## Biography

During a boat tour on a hover boat running on jet fuel, some of the tourist reveal themselves as Soldiers of an evil organization, Black Satan. One of them was one of Black Satan’s Kikkajins, Gangar. Gangar and the Black Satan Soldiers hijack the hover boat and have it head toward a different location as part of their operation. One the of the tourist tries to escape, but Gangar kills him. As the hover boat comes up really close to a beach, a man on a motorcycle, named Shigeru Jo, follows them after them. Upon seeing Shigeru, Gangar orders the Black Satan Soldiers to fight against him. The hovercraft stops at the beach and Gangar finds out that the boat was stopped by Shigeru’s partner, Electro-Wave Human Tackle, also know as Yuriko Mizaki. Tackle briefly fights with Gangar until he runs off and disappears. To find out why Black Satan wanted the hovercraft, Shigeru and Yurika investigate at a hotel where Black Satan’s high-ranking officer, Titan, tries to kidnap Yuriko. Shigeru manages to save her so the Black Satan Soldiers inform Gangar about this at the beach. There, Shigeru appears as Kamen Rider Stronger. Stronger fights off the Black Satan Soldiers and then fights against Gangar. Seeing the fight, Titan orders the Black Biker Squad to assist Gangar so he can retreat. After Stronger fights them off as well on his motorcycle, Titan tells Gangar to continue with their operation where they use flowers that spread their poisonous pollen to kill everyone. At the Atsumi Flower Center, Yuriko confronts the Gardener and says that she has seen him back at the hovercraft when Gangar disappeared, revealing she knows that he’s Gangar. When the Gardener reveals that he truly is Gangar, Tackle fights against him and some Black Satan Soldiers that have appeared. Tackle had the upper hand in the fight, but Gangar knocks her out and has her hung upside-down from the Satan Dome. He reveals to her that their operation is to grow poison flowers before sending them to local florists to spread their poisonous pollen to kill an entire town. Gangar prepares to have Yurok killed, but fortunately Shigeru appears and transforms into Kamen Rider Stronger to save her. Stronger then fights off the Black Satan Soldiers and fights against Gangar for the second time. Gangar hits Stronger with a really fast attack that he couldn’t see coming, so Stronger uses his Rider Video Signal to find out that the attack came from the spring-load Joey head on Gangar’s chest. So Stronger damages the Joey head with an electrified kick and hits Gangar with an electrified rider chop. Finally, Stronger uses Stronger Electro Kick, sending a flow of electricity through Gangar’s body and making him explode.
