Chapter 235: The Mighty Hero Is Here!

Listen While Reading:

-----

Neo Mighty Brave Gaoyusha!

The mightiest hero from the Earth where Kenichi and his friends came from.

A combination of the strongest robots that their world had to offer, the Deus Ex Beasts.

Created through the materialization of the “Light” formed from the Sealed “Darkness” through the Symbols.

These Symbols were imprinted into the Sea of Darkness by Deus Ex Machina, the protector of Earth, a powerful ancient and sentient A.I. that had been recording Earth’s evolution this entire time.

In ancient times, when the Dark Storm Dragon arrived in their Solar System to destroy Earth and any living being, Deus Ex Machina used his powers to Seal him within these Six Symbols.

Red of Courage.

Blue of Friendship.

Pink of Love.

Yellow of Hope.

Green of Sincerity.

And Black of Reliability.

By reversing the Darkness into Light, he was able to create an incredible power, which he repurposed into further protecting Earth from the incoming threats that had spread through the galaxy after the Dark Storm Dragon was sealed.

Without that monster roaming freely across the galaxy, other villainous aliens and races of powerful demons across the universe quickly began moving towards Earth.

Not only to obtain its precious resources, a perfectly habitable planet full of life, but also to obtain the Sealed Powers of the Dark Storm Dragon and become the rulers of the universe themselves!

Therefore, in that moment, Deus Ex Machina chose six brave young men and women to hold the power of the Symbols within them.

Kenichi was chosen as the Red Symbol of Courage, due to his natural talents of leadership, his strong willpower, and his great charisma.

His other friends were also chosen for similar reasons; they all had certain qualities that made them chosen by the Symbols.

Therefore, even though it was Athena who pulled out the power of the Symbols, they had to choose their new vessels on their own decision.

And this meant that Bing Xue’s children and Merneith were all worthy of becoming vessels for their power.

However, something surprising had happened!

After all, Kenichi still existed as the Gaoranger of Courage.

And yet, another Gaoranger of Courage was chosen, Kalana!

Therefore…

Kalana was chosen as Red of Courage.

Hekita was chosen for Blue of Friendship.

Rainbow Eyes was chosen for Pink of Love.

Athena was chosen for Yellow of Hope.

Merneith was chosen for Green of Sincerity.

And Orion was chosen for Black of Reliability.

And Kenichi was also Courage…

This had never been seen before!

Two Red Gaorangers.

This meant that the Symbols powers could actually be shared way more than before.

One Symbol didn’t have to belong to a single person, but several could hold their power at once, albeit divided.

But Kenichi didn’t mind!

He knew that this was how the Symbols wished it to happen, and he embraced the second Red Gaoranger.

And through the power of Grand Gattai, the Neo Deus Ex Beasts, formerly the Spirit Beast God Machines, all began to combine into the mighty being in front of the Dark Storm Dragon right now.

Crimson Lion became the mighty robot’s torso, rapidly twisting its entire body, its arms and legs fusing with the rest of its body, gaining a torso-shaped form while floating in midair.

CLANK!

Then, Anubis and Ra went towards its left and right; Anubis transformed into a huge and burly mechanical arm of black, gold, and blue color, with the jackal head on top of the shoulder, and Ra did the same, becoming a blazing green, red, and gold arm with the golden bird head in the shoulder.

CLANK! CLANK!

As both arms were formed, the torso flew towards another robot, the Moonlight Hare of Love! It rapidly transformed, becoming a large mechanical waist with the hare’s head in the middle, pointy ears up.

CLAAANK!

As it did this, the two wolves, the Black Wolf of Death and Decay and the White Wolf of Life and Nature rapidly unified their body compositions.

Their arms and legs merged with their long torsos, as their heads rapidly moved backwards, becoming foot.

CLANK! CLANK! CLANK!

At the same time, their long tails connected to the waist made out of the Moonlight Hare, becoming the robot’s legs.

“CRYAAAH!”

And lastly, the Golden Red Phoenix, piloted by Kalana, quickly divided; half of its torso flew towards the Crimson Lion, its head included, and merged into a stylish humanoid head, with a golden phoenix helmet, blazing with red flames.

CLANK!

Meanwhile, the second half, with the blazing wings, flew towards the robot’s back, attaching itself there, giving the new machine hero the ability of flight with ease!

 CLAAANK!

Kenichi, Rainbow Eyes, Kalana, Merneith, Hekita, Athena, and Orion were then suddenly teleported into the interior of Crimson Lion, appearing in front of a huge control panel.

Each one of them had their own colorful seat with their own control panel! By merely touching it with a glowing, colorful sphere, their senses converged, allowing them to move the machine with just their wills.

“The Hero of Justice, Protector of Humanity, is Reborn!”

RUMBLE!

The giant of over two hundred meters in height emerged as colorful explosions erupted behind it while the robot moved its arms by Kenichi’s commands, posing with the might of a hero of justice.

Kenichi roared with all his might, making the rest of the members cringe a bit.

“Full Power! Let’s go, Neo Mighty Brave Gaoyusha!”

BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM!

The colorful explosions erupted behind the robot, of the color of the rainbow. They served absolutely no purpose at all other than to look cool and intimidating.

