The Gorengers had been notified that EAGLE Agent 0010 had obtained the Hurricane Diode from Wing Mask. Aka Ranger, on his Machine, along with Mido Ranger and Momo Ranger, ,on their Machine, were on the way.

As Wing Mask is driven away, he uses his weapon to fire at the three Gorengers running after them. Afterwards, Tsuyoshi uses binoculars to spy on Sea Moon, the ship that Wing Mask is on with Yuki. After a few moments, Tsuyoshi tells Peggy and Kenji that Wing Mask is using Yuki as a bodyguard, knowing that the Gorengers will be unable to lay a finger on him. Kenji is upset over the idea of using little girls as bodyguards. Peggy points out that it's Black Cross Army - they don't have morals. The three put their heads together and come up with a plan. Peggy manages to get Yuki off the ship, but she is under attack by Wing Mask and several Zolders. Kenji arrives on his Machine. He runs through the Zolders and arrives by Peggy's side. Peggy helps Yuki into the sidecar and tells Kenji to take Yuki somewhere safe. Kenji takes off. Soon, they are stopped by three Zolders on motorcycles. The Zolders rev their engines at Kenji. Kenji takes off in the opposite direction. He doesn't get far when several explosions take place where the Zolders were. Kenji gets off the Machine and stands protectively in front of it and Yuki. The Zolders drive past him. Kenji looks up and sees Variblune. Akira deploys the crane. As the crane is lowered, more Zolders arrive. Some are in a jeep and they fire at Kenji. The crane lowers around the Machine and scoops them up. Variblune flies away. After awhile, Kenji and Tsuyoshi are in Gorengers' Secret Base with Commander Edogawa. Tsuyoshi is worried because Peggy is late. Kenji suggests that she might have been caught. Yoko walks in to report to Commander Edogawa. Commander Edogawa asks Yoko if she has returned Yuki to her parents? With tears in her eyes, Yoko reports that Yuki is a homeless orphan. Her father was a sailor who died at sea. Kenji concludes that is why Yuki is always by the ocean. Tsuyoshi points out they have one hour left and that he will go.

Suddenly bars drop down, trapping the three Gorengers into a small area. Wing Mask laughs as he walks up to the bars. Aka Ranger tells Wing Mask they have stopped the Hurricane Generator. Wing Mask lets them know that was simply bait to catch them. Wing Mask pushes his robe to one side and reveals the real Hurricane Generator that is attached to him. The three Gorengers are stunned. Wing Mask walks away. A Zolder enters and places a bomb by the cell. The Zolder sets the timer and quickly walks out.
