The dawning of the earth is near...

Why? Why can't I defeat Voltes V?

Prince Heinel, tell me why you don't trust me anymore?

Why didn't you tell me about General Bergan's arrival from Boazan?

What?! General Bergan is coming here?

Prince Heinel, don't you know about it? I found out from General Bergan himself.

He said he's coming here as your assistant, under orders from the emperor himself.

Please tell me, are Jangal and I of no use to you anymore? Have you lost confidence in us?

I didn't say that. I don't know of any message from the emperor or General Bergan.

Is that so?

Yes it is.

Then you really don't know about it?

Yes! I know nothing about it!

I'm worried about this. I smell another assassination plot against Prince Heinel.

"The Challenge of the New General."

You puny humans, I hope you like my gift of meteorites!

Big Falcon is being showered by meteorites!

What!?

What's that!?

Spread the barrier!

Yes!

I'm General Bergan of Boazan. How do you like the meteorites I sent you as a gift?

What? That's a gift!?

You arrogant bastard!

I checked your defenses. It's impressive considering you're a bunch of animals!

Animals? Look who's talking!

You're the one with the horns and you're calling US animals!?

You humans get angry so easily. I just want to tell you that Voltes V is as good as junk.

I'll conquer your planet soon. You can't do anything about it!

What an asshole! I'll show you. Bergan! I'm going to kick your ass!

Wait Ippei!

Look at our radar.

Our radars seem to be malfunctioning. We can't even see him.

What a piss off.

Professor! If this keeps up, our radar will be useless and we won't see the enemy coming!

This General Bergan may have the brains to match his mouth.

There's nobody here! There's no welcoming committee?

Nobody prepared for my arrival?

Greetings, Jangal!

No welcoming committee? The emperor sends me and nobody welcomes me!?

Prince Heinel never asked you to come here. Your arrival is unofficial! Why welcome you?!

What!? Get out of my way!

General Bergan, it's rude to face Prince Heinel like this! Unmask yourself!

Wait!

I don't have to listen to you! Unhand me!

Prepare to defend yourself!

Jangal!

So you're going to attack me? Go ahead! But can you really do it?

Are you strong enough? Is your sword sharp enough to cut through my armor? Try me!

Damn!

My sword which has never been broken before has broke!

Prince Heinel, forgive my rudeness, but I only wanted to show you how tough this armor is.

This is made of the super strong alloy Mazingar.

What? It's made of Mazingar?

Yes. If we make a beast fighter using this alloy, even Voltes V's sword can't cut through it.

How can you be sure? Just because it broke my sword doesn't mean it's invincible!

We'll see. Prince Heinel, why don't you test this armor to see its invincibility?

What?! Test it?

You're willing to subject it to all kinds of testing?

Of course. Knock yourself out!

Now we'll show you how weak your armor is, General Bergan.

All right, begin!

Yes. Soldiers, fire!

Stop!

Try it again! Now with flamethrowers!

Kill him! Kill him!

Stop!

What!?

Let's see it withstand this!

Looks like I passed.

That settles it then. Katharine, Jangal. Do you now believe in the invincibility of this armor?

Prince Heinel, with this armor, I am confident that we shall finally be able to defeat Voltes V.

What? We'll use your armor?

Yes. We'll fortify your beast fighter with Mazingar. I must start. Where is your lab?

Professor, if I expose it to short waves of 95,000 megacycles, this is what happens.

The radar is affected by the electromagnetic radiation.

The enemy seems to be very wise, sir.

So that's how they incapacitated the radar. The meteor shower caused the interference.

We must remove the meteorites otherwise the radar won't work.

General Bergan is not just arrogant, he's a superior scientist.

What are you doing?

That obviously can't be made into a beast fighter.

This doesn't concern you. I design the beast fighter! Don't tell me what to do!

I'm the special assistant of Prince Heinel. He is the only one that ranks higher than me!

I don't care what you do. I make the decisions concerning the beast fighter!

I don't like this at all.

Sir, transplant my brain into the beast fighter!

Sir, give me the honor.

Our new beast fighter is a strong one. Strength decides which is the better beast fighter.

Is that so?

Is strength really what makes a good beast fighter?

What?

It isn't enough that a beast fighter is strong. Without a good brain, it could still lose!

