DR. MUTO
Dr. Muto
Dr. Muto formed the Muto Bacteria Research Institute. He had his own building and laboratory to conduct his research, along with several scientists. One day, Jade Mask and several Zolders arrive in his building. Dr. Muto and his scientists were held captive in the basement of the building. Jade Mask takes on Dr. Muto's identity and several of the Zolders are now scientists. A reporter (Peggy) had stopped by to get information on mold she had found. After talking, she was escorted back out. Peggy was not fooled and decided to search the grounds. Peggy spots a cellar window. She opens it and is very surprised to see Dr. Muto and several other scientists below. Peggy asks the man if he is the real Dr. Muto? Dr. Muto replies that he is. He warns Peggy that the place is now occupied by the Black Cross Army and urges her to escape. Before Peggy can respond, she is pushed down into the cellar by a scientist behind her. The scientist closes the window, trapping Peggy inside with Dr. Muto and his scientists. Peggy tries to contact the rest of the Gorengers, but her Communication Device is not working. "Dr. Muto" and a scientist enter. Dr. Muto is taken aback to see himself replicated. "Dr. Muto" notes the reporter has gotten too involved and tells her she can never leave this place. "Dr. Muto" laughs and then reveals that he is Jade Mask. Jade Mask tells them, when you leave here, you will be a Jade doll too. Jade Mask and the scientist leave. Peggy asks Dr. Muto what is Black Cross Army trying to do? Dr. Muto replies they want to test the Jade Mold on us. Dr. Muto explains, Jade Mold is a deadly mold that Jade Mask invented and they will be lab rats soon. Peggy tries to think of a way to escape. The walls are covered in Jade Mold. Peggy almost touches it, but a scientist stops her, explaining she will soon be covered in it. After awhile, Peggy wraps her Explosive Necklace around the bars of the cell's door. Peggy warns the rest to stand back as she uses her Laser Ring and fires at the Explosive Necklace. The explosion opens the door and Peggy urges the scientists to escape quickly. Peggy is stopped by Jade Mask before she can get away. He tells her their plan will start in thirty minutes. Jade Mask intents to keep her there, and enters the cell. The Zolders try to throw her back in, but she fights them. Jade Mask has Dr. Muto and warns her not to resist or they will kill the doctor. Dr. Muto tells Peggy to keep fighting. Another scientist tries to grab Jade Mask's staff and, instead, is killed with it. Peggy is tossed back into the cell. Jade Mask traps her with his staff and tells her he is going to show her something special. A blind covering a window goes up. Jade Mask pushes Peggy towards the window. The window looks into another room, where a hot air balloon is being filled. Peggy asks what are they going to do with the hot air balloon? Dr. Muto asks if they are going to plant some seeds? Jade Mask responds they are going to scatter the Jade Mold spores. Dr. Muto is upset, what will happen to humanity? Jade Mask replies, every single human will become a Jade Doll and die. Peggy and the scientists are upset. Jade Mask tells them Black Cross Army's mission is to destroy Earth and eliminate humanity. Jade Mask yells at the Zolders to get ready and leaves. Dr. Muto tells Peggy, we can't let them fly the hot air balloon! It will be a disaster. Peggy wishes she had the Communication Device, then she could call for help. Soon, the hot air balloon is filled and ready to be released. Jade Mask informs the Zolders, as long as the hot air balloon flies, their plan will succeed. The hot air balloon is released. Peggy, Dr. Muto and the other scientists watch in dismay. Peggy soon comes up with a plan. As one of the Zolders brag, Peggy removes a sharp Spike Hairpin from her scalp. She throws it at a Zolder and knocks it out. Peggy fights the other Zolders. Peggy wrestles a gun away from a Zolder and fires it at them. Mido Ranger and Ki Ranger open the cellar's window and look inside. Ki Ranger quickly drops down a ladder for them. Peggy tells Dr. Muto and the scientists to hurry. Dr. Muto and the scientists quickly climb up the ladder. Mido Ranger helps the scientists out as Ki Ranger holds the ladder steady. Dr. Muto and his scientists quickly run but stop when they see the hot air balloon above them. Momo Ranger joins the group and tells them they need to bring down the balloon. Mido Ranger is ready to strike the hot air balloon with his Midomerang. Aka Ranger runs up and yells at Mido Ranger to wait. Aka Ranger joins the group and warns them if they make the balloon drop, the mold will spread everywhere. Momo Ranger points out if they leave it, they will scatter the mold too. Jade Mask shouts out to them from above. He gloats, no matter how hard you try, you can't stop the balloon! Two Zolders are in the hot air balloon and once it reaches a certain point, they are to press a button. Out of the clouds, Variblune appears and quickly gets close to the hot air balloon. Ao Ranger flies out of Variblune with his Birdies and into the hot air balloon. Ao Ranger fights the two Zolders, striking them several times. One of the Zolders grabs Ao Ranger from behind and the two struggle which causes the hot air balloon to bounce around. Ao Ranger breaks free and lands a blow on the Zolder's back. Ao Ranger strikes the other Zolder several times. In the fields below, Jade Mask and several Zolders watch anxiously. Ao Ranger knocks both of the Zolders out of the basket. Ao Ranger finds the control box and with a few quick adjustments, disables the box. Ao Ranger unravels a banner, which states, too bad your plan failed. Jade Mask is furious. A battle follows and Jade Mask is destroyed by the Gorengers and their Gorenger Storm. Afterwards, Dr. Muto is able to go back with his scientists to conduct more studies on various molds.
