The news of Medabots Corporation being robbed and the attack on downtown Tokyo has spread all over Japan, this was the attack that no one had ever expected to happen. How come two Landmotors were able to breach the most secure place in Japan and make the city instantly become chaos in one day? How do they all have an advanced and deadly weapon? Why did they steal the Rare Medals? The citizens of Tokyo are on high alert for responding to this news, they're afraid that the event Ten Days of Darkness is happening again and Medabots have gone berserk, the day that they never forget and are still afraid to this day. The Governor of Tokyo already contacted the Select Corps to immediately secure the city and capture any possible rogue Medabots that still roaming around the city.
The Next day, the news is getting more spread throughout the city, especially to schools around Tokyo. One of the schools that really got "hyped" from hearing this news was the Riverview Junior High School, the time now shows 12:00 PM which is a lunch/break time for the students. Instead of going to the cafeteria or having a battle during this time, most of the students are rushing to the hallway where the school bulletin board already has news/articles about the chaos in Downtown Tokyo yesterday and a big mysterious guy who saved the city by destroying the Rogue Landmotor.
"Whoah that big guy is amazing!!" Said one of the students who saw the article picturing a big muscle guy smashing the rogue Landmotor to the ground.
"Is he American?" Added another female student.
"What kind of vehicle is that? So cool!" Said one of the students who saw an article picturing the big muscle guy driving some kind of grey sports vehicle.
"He's so cool!!
"Yeah, man!!"
"My hero!!"
Many students who read the article are immediately mesmerized by this mysterious muscle guy who saves the city from chaos by rogue Landmotor.
"Are you all already like my scoop of the day?" Suddenly a female voice came from their back.
"Erika? You write all of this amazing article?" One student asked
It was Erika Amazake who wrote all of this news article for the School Bulletin Board, she's a member of the journalism club of her school. Erika is also the reporter for the school's newspaper, the Riverview Review, she will do anything for a scoop and always looking for amazing stories. Yesterday was her lucky day, she found a scoop about a mysterious big guy who saved the city from the rogue Landmotor attack.
"Yes it was me, I always find a great scoop and write the truth behind the stories!!" Erika said with a proud face of her hard work.
"Whoaahh you're amazing Erika!!" Said one of the students praised her.
The rest of the students who still gathering around the school board bulletin giving Erika credit and praise for her scoop, until……….
"OUT OF THE WAY!! OUT OF THE WAY!!!"
"WHAT IS IT?! HEY WAIT UP IKKI!!"
Suddenly two voices came from behind, it was a boy wearing a red shirt with a long neck, blue shorts, marooned-crème shoes, and he had black hair with a short ponytail on it. The second voice came from an old model yellow Kabuto Type Medabot, they both rushed to the front row of many students who still standing next to the school board bulletin. Some of the students are getting pissed when got hit by this rushing kid, along with his Medabot.
"Whooaaaahh!! What's this?!" The boy got excited and shocked after he saw Erika's news article
"Ikki Tenryou!! Have heard about patience?!" Erika suddenly got pissed with Ikki's behavior.
"Sorry Erika, I was so excited and thought this was an announcement about the next World Robattle Championship next year, hehe," Ikki said with an embarrassed face, then he continued. "Anyway, where did you get this photo, and who is this big guy?"
"Yesterday I was strolling around downtown with Brass when suddenly there was a big explosion ahead. At first, we both got scared of it, but my instinct told me this was a big scoop that I shouldn't missed. Turns out, we saw a big guy with huge muscles fighting with a Landmotor that gone berserk!!" Erika told her story with a joyed face, and then she continued. "This is my opportunity and Brass to take a picture then make it as a scoop of the day!!"
"Hold on, a Landmotor going berserk?!" Ikki was shocked to hear that word, although he wasn't born yet when the Ten Days of Darkness happened, his encounter with evil Dr. Meta Evil a few years ago made him knew of how scary and awful that day was. "And you risking your life just to get this picture in the middle of a deadly battle?! Are you crazy Erika?!"
