"NOBITA!" Shizuka shouts as she tears up, she was so happy to see especially him that she tried to go towards him but Katami grabs her ropes so she doesn't get away from her. The entire squad begins to run at Mia's signal, and began to shoot the rays to paralyze the soldiers while approaching the platform, with the agility and speed that the mechanical legs give him, Seiya places neutralizers in the armor, making them become unusable and fall off, leaving a leather uniform, also taking the opportunity for Melia to hit the soldiers to leave them unconscious.
While Mia and Hikaru used their ray guns, Doraemon takes out his air cannon to hit the giant mechanical spiders that were approaching the civilians, also taking out the Anywhere Door to go straight to Situs Hospital "Quick, get in here!".
Nobita uses the special guns to hit soldiers right in their weak points to immobilize them quickly and effectively. All his classmates see how the boy who was the slow and weak one months ago was fighting to save them, including Suneo and Gian who are surprised to see a completely more agile and faster version of the boy that they spent trampling and humiliating, for Nobita only cares about one thing and that was saving those who were on the stage, especially the person he loved.
The silly boy passes by his parents and when they notice him they stop him with Nobisuke grabbing his arm "Nobita, wait!"
"Dad, mom!" Doraemon also approaches them "I have to go save Shizuka!" Nobita says with a determined face.
"What have you been doing?! Why are you wearing that suit over your clothes? And those weapons?! What does this mean?" Tamako asks nervously watching her son fight.
"I-I don't have time, I have to save Shizuka and Dekisugi, they are still in the Baron's hands! I can't explain it too much because of time, but Doraemon and I have been in a team this whole time to stop the Baron, I decided to enter to this mission because I want to free everyone from that man and Doraemon accompanies me in this!"
The Nobis are surprised by that confession "WHAT?!" they shout at the same time.
"This thing you two are doing is very dangerous, Nobita!" The boy's mother also grabs his arm with an upset tone of voice as if scolding him in the old days "Why didn't you tell us any of this?! You can't go there and risk your life against those people, you can't choose to do this kind of thing without consulting us first! You're just a kid! You can't get into this kind of situation, you almost died 4 months ago!" Mrs. Nobi was a mixture of fear and annoyance that her son was hiding something so risky from her.
Nobita shows a sad face and lowers his head while the battlefield did not change "I-I'm sorry for hiding this from you, but when I found out that I could help stop someone who hurt us so much, I felt inside me that I had to do it. I... I didn't tell you about the mission because I didn't want you to worry about me anymore... We had left the hospital and we all had such a bad time that I didn't want to give you another time of nerves and fear, besides, I knew you weren't going to let me participate no matter how much I asked."
The silly boy had gone from determination to breaking his voice with all the mix of emotions he had. His parents stood up and looked at him worried, and although they were somewhat upset by the lie, they could see the sincerity of why he hid something so crucial from them. "Sorry for lying to you, you have every right to get angry and scold me." The boy wipes his tears and returns to his determined face, his goal of saving his friends and ending the tyranny of a terrorist in iron armor was keeping him strong.
"But now I have to do this, I only ask you not to blame my decisions on Mr. Hirano or Doraemon. Seiya and Melia's dad was the one who told me about the plan. I wanted to get into this mission! Mr. Hirano told me not to do it but I insisted on being in the program, and Doraemon is there to support me... Please, I must do this, I won't be able to rest easy until this has a happy ending. I don't want to suffer anymore or hear people suffer, in the hospital I've had enough of hearing moans and cries. That's why I want to help put an end to the Baron's abuse. Please, please, let me do this, I promise I'll be fine."
"I'm going to protect Nobita, he's my best buddy and like I said that day when we were in the hospital, I won't let go of him, it's my job after all!" Doraemon smiles at his pal "And also because he means a lot to me as much as you do."
The couple looks at each other and the first one to let go of the boy's arm is Nobisuke "But dad" Tamako says surprised.
