Prince Heinel!

Help him up.

What?!

Thank you! You are indeed compassionate! Thank you!

Don't touch me!

I'll forgive you under one condition.

That is if you manage to kill the Voltes Team by infiltrating their base!

All of them?

Yes. All of them!

That's impossible!

Impossible? If you can't do it, then I'll have you beheaded!

But...

Decide now!

Yes sir, I shall kill all of the Voltes Team.

Your life depends on it.

Yes sir.

If you succeed, I'll forget your failed assassination attempt. But if you fail, you die!

Yes sir. Don't you worry, I shall succeed!

Then off you go! Leave at once!

Halt!

It's an old man!

Look, he needs help!

That's a Boazanian general! It's Zuhl!

Call the base!

Okay!

Stay right there!

Please don't shoot! I come in peace! I need your help! Please help me!

Prince Heinel wants to kill me! Please help me!

Hold it! Hold it!

Zuhl?

It is indeed Zuhl!

What is he doing here?

Maybe it's a trap!

That doesn't matter! I can't stand to see him! I'll kill him right here!

Wait, Ippei!

Don't you feel the same way I do?

Yes, but he's defenseless.

For all we know, your father may be dead because of him. It's time for payback!

Ippei. If father is dead, killing Zuhl won't bring him back. It's pointless.

We must set an example. We might set a bad precedent.

Please help me! Prince Heinel wants to kill me!

What!? Heinel wants you dead?! Why?

Yes! Listen to me!

Those gullible humans! In five minutes, their base will explode!

Prince Heinel, your plan is indeed a splendid one.

Traitors have no right to live!

Once the Voltes Team and Zuhl are gone, nothing shall stop my conquest of Earth!

Zuhl has no idea that the ball chained to his foot is a bomb!

He should be honored that he'll die in the line of duty.

Prince Heinel has always been cruel to me. He exploited my knowledge in engineering.

He made me build beast fighters to pit against Voltes V and I was punished when they fail.

He had me tortured constantly and one day he threw me in a cell.

Bullshit! How did you manage to escape so easily?

There are Boazanians opposed to the invasion of Earth. They helped me escape!

More bullshit.

Zuhl, you said you'd help us, right?

Yes, I'll help any way I can.

Tell us where the Boazanian Underground Base is located.

Well...

See? He’s stalling! He’s obviously lying his Boazanian ass off!

Well, tell us.

Well...

Kenichi, wait a second!

There's a strange ticking sound coming from this ball!

What?!

Is it a time bomb?

What!? A time bomb!?

Tako!

Any second now.

Tako!

That was close! Everybody okay?

Tako! Are you okay?

Tako is fine because Hiyoshi built him strong and sturdy!

Tako! Thank goodness!

That treacherous Prince Heinel! He wanted me to die whether I did what he asked or not!

Zuhl! This is all part of your ploy, right?

No!

I ought to shaft you!

This staff is ticking too! It's a bomb!

GANGWAY!!!

I should've known better than to trust Prince Heinel! He wanted me dead all along!

I won't rest until I kill him! I'll choke him to death with my bare hands!

I'll crush his skull! I swear. Prince Heinel! I'll kill you! I’LL KILL YOU!!!

What do you want from us, you want help?

You must help me kill Prince Heinel!

I have caused your planet much destruction. I want to redeem myself! I want to kill him!

If I don't kill him, he'll kill me!

Please! I'll help you, Voltes Team! I'll show you where their base is located! Let's attack it!

I'll show you where Heinel's underground base is!

What!? Underground base? Isn't Prince Heinel also in that base?

Yes, he's there! Prince Heinel is there!

Professor! I don't believe him!

I don't trust him either!

Wait! Where is this base?

It's on an island up north!

There's a deserted volcanic island there. It's perfect to put up a base in!

Kenichi! You believe this bullshit?

How can you trust him after everything he's done to us?

I'm telling the truth! Please believe me!

Please believe me! I desperately want to kill Heinel!

Wait, Kenichi!

You don't believe his bullshit do you? It's probably a trap!

We didn't know where their base is until now. Let's check it out. If it's a trap, then we fight.

Kenichi!

Ippei, we're defending the Earth from these invaders. If we find their base, we can end this!

It's worth checking out even if there’s a chance it's only a trap!

Professor, don't you agree?

Proceed at once.

They’re falling for it! I’ll lead them to my secret base and kill them there!

Then Voltes V will be mine and I'll use it to kill Heinel! Then the Boazanian base will be mine!

Zuhl, how far are we from the island?

We should be there soon.

There it is! That's the island where the base is!

Okay team, let's go!

There’s a cave in the mountains, that's the entrance to the base.

Okay, I get it.

There are two pathways. Take the one on the right. The one on the left is a trap.

Kenichi, this is fishy! We got in here so easily!

That's right.

That's because I know where to pass! Please don't worry, trust me.

Okay, keep going!

Look out! A dead end!

Go straight ahead!

What!? Straight ahead?!

Yes. There's a sensor. This passage is normally used by beast fighters.

It's amazing!

Impressive!

So this is their base!

It's bigger than I thought!

This is strange. Nobody's here!

Is anyone here? Where is everyone?

What's going on? Can anyone hear me?

What in tarnation is going on here?

What's happening here?

Zuhl! This is a trap! Admit it!

No! Please let me go!

Shut up!

Tell me the truth!

I don't know what you're talking about!

You lied to us!

Look out!

Ippei! Get back in your ship!

Hurry!

Oh no! Ippei!

If anyone moves, Ippei dies!

Prince Heinel.

Thank you, Zuhl.

Oh no.

You've done well in bringing me the Voltes Team.

This is all for you and our cause. I had this base made for you. I led them here for you.

This is all part of my service to you and our cause, Prince Heinel.

I'm very grateful. You shall be rewarded accordingly.

Thank you sir!

Idiot! Do you think I can’t see through your scheme?

Zuhl! You led them here so you can kill them and use Voltes V against me! You traitor!

So this isn't really THE base, is it?

Zuhl had you all fooled.

Please, Prince Heinel, forgive me. Please give me another chance! Forgive me, sir.

Away with him!

Die, Heinel!

Hurry! Attack the volt machines!

Yes!

That beam is strong! It disintegrated the floor!

Shit! How can we fight in this enclosed area?

Kenichi! I'll drill a way out with the Lander! We'll volt in when we're out of here!

Okay! Team, Megumi will drill a way out! Let's follow her lead!

Okay!

They won't get away! Have the beast fighter attack them!

What is it, Megumi?

A beast fighter!

Shit! Okay team! Let's unite! LET'S VOLT IN!!!

VOLTES V!!!

Shit! GRAND FIRE!!!

CHAIN KNUCKLES!!!

SWORD OF HEAVEN!!!

We did it.

What's that?

What's that?

The beast fighter transformed!

What's this?

Oh no!

It's hot!

We have to get out of here!

It’s so hot here!

We can't move!

That did it! Let's go!

SWORD OF HEAVEN!!! V SLASH!!!

That traitor! Death is a lenient sentence for what he is guilty of! He's dishonored us!

We must erase every memory of him! Burn all his things and pictures of him!

There must be no memory of him at all!
