Once the Fighting Rays have reappeared on the screen, and started moving forward again for a fifth time, twenty-five Flyers shall fly down towards them from the top of the screen while firing pink lasers at them; once you have fired off a shot at each of these to kill them, an Enormous Moth will come flying down towards you from the top of the screen while firing pink lasers at you. Once you have fired enough shots at it to kill it, four Spinners will come flying down towards you from the top of the screen while firing pink lasers at you - and once you have fired out a shot at all of these, to kill them, a Capsule will come flying down towards you from the top of the screen while firing pink lasers at you. Once you have fired off enough shots at it to kill it it shall leave a Speed Up ("S") powerup behind (but, if either of you had collected all the previous ones in the first two stages, it will display the text "FULL" instead of its regular letter, and you shall not be able to collect it); however, if you did not, you will be able to collect it, and once you have done so, another Enormous Moth will fly down towards you from the top of the screen, while firing pink lasers at you. Once you have fired enough shots at it, to kill it, the background will fade out - and once it has faded back in, ten Vinyl Bukuro and another Capsule will fly up into view from the bottom of the screen backwards, then fly down towards you, while firing pink lasers at you. Once you have fired enough shots at each of them to kill them, the Capsule will leave a Defense ("D"), 4-Way ("F"), Homing ("H"), or Large ("L") powerup behind; once you have collected it, the number "999" (in the powerup's colour) will appear under your score, then begin decreasing very quickly as five more Flyers fly up into view from the bottom of the screen backwards, then fly down towards you while firing pink lasers at you. Once you have fired out a shot at each of the Flyers to kill them, three Fortress Ships will fly up into view from the bottom of the screen backwards, then fly down towards you while firing pink and blue lasers at you - and once you fire off enough shots at each of them to kill them, a third Capsule and twelve Axes will fly up into view from the bottom of the screen backwards, then fly down towards you while firing more pink lasers and missiles (the latter of which can be blocked for 100 extra points apiece) at you; once you've fired enough shots at each of them to kill them, the Capsule shall leave a Wind Shot ("W") or Glow Shot ("G") powerup behind (but again, if either of you had collected all the previous ones in the first two stages, it will again display the text "FULL" instead of its regular letter, and you'll again not be able to collect it). However, if you did not, you shall again be able to collect it, and once you have done so, sixteen more Spinners shall fly up into view from the bottom of the screen backwards, then fly down towards you, while firing pink lasers at you - and once you have fired a shot at each of them to kill them, a fourth Capsule shall fly up into view from the bottom of the screen backwards, then fly down towards you while firing pink lasers at you (it will also be around this time that the number under your score decreases to "000", and the powerup wears off). Once you have fired enough shots at it to kill it, it will leave another Speed Up powerup behind (but once again, if either of you had collected all the previous ones in the first two stages, it will once again display the text "FULL" instead of its regular letter, and you will once again not be able to collect it); however, if you didn't, you'll once again be able to collect it, and once you've done this, two more Enormous Moths will fly up into view from the bottom of the screen backwards, then fly down towards you while firing pink lasers at you. Once you have fired out enough shots at both of them, to kill them, the background will fade out again - and, once it's faded back in again, twenty-five more Flyers will come flying down towards you from the top of the screen, while firing pink lasers at you. Once you have fired a shot at each of these to kill them, a fifth Capsule will come flying down towards you from the top of the screen while firing pink lasers at you; once you have fired off enough shots at it to kill it, it will leave another Wind Shot or Glow Shot powerup behind (but yet again, if either of you collected all the previous ones in the first two stages, it will yet again display the text "FULL" instead of its regular letter and you'll yet again not be able to collect it). However, if you did not, you shall yet again be able to collect it, and once you have done so, eight Falcons will come flying down towards you from the top of the screen, while firing pink lasers at you; once you have fired enough shots at each of them to kill them, you will come to two Enormous Cannons that are firing pink lasers at you from their positions on the left and right sides of the screen. Once you have fired enough shots at both of them to kill them, the first one will leave a Point (no letter) powerup behind - and once you have collected it for 3000 extra points, you shall come to three Type 2 Kurage that are firing pink lasers at you from their positions on the left and right sides of the screen. Once you have fired enough shots at each of these, to kill them, they will leave three more Point powerups behind; once you've collected these, for 9000 more extra points, two more Flyers will fly down towards you from the top of the screen, while firing pink lasers at you. Once you've fired a shot at both of them to kill them, you will come to three more Enormous Cannons and two more Type 2 Kurage that are firing pink lasers at you from their position in the centre of, on the right side of, and on the left side of the screen - and once you've fired enough shots at each of them