SIGN    Explosion Off the Coast of Tokyo Bay Megafloat
[00:38] Rep
    Reporting live from the scene!
[00:40] Rep
    As you can see, the roads to the Megafloat
    have been sealed off due to the bomb,
[00:44] Rep
    and the Defense Force has set up blockades
    at the entrances to the Megabridge.
[00:48] Rep
    You can feel the tension in the air!
[00:54] Kim
    Oh, great. First suicide bombers, now this.
[00:58] Ar
    Is that island cursed or something?
[01:02] Ch
    Is everyone here?
[01:05] All
    An EX-ARM auction?
[01:07] Wani
    Correct. This 'ere's an invitation
    we snagged off one of our informants.
[01:13] Miy
    People invited have been
    tempted by the EX-ARMs
[01:16] Miy
    and have converged at the Tokyo
    Bay Megafloat from all across the globe.
[01:21] Mi
    Superintendent, who are these people?
[01:23] Ch
    I'll introduce you.
[01:24] Ch
    This is Captain Wanibuchi
    from Public Safety External Affairs 4.
[01:27] Ch
    And this is Lieutenant Miyabe.
[01:29] Wani
    Hello.
[01:31] A
    Public Safety?
[01:33] Mi
    Hello. You must be Number 00.
[01:36] Mi
    How I've wanted to meet you!
[01:38] A
    H-Hey, don't touch me!
[01:41] Kon
    Why'd Public Safety get that intel before us?
[01:46] Wani
    I believe you were filled in,
    Superintendent Rokuoin Chikage.
[01:50] Chi
    We'll be investigating this case
    jointly with External Affairs 4.
[01:55] Kim
    Are you kidding me?
[01:57] Wani
    No, no, that's not quite right.
[01:59] Wani
    You seem to have
    misunderstood something, Superintendent.
[02:04] Wani
    This isn't a joint investigation!
[02:06] Wani
    You'll be working under our command!
[02:10] Wani
    This is an order from the brass,
    to restore the credibility of the Japanese police!
[02:16] Wani
    You screwed up bad last time.
[02:18] Wani
    The brass is unanimous in the belief
    that you need some checks and balances.
[02:23] Wani
    And, of course, Chief Shiga has acquiesced.
[02:27] Mi
    He what?!
[02:28] Kim
    Damn it!
[02:30] A
    I don't care who's giving me orders
    as long as I can catch Beta.
[02:35] Al
    "Beta"?
[02:37] A
    Yeah. That guy who looks just like me.
[02:41] A
    I need to take him out.
[02:44] A
    I'm sure he was behind this bomb, too.
[02:46] A
    We'll get our hands on all the answers
    if we can catch him.
[02:51] Kon
    Anyway, what do we gotta do?
[02:54] Chi
    You'll all take part
    in the casino auction undercover.
[03:00] A
    Wait, me, too?
[04:33] AJ
    A showy island built with a casino
    to help the Tokyo Attack recovery efforts,
[04:38] AJ
    the Tokyo Megafloat,
SIGN    EX-ARM Auction Invite
[04:41] AJ
    and an EX-ARM auction deliberately held there, eh?
[04:48] AJ
    How does it feel to be back home,
[04:52] AJ
    Soma?
[05:00] A
    Whoa, whoa, whoa.
[05:02] Ar
    Well? Do you like it?
[05:04] A
    I like that I don't need anyone
    to carry me around anymore.
[05:08] Ar
    The casino blocks off wireless comms
    to prevent cheating,
[05:11] Ar
    but your quantum network should work.
[05:14] Ar
    Keep us updated,
    and make sure you're not found.
[05:18] Ar
    If you're caught,
    you might get auctioned off.
[05:22] A
    Copy that.
[05:25] Kim
    Man, we gotta work at this casino?
[05:29] Al
    A bomb just went off,
    but you wouldn't know it in here.
[05:34] Kim
    The people who chose to remain
    are probably really ballsy
[05:37] Kim
    or really frickin' crazy.
[05:39] A
    Where are Minami and Kondo?
[05:41] Al
    They and Lieutenant Miyabe are acting
    as bodyguards for a certain group.
[05:46] A
    And who is that?
[05:51] Al
    A political organization called Jinkoku-sha
    and its president, Hayama Gaho.
[05:56] Al
    He pulls all the strings in the Japanese economy
    without ever taking the spotlight.
[06:02] Mi
    This way, sir.
[06:04] Ar
    Oh, delivery from Akira.
[06:08] Wani
    Quickly identify and analyze the people
    attending the auction.
