After losing the power of the "Stone of Heaven" within him to revive Shadow Moon, Darom is reborn as Grand Mutant Darom (大怪人ダロム, Daikaijin Daromu), a trilobite-like creature. In this form, he can discharge laser beams from his fingers and use his feelers like ropes. Following Baraom and Bishium's death, Darom attacked the ex-Shonen Warriors until Kotaro arrives and fights Darom until Shadow Moon arrives, killing Black and sending Darom to find his corpse to obtain the Kingstone. Darom finds Whale Mutant's cave and learns that Kotaro had been revived. Darom and Bat Mutant then had some Gorgom worshipers capture Whale Mutant as bait for Kotaro. After Black threw himself in front of Whale Mutant, he then used his King Stone Flash to deflect Darom's attack before killing him with the Rider Kick.
