[00:17] Taiju
    You mean to say there's another scientist
    like you on the other side of the world,
[00:22] Taiju
    and they revived on their own, too?
[00:26] Senku
    It's not as though I have a monopoly on science.
[00:29] Senku
    The whole world's been sharing the knowledge.
[00:33] Senku
    Anyone who's interested can read up.
[00:35] Gen
    So someone started from
    a stone axe like you did
[00:39] Gen
    and made it all the way to a machine gun?
[00:42] Gen
    I don't think just being
    interested can get you that far!
[00:46] Ukyo
    Although, until we make contact,
    we're just guessing.
[00:51] Ukyo
    What we know currently
[00:52] Ukyo
    is that there's a scientist who appears
    to have revived on their own.
[00:56] Ukyo
    That, and...
[00:57] Senku
    ...that their science is just a teeny
    bit more advanced than ours.
[01:05] Senku
    At least, when it comes to military equipment.
[01:10] Ryusui
    And most importantly, they're ready to off us.
[01:23] Ukyo
    Engine noise!
[01:24] Ukyo
    From behind us!
[01:26] Ukyo
    Are they after us?
[01:27] Kohaku
    No. I've been keeping a close eye out,
[01:30] Kohaku
    but I don't see anything
    that looks like a boat.
[01:33] Kohaku
    We traveled this fast on this thing all night.
[01:36] Kohaku
    I doubt they could catch up to us that easily.
[01:43] Ukyo
    No...
[01:44] Ukyo
    This sound is...
[01:50] Yo
    You've got to be kidding me!
[04:02] Taiju
    Senku!
[04:03] Taiju
    Senku!
[04:05] Taiju
    Senku!
[04:08] Taiju
    What now?
[04:09] Taiju
    Wanna try waving hi?
[04:11] Gen
    I'm pretty sure we should
    be waving a white flag!
[04:14] Gen
    Maybe there's a chance we can
    talk it over like friends.
[04:18] Kohaku
    With someone who opened fire
    the instant they saw us?
[04:23] Ukyo
    I hate to say it,
[04:25] Ukyo
    but they wouldn't be flying so low
    if they didn't intend to attack us!
[04:29] Ryusui
    I'm flooring it! Hang on, everyone!
[04:31] Ryusui
    Full speed ahead!
[05:10] Kinro
    Incoming!
[05:37] Ginro
    Ow!
[05:39] Ginro
    It hurts!
[05:41] Matsukaze
    it's just a scrape. I'll be fine.
[05:43] Ginro
    Matsukaze!
[05:45] Ginro
    Matsukaze got hurt protecting me!
[05:47] Kinro
    Relax! It's not a serious injury.
[05:50] Kinro
    Besides, you aren't even the one hurting.
[05:54] Yo
    Fall! Fall!
[05:56] Hyouga
    You're wasting ammo.
[05:57] Hyouga
    Do you really expect to hit it?
[05:59] Yo
    But there's no other option!
[06:02] Yo
    We have nowhere to run!
[06:16] Kohaku
    It flew in front of the sun!
[06:17] Gen
    They're dead-set on shooting us dead!
[06:36] Senku
    You never know when something
    might come in handy, eh?
[06:40] Ginro
    What's that flask for?
[06:42] Chrome
    Hell if I know.
[06:43] Chrome
    We can ask him later.
[06:46] Senku
    Kirisame!
[06:52] Senku
    We're counting on your throw!
[06:55] Senku
    What do you need to make it happen?
[06:56] Kirisame
    Stable footing and a rope!
[07:04] Kirisame
    It's coming again!
[07:38] Stanley
    Wow.
[07:40] Stanley
    You got my engine knocking in one shot.
[07:49] Stanley
    I'm impressed.
[08:00] All
    We did it!
[08:02] All
    Yeah!
[08:06] Gen
    How, though?
[08:15] Xeno
    That would be acetylene gas.
[08:18] Xeno
    Harmless to the human body, but can stall
    an engine at just 1% concentration.
[08:23] Xeno
    Such an elegant countermeasure.
[08:28] Stanley
    Ah, a pyro-whatsit weapon.
[08:32] Stanley
    I might have learned about that.
[08:34] Xeno
    Pyrophoric.
[08:37] Stanley
    I wouldn't remember that.
[08:39] Stanley
    Not after thousands of years of being a statue.
[08:41] Xeno
    It can be made easily by mixing
    water and calcium carbide.
[08:45] Xeno
    Calcium carbide can be made by
    cooking coal and sea shells...
[08:48] Stanley
    Okay, got it.
[08:50] Stanley
    You can stop there.
[08:58] Stanley
    The enemy's got one.
[09:01] Stanley
    One of those clever science guys.
[09:05] Stanley
    One just like you.
[09:12] Ginro
    They might come back with more men!
[09:15] Ginro
    We should run away!