[06:14] Chi
    This is Nguyen, from arms dealer Hanoi Farm!
[06:18] Chi
    And they're members of the Bathala smuggling ring.
[06:22] Wani
    I see Dario Goldoni from the Falcone Familia.
[06:27] Wani
    The two in the back are Gina and Aristarif
    from Russian mafia group Spiritus.
[06:33] Chi
    Criminals everywhere you look.
[06:36] Wani
    Criminals from across the globe
    have gathered here for the EX-ARMs.
[06:40] Wani
    It's a golden opportunity to catch them all
    in one fell swoop.
[06:44] Miy
    The auction venue is this way.
[06:47] Ga
    Let's go, Midori.
[06:49] Mid
    Yes, Grandfather.
[06:54] W
    Hey! Watch where you're going!
[06:58] Mi
    Al—
[06:59] Kon
    We're undercover, dumbass.
[07:01] Mi
    But...
[07:02] AJ
    Are you all right, miss?
[07:05] W
    Oh, I'm fine. Thank you.
[07:10] AJ
    Take my hand, beautiful one.
[07:15] W
    Hey! Do you realize
    you're talking to an android?
[07:20] AJ
    And? All I care about is beauty, nothing else.
[07:25] W
    Who even are you?
[07:26] AJ
    My name is Al Jarde.
[07:28] AJ
    Let us be on our way, Soma.
[07:42] Kon
    What's up?
[07:44] Mi
    Nothing.
[07:47] Ngu
    Oh? Policemen guarding Jinkoku-sha?
[07:51] Ngu
    And they even sent in Number 00.
    The Japanese government is going all out.
[08:00] Auc
    I hope you all enjoyed the show.
[08:09] Auc
    It's a pleasure to meet you. I'm Auctioneer.
[08:14] Auc
    Thank you very much for taking part
    in this EX-ARM auction.
[08:20] Auc
    Without further ado, let's take a look
    at the EX-ARM lineup available today.
[08:39] Auc
    Our first piece played a major role
    in the suicide bombings here on the Megafloat
[08:44] Auc
    and shook Japan to its very core.
    It's the EX-ARM that can turn people into bombs,
[08:48] Auc
    Number 9!
[08:52] Auc
    Next, the mystery EX-ARM that's making its way
    onto the market for the first time,
[08:57] Auc
    Number 16!
[09:00] Auc
    And finally, today's main attraction...
[09:04] Auc
    The legendary creation behind
    the famous Tokyo Attack, Number 11!
[09:13] A
    Man, what the hell?
    Is he its original wielder?
[09:17] Al
    We don't know that.
[09:19] Al
    But he can't be projecting that hologram
    from too far away.
[09:22] Al
    Auctioneer must be on this island.
[09:26] Auc
    However, these three are the only EX-ARMs
    up for grabs.
[09:32] Auc
    And while I realize this may be unreasonable,
[09:35] Auc
    I want to limit this auction
    to three bidders.
[09:39] Auc
    I'll let you all decide those three
    in any way you see fit.
[09:46] Auc
    Once you're down to three,
    we'll begin the auction,
[09:49] Auc
    and the highest bidder for each EX-ARM
    will go home with it.
[09:55] Auc
    I wish you all the most wonderful EX-ARM.
[10:00] Kim
    This is gonna turn out
    to be one nasty auction.
[10:05] Kim
    Don't you get it?
[10:07] Kim
    Auctioneer just told the participants
    to fight each other!
[10:12] Gah
    N-Number 11...
[10:15] Gah
    The demonic light that destroyed Japan.
[10:19] Gah
    I'll never forget that light
    I saw during the attack.
[10:23] Gah
    Its dark glow brought Japan to its knees!
[10:27] Gah
    We must seal it away forever
    by our own hands.
[10:31] Gah
    Letting criminal scum have it
    is out of the question!
[10:37] Gah
    We must win all the EX-ARMs
    that are being auctioned off here.
[10:42] Gah
    It doesn't matter how much money it takes!
[10:44] Gah
    Make sure we win at all cos—
[10:48] Mid
    Grandfather!
[10:49] Miy
    Are you okay?
[10:53] Kon
    Crap. We need to go back to the hotel.
[10:56] Miy
    G-Got it!
[11:02] Ngy
    Now, shall we begin?
[11:09] Wani
    The politicking between groups
    is about to start.
[11:14] Wani
    This should be fun.
[11:17] Bat
    Let me give you some advice.
    Join us, and we'll take out those guys.
[11:21] AJ
    I don't plan on working with anyone.
[11:25] Bat
    What, you wanna play lone wolf?
