Grudge! The Kurogane House’s Longest Day, Part II
His name is Tsurugi Tetsuya.
He was once renowned as a piloting genius.
The man who saved Tsubasa at Bardos Island ten years ago.
However, ten years later, he has appeared again
as a ghost hanging on to a grudge.
And if this continues, my life will be swallowed by Tetsuya’s grudge.
Exactly, but if you wish to saved, all you have to do is cut yourself off from that grudge.
See? He’s come to take it back as well.
Zeus’s arm, which you stole!
Th—That’s impossible!
The person over there is
my dad!
Huh? That’s not possible!
There’s no mistake. Look closely, Shiro!
The man over there is our dad!
That’s right. Because of him…
Because of him, we—
What was that?!
Could that be Photonic Power?!
Indeed, it is!
As you can see, that is Energer Z, created by Kenzo and Juuzo.
And unfortunately for you, it is neither a ghost nor an illusion.
It is the real thing that sunk with Bardos Island ten years ago.
Made by my teacher and Kenzo?
Now, what will you do?
If you hand over Zeus’s arm, he will be satisfied and disappear with the spell. You all will be saved.
Or else…
Or else what?
Pygman!
Mistress!
Well, well! You still had that much strength left in you.
I’m impressed.
That’s because, until I take care of you lot…
Then, do as you wish.
But please do not forget,
there is no tomorrow for you unless you return Zeus’s arm.
Mistress!
Are you all right? Mistress!
I must be getting dull if I’m being saved by you.
Mistress! Mistress!
She’s all right. She’s just unconscious.
But at this rate…
Wait. Look at that!
He’s coming straight for the Kurogane House!
I know.
Shiro, I’m going out in Mazinger.
You take care of Mom!
Bro, you just called her mom.
Shiro!
Listen. That doesn’t matter right now.
Just protect her.
If you want to keep calling her “Mistress,” that’s fine,
but don’t let her die, no matter what!
Please!
Okay…
Professor, you protect the laboratory. Ashura, take care of this place!
All right.
Mazin Go!
Bro…
Laboratory, please respond.
Listen. We will deploy the Photonic Barrier that’s still in development.
Okay! We need to hurry too!
Shiro, you help too.
Okay, but…
What’s the matter, Shiro?
We see it too!
Idiots! Be quiet!
It seems the Kabuto clan is a pack of sinners.
If things continue, then his grudge will affect everyone here, and there will be no turning back, just as Pygman said.
Shut up! Go away!
Very well,
but this grudge will not be easily severed.
Right, Kabuto Kouji!
Here I come!
How do you like that?!
If it’s a fight you want, I’ve got the edge—
What?!
Bro!
Wh—What? Kabuto’s losing?
What is this power?!
Mazinger is losing.
Oh, no!
It should be obvious.
Don’t you understand?
Only Photonic Power can counter Photonic Power,
and those two Z’s were created from the same Japanium ore.
Th—That’s…
Zeus!
It’s Zeus’s arm!
Wh—What is that?!
Look at it, Father!
Th—This brilliance… This brilliance!
Could it be Zeus’s arm?
No, it’s Japanium ore.
Indeed.
But we thought it could only be found under Fuji Forest in Japan.
That doesn’t matter. Look!
There’s no mistake. This is… This is—
Careful, careful.
That’s why scientists are a pain.
Compared to you, we pilots understand that this thing is alive and active.
That’s just my gut feeling, though.
L—Living?!
Yeah. Doing well, too.
Then…
This energy emanating from this arm is…
It’s what our family has been searching for. Photonic Power!
Even thousands of years later, Zeus’s arm still lives!
However, its seal has been lifted this present era!
Bardos Island will be reborn again!
Behold, this wondrous sight!
This beautiful island upon which the gods once lived.
This is Photonic Power, which will shine the light of hope onto the world’s future!
Juuzo and Kenzo push forward with their research.
All in the name of Zeus!
And then—
Go, Pilder!
All right. Do it, Tetsuya!
Okay!
Here I come!
Pilder On!
Energer Z!
It’s moving. This is amazing power is moving!
It’s like I’m moving my own arms, my own legs.
It’s all moving to my will. I am this machine.
I am Energer Z!
The completion of Energer Z.
This was the first step toward the infinite possibilities Photonic Power held.
However, the vigilant eyes of Dr. Hell, who sought to take this research, were upon them.
Finally.
It is finally time to bring my dreams to fruition.
Behold, these many mechanical beasts.
If I were to put the Photonic Power from Zeus’s arm into these, they would be invincible.
All of you! I proclaim here and now!