"Hey!! At least everyone in here loves the scoop I just wrote! Isn't that right fellas?" Erika said
All of the students nearby immediately shouted with joyed faces knowing they all liked the news article. Then a yellow Medabot approaching the student bulletin board then saw the article that Erika made.
"Hmmhh…….this kind remind me of something." The yellow Medabot said while looking the picture on the article, a man with big muscle, fighting with a rogue Medabot face to face, driving a cool looking sports car. "Hey!! It reminds me of O O Seven movies that I've seen before!!"
"What Metabee?" Ikki said to his Medabot right next to him.
"The O O Seven movies!! Where the hotshot is driving a cool spy car with awesome gadgets and full of action scenes!!" Metabee said
"It's Double O Seven, you moron! Wait….since when do you watch that kind of movie?!" Ikki now started to get pissed at his Medabot
"Since I started acting like a grown-up Medabot, not like you!!" Metabee throws an angry glare toward his "master".
"What do you say?! I'm twelve years old!!"
"Oh yeah?! Then why do you always spend your allowance to buy useless girl music albums instead of studying or buying me new parts?! So who's the grown-up now huh?!
"YOU STILL SHORT AND BIG MOUTH FOR A MEDABOT!!"
"WHY YOU!!" Both Ikki and Metabee almost got into a fight but were immediately stopped by Erika just in time.
"Both of you, KNOCK IT OFF!!" Erika said after separating Ikki and Metabee. "It doesn't matter who that big guy was, he literally saved our city from a berserk Medabot!!"
"But what if he was a double agent?" Suddenly a male voice approached them
"Huh?" Both Ikki and Metabee look toward the voice direction.
"Zumi?! You're investigate this thing too?!" Erika shocked to see one of her friend also her news archrival at school Zumi were chasing the same scoop as Erika.
"You missed something really important in your scoop Erika………these photos," Zumi said by showing the photo of his article on the other student bulletin board nearby.
Ikki, Metabee, Erika, and the other students approach the other student bulletin board where Zumi displayed his news article, when they read the articles, all of them are shocked with disbelief.
"WHAT?!"
"NO…IT CAN'T BE!!"
"HE'S A BAD GUY?!"
"BOOOOOO!!!"
Turns out, the photo shows the big muscle guy took a white sack from the Landmotor's wrist, the next photo shows the big muscle guy are about to give the white sack to the Phantom Renegade but was cut out by member Select Corps surrounding them, and the last photo shows the big muscle guy steal the white sack then chased by the Select Corps before escaping with his strange sports vehicle.
"OH MY!! How do I forget about this?!" Erika was shocked, it was true both Erika and Zumi were in the location when the incident happened although they didn't meet each other directly, the difference thing is Erika's article shows the photo of the big muscle guy fighting and destroying the Rogue Medabot, indicating that he was a hero who just saved the city from chaos, while Zumi on his article shows that the big muscle guy is stealing something from the Rogue Landmotor's wrist then took it for himself and now are on Select Corps wanted list along with Phantom Renegade, indicated that he was a bad guy or a double agent.
"Wait!! I was there yesterday!! We saw Phantom Renegade too, maybe he wanted whatever is inside that sack for not fall into wrong hands!! Isn't that right Brass?" Erika continued and belief what she saw along with her Medabot ayesterday was true.
"Yes…it was true Ms. Erika." Said her Medabot which is a Sailor-Multi that Erika named Brass who standing right next to her.
"Then why he's on Select Corps most wanted list according to my sources? Surely he was committed to something that has to do with the Rogue Medabot." Zumi said with his belief.
YEAH!!" Some of the students agreed with what Zumi just said.
"Look Zumi, you used to help me uncover the truth behind a fake broadcast that Extreme Tech used to frame Metabee, why are you suddenly turning back on me again?!" Erika was disappointed in her friend.
"I'm not turning back on you Erika!! I just want to tell the truth about this scoop!" Zumi said with a loud tone
"The truth?! What if he was a good guy who tried to save this city from another Rogue Medabot attack?!
"And what if he was a double agent who saved this city just to steal whatever that Rogue Medabot has for his own purpose?!"