[09:16] Ginro
    Hurry!
[09:18] Ryusui
    Run?
[09:19] Senku
    Like hell we will. We're doing the opposite.
[09:22] Gen
    There's something lewd about your eyes!
[09:25] Kohaku
    Those two are giving off that vibe again.
[09:29] Kohaku
    They're definitely thinking
    up something naughty.
[09:33] Senku
    You saw where that plane crashed, didn't you?
[09:37] Senku
    We're headed there before they call for backup.
[09:57] Kohaku
    There's no one inside.
[09:59] Kohaku
    They must have fled already.
[10:01] Kohaku
    We could have intimidated them
    into giving us information.
[10:05] Senku
    Well, that drop is ours, then.
[10:07] Ryusui
    Yup. Finders keepers.
[10:10] Gen
    Ah... So that's what you were getting at.

[10:20] [SONG] Text
    (Damaged)
    Airplane
    acquired!!
[10:23] Senku
    The righteous Kingdom of Science is more
    than happy to take it off your hands!
[10:29] Senku
    We take enemy resources for ourselves!
[10:31] Senku
    Such fine tactics!
[10:33] Gen
    Your eyes aren't making it very compelling!
[10:35] Gen
    You just wanted that plane, didn't you?!
[10:38] Gen
    I mean, Senku-chan's face when
    he saw that plane earlier...
[10:43] Gen
    I could hear his heart screaming.
[10:45] Gen
    He was saying it with his eyes.
[10:47] Gen
    "This is exhilarating," he said.
[10:51] Senku
    Yup.
[10:54] Senku
    I sure was.
[11:02] Kohaku
    Senku.
[11:04] Kohaku
    I found something rather fascinating on
    this so-called "airplane" that we took.
[11:12] Ryusui
    This is fantastic!
[11:15] Tsukasa
    Those would be corn kernels and leaves.
[11:17] Ukyo
    That's right...
[11:19] Ukyo
    The enemy sent a plane after us.
[11:22] Ukyo
    That means there has to be a relatively level,
    open field nearby that would serve as a runway.
[11:28] Taiju
    I see! A cornfield runway!
[11:31] Tsukasa
    In theory, we should retreat
    after an ambush.
[11:37] Tsukasa
    But there's just too much to gain in pursuing
    them, even if it means taking a risk.
[11:42] Gen
    Pursue? Who?
[11:44] Senku
    Isn't it obvious?
[11:46] Senku
    We're tracking down the enemy pilot.
[11:49] Senku
    If we can find ourselves a cornfield,
[11:51] Senku
    we can skip over years of prepping
    the land and growing crops.
[11:56] Senku
    Don't forget why we're here.
[11:58] Senku
    We came all this way to find corn.
[12:03] Gen
    No, I mean, who's pursuing them?
[12:13] Chrome
    Between me the explorer, Gen the mentalist,
[12:17] Chrome
    and the eyes and bodyguard Kohaku,
    we make an unstoppable pursuit trio!
[12:21] Kohaku
    And we'd be found by the enemy
    if there were too many of us.
[12:24] Gen
    Yeah... I knew it.
[12:26] Gen
    I knew, but I asked anyway.
[12:35] Chrome
    Is this really the right way?
[12:38] Gen
    There's no doubt, Chrome-chan.
[12:42] Gen
    Look here.
[12:43] Chrome
    The enemy's footprints?!
[12:45] Chrome
    Damn, Gen, you're good!
[13:03] Gen
    Man...
[13:05] Gen
    Do you really need a mentalist?
[13:08] Gen
    This pursuit is too easy.
[13:14] Gen
    Hang on, this isn't right.
[13:17] Gen
    I think he's luring us in.
[13:21] Gen
    The enemy's a pro.
[13:25] Gen
    What an asshole.
[13:27] Gen
    Do you really want to play
    that game against a mentalist?
[13:31] (Flashback) Gen
    The poker game was super legit.
[13:37] (Flashback) Gen
    That's one thing I'm still bummed about.
[13:41] (Flashback) Gen
    Just a little.
[13:44] Gen
    I gotta redeem myself, you see.
[13:50] Gen
    Don't go even one step ahead of me,
    Chrome-chan, Kohaku-chan.
[13:56] Gen
    Follow me, both of you.
[13:59] Gen
    I'll make a trail of flowers for you.
[14:03] Chrome
    O-Okay.
[14:46] Chrome
    H-Hello.
[14:49] Chrome
    Is anyone there?
[15:06] Chrome
    Who are you?!
[15:07] Chrome
    Where did you come from?
[15:08] Chrome
    I didn't notice you at all!
[15:11] Chrome
    Yikes! No guns! Please!
[15:16] Chrome
    Is this a pat-down?
[15:18] Chrome
    I don't have any weapons on me!
[15:21] Stanley
    You're right, no weapons.
