	At the peak of the [[Matterhorn]], [[Ginrai (human)\|Ginrai]] and the fused [[Scorponok (G1)\|BlackZarak]]/[[Devil Z]] entity prepare to face off against each other in their final battle. BlackZarak inquires if the [[Autobot]] leader plans to fight him alone, and Ginrai responds with a barrage of laser fire, which BlackZarak shrugs off. The villain transforms to scorpion mode and takes to the air, but Ginrai pursues him and seizes him by the tail. BlackZarak roars that he does not have time to waste on Ginrai, freely divulging his plan—he has placed an [[Devil Thunder amplifier\|amplifier]] for his [[Devil Power]] at the [[South Pole]], which will allow him to eliminate humanity in the blink of an eye. The furious Ginrai attempts to drag BlackZarak back down to the mountain's peak, and he calls out for [[Overlord (~~Masterforce~~)\|Overlord]] and the [[Darkwings]] brothers to aid him. Help is not forthcoming, but Ginrai still manages to rip off BlackZarak's cannons and tricks the villain into blasting himself with his own tail weapon. Damaged, BlackZarak begins to lose altitude, and Ginrai uses his own jets to steer the [[Decepticon]] into the mountainside. At the last second, however, BlackZarak throws off Ginrai and collapses part of the mountain, burying Ginrai in an avalanche.

	Elsewhere on the mountain, the other Autobots and Decepticons are recovering from their injuries. While [[Minerva (~~Masterforce~~ human)\|Minerva]] tends to the wounds [[Metalhawk (~~Masterforce~~)\|Metalhawk]] received during his battle with [[King Poseidon]] in one location, in another spot, [[Hydra (~~Masterforce~~)\|Hydra]] and [[Buster (~~Masterforce~~)\|Buster]] finally recover consciousness after the beating administered to them by BlackZarak. While Buster is still trying to wrap his mind around what happened, Hydra simply writes it off as punishment for weakness and proof that they must fight even harder. The chance for such a fight immediately arrives in the form of the Autobot [[Godmaster (lifeform)\|Godmasters]], and even though the two weakened Decepticons practically collapse after only a few shots are exchanged, they continue to draw out the fight. Lightfoot questions his tactics, however the Godmaster brothers still fight.		Elsewhere on the mountain, the other Autobots and Decepticons are recovering from their injuries.

	Some miles away, [[Clouder]] has supplied [[Cancer (~~Masterforce~~)\|Cancer]], [[Wilder (~~Masterforce~~)\|Wilder]] and [[Bullhorn (~~Masterforce~~)\|Bullhorn]] with a heavily armed buggy so that they can participate in the battle on the Matterhorn. As the quartet head towards the Alps, Wilder chooses to remind everyone that he has definitely not joined the Autobots, but the protest has grown so stale that Cancer laughs it off, much to Wilder's annoyance. Wilder then tells them to hold on and they floor it around the mountain.

The furious Ginrai attempts to drag BlackZarak back down to the mountain's peak, and he calls out for [[Overlord (Masterforce)\|Overlord]] and the [[Darkwings]] brothers to aid him. Help is not forthcoming, but Ginrai still manages to rip off BlackZarak's cannons and tricks the villain into blasting himself with his own tail weapon.

While Buster is still trying to wrap his mind around what happened, Hydra simply writes it off as punishment for weakness and proof that they must fight even harder. The chance for such a fight immediately arrives in the form of the Autobot [[Godmaster (lifeform)\|Godmasters]], and even though the two weakened Decepticons practically collapse after only a few shots are exchanged, they continue to draw out the fight.

	Meanwhile, far above, BlackZarak's new form now stands revealed: a twisted, two-headed serpent, which launches energy blasts at God Ginrai from its mouths and swats him out of the sky with its tail. As the battle rages, Overlord appears overhead, and BlackZarak offers him a chance to redeem himself, but the Ambassador of Destruction opens fire on BlackZarak instead. Infuriated, BlackZarak vows to show Overlord what happens to traitors and envelops him in a beam of Devil Power. Crying in pain, Overlord's last act is to tell Ginrai to ensure that BlackZarak does not live, before Giga and Mega are suddenly ejected from the sphere of Devil Power. Shocked at what they are seeing, Ginrai and Grand Maximus are distracted enough to be blasted out of the sky by BlackZarak, just as the cocoon of Devil Power recedes and the Overlord transtector emerges...now a truly living super-robot lifeform itself, brought to life by the power of Devil Z!

BlackZarak orders Wilder, Cancer and Bullhorn's now-living transtectors to attack Ginrai instead, but the Godmasters arrive just in time to handle them, leaving Ginrai to face off against BlackZarak. God Fire Guts and Devil Power collide in a mighty explosion, hurling Ginrai back and leaving Devil Z simply laughing from within BlackZarak's body. He announces to Ginrai that the Autobot's very existence—the existence of all the Godmasters—is as a result of his machinations, and to him, they are nothing more than tools that will never be able to defeat their maker. Ginrai refutes this, declaring that Devil Z has long underestimated the strength of humans and the limitless possibilities that exist within mankind, and that is why he shall never defeat them. Exploding into flame once more, Ginrai activates the God Fire Guts and dives at BlackZarak, driving hard against a beam of Devil Power. Fighting with all his strength, Ginrai overpowers the beam and crashes into and through BlackZarak, whose body finally explodes into fragments, exposing the glowing orb of Devil Z. As the villain rages impotently, Ginrai and the Headmaster Juniors unite every drop of their Chōkon Power for one last, mighty attack: the FINAL FIRE GUTS!

Burning with righteous anger and [[Chōkon Power]], Ginrai rises, and Shūta, [[Cab (human)\|Cab]] and Minerva all feel the energy of their commander. In a flash of light, the three children find themselves in God Ginrai's chest cockpit, ready to fight alongside their leader as the defining moment of the battle draws nearer. Overlord lunges for Ginrai, but Grand Maximus transforms to robot mode and tackles him. BlackZarak orders Wilder, Cancer and Bullhorn's now-living transtectors to attack Ginrai instead, but the Godmasters arrive just in time to handle them, leaving Ginrai to face off against BlackZarak. God Fire Guts and Devil Power collide in a mighty explosion, hurling Ginrai back and leaving Devil Z simply laughing from within BlackZarak's body. He announces to Ginrai that the Autobot's very existence—the existence of all the Godmasters—is as a result of his machinations, and to him, they are nothing more than tools that will never be able to defeat their maker. Ginrai refutes this, declaring that Devil Z has long underestimated the strength of humans and the limitless possibilities that exist within mankind, and that is why he shall never defeat them. Exploding into flame once more, Ginrai activates the God Fire Guts and dives at BlackZarak, driving hard against a beam of Devil Power. Fighting with all his strength, Ginrai overpowers the beam and crashes into and through BlackZarak, whose body finally explodes into fragments, exposing the glowing orb of Devil Z. As the villain rages impotently, Ginrai and the Headmaster Juniors unite every drop of their Chōkon Power for one last, mighty attack: the FINAL FIRE GUTS! Burning with the passion and strength of his fellow humans and Autobots, Ginrai dives like a flaming spear into the heart of Devil Z, who screams and explodes in a coruscating wave of light and darkness.
