**[00:04] Soyuz**
I-It's finally almost done, huh?
**[00:09] Suika**
It's the platinum that Kohaku and
the spy team worked so hard to find!
**[00:15] Senku**
And now we have the water
of the miracle cave...
***SIGN*** m 0 0 l 194 0 l 194 80 l 0 80
***SIGN*** Nitric acid
acquired!!
**[00:18] Senku**
We have nitric acid!
**[00:21] Gen**
Man...
**[00:22] Gen**
We were nearly wiped
out 3,700 years ago,
**[00:26] Gen**
and now on this island,
by that petrification beam...
**[00:34] Senku**
But now we can unpetrify anyone we want.
**[00:36] Senku**
In other words, the revival of
humanity is set in stone now.
***SIGN*** Kingdom of Science
***SIGN*** Petrification Kingdom
**[00:41] Senku**
It's the start of the Kingdom
of Science's counterattack!
***SIGN*** The Kingdom of Science's
Counterattack
**[02:21] Gen**
Now that we have nitric acid...
**[02:24] Gen**
Oh, yeah, didn't you mention gunpowder before?
**[02:27] Gen**
So we can make guns and stuff, right?
**[02:29] Senku**
There's no way we're making *that* much.
**[02:31] Senku**
Maybe if we could construct
a legit factory or something...
**[02:34] Senku**
Sadly, we're stuck making puny amounts
with janky makeshift equipment.
**[02:39] Senku**
We're gonna have to go slow.
**[02:41] Soyuz**
I guess we can't spend months waiting
to make enough for a war, huh?
**[02:46] Senku**
That's right.
**[02:47] Senku**
We aren't waiting. We're going straight in.
**[02:49] Senku**
We're going to slap our allies
awake as soon as we have
**[02:52] Senku**
enough revival fluid for each of them.
**[02:55] Senku**
First off, we're saving our god-tier craftsman,
Kaseki, so he can work on our drone.
**[03:10] Suika**
Th-They're getting dumped in the water!
**[03:14] Senku**
Of course they are.
**[03:16] Senku**
As far as they're concerned,
they're just useless rocks.
**[03:19] Gen**
Hang on, though.
**[03:20] Gen**
We couldn't save them if they were in
the middle of a well-guarded war zone,
**[03:24] Gen**
but this might be an opportunity,
since we can dive down to retrieve them.
**[03:28] Soyuz**
I-If we can find them.
**[03:30] Soyuz**
Including the bits that'll get washed away.
**[03:33] Suika**
The water currents...
**[03:34] Suika**
We need Ryusui, then!
**[03:37] Suika**
If Ryusui would come back...
**[03:42] Ibara**
His clothes are way too fancy.
**[03:45] Ibara**
He must be the boss.
**[03:48] Suika**
O-Oh, no!
**[03:50] Suika**
They took Ryusui with them!
**[03:54] Ibara**
Your uncle's got some
sad news for all of you.
**[04:00] Ibara**
There might be an invader among you.
**[04:05] Ibara**
We're gonna have to flush her out.
**[04:09] Ibara**
If you aren't friends with this statue,
**[04:11] Ibara**
you don't mind us breaking it, right?
**[04:22] Oarashi**
Okay, next!
**[04:24] Kohaku**
How dare you, you cruel...
**[04:26] Amaryllis**
No! No!
**[04:28] Amaryllis**
Hold it back!
**[04:29] Ginro**
Kohaku-chan, don't charge at them!
**[04:31] Ginro**
I mean, it doesn't mean he's dead
even if they break him, right?
**[04:34] Ginro**
He'll come back to life if we rebuild
him and pour revival fluid on him.
**[04:40] Senku**
*Oh, Kohaku...*
**[04:41] Senku**
I think you've got a statue headed your way.
**[04:45] Senku**
Don't worry about it. For now...
**[04:46] Gen**
Wait, you have a plan?
**[04:50] Ibara**
You there, little girl...
**[04:52] Ibara**
Kohaku-chan, was it?
**[04:55] Oarashi**
What's wrong? Can't you break it?
**[04:58] Oarashi**
Are *you* the intruder?
**[05:17] Gen**
Ryusui!
**[05:24] Kohaku**
Destroyed, as ordered.
**[05:26] Kohaku**
Problem?
**[05:28] Warrior**
No, I think I'm good.
**[05:30] Amaryllis**
Oh, look at you, Kohaku-chan,
making such a mess!
