Mega Blast/Round 6

Once your (or both) Mega Blast have reappeared on the screen, two groups of eight Type 5 enemies will come flying towards them from the right side of the screen, while firing beams at them; once you have fired a shot at each of them to kill them, the fifteenth and sixteenth ones will leave two blue device packs behind. Once you've collected them your (or both) Mega Blast will start moving upwards as a third group of six more Type 5 enemies flies towards them from the left side of the screen (while firing beams at them) - and once you fire a shot at each of them to kill them, the twentieth and twenty-second ones will leave two more blue device packs behind. Once you have collected them (providing they have not scrolled off the screen!), a group of six Type 8 enemies will come flying towards you from the right side of the screen while firing projectiles at you; once you have fired enough shots at all of them to destroy their barriers and kill them, the third one shall leave a red device pack behind, but the sixth one will leave a green device pack behind. Once you have collected them, two groups of six Type 2 enemies will come flying towards you from the left and right sides of the screen - and once you have fired a shot at each of these to kill them, the eleventh and twelfth ones will leave two more green device packs behind. Once you have collected them (again, providing the third one has not scrolled off the screen), your (or both) Mega Blast will start moving to the right again as a group of eight Type 1 enemies comes flying towards them from the right side of the screen, while firing projectiles at them; once you fire off a shot at all of these to kill them, the eighth one will leave a fifth blue device pack behind. Once you have collected it two more groups of three more Type 2 enemies shall come flying towards you from the right side of the screen - and once you've fired a shot at each of these to kill them, your (or both) Mega Blast will start moving downwards as a fifth group of six more Type 2 enemies comes flying up towards them, from the bottom of the screen. Once you have fired a shot at each of these to kill them, the twenty-fourth one shall leave a sixth blue device pack behind; once you have collected it, two more groups of eight more Type 2 enemies will come flying towards you, from the left and right sides of the screen. Once you have fired a shot at each of these to kill them, the thirty-ninth and fortieth ones will leave two more blue device packs behind - and once you have collected them (once again, providing the seventh one has not scrolled off the screen), your (or both) Mega Blast will start moving right once again, as four more groups of six more Type 8 enemies comes flying towards them from the right side of the screen while firing projectiles at them. Once you have fired enough shots at each of them to destroy their barriers and kill them the twelfth, eighteenth, twenty-fourth, and thirtieth ones will leave four more blue device packs behind; once you have collected them, another group of six more Type 1 enemies will come flying towards you from the right side of the screen while firing projectiles at you. Once you fire a shot at each of them and kill them, you'll come to four Type 3 enemies, that are firing missiles (which can be blocked for 100 extra points apiece) at you from their positions upon the ground - and once you fire a shot at each of them to kill them the first, second and third ones will leave three more blue device packs behind, while the fourth one will leave a white device pack behind. Once you've collected these, you'll have to move up to avoid crashing into a platform at the bottom of the screen, as a fourth group of six more Type 5 enemies flies towards you from the right side of it while firing beams at you; once you have fired a shot at each of these to kill them, the twenty-fifth one will leave a fourth green device pack behind, but the twenty-eighth one will leave another white device pack behind. Once you've collected them you will have to fire a downward shot at each of the four blocks that make up a wall to destroy them, then move down to the bottom of the screen to avoid crashing into another platform at the top of the screen as you come to three more Type 3 enemies, that are firing missiles (which can again be blocked for 100 extra points apiece) at you from their positions on the ground - and once you've fired a shot at each of them to kill them, they'll leave three more white device packs behind. Once you've collected them, you will have to move up to avoid crashing into a third platform (which is again placed at the bottom of the screen) as a fifth, last group of six more Type 5 enemies comes flying towards you from the right side of it while firing beams at you; once you have fired a shot at each of them to kill them the thirty-fourth one shall leave another red device pack behind. Once you collect it, your (or both) Mega Blast shall undergo a sixth dramatic increase in speed (which, for the sixth time, means that a boss fight is approaching, and this one is arguably harder than the previous five) as the following text is displayed on the screen:

'EMERGENCY! B.W. PROGRAM ACTIVATED'

TARGET :CONFIRMED

DISTANCE :H.P 5A6A V.P 16B2

FILENAME :DISRUPTION

WEAK POINT ':ALL PARTS'' READY

"Cracker" (filename: Disruption) will now fly up into view from the bottom of the screen; it initially attacks by moving up or down until it's lined up with your (or the other player's) Mega Blast, then flies directly towards it while firing off ring-lasers at it before pulling back for another attempt. Once you have fired enough shots at it, it shall explode into seven pieces which shall rearrange themselves into the form of an enormous robot - and in this form, it attacks by trying to stay ahead of you while continuing to fire ring-lasers at you. As you are firing at its individual pieces in this form, they will start to crack and flash red, until they explode and reform again, four more times; once you've fired enough shots at all seven of its pieces to make them crack and start flashing red, it shall explode as the cracked, flashing pieces fall off the bottom of the screen. Your (or both) Mega Blast will then fly off the right side of the screen as the text "ROUND 6 OVER. NICE PLAY! GO TO NEXT ROUND." appears on it and proceed to Round 7 - which is the penultimate round of the game.
