Plot

edit

While on a morning jog, Gai Ikari witnesses the sky turn dark as a massive flying ghost ship emerges from the clouds. Summoning his mecha GouZyu Rex to investigate, he is shocked further when he is attacked by a giant copy of his fellow Gokaigers' mecha GokaiOh, Fake GokaiOh, which defeats him before retreating to the ghost ship. Meanwhile, his crewmates discover the phenomenon and identify the ship as a space-faring ghost ship said to carry a fabled treasure known as the "God Eye", which grants its owner any wish. Seeing this as a better alternative to the Greatest Treasure in the Universe, the Gokaigers embark on a voyage to the ghost ship to acquire the God Eye despite the risks.

Upon reaching the ship, they are harassed by a trio of ghosts that unknowingly lead them to the bridge and the God Eye. However, they are stopped by the ship's undead captain, Los Dark, who sends them to an underworld-like pocket dimension, intending to use their souls to resurrect himself so he can use the God Eye. After fighting two consecutive waves of their Super Sentai predecessors' defeated enemies' ghosts, the Gokaigers realize they have no chance of surviving if this continues on. Choosing to stay behind as a distraction, most of the Gokaigers fight the third wave while their leader, Captain Marvelous, reaches a portal leading back to the ghost ship. After Los Dark closes the portal, Marvelous fights him to retrieve the God Eye and uses it to bring his crewmates back. While his wish is granted, the item shatters soon after.

Realizing the God Eye was a fake, the Gokaigers overpower Los Dark, who summons Fake GokaiOh to kill them in retaliation. They fight back with GokaiOh, eventually killing Los Dark and destroying Fake GokaiOh and the ghost ship. Later, while having a celebratory lunch, they are rejoined by Ikari, who is disappointed to learn the God Eye was a fake, though his crewmates assure him finding the Greatest Treasure in the Universe is more preferable.
