Inside the Thunder Arrow, Deszaras reminds his troops that in order for them to defeat Star Saber, they must release his fortress which was sealed away in the dark nebula. This will require a great amount of energy.



Deszaras is getting impatient -they still haven't collected enough, so they are spineless fools! He throws a fireball at them, and most of them run off in fear. Drillhorn, however, stands his ground, saying he sympathizes with his anger, but asks for calmness. He has a plan, but doesn't want to make Leozack look bad.



Deszaras doesn't care about that and tells him to state his plan. Drillhorn says that they are going to steal a tanker. The tanker is very large, and is carrying 100,000 tons of fuel. With their combined efforts, he says they will succeed. Deszaras likes the plan and tells Leozack to assist Drillhorn. Leozack says he will.



Gas stations across Marine City suddenly have no oil left to sell -their supplies have all mysteriously disappeared. As the shortage is reported on TV, the Cybertrons learn about it and decide that it must be the doing of the Destrons. Whenever there is an energy crisis, the Destrons are always involved somehow. Star Saber sends Blacker, Braver and Laster out to see if they can find anything.



The three Brainmasters arrive in the city, and check out the fuel stations. They find that the tanks have been broken into, and no fuel is left. As Blacker heads out, he happens to see Drillhorn burst out of the ground. He starts to follow him, but then Jallguar appears and shoots some missiles. Blacker avoids them and then chases after Jallguar.



Drillhorn makes his escape by crashing through a building, whilst Blacker loses Jallguar when he has to make a sudden turn to avoid running over a pedestrian. Blacker reports to Star Saber that the fuel theft was the work of Drillhorn. Clearly whatever the Destrons are up to, they want to do in secret. Star Saber tells Blacker to keep up his patrol work.



The Destrons learn that Mayor Burns has requested a tanker to come with more fuel from a neighboring state. Drillhorn wants Leozack to handle the fuel loading, but he tells Drillhorn where to go and that he should contact Mayor Burns. Drillhorn contacts him and says that when the tanker, Big Baron, arrives, he or anyone else is not to go near it. If they do, Marine City will be destroyed. Elsewhere, Kakuryuu is stomping through a street, when he comes across a car he thinks that he has seen before.



The car is Blacker, who transforms and surprises Kakuryuu, giving him enough time to get the Dinoforce member into a hold. Blacker wants to know what the Destrons are planning. Kakuryuu says he was just taking a walk, but when Blacker threatens to break his neck, he reveals that they have planted a neutron bomb. Before Blacker can learn where the bomb is, Gouryuu appears and starts shooting at him.



Yokuryuu then also appears, and Blacker has to back off. Braver comes to help out, but the Dinoforce retreat anyway. Blacker tells Braver about the bomb.



The Mayor tells Star Saber about what the Destrons have threatened to do, and is told by the Cybertron Supreme Commander to have everyone evacuate the city immediately. Soon all of the people are gone, so Star Saber leaves Wingwaver in charge at the Shuttle Base and then heads off to meet up with the other three Brainmasters. They all search the whole city for the bomb, but their scanners don't pick up a thing.



The next morning, the tanker is coming into port and the Cybertrons still haven't found the bomb. Star Saber says that they must continue their search, hoping to find it before the Destrons take the tanker. Unknown to the Cybertrons, the bomb is in the Mayor's tower. Blacker is sent out to the tanker to try and find out anything.



The Breastforce jump onto the tanker and quickly take it over. The Thunder Arrow then rises out of the sea and opens up at the front, and activates a couple of tractor beams to drag the tanker backwards. Leozack then has another idea and draws his gun on the humans, saying that they can lure the Cybertrons to them and destroy them. They will then blow up Marine City anyway.



He shows all the tanker workers the device he has which can set off the bomb any time he wants. He tells Drillhorn that this is how a plan really goes, and he should remember it well. Blacker, however, has secretly swam his way over to the tanker and has heard and seen everything. He drops down into the water and contacts Star Saber.



The Cybertrons head to the tower, as the Dinoforce appear to challenge them. Star Saber has Braver sent up on the V-Star, as he uses his scanner to find where exactly the bomb is. He ends up at the very top of the tower. Meanwhile, Blacker appears, so the Dinoforce transform into Dinoking.



Even he can't compete with Blacker and Laster, so Star Saber heads back to the tanker. As Dinoking crashes face first into the ground, Star Saber and the V-Star start an attack on the Thunder Arrow.



As the ship takes damage, the human workers leap into the water to escape, as Star Saber transforms and takes on the Breastforce. He takes Killbison hostage, so Leozack threatens to detonate the bomb. Star Saber responds by throwing Killbison into him, making him drop the detonator.



Star Saber gets the detonator, but is then attacked by all of the Breast Animals of his enemies. He drops the detonator, and Leozack gets it back. Leozack throws a spear at him, but Star Saber avoids it and then uses it to knock Hellbat and Jallguar off the ship.



The V-Star continues firing, and destroys the tractor beam devices at the front of the ship. This causes a large explosion, and Deszaras decides that the plan has failed and he must retreat. The Thunder Arrow takes off and leaves the area. Meanwhile, Dinoking continues to be battered, and is shot in the eyes.



He swings his axe around, but fails to hit anything. He's had enough and also retreats, taking the Pretender shells with him. Star Saber merges with the V-Star to form his larger robot mode, but Leozack still has his hands on the detonator and activates it to blow up the city.



He presses the button...and nothing happens. So he keeps pressing it and still nothing happens, and the reason for that is because Braver has completely taken the bomb apart, making it useless. And since he's failed yet again, Leozack transforms and flies away.



The Cybertrons watch the tanker head in towards the city, and only thanks to their efforts has it been saved.
