Preparations for the announcement of who will become Robo Masters is disrupted by a volcanic eruption.
Synopsis[edit | edit source]
Chief Bitou announces that for National Disaster Prevention Week in a fortnight's time Machine Robo Rescue will make a special announcement concerning the final assignments of the Robo Masters. However, as soon as his speech finishes the alarm sounds - Kaga Mountain has erupted, causing fires on the nearby plains. Red Wings, Blue Sirens and Yellow Gears all scramble - and with 10,000 people needing evacuation instructors Miyajima, Sasaki and Marie Bitou join the cadets on the mission. Jet Robo notices that even Taiyoh is nervous about such a dangerous assignment. Information on the ground is being given by volcano expert Toru Konoe. Konoe's injured assistant Moriyama tells him that their observation station is far from safe, but is shouted down by the eccentric scientist. He informs Machine Robo Rescue that the first eruption of Kaga was at dawn, and while the volcano is simmering a second eruption is possible. The Machine Robo deploy, with Arias and the Fire Team heading in to stop the forest fires and the Drill Team led by Daichi going to repair the damaged defensive walls around the volcano, while the other cadets get the civilians onboard Wing Liner, Siren Galley and Gear Dump. Makoto takes the Police Team to clear the traffic so more emergency vehicles can reach the area, while Taiyoh and the Jet Team circle the top of the volcano to provide video updates of the situation. While the Sky Robo do that Jet and Taiyoh head over to meet Konoe, arriving just as he kicks Moriyama out of the research station. He tells Taiyoh to get his assistant to safety but is reluctant to leave the station himself. Jet reminds Taiyoh his first duty is to evacuate the injured Moriyama, who is perplexed that Konoe gifted him his treasured binoculars before kicking him out.
Moments later the second eruption happens, trapping Konoe in the research station. Taiyoh orders Jet to drop him and Moriyama off in the woods so he can head back to rescue Konoe. Lava pours down to the other Machine Robo, so Fire Robo, Police Robo and Drill Robo all switch to their Hyper Modes. Hyper Fire Robo blasts the lava with water while Hyper Police Robo confirms a group of flats are completely evacuated. Daichi then calculates that toppling a trio of buildings will form a wall to stop the lava. The Machine Robo knock the structures over, successfully blocking the path of the lava. Konoe meanwhile has escaped his observation station but is cut off and believes this is the end for him but Jet arrives, reporting back to Taiyoh - just as a third eruption starts, pelting the Machine Robo with rocks. Taiyoh activates Jet's Hyper Mode to give him the speed boost needed to escape. A huge rock is throw out but Hyper Jet Robo is able to punch and shatter it. The others lose contact with Taiyoh and are worried until he is able to radio in. Hyper Jet Robo carries him, Konoe and Moriyama back to safety. The whole operation has been observed by Jay and Stealth Robo in the Disasters' base. Back in Tokyo a parade is thrown for Machine Robo Rescue, and the Robo Masters are announced - Daichi will pilot Drill Robo, Makoto will pilot Police Robo, Arias will pilot Fire Robo and Taiyoh will pilot Jet Robo.
