Chapter 6: The Liberation of Ogama Part 2
The Slave Drivers raised their whips into the air and sent them cracking down on the pirates. As the whips came down, the Kyoryu Changed Gokaigers leaped into the air and towards the Slave Drivers. As the pirates engaged the Slave Drivers, the nine combatants split up into three groups and battled all through out the facility. Gai and Marvelous took one Slave Driver one way, Don and Ahim took another Slave Driver another way and Joe and Luka took the third Slave Driver in another direction.
First we will follow Marvelous and Gai. As the two engaged their Slave Driver, the Zangyack warrior cracked his whip to try to keep them back but Gai used KyoryuGold's wings to fly past the whip and fired upon the villain with the GabriChanger. As the Slave Driver dodged the golden laser beams, Marvelous came diving in, grabbing the Slave Driver around the neck and judo throw him down. Despite hitting the ground with a great thud, the Slave Driver was able to roll out of the way as Marvelous tried to punch him in the face. However, the Slave Driver was unable to stop Gai's knee from crashing across his' chin. The Slave Driver flew about ten feet backwards before hitting the side of one of the storage houses head first. After pulling himself off of the wall, the Slave Driver was dazed and could do nothing as Gai and Marvelous began to open fire upon him. Using the GabriChanger and Gaburivolver respectively the blast the monster, the captan and cabin boy ran towards their enemy at full speed. Though the Slave Driver was being pummeled by the laser blasts, he was still able to pull himself together and, once the pirates were close enough, swung his whip overhead and cracked it across Marvelous and Gai's chests. Sparks flew from the sternums of Marvelous and Gai as they landed on their backs. With his opponents down, the Slave Driver raised his whip into the air and began to swing it around above his head. As the momentum built up, the whip began to surge with electricity. Once it was fully charged, the Slave Driver swung the whip underhand causing it to drag across the pavement causing it to break apart as the whip made it's way towards Marvelous and Gai. The two pirates only managed to roll out of the way at the very last second.
"So you like playing with electricity." said Gai getting to his feet. "Well then…" Gai then held out his right hand. A small storm cloud formed above his head which was followed up by a golden thunder bolt. The thunder bolt reached down to Gai's hand and the cabin boy grabbed hold of it. One flash of light later, the thunder bolt turned into Zandar Thunder, KyoryuGold's personal weapon. "…I can play with electricity too." Gai then opened up Zandar Thunder and placed two Zyudenchi into the blade. Once he was ready, Gai charged at the Slave Driver with the Zandar Thunder held high. As Gai approached, the Slave Driver swung his still electrically charged whip with at the young pirate. Gai deflected the whip with Zandar Thunder and swung his blade at the villain with a diagonal slash. The Slave Driver dodged the blade and swung his whip at Gai once again only to have it once again be blocked by Gai. The two warriors went back and forth like this for a good two minutes with neither man gaining an upper hand with sparks flying from their weaopans as they continued to clash. At one point, the Slave Drive was able to wrap his whip around one of Gai's ankles and sent him flying into the air. As the Slave Driver put all his attention on Gai, he did not see that Marvelous had equipped himself with the Amred On and summoned the Gabutyra Fang. By the time the Slave Driver saw him, Marvelous had already flown and standing within arms reach on him. Marvelous swung the Fang and punched the Slave Driver in the sternum. As sparks flew from the Zangyack monster's chest, Gai used Zandar Thunder to cut himself free of the whip and then used the bladed to slash the villain on his way back down.
