Not finding the QQV designs in their car, the fiends come to hear from the communication device, Azuma is the one carrying it; Mitsuko overhearing the conversation, has her doubts when they give the location out of their route.
Gangar then comes out of the ground to attack Azuma's team and calls for help, not knowing Daisaku and Minami are been held Prisoner; Mitsuko arrives and fends off the BF guards with the car, while freeing her two colleagues. Daisaku takes the chance to call and send Giant Robo to help Azuma's team with Gangar.
Robo arrives to face off Gangar and the Mechanical Giants fight, Gangar firing a projectile barrage from the palm; Robo responds in kind with its Finger Rockets. Gangar tangles Robo with a rope and the grabs it. Spider and his men take the chance to attack Azuma's group directly, but Minami and Daisaku arrive, with the former taking on the BF agents and protecting Azuma and the Design plans, while the later directed Robo with Gangar, able to shake off the Monster and breaking free from the ropes.
Gangar then tries to hit Robo, but the Robot avoids again and again until it crashes to the side of a mountain getting stuck. Giant Robo finishes its nemesis with Finger Rockets and Flamethrower, making it explode. Robo then helps round up the BF agents, though, and somehow, Spider still manage to escaped.
Afterwards, Azuma continues to transport the QQV unimpeded, with Minami, Daisaku and Giant Robo returning home.
