**[00:01] Chelsea**
So, like, we're racing the hell away
from our enemy, Stanley Snyder,
**[00:05] Chelsea**
as we're getting our hands on rubber trees?
**[00:11] Chelsea**
Fun! I'll take care of it!
**[00:14] Chelsea**
I know some places we can look in this area!
**[00:19] Senku**
We'll use it to craft some bikes
and rip through South America!
***SIGN*** The Escape
**[02:02] Chelsea**
We're here right now.
**[02:03] Chelsea**
I'll show us around some good spots for
rubber hunting in the waters around Panama!
**[02:07] Suika**
B-But if we spend so much
time gathering rubber...
**[02:10] Luna**
Stanley will catch up to
us in no time, won't he?
**[02:13] Luna**
Not that I'm afraid, of course.
**[02:16] Chelsea**
That's the thing, isn't it?
**[02:18] Chelsea**
It's a real pickle.
**[02:21] Max**
You don't know how
dangerous Stanley is, do you?
**[02:24] Max**
Not if you haven't seen Senku getting sniped.
**[02:28] Carlos**
The moment this boat is close enough for
their plane to reach us from the carrier,
**[02:33] Carlos**
we're screwed!
**[02:37] Senku**
Yeah, I bet.
**[02:40] Ryusui**
They have no reason to keep us alive,
now that they know the revival fluid recipe.
**[02:46] Taiju**
Come on, Ukyo!
**[02:47] Taiju**
Is there any way we can lose Stanley's ship?
**[02:50] Taiju**
Like... aren't there any radar
operator battle tactics you can use?
**[02:54] Ukyo**
No. I'd basically be transmitting our position
if I were to send out any kind of radio signal.
**[02:59] Ukyo**
All I can gather with my ears is that the
enemy radar operator is a true elite.
**[03:05] Ukyo**
They won't miss a single enemy blip.
**[03:07] Ukyo**
They're on us like a hawk,
even when they're matching our speed.
**[03:11] Ukyo**
*Won't miss a blip?*
**[03:14] Chelsea**
If only we had the Panama Canal...
**[03:17] Chrome**
The Banana Poop Bowl?
**[03:18] Francois**
Allow me to explain.

**[03:22] Francois**
Welcome to Francois's Geography Lessons.
**[03:26] Francois**
You can imagine how difficult it would be to
have to cross to the other ocean like this.
**[03:33] Chrome**
That would be insane.
**[03:35] Francois**
So, in the early 20th century,
**[03:38] Francois**
humanity chopped this
narrow part of the continent
**[03:42] Francois**
and connected the two
oceans with a waterway.
**[03:45] Francois**
That's the Panama Canal.
**[03:47] Francois**
That concludes my explanation.
***SIGN*** Francois's Geography Lessons
Fin
**[03:53] Chrome**
Are you serious?!
**[03:54] Chrome**
Scientific civilization
has the most insane ideas!
**[03:57] Chelsea**
We just need to go through there and
come out the other side, and we win!
**[04:01] Chelsea**
There's no way they're making it through a
beat-up old canal with their big-ass ship.
**[04:06] Taiju**
All right! So we're headed
to this Banana, er... Canal?!
**[04:11] Chelsea**
Too bad, though.
**[04:12] Chelsea**
It's been thousands of years. It's almost
certainly completely buried by now.
**[04:17] Senku**
That's it!
**[04:19] Ryusui**
We're splitting up into two teams:
one heading for the rubber trees,
**[04:22] Ryusui**
and the other for the Panama Canal!
**[04:25] Kohaku**
At sea?! How?
**[04:29] Gen**
So the Panama Canal team is a decoy.
**[04:31] Ukyo**
Yeah. Let's put up lots of decorations
and make our surface area convincing
**[04:35] Ukyo**
so that the enemy radar
operator can find us easier.
**[04:38] Ukyo**
The enemy radar operator won't miss a beat.
**[04:41] Ukyo**
He's going to catch us, even if we're a decoy.