**[05:34] Amaryllis**
I'll clean it up for you.
**[05:37] Kohaku**
Nothing to worry about.
**[05:38] Kohaku**
Without Yuzuriha here,
**[05:40] Kohaku**
we wouldn't be able to restore him
if they smashed him into dust.
**[05:43] Kohaku**
I disassembled him cleanly with my hands.
**[05:48] Suika**
Hey, Kohaku and them sent
us a bunch of stuff.
**[05:54] Senku**
Hey, there's our first delivery!
**[05:59] Gen**
D-Don't tell me...
**[06:02] Gen**
Are they going to send us Ryusui-chan
piece by piece with the Nezumini 4WDs?
**[06:07] Senku**
What else could they do?
**[06:10] Senku**
We're using the petrification beam
to make a piecemeal prison escape.
**[06:14] Gen**
I've always known you were
ridiculously rational, but...
**[06:17] Gen**
But still...
**[06:18] Gen**
You're practically psycho at this point!
**[06:24] Otsubone**
Why are there so many rats today?!
**[06:27] Amaryllis**
I'm sorry!
**[06:28] Amaryllis**
I'm sure Kohaku-chan will catch all of them.
**[06:34] Kohaku**
Knowing Ryusui...
**[06:38] Kohaku**
Well done dismembering me!
**[06:41] Kohaku**
Thanks to you,
**[06:42] Kohaku**
I've earned the trophy of becoming
the first person to be revived twice!
**[06:47] Kohaku**
Is probably what he's saying.
**[06:48] Amaryllis**
You're delusional!
**[06:50] Ginro**
Honestly, he might actually say that.
**[06:57] Suika**
*Ryusui was the one who saved me.*
**[07:01] Suika**
* The enemy took his favorite captain's hat,*
* so I made him one out of paper.*
**[07:33] Gen**
Huh?
**[07:34] Gen**
What is this?
**[07:36] Gen**
Where's the usual "crackle crackle"?
**[07:40] Suika**
Yeah, after a few thousand years,
**[07:43] Suika**
the surface is too weathered for the skin
to turn back into cells, and it falls off.
**[07:47] Suika**
But for him, it's only been a few days,
so it hasn't weathered one bit.
**[07:51] Suika**
What we're witnessing now is the
*real* de-petrification reaction.
**[08:07] Ryusui**
Appreciated, everyone!
**[08:08] Ryusui**
Thanks to you,
**[08:10] Ryusui**
I've earned the trophy of becoming
the first person to be revived twice!
**[08:14] Suika**
Ryusui!
**[08:16] Ryusui**
Though, I'm not sure I'm the first.
**[08:18] Senku**
You're the first.
**[08:21] Ryusui**
Which means...
**[08:28] Ryusui**
It's statues we want right now!
**[08:30] Ryusui**
Am I right?
**[08:31] Senku**
Obviously.
**[08:32] Senku**
This dude catches on fast.
***SIGN*** m 0 0 l 148 0 l 148 80 l 0 80
***SIGN*** Ryusui is
revived!!
**[08:37] Ryusui**
Well done, Suika!
**[08:39] Ryusui**
You were the lone survivor
on the battlefield.
**[08:42] Ryusui**
You're already an accomplished
warrior of the Kingdom of Science.
**[08:49] Ryusui**
I have a rough idea of the current situation.
**[08:51] Ryusui**
You can always trust a sailor's instincts.
**[08:54] Ryusui**
We're catching the petrification weapon
as soon as the enemy tosses it.
**[08:57] Ryusui**
An aerial battle. Am I right?
***SIGN*** Bam!
**[09:00] Ryusui**
Am I right?!
**[09:01] Senku**
Nope!
***SIGN*** Drone!!
**[09:06] Gen**
It's such a wild plan, even the greed
master Ryusui-chan is speechless!
**[09:11] Ryusui**
No...
**[09:12] Ryusui**
I like it.
**[09:13] Ryusui**
Be faithful to your wants!
**[09:15] Ryusui**
That's what makes the Kingdom
of Science what it is!
**[09:21] Gen**
Is it just me, or is the
security kinda crazy?
**[09:25] Suika**
Even Ibara and the top
warrior Mozu are there!
**[09:30] Senku**
They're ten billion percent suspicious
that there's an intruder among them.
**[09:35] Senku**
We aren't getting a millimeter closer.
**[09:38] Soyuz**
H-How about we sneak in late at night?