"You've matured a lot, Nobita. I don't know if it had to do with the incident that almost took you away from us, but you're seeing the world differently now. We're really shocked that you kept what you were doing from us, but you are doing it for the right reasons" Nobisuke adjusts his son's cap while smiling "Your grandma would be proud that you want to do it so that there is no more suffering"
Tamako has a long face, after all, she was about to let her son take a chance on something serious, but the look in the boy's eyes made her think that maybe he did have to do this, she just lets out a tired sigh. "Promise me that you will be careful and that you will return safely, I'm upset that you have hidden something that put your own life at risk. But your father is right, you are doing it for the right reasons." The woman just lets her son's arm go and gives him a hug, just like his father.
Feeling the warmth of his family, Nobita smiles with a tear coming out. "I'll be back, thank you for letting me finish this." The silly boy separates from them while Doraemon approaches, taking out his takecopter. "Thank you for being with me, friend, that's really how I don't lose my sanity."
"You really have grown, but you haven't left aside that way of worrying about other people's feelings, after all that also makes you Nobita, and that's what I like the most about you." They both smile at each other, the boy of glasses put on his takecopter and look at his parents "There is the Anywhere Door, it will take you to the Situs Hospital, please stay there, we will take care of this"
The Nobis nod and both approach the Anywhere Door to pass through there, with a worried but proud look, Tamako and Nobisuke turn to see how the pair begin to fly away, to finally pass completely to enter the Situs Hospital where the vast majority of civilians were already being cared for.
Seeing himself at a great disadvantage, Baron Kurai threatens to shoot Dekisugi to try to prevent Nobita from getting any closer to him, but the boy quickly manages to disarm him by shooting him in the hand, although he received no damage from having the armor, the villain can't help but growl at that. "Drop down!" Dekisugi and Shizuka crouch down at the command of Doraemon who hits Katami with a blow of air right in her chest to make her fall on the platform "Get out of there, quickly!"
"Come on Shizuka!" Although with his hands tied, Dekisugi stands behind Shizuka to avoid any harm, but the Baron grabs the smart boy and pushes him off the platform, although since Melia was close by he manages to catch him since it was a bit of a high place. The Baron grabs the girl with the pigtails by the rope, preventing her from escaping from him.
"You're coming with me, if Heartbreaker wants to challenge his creator, I'm not going to make it easy for him! Katami!"
The Baron's right hand stands in front of them smiling "Maybe you disabled the bombs we brought on the airships! But I still have mine!" A rain of bombs is launched by Katami towards Nobita, Doraemon, Dekisugi and Melia, so they had no choice but to use another shield activating them at the same time, Melia stands in front of Dekisugi to protect him. The bombs manage to explode, releasing more smoke than there was from the confrontation in the steam city.
"Guys!" She shouts Shizuka as she is carried by the Baron towards one of the robotic spiders that had stopped there on the villain's order.
As expected, the guys were fine, with a few bruises but the shield did its job, although now they only had one shield left to use. "Are you okay Dekisugi?" Doraemon asks who was untying him, to which the boy nods.
Nobita looks everywhere, neither Shizuka nor the Baron were on the stage "Where is Shizuka?!"
Suneo and Gian who were hiding in an alley near the stage look at what was happening, it seemed that they didn't want to leave like the others "I'm not surprised that Nobita is related to all this, there are always problems when he is around and everyone took me for crazy" Says the dwarf, scared and irritated.
The robust one, although he still didn't sympathize with the silly boy, also looks everywhere until he notices something when looking up and also notices how a soldier had charged his electric mallet and was going to throw it at Dekisugi, so he comes out of hiding "Gian, wait, those crazy people are going to hurt you!" Suneo yells at him but Gian ignores him, managing to attack the soldier who is electrocuted because his own mallet touched his head with the attack, Dekisugi and the others notice this, being surprised, especially Nobita.
"Goda, you helped me." The smart boy was confused but immediately smiles "Thank you"
"I'm just... looking for some limelight" Gian says somewhat embarrassed but pretending that he didn't do it out of good will, scratching his nose, then he looks at the silly boy "Nobita, look up at the apartment building!"
