On the day of the Finals, Takeru received a Challenge Letter from Yomino Takeru
The Challenge was at the Old Junk Yard
It appeared that Amatsumi and Shaman had arranged this and they had Oto as hostage
Takeru was forced to fight Amatsumi instead
Meanwhile Ma Horoba and Roka were able to save Oto
Which was actually a dummy
This enraged Takeru when he found out
Using the Shield of Courage Takeru defeated Amatsumi and rushed to the Tournament
23. JUDGEMENT DAY
Where is Susanoo?!
What a coward! Come out!
Takeru where the hell are you!
[Just what has happened to Susanoo?]
[He STILL hasn't reported in]
[Is this part of his strategy to confuse Gaioh?]
[Or is Susanoo afraid of losing and is now forfeiting?]
(He will come...)
(Oto too...)
(But Yamato Takeru won't leave...)
Takeru!
Faster Takeru, or Oto will be in trouble!
Hurry!
Shut up! I can't go any faster...arrggHhh...
Come on Susanoo just a bit faster
Susanoo!
[Thirty Seconds remaining!]
[Susanoo will forfeit in thirty seconds which means Gaioh will be Champion!]
[Twenty seconds remaining!]
[If he doesn't show this will be the first forfeit in the Game of Death's history!]
Takeru...
[Eight seconds!]
[Seven]
[Six]
[Five]
[Four]
[Three]
[Two]
That’s...
[This isn't Susanoo! There is an unknown Combat Machine in the Arena!]
There's no use waiting...
Susanoo isn't coming because Widow Maker already defeated him
What!
What the hell?
Because of this, I Shaman Bogart replace the original Combatant by default
Yeah!
[New development]
[Shaman Bogart herself is now challenging her own representative Gaioh!]
Bogart really is a Sly Dog
What are you playing?
[I just want to participate in this Tournament. Nothing else]
[You think your Combat Machine has a chance against mine?]
Oh no? Just remember Oto is with me
Oto?
You want to prevent me from using full power...
If you know what's best for her...
[Good news! The judges have allowed Widow Maker to replace Susanoo for the FINALS!]
Yeah!
[Once again we will now find out who the True Champion is!]
Champion! Champion!
[Loser receives Death!]
Death! Death!
[For your enjoyment we have rigged this event]
[As the Hydro Elimination event!]
Yeah!
So tell me, where is Susanoo?
I assume Tamanoo has turned him to Scrap Metal
Tamanoo...
Is that so? Damn him...
Get out of the way!
The Fight has started! No one gets in!
But he IS the Combatant how can the Fight start?
Doesn't matter. It's started
What?
Hey kid!
Aren't you Lord Daisaku?
As I thought, Susanoo hasn't been destroyed
[The two most powerful Combat Machines are locked in Battle!]
[But who will the Angels smile upon?]
[Shaman Bogart's Widow Maker?]
[Or Yomino Takeru's Gaioh?]
Why is this happening?
What's the story?
Shaman Bogart has always planned to avenge her father
Her father died in the Ring and ruined the family's reputation
It's up to her to bring Glory back to the Bogart name
[In these conditions, movements are slowed and Oxygen is limited]
[If the battle carries on too long, both pilots will die!]
Look!
Father can you see? The Glory is all mine!
[I wouldn't laugh so hard...]
What?
Now I show you MY Kung Fu
[What's this? Gaioh is on full retaliation!]
Shaman is in for it!
She's going to die
That's exactly what the crowd wants...
Uncle!
Death! Death!
Takeru!
Are you crazy! What about your Sister!?
[My Sister]
Is nothing more than a tool to lure Yamato Takeru
What!
[Your time is up...]
[Time to die!]
STOP!
It's Susanoo!
But you're...
That's enough! This isn't a Game, it's just barbaric!
[Incredible! The supposedly defeated Susanoo has just showed up!]
Finish this Yomino Takeru! I've been shamed and would rather die!
No! The battle has been decided!
Get off the stage!
Let the battle continue!
What is Glory? What is Prestige? For this how many must die!!!
Inferior life forms deserve death
Are you even Human!
Human?
Have you forgotten me?
Yamato Takeru!
Mikazuchi! You...
These are all worthless people who don't deserve life
So I've made the choice for them
Shut up!
Yamato Takeru! You will be oblitered along with Mizuo!
Is that an Earthquake?
Mikazuchi!
[Do not panic! This Arena has been fitted with shock absorbers and can withstand...]
We'll all be destroyed!
Damn it
I won't lose!
Need a hand kid?
Uncle!
Lord Daisaku! Takeru!
Even with both of them it's not enough
I'll help!
Me too!
And me!
DO IT!
I think it worked!
Shaman!
Why... Takeru why are you saving me. I'm a failure
I live now only to get mocked. I have been shamed and deserve to die
WHY TAKERU!!!
I DON'T KNOW WHY!
I hate you AND this place!
But killing is wrong!
[Life is precious! How can you waste it!]
Watch out Takeru!
Shaman!
Oto!
Wake up Oto!
Roka?
She’s okay!
Shaman...why?
If I'm going to die, I'd make it count
It's over... It's finally over...
Shaman!
[She is so stupid!]
[Mikazuchi!]
We'll take care of Oto
Let's finish what we started Yamato Takeru
Amatsumi!
Perfect. Yamato Takeru and the traitor all in one place. I'll take care of you both
You think you have a chance against me?
[Stop!]
Stop! This isn't the time. There's been enough death today!
Idiot! Since you want to die for Justice, I'll help you out!
Good idea. We'll kill Yamato Takeru first
Takeru!
This won't end well!
NO!
The three Shadow Guardians are tearing Space and Time!
What!
Why?!
How did this happen? It's just a Wasteland now
We've worked so hard for everything
And for what?
I don't know, but I bet those kids do
We're okay
That's...
What's happening?
Where are we?!