While Gai and Marvelous continued their battle against their Slave Driver, let us see how Joe and Luka are fairing against theirs. Just like the one Gai and Marvelous are facing, this Slave Driver can emit an element from his whip. His element is fire and he was sending one burst after another after Joe and Luka. To counter this, Joe Armored On the Stego Shield, got in front of Luka and blocked the flames. As Joe blocked the fire, Luka Armored On the Parasa Shot, jumped over Joe and blasted the Slave Driver. The Slave Driver stumbled back a bit but quickly regained his footing. Once he was steady again, the Slave Driver reared his arm back and swung his whip towards Luka. The whip wrapped around Luka's neck and began to choke her. Seeing this, Joe ran to Luka's aid but the Slave Driver whipped Luka back towards him so that Joe couldn't reach her. When Luka was all but right in front of him, the Slave Driver placed his right leg back and swung his knee with all his might into Luka's stomach. As Luka keeled over, the Slave Driver began to swing his whip and Luka over head. After three swings, the Slave Driver sent Luka flying towards Joe. Luka hit Joe back first, cross body stile, and the two pirates hit the ground hard. The Slave Driver then set his whip ablaze and sent it flying at the downed pirates. Joe and Luka started to roll out of the way but the when the whip hit the ground, it caused a great explosion sending the two flying in opposite directions. As soon as Joe and Luka hit the ground, the jumped right in the middle of the two and began to whip them, beginning with Joe. However, Joe used the Stego Shield to block the whip and once the whip was out of the way, Joe through the shield to Luka. The bladed edge on the shield's right side slashed the Slave Driver as it passed him. Luka caught the Stego Shield as she got back to her feet and began to run towards the Slave Driver. The set his whip on fire and began cracking it at Luka. Luka used the Stego Shield to block the flames while using the Parasa Shot to blast him. The Slave Driver flipped out of the way of all the laser beams as he continued to crack his whip at Luka. Being stuck in this deadlock with Luka, the Slave Driver completely forgot about Joe but quickly remembered him once the Blue warrior when Joe ran in from the side and slash him with the Gaburicalibur. As the Slave Drive lost his balance but not falling down, Joe would cut him three more time with the Gaburicalibur while Luka jumped over head and blasted the villian as she flipped over head.
As Luka and Joe continue to pumble their Slave Driver, we move on to Don and Ahim who are having a bit of trouble with the third Slave Driver. Don and Ahim had not been able to get anywhere near this Slave Driver as he had been using his whip and elemental powers to send a flurry of ice and snow at the two. Unable to get in close, Don and Ahim pulled out the Gaburu Cannons and began to fire at the Zangyack. Unfortunately their blasts couldn't get passed the large blocks of ice and snowballs the two pirates spent most of the time just dodging the Slave Driver's attacks. After staying in this stalemate for a good five minutes, the Slave Driver decided that enough was enough and began swinging his whip over head and summoned a giant iceberg. "Wh-wh-what is he doing?" asked Don as he fell backwards on his backside in disbelief. Ahim did not respond. The Queen stood her ground and readied herself for what was to come. When the iceberg was big enough, the Slave Driver through it at Ahim and Don with all his might. As the iceberg approached, Ahim Armored On the DriceLance and drilled through the iceberg, breaking it into harmless bits. The Slave Driver was so shocked by this that he didn't even defend himself from Ahim as she cut him five times with the Lance. After the fifth slash, the Slave Driver spiraled to the ground. After hitting the pavement with a great thud, the Slave Driver tried to hit Ahim with his whip but Ahim used the whip to blocked it and then spun the drill around so that the whip was now trapped. Ahim and the Slave Driver engaged in a brief tug of war match for control of the whip before Don Armored on the Zakutor Slasher and cut the whip in half. As the Slave Driver stumbled back, horrified that his whip was destroyed, Don ran in and began to cut the villain with the Slasher. Ahim quickly joined Don and the two began to really lay in on the slashes. After beating down the Zangyack for a couple of seconds, Don and Ahim landed a pair of powerful drop kicks on the Slave Driver that sent him flying backwards.
