**[00:02] Nikki**
We finally have it!
**[00:04] Nikki**
Diamond!
**[00:07] Yo**
We actually made it from scratch!
**[00:11] Yo**
Now we're filthy rich!
**[00:14] Inami**
We're finally done! For now.
**[00:17] Yuzuriha**
They're as tiny as grains of sand, though.
**[00:20] Senku**
As tiny as they are,
they're ten billion percent diamonds.
**[00:27] Senku**
You can finally see it happening now.
**[00:30] Senku**
The resurrection of the happy Medusas.
**[02:13] Chrome**
Now that we have diamonds, do we just
need to shove them inside these things?
**[02:19] Senku**
Not quite yet.
**[02:22] Nikki**
We don't have nearly enough to get
to the size of a Medusa battery.
**[02:26] Nikki**
How do we make them bigger?
**[02:28] Senku**
No, there's no way we're making
big ones synthetically.
**[02:32] Senku**
Which is why...
**[02:34] Nikki**
Which is why...?
**[02:36] Senku**
We're going to dig for natural diamonds!
**[02:41] Inami**
So what was the point of making
all those synthetic diamonds?!
**[02:44] Kinro**
What was all that work for?
**[02:46] Magma**
I'll kill you!
**[02:47] Senku**
No, no, you idiots.
**[02:49] Senku**
We need both.
**[02:51] Senku**
Diamonds are just carbon.
**[02:52] Senku**
Coal.
**[02:54] Senku**
They're just like any other
rock you'll find lying around.
**[02:56] Senku**
It's when humans get involved that these
ordinary rocks turn into treasures.
**[03:05] Chelsea**
Here! Diamonds!
**[03:07] Chelsea**
Send an expedition team out from Xeno's
fortress, and they'll get there in a week!
**[03:12] Chelsea**
It's called Lassen Peak.
**[03:13] Chelsea**
It's a lava dome, and it's got shield volcanoes
and cinder cones and stratovolcanoes,
**[03:17] Chelsea**
and like, what is this,
a pizza with the works? LMAO!
**[03:19] Chelsea**
Who wouldn't explore there?
**[03:20] Chelsea**
The last time it erupted was in the
early 1900s, and it spewed kimberlite.
**[03:26] Chelsea**
I saw it! Kimberlite ore!
**[03:28] Chelsea**
It might not be much, but it's been,
what, a few thousand years? We're good!
**[03:31] Gen**
S-Sorry, what?
**[03:33] Senku**
She's saying she knows where we
can find some natural diamonds.
**[03:43] Yo**
We just made some diamonds,
and now we're digging for diamonds?
**[03:50] Yo**
Actual diamonds!
**[03:53] Senku**
Time for a fun quiz:
**[03:55] Senku**
between synthetic and natural diamond,
which do you think is stronger?
**[04:00] Taiju**
I know! It's the natural diamonds!
**[04:03] Chrome**
My money's on the proper crap
made with science!
**[04:06] Xeno**
Ah, here we go.
**[04:08] Xeno**
The peculiar belief that natural
is always better than artificial.
**[04:13] Xeno**
Ironic indeed.
**[04:14] Xeno**
To think that those who haven't been
inundated by 21st century information
**[04:18] Xeno**
would be more aware...
**[04:20] Senku**
Yup. The correct answer
is synthetic diamonds.
**[04:24] Senku**
Chrome gets ten billion points.
**[04:28] Senku**
Diamond is the hardest stuff in the world.
**[04:31] Senku**
You can only cut them with other diamonds.
**[04:33] Senku**
The synthetic stuff is even
harder than the natural stuff.
**[04:38] Senku**
We're going to use a ton of the synthetic
diamond grains to make sandpaper.
**[04:43] Ryusui**
Of course!
**[04:44] Ryusui**
We're using small synthetic diamonds
to grind down big natural diamonds
**[04:49] Ryusui**
and turn them into batteries
that'll fit snugly in the Medusas.
**[04:54] Joel**
So you just want me to make them the
exact shape and size of this sample.
**[04:59] Joel**
Leave it to a pro.
**[05:00] Joel**
I'll give them the most perfect
polish in the universe.
**[05:04] Nikki**
We're counting on you!
**[05:05] Nikki**
All we can do here is cheer.
**[05:08] Inami**
He's never going to get used to us, is he?
