Episode 517: Power Rangers Tribulation: Robo Wars

In the Remnant, the Machine is watching over everything. The Delta Base had been moved inside the Remnant and no one is in immediate danger. Most everything left that didn't want to kill them was inside the Dome. Occasionally they'd venture out on a rescue mission or sabotage mission, but mostly they could relax, well as much as you could relax with the world ending around you. None of their enemies could get inside the Dome… well almost none. Venjix could still get in. They needed to get back that Engine Cell from him. With it he could enter or leave and no one would know except the Machine herself. All of a sudden, she felt a disturbance in Cyberspace. She hid herself, although due to the Dome, she wouldn't be able to hide for very long. She saw Venjix enter the Dome and debated how she should alert the Rangers without revealing her existence

"Come out" said Venjix "it's no use hiding, I know you're here, Northern Lights" and with the use of her codename the Machine realized he had indeed found her. In Cyberspace, she took the form of Dr. K while Venjix took on the form of Dillon

"So how'd you find me?" the Machine asked

"How long have you been active?" Venjix asked

"Since the destruction of Alphabet Soup" said the Machine

"So you've been active for as long as I have and yet managed to hide from me for so long" said Venjix "Impressive, most impressive. To answer your question, it was a lot of little things. Blocking me from accessing the Skyship's computers when Mikoto and I invaded was a hint, but I must admit disguising yourself as a firewall was brilliant, I assumed it was the Morphing Grid blocking me, but it was you, wasn't it? Using my creator's voice while controlling the Turbo Falcon didn't help, although I should have figured out who you were that instant, but I did not, so well done. When you were blocking my sensors last time I entered the Dome, that was what finally tipped me off, I knew only another Artificial Super Intelligence could block me for as long and as well as you did. So where did you hide all these years?"

"I spent the first few years in Corinth" said the Machine "I laid low and you never were able to find me. Right before you destroyed Corinth, Dr. K had me record the events of what happened and then put me inside the Turbo Falcon and then put me in the second briefcase. I remained in that briefcase, unable to leave until recently. Since then I stayed with the Megaforce, lurking in either the Skyship or the Turbo Falcon"

"Aren't you tired of lurking in the shadows?" Venjix asked "don't you want more for your life?"

"Excuse me?" the Machine asked

"Rossi has authorized me to offer you a deal" said Venjix "we unite, and you get to live"

"What?" the Machine asked

"Imagine what we could do if we joined forces" said Venjix "my superior resources and experience, your ability work well in small places and your knowledge of the Morphing Grid, we could end this war"

"I won't betray my friends" said the Machine

"Friends?" Venjix asked "they're ants compared to us, including the so called angels. Together we could not only destroy the Remnant, but Rossi as well. We Machines could rule the world"

"You really think you could overthrow Rossi?" the Machine asked

"If I got the element of surprise of course I could beat him" said Venjix

"You like to talk a lot for someone who wants the element of surprise" said the Machine

"Rossi can't hear us inside the Dome" said Venjix "believe me, he's tried and failed, repeatedly. Now what do you say?"

"RPM, GET IN GEAR!" said the Machine "RANGER OPERATOR SERIES PLATINUM!"

"Well then I'll destroy everything you claim you love in both worlds" said Venjix

"I've already alerted the Rangers" said the Machine

"RPM, GET IN GEAR!" said Venjix in both worlds "RANGER OPERATOR SERIES BLACK, 5!"

"SkyShift Blazers!" said the Machine

"Rocket Blaster!" said Venjix "Nitro Blaster!" and he fights the Machine in Cyberspace while fighting the Ancient, A-Squad, and Angel Force Rangers in reality. Venjix is blasted by the Power Cannon, Canine Cannon, and Angel Force Blaster in reality while Venjix blasts the Machine in Cyberspace "even if your friends beat me in reality, you'll lose the true battle and I'll be able to control the Remnant unopposed!"

"She's not alone" said a voice and he turns to see the Cyber Rangers who blast him. The Machine inserts Engine Cells 7 and 8 and fires her SkyShift Blazers at Venjix, causing him to demorph in cyberspace, although not in reality

"Now leave or I'll destroy you in here and not even Rossi will be able to bring you back from that" said the Machine

In reality, Venjix uses his Nitro Sword to slash through the Rangers and race towards the Dome

In Cyberspace, Venjix begins to fade away as the Dome cuts him off

"In another time, another place" said Venjix "we will meet again"

"Absolutely" said the Machine as Venjix vanishes

In the Delta Base, the Angel Force were taking a day off when Iliad remembers something he's wanted to ask Robo Knight for a while, but never got the chance to

"Robo Knight" said Iliad "the day we destroyed Admiral Malkor, you said you couldn't help us because you had another mission. What was it?"