**[04:44] Ukyo**
We'll use that to our advantage.
**[04:46] Kohaku**
But this so-called Panama Canal
is covered up, isn't it?
**[04:49] Senku**
Not ten billion percent for
certain, but just about.
**[04:53] Suika**
But then we'll get stuck
and gunned down by Stanley.
**[04:57] Senku**
Yeah.
**[04:59] Senku**
We'll have the decoy headed for
the Panama Canal shot and killed.
**[05:04] Kohaku**
No. I won't stand for such a plan!
**[05:07] Ukyo**
We have no choice.
That's the best course of action.
**[05:10] Kaseki**
Are you sure, Ukyo?
**[05:12] Kaseki**
You, of all people,
would normally be against it.
**[05:15] Kaseki**
How could you say that?
**[05:19] Senku**
It's goodbye forever, here and now.
**[05:24] Chrome**
With who?
**[05:31] Kaseki**
My lab car!
***SIGN*** Auto Pilot
**[05:39] Kaseki**
My dear, my precious!
**[05:42] Kaseki**
Senku! We made that together!
**[05:45] Kaseki**
Don't you adore it?!
**[05:47] Senku**
Dude, the shell is just a machine.
**[05:49] Senku**
We gutted the lab from the inside.
**[05:51] Kaseki**
Still! You're too emotionless
about this! Jeez!
***SIGN*** Votes that the lab car

**[05:59] Chelsea**
I guess even the Japanese crew are split.
**[06:07] Leonard**
The Youth Science Team's ship's
signature has split into two.
**[06:10] Leonard**
One is headed toward the Panama Canal.
**[06:13] Maya**
The Panama Canal? That's still around?
**[06:16] Charlotte**
There's no way anyone could know.
**[06:18] Charlotte**
But if it's still there, they'll go
through it, and we'll be screwed!
**[06:23] Gen**
Uh-huh.
**[06:25] Gen**
So the fruit of old human ingenuity, the
Panama Canal, is forcing you to go after them,
**[06:29] Gen**
even if we know it's a decoy.
**[06:32] Gen**
You get it, don't you, Stanley-chan?
**[06:36] Stanley**
You have no shortage of clever tricks, do you?
**[07:09] Senku**
This is it!
**[07:13] Luna**
It looks like an ordinary tree.
**[07:15] Luna**
This is the rubber we're after?
**[07:20] Senku**
We put a cut in the rubber tree
and collect as much sap as we can.
**[07:26] Kaseki**
Hey, it's the same way we collected lacquer.
**[07:31] Kohaku**
Looks like a job for an Ishigami Village native.
**[07:34] Suika**
I've done this before!
**[07:52] Xeno**
You're sure?
**[07:54] Xeno**
Do you really want to give your
hostage a potential weapon?
**[07:57] Gen**
You're a super science man, Xeno-chan.
**[08:00] Gen**
Why not help us make rubber?
**[08:03] Gen**
I mean, if our vehicles don't work out,
you're gonna die with us anyway.
**[08:08] Gen**
Besides, you're no different from Senku-chan.
**[08:11] Gen**
You're absolutely honest
when it comes to science.
**[08:15] Gen**
Right?
**[08:20] Gen**
I'm not letting you near
the communicator, though.
**[08:24] Xeno**
Oh, what a pity.
**[08:26] Xeno**
It seems you aren't such a trusting fool.
**[08:40] Luna**
This is that sap we gathered?
**[08:43] Luna**
It's so jiggly, like Bavarian cream.
**[08:45] Senku**
Knead the crap out of it with sulfur
powder and vinegar to harden it...
**[08:56] Suika**
It's so bouncy!

Rubber
acquired!!
**[09:05] Kaseki**
What is this? What is this?!
**[09:07] Kaseki**
It stretches so much!
**[09:09] Kaseki**
Like, boing!
**[09:13] Gen**
Everyone from the 21st century
knows exactly what's coming next.