**[05:12] Senku**
Now...
**[05:13] Senku**
This will be the last
communication you'll hear
**[05:16] Senku**
from the expedition team.
**[05:19] Taiju**
But why?!
**[05:21] Ukyo**
If Stanley has gone around
South America to chase us down...
**[05:25] Ryusui**
He's a clever, persistent man.
**[05:28] Ryusui**
That's almost certainly the case.
**[05:30] Ryusui**
As its captain, I know exactly
where the *Perseus* is.
**[05:35] Ryusui**
They're almost here.
**[05:37] Ukyo**
Sending out radio signals nearby
would give our position away.
**[05:40] Ukyo**
We'd have built a stealth ship for nothing.
**[05:44] Senku**
The next time we connect again...
**[05:48] Senku**
is when everything is over and done with.
**[05:52] Senku**
Oh, Joel, we'll still hear your comms.
**[05:57] Senku**
Be sure to broadcast like mad when you
devise a way to make that diamond battery.
**[06:02] Gen**
*He's just barely concealing our actual plan.*
**[06:06] Gen**
*That we've come up with a way to make use of*
**[06:08] Gen**
* all these Medusas in*
* our fight against Stanley.*
**[06:23] Kaseki**
Let's say Joel manages to
make the diamond batteries
**[06:26] Kaseki**
and teaches us how to do it.
**[06:28] Kaseki**
How are we supposed to make them ourselves?
**[06:31] Chrome**
We don't even have the diamonds.
**[06:34] Chrome**
By the way, where is this stealth
ship even headed right now?
**[06:37] Chelsea**
I know! It's Araxá!
**[06:39] All**
Araxá?
**[06:42] Senku**
Bingo.
**[06:43] Senku**
Have a gazillion bajillion points.
**[06:46] Senku**
Araxá. A city in Brazil born of the big-ass
Amazon and ridiculously long rivers.
**[06:52] Senku**
The site of miraculous mineral veins.
**[06:54] Senku**
Rare metals of all sorts drifted
to gather at this stone sanctuary.
**[07:02] Xeno**
There are metals you
need for rocket building
**[07:04] Xeno**
that you can get here and nowhere else.
**[07:07] Senku**
There's tons of diamonds and other gems, too.
**[07:10] Senku**
That's where we're building
our super-alloy city!
**[07:14] Kohaku**
Of course.
**[07:15] Kohaku**
We've been meaning to
build a city there anyway,
**[07:18] Kohaku**
and it also happens to have diamonds,
**[07:19] Kohaku**
which we need to make the Medusa batteries.
**[07:21] Kohaku**
We're killing two birds with one stone.
**[07:26] Gen**
You knew this, didn't you?
**[07:28] Gen**
That this would be our final
destination in South America.
**[07:32] Xeno**
It's inconceivable that Senku
would miss any ingredients.
**[07:36] Xeno**
We're both rocket specialists.
**[07:44] Charlotte**
Do you hear some weird noise
coming from their transmissions?
**[07:48] Leonard**
It's definitely artificial.
**[07:51] Leonard**
The peaks are intentional and periodic.
**[07:55] Stanley**
It's riding on the youth
science team's radio signals.
**[07:59] Stanley**
Xeno's sending us a message.
**[08:01] Stanley**
He's sending out some kind of alert.
**[08:05] Leonard**
But an alert for what?
**[08:08] Leonard**
As long as we have our radar,
we'll have no trouble capturing them.
**[08:12] Leonard**
Our victory is at hand.
**[08:15] Stanley**
Radio jamming, stealth ship,
anti-radar missiles...
**[08:21] Charlotte**
No way!
**[08:23] Stanley**
Never say never.
**[08:25] Stanley**
I wouldn't put it past them.
**[08:28] Stanley**
Xeno's sending out an alert.
**[08:30] Stanley**
He wouldn't do it for no reason.
**[08:32] Stanley**
The message he blinked out at me...
**[08:36] Xeno**
*We're going to Araxá!*
**[08:39] Stanley**
Turn us around!
**[08:41] Stanley**
Stop the chase! We're going ahead of them.
**[08:43] Stanley**
To their final destination!
**[08:49] Suika**
Huh? We're already here?
**[08:53] Senku**
Nope.
**[08:54] Ryusui**
We're taking an overland mega
shortcut to the stone sanctuary!
