Master! It already left!

To think they'd really raid
the Shinkansen . How interesting.

Shit! Damn Akudama!

There's still time till it
picks up speed. Let's go.

Right!

"Akudama Drive"

The Shinkansen 's departure was unexpected,
but the raid was a success.

But it's no longer going as planned!

We still haven't failed, right?

We're on the Shinkansen . If we take
the vault, the mission's a success.

So your plan accounted for this?

Having a plan doesn't guarantee success.

However, we only have ten minutes left.

Any longer, and we'll plunge into the void
of doom--the Absolute Quarantine Zone.

But knowing you guys,
that should be plenty of time.



00:02:38,620 --> 00:02:41,040
Hah! It's more than enough for me!

In any case, we're short on time.
Shouldn't we hurry to the vault?

I-I think I know what that is!

E-Executioners?!

Did they piece together our plans?

The huge power outage
couldn't have given it away.

Your plan accounted for this, right?

It did not.

What?!

Brawler and Cutthroat can eliminate them.

Stealing the vault is futile with them around.

You talking to me? That was my plan all along!

I'd rather go with Swindler!

Huh?! At a time like this?!

Whatever. We're moving ahead.

Hacker, open the next door.

Hacking the Shinkansen ... Sounds fun!

Bring it on! I'm like a moth to a maim!

It's "like a moth to a flame," Bro!

Yeah! That one!

You're busted, Akudama.

Huh?!

This is gonna be fun!

I will execute you!

Tsk! You won't get away!

Looking away is a brawler's sin.

Wha--?!

Looking away is an Executioner's sin, too.

It's time for a revenge match!

The weakling again?

I'll execute your face!

You're wide open!

And so are you! I knew you
wouldn't take me seriously!

It's open!

Courier, let's go!

Courier?

We need my bike for this job.

Huh?

What are you doing, Courier? Hurry--

Wait, Mr. Black Cat.

If Courier says we need his bike
for this job, I'm sure we do.

All right.

So this is a freight car, too?

Damn Executioners!

If we don't get rid of them,
it's all for nothing!

00:04:52,330 --> 00:04:53,990
If we don't get rid of them,
it's all for nothing!

Mr. Black Cat...

In any case, let's make our way to the vault!

That way, at least we accomplished something!

That's true. Swindler is right.

Let's keep going.

Snatching a vault in a worst-case
scenario... This could be fun.

Which part of this is fun for you?!

Looking at your pretty face is way better
than fighting Executioners!

Mr. Cutthroat?

What are you saying?!
Stop the Executioners! You're a cutthroat!

Chill, lady. We don't know
what we're getting into.

Better to have backup than not!

You're right about that, but--

Courier, huh? Without your bike,
you're just a punk.

I never fail.

That is, no matter how shitty
the situation gets.

That dreadlocked gorilla! I'm gonna dissect him!

Stupid Pupil.

Doctors can be pretty useful.

But if I split you in two, can you heal that?

I've never been split in two before,
but I think I could manage.

But I know a guy who doesn't need doctors.

I ain't gonna lose to some prick with a weapon!

I don't want to hear it
from a meathead like you.

This one's more secure than the last one.

They don't want us to see
what's ahead? Interesting...

At this rate, we'll run out of time before--

The hell?! What was that?!

We left Kansai and it sped up.

In just five minutes, we'll enter
the Absolute Quarantine Zone.

What?! We can't steal it in five minutes!

We gotta try! We might as well since we're here!

She's right.

It won't be a problem if each of the four
doors takes an average of one minute.

Does it matter if we're dead?!

We'll all be dead? But before I die,
I was hoping to kill you...

But assuming each door gets
progressively harder to hack,

That's not funny! And by the way,
I don't see you doing anything useful!

the last door should take...

Hacker. What's taking so long?

This is the best time-limit game ever!

The greater the challenge, the greater the fun!

Stay outta the way of my work!

Hey, now. You hit one of your buddies.

We're not buddies.

But I'll hit yours.

You're mine, bro fro!

Let's get serious.

Mr. Brawler!

Ooh! It looks like a red sparkler!

