Smallville

Tokusatsu Trilogy

Part 2

Of Pirates and Justice

Hello, it's the Cool Headed Exiakaiser again with the second part of the Tokusatsu trilogy. This time, another first for me: this time five chapters instead of four. This way, those who don't know what I am talking about will understand. However, it's time to get right down to business. First of all, about the poll. I only got one vote apiece, so I decided it was time to close them and decide for myself. After much deliberation (and a few dice rolls), I decided to use the 35th Super Sentai team. That's right, folks, sorry for your trouble. I decided to go ahead and do a Gokaiger-themed story. Here's how this works: There will be no titanium ranger, and only the ranger keys I decide to put in will be used. Also, If you guys review my story, and submit an original monster each chapter, I may put it in. However, only those who are not total bombs or broken monsters with to much power will get added.

Now onto the most important part of the introduction: to explain to those new to the tokusatsu to those who don't understand the lingo, and to give a synopsis of the story. First off, to cover for my mistake of not adding this to the first story, Kamen Rider (lingo: Kamen: Japanese for Masked), was a Japanese series that now has over 40 different series. The original series was about a young Biochemist and motorcycle racer named Takeshi Hongo, who had the misfortune of being abducted by a terrorist organization called SHOCKER (Acronym for Sacred Hegemony of Cycle Kindred Evolutional Realm). SHOCKER turned him into a cyborg and were gonna use him in their evil schemes, if it weren't for his professor friend, who died trying to escape them. Because of this, Hongo swore revenge. In some ways, Kamen Rider has been likened to that of Batman.

Now onto the theme for this series: Super Sentai. Super Sentai has been around almost as long as Kamen Rider. Super Sentai was created around 1973 by the same people who created Kamen Rider. This lead to the Series Himitsu Sentai Goranger, and since then, there have been 36 different groups, each with different themes. The series in this series, Gokaiger, came from the series Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger, about a group of space pirates who become the 35th Sentai, while at the same time, using the powers of the 34 sentai before them. Before I go into that in the prologue, Sentai is Japanese for hero team. Sentai are usually humans who transform either with a belt buckle, wrist device, or in some cases, a phone. While there are other ways it is done, let's move on, shall we?

Around 1993, Saban picked up the series Kyoryu Sentai Zyuranger about a group of humans from a bygone age fighting against a witch name Bandora, using mechanized prehistoric beasts to fight the giant monsters she unleashes, and turned it into the series Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers. And yes, I totally riffed Linkara, so I have to give him credit. Thanks, Man. Without you, I would not be able to share this. Now you are in the know, so no complaints.

Now for the synopsis. In this story, which takes place in-between season eight and season nine, Clark faces a different monster each Chapter. The Zangyack Empire has decided to target Smallville for conquest due to the fact that their leader, Wazuru Giru, Crown prince of the empire, is bored. However, following their heels, are the Gokaigers. So, when the two sides meet, it is gonna get really showy, as Captain Marvelous would say.

Now For the VERY important part, the disclaimer. Now since I really need to get at this really quickly, here is Gai, and Clark with the Details.

Gai: "Whoaaa! It's S-" (Sorry about that, but Clark doesn't know about that, yet.)

Clark: "This is a work of fan fiction. The author takes no right of ownership over any of the original characters from the series, Smallville, or Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger. To do so is illegal, and could result in some steep fines, or worse. So please, show some respect. Watch the series yourself."

Exiakaiser: Well said, Clark. Now on with the show. Hope you enjoy it.

Tokusatsu Trilogy

Part 2

Of Pirates and Justice

Prologue: Pirates and red-blue Blurs (Make up your mind, red or blue)

First there was the Legendary War, a great battle fought by the 34 Great Super Sentai Teams, against a fleet of ships belonging to the Zangyack Empire, who saw their lord and master as God. In the final moments of the battle, the 34 Sentai teams sacrificed their powers to defeat the Zangyack, but their powers were lost to the timeless void of space. A few years later, a huge pirate ship was spotted in the skies of earth. In it were five people asking about the universe's greatest treasure. However, the Zangyack forces attacked again. Fortunately for us, these pirates transformed into the 35th Sentai team, the Gokaigers. Then, when they were in a pinch, they showed their special power. They had found the powers of the original 34 Sentai in the form of Ranger keys.