**[09:21] Gen**
I knew it!
**[09:24] Kaseki**
Chrome... Sowwy!
**[09:26] Chrome**
Rubber's awesome!
**[09:28] Chrome**
It's so fun!
**[09:30] Chrome**
It's just tree juice, and it stretches
and squashes like a spring!
**[09:34] Kohaku**
Uh-huh.
**[09:35] Kohaku**
It's an amusing material indeed, but it seems
too soft to be useful for any kind of crafting.
**[09:40] Kohaku**
What is it good for,
other than to entertain ourselves?
**[09:42] Luna; Chelsea**
Whoa!
**[09:44] Senku**
Yeah, you're right.
**[09:45] Senku**
Without scientific processing techniques,
**[09:47] Senku**
the godly material that is
rubber is just a fun toy.
**[09:51] Senku**
In fact, it was neglected for 200 years
after Columbus brought it back.
**[10:00] Senku**
We're processing it, Taiju.
**[10:01] Senku**
And you're in charge of the heavy lifting.
**[10:06] Taiju**
I haven't heard that in a while now!
**[10:11] Luna**
It turned into black rubber.
**[10:13] Senku**
Warm up some rubber with sulfur
and carbon powder in a boiler,
**[10:17] Senku**
then use Taiju's power to stretch
it out until it's all floppy.
**[10:20] Senku**
And then...
**[10:22] Senku**
Stamp it!
**[10:31] Suika**
It's making perfect ridges!
**[10:34] Taiju**
It's starting to look like the real thing!
**[10:37] Xeno**
You're making the inflatable rubber
parts separately, I presume.
**[10:41] Suika**
Obviously.
**[10:44] Kohaku**
Hey, Xeno, you're being mighty
cooperative for an enemy.
**[10:49] Xeno**
For my own safety.
**[10:51] Xeno**
I don't care if the Youth Science Team
destroys itself with shoddy science,
**[10:56] Xeno**
but I can't allow myself to go down with you.
**[10:58] Xeno**
Of course, with Senku at the helm,
I have nothing to worry about.
**[11:07] Suika**
It's all bumpy now.
**[11:11] Senku**
Now we put them into round molds,
along with wire and cloth.
**[11:17] Senku**
Heat them, then cool them,
and we have tire casings.
**[11:22] Senku**
Then we make rubber tubes to inflate them
from the inside and fasten them using wire.
**[11:31] Taiju**
Now I just need to pump it
up with my breath and grit!
**[11:36] Senku**
What? Just use a tire pump.

Rubber

**[11:40] Chrome**
Th-This is it?
**[11:42] Senku**
Yeah.
**[11:43] Senku**
It's the next-level leg of science,
with which we'll bomb through the fields.
**[11:59] Kohaku**
So this is rubber!
**[12:01] Kohaku**
It's way faster and comfier than bamboo wheels!
**[12:06] Ryusui**
We ought to be able to
take these tires off-road.
**[12:09] Senku**
Now we just need bike bodies.
**[12:11] Senku**
We're running out of time.
**[12:13] Gen**
We never have enough time, do we?
***SIGN*** Ka-blow
**[12:21] Max; Carlos**
What the hell, you old fart?!
**[12:23] Max; Carlos**
Why are you wrecking the ship?!
**[12:25] Kaseki**
I'm just borrowing some parts.
**[12:28] Senku**
We only have time while we're on the ship.
**[12:30] Senku**
We're crafting along the way.
**[12:33] Ryusui**
No telling how many days the
lab car decoy is going to buy us.
**[12:42] Leonard**
Four kilometers to the enemy ship.
**[12:44] Leonard**
We're within visible distance.
**[12:54] Stanley**
The way it moves...
**[12:57] Stanley**
It's an unmanned decoy.
**[13:06] Charlotte**
No one's coming out.
**[13:08] Leonard**
The real ship is the one that went south.
**[13:12] Stanley**
Reverse course.