to kill them the third and fourth Enormous Cannons, and both of the Type 2 Kurage, will leave four more Point powerups behind. Once you have collected them both for 6000 more extra points, four Axes will fly into view from the left and right sides of the screen while firing missiles at you (which can, once again, be blocked for 100 extra points apiece); once you have fired enough shots at each of them to kill them, six more Spinners will fly into view from the left and right sides of the screen while firing pink lasers at you. Once you have fired a shot at each of them to kill them, you will come to three more Type 2 Kurage (that are firing pink lasers at you from their positions in the centre of the screen) - and once you have fired enough shots at both of them to kill them they will leave three more Point powerups behind. Once you have collected them for 9000 more extra points, a sixth Capsule will come flying down towards you from the top of the screen while firing pink lasers at you; once you have fired enough shots at it to kill it, it will leave another Defense, 4-Way, Homing or Large powerup behind. Once you have collected it, the number "999" (again in the powerup's colour) will appear under your score and start decreasing very quickly, as you come to a sixth Enormous Cannon firing pink lasers at you from a position on the screen's right side - and once you have fired enough shots at it to kill it, four more Spinners will come flying down towards you from the top of the screen while firing pink lasers at you. Once you fire a shot at each of them to kill them you'll come to a seventh Enormous Cannon firing pink lasers at you from its position on the left side of the screen; once you've fired enough shots at it to kill it you'll come to two more Enormous Cannons and four more Type 2 Kurage that are firing pink lasers at you from their positioning in the centre of the screen. Once you fire enough shots at each of these to kill them the eighth Enormous Cannon and both of the Type 2 Kurage shall leave three more Point powerups behind - and once you have collected them for 9000 more extra points, six more Falcons will come flying down towards you from the top of the screen, while firing pink lasers at you. Once you have fired enough shots at each of them to kill them, eight Type 2 Walkers shall walk towards you from the top, right side, and left side of the screen while firing pink lasers at you; once you've fired enough shots at each of them, to kill them, you will come to two more Fortress Ships that are firing pink and blue lasers at you, from their positions on the right and left sides of the screen. Once you've fired enough shots at both of them to kill them, a ninth Type 2 Walker will walk into view from the right side of the screen while firing pink lasers at you - and once you have fired enough shots at it to kill it six more Falcons shall come flying down towards you from the top of the screen while firing pink lasers at you. Once you fire off enough shots at all of these to remove them, you'll come to a thirteenth Type 2 Kurage that is firing pink lasers at you from its position on the right side of the screen; once you have fired enough shots at it, to kill it, it'll leave a fifteenth Point powerup behind. Once you've collected this for 3000 more extra points, a sixth Capsule will come flying down towards you from the top of the screen while firing pink lasers at you - and once you fire off enough shots at it to kill it, it will leave a Bomber ("B") powerup behind. Once you have collected it you will come to eight more Enormous Cannons that are firing pink lasers at you from their positions on the left side, in the centre of and on the right side of the screen; once you've fired enough shots at each of them to kill them the eleventh one will leave a sixteenth Point powerup behind. Once you've collected this for 3000 more extra points you will come to two more Type 2 Kurage that firing pink lasers at you from their positions on the left and right sides of the screen - and once you've fired enough shots at both of these to kill them, they'll leave two more Point powerups behind. Once you collect them for 6000 more extra points, you'll come to five more Enormous Cannons that're firing pink lasers at you from their position on the left side of, on the right side of and in the centre of the screen; once you have fired enough shots at each of them to kill them, the eighteenth one shall leave a nineteenth Point powerup behind. Once you collect it for 3000 more extra points, you shall come to eight more Type 2 Kurage that are firing pink lasers at you from their positions in the centre of the screen; once you've fired enough shots at each of them to kill them, you'll come to three more Enormous Cannons firing pink lasers at you from their position upon the left and right sides of the screen. Once you've fired enough shots at each of them, to kill them, the twenty-third one will leave a twentieth Point powerup behind - and once you have collected it for 3000 more extra points, Kikai Wakusei (the game's fifth boss) shall fly down into view from the top of the screen as its boss battle begins. It attacks by firing turquoise and pink beams at you from its four front-mounted cannons (while firing spreading pink lasers at you, from its two side-mounted cannons) and its entire body is its vulnerable spot; once you've fired enough shots at it to defeat it, it will explode and fall to the ground, and you will receive 5000 points. The screen will then fade out and you will then, for the fifth time, receive 10000 points for every bomb you have (the maximum is 70000), and 3000 points for every Point powerup you collected during the stage (the maximum is 60000) - and you shall then proceed to Stage 6 (Master Fortress Area). There are only two more stages left to go now, but you should remember that you cannot continue upon the last one.