"He's a GOOD GUY!!" Erika shouted to Zumi
"DOUBLE AGENT!!" Zumi shouted back to Erika
"GOOD GUY!!!"
"DOUBLE AGENT!!"
"GOOD GUY!!!"
"DOUBLE AGENT!!!"
Both of them shouted at each other over and over again until some of the students stood aside with Erika while the other stood aside with Zumi about which was the truth behind this mysterious guy.
"Hey….Ikki?" Metabee whispered
"Yes?" Ikki replied with a low tone
"I think it's time we go to cafeteria." Metabee said after feeling uncomfortable about the situation between Erika and Zumi along with their supporters.
"Yeah…I'm with you buddy." Ikki said then both of them headed toward the cafeteria to have lunch and a break.
--
The time now shows 03:00 PM, all of the Riverview Junior High students already finished school and heading to their homes, Ikki and Metabee also are on the way to their houses. While on the way home, Ikki keep thinking about what Erika and Zumi just fought about, Is this mysterious guy was good guy or a bad guy? If he was a good guy, why he's on the Select Corps most wanted listed? If he was a bad guy, why he must risk his life in battle with this Rogue Medabot and destroy it? There were so many questions on Ikki's head, so he decided to have a little talk with his Medabot friend.
"Hey Metabee, which side you are about this mysterious guy?" Ikki said while walking down the streets along with Metabee beside him.
"Me? Of course, I'm on Erika's side!! You know Zumi always got jealous about her scoop, so he always tried to find a way to make the news that Erika wrote just a piece of crap!!" Metabee said with a confident tone.
"Yeah, I wanted to believe Erika as well, but I still didn't understand. He definitely destroyed the Rogue Landmotor into pieces and saved the city from the chaos, but why he's on Select Corps most wanted list? What did he do?" Ikki still wondered.
"Because…….he just stole a Rare Medals." Suddenly a voiced came from a tree to their right.
"HUH?!" Both Ikki and Metabee were shocked.
"Wait…..I know that voice." Ikki realized.
"Oh no……not again." Metabee already who it was.
"PHANTOM RENEGADE!!" Ikki and Metabee said at the same time after saw a person who just landed from the tree nearby.
"Hey Ikki, Metabee, it's been a while." Phantom said after he stood right in front of them.
"What do you want this time Phantom?! Want to steal Metabee's medal again?!" Ikki said with angered tone.
"Yo it's been a few years and you still don't want to tell us who you really are?! Beside you are the Space Medafighter X?!" Metabee also started to lose patience.
"Relax, I don't want to steal your Rare Medal Metabee. Right now I'm on the hunt for Rare Medals that have been stolen from Medabots Corporation." Phantom reassured both of them.
"WHAAAAAAAAATTTTT???!!!" Both Ikki and Metabee shocked.
"Wait, the Rare Medals have been stolen?!" Ikki could not believe it.
"How is that possible?!" Metabee added.
"Don't you watch the news? It happened two days ago." Phantom said
Both Ikki and Metabee shared a face that they didn't know anything about it.
"Hmmph….kids these days….too much hype for robattles," Phantom added, and then he continued. "Alright, so this is what happened, two possible rogue Landmotor have stolen Rare Medals from the Medabots Corporation, I was about to face both of them when suddenly dozens of Select Corps squad surrounded them, of course, I couldn't show myself because I was in their most wanted list. So decided to watch them from a distance, I thought the Select Corps were able to defeat this simple and ordinary Medabot. But I was completely wrong."
"What happened?" Ikki asked.
"Those two Landmotor has been weaponized," Phantom said
"Weaponized? You mean they have new parts?" Metabee confused.
"I don't know how to say this, but they are some kind of missiles that can target more than six targets in one shot!"
"WHAT?!" Both Ikki and Metabee were shocked once again.
"There are no Medabots in the world who have such a weapon like that!" Ikki could not believe it. "No wonder there is chaos in Downtown by this Landmotor!!"
Metabee was speechless from hearing what Phantom said.
