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

chikyuu no yoake wa mou chikai

The dawning of the earth is near...

"A Conspiracy in the Underground Fortress."

Shit!

Kenichi! The beast fighter is sucking our energy!

What?

Go Gargo! Beat Voltes V! You were fashioned after the Bengal Tiger. Defeat Voltes V!

You must meet the expectations of Prince Heinel, who caught you singlehandedly! Go!

Hold it! Return to our underground base! Retreat, Gargo!

Why, Prince Heinel? The battle has barely begun! Why retreat so soon?

Jangal, look over there.

That's the ship of Duke Zaki, chief inspector of Emperor Zambojil. The Emperor's hatchetman.

I wonder why the Boazanian Chief Inspector is here.

Perhaps to check on us. Jangal, guide him to our underground base.

Yes sir.

Why did it retreat all of a sudden? After it!

Sounds good! Let's go after it.

Wait Kenichi!

Don't go after it. You are low on energy. Return to base. We'll be ready for it when it returns.

I understand.

Jangal, be on your guard. We haven't defeated Voltes V, so our progress is slow.

We don't know what Duke Zaki will report to the Emperor about us.

Yes. Many were put to death based on his reports. He likes telling the Emperor bad news.

That's correct. That Duke Zaki is a vile man.

Duke Zaki, we welcome you and acknowledge your being the Emperor's inspector.

The years have been kind to you, Prince Heinel.

And how is the beloved Emperor?

He's fine except for something that's particularly irritating him.

I take it that is the reason why you are here.

That's very perceptive, though I always thought you were slow in seeing the obvious.

Duke Zaki! What are you saying?

I'm not saying anything that didn't come from the Emperor himself.

The Emperor?

He said that you are weak, dumb, and unworthy of your position.

He also said having you lead this mission was a very big mistake.

You're lying. The Emperor couldn't have said such things!

It must be humiliating for you to be told such things in front of your generals.

WHAT!? Keep talking. I don't care who you are. Nobody talks to me that way in my own base!

My, what a treacherous tone.

Prince Heinel.

Prince Heinel! Don't lose your composure!

Do you really have what it takes to kill the Chief Inspector?

You're a traitor like your father, who conspired to take the throne of the Boazanian Empire!

Your ambition, like your father's, is sadly misplaced. I drink to your failure!

Damn you! I've had it you!

Please control yourself.

Let me go, Jangal!

Please sir!

What are you waiting for, kill me! Go ahead, kill me!

Please forgive him, Duke Zaki!

Please forgive his treachery! He never meant it! Please, Duke Zaki. Forgive him!

Katharine.

He's been very irritable lately. We have been losing to the Earthlings.

You're still too immature. You need to learn to control your emotions.

Prince Heinel, forgive me.

It's all right. I'm used to being humiliated.

Since I was a kid I have been branded as the son of a traitor. I had no friends.

Isn't that the son of the traitor?

That weasel's father is a traitor!

Unbelievable! They should have killed him off with his father!

When he gets older, he'll probably be a traitor too!

That's true!

I was raised by my grandparents who refused

to say anything about him and his act of treason.

Sorry to hear that. If it weren't true, your father would be the Emperor right now.

Don't say such things. If Duke Zaki heard this he would surely tell the Emperor about it.

I'm grateful for this position they gave me despite my father being a traitor.

Did you ever know your father?

No I don't. I never saw him.

He died before I was born. My mother died after giving birth to me.

I have to accomplish this mission to redeem my family's honor and be accepted once again.

Only then can I prove my bravery to Duke Zaki.

What!? Is it true? The Emperor is plotting the death of Prince Heinel?

The Emperor has instructed you to spy on Prince Heinel to help make this work.

It won't be easy. Prince Heinel is a brilliant commander.

The Emperor wants the Earthlings to defeat Prince Heinel and cause his death.

He wants him dead?!

Heinel is the rightful heir. The Emperor got the throne by killing Heinel's father.

So the Emperor is afraid that Heinel will find out.

If Heinel is killed, then the problem is solved. It's really bothering the Emperor.

So what do you have in mind?

We must think of a way to get rid of that Heinel.

This is so troublesome. How did Heinel land this job anyway?

He was chosen to take over since nobody else seemed qualified for the task.

I have an idea. Let's have Heinel personally pilot Gargo to battle!

Let the Earthlings kill him for us. The Emperor will be relieved to hear of his death.

It'll work, if we work together.

What do you mean?

Does your beast fighter have a weak point?