Everyone turns to look in the direction that Gian said: One of the mechanical spiders was climbing the building, and since it's usually piloted by someone inside, there was Baron Kurai who was taking the girl with the pigtails inside the mechanical robot.
"I think they are going directly to his black airship that is flying over the building, possibly he is using Shizuka as a hostage so he can reach his ship and escape" Shizuka's parents who were also close by because they didn't want to take refuge due to concern for her daughter, are horrified by what Melia said. The mayor and the committee also left there to stay safe but were nearby to observe the confrontation.
Nobita tries to fly up there, but Katami shoots him with her ray gun, which although it didn't hurt him directly because of the suit, he felt a little pain from the impacts. "Don't think you've won, Heartbreaker! Although I fall, the Baron will return again to fulfill our objectives, just as he did 50 years ago! You could have been part of a great plan, a life of power, but you chose the weak over your creator, you damn traitorous brat! I won't let you ruin this for us!" There were still 4 mechanical spiders and some soldiers approaching to support Katami, since 7 were disabled by Seiya and the special forces and one was being used by the Baron.
"You can't call me a traitor if I've never sided with him, let me pass, I must save Shizuka!" Says the heartbroken boy, which bothers the bomber woman the most.
But Mia, Seiya and Hikaru who realized that, approach to also confront the mechanical spiders "Hey you two! Help, it's an order!" Mia says that to Dekisugi and Gian and then throws a couple of ray guns at him, the smart boy without hesitation agrees to help against the soldiers, and although Gian wasn't comfortable with helping Nobita, he was going to do it anyway because his thoughts were still altered by the words that the orange-haired mechanic said to him 2 months ago.
Doraemon flies towards the clumsy boy "We'll take care of Katami and the remaining henchmen, you go save Shizuka, good luck!"
Nobita nods and flies upwards, Katami shoots him again but Doraemon gets in the way, receiving the lightning, but in the part of the suit to avoid damage, pointing his air cannon at her, the bomber woman smiles "But it's the second-hand robot, when the baron wins, I'll make sure to turn you into scrap metal, and also teach Heartbreaker a lesson. That brat needs a couple more slaps before he dies, you don't know how much I enjoyed watching him cry for you a while ago."
Doraemon growls because he knew she was provoking him with that last bit. "We have a pending account for forcing my automatic shutdown." The mechanical cat casts an annoyed and threatening look at the woman. "And for hurting my best buddy."
While the STEAM Squadron and with an extra pair of hands helped to finish neutralizing the threats, Nobita flies away seeing that the spider stops on the roof of the building, as it was too big to enter the command room of the airship, it had to stay there. The Baron goes down with Shizuka and begins to pull her towards the ladder of the airship, watching as the rest of the airships end up crashing on the outskirts of the walls of Sutirushiti due to the saboteurs "Walk quickly, I'll take you with me and you will be my hostage for a while, I'll find a place to take refuge and I will start again, you will be my life insurance to prevent me from being hurt, at least until the special forces stop looking for me. Then I'll leave you in the desert where no one can survive."
The Baron pulls out a gear-shaped control, presses it, and instantly the balloon portion of the airship releases, revealing the transport's true shape.
A flying ship with large spinning propellers, which made it faster now. Everything seemed to indicate that the Baron would manage to escape once again, but someone was heard landing and when they turned around, they both looked at how the little mechanical disaster had arrived and was a few meters away from them. "Nobita!" Shouts a distraught Shizuka who was still trying to free herself from the ropes.
The Baron notices how the boy looks at him defiantly, so he turns towards him while the mechanical spider was already preparing to confront him as well. "You really have been a very annoying person, Heartbreaker. If you were a smart boy, you would let me go, after all, it's because of me that you continue living, you owe me"
"I don't owe you anything, no matter how much the engine was your idea, I was the one who decided to stop you and your plans to hurt the people I love. Months ago I decided not to be Heartbreaker, I decided to be Nobita. And I won't let you take Shizuka!"
The boy's words make his friend happy while you can hear how the Baron lets out a confident chuckle "If you want to save the girl so much..." The spider jumps to get between the jet and his master. "THEN TRY IT"
