The 999 is in serious trouble on the Planet of the Cowardly Elder. This dire situation is caused by the planet's president, Delmukade, who trusts no one. Delmukade's primary motivation is to obtain Tetsuro's body. He lacks the courage to adopt a mechanical body himself, which drives his actions against the group. The narrative focuses on the conflict arising from his cowardice and his specific desire for Tetsuro's physical form, creating a significant threat to the 999's current status on this particular planet.