**[09:40] Ryusui**
We can't search the sea
floor without daylight.
**[09:43] Ryusui**
And they'll catch us when we rise to breathe.
**[09:46] Ryusui**
Which means...
**[09:47] Ryusui**
we'll have to dive now!
**[09:49] Ryusui**
Let's go, Soyuz!
**[09:51] Gen**
That was a quick decision!
**[09:53] Gen**
So... I guess you and I were never even
considered useful for physical tasks.
**[10:14] Gen**
Yeah, of course that that would happen.
**[10:16] Gen**
No way you could dive that long.
**[10:17] Senku**
Then it's time for a fun southern
island scuba diving trip.
**[10:22] Senku**
We're making oxygen tanks.
**[10:36] Gen**
Why are you gleefully
taking apart the lab car?!
**[10:39] Senku**
We don't have time to build
the tanks from scratch.
**[10:41] Senku**
So we're reusing some parts.
**[10:45] Senku**
A pipe from the lab car.
**[10:47] Senku**
It's just a steel pipe.
**[10:48] Senku**
All right! I need a lid!
**[10:50] Gen**
Isn't that a bit too half-assed?!
**[10:54] Ryusui**
Don't tell me...
**[10:56] Ryusui**
You're using that as the oxygen cylinder?
**[10:59] Ryusui**
Can it survive the air pressure?
**[11:00] Senku**
Yeah, I've tried it before.
**[11:02] Senku**
Seal the flanges and solder
the seams tightly shut,
**[11:06] Senku**
and they'll just barely hold up
to about 100 atmospheres.
**[11:09] Senku**
Although it blew up a month later.
**[11:11] Gen**
I dunno what to think,
but then again, Senku-chan
**[11:15] Gen**
used to build hobby rocket engines and stuff.
**[11:21] Suika**
This is that "oxygen tank" thing?
**[11:25] Ryusui**
It looks like ass. Even for us.
**[11:27] Senku**
Unlike craftsman Kaseki-sama,
I'm just an amateur.
**[11:30] Senku**
The clunky look makes it endearing.
**[11:33] Senku**
We're gonna need a hella clunky pump, too.
**[11:35] Senku**
Maybe we can use the engine
pistons or something.
**[11:39] Suika**
He's taking it all apart!
**[11:42] Senku**
I'm swiping the regulator
to cap off the tank.
**[11:45] Gen**
You're going to make Kaseki-chan cry.
**[11:46] Kaseki**
My dear lab car!
**[11:50] Senku**
Don't underestimate Kaseki.
**[11:52] Senku**
He can just rebuild all of it once he's back.
**[11:55] Ryusui**
You're right.
**[11:58] Gen**
You two make yourselves
sound all sentimental,
**[12:02] Gen**
but Kaseki-chan's going
to be the one suffering!
**[12:06] Senku**
Now, all that's left is to shove
some air into it with the pump.
**[12:11] Gen**
Um...
**[12:12] Gen**
I have a bad feeling... A *really* bad feeling...
**[12:15] Gen**
Is this going to be another one of those
Kingdom of Science manual labor things?
**[12:21] Suika**
It's light enough that
even I can do it, though.
**[12:25] Gen**
No way.
**[12:27] Gen**
Oh, you're right.
**[12:29] Gen**
I was totally expecting...
**[12:30] Senku**
Yeah, at first.
***SIGN*** 2 atm
**[12:31] Senku**
It's about the same as a bike pump
up to around two atmospheres.
***SIGN*** 10 atm
***SIGN*** 50 atm
**[12:50] Senku**
Suika!
**[12:51] Senku**
Storing air also means storing heat.
**[12:54] Senku**
The pump's gonna heat up
like crazy and explode.
**[12:56] Senku**
Dump water on it!
**[12:58] Suika**
Got it!
**[13:01] Gen**
H-How much longer are we doing this?
**[13:05] Senku**
Let's see...
**[13:07] Senku**
Based on its capacity...
**[13:09] Senku**
Maybe about five hours...
times the number of pumps we have.
**[13:13] Gen**
I knew it!
***SIGN*** 10 hours later
**[13:24] Soyuz**
Th-The air pump blew up!
**[13:27] Suika**
It's over!
**[13:32] Senku**
No, it's perfect.
**[13:34] Senku**
We just need two of them.
***SIGN*** m 0 0 l 194 0 l 194 120 l 0 120
***SIGN*** Oxygen tanks
acquired!!
