My name is Babel
I'm an alien who crashlanded on Earth to make repairs
I built a tower in order to communicate with my race
But because Earth's technology was so limited,
the tower exploded
I've decided to give up
But what will happen to the equipment aboard the ship after I die?
It would be too dangerous to let just anyone use it
So I've decided that a human who carries my blood would be appropriate for this task
Welcome... the second
I give you this tower and three guardians to protect you
Awake, Babel II
BABEL II

Those guys who call themselves `psychics' seem to have calmed down
Yeah, but there've been all kinds of incidents happening all over
Are you saying `the psychics' are to blame?
I don't know
And since I don't know, we'll have to continue this investigation
I don't believe it
They're nothing but a criminal organization
I'll find out what they really are
Chief Yamazaki of the United Nations and Sosenchi Yukata of the Criminal Investigations Department
He belongs to that group
What...?!
I'm glad you remember me
Are you all right, Oozenji-kun?
Yeah
Those who stand in the way of Yomi-sama's plans must be destroyed
Die!
Damn you... my fire...
That's right
Damn!
Are you all right?
Yes
Would you wait a minute?
I wonder what he's doing
He's using telepathy to get information
What?!
I've been doing some research on psychics
Watch out!
I won't let him get away
He escaped
Damn it!
The psychics are going to conquer the humans?
That's right
By gathering together all the world's psychics,
they plan to take over
Don't be ridiculous!
You can't believe that
Didn't you just see Koichi-kun's battle?
I'm no longer Koichi
I live in the Tower of Babel
I'm Babel II
Tower of Babel?
You mean the Kyu yaku seishoo?
That's right
Chief,
I found out about one base
So let's start by attacking it
OK
I should have killed you back then
What?
Since you failed to assassinate the United Nations' investigator and
you let them find out where our base is
Enough!
We will leave
Yes sir!
We will begin preparations immediately
Wait, Vaughn
Let's find out how powerful Babel II is
It seems you've finally learned how to control your power
You!
If you attack me,
I'll have to destroy you
Why are you on Yomi's side?
Those who have the power must join with Yomi-sama
Why can't you understand that?
But...
DAMN IT!
What's wrong?
Aren't you going to run away, slow poke?
Yomi-sama,
let me take care of Babel
As you wish
Yes, sir!
I'll show Yomi-sama how strong I am
To think that you'd find all this rejuvenation equipment beneath an island!
It seems they're making slaves by reconstructing kidnapped people
They're a scary bunch!
Chief!
You're safe!
Yes!
Thanks to you, we've learned a lot about them
But Yomi and his group have escaped
It looks like we'll have to proceed with the next phase
We'll have to find out where they went
We'll try to gain as much information as possible
Please do
Just what is he?
All I know is that it would be disastrous if the enemy got hold of him
I still don't understand
Babel!
I'm not going to let you go
Babel II,
it seems you have become our greatest enemy
If we just knew where he is, I would...
You shouldn't underestimate his strength
What...?!
Is that what you think?
Yes!
It looks like I may have to get involved
Excuse me
There's a message from Vaughn
From Vaughn?!
Hamaa, find out where Vaughn is
Yes, sir!
He plans to vindicate his honor
Someone's following me
Roporuos
He's on to me
I did it!
Let's go home, Roporuos
Vaughn-sama's signal has disappeared
Where was he?
I'll put it on the screen
It's in the desert
If one believes the legend,
it's the desert where the Tower of Babel was
Juju,
prepare the emergency helicopter
Yomi-sama
Yomi-sama,
what's wrong?
I...
I have been here before
What?
It's buried deep within my memory,
but I'm certain I've been here before
Bring out the Barung
The Tower of Babel
Yomi-sama...
I should have told you before
I have been here before
Door!
Open!
I command you to open!
One other time I felt something call me
And it guided me to this tower
I should have become the second ruler of this Tower.
Then that sandstorm was man-made
This tower is protected by advanced technology
It's a fabulous tower
But for some reason the tower denied me
It erased my memories and threw me deep into the desert
Those memories have returned to you, haven't they?
Hamaa,
go and check out the situation
Barung!
Babel II!
If I can just defeat him, I can conquer the tower
Babel II
Wait!
Barung!
There are traps even here!
I did it!
Babel II is finally...
I don't intend to join Vaughn
I won't be beaten so easily
Yami-san,
this is Hamaa
I've found Babel II
What...?!
Ridiculous!
Barung destroyed Babel II
Then who am I looking at?
I'm the real one
Is that so?
Perfect!
Your life is mine!
You're not even a challenge!
This can't be!
What's wrong?
What's happened, Hamaa?
Hamaa!
It's Yomi
Ba... Babel II
I see - a decoy...
Juju!
Yes!
Go back now
What?
I'm the only one who can defeat Babel
I want to fight by your side
I won't allow it
Should something happen, you must take my place
Go home
I don't want to
I'm going with you
You know nothing of this
Babel II,
I am coming for you
I've been waiting for you, Yomi
Babel II,
the time has come for me to take care of you
Yeah
It seems you don't like my energy shock
I can give you an even bigger taste of it
You're still alive
I'm impressed, Babel II
But this time I'll make sure you don't survive
Still... still you live!
How?
Yomi,
you have lost
What...?
Yomi,
you can't even stand up anymore
You used up all your body's energy
Not even suspecting that I've been absorbing your power...
What did you say?
The more you use your powers, the weaker you become
So now I'll return the energies I have absorbed from you
I wonder how long you'll last?