Along the way, they discovered that they need to find the 34 Sentai Grand Powers, special abilities tied to each Sentai team. These Grand powers were only granted by finding the set Sentai member told of by their treasure-navigating robot parrot, Navi. After interacting with the leader, or in some cases a secondary teammate of each Sentai team, they would be forced to face an Action commander, the monsters of the Zangyack Empire. When they received the Grand power, they would use it and win the battle. However, some Sentai, like Carranger (1), did not have a Grand power. Along the way, they met an enthusiastic youth named Gai Ikari. He had been given the powers of the Dead special teammates Time-Fire (2), Abare-Killer (3), and Dragon-Ranger (4), in order to transform into the sixth and final member of the Gokaigers, GokaiSilver.

Each member has a unique attitude and style to bring to the battlefield and to the ship. The Leader of the Gokaigers, aka GokaiRed is a young man named Captain Marvelous. As leader of the Gokaigers, he is usually the first to go to battle. He prefers to fight with both sword and gun. However, he doesn't hesitate to change tactics to fight a villain using the Gokaigers unique tool, the Mobirates to change into what he needs to get the job done. He likes to be a showoff at times, usually using the battle cry of "Let's make it showy" to rally the team before the real battle begins. Outside of battle, he is brash, not afraid to say what he wants, going so far as to call Navi, their navigational computer, a bird. This usually results in Navi getting mad and taking a swoop at Marvelous. He searches fro the greatest treasure of the universe because of a dying request by his former captain, AkaRed.

Joe, aka GokaiBlue, is a cool-headed swordsman, and master at using 2 swords in combat. A man of few words, so to speak, He has a chip on his shoulder against Zangyack because of what the Empire did to his friend. In combat, he will usually switch his gun for Doc's sword and just go all out. Outside of battle, his attitude never changes.

Luca, aka GokaiYellow, likes jewelry, usually going after them by any means available. In battle, she switches weapons with Ahim, preferring swords over guns. Outside of battle, she is very opinionated, tough, and unafraid.

Doc, aka GokaiGreen, is usually not considered a threat by the enemy, and usually ignored. However, sometimes, he can be as much a fighter as the others. In battle, he may seem weak, but he is smart, able to trick many of the enemies into falling into traps or tripwires. Outside of battle, Doc is the cook, and the guy most people confide in, aside from Ahim.

Ahim, aka GokaiPink, was a princess of a very prosperous world, until the Zangyack destroyed her world for standing up to them. She joined the Gokaigers to defend other worlds from the same fate. In combat, she is an excellent marksman, using dual guns to some effect. Outside of combat, she is a person who never shows anger, is a good listener, and always able to calm Luca down.

And last but certainly not least, there is Gai Ikari, aka "GoooooooKaiSilver" (8), the last member of the Gokai Pirates. A simple earthman, Gai is a Super Sentai otaku (5) who was granted the Mobicellular, and the ability to use the massive mecha Gojyudrill, a drill-ship from the future. He represents the sixth member of the Super Sentai. In combat, he is as enthusiastic as he is out of combat, using his trident/gun to deliver amazing attacks. He has a super mode called Gold mode, which allows him to use the finisher called Gokai Legend Dream, which summons the extra members of Super Sentai past, and unleashes them in a massive attack.

Now onto mecha, this is also as important as the characters. First is the Gokai Galleon, Gokaigers means of transportation. It looks like a red sailing ship, and has the Gokaiger symbol on it, which looks like a pair of cutlasses crossed in the shape of an X. Inside it are four vehicles, each resembling a different vehicle. However, when Kaizoku Gattai is called, they combine together to create a giant humanoid mecha called Gokai-Oh. It can use the Ranger Keys the Gokaiger have to unleash different effects, such as a magical dragon, a police car, a combination with a giant mecha lion, a ninja form, and last but not least, its ultimate form, Kanzen Gokai-Oh. This form was only obtained recently after a trip to the Gunman World, one of the many different worlds told of by the Engine Sentai, Go-Onger (6). This form is very powerful.