"That's what I'm afraid of Ikki, whoever weaponized this Landmotor, must already planned to still the Rare Medals for a long time. And about the chaos in Downtown,…….." Phantom said
"You met the mysterious big guy?" Ikki added
"Wait……you already knew it?" Phantom little bit shocked.
"We knew because Erika took a picture when the mysterious guy was battling with the Rogue Landmotor for her scoop."
"Errghhh……that girl!!" Phantom said with a low tone along with a pissed face knowing that Erika is always tried to expose his real identity back in the past, and now this?
"Not just that, apparently her friend who is a journalist too are also taking picture of you and the mysterious guy." Ikki added.
"Listen, right now I need to find that guy!! He's carrying a sack with a Rare medal in it!!" Phantom started to get rage.
"Wait….so it was true that guy took the Rare Medals for himself?!" Ikki was shocked.
"So Zumi was telling the truth?!" Metabee could not believe what just happened.
"I tried to warned him to give the Medals back to me or the whole world would be in great danger, but that's when Select Corps surrounded both us and he escaped along with the Rare Medals." Phantom said. "I don't have any time, I must find this guy right away!!" FAREWELL!!" Phantom then disappeared into knowhere after throwing a smoke to covering his escape.
Ikki and Metabee are shocked by what the Phantom Renegade said to them, the Rare Medals from the Medabots Corporation are already gone and now are in the hands of the other Landmotor that still remains at large and the mysterious guy.
"Metabee, we need to find out who tried to breach Medabots Corporation and who gave access to the Rare Medal Vault!! Perhaps Dr. Aki would help us! Then we will find out about that mysterious guy!!" Ikki said with a confident face.
"Yeah!! Let's find out the mole behind this incident!!!" Metabee agreed.
"You with me?" Ikki give a hand to Metabee
"Of course!!" Metabee immediately shake Ikki's hand.
Then both of them are on their way to Dr. Aki's house to help them solve the case. After they both reached the house, Ikki Immediately knocking the front door, when the door opened, it was a teenage girl who greeted both Ikki and Metabee.
"Hi, Ikki, Metabee." Said the girl with a warm smile.
"Hello Miss Nae, you look beautiful today," Ikki said along with a giggle and blushing face.
Metabee immediately reprimands Ikki by kicking his shin, knowing this is a serious situation.
"OUCH!! What was that for?!" Ikki said while still hurt.
"Remember what we came here for!" Metabee said with pissed face.
"Oh yeah, Is Dr. Aki around? We need to talk to him, right now." Ikki said to Miss Nae
"Oh….wait for moment…..Grandpa? Ikki and Metabee are looking for you." Miss Nae calls Dr. Aki who is her Grandfather.
"Why are you not in your workshop Miss Nae?" Ikki asked
"I just came here to look couple of things before I get back to my workshop, it was coincident when I was about to go I met you guys." Miss Nae said
Not for long, the person that Ikki and Metabee looking for already stands behind Miss Nae.
"Well hello Ikki, Metabee. It's been a while since I met you guys." Said Dr. Eugene Aki who greet them with smile, he was a prominent scientist who developed the basic of how Medabot works and also one of the most notable scientist in Medabots technology. His appearance was an eccentric old man who always wearing a sunglass, he also nearly bald and has a white hair.
"Dr. Aki, Medabot Corporation has been………" Ikki was about to explain the situation.
"Yeah I know, the Rare Medals has been stolen by two Landmotor." Dr. Aki already knew what was going on with a worried face.
"That's why we came for…to know who's giving access to the Rare Medals vault, there has to be a mole in Medabots Corporation who giving access to that area, perhaps you know someone who did," Ikki said.
"Hmmhhh…." Dr. Aki tried to think and remember.
"Oh yeah, I should go to the workshop to repair more Medabots, I leave you two behind with Grandpa, bye!" Miss Nae said then immediately exited the house then headed toward her workshop with her mobile store truck.
"Bye, Miss Nae!!" Ikki said with a happy face while waving his hand.
"Be careful out there!!" Metabee added.
Miss Nae Responded to Ikki and Metabee bye waving her hand from the vehicle, then she leaved the area. After that, Dr. Aki proceed Ikki and Metabee for come inside his house then seat on the living room area to discuss any further about the situation. After discussing about 15 minutes, Ikki and Metabee come out with something.
