Synopsis

When an Invader Robot proves to be impossible to beat due to a connection with Iron Claw, Banba goes on an investigation to outwit the CRIME leader.

Plot

At the CRIME's rebirth ritual, Iron Claw shouts "May the enemies of the three Buddhas shamelessly assist in this rebirth!" many times, in order to revive Chief Mantis with a telekinetic wave. As the ritual completed, Mantis suddenly revives, wielding an axe, yelling for Shine, to behold his power of telekinetic wave, noting Mantis is able to fight because of his telekinetic wave, setting the power circuit. Revived, Mantis deploys Crimes in motorcycles as Apache soldiers to take a counterattack. At ISSIS' base, Sakurai and Mizuki report there is nothing, asking how about they walk the perimeter just in case. When they walk, they saw an ISSIS soldier pierced by a ceremonial spear that used as a declaration of war, claiming it's CRIME Apache army who equipped with spears who attack ISSIS' base, and targetting ISSIS soldiers! Reporting to Banba, Sakurai alerts that was attack from CRIME, leading Banba to instruct Higashi and Daichi to move out at that location by Sky Ace. Still commanding the Apache soldiers, Mantis lets them to activate the explosives, celebrating their victory until it was short-lived due to sudden appearance of JAKQ, and fighting against JAKQ who interferes him, addresing Mantis' bark was stronger than his bite, as Jack swore he destroyed the source of his power.

When the ISSIS soldiers comes to target Mantis, he rallies to the scene, but they were really the mannequins, tricked by JAKQ until he faces JAKQ once again, telling the Apache soldiers to take cover while JAKQ executes JAKQ Machine Covack to destroy CRIME's scheme. Big One arrives, this time they deploy Big Bomber, aiming at Mantis, but it misses because his immortality to Big Bomber due to a powerful telekinesis by Iron Claw's power. Leaving JAKQ, Big One faces Iron Claw alone. At the field, Banba asks Iron Claw (in old woman disguise) about a man that had hair like Goemon Ishikawa around here, claiming he had never saw anyone like that until Banba leaves, but he was caught by an old woman, realizing is Iron Claw, supposing it was a little snake, taking a showdown once more. Banba thinks the one who was sending telekinetic waves to Chief Mantis was the old woman herself, facing Iron Claw one by one. Witnessing Mantis' return, Iron Claw minds about seeing JAKQ, noting it was not seen yet, telling him to be repaired on his power circuit. With the power circuit restored, he is completely back to normal, letting Iron Claw to describe a plan at ISSIS HQ.

Banba walks, detecting a signal from Tokyo Hotel Urashima, making his sense to infiltrate the perfect hiding place, while Iron Claw plans to attack ISSIS HQ with his strategy, to launch a surprise attack from the back as ISSIS' main entrance is heavily guarded; Mantis sees there's something weird on Iron Claw's hat: an electronic transmitter, claiming how Banba has done with it, leading him to take a woman disguise. When Banba as the hotel bellboy disguise knocks the door, he's here to service in her room, admitting him to change the cloths; Iron Claw changes in true form in a moment, changing back to woman disguise. The bellboy sneaks the room, spotting the photo of a woman as an inspiration for Iron Claw to disguise. Banba comes to a woman, but this time he grabs a red rose, offering it to a woman, but he admires something beautiful. A woman waits, this time he disguised as an one-eyed driver who offers a destination, as she want to go to Daisen-ji, to see the temple. She comes to the temple, but the driver spys at her, thinking if he winks, he won't be able to keep an eye on her.

Continuing CRIME's assault on ISSIS HQ from back, Mantis leads the Apache soldiers to take a strategy: Crimers jump throughout the window, spying Director Fujita who was seen before, killing him with a surprise attack! The officer knows Fujita was dead, this time by a CRIME Apache, until he was struck back as the other officers alerting to the HQ while he was killed by Mantis! Agents 9 and 10 hear the alert, so they move to this situation when Hime comes to serve curry as Hamster-kun claims the HQ is in trouble. The siege of ISSIS HQ happens once more, JAKQ arrives to stop CRIME's scheme, with Ace shot an Atom Shot on Mantis, then he was told by Iron Claw as a monk disguise to revive by telekinesis. When he use telekinesis, he was interrupted by Banba as begging monk disguise, leading him to face Banba one more time, fair and square. Banba spots an another babysitter who prays in a grave, and there's no doubt that's Iron Claw, and he shouldn't fight him there, until Iron Claw shows his true identity, persuading Banba too scared to scatter some flower petals.

Hime comes with bowls of ramen, but JAKQ denies him, telling him back to Matsuyama while he fell from his bike. JAKQ fights Mantis until he falls, but revived again with a telekinesis power, resulting JAKQ to continue the battle due to an immortality. When the women teaching the kids singing while spinning, Banba arrives once again, as a picture showman who orders the kids to come to see the picture show: JAKQ Dengekitai - Iron Claw vs. Big One, but it was expected to be the Agents 9 and 10. Banba claims how unfortunate Iron Claw is, parrying Iron Claw's attack, taking a showdown once more. Meanwhile, Mantis orders CRIME Apache army to attack ISSIS soldiers; Banba disguised again as janitor who wants to clean the bronze statue, splashing a water to stop a telekinesis. Iron Claw now is a bronze statue, was a babysitter, a Buddhist monk, a beautiful woman, snake catcher, and a kindergarten teacher. showing his true form, followed by Banba now as a janitor, was a one-eyed driver, a picture showman, even a begging monk, a hotel bellboy, showing his true form, and transforms into Big One, leading Iron Claw to withdraw.

Back to fight between JAKQ and Mantis, he commenced many Apache soldiers, fighting JAKQ, while executing Mantis Slice on Clover King, until Spade Ace throws his axe, and he was executed by JAKQ's Big Bomber Spiderweb Attack. Iron Claw's tenacity and ferocious attacks were no match the impenetrable defenses of Big One and JAKQ. However, Iron Claw was getting desperate. He will surely return for a counterattack.