**[13:13] Stanley**
Full speed ahead!
**[13:18] Chelsea**
We made it!
**[13:20] Chelsea**
We're here in Ecuador.
**[13:22] Chelsea**
This is where we get off!
**[13:28] Chelsea**
Yikes, this is bad.
**[13:31] Chelsea**
The desert came all the way out here?!
**[13:33] Chelsea**
Thousands of years is no joke!
**[13:35] Hyoga**
I'd say this makes it easier for us to ride.
**[13:39] Hyoga**
Though we won't have any cover along the way.
**[13:45] Suika**
W-We're breaking it all apart?!
**[13:48] Senku**
Yup.
**[13:49] Senku**
We aren't using this ship anymore.
**[13:52] Luna**
We're really rebuilding all our vehicles
as we cross South America, huh?
**[13:57] Ryusui**
Dismantle all the wooden parts!
**[13:59] Ryusui**
We'll burn them for fuel!
**[14:01] Carlos**
The wood?
**[14:02] Gen**
Fuel?
**[14:03] Carlos**
Our bikes are fueled by wood?!
**[14:06] Chelsea**
Holy smokes, that's awesome!
**[14:08] Xeno**
To be precise, we're burning the
wood and using the gas as fuel.
**[14:12] Senku**
We're making one boss bike and five mini bikes.
**[14:17] Senku**
We'll burn wood with the boiler
we take aboard the boss bike
**[14:19] Senku**
and stuff the charcoal gas in canisters.
**[14:23] Senku**
Then we slam the canisters into
the engines of the mini bikes.
**[14:27] Chrome**
Hold it, hold it, hold it!
**[14:29] Chrome**
The boiler's one thing,
since it's just an oven...
**[14:32] Chrome**
But six engines?!
**[14:33] Chrome**
It's gonna take forever to make all that!
**[14:35] Chrome**
Stanley's on his way.
What are we going to do?
**[14:41] Xeno**
Six engines... Charcoal gas...
**[14:44] Taiju**
Got the boiler!
**[14:45] Kaseki**
Got six engines!
**[14:50] Gen**
So that's why we have six bikes.
**[14:54] Ukyo**
Guys!
**[14:55] Ukyo**
The lab car's been gunned down.
**[14:58] Ukyo**
I can tell from the radar
coming out of Stanley's ship.
**[15:01] Ukyo**
It's reversed course.
**[15:02] Ukyo**
It's on its way here at full speed!
**[15:06] Ryusui**
The time limit is near.
**[15:08] Ryusui**
We're going to be working day
and night for days on end!
**[15:10] Ryusui**
Fire up your desire for the finished product!
**[15:51] Suika**
They're here!
**[15:53] Suika**
It's Stanley's ship!
**[16:06] Ginro**
*They're going to kill Senku and everyone else!*
**[16:09] Xeno Soldier A**
Surround them once you're ashore.
**[16:11] Xeno Soldier B**
Capture every last one!
**[16:15] Ginro**
Run, everyone!
**[16:51] Charlotte**
Bikes?!
**[16:52] Xeno Soldier A**
Where did they get those?!
**[16:54] Maya**
Did they make them during their voyage?!
**[16:58] Chrome**
Bikes are badass!
**[16:59] Chrome**
Why does it feel so good?!
**[17:02] Taiju**
Have we escaped Stanley's net?
**[17:05] Kohaku**
Not yet.
**[17:06] Kohaku**
We've only escaped the first net—
their demand to hold up!
**[17:10] Tsukasa**
Yup.
**[17:11] Tsukasa**
Their next net, long-range
focused fire, is on its way.
**[17:15] Senku**
But if we can bust through here,
**[17:19] Senku**
we'll be on our way to the source
of the petrification beam!
**[17:24] Soldier A**
Fire!
**[17:29] Xeno**
Don't you want to use me as a shield?
**[17:33] Hyoga**
Of course I do.
**[17:36] Chelsea**
You're merciless!