"So indeed there are only few peoples who can access the vault?" Ikki wondered after hearing Dr. Aki's explanation.
"And you're one of them right?" Metabee added.
"Yes, I am one of the authorized personnel who could access the Rare Medals Vault, along with three other persons." Dr. Aki explained.
"Three?" Ikki confused.
"You remember Professor Hushi?" Dr. Aki asked.
"Yes, the one who discovered the Rare Medals, creator of Medabots, and the founder of Medabots Corporation right?" Ikki said.
"Yes and he was my mentor too back then, and of course you did not forget about Dr. Meta-Evil right?"
"The one who tried to recreate Ten Days of Darkness by kidnapping and using the Rare Medals power of my Metabee!!" Ikki said with a high tone because he was still traumatized by the day he almost lost his Medabot friend forever.
"Calm down Ikki! I'm here with you." Metabee tried to calm down his human friend who starred to get raged by reaching his hands.
"I'm sorry Metabee, I almost lost you that day. I still could not forgive for what he did to you." Ikki said and stared to cool down from his anger.
After Ikki calmed from his anger, Dr. Aki continued. "Those two are also the authorize personnel who could access the Rare Medals vault when they still work at Medabots Corporation. But since now there are now in outer space and hasn't returned to earth till this days, there is no way they give the access code to anyone. Only one person remaining who have access code to the vault, and I don't know if he was involved in this incident or not."
"Who is it Dr. Aki?" Ikki asked.
"Dr. Maizu Zora." Dr. Aki said
"WHAT?!" Ikki and Metabee were shocked at the same time.
"No way!! He hasn't worked for Extreme Tech nor developed any Kilobot again since the Gryphon incident!! And he already returned to his son Zuru after he realized that all of his research on developing Kilobot was completely wrong!! How could you accuse him?!" Ikki couldn't believe the words he heard from the old man.
"I know Ikki, I know. He already admitted to me that his research of Kilobot is superior to Medabot was completely wrong, but he used to work at Medabots Corporation with me before he left and joined Extreme Tech and he knows about the access code to the Rare Medal's vault. Perhaps he's the one you should ask about this situation, maybe he will give you an answer." Dr. Aki explained.
Ikki and Metabee didn't have any choice, they must go their friend house Zuru to asked his father if he was involved or know anything about who has the access into the Rare Medals Vault, this the only way to find out who created the Medabots into a deadly weapon.
"Alright Dr. Aki, me and Metabee will go to Zuru's house and met his father, maybe he will give us any clue about this madness." Ikki said after he standing from his seat.
"We will find that mole no matter what!!" Metabee added with flame sparks in his eyes due to his spirit.
"I'm counting on you two, good luck guys." Dr. Aki said with a smile.
With that, Ikki and Metabee headed toward the front door to exit the house, then suddenly…….
"Ikki? Metabee? Dr. Aki called them from behind.
"Yes?" Ikki and Metabee said at the same time while they both looking toward the old man behind them and was about exited the door.
"Before you leave……….could you guys help me clean my bookshelf here? I'm too old for this." Dr. Aki said with an eccentric smile for begging their help.
"ARGH!!!!" Both Ikki and Metabee fall to the ground simultaneously knowing how lazy they are for doing this kind of job.
--
After Ikki and Metabee 'helped" Dr. Aki, they both immediately head toward Zuru's house, while on their way, they both still look a little bit pissed after he got the task of helping the old man clean his tall and dusty bookshelf, especially for the Kabuto Type Medabot.
"Erghh!! That old Einstein guy!! Why does he always give us tasks every time we go to his house?!" Metabee is still pissed at Dr. Aki.
"Quit yapping Metabee!! He is just an old man who cannot do anything by himself again, I know sometimes I got pissed with him too as well, but he helped us a lot back in the past!!" Ikki said to his Medabot friend with a high tone.
"Like what?!" Metabee doesn't like where this conversation go.
"Like give us special training!!"
