Episode Title:
The Road to the Republic.
Episode Description:
After meeting success at Red River, the gang thinks that if they make it to the Republican Capital they may find a clue to Zoid Eve. Before they leave Captain Herman gives them a letter of introduction, while Irvine tries to take Zeke, but fails. Moonbay and the others stop by a near village to load up on supplies. Moonbay and the others go out to get some supplies. Irvine, Fiona and Zeke get separated from Van. Meanwhile, Fiona goes on a shopping spree for fruit and makes Irvine pay. Van and Moonbay get tailed by Rosso's gang and chased all over the village, and finally get caught. Irvine hears a gunshot in the village. He rushes and finds out that Moonbay and Van have been caught, they have been trapped and are tied around the Shield Liger's foot. Fiona tries to untie them but also gets caught, but Irvine manages to get Van and Moonbay free. Van and Zeke get in the Shield Liger. Then, Rosso shows up in his Red Horn and launches a devastating assault with all of his weapons on the Red Horn. Van survives after learning that he could put up a shield with the Shield Liger. He then rams the Red Horn and Rosso does the same. Van and the rest of the gang leave because the Imperial Army shows up. Rosso surrenders to the army only after telling everyone of his gang to leave. Rosso gets caught and tells Van not to get caught because he defeated the Desert Alcavaleno Gang.