**[13:48] Soyuz**
*W-Wow.*
**[13:49] Soyuz**
*We're really breathing underwater.*
**[14:03] Gen**
How long are those tanks going to last?
**[14:06] Senku**
It depends on the depth, but probably about...
**[14:10] Senku**
ten minutes.
**[14:11] Gen**
That's it?!
**[14:15] Gen**
We spent ten hours pumping like crazy.
**[14:17] Suika**
And the pumpy thing blew up already.
**[14:21] Senku**
They're our first and last oxygen tanks.
**[14:23] Senku**
It's do-or-die in ten minutes.
**[14:26] Senku**
We have to find Kaseki at
the bottom and save him.
**[14:31] Ryusui**
*Ten minutes isn't long enough.*
**[14:33] Ryusui**
*We need some kind of hint.*
**[14:39] Soyuz**
* The enemy dropped the statues from the*
* surface at this speed, in that direction.*
**[14:49] Ryusui**
* How can you reconstruct*
* the situation that clearly?*
**[14:52] Ryusui**
*You're impressive, Soyuz.*
**[14:55] Ryusui**
*In fact...*
**[14:56] Ryusui**
* Come to think of it, having memories of*
* your infancy is no ordinary feat, either.*
**[15:04] Ryusui**
*But thanks.*
**[15:05] Ryusui**
*That information is worth a million!*
**[15:09] Suika**
I believe in Ryusui. He'll find everyone.
**[15:13] Suika**
He knows the sea better than anyone!
**[15:19] Ryusui**
*This is...*
**[15:28] Ryusui**
*It's a reef current.*
**[15:29] Ryusui**
* A violent rip current that occurs*
* at the edges of coral reefs.*
**[15:33] Ryusui**
* Which must mean all the pieces*
* were carried by this current.*
**[15:43] Ryusui**
*Everyone!*
**[15:45] Ryusui**
* My trusty sailors of the*
* Science Vessel Perseus!*
**[15:48] Ryusui**
*Well done sticking it out in this darkness!*
**[15:52] Ryusui**
*I'm giving you a work bonus.*
**[15:54] Ryusui**
*I promise all of you a massive drago reward!*
**[16:08] Suika**
Three jellyfish!
***SIGN*** 1 jellyfish: found a few people
2 jellyfish: found just Kaseki
3 jellyfish: found everyone
***SIGN*** 3 jellyfish: found everyone
**[16:14] Senku**
They've found everyone!
**[16:16] Suika**
Awesome!
**[16:18] Suika**
Now we can revive everyone!
**[16:21] Senku**
Yeah, but don't forget our priorities.
**[16:25] Senku**
If we don't wake up Kaseki the
craftsman first, we're screwed.
**[16:29] Senku**
We don't have any more oxygen tanks.
**[16:31] Senku**
This is our only shot at this rescue dive.
**[16:35] Ryusui**
*First, Kaseki, I want you!*
**[17:01] Ryusui**
*He's completely buried.*
**[17:03] Soyuz**
*Yeah...*
**[17:03] Soyuz**
*He won't budge at all.*
**[17:07] Gen**
Isn't it about time they signal
for us to pull them up?
**[17:12] Suika**
They haven't said anything.
**[17:14] Senku**
Their remaining air...
**[17:16] Senku**
The average male breathes
15 liters per minute.
**[17:19] Senku**
Assuming that's an average
of 20 based on their activity,
**[17:22] Senku**
and the 10-liter tank size and
a starting pressure of 70...
**[17:25] Senku**
The question is their depth.
**[17:27] Senku**
Estimating from where the jellyfish
came up and the behavior of the rope,
**[17:31] Senku**
they're roughly 20 meters down.
**[17:36] Ryusui**
*We've got four minutes of oxygen left.*
**[17:39] Soyuz**
*I-It's no use.*
**[17:40] Soyuz**
*He's stuck in the mud.*
**[17:42] Soyuz**
*It'll take hours to dig him out.*
**[17:44] Ryusui**
* But without Kaseki, we can't*
* make any more oxygen tanks.*
**[17:47] Ryusui**
*We can never come back.*
**[17:49] Ryusui**
*This is our only chance!*
**[17:52] Ryusui**
* We absolutely must bring*
* Kaseki back to the surface!*
**[17:56] Ryusui**
* When your strength isn't enough,*
* you have to use the strength of your crew.*
**[18:00] Ryusui**
*That's a leader's job!*
**[18:03] Ryusui**
*Am I right?*
**[18:06] Suika**
They're signaling us!