"Special training by cleaning his entire house?! Collecting his weekly trash bag?! Carrying him all the way by a chair on our back?! That's not a special training!! THAT'S A TORTURE!!" Metabee spoils all of his rages.
"I told you many times!! It was like that Karate movie where the kid washed the old man vehicle and his entire window and turns out it was part of the Karate moves!!" Ikki started to get rage from his big mouth Medabot friend.
"Don't give me that same trash movie reference over and over again!!! You're a bad Medafighter for me!!"
"OH YEAH?!"
"YEAH!!"
"ERRRRRRRGGGGGHHHH!!!" Both Ikki and Metabee face to face each other with their angry glare.
"Hey Ikki, Metabee. You guys don't go home yet?" Suddenly a male voice came from their front.
"HUH?!" Both Ikki and Metabee shocked, they arguing each other along the way until they didn't realize they already in front of Zuru Zora house.
"GAH!! Zuru?! How do you know we were in front of your house?! Ikki was shocked when he saw Zuru already at the front door along with his white-blue Kuwagata Type Medabot.
"I heard your voice and Metabee arguing something from my room, so decided to check it out, and turns out it was you guys," Zuru said
Both Ikki and Metabee immediately embarrassed themselves, why they kept arguing with each other about something not important at all.
"Hi, Metabee, Ikki, good to see you." Said the Kuwagata Type Medabot who stands right next to Zuru.
"Hey Roks, what's up buddy!!," Metabee said greeting Zuru's Medabot.
"Good to see you too Roks," Ikki added with a smile.
"So what brings you two here? I thought you guys already go home after school." Zuru asked.
"No time to explained Zuru, is your father at home?" Ikki said with a rush tone.
"Oh, you two must be Ikki and Metabee." Suddenly a voice came from Zuru's back.
"Oh…dad, yeah this two suddenly came to our house." Zuru said to his father who stand right behind him.
"You must be Dr. Maizu right? There is something we need to talk about." Ikki said.
"Is it about the Rare Medals that were just stolen?" Dr. Maizu asked.
"Yes, and we believe you know someone who gives access to the Rare Medals vault." Continued Ikki.
"ACK!!" Dr. Maizu was suddenly shocked after hearing what Ikki just said.
Ikki, Metabee, Zuru, and Roks are also shocked to see Dr. Maizu's behavior, perhaps he knew something that nobody does know about.
"All of you, come inside quick!!" Dr. Maizu ordered Ikki, Metabee, Roks, and his son to enter the house immediately, after they all inside the house, Dr. Maizu once again checked outside to make sure no one else saw them, then he locked the door and closed all the windows with curtain. After that, he told them to sit in the living room area and then finally talk about what was really going on.
"Listen, I DON'T give those access codes to no one!! Not even when I was working with Extreme Tech!! I was too busy on research and development of Kilobot and never thought of giving an access code to my former and rival company which is the Medabots Corporation!!" Dr. Maizu explained with an afraid and shaking face.
"I know you're not behind this Dr. Maizu!! But if wasn't you, then who's giving them access to Rare Medals Vault?! Dr. Aki said there are only four people who have full access to the vault, and one of them is you! Professor Hushi and Dr. Meta-Evil are no longer here so DEFINITELY it wasn't them who gave the access!! Ikki said with a high tone. "And second, why are you looking afraid right now?!
"Yeah Dad, tell me what is really going on?! Are you trying to hide something from me again?" Zuru said and was about to cry. He was still traumatized when his father left him and his mother because got immersed in Kilobot research and changed his personality which made him hate Kilobot so much, and so did his own father.
"No Zuru!! I wasn't hide anything from you, it just…" Dr. Maizu doesn't know how say it.
"JUST WHAT DAD?!" Zuru already lost his patience.
"I think ………someone try to avenge me."
All the people in the living room including the two Medabots instantly shocked, Dr. Maizu used to have many enemies when he was working at Extreme Tech to develop a machine that had no soul and only focused on damage, winning, and chaos. But since he already quit Extreme Tech and admitted his the research that he had been doing for a long time was wrong, he gained respect again from his son, family, and society. So who wants to avenge him for something he didn't do?