The Slave Driver flew back a good sixteen feet before landing hard on the ground. As he got staggered back to his feet, the other two Slave Drivers came flying in from behind and landed right on top of the third. The two Slave Drivers rolled off of their comrade and began to help each other to their feet. Once they were back to a vertical basis, the three beaten Slave Drivers found themselves starring down all six Gokaigers. The Zyuden changed pirates were preparing the final strike on the three Zangyack. Gai had loaded a third Pteregordon Zyudenchi into the Zandar Thunder and Marvelous had pulled out a number thirteen Zyudenchi. "Brave In!" cried the captain filling the Zyudenchi with bravery. Marvelous then through the Zyudenchi into the air followed by Marvelous and the other core Gokaigers through their weapons into the air. The five weapons lined up and connected to each other with the Zyudenchi being placed between the Gabutyra Fang and Parasa Shot with the voice of the Kyoryugers crying out "Kentospiker!" With the Kentospiker formed, Don, Joe, Luka and Ahim formed a circle and interlocked their arms together. With the four of them ready, Marvelous jumped up onto their arms and the four pirates launched their captain up to the Kentospiker. "Brave Finish!" cried Marvelous as he through the Kentospiker. "Raiden Zankō!" cried Gai swinging KyoryuGold's blade sending a wave of lightning at the Slave Driverd as the sword cried out "Zaaaaaaaaaandar Thunder!"
Once the Kentospiker and wave of lighning hit the Slave Drivers, it caused a massive explosion that killed two of them. As for the third, he was sent flying a couple of feet away of the pirates.
"How'd that one survive?" asked Luka as she and the other Gokaigers returned to their normal forms.
"Probably just luck." answered Joe.
"Well, his luck is about to run out." said Gai taking out his Anchor Key. "Everyone, leave the rest to me."
"As you wish." said Marvelous crossing his legs and taking a seat on the ground.
"Gokai Change!" cried Gai as he inserted the golden key into the bottom of his Gokai Cellular. "Gokai Silver, GOLD MODE!" cried the phone changing Gai into his battlizer form. Not wasting anymore time, Gai inserted his Ranger Key into his Anchor Spear and readied himself for the final attack. "Final Wave!" cried the Spear spun his weapon around. Soon enough, the images of GoseiKnight, Go-On Gold, Go-On Silver, GaoSilver, MagiShine, BoukenSilver and MegaSilver appeared beside him. "Gokai Legend Dream!" cried Gai as he and the spirits of his Sentai Seniors fired ball of energy at the remaining Slave Driver. But the Gokai Legend Dream was different this time as now, KyoryuGold, ToQ6gou and StarNinger were among the others Sixth Rangers attacking the Slave Driver. As the Slave Driver got back to his feet, he was quickly slashed by the spirits of the sixth rangers in the order of King Ranger, DekaBreak, ShinkenGold, Kibaranger, DragonRanger, Shurikenger, AbareKiller, TimeFire, StarNinger, KyoryuGold and finally ToQ6gou. Lastly, Gai came in a delivered the finally three slashes that caused the last Slaver Driver to explode and die.
Before the Gokaiger's could celebrate their apparent victory, the six were shook by a great rumbling from beneath them. The pavement right under their feet began to crack and crumble apart, forcing the six, with Gai powering down to normal, to jump up to one of the storage buildings. As soon as the pirates landed on one of the buildings, a giant robot emerged from the hole it created. This robot looked like Warz Gill's personal mech the Great Warz. Only this mech was the Great Unagi and belongs to Action Commander Amore Unagi. "Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger!" cried the Action Commander from a loud speaker from his mech. "How dare you continue to terrorize the Zangyack Empire with your thievery. It is low enough that you destroied the home of the royal family but now you lead such lowly miscreants into war aga-" Unagi didn't get to finish his speech as the Gokai Gallon came flying in and blasted the Great Unagi causing the mech to fall. Further more, the other Gokai Machines and GouZyuRex were right behind the ship.
"Alright guys, let's finish this." cried Marvelous. The other Gokaigers nodded and jumped up to their mechs. As Amore Unagi got the Great Unagi back to it's feet, the core Gokaigers began to combine their mechs. Within a matter of seconds, the five Gokai Machines with one and the core pirates called out "Complete! Kaizoku Gattai Gokai-Oh!" As for Gai, he inserted the AbareKiller Key into his control pannel and converted his mech to its third form. The transformation was complete once the voice of the Gokaiger's phones cried out "GouZyuJin!" "And there's one more member of our crew that we want you to meet." said Marvelous as he inserted the Go-On Red Key into his control pannel. Once the key was turned, the compass on the back of GokaiOh spun around and when it stopped, GokaiOh's chest plate opened up and a Formula-1 race car came out and landing in the palm of the Kaizoku mech's hand. After opening the side of the car and inserting the Number 13 Engine Soul into it, the racer car came to life and jumped out of GokaiOh's hand. The race car then grew to three times it's size and thus, the Pirate Engine Machalcon was summoned.