It's no wonder why you have been losing to Voltes V!

I don't need your input!

I'm the assistant of Prince Heinel. He's the only one who ranks higher than me! Move aside!

Now who has the best brain here?

I don't like this!

If this beast fighter wins, the emperor will give Heinel's position to me. He'll have to give it up.

Then I'll be head of the Earth Invasionary Forces.

Prince Heinel, did you really give General Bergan authority to design the beast fighter?

Did you also give him the authority to oversee the brain transplant?

No, I didn't give him any authority.

Prince Heinel, I suspect he has a hidden agenda. He came here without telling us.

What? Exactly what are your suspicions?

Prince Heinel, it's possible that he is part of the emperor's plot to have you eliminated.

No!

The emperor is my uncle. I don't want to hear any more of this nonsense!

If I hear any more conjecture, I'll have your heads! Is that clear?

Yes sir.

Is this the new beast fighter?

How do you like it? With this beast fighter, we don't have to worry about Voltes V anymore.

Don't underestimate the enemy. We've lost to them repeatedly.

Yes, I understand. I've already implemented my strategy before you instructed me.

You're just my assistant! I won't tolerate your insubordination!

I understand, sir, please allow me to explain.

The meteorite shower on Big Falcon are no ordinary meteorites.

They generate electromagnetic radiation that causes interference with their radar.

We have the element of surprise.

I understand.

All right, let's go guys!

Okay, we're back to normal, the radar is working again.

There's a huge object approaching us from 243 northeast.

That's the enemy! Sound the alarm!

There's a beast fighter approaching from direction 243 northeast! Go there immediately!

Yes sir!

Okay, on my way!

That General Bergan messed up! Voltes V is already here! How did they locate us!?

This stupid contraption is supposed to give us the element of surprise? It doesn't work!

Looks like you underestimated Voltes V after all, General Bergan.

What happened to the element of surprise?

It's huge!

It's the first time we faced one this big!

The armor looks thick, too.

Okay, let's attack!

Let's go! CREW MISSILE!!!

LANDER SHURIKEN!!!

Shit! It didn't work!

Brother! Let's unite!

Okay! LET'S VOLT IN!!!

VOLTES V!!!

Now you die!

GRAND FIRE!!!

SUPERELECTROMAGNETIC TOPS!!!

It doesn't work!

Prince Heinel, watch closely! Okozenia will show you his true strength!

Voltes V! Use your sword! It's all you have left!

VOLTES BAZOOKA!!!

Okay! Let's go, team!

SWORD OF HEAVEN!!!

Come on, Voltes V!

The sword can't cut through!

What happened?

The armor's too thick!

The sword is useless!

This is the end for you!

This is a glorious day for us, Prince Heinel! Voltes V is finished! Victory is ours!

Now you die, Voltes V!

This is your end!

Okozenia, finish them off!

What's that?

It's a good thing it helped us.

What was that?

Kenichi! Look! The beast fighter has changed color!

It might have weakened, brother!

Okay! If it has weakened, then this is our chance! GRAND FIRE!!!

SWORD OF HEAVEN!!!

Okay, now!

We did it!

We beat it, brother!

We did it!

Prince Heinel, I am sorry for my failure. I was instructed to help you defeat Voltes V.

If I succeed, your position would be mine. But if I failed, I would have to take my own life.

Prince Heinel, please intercede on my behalf.

Just as I suspected. You really had a hidden agenda against Prince Heinel!

Damn you!

No! Damn you!

I forgive you, General Bergan.

Is that true, sir?

Prince Heinel!

General Bergan, you must now help me. Jangal, Katharine, forget this rivalry.

You three generals must all cooperate in this effort to defeat Voltes V! Is this clear?

You must all work together!

Yes sir. I understand. For sparing my life, I shall devote myself to you, Prince Heinel.

I trust that all of you will give this your all. Jangal? Katharine?

Yes sir.

Professor, do you know anything about that mechanical eagle that helped us?

I don't know.

Did it come from another country?

No, no country can make a light beam generator like that which weakened the enemy.

So could it have come from another planet then?

No, frankly, I really don't know.

A mysterious mechanical eagle came and helped Voltes V in a critical moment.

However, nobody knows where this mechanical eagle came from or who its pilot is.

Only time will tell if he will reveal himself.
