Once the Fighting Rays have reappeared on the screen and started moving forward for the sixth time, eight Flyers shall come flying down towards them from the top of the screen while firing pink lasers at them; once you have fired a shot at each of them to kill them, the Fighting Rays will suddenly speed up as four more Flyers come flying down towards them from the top of the screen while firing pink lasers at them. Once you have fired a shot at each of them to kill them, twelve Spinners shall fly into view from the left and right sides of the screen, while firing pink lasers at you - and once you have fired a shot at each of them 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 enough shots at it to kill it, it will leave a Speed Up ("S") powerup behind (but if either of you had collected all of those previous ones in the first two stages, it will display the text "FULL" instead of its regular letter and you will not be able to collect it); however, if you did not you will be able to collect it and once you've done so, eight more Flyers will come flying down towards you from the top of the screen while firing pink lasers at you. Once you have fired off a shot at each of them, to kill them, two Beam Cannons will come flying down towards you from the top of the screen while firing blue beams at you - and once you've fired enough shots at both of them to kill them, a second Capsule will fly down towards you from the top of the screen while firing pink lasers at you. Once you've fired enough shots at it, to kill it, it will leave a Defense ("D"), 4-Way ("F"), Homing ("H"), or Large ("L") powerup behind; once you've collected it, the number "999" (in the powerup's colour) shall appear under your score and start decreasing very quickly as five more Beam Cannons 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 a third Capsule shall come flying down towards you from the top of the screen while firing pink lasers at you - and once you have fired enough shots at it to kill it, it will leave a Wind Shot ("W") or Glow Shot ("G") 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 usual letter and you will again not be able to collect it). However, if you did not, you will be able to collect it, and once you've done it, sixteen more Spinners 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, eight 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, four more Spinners will come flying down towards you from the top of the screen while firing pink lasers at you - and once you have fired a shot at each of them to kill them, you will come to the Enormous Nucleus (which is only worth the 10 points for every hit you land on it). Once you have fired enough shots at it to kill it, it will explode and the Master Fortress will start exploding with it, as a fourth Capsule flies 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 Speed Up powerup behind (but, once again, if either of you had collected all of those previous ones in the first two stages, it will once again display that text of "FULL" instead of its regular letter, and you will once again not be able to collect it). However, if you did not, you will be able to collect it, and once you have done so, a fifth Capsule shall come flying down towards you from the top of the screen while firing pink lasers at you - and once you've fired enough shots at it to kill it, it'll leave a second Wind Shot or Glow Shot powerup behind (but yet again, if either of you had collected all the previous ones in the first two stages, it will yet again display that text "FULL" instead of its regular letter, and you will yet again not be able to collect it). However, if you did not, you will be able to collect it, and once you've done so, Teki Zensen Kichi (the game's sixth boss) will fly down into view from the top of the screen, as its battle begins; it initially attacks by trying to stay ahead of the Fighting Rays while firing blue bubbles at them from its bottom section, which you will have no choice but to aim for first. Once you have fired enough shots at its bottom section to destroy it, it will fall off and explode as it starts firing blue beams at you, from its lower centre section, which you again have no choice but to aim for next - and once you have fired enough shots at its lower centre section, to destroy it, it will fall off and explode, as it starts firing homing pink lasers and more blue beams at you from its upper centre section, which you'll once again have no choice but to aim for next. Once you have fired enough shots at its upper centre section, to destroy it, it will fall off and explode as it starts firing even more blue beams and more (smaller) homing pink lasers at you from its top section, which you'll yet again have no choice but to aim for last; once you have fired enough shots at its top section will to destroy it it will explode and the screen will fade out as you receive 10000 points for every bomb you have (the maximum is, again,70000) along with 10000 points for every life you have remaining (the maximum is 700000, but the only way either of you can receive this value if the arcade operator has set the "FIGHTER" setting in the game's options menu to "5", and the "EXTEND" setting to "150000 AND 500000 PTS", and you have not died at all, during the course of the game). You can now sit back and enjoy the ending sequence, which shows the two Fighting Rays escaping from the exploding Master Fortress - but you should remember that after the credits have finished, there is still one more stage, the "Extra Stage" (Challenging Area), left to go (which is basically the first stage, but you only have one life):

After the credits have finished, the Extra Stage will start; the fact that you only have one chance to do it in is reminiscent of the last area of Marvel Land, where Prince Paco only had one chance to escape from the death-trap of a theme park that gave the game its name, after he'd defeated the Mole King.