Next up is the Gojyudrill. It appears to be from the future, maybe also from the same future as Timeranger (7). However, it has abilities that represent the grand powers given to GokaiSilver. The first is the machine itself, coming from the future, due to the grand power of Time Fire, the 6th member of Timeranger. The second ability it its ability to transform into a terrifying monster called GojyuRex, given to GokaiSilver by Abare-Killer. It looks a lot like a Tyrannosaurus Rex. The final ability is the ability to transform, yet again into a humanoid form called GojyuJin. It looks like a human with a drill for a right hand. Its final attack is the Triple Drill Dream, a devastating attack that combines all three forms into one splendid attack.

Alone these six are formidable opponents. Together, they are one of the more powerful Sentai around. Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger, in its element, could be able to defeat any foe.

Clark Kent was just a child when he was shot off into space by his parents to save him from his dying homeworld of Krypton. He was sent to earth, where he was raised by Jonathon and Martha Kent. He learned he had special powers, like super-speed, super-strength, heat vision, super-hearing, x-ray vision, super-breath, as well as near invulnerability. However with each new power came trials and the necessity to learn control. However, after a situation a series of caves, a strange key, and a few rogue kryptonians, Clark is protecting the cities of Metropolis and Smallville as the high-speed Red-Blue Blur. However, after the death of Jimmy Olsen by Davis Bloom, and the defeat of the creature Doomsday, Clark was at a transition phase.

He has seen his share of tragedies. The death of his adoptive father Jonathon Kent was hard on him. Then the disappearance and return of his one-time girlfriend Lana Lang, has made him feel somber for a few days, as has the death of his friend Lex Luthor, now turned enemy. However, he has just gotten over the death of his friend Jimmy Olsen, when he discovers that Lois Lane is missing. Unable to find her, or the Legion Ring given to him from the 30th century, he figured that Lois traveled in time. However he has just caught something in the corner of his eye. As he turns his eyes skyward, he uses his telescopic vision to see a large armada of ships.

Clark is not alone in his fight for justice, as any hero should have allies and friends. Friends like Chloe Sullivan, who knew Clark since childhood. She has gone from nosy school reporter to being an important figure in the superhero community as the all-powerful mind behind Watchtower, which is considered by many to be a beacon of hope in the darkness. However her eyes now turn upward to the sky as many ships start to drop out of light speed.

Friends like Oliver Queen, aka the Green Arrow, who at this point, is going through a tough time because he is starting to doubt himself. He used black kryptonite to sever two beasts apart only to find out, too late that doing so was a big mistake. However as he through his green costume on the ground, he looks up in the sky to see dozen of bright star-like lights.

Friends like Emil Hamilton, a doctor at Metropolis General Hospital. However, that is his legitimate job, as well as informant to watchtower. Dr. Hamilton is Chloe's go-to-guy at the hospital and a reliable source of Intel. However, as he is walking out to his car, he looks up to see dozens of lights in the sky.

And let's not forget about Tess Mercer, the new CEO of Luthorcorp, and the chief editor of the Daily Planet, one of the best-selling papers in the country. She has also helped Clark when he needs it. However, there were times when she was also a source of trouble. A good example was the time she was messing around with a Kryptonian crystal and accidentally brought an alien to earth who caused anyone who had contact with her to have a heart attack. Everyone except Clark for some reason. However, now her eyes turned upward towards the sky.

Meanwhile, in orbit over the Earth….

The Main Zangyack fleet hung over the earth, always ready to attack. At its head was the main ship of the fleet, the Gigant Horse. This ship was grey and had two horse figureheads on its bow. In the center you could see the Crest of Zangyack, the seal of the royal family. Inside sat Wazuru Gils, the crown prince of the empire. On his right stood Barizorg, a Zangyack cyborg and the reason for Joe's grudge. Gils's chief scientist was Inza, who always had a few ideas about how to deal with things. And at his left was his advisor. He is Gils's tactical advisor, and is usually ignored for a more brash response.

