The Riders Join the Battle

"Burn my heart's fire and crush the enemy!"

Grease looked at the Smash in front of him, his tone calm yet carrying a resolve that commanded belief.

But the mindless Smash felt no fear, charging straight at Grease.

"Die!"

Grease cranked the Driver's lever.

After loading the Fullbottle and Sclash Jelly into the Crusher device.

"Twin!"

Pressing the Crusher, Grease lowered his center of gravity and roared. His entire body radiated golden light mixed with black ripples.

His shoulders rotated ninety degrees, spraying a large amount of black machine-oil-like substance.

The oil not only provided a powerful thrust but also gathered under Grease's feet to form a slide.

"Ora!"

The slide extended forward. Grease rode the slide like a surfer, gliding past the Smash and striking its flank, instantly knocking it back.

Leaping off the slide, Grease hovered in mid-air, taking the opportunity to fire several energy beams, blasting the Smash off the ground.

"Ora!"

Grease returned to the Smash's side, delivering a rising dragon punch that sent it flying straight into the sky.

A spiral slide rose like a spring, quickly overtaking the ascending Smash to position Grease above it.

"Take this! Scrap Finish!"

Golden energy condensed on Grease's right leg as he kicked the Smash in the chest, driving it downward relentlessly.

Rumble—

Finally, a large crater appeared on the ground.

"Huff, huff..." Grease panted, seemingly having consumed a lot of energy, then moved his legs.

"Ugh..." The Smash groaned, turning into countless brown light particles and vanishing into the air.

"Hey! Are you two idiots done? Mahoro is still waiting for me! But why haven't the Hurricanegers arrived yet?"

Boom!

Rogue punched the Black Smash in the head. The spikes on its head were instantly shattered, and even a wolf tooth flew out.

The intense pain did not make the Black Smash retreat; instead, it triggered its wild nature, and it lunged at Rogue with extreme speed.

A dark shadow repeatedly swept past Rogue's body, leaving sparks on his armor, but Rogue seemed completely unfazed, focusing his mind to sense the enemy.

"For the sake of the greater good, this pain is nothing."

Rogue, after crossing over, had also experienced dozens of battles of various sizes. Prolonged combat had forged his battle instincts.

The next instant, Rogue sensed the Black Smash approaching rapidly from behind.

Rogue acted, spinning around to deliver a backkick with fluid, decisive movements.

Bang!!!

A massive shower of sparks erupted from the Black Smash's chest, the powerful force sending it flying backward.

Rogue's gaze locked onto the flying figure, and he quickly pulled the Driver's trigger.

"Scrap Finish!"

With a roaring sound, Rogue leaped forward. Purple energy gathered on his legs, forming the upper and lower jaws of a crocodile, snapping shut on the Black Smash's body.

As if a real crocodile were tearing its prey apart, Rogue's legs opened and crossed, and the purple crocodile opened its jaws again, biting down viciously.

The powerful energy swept the Black Smash far away, exploding into a sky full of black light particles upon hitting the ground.

Grease and Banjo Ryuga completed their tasks simultaneously. Banjo Ryuga had also executed his finisher.

"Right now, I am invincible!"

Banjo Ryuga activated his Dragon Fullbottle and Dragon Sclash Jelly. A blue dragon mixed with golden energy gathered at the screw-like tip of his Crusher.

With a single punch, he turned the White Smash into white light particles.

With the battle over, the three gathered and decided to turn back to check on the Hurricanegers.

...

"Hahahahaha..."

Sargain swung his sword, repeatedly striking Yousuke's chest and head. After defeating him, he leaped up and stepped on Yousuke's chest.

"Mugen Ryu Sword Style, Cross Slash!"

Wendinu executed her signature sword technique, throwing her sword.

"Figure-Eight Death Array!"

Furabiijo pulled out two weapons resembling short spears, like a bee's stingers. Holding them in both hands, she danced in a figure-eight pattern.

Nanami was caught at the intersection of the figure-eight. Every time Furabiijo drew a figure-eight, she could attack Nanami twice.

Just as the Hurricanegers were locked in a bitter struggle, several energy beams suddenly shot over, temporarily interrupting the Jakanja's actions.

"Who is it? The Gouraigers?!"

...

Not long ago, when the Gouraigers received Oboro's message, they prepared to head out. However, just as they moved, they were blocked by a hooded figure.

"Manmaru, you really are like a lingering ghost!"

"Gouraigers, today is your end!"

"Bring it on!"

The Gouraigers drew their Double Gadgets. Manmaru also drew his weapon. Both sides took their stances, watching each other, neither moving first.

Finally, Manmaru couldn't help but charge at the Gouraigers first.

Isshu and Ikkou stepped aside simultaneously. As Manmaru neared, they lunged forward together, their Double Gadgets slashing across his waist.

"Isshu!"

"Yes, Brother!"

"Thunder Strike!" x2

The two turned around in unison, flawlessly executing their Thunder Strike. A forward flip brought their lightning-infused Double Gadgets crashing down onto Manmaru's head.

Then, without looking back, they ran toward the Hurricanegers.

Behind them, Manmaru could no longer support his body. He fell to his knees, weakly reaching out toward the Gouraigers' retreating figures.

"As expected, can humans not defy destiny? But..."

Before he could finish his sentence, he exploded in a ball of fire.

...

"How can this be! Manmaru..." Hearing from the Gouraigers that Manmaru was dead, Wendinu was utterly shocked.

"He has bid farewell to this world. Next, it's your turn."

Isshu and Ikkou quickly joined the fray, freeing Yousuke from Sargain's grasp so that the Hurricanegers could focus on dealing with the two female ninjas, achieving their goal of defeating them one by one.