I will advance my Five Great Armies onto each continent and dominate the world in three days! Prepare yourselves!
Hell finally showed his true colors.
Now all we can do is make the first move.
What is that? What is going on?!
Dr. Hell, someone may have beaten us to it!
What?
Pygman, do not let them escape.
In that case, I will make them sacrifices to my world domination.
Curse you, Juuzo.
Did you call?
You bastard.
I’ve known what you’ve been plotting for a long time.
I’d never let the likes of you have the precious arm of Zeus.
I’m going to take my time and research it once I get it back to Japan.
I had given you control of one of my Five Great Armies.
Who’d want that?
That’s nothing compared to Zeus’s arm.
And what will you do now?
My subordinates are above us.
That’s why I took you hostage.
No!
You fell for it, Juuzo!
You!
Are you all right, Dr. Hell?!
Of course.
So, you did make him into your lapdog!
Out of bullets? What a shame.
Go, Ashura.
What?
I won’t allow it.
You’re…
Tetsuya, respond.
I’ve arrived at the escape point.
The ship can embark right away!
N—No…
How unfortunate.
Now you cannot escape.
Pygman! How did you know about this spot?
Sorry.
At some point, he had switched sides.
O—Oh, no…
That’s terrible…
Dad did?
There was no mistake. I saw them as well;
Nishikiori Tsubasa’s memories, inside that Corinth pillar.
Unfortunately, I cannot allow you to leave Bardos Island.
W—Why?
Listen well. Bardos holds not only those mechanical soldiers. It holds more fantastic unknown technology.
I intend to research them all and create the world’s ultimate robot.
I’m sorry.
This is all because of my stupid son.
But please remember that I saved you.
Your own father?!
Be at ease.
Kenzo here will complete the research on Photonic Power.
How terrible…
That was…
Kenzo!
Tetsuya…
My, oh my.
A troublesome one has come.
Shut up!
What the hell are you doing?!
Teacher, hurry and grab Miss Nishikiori.
Don’t let them get away, Pygman!
Don’t move.
Leave this to me!
What?!
You must be under hypnosis or something from Dr. Hell!
I’ll wake you up!
You fool!
What?!
Oh, no!
Behold!
The power of Mykene’s legacy!
Kenzo!
My research had been stolen.
Science is much more terrible than we think it is,
because there are forbidden things which we must eradicate from this world.
Do not forget that science has the courage and right to withdraw from those.
He said that, and took the Kedra away from me.
That’s why I killed him!
Even if I had involved this innocent man…
No!
In that situation,
he had to be killed!
Now you have no other choice!
You stupid child!
Relax, Father. I still need you.
Shut up!
I am no longer your parent, and you are no longer my child!
Then, there’s no other way.
I will have you two leave this island.
To the hereafter!
What is this?!
The arm! Zeus’s arm!
It moved! At that moment, the arm moved.
It was as if it was under the control of Zeus’s will.
As if Zeus was trying to come back to life to destroy all evil.
Now I understand
what Photonic Power really is!
Now!
Kenzo, why? Why did you?!
Shut up! What do you know of science?!
Tetsuya!
Shoot!
Use that gun to shoot me along with him!
Me? Shoot Kenzo?
That’s right!
Give up on him!
He’s no longer Kenzo!
He’s something else.
So, listen to me.
You two need to get out of here
and forget everything about this island.
Forget…
That’s right! Forget about this technology!
So please, shoot!
Tetsuya!
Now you know
why I killed your father.
But…
He asked you to shoot him.
His grudge is baseless.
That’s true too.
The issue here is Zeus’s arm.
I’m sure Juuzo hid it somewhere after creating Mazinger.
Then, you’ll continue to…
Can you help me up for a moment?
Yes.
Rocket Punch!
If I’m going to die anyway, then I’d like to see the match between the two Z’s before I go.
Breast Fire?!
Then, how about Rust Hurricane!
Photonic Beam!
Bro!
It’s coming!
What are you doing?!
If you do nothing, then there will be no turning back!
Hurry and produce Zeus’s arm!
Leave me be.
We’re under under this sunny sky. It’s a good day to die.
But…
You’re the one who’s going to die!
Why?!
Quiet, you fool!
Show me your true form, Pygman!
How did you know?!
Listen up.
Ashura did see my memories with me back there.
But isn’t it odd?
In the memory you spoke of, you included the part when I was unconscious.
A portion of the story that wasn’t in my memory.
You knew because you were there.
That was pretty good acting, though, dressing up as Ashura to fool us.
So, I’ll reward you by showing you
Zeus’s arm.
That’s…
It can’t be!
That’s right! Come!
God Scrander!
