Synopsis

[edit]

Overlord fires his "A.O. Laser Cannon" from the top of Chomolungma, a mountain, to attack places worldwide, including the United States of America, the United Kingdom, the Soviet Union, and Japan. Overlord says they will build their new home in the United States. Wilder suggests taking the land of the Soviet Union as their yard. Bullhorn thinks the United Kingdom could be their villa. Cancer pines for Japan.

God Ginrai arrives at the top of Chomolungma to stop the Decepticons, but Overlord fires his A.O. Laser Cannon at him. God Ginrai separates into Super Ginrai and Godbomber to avoid the laser, but Doubleclouder suddenly appears and uses a mirror to reflect the laser. Ginrai takes the brunt of the laser to protect the Headmaster Juniors who pilot Godbomber. The laser injures Ginrai and blinds him temporarily.

While the Decepticons are having their moments, Doubleclouder asks them which place he can take. Overlord says he will take Chomolungma and Cancer mocks Clouder's beast mode by saying the place is suitable for a bird's nest. In rage, Doubleclouder decides to join the Autobots, transforming into Autobot form and destroying Overlord's A.O. Laser Cannon, then going to help Ginrai. Ginrai is surprised at the joining of a new warrior.

Ginrai and Godbomber combine into God Ginrai. The Autobot Headmaster Juniors guide Ginrai by telling him where the enemy is, helping him successfully defeat Overlord and crushing Giga and Mega out of the Transtector.

Ginrai's eyes recover shortly after. He thanks Doubleclouder for his help. Doubleclouder replies that he will help them from now on for justice.

At Decepticon headquarters, Mega believes Clouder's betrayal is the result of not giving Clouder enough love and concern. Giga comforts Mega by stating that they could give Antarctica to Clouder next time, making the Decepticon Headmaster Juniors jealous.

In the Autobot headquarters, Minerva cooks a bowlful of fried rice for Clouder.

In space, Devil Z is secretly upgrading BlackZarak. It is revealed that Scorponok, the former leader of the Decepticons, is actually inside the chest of BlackZarak—BlackZarak is a headless Headmaster.