**[17:38] Gen**
Hyoga-chan's about the only one here who could
do that kind of thing without any hesitation.
**[17:42] Hyoga**
*It's odd, though...*
**[17:44] Hyoga**
* Xeno-kun is rather proper. Why would*
* he deliberately put himself in danger?*
**[17:51] Hyoga**
* It's almost as though he*
* wants to be at the rear.*
**[17:54] Ryusui**
Carlos, apologies for the
distasteful question...
**[17:56] Ryusui**
You were a driver before, weren't you?
**[17:59] Ryusui**
How about we put up a smokescreen together?
**[18:01] Carlos**
You bet!
**[18:02] Carlos**
I'm not a pro for nothing!
**[18:16] Charlotte**
Hold it, idiot!
**[18:17] Charlotte**
You're going to hit Xeno!
**[18:20] Suika**
They can't see anything now.
**[18:23] Taiju**
All right!
**[18:25] Taiju**
We've made it past the second net!
**[18:27] Suika**
We made it!
**[18:33] Kohaku**
They're coming!
**[18:34] Ryusui**
Form up single file in front of Xeno!
**[18:37] Tsukasa**
They're aiming for a head shot!
**[18:38] Tsukasa**
Everyone, lower your heads!
**[18:40] Gen**
Head shot?!
**[18:42] Gen**
But they can't see us!
**[19:04] Taiju**
They're hit!
**[19:05] Taiju**
Tsukasa and Hyoga!
**[19:07] Hyoga**
Not a problem.
**[19:10] Hyoga**
It isn't fatal.
**[19:13] Kohaku**
* Shoot at the bikes in the dust,*
* and Xeno will get shot in the fray.*
**[19:18] Kohaku**
* Which means his best move is*
* to take out our main forces.*
**[19:22] Kohaku**
* He quickly chose the cards to clear*
* and shot Tsukasa's and Hyoga's arms.*
**[19:33] Stanley**
Xeno will leave us with some hints to go by.
**[19:39] Stanley**
No matter the situation.
**[19:41] Stanley**
That's the kind of man he is.
**[19:45] Stanley**
Morse code.
**[19:46] Stanley**
With his eyelids.
**[19:47] Stanley**
Take notes.
**[20:00] Ukyo**
Engine noise!
**[20:01] Ukyo**
They're about to launch their fighter planes!
**[20:04] Ryusui**
So their third and most devastating net
is to fire at us from the fighter plane.
**[20:09] Suika**
Th-Th-There's no way we're escaping that!
**[20:13] Senku**
Nope.
**[20:15] Senku**
If they're in the air over the desert,
there's absolutely no way we survive.
**[20:21] Senku**
*If* they're in the air.
**[20:29] Luna**
It's coming!
**[20:34] Leonard**
What happened?!
**[20:35] Pilot**
I don't know!
**[20:36] Pilot**
The engine gave out for no reason!
**[20:45] Ryusui**
There it goes, finally!
**[20:47] Ryusui**
The time bomb of science!
**[20:49] Senku**
Yeah, we rigged it when we got downed in
the dogfight and escaped from the plane.
**[20:56] Senku**
What kind of idiot would leave a weapon
behind for the enemy to take?
**[21:03] Senku**
I filled it up nicely with
a gift of sugar water.
***SIGN*** Sugar Water
**[21:09] Carlos**
I've heard of that before!
**[21:11] Carlos**
When you put sugar water in gasoline...
**[21:15] Senku**
The cool part is that it still runs at first,
so they won't notice during checks.
**[21:19] Senku**
By the time they realize it,
the sugar's turned into carbon sludge.
**[21:24] Senku**
Any primitive engine will
burn up, and it's game over.
**[21:52] Chrome**
Yeah! We busted through all three nets!
**[21:59] Ryusui**
We're biking all the way across South America!
**[22:07] Senku**
Yeah. We're headed straight there.
**[22:11] Senku**
To the holy land of petrification!