“W-Why are there explosions behind us?!” Rainbow Eyes panicked. “Hey, can’t I change my color, though?! I don’t want to be Pink of Love!”

“Hahah! I’m afraid I cannot do that, shounen!” Said Kenichi. “You are the one among us that feels the most Love and Compassion here! You were the perfect vessel for the Symbol. The Pink color only means you love your family and everyone else very much! Be proud, young man! Hahaha!”

“I’m going to beat some sense into this weirdo…” Rainbow Eyes already began walking towards Kenichi.

“Little Brother, there’s no time for fooling around!” Athena said. “Sit down; we cannot waste a single second! That monster is coming! Please, Rainbow Eyes!”

“Aaah, dammit!” Rainbow Eyes complained cutely as he sat down and quickly joined his siblings.

“T-This is certainly new for me…” Merneith muttered, looking at her suit and her surroundings. “Um, is this commonplace on Earth?”

“Not at all!” Hekita said. “And I am not exactly someone from Earth, so I wouldn’t know either!”

“It’s definitely not common, I think,” Athena said. “Mama said that twelve years ago, the world had no magic or supernatural stuff, and she was just a normal human! However, just when things started, she was teleported to another world, Murim! That’s where she got her powers. When she returned, the world was a mess like this!”

“But it’s not exactly Kenichi’s fault either; he was dragged here unwillingly, right?” Orion asked.

“Indeed!” Kenichi nodded. “Something happened that ended up dragging my entire team here… And we’ll return! For now, however, we must defeat this great evil before he destroys your world! Because I cannot let that happen! I wouldn’t be able to live knowing I let another Earth end up destroyed due to my negligence… The power I have also holds a great responsibility! Would you guys lend me your power?”

“We won’t,” Athena said.

“H-Huh?!” Kenichi was surprised.

“Instead, we’ll combine all our power together! Nobody is going to hold it completely; we will share it equally!” Athena smiled.

“Hahah! I was so used to that word that I suppose you’re right! Asking for everyone’s power would come off as selfish! Indeed, what we must do is work together as one! Now! Neo Brave Gaoyusha, step forward!”

RUMBLE!

As the giant robot stepped forward, an Aura of Elements and power spread everywhere, shaking the ground around them.

“T-This power…!”

Kenichi was shocked; the robot no longer just had its original powers but had been further boosted by the original strength of the machines combined into it.

“Ra seems happy in this form, surprisingly!” Merneith smiled.

“Anubis is also excited!” Hekita nodded.

“I think the hare is fine… Huh,” Rainbow Eyes didn’t want to admit the hare was very happy.

“The Phoenix is blazing with willpower!” Kalana said.

“And the wolves, they seem ready to move!” Athena said.

“Then let’s go, as one!” Orion nodded.

Bing Xue let go of the Dark Storm Dragon, as the giant rushed towards the robot, ignoring her completely.

“Alright, now show me what you can do!”

She crossed her arms while looking at the scene, all while several of her doppelgangers were already flying across the entire world and the skies.

“YOU FUCKING GAORANGERS NEVER LEARN YOUR PLACE, DO YOU?!”

The dragon roared furiously, swinging all four of his giant, muscular arms against the Gaoyusha, who quickly swung its hands against it, releasing both green flames from Ra’s arm and shadows from Anubis' arm!

CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!

Their attacks were quicker than Kenichi expected; this was a completely different level of battle than before! Not only did the Gaoyusha feel incredibly fast, but it had also become much easier to control.

“NNGGHHH…! T-THIS IS…?!”

The Dark Storm Dragon’s eyes widened in disbelief as he saw his arms covered in large holes, wounds constantly spread through him the more damage he took.

And these holes were parts of his own existence that were being sealed the more he fought!

“I can’t let them get to this point! I must eliminate them!”

He quickly leaped back from where he came from, surprising Kenichi due to his cowardliness.

“I’LL ELIMINATE YOU WITH ONE BLOW!”

He opened his jaws, beginning to charge up his darkness and then, firing a massive dragon breath composed of purple and black flames.

TRUUUMMM!!!

“{Crimson Lion Roar}!”

“ROOOAARRR!”

Kenichi raised his arms as the lion-shaped head in Gaoyusha’s chest roared mightily, releasing a powerful shockwave of blazing energy that pushed the dragon’s breath back!

However, it was only temporary, as the flames rapidly continued their trajectory towards them. They knew that if they evaded, the attack would reach New York right behind them.

They couldn’t let that happen!

Therefore…

“{Ra’s Flames of Purgatory}!”

“{Phoenix Golden Flames}!”

“{Crimson Lion’s Courage Flames}!”

The flames of each of the Deus Ex Beasts converged, swirling together into a giant shield with a huge V-shaped gold ornament in the middle.

And then, the blazing shield overflowed with blazing flames, absorbing the breath of the Dark Storm Dragon completely.

“{Combination Technique: Victorious Blazing Shield}!”

FLUOOOSH!

The shield absorbed the flames and rapidly began to grow larger and larger, making the Dark Storm Dragon shocked.

“W-What the…?!”

And before he could do anything, the shield exploded, sending a massive inferno of red flames towards him.

“Gah?!”

BOOOMMM!!!