[15:29] Stanley
    But you've got all kinds of tricks on you.
[15:33] Stanley
    Who are you?
[15:40] Stanley
    A magician?
[15:41] Gen
    Something like that.
[15:43] Stanley
    Uh-huh, I can tell from your body.
[15:46] Stanley
    Only your fingers are well-built.
[15:49] Stanley
    At the very least, you aren't a combatant.
[15:52] Stanley
    Unlike your master samurai buddies.
[15:58] Stanley
    I was hoping to end them
    with a pre-emptive strike.
[16:02] Stanley
    Anyway, I have a lot of questions for you.
[16:08] Stanley
    You do, too, don't you?
[16:09] Stanley
    Come meet my leader doctor.
[16:43] Stanley
    We're here.
[17:03] Gen
    So this is the enemy base.
[17:18] Gen
    Here it is.
[17:20] Gen
    We found that cornfield, Senku-chan!
[17:28] Gen
    Tractors?!
[17:34] Gen
    Cows!
[17:36] Gen
    So they've even started dairy farming.
[17:43] Gen
    And there's that runway.
[17:47] Gen
    There has to be more than just that one plane.
[17:53] Gen
    But he'd never show me, would he?
[18:00] Gen
    H-Holy...
[18:02] Stanley
    Not there.
[18:17] Gen
    What is this? A factory?
[18:25] Stanley
    Yo, Xeno.
[18:27] Stanley
    I knew I'd find you here.
[18:29] Stanley
    Good news.
[18:31] Stanley
    The New World has its first guest.
[18:37] Gen
    Just like Senku-chan.
[18:41] Gen
    No, not at all.
[18:42] Gen
    He's a grown-up.
[18:46] Gen
    He's seriously a professional...
[18:51] Gen
    scientist.
[18:59] Gen
    What is this?!
[19:00] Gen
    Some mystery chemicals?!
[19:01] Stanley
    Quit freaking out.
[19:02] Stanley
    It's just salt water.
[19:09] Xeno
    Nice to meet you.
[19:18] Xeno
    I don't believe I've introduced myself.
[19:21] Xeno
    That man there, who has the peculiar
    habit of inhaling poison gas, is...
[19:26] Stanley
    Shut it.
[19:28] Stanley
    It's tobacco.
[19:30] Xeno
    Stanley Snider.
[19:32] Xeno
    Former soldier.
[19:33] Xeno
    Actually, current soldier.
[19:36] Xeno
    Working for us.
[19:39] Xeno
    I'm Doctor Xeno.
[19:41] Xeno
    Who might you be?
[19:43] Xeno
    Where did you come from?
[19:44] Gen
    Back off! Back off!
[19:46] Gen
    Why touch my neck?
[19:49] Gen
    My name is Asagiri Gen.
[19:51] Gen
    I used to be something of a magician in Japan.
[19:54] Xeno
    Japan?
[19:55] Xeno
    Hear that, Stanley?
[19:57] Xeno
    How magnificent.
[19:59] Xeno
    These gentlemen made the easterly
    Columbus voyage in this stone world.
[20:10] Gen
    Is this what I think it is?
[20:14] Gen
    Breath...
[20:15] Gen
    Perspiration...
[20:17] Gen
    An EKG reading...
[20:19] Gen
    Polygraph test?
[20:21] Gen
    Is this a lie detector of some sort?
[20:29] Gen
    Do you really want to play
    that game against a mentalist?
[20:37] Gen
    The Kingdom of Science...
[20:40] Gen
    They work us like hell!
[20:42] Gen
    The leader is especially brutal!
[20:45] Gen
    So I ran away!
[20:51] Xeno
    Surprisingly unflinching.
[20:54] Xeno
    He speaks elegantly and smoothly.
[20:57] Stanley
    So it's all true? What a guy.
[21:01] Xeno
    No.
[21:02] Xeno
    He's either incredibly honest
    or a very skilled liar.
[21:08] Xeno
    Don't worry.
[21:10] Xeno
    I like both kinds of people.
[21:16] Gen
    I'm gonna go ahead and work
    undercover, Senku-chan.
[21:21] Gen
    Wanna acquire this whole thing?
[21:25] Gen
    The entire revival fluid factory...
    The whole damn cornfield and all.
[21:31] Xeno
    So all we need to do is to take
    down this so-called science leader.
[21:38] Xeno
    And this scientist's name?
[21:41] Gen
    Welp...
[21:42] Gen
    I think I'm totally screwed!
[21:45] Gen
    If I'm being honest, Senku-chan's
    totally useless in battle.
[21:51] Gen
    Who's tough?
[21:52] Gen
    Who might offer to fight on our behalf?
[21:58] Gen
    The scientist's name...
[22:06] Gen
    is Taiju.
[22:08] Gen
    Dr. Taiju.
[22:10] Taiju
    This is exhilarating!