**[18:07] Gen**
Huh? But isn't there something weird
about how they're tugging the rope?
**[18:11] Gen**
It might be some kind of message.
**[18:13] Gen**
Tuuug, tuuug, tug, tug...
**[18:17] Gen**
Morse code!
**[18:18] Senku**
Dash, dash, dot, dot...
**[18:20] Senku**
Is that a Z?
**[18:21] Senku**
Do they have any idea how
long it'll take to send
**[18:24] Senku**
a message over the safety rope?
**[18:26] Gen**
It's fine.
**[18:27] Gen**
I'm sure it won't be that long.
**[18:29] Gen**
We're buddies. We don't need words.
**[18:33] Gen**
* We'd just told Ryusui-chan*
* that we don't have time.*
**[18:36] Gen**
*Which means there's something they want.*
**[18:39] Gen**
* We're in a hurry, so there's*
* no way it's a sentence.*
**[18:42] Gen**
*It's a word.*
**[18:43] Gen**
* But there are only a few*
* words that start with Z.*
**[18:47] Gen**
*Zoo.*
**[18:47] Gen**
*Zebra.*
**[18:48] Gen**
*Zipper.*
**[18:49] Gen**
*Zinc.*
**[18:50] Gen**
*None of those fit.*
**[18:51] Gen**
*Which means it's Japanese Morse code.*
**[18:54] Gen**
*Dash, dash, dot, dot.*
***SIGN*** Fu
**[18:56] Gen**
*"Fu."*
**[18:56] Gen**
*"I need something that starts with 'fu'"!*
**[19:01] Senku**
Revival fluid!
**[19:09] Ryusui**
*They're fast.*
**[19:19] Soyuz**
*I-I see!*
**[19:21] Soyuz**
* If we can wake up Taiju,*
* who's got the most power,*
**[19:24] Soyuz**
* he might be able to pull*
* Kaseki's statue out.*
**[19:27] Soyuz**
*But, Ryusui...*
**[19:28] Soyuz**
* You can't pour revival*
* fluid on him underwater.*
**[19:32] Soyuz**
*How can you...*
**[19:41] Ryusui**
* I made some air that's the same*
* as the outside air using the pump.*
**[19:44] Ryusui**
* I'm spraying the revival*
* fluid on him from below.*
**[19:47] Soyuz**
*He made that decision in this brief instant?*
**[19:50] Soyuz**
*To use the last of his oxygen?*
**[19:53] Ryusui**
*Oh, no!*
**[19:54] Ryusui**
*He's missing part of his arm.*
**[19:56] Ryusui**
*If we revive him now...*
**[20:03] Ryusui**
* How could he tell at first glance*
* that that was Taiju's arm?*
**[20:07] Ryusui**
* Did he remember what it looked*
* like when everyone was petrified?*
**[20:11] Ryusui**
*Good job, Soyuz!*
***SIGN*** m 0 0 l 194 0 l 194 80 l 0 80
***SIGN*** Taiju is
revived!!
**[20:37] Taiju**
I'm awake, of course!
**[20:40] Soyuz**
*Y-Yeah, that was bound to happen!*
**[20:42] Soyuz**
*Sorry!*
**[20:43] Soyuz**
* Imagine waking up and you're*
* suddenly underwater...*
**[20:46] Ryusui**
* I have to relay to Taiju the current*
* situation and what we need of him quickly.*
**[20:51] Ryusui**
* I need only to connect the space*
* between me and Taiju with air!*
**[20:54] Ryusui**
*Get Kaseki!*
**[20:56] Ryusui**
*We're reviving Kaseki first!*
**[21:07] Taiju**
*I'll manage on that single breath.*
**[21:10] Taiju**
*You have to breathe, too, Ryusui.*
**[21:12] Taiju**
*Talking isn't what's important!*
**[21:15] Taiju**
*We're a team.*
**[21:16] Taiju**
* We can communicate without*
* words, just with our hearts!*
**[21:23] Taiju**
*Not that I've got any reason to believe that!*
**[21:25] Ryusui**
*No, you're absolutely right, Taiju.*
**[21:30] Ryusui**
*I hear your heart.*
**[21:52] Gen**
We're getting close to the uh-oh time limit.

**[22:06] Senku**
