Dr. Right is called to investigate why his robots went out of control, and as the army was not able to stop his robots, the household robot Rock allowed Dr. Right to remodel him into a battle robot called Rockman to help stop the robots. Later, Dr. Right and Rockman finds out that the Robot Masters were reprogrammed by the evil scientist Dr. Wily to conquer the world.

Orders to Destroy R

After the events of Rockman's Birth, the government decides to dispose the six robots of Dr. Light that where controlled by Wily because they are dangerous. Mega Man runs to the building they are located and is attacked by Air Man, Flash Man and several robots from Air Man's stage, while Wood Man is sent to rescue Light's robots and convice them to work for Wily, but four of them refuse and helps Mega Man to fight Wily's robots, while Elec Man and Ice Man goes with Wood Man to Dr. Wily's base. After Air Man's robots and Flash Man are defeated, Metal Man, Crash Man and Heat Man appear to aid Air Man, and Wily makes a broadcast. Mega Man goes after Wily's base using Item-2 and is chased by Heat Man, while the others fights against the other three Wily robots.
