If he could, Kraft would have loved to recreate the Spiral Tribe's miraculous Gunmen from the Dream Realm. Unfortunately, they involved something as mysterious as Spiral Power, which clearly didn't exist in the Marvel Universe.
Kraft was deeply indignant about this.
Who says we don't have Spiral Power?! Human DNA is obviously a spiral! A double spiral, even!
Although he couldn't perfectly recreate a Gunmen, fitting his Gundam with a drill was no problem. As Hayato Jin, one of Getter Robo's pilots, had said-
Drills are a man's romance!
When Ego saw Kraft driving his robot down into the ground, he panicked.
Their earlier clash had already taught Ego just how troublesome this robot with its Earth pirate motif could be. If Kraft broke through to the planet's core, Ego's life would surely be over.
So Ego not only controlled the blue-light tentacles to stop Kraft, but also mobilized the entire planet's soil, squeezing it toward the Crossbone Gundam as it continued descending.
Fluorescent green particles formed a shield around the Crossbone Gundam, blocking all the sand and rock pressing in from every side. But the blue tentacles of light weren't so easy to deal with. They wrapped around the Crossbone Gundam, preventing it from advancing toward the core.
"What was that system called again..."
Seeing that Ego's tentacles of light had blocked his advance, Kraft grabbed the thruster control lever beside him and pushed it all the way forward.
"Trans-Am!"
A vivid red glow spread over the Crossbone Gundam's entire body, and the particle output of the four GN Drives on its back instantly multiplied several times over.
Besides the GN Drives' built-in Trans-Am system, Kraft immediately activated the onboard λ-Driver System. As usual, he delivered a line to give himself a psychological cue.