**[08:58] [SONG] Text**
m 0 0 l 190 0 l 190 70 l 0 70
**[08:58] [SONG] Text**
Elevator
acquired!!
**[08:59] Chelsea**
Cool!
**[09:00] Gen**
Not cool!
**[09:02] Gen**
What kind of land route is this?!
**[09:03] Gen**
This is a mountain! A cliff!
**[09:06] Senku**
We just need to get past this terrain.
**[09:08] Senku**
We can whip out our bikes once we're through.
**[09:10] Max**
You call it an elevator...
**[09:13] Max**
but it's just a vertical ropeway!
**[09:27] Joel**
* Once I come up with a way*
* to make diamond batteries,*
**[09:31] Joel**
* the petrification beam is*
* forever in humanity's grasp.*
**[09:38] Senku**
We're getting some diamonds
and making some batteries.
**[09:41] Senku**
And then we're equipping ourselves with
the anti-Stanley Medusa machine gun!
**[09:49] Senku**
The final battle is deep in the Amazon...
**[09:52] Senku**
The stone sanctuary!
**[10:05] Ryusui**
Right in front of us are
**[10:07] Ryusui**
the rare ores that we're going
to need for rocket building, too.
**[10:12] Chrome**
How is there an insane pile
of gems just sitting there
**[10:15] Chrome**
like it's Earth's treasure chest?
**[10:18] Chelsea**
Lemme show you.
**[10:25] Suika**
The sand separated itself out!
**[10:29] Chelsea**
It's called gravity concentration.
**[10:31] Chelsea**
Whack, right?
***SIGN*** Gravity Concentration
**[10:32] Chelsea**
Like, the heavy rocks gather at the bottom.
**[10:35] Chrome**
So it's like how you collect gold!
**[10:38] Senku**
Do that on a planetary scale
for tens of thousands of years,
**[10:43] Senku**
and you get this place:
the miraculous ore vein that is Araxá.
**[10:47] Suika**
The whole planet,
tens of thousands of years...
**[10:49] Suika**
It's too big to wrap my head around.
**[10:52] Gen**
Yeah, the scale... I know.
**[10:55] Gen**
You know what they say.
**[10:56] Gen**
From Earth's perspective,
humans are just parasites.
**[11:02] Kohaku**
I don't know the first thing
about science, but if you ask me,
**[11:06] Kohaku**
humanity's been building up its
wisdom for millions of years,
**[11:09] Kohaku**
making use of all that Earth offers.
**[11:13] Kohaku**
That seems far more grand to me.
**[11:18] Taiju**
Well said, Kohaku!
**[11:21] Taiju**
You're right! Let's make use
of all of Earth's rocks!
**[11:25] Taiju**
Let's get to building our super-alloy city!
**[11:48] Gen**
Why does it need such a sturdy-as-heck tower?
**[11:54] Senku**
For our final battle against Stanley.
**[11:57] Gen; Suika; Luna**
What?!
**[11:58] Suika**
He's going to chase us here?!
**[12:01] Luna**
Th-Th-Th-They know we're here?
**[12:02] Luna**
I mean, not that I'm scared or anything.
**[12:07] Senku**
Xeno-sensei seems to have been doing
some naughty things on the radio.
**[12:12] Senku**
His nails were a tiny bit magnetized.
**[12:15] Xeno**
You were intent on
luring Stanley here anyway.
**[12:19] Xeno**
Either way, the result is the same.
**[12:21] Senku**
The same, my ass.
**[12:23] Senku**
We lost a shit ton of time.
**[12:25] Ryusui**
Right! It's a ship that we want.
**[12:29] Kohaku**
No, I have no idea why.
**[12:31] Kohaku**
What are you talking about?
**[12:33] Ryusui**
In order for us to voyage
across the great Atlantic,
**[12:38] Ryusui**
we're going to need a proper ship.
**[12:40] Senku**
The *Perseus* is our only option.
**[12:45] Senku**
We're taking Stanley down
and reclaiming the *Perseus*.
**[12:50] Senku**
Stanley's taking us down and
reclaiming their leader, Xeno.
**[12:56] Senku**
We're gonna have to settle it here.
**[12:59] Senku**
Our goal in this race is the same.
**[13:09] Hyoga**
How do you see our battle against
Stanley-kun playing out, Tsukasa-kun?
