Though Long was apparently killed by SaiDaiGekiRin Tohja, he reconstituted himself within Sanyo's body. With a new interest in the Jūken power, Long assumes his true form to attack Jyan before killing Mere and then overpowering Geki Tohja Wolf and SaiDaiOh. Rio attempted to kill Long, who assumed his fighting form to overwhelm the Gekirangers before rampaging through the city. Gou, Ken and the Kensei hold Long at bay until the primary Gekirangers return, having mastered Rin Jūken, and seal Long into a small golden orb. The Dōkokugan sphere is later guarded by Jyan, who believes that blessing the Ringi on to former Jūken users will insure the seal remains intact for generations.
