Complete S.S. Zelbess

Next, you'll need to continue the main quest through S.S. Zelbess (Home World). After defeating the Sage of Marbule, talk to Nikki and accept his request to clear Marbule of ghosts. Note that failing to talk to Nikki will result in being locked out of being able to get rainbow weapons, so don't skip this step!

Earth Dragon Earth Dragon Isle (Home World)

Black Dragon Marbule (Another World)

After completing S.S. Zelbess, you'll need to defeat the 6 dragons. Make sure to bring Fargo with you so he can steal the elemental plates!

Note that it is not possible to defeat all 6 dragons before completing S.S. Zelbess and Nikki's request. The Black Dragon in Marbule (Another World) only wakes up and fights you when the two quests have been completed.

Complete Fort Dragonia (Home World)

It is also required to complete Fort Dragonia (Home World) and defeat Dark Serge first before you can get the Master Hammer.

After getting the Master Hammer from Marbule (Home World), equip it to Zappa and take him to Termina (Another World). Talk to Another World's Zappa with Home World Zappa in your party and watch the two blacksmiths forge a Rainbow Weapon.

Afterwards, they will inform you that you can now forge rainbow equipment!