**[13:14] Tsukasa**
Hyoga, your wound from when you were
shot by Stanley hasn't fully healed.
**[13:19] Tsukasa**
And neither has mine.
**[13:22] Tsukasa**
Our only other attackers are Kohaku and Ukyo.
**[13:25] Tsukasa**
And maybe Max.
**[13:28] Tsukasa**
We would stand absolutely no chance
against a fully equipped US commando.
**[13:36] Kohaku**
It seems this is our only shot at victory.
**[13:44] Kohaku**
Our Medusa machine gun.
**[13:49] Suika**
It isn't getting far at all.
**[13:51] Gen**
Are we really going to beat
Stanley-chan's army with this?
**[13:55] Hyoga**
We'll certainly be sniped from far beyond
our range, and that'll be the end.
**[14:00] Chrome**
In that case...
**[14:05] Chrome**
*Fifty meters, one second!*
**[14:09] Chrome**
What do you think of this trap?
**[14:11] Chrome**
We can set them up everywhere!
**[14:16] Chrome**
*Fifty meters, one second!*
**[14:19] Kohaku**
Looks like it'll hit the wrong targets.
**[14:21] Kohaku**
We'll have to prepare quite a few.
**[14:23] Hyoga**
Our outcome will hinge drastically
on the size of our arsenal.
**[14:27] Hyoga**
How many petrification devices,
**[14:30] Hyoga**
rebooted with new diamonds,
will we be able to prepare?
**[14:52] Senku**
We'll polish the diamonds using a water wheel.
**[14:55] Ukyo**
Try to keep the heat down.
**[14:57] Ukyo**
We don't want to stand out.
**[14:59] Chrome**
That calls for Kaseki beast mode.
***SIGN*** Swole
**[15:04] Kaseki**
About that... There's a bigger problem.
**[15:07] Kaseki**
Our precious Medusas are a little...
**[15:18] Kaseki**
They're way too intricate on the inside!
**[15:21] Kohaku**
Is it even possible to open these
things without breaking them?
**[15:24] Chrome**
That's not all!
**[15:26] Chrome**
We're going to be replacing the
insanely tiny diamonds with new ones!
**[15:29] Ukyo**
Even our super watchmaker
Joel is having a rough time.
**[15:34] Kaseki**
There's no way we're making
a mass-produced machine gun.
**[15:39] Kaseki**
I don't know if we can get one or two
done before the enemy gets to us.
**[15:44] Suika**
In that case...
**[15:45] Ukyo**
Fifty meters, three seconds!
**[15:48] Ukyo**
One, two, three...
**[15:51] Suika**
And then it'll go bzzzt.
**[15:54] Senku**
Only if it has brand-new batteries.
**[15:57] Taiju**
I get it!
**[15:58] Taiju**
With Ukyo's bow and arrow, we can
take out a whole bunch all at once.
**[16:02] Ukyo**
If we have some idea of where Stanley is.
**[16:05] Ukyo**
Though, by the time they get close enough
for us to know, I'll have been shot.
**[16:11] Taiju**
I think that gives me an idea.
**[16:14] Taiju**
If we only have one petrification device...
**[16:17] Taiju**
I just need to run at them with
the device and petrify everyone!
**[16:24] Taiju**
One hundred meters! One second!
**[16:28] Gen**
So you're going to charge
at them and self-destruct?!
**[16:31] Taiju**
You just need to use some
revival fluid on me later!
**[16:35] Senku**
You'll ten billion percent get shot
before you get close, dumbass.
**[16:38] Taiju**
I'll just tough it out!
**[16:40] Tsukasa**
You'll just get shot in the head.
**[16:44] Chrome**
*Self-destruct...*
**[16:48] Chrome**
I think you gave me an idea.
**[16:51] Chrome**
For a surefire plan.
**[16:55] Chrome**
We all self-destruct together.
**[16:58] Chrome**
The moment Stanley gets here...
**[17:03] Chrome**
Three thousand meters, one second!
**[17:07] Chrome**
One of us stays super far away.
**[17:14] Chrome**
Then they just need to revive
everyone on our side.
**[17:19] Ukyo**
You're right, that's insane!
**[17:21] Kohaku**
But it's certain victory!
**[17:25] Ryusui**
There's just one problem.
