After somehow defeating the Whale King, Van and Thomas find themselves in a mystery. Some people are stealing zoid parts which are still being developed. The weapons have their clear advantage, after finding it out against a couple of Heldigunners. Meanwhile, a Gustav carrying stolen zoid parts from both respective nations stops after it drops some of its cargo. Irvine piloting the Lightning Saix sees they could use a hand and jumps out offering assistance. Irvine finds out what they are carrying and demands an explanation but before that happens, he gets knocked out. He turns on his one eye video piece. He captures the general's face and is later used for military intelligence. When Irvine wakes up he finds out he is being accused of stealing the zoid parts and also his Lightning Saix has been stolen. After the officer in charge denies every one of his statements, they board a militaristic brown Hammerhead.