"Bari, Bari!" cried Machalcon as he raced all about the facility. "Hello everyone." said Macalcon. "So, who are we rampaging on now?"
"You will not be rampaging on anyone!" cried Unagi. "I, the great Action Commander Amore Unagi, will deliver the rightious vengeance of the Zangyack Empire upon you insects. So prepare to die." With that said, Unagi opened up the Great Unagi's chest plate and revealed a double plasma laser cannon and fired it upon the three mechs. GokaiOh and GouZyuJin leapt out of the beam's path but Machalcon zoomed right on ahead and got close enough that the beam harmlessly passed over him. "Don't underestimate us, Bari Bari!" cried Machalcon as he began to take flight. Machalcon charged at the villian at top speed but the Great Unagi was able to dodge the Engine's attack. Amore Unagi smuggly believed that he had avoid Machalcon's attack but didn't realize that Machalcon's tail pipes were also laser cannons. "Fool." mocked Machalcon as he blasted the Great Unagi with his Tail Cannons. As the Great Unagi stumbled backwards, GokaiOh leapt in and tried slashing the Great Unagi with one of it's Gokai Ken. However, Amore was able to see GokaiOh coming and move his mech out of the way. Amore would have counter attacked GokaiOh had GouZyuJin not come in from the Great Unagi's right and clothsline it with it's drill hand. With the Great Unagi down, the Gokaigers tried to blast it with GokaiOh's arm cannons but Amore rolled his machine out of the laser's way.
Quickly getting the Great Unagi back up to it's feet, Amore had his mech throw a powerful dropkick to GokaiOh that caused the mighty Sentai Robo to fall down. Once the Great Unagi landed, GouZyuJin through a mighty left punch at it but the Great Unagi aught the fist. Amore thought that he had Gai right where he wanted him, but Gai closed GouZyuRex's mouch around the hand of the Great Unagi trapping the mech. As Amore tried to free his mech from GouZyuRex's mouth, Gai used GouZyuJin's free drill hand and began to drill through Great Unagi's stomach. Sparks flew from Great Unagi as GouZyuJin drilled deeper and deeper into the Zangyack machine. In an act of desperation, Amore powered up and fired the double plasma laser cannon at GouZyuJin at point blank range. Though the plasma beams did manage to create distance between GouZyuJin and the Great Unagi, once they were fired, they sent GouZyuJin flying back so fast that the part of Great Unagi's arm that was caught in GouZyuRex's mouth was ripped right off as GouZyuJin took off. The sight of Great Unagi dismember like that left Amore in a state of shock. A state of shock so great that he did not see Machalcon flying in and ram into the exposed stomach of Great Unagi. As more sparks flew from Great Unagi's stomach, the Gokaigers got GokaiOh up and readied it to attack. Deciding to use the Carranger's greater power, Joe inserted the Blue Racer Ranger Key into his control pannel and GokaiOh slashed Great Unagi with the Gokai Racing Slash. Once GokaiOh passed the Zangyack mech, Gai got GouZyuJin back up on its feet and inserted the Kuro Kishi Ranger Key into his control pannel and hit the Great Unagi with the GouZyu Eidan.
Having taken heavy damage, the Great Unagi fell to the ground with tremendous force. Inside of the mech's cockpit, Amore Unagi found himself at the pirates mercy. "Da-damn you…Gokaiger!" said the infuriated Action Commander. "You will die! You and all who dare stand in the way of the Zangyack Empire's conquest of the universe! You will all die!"
"I don't know if you've noticed," began Marvelous "but the Zangyack Empire's reign has come to end."