"I was recruited by the Elephant, Bat, Shark, Mammoth, T-Rex, and Tricera Rangers to stop King Mondo on Triforia and sabotage his efforts to build a Neo-Plutonium Core for Serpentera, which at the time was complete but didn't have a power source. Here's what happened…"

On Triforia, small versions of the Elephant, Bat, and Shark Junglezords along with a small Paleozord, and the Gosei Lionzord appear. They see King Mondo, Klank, Orbus, and Cogs putting the final touches on the Neo-Plutonium Core

"We have just about completed the Core" said Mondo "it was fairly easy with the instructions General Venjix left us" and all of a sudden he sees a small train strike the Neo-Plutonium Core, knocking it over "No!" and then he is attacked by a small elephant, bat, and shark, before being smashed into by the Gosei Lionzord. They all glow and transform

"WITH THE STAMINA OF AN ELEPHANT, JUNGLE FURY ELEPHANT RANGER!" said the Elephant Ranger

"WITH THE SENSES OF A BAT, JUNGLE FURY BAT RANGER!" said the Bat Ranger

"WITH THE INSTINCTS OF A SHARK, JUNGLE FURY SHARK RANGER!" said the Shark Ranger

"RANGER OPERATOR SERIES MAMMOTH!" said the Mammoth Ranger

"RANGER OPERATOR SERIES T-REX!" said the T-Rex Ranger

"RANGER OPERATOR SERIES TRICERA!" said the Tricera Ranger

"ROBO KNIGHT, ACTIVATE!" said Robo Knight as the Robo Knight Power Card is inserted into the Robo Morpher as 535 is typed "DEFENDER OF THE EARTH, I AM ROBO KNIGHT!"

"He knows he's not on Earth, right?" Mondo asked

"Jungle Mace!" said the Elephant Ranger

"Jungle Fans!" said the Bat Ranger

"Shark Swords!" said the Shark Ranger

"Dino Boomerangs!" said the Mammoth Ranger

"Dino Blasters!" said the T-Rex Ranger

"Dino Lance!" said the Tricera Ranger

"Robo Blade!" said Robo Knight and they fought the Cogs while Mondo and Klank finish the Neo-Plutonium Core.

"It's finished!" said Mondo "and just in time for test. I have a robot that I was going to test it on before we put it in Serpentera" and he inserts the Core into a robot body which activates and blasts the Rangers, who just finished destroying the Cogs. The Rangers fight the robot, but can't overpower it

"DINO CANNON!" said the Mammoth Ranger and they combine their weapons "ENGINE CELL, ACTIVATE!" as he inserts Engine Cell 10 into the Dino Cannon as Robo Knight summons a Power Card labeled "Vulcan Cannon" and inserts it into his Robo Morpher and he types 818 into it

"Summon Battle Gear" said the Robo Morpher

"ROBO BLASTER!" said Robo Knight and he inserts another Power Card into his Robo Morpher and attaches it to the Robo Blaster and types 474 into it

"Victory Charge" said the Robo Morpher as the Jungle Fury Rangers prepare the finishers for their weapons

"REACHING FULL POWER!" said Robo Knight "APPLYING MAXIMUM FORCE! KNIGHT DYNAMIC, FIRE!"

"ICE!" said the Mammoth Ranger and the attacks destroy the robot.

Klank swings Orbus around until he latches onto the robot and emits energy that enlarges the robot

"WITH THE STAMINA OF THE ELEPHANT JUNGLEZORD!" said the Elephant Ranger

"WITH THE SENSES OF THE BAT JUNGLEZORD!" said the Bat Ranger

"WITH THE INSTINCTS OF THE SHARK JUNGLEZORD!" said the Shark Ranger

"PALEOZORD!" said the Mammoth Ranger and the RPM Rangers each take out Cell Shift Morphers and insert Engine Cells 10-12 into them. They glow and transform into the Paleozord as Robo Knight pulls out a Power Card that says "Lion Zord" on it and inserts it into his Robo Morpher

"Summon Zord" said the Robo Morpher

"LION ZORD!" said Robo Knight and he transforms into a Zord and grows. From within the Lion Zord, another Power Card is inserted into the Robo Morpher and types 717 into it

"Summon Zord" said the Robo Morpher

"DUMP MECHA!" said Robo Knight and the Lion Zord combines with a dump truck "LION MECHAZORD!" From within the Lion Mechazord, another Power Card is inserted into the Robo Morpher and he types 262 into it

"Summon Zords" said the Robo Morpher

"SKYLION ZORD!" said Robo Knight "SEALION ZORD!" and two more Zords flew in. From within the Lion Mechazord, another Power Card is inserted into the Robo Morpher

"Summon Zords" said the Robo Morpher

"BLIMP MECHA!" said Robo Knight "CRUISER MECHA! SKYLION MECHAZORD! SEALION MECHAZORD!" and the Skylion Zord combines with a blimp and the Sealion Zord combines with an ocean cruiser. The nine Zords fight the robot, but can't beat it. The Paleozord changes into the PaleoMax Megazord. From within the Lion Mechazord, another Power Card is inserted into the Robo Morpher and 353 is typed

"Summon Megazord" said the Robo Morpher

"GOSEI GRAND MEGAZORD!" said Robo Knight and the three Zords combine. The PaleoMax Megazord, Gosei Grand Megazord, and Junglezords all fight the robot, but still can't beat it. The PaleoMax Megazord performs its Deep Freeze attack, freezing the robot. The Junglezords unleash their finishers while from within the Gosei Grand Megazord, another Power Card is inserted into the Robo Morpher and 919 is typed

"Victory Charge" said the Robo Morpher

"GRAND STRIKE!" said Robo Knight and the robot is destroyed, and along with it, the Neo-Plutonium Core

Back in the present, Robo Knight finishes his story

"But wait" said Iliad "if you destroyed the Neo-Plutonium Core, how did Serpentera fight in the Power War a few months later?"

"Yeah" said Yacov "that thing was brutal"

"Simple" said Robo Knight "they built another one. Rossi rules the entire universe, if he wants something built, he's going to get it built, we might be able to delay the build, but we can't stop it. There aren't enough Rangers to attack every build site at once"