It's open!

Let's go!

Mr. Brawler! Are you okay?!

Executioner!

Wicked! Wicked-enough-to-make-
Brawler-spit-blood wicked!

What are you doing, Swindler?! There's no time!

But he's seriously gonna get killed!

Maybe I'll have a go?

Huh?

Because if you stay, he's gonna kill you.
And I wanna be useful...

Plus... I saw red blood!

Stay out of it.

This is my fight.

Yo, Bro! Sorry you had to see me being so lame!

I'm gonna whoop his ass and
get 500,000,000 years like you!

Uh... Seriously?

I-I'm gonna whoop his ass, too, Bro!

Just wait till I get serious!

Seriously?! Hey, Executioner! You're dead!

Wha--?!

Plan to sleep forever, stupid Pupil?!

R-Right!

What is our duty?

To execute the dregs of society!

Then do your job! Those who can't
don't deserve the clothes!

Right!

You fit right in with those guys.

Shut your damn mouth.

Give it your best shot
so I don't have to get serious, Bro.

You sure? No take backs!
There might be nothing left of him!

Can't wait to see it!

But you just spewed blood.

Those who can't fight should get lost.

Huh?

I'll slice anyone who threatens your life.

Let's go, Swindler!

Don't die, guys!

Three minutes until Absolute Quarantine Zone?

I'll kill you all with time to spare!

What dirty eyes.

But since blood makes everyone equally pretty,
I'll make you bloom like a big, red flower!

Your 900 plus years wasn't for show.

This is...?

Shinkansen
Carriage 4: Second-Class Passenger Car

Shinkansen
Carriage 4: Second-Class Passenger Car

A passenger car, right?

For real? People ride on this, too?

It would seem that way. Let's continue.

It's open.

Shinkansen
Carriage 3: First-Class Passenger Car

Shinkansen
Carriage 3: First-Class Passenger Car

This one's the same?

Then it's true. It must carry people to Kanto.

I haven't heard rumors about it
carrying people. That's plain terrifying.

A while back, when I was
probing the Seal Center,

I discovered a profile of the Shinkansen .

Digging deeper, it seemed
tied to seals from Kansai.

Huh? You mean, it's somehow connected
to people from Kansai?

Hmm. I've never come across anything like that.

I wonder... I got blocked by their firewall
right after, so that's as far as I got.

But if there're passengers, that means
people have gone to Kanto before!

You're right. Why didn't I realize that?

At this rate, I'll make it to Kanto.
A utopia beyond compare...

I can finally say goodbye to crummy Kansai--

Utopia?! Far from it!

At this rate, we'll enter the
Absolute Quarantine Zone.

Even if you survive that,

there's a Decontamination Zone
that purges organic matter.

Huh? Decontamination Zone?

Basically, if you reach Kanto,
you won't be alive.

Mr. Black Cat... How much about
Kanto do you actually know?

That's something that doesn't concern you.

Kanto...

Idiot! It's pretty obvious
you're after your bike!

Crushing Akudama scum
and crushing Akudama skulls...

...gives us Executioners pride!

Tsk!

My eyes! What the hell?!

What was that?

It's something like tear gas. Here.

It's about time you quit being a feminist.

You shit!

Your cowardly tactics won't work on me!

In the end, putting women on top is how you win.

Sleight of hand?

I'll pull red out of your hat!

Don't dodge it! You'll ruin my trick!

Still, blood is so beautiful, don't you think?

Cutthroat is sick! With him around,
nothing's scary! Hmm?

I feel bad for my bro,
but I'll switch allegiances to--

Fear ain't a word in my dictionary!

And yet, I found myself shrinking back!

Unforgivable...

It's unforgivable!

Outta the way, Cutthroat! This fight is mine!

Him and I are putting our lives on the line!

Whoa...

I'll show you the difference
between spunk and skill.

I've figured out the control protocol.

So fast! He'll have it open in a jiffy!

It's a synchronized matrix with...

It's too late.

It's the Absolute Quarantine Zone!

Hello! Bunny here!

'Sup?! It's Shark here!