"And we, the Amry of New Famille, will usher in a new reign of peace and justice through out universe and beyond." added Ahim.
"New Famille?" said Amore. But he didn't have time to ponder that thought any further as the Gokaiers inserted their Ranger Keys into their Control pannels and turned them. Within a matter of seconds, GokaiOh, GouZyuJin and Machalcon combined and formed Kanzen GokaiOh. "No!" cried Unagi upon seeing the ultimate combination of the Kaizoku Sentai. "No! No! No! No! No! I will not be killed by you worms!" Amore stood Great Unagi up and prepared to fire the plasam cannons again. But he was was not fast enough as the Gokaigers called out "Gokai Kanzen Burst!" and fired the left hand of their ultimate mech at the weakened Zangyack mech. The fist flew right through the gapping hole in Great Unagi's stomach caused the plasama cannons to malfunction. "AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH! GRAND DUTCHESS! I HAVE FAILED YOU!" cried Amore Unagi as Great Unagi fell to the ground and exploded, killing the Action Commander in the process.
As the Gokaigers celebrated there victory over Amore Unagi, they noticed serveral New Famille ships flying in from the distance. The pirates made contact with the ships and Mai appeared on the Kanzen's main moniter. "How did your raid go Lieutenant?" asked Ahim.
"It was a complete success, your Majesty." said Mai with a salute. "We rescued all the prisoners and destroyed all the Gormin."
"Were there anymore loses?" asked Don.
"Only on the Zangyack's side." replied Mai. "All the rescued slaves have boarded our shuttles and are now flying back home for medical attention."
"Very good." said Ahim.
"Is there anything else we can do for you, your Highness?" asked Mai.
"Yes. Have all available ships and personal come to this location and help us raid this facility of its treasures. Once we are done here, we shall return home. I believe we have done enough damage to the Zangyack Empire for one day." said Ahim.
"Yes Maim." Said Mai ending communications with the Gokaigers.
With the screen blank, Ahim sat back in her chair and let out a relaxing sigh. Her rest was short lived as in the corner of her eye, she could see her teammates starring right at her, their helmets hiding the smiles streched across their faces. Even Joe was smiling under his helmet. "What is it everyone?" asked the Queen.
"Look at you acting all leader like." said Luka.
"Well, I am the Queen after all." said a confident Ahim.
"And what was that right now?" asked Gai in a teasing voice. "Have you finally broken out of your shell Ahim-san?"
"Well…" said Ahim rubbing the back of her head blushing under her helmet.
"You shouldn't be embraced Ahim." said Marvelous. "You have always had that strength inside of you. It's nice to see it finally come out."
For a brief, tender moment in time Marvelous and Ahim looked at one another, their eyes piercing through their visors and looking directly into the others soul. And I mean it was a brief moment in time because Joe broke it up by saying "Is that the only thing finally showing itself, Marvelous?"
"Uh-what-I-uh." said Marvelous snapping back to reality. Marvelous couldn't see it but he knew that Joe, Don, Gai and Luka were now all looking at him with cheeky smiles on their faces. "Wha-what are you all starring at?" asked Marvelous trying to regain his composer. "We have work to finish up here. Well…come on….hop to it." Marvelous then got up and walked out of the cockpit.
Once Marvelous was gone, Joe, Gai, Luka and Don let out small laughs at how they finally caught Marvelous breaking away from his stick in the mud act. As they got up to leave the cockpit, Don turned to Ahim and put his hand on her shoulder. "Hang in there Ahim. Marvelous is bound to break one of these days."
Ahim pretended to not understand what Don was talking about and just sat in her chair as her teammates walked out of the cockpit one after the other. Once her was all alone in the cockpit she began to think back to what her uncle told her on her coronation. "Is it true Marvelous-san? Do you really feel the same way I feel about you?" Ahim then clenched her hands together and placed held them to her chest and looked up to the ceiling. "Oh please tell me it is true!"
Sorry for the dely. Sometimes it's hard to get motivated again after taking a break. I hope you enjoyed the chapter.
