The Bomber Tournament is held every four years, and it's just about to begin. The victor has the honour of being declared a true Bomber fighter, but also the chance of being granted a wish by the tournament's symbol: a goddess statue that represents aspiration. And thus, a group of combatants with hope in their hearts have assembled yet again.

Shirobon / しろボン
page 22, "Characters"
平和を守るため、日夜戦う主人公。明るく元気で無鉄砲、人一倍正義感が強い。
ひげひげ団やパグラーを倒して、今はのんびりと暮らしていたポンバーマンたち。その彼等のもとに、ある日一通の手紙が届いた。その手紙は世界一のボン八一ファイターを決定する「ボンバー大会」の開催通知と参加を要請する大会運営委員会がらの招待状だった。
「大会に優勝すれぼ、世界中の人達が、悪い人に負けない勇気を持つにちがいない!!」しろボンは、くろボンを連れて、大会会場に向かうのだった。

translation
A protector of peace and justice who fights night and day. Light-hearted and passionate, he's often reckless in his role of serving out justice.
Having beat the Hige Hige Bandits and Bagular, he was taking it easy. Then, one day, he received a letter. It was an advertisement for the "Bomber Tournament", a contest of the strongest bomb warriors in the world, and requested his participation.
"I've had the courage to defeat evil for the wellbeing of the world; I can't say no to a competition!" thought Shiro, and so he and his comrade, Kuro, made their way to the Bomber Convention.

ろボンほど、お気楽ではなかった。「きっと大会参加者の中に

translation
A powerful fighter fuelled by the spirit of rivalry, though Shirobom treats him like he would a second son. Shirobom's backup leader [?].
Although he joined the tournament with Shirobom, Kurobom was not as at-ease as his partner. "There's bound to be baddies taking part in the tourney... who's to say the event organiser isn't a baddie too?"
The reckless Shirobom saw nothing wrong, but if there were traps lying ahead, someone had to watch his back for him! Kurobom was concerned about the tournament, but wouldn't know why unless he took part.
