History[]
Season 2[]
Makino Strikes Part One[]
Makino uses his powers to tear apart Jefferson Smith's N-Tek Jump Jet and incorporates its pieces onto himself to create a new battle mode. He later goes face-to-face against Max Steel and easily subdues him. After using various modes in sequence against the villain, Max manages to temporarily knock him down. While the hero is mocking Makino, the warlord wakes up and removes Steel from Max's chest. Ven-Ghan, using his ship, arrives just in time to save McGrath, and tackles Makino inside of a portal that he had created. The villains shrugs it off, stating that they could get "reacquainted" and flies off into the Makino Destroyer orbiting Earth.
Makino Strikes Part Two[]
Makino activates his Jet Mode while waiting for the Alphalink to pass through the wormhole. He launches various missiles at Ven-Ghan, who was attempting to capture Steel, but he dodges all of them. While Max and Steel recover, the hunter creates various portals around Makino and attacks him continuously. Max activates Turbo Speed Mode and joins the fight, but he is temporarily knocked down after being hit by a missile. Makino manages to weaken Ven-Ghan as well, and throws him to the vacuum of space.
While Steel saves Ven-Ghan, Max distracts Makino, but is hit by a missile. The villain uses his powers to incapacitate him and tear apart his Steel Suit and comments that he was about to put him offline "permanently". However, Steel links with Max and they turn the tide after unlocking Turbo Rocket Mode, giving them the upper arm in the battle. He subdues Makino and uses his cannons to temporarily incapacitate him while he shuts down the Makino Destroyer. After doing so, Makino attempts to fly back to Earth, but ultimately fails and goes inside of the portal.
