## Biography

### Number 1: The Troublemaking Phantom Thieves

At a mansion in a different dimension, a bunch of Gangler Kaijin are gathered together in the dining room for the celebration of the 999th birthday of their boss where one of them, Garat Nargo, talks with Namero Bacho about Ruletta Gerou’s recent death. Just then, the boss of the Ganglers, Dogranio Yaboon, enters the room with his general, Destra Majjo, and is then greeted by Goche Ru Medou. Dogranio announces to all the Gangler Kaijin that he wants to choose a successor to take his place but will only give it to the one who successfully conquers the human world. Garat Nargo becomes the first one to get the chance, so he uses his Collection Piece to burn down jewelry shops after robbing the places. Taking refuge at an abandoned factory, Garat talks with the Porderman about his chance to become the Gangler’s boss. The Porderman ask him about the Phantom Thieves, the same ones responsible for Ruletta Gerou’s death, but Garat is confident that he can take them on. While they’’re talking, Kairi, Umika, and Touma are spying on them through the vents in order to steal back Garat’s Collection Piece. However, Garat wises up on their espionage and gets the Porderman to shoot them out of the vents. The Phantom Thieves prepare their VS Changers as they Porderman start firing at them. They manage to shoot down all the Porderman, so Garat uses his Collection Piece to radiate streams of intense flames from his hands to burn the trio down. The Phantom Thieves continue dodging the flames until Kairi unleashes a bunch of calling cars into the air, making Garat burn them all in a barrage of flames. Being unable to see through the flames, Garat gets his arms caught by Umika and Touma, allowing Kairi to get up close to unlock his Gangler Safe. However, before Kairi could get up close, Garat reveals two extra arms from behind his old ones and slashes Kairi with them. He then knocks Touma and Umika down and grabs them by their necks, threatening Kairi to either leave now or die with his friends. As Kairi remembers the promise they made with each other, Garat unleashes his flaws at him. Kairi dodges the flames and shoots the ceiling above Garat and his friends. With the ceiling breaking apart above, Garat throws Umika and Touma to the floor and tries to swiftly destroy the debri but ends up getting buried. Garat rises out of the debri and notes how Kairi just let his comrades die. Kairi explains that he and his friends made a promise to continue gathering the Lupin Collection even if one of them died. However, he also notes that they wouldn’t just die and, sure enough, Umika and Touma rise out of the ground, revealing they used their VS Changers to shoot a hole into the floor to enter the room below before the debri could crush them. The trio then change into the Lupinrangers, with Kairi as Lupin Red, Touma as Lupin Blue, and Umika as Lupin Yellow, and start fighting Garat. The fight leads out of the factory and onto the nearby wharf where the Lupinrangers shoot at Garat with their VS Changers. Garat uses his flames but the Lupinrangers dodge them and then attack with their Lupin Swords. After a long fight, the trio shoot Garat down and Kairi approaches him to take his Collection Piece. However, they get interrupted by the arrival of the Global Police, Keiichiro, Sakuya, and Tsukasa, where it’s revealed they have their own VS Changers as well. By using their VS Changers, the Global Police transform into the Patrangers, much to the Lupinrangers’ surprise.

### Number 2: International Police, Chase After Them

The Patrangers start fighting with the Lupinrangers, much to Garat’s confusion over the situation. He attempts to escape but gets shot down by Kairi. Keiichiro, as Patren 1gou, closes in to finish the Gangler Kaijin off but Kairi stops him as Garat still possesses the Collection Piece in his safe. As the two fight with each other, Garat takes the chance and makes his escape as the Lupinrangers and Patrangers deal with each other, leaving behind the stolen jewelry in the factory. Later, Garat decides to plunder the whole city and starts creating chaos and destruction with his flames. He continues destroying the city area around him until the Phantom Thieves arrive and change into the Lupinrangers. They start fighting against Garat with their VS Changers where he retaliates with his flames. The Lupinrangers avoid the flames so Garat summons his extra arms to radiate his flames from them, but Touma and Umika use the pincher claws on their Lupin Blades to grab a hold on the extra arms while also grabbing a hold onto his regular arms. With all of Garat’s arms restrained, Kairi places his Dial Fighter on his Gangler Safe, decoding it, and takes the Collection Piece out. Just then, the Global Police arrive and transform into the Patranger with Keiichiro as Patren 1gou, Sakuya as 2gou, and Tsukasa as 3gou. The two teams start fighting as soon as the Pordermen arrive where Keiichiro starts fighting against Garat. Touma tries to stop him until Keiichiro mentions about fulfilling his promise to jewelry shop owners to take down Garat. Overhearing this, Kairi sympathizes with making a promise so he decides to pull away with his teammates to let the Patrangers take care of Garat. The Patrangers destroy all the Porderman with their Pat MegaBo and then fight Garat. Once Garat is down, the Patrangers decide to use a Collection Piece that have, called Good Striker, to finish the Gangler Kaijin off. Keiichiro places Good Striker on his VS Changer where it makes Sakuya and Tsukasa fuse with him into Patren Ugou. As one, they use Ichigeki Strike and fire at Garat, blowing him up and leaving behind his wrecked Gangler Safe. Seeing the fight from his mansion, Dogranio decides to give Garat another chance, so he sends out Goche. As the Lupinrangers watch over the Patrangers reaction of being fused, Goche arrives through a portal and uses one of her own Collection Pieces to launch a light bullet of growth energy through her left palm at Garat’s Gangler Safe. The Gangler Safe absorbs the growth energy, flies up into the air, and the growth energy regenerates Garat Nargo as a giant. With the Patrangers still struggling in their fused state, the Lupinrangers decide to take care of the giant Garat form this point on. The trio summon their Dial Fighters and board into them to face Garat. They fire at Garat’s body but retaliates with his Garat Missiles from his abdomen. The Lupinrangers try to avoid the missiles until suddenly, Good Striker flies off the Patren Ugou’s VS Changer, now being able to talk, and flies up to Kairi’s Dial Fighter. Saying that he’s in a good mood to help them out, Kairi places Good Striker on his VS Changer and launches him out to grow giant sized. The Lupinrangers’ Dial Fighters then combine with Good Striker to form into LupinKaiser. Garat launches more of his Garat Missiles at the newly formed giant robot, but LupinKaiser avoids them and even destroys some of them when flying around the city. Once avoiding all the missiles, LupinKaiser strikes Garat with Yellow Dial Fighter’s saw and shoots at him with the Blue Dial Fighter’s gatling gun. LupinKaiser then flies straight up into the sky where the Lupinrangers perform the finishing move, Rapid-Fire Down You Go Shot, where LupinKaiser forms a giant gun of energy and shoots rapidly at Garat with it until he eventually blows up, destroyed for good this time.
