A preview of the next SD Gundam Force book;

"You're lease on this castle is up!" Bakunetsumaru yelled, charging forward. Slashing his swords, he released an X-shaped blast of fire at the tower's guardian. "Prepare to be evicted!"

"We'll see about that!" The larger Musha Gundam yelled, "You don't know how powerful we are, foolish samurai! Bakuhammer!"

Bakuhamaru swung his gigantic hammer against the fiery X, and struck it so hard that the flames instantly dissipated. A purple ball of energy with a Japanese kanji inside appeared besides the warrior, and the Undefeated batted it with his hammer like a golf ball, sending several balls of energy at Bakunetsumaru. The Blazing Samaru was struck in the chest and sent flying over the next defense line, crying out in pain.

Zero, meanwhile, had avoided being hit by the opposite tower's giant mace. But was now in clear sight of Haganemaru.

"Hagane Iron Sphere!" The warrior yelled, closing himself into his spiked ball. He shot forward spinning rapidly, and rammed Zero in the chest. Gagging from both the impact and having the wind knocked out of him, the Winged Knight was also sent flying over the defense line. He landed next to Bakunetsumaru, who had just pulled himself out of the dirt.

Groaning, Zero got up and said, "That castle is quite a weapon… I must say, I'm not sure the two of us alone have the firepower to defeat it."

Bakunetsumaru stared at the moving castle and nodded firmly. "We have no choice. We'll have to ask Lord Buritenmaru for his help."

Zero looked inquisitively at his friend. "Can we trust this samurai?" It sounded like Bakunetsumaru did not like doing it.

"He's a brave warrior who once ruled half of Ark," Bakunetsumaru explained. He was just embarrassed about having to ask his lord and master for help after being missing for so long. He went on to say, "He's able to wear the legendary Bakushin Armor, worn only by those with a pure heart. He can also use the Tanega Rifle Tancho Crane!"

Zero had a vision of an adult Musha Gundam wearing glorious, ornate armor and carrying a giant gun the size of a tree over his shoulder.

A voice behind spoke up. "Hey, what are you two ding here, hmm?"

Turning around, Bakunetsumaru and Zero saw that they were being approached by several soldiers. The Blazing Samarui recognized them as warriors in Buritenmaru's army.

The soldier in the middle narrowed his eyes and asked, "Spying for Kibaomaru?"

Bakunetsumaru stepped forward. "We are not spies!" He said indignantly, "I am Bakunetsumaru. Guide me to Lordd Buritenmaru's camp at once."

But the soldiers pointed their spears at them.

"You can't be Bakunetsumaru, he's long gone!" The first soldier said suspiciously, "He's a ghost!"

Bakunetsumaru's eyes bugged out. "What?" Had he been gone for so long that they had decided he was Killed In Action?

Zero, however, found this funny. Laughing, he said, "Then this guy here's in big trouble!"