"Hold up, some want to avenge you?! Who?!" Metabee shocked.
"I don't know for sure but I have a strong feeling that this person was behind this incident and he finally got what he wanted……revenge." Dr. Maizu finally tell what is really going on.
"Who is it Dr. Maizu?" Ikki asked with a worried face.
"Before I tell you who he was, let me tell you a story of how I know this person and he wanted revenge on me." Dr. Maizu with one deep breath, continued his story.
"I used to be a scientist at Medabots Corporation, In earlier development of Medabots, Dr. Aki and I clashed with one another, because he wanted to downgrade all the Medabots Medals for safety reasons, while I wanted all Medabot had the First Medal, which is the exact copies of the Rare Medals that capable using Medaforce. I thought that kids would prefer powerful Medabots over friendlier ones and I see Dr. Aki was limiting the potential of the product. So the research and development team was split into two, the one who wanted Medabot to be friendly and not harmful led by Dr. Aki, and the one who wanted Medabot to be powerful and be used by Medaforce using the first Medal which was led by myself. I have an assistant who always works with me while developing Medabot like Arcbeetle Dash and Tyrelbeetle, his name is Dr. Tatsumi Harada."
Ikki, Metabee, Zuru, and Roks are wondered and confused because they never heard who this guy is. Then Dr. Maizu continued.
"Besides working developing those two Medabot together, Dr. Harada often goes to the Rare Medal's vault to study and copy the Medals to make the First Medal. When Dr. Aki found out I was developing two Medabots that had the First Medal, he was concerned about the safety of the children and was considered too strong to be released at the time. Because he didn't appreciate my work, me and Dr. Harada left the Medabot Corporation and together we joined Extreme Tech where we could develop more superior products with power as much as we wanted."
"And then what happened?" Ikki asked.
"After the Gryphon incident, I quit Extreme Tech and blamed myself for creating one of the most powerful and dangerous kilobots ever. From the news I heard, six months after the incident, Kilobot sales have drastically dropped to the lowest point, Extreme Tech doesn't have any choice but to do a laid off many employees, including Dr. Harada."
"Wait what?!" Metabee shocked.
"Yeah I was shocked too when I heard he got laid off as well and he suddenly call me after didn't hear anything about him since I quit from the company."
"Why did he suddenly call you dad?" Zuru asked.
"He said that he just got laid off and doesn't have any job yet, and then he asked if he could join the Medabots Corporation again. Although I'm not working there anymore, I still have links and friends in that company, including Dr. Aki, so I said you are welcome if you want to join that company again, but his response was unexpected." Dr. Maizu started to get worried
"What does he say?" Ikki asked
"He said he want to make Medabots more powerful than ever just like when he still works at Extreme Tech."
Everyone in the living room was instantly shocked once again
"Yes, I told him I'm not a person who wants Medabots to be more powerful and less friendly anymore, not since the Gryphon incident. I lost everything due to my greediness, including my family. So I said to him…………he's not welcoming anymore to Medabot Corporation……..ever again."
"Then what happened?" Metabee asked.
"He said he'll swear to find a way to avenge me back, he'll do anything to make Medabots more powerful than any other Medabots and Kilobot that ever had. I never heard from him for three years, I thought he just wanted to thread me for ditching him, but when I heard Medabot Corporation had been robbed by a Medabot with an advanced weapon………..my worst nightmare came true."
"So you think Dr. Harada was the one behind this?" Ikki asked.
"I don't know, but the thing is he's still out there somewhere and I have a hunch that this attack involved him and he must be working with someone to weaponize that Landmotor."
"I see," Ikki said
After hearing the story Dr. Maizu, Ikki, and Metabee finally find a clue about who was behind this incident, they also finally understand this was not just a regular Medal robbery, but it was avenged by someone who already planned this attack for a long time. Now the question remained on both Ikki and Metabee's heads: Who is this Dr. Harada? Is he the one behind this incident? What's the reason he created Medabot with an advanced and deadly weapon to steal the Rare Medals? And most importantly, with who he was working for?