As the fleets started to descend on the earth, they were being fired upon, not by jets, but by the GokaiGalleon. Her cannons fired on the ships as they reached the atmosphere, and many of the ships were destroyed in a fiery blaze. Captain Marvelous, as GokaiRed, was piloting the Galleon and ordering commands. "Get ready to bring all cannons to bear," he said as one of the ships decelerated and cleared the atmosphere. As he said this, the gun ports on the ships port side swung open to reveal a row of 20 cannons. At his command, they fired on the ship, destroying it. However, some of the ships were breaking through.

Zangyack ships carry a few weapons. However, their main purpose is troop transport. They carry a troop compliment of over 500 Goumin, the foot soldiers of the Empire, as well as several Sugoumin, their superiors. However, most of the time, Zangyack forces use a Action commander, the monster type. They lead troops and usually represent the boss. However as the action commander for this battle stepped on the ground, it was suddenly picked up by what looked like a red-blue blur. Most of the Goumin were confused when the order to attack was suddenly cut off.

Clark had grabbed what looked like a monster mix-up of parts and weapons, and threw him into a high-tech containment facility at Bell Reeve. He was now racing back when he saw the explosion. He went to investigate, only to see 6 figures, dressed like some kind of pirate, wearing different colors, and they were staring back at him.

The one wearing red spoke up, "Clear out of here. This is pirate business. If you don't want trouble, leave."

Clark looked at the group and had only one thought, "Amateurs", and with that, he fired his heat vision. Not in streams mind you, but in bursts so as to not hurt them too much.

However, the ones wearing blue and yellow stood forward and blocked the shots using their blades. "As he said, unless you are looking for trouble, clear out."

Clark was upset, but was willing to negotiate. At least let me clear out any people here, the structure behind you took a good hit before you got here, so let me do my bit.

GokaiRed, smiled and said, "Relax. We got this." With that he grabbed a strange looking mobile phone. In the other hand he had what looked like a strange key. The Clark heard the group yell out, "GOKAI CHANGE!"

"GOOOGOO FIVE!"

All of a sudden, he saw them in new clothes, looking like the Rescue Sentai GoGo V (9). Their costumes were sleek and form-fitting. On each they had a helmet that was designed to look like a special breathing apparatus. As soon as the change was complete, the pirates rushed in to save the people trapped in the wreck. They managed to do Clark's job for him this time.

As soon as the last person was clear, Clark spoke to GokaiRed. "Thanks, However I hope you don't mind sticking around. I need to ask some questions about you and your crew."

Marvelous, under his helmet smiled. "Thanks," he said, "But maybe another time. I got things to do." With that he jumped onto the GokaiGalleon and it flew off. However Clark knew this was not the end. They would be back soon.

Before I do the author's footnotes, I should explain what is gonna be done here. First is the explanation section. In this section, I explain terms marked with a set of quantified numbers. This can happen very few times, like at the end, or it will happen lot of times like in a battle with many form changes. If you see a word with a set of parentheses surrounding a number following it, it will be explained down here.

Carranger was a parody series of Super Sentai that was about car safety. It was later turned into the series Power Rangers Turbo, which did not do so well.

Time Fire was also known as Quantum Ranger.

Abare-Killer was also known as the White Drago Ranger.

Also known as the Green ranger. Just the Green ranger

Otaku is Japanese for fan

Go-Onger was, like Carranger before it, a parody of Super Sentai. In this series, a group of youths teamed up with sentient vehicles from another world to fight the evil forces of the Gaiark, who intended to pollute our world. It was over the top with it's silliness.

Timeranger was a Sentai from the future. They came to the present to bring back a group of criminals who went back in time to loot and plunder. Also known as Power Rangers Timeforce.

That is how Gai introduces himself. With an extra strength helping of enthusiasm.

GoGo V was a fire and rescue themed Super Sentai who faced off against a race of demons who came back in the year1998. Also called in the US Power Ranger Lightspeed Rescue.

Finally, I finished this first chapter. And what an achievement it is. 3000 + words, now for me that is an achievement. Never did anything like this, so I hope you enjoyed this story's beginning. I know many of you will say that it starts out boring, but come on. There are a lot of people who know Smallville but not Super Sentai, and vice versa. I was merely setting the stage for the rest of the story. That is how I do things.

Now if you would be so kind, please review and let me know what you think. Also anyone with an idea for a monster, please review and let me know what you want me to create. I am sure I could make something out of it.
