It is the 26th century. With the policies of the Federal Government of Earth, mankind had expanded into the entire solar system by rapidly advancing military base construction. People were sent to constantly labor without rest as they were monitored by military officials. Then, in 2545, the federal government leader, Domesu, issued a command to invade outside the solar system. At the same time ten years earlier, the rebellious leader Domesu aimed to sentence Rudolf to be banished from the solar system. Rudolf finished his 10-year sentence. He formed the space defense force Gyruss in order to confront Father Domesu again. Is it really possible for Rudolf to walk the turbulent road to Domesu and save the solar system...？
