This would turn out to be a distraction used so the Underground Space Chojin could gain Robin Mask's Memo which contained all of the weaknesses of the Justice Chojin. Once Hydra King revealed that he had the memo, New Black Rain and his allies would kidnap Robin Mask while he was distracted and take him to planet Hydra.

New Black Rain would stop Brocken Jr. from processing to save Robin Mask, fighting him in a one-on-one battle with New Black Rain beating him down until Robin Mask would use the last of his strength to reveal the weak points of the Underground Space Chojin, allowing Brocken Jr. to strike the weak point on New Black Rain's head, making him explode and killing him.
