Galactor utilizes an ISO weapon factory to produce Mekanika, a machine capable of constant transformation based on microfilm plans. The Science Ninja Team tracks the target but separates after losing visual contact, reconvening at Nambu's residence. Jinpei discovers a hidden underground base while searching a tunnel and retrieves a critical micro cassette containing the transformation schematics. Nambu devises a strategy using this data to alter Mekanika's structure. Ken infiltrates the machine through a casing gap and engages in combat with pilot Katse. Despite the struggle, Ken successfully inserts the cassette into the computer system. The device then transforms into a fairground attraction, causing Katse to flee the scene.