Shark, hey, Shark! You know about
the Absolute Quarantine Zone?

Nope! What's that?

Remember the war we talked about?

Yup! The one between Kanto and Kansai, right?

They dropped that huge bomb!

That's the one!

The new bomb ended the war!

But the ground, air, and water
were contaminated by the bomb...

...and made the blast zone
into a total disaster!

And that's the Absolute Quarantine Zone?

Yup! It's an area between Kansai and Kanto!

The Shinkansen has to go
through it to get to Kanto!

But, but! Wouldn't that mean
Kanto gets contaminated, too?!

That's what Kanto's Decontamination Zone is for!

It sterilizes and breaks down the toxins
and organic matter that comes through!

Whoa! That's a relief!

Now leaving the Absolute Quarantine Zone
for the Decontamination Zone.

See?!

You sure know your stuff, Bunny!

Five, four, three, two, one...

The End
Produced by
Kansai

Ouch!

I was so close, too! What just happened?!

We entered the Absolute Quarantine Zone.
There's no turning back.

Huh? I thought we were dead
if we went into the zone.

Even if you take the vault,
you can't go outside.

All that awaits is the Decontamination Zone.

Once we enter that...
everyone here will die.

Uh, so much for making it home safe and sound.

You phrased that oddly.

As if we have a chance if we finish before then.

Huh? Is that true?

Open the vault.

It's okay to open it?

It's fine. At this point,
there's not much choice.

If you open the vault before then,
we'll work something out.

Things just got interesting.

The game's back on!

What the shit?! What happened?!

Watch the language, shithead.

You are a feminist, aren't you?

I avoid killing outside of work.

But this is work. So?
What's your plan with the bike?

Ouchie! I hit my head!

That hurt! I quit!

Tsk! Didn't expect that.

Hey, hey! We're in the Absolute Quarantine Zone!

It's too late to execute us now!

Getting sat on like a horse...

...is a disgrace to my name!

Brawler?!

Damn Executioners!

It's open!

Let's keep going! If we get past this,
it's the front carriage!

Move!

That was close!

The defense system at last, huh?

I see how it is. Time for the
big boss, huh? Bring it on!

Sorry, but I don't want to die either.

It's about time I finished the job!

I said I'd put my life on the line.

This is... my win...!

Don't be so sure about that.

Tsk! You scum!

Is this the bonus stage?!

Courier!

Get off. It's hard to steer.

Didn't you know it's easier to drive
with a woman aboard?

I'm riding, too!

You're all maggots of society!

I expected more from a boss!

Hacker! Help the others!

It's crane game time!

Tsk!

This is for you.

I can't breathe!

Huh? What the--? What happened?

"To Kanto: 3 Minutes"

We're running out of time!
This is our last shot! Let's go!

Shinkansen
Carriage 1: Vault Car

Shinkansen
Carriage 1: Vault Car

Is that it?

How do we open this door?

Hacker! Open it up!

You love making me work.

So that's the vault?

It needs a seal to open it.
And a pretty special one at that.

"Locked"

Huh?! It won't open?!

Lemme try. I'll pry this baby
open with my fists. Argh...

Idiot.

Mr. Brawler!

One minute until Decontamination Zone.

Wh-What do we do?!

One minute until Decontamination Zone.

Everyone... You've done well. Thank you.

Mr. Black Cat?

It's all right. The final piece
to open the vault... is me.

Wait!

Huh?

This seal...

It opens up the vault!

Hurry, lady!

Huh?! R-Right!

Huh?

Ch-Children?!

Thank you. You've all done an excellent job.

We stopped?

Just like Black Cat said,
I guess things did work out.

Who in the world are you guys?

All done.

Then I take it you guys
were our objective all along?

I'm all better now!

It's just first aid.

That's right.

Um, I feel like you and Mr. Black Cat
have a similar voice.

Of course we do. I'm the one who controlled him.

Big Brother is smart.

That makes things easy.
This means we finished the job, right?

Hell yeah! I'm a frickin' billionaire!

Why are these little kids
being sent like goods to Kanto?

These coordinates are
our destination--Expo Park.
