98

Joe collides with a woman who reminds him of his mother, but blinding light causes fear. Meanwhile, God Phoenix struggles because G-2 is missing. Upon returning, Joe hides his physical issues and acts aggressively toward Nambu. Nambu tasks Joe with rescuing air pollution specialist Mekker, who develops mechas, and asks Ken to assist secretly. Joe launches a Bird Missile while God Phoenix infiltrates the enemy mecha unnoticed. Inside, Joe accuses Mekker of using poisonous gas to kill people. Mekker claims Galactor appreciated him while the world ignored him. Joe provokes Mekker to draw his weapon, but blinding light strikes again. Ken intervenes to save Joe. Katse’s voice emerges with gas, revealing Mekker’s manipulation. Ken and others escape with Mekker, destroying the base and mecha. Joe later visits the woman, fearing his illness will remove him from the Science Ninja Team and prevent his revenge.