**[17:28] Ryusui**
If our key person, who has the
petrification device, is shot first,
**[17:31] Ryusui**
not only does the whole plan fall apart,
**[17:34] Ryusui**
but in the worst case,
Stanley will take the device.
**[17:37] Senku**
Yeah, that won't be a problem.
**[17:39] Senku**
We'll cover that with science.
**[17:44] Senku**
In the watchtower goes the
Medusa and the speaker.
**[17:50] Senku**
We have mics all over the
place inside our fortress.
**[17:55] Senku**
The moment we're attacked, one of us just
needs to shout into one of the mics.
**[18:00] Chrome**
Three thousand meters, one second!
**[18:06] Kohaku**
Even the wretched calamity
that wiped out humanity
**[18:09] Kohaku**
is now about to be turned
into our guardian angel.
**[18:14] [SONG] Text**
m 0 0 l 226 0 l 226 70 l 0 70
**[18:14] [SONG] Text**
Fort Medusa
acquired!!
**[18:15] Senku**
Yeah.
**[18:16] Senku**
Now we just need to reboot the
petrification device, and we win.
**[18:24] Chrome**
How did you open the Medusa so cleanly?!
**[18:27] Kaseki**
With my extreme patient grit.
**[18:30] Kaseki**
I botched a whole bunch, though.
**[18:33] Gen**
So then, will it work a bit if we take the
diamond out and replace it like Joel did?
**[18:39] Kaseki**
I tried it, but nope.
**[18:41] Senku**
Go figure. These things have
been around for millennia.
**[18:45] Ukyo**
Of course... The one that Joel has is new.
**[18:50] Kaseki**
Which means we're just going
to have to bust our asses
**[18:55] Kaseki**
to try and get these perfectly identical,
brand-new diamond batteries in.
**[19:05] Yo**
One meter, one second!
**[19:09] Yo**
It's not doing anything. You sure about this?
**[19:11] Inami**
Don't interrupt!
**[19:12] Inami**
Right?
**[19:15] Joel**
They should be perfect in shape and size.
**[19:17] Joel**
If my craftsmanship won't
cut it, no one's will.
**[19:22] Joel; Kaseki**
Maybe it can't be a normal diamond?
**[19:25] Joel; Kaseki**
How is it different?
**[19:29] Kaseki**
Joel hasn't said anything so far.
**[19:31] Kaseki**
All this polishing is feeling pretty pointless.
**[19:35] Kaseki**
I'm gonna keep going, though,
because I'm made of grit.
**[19:41] Senku**
It isn't pointless at all.
**[19:45] Senku**
Neither our specialist, Joel, nor you
with all your samples can make it.
**[19:51] Senku**
Which means we got something wrong.
**[19:54] Senku**
That information is worth its weight in gold.
**[19:58] Kaseki**
You're giving a proper pep talk for once, Senku.
**[20:02] Kohaku**
A pep talk?
**[20:04] Gen**
No such thing would come out of Senku's
mouth after ten billion years.
**[20:08] Luna**
Who exactly do people see him as?
**[20:10] Luna**
Although I guess it's true.
**[20:14] Ryusui**
He's merely stating the truth.
**[20:16] Ryusui**
It's the essence of trial and error.
**[20:19] Ryusui**
The accumulation of errors isn't
regression, it's progress.
**[20:22] Chelsea**
I know, right?
**[20:23] Kaseki**
Well, you can't have even the slightest
error in the diamond, right?
**[20:30] Chrome**
No, I think it's good.
**[20:31] Chrome**
The diamond batteries you're
making are tough as shit.
**[20:36] Chrome**
If anything, they're tougher than
the ones that were in the Medusa.
**[20:40] Kaseki**
Right?
**[20:41] Kaseki**
I'm hella awesome!
**[20:42] Kaseki**
I cut it so it won't crack at all.
**[20:48] Kaseki**
Of course.
**[20:49] Kaseki**
As a craftsman, I can tell you it's easy to
cut it in a way that'll keep it from cracking.
**[20:56] Kaseki**
So why?
**[20:58] (Flashback) Xeno**
It's cracked.
**[20:59] (Flashback) Kohaku**
You're right.
**[21:04] Kaseki**
When you hammer the diamonds
from the Medusas *just* right...
**[21:12] Kohaku**
Every one of the diamond batteries...
**[21:14] Suika**
...split cleanly in half.
**[21:18] Xeno**