[11:28] Bat
    We have an EX-ARM wielder, you know?
    You'll regret this.
[11:31] Evo
    Shit, shit, shit, shit!
[11:33] AJ
    And if you wish to oppose
    the people of the desert,
[11:37] AJ
    you'd best be ready to face the consequences.
[11:42] Bat
    Tch. Who does he think he is?
[11:44] Ngu
    That's too bad.
[11:46] Ngu
    If it's a business partner you want,
    I daresay I'll be a better fit.
[11:58] Dar
    Man, what a shame.
[12:01] Dar
    I'll welcome a signorina with open arms,
[12:03] Dar
    but I don't know about
    some random masked man.
[12:11] Dar
    My Number 23 is an EX-ARM
    that can materialize illusions.
[12:23] Dar
    Okay, let's party!
[12:30] Gi
    Unfortunately for you,
    Aristarif here has an EX-ARM.
[12:34] Gi
    Play with us, and you'll get burned.
[12:38] Ngu
    Marvelous, Miss Gina.
[12:41] Ngu
    I'm honored to work together with your team.
[12:44] Gi
    Don't you have any troops?
[12:48] Ngu
    Oh, would you like to see them?
[12:51] Ngu
    I figured this would happen
    and made preparations.
[12:59] Ngu
    There is absolutely no need for concern.

[13:09] A
    Is that girl gonna be okay?
[13:11] Miy
    I'm sure she will be.
[13:13] Miy
    The president of Jinkoku-sha handpicked her.
[13:16] A
    Uh, could you tell me more about Jinkoku-sha?
    I don't know anything about them.
[13:21] Miy
    Sure, but remember that
    this is only Public Safety's perspective.
[13:26] Miy
    After the 2020 Tokyo Attack,
[13:28] Miy
    which shattered the country's spine,
    what it needed most
[13:32] Miy
    was an entity that commanded great financial
    and political power, even if illegally.
[13:37] Miy
    That situation helped Jinkoku-sha thrive.
[13:41] Kon
    I hear they did some real bad shit
    to make it happen.
[13:46] Miy
    Of course. No one could rise to power like that
    doing it the legal way.
[13:52] Miy
    Honestly, there is so much dirt on them,
[13:55] Miy
    it wouldn't be a surprise if anyone tried
    to off Jinkoku-sha and President Hayama.
[14:04] A
    Does Midori know all this?
[14:07] Kon
    She absolutely does.
[14:09] Kon
    She still has the composure
    to smile in this crazy situation.
[14:14] Kon
    It shows that she understands the environment
    she was raised in.
[14:24] Mi
    How is the president doing?
[14:25] Mid
    He got too agitated,
    and his chronic illness flared up.
[14:29] Mid
    But he'll be fine if he takes
    his medicine and gets some rest.
[14:33] Miy
    What about the auction, though?
[14:36] Mid
    No need to worry.
[14:38] Mid
    Grandfather said he's leaving the rest to me.
[14:45] Mid
    There's a lot I don't understand,
    so I hope you'll help me.
[14:50] Mi
    S-Sure...
[14:52] A
    Okay, we'll keep you safe.
[14:55] A
    Even if you're not exactly paragons of virtue,
[14:58] A
    it's much better than letting
    the others take Number 11.
[15:02] Mid
    Akira.
[15:04] Al
    Get away from the windows!
[15:06] Mi
    Alma?
[15:07] Al
    This hotel's been surrounded.
[15:12] A
    Is that... Nguyen?
[15:14] Kon
    And Bathala. I see Spiritus, too.
[15:17] Kon
    They teamed up, huh?
[15:20] Al
    Remember the cards placed
    on the table in the auction hall?
[15:23] Al
    Look what they had written on the back.
[15:26] Al
    "I'll kill everyone
    who cooperates with Jinkoku-sha."
[15:31] Miy
    Wh-What do we do?
[15:33] Kon
    We gotta get outta here.
[15:34] Mi
    How?
[15:36] Al
    The possible escape routes are...
[15:37] Al
    the hotel entrance and the parking lot.
[15:40] Al
    The enemy's probably there already.
[15:43] Mi
    Can the president escape, Midori?
[15:45] Mid
    He should be able to move,
    but we shouldn't push him.
[15:48] Kon
    Escaping won't be easy.
[15:50] Miy
    What?
[15:52] A
    H-Hey.
[15:53] A
    I have an idea.
[15:55] Mi
    What is it?
[15:56] A
    Alma, Minami. Kiss for me.
[16:01] Mi
    Wait, why now?
[16:02] A
    Please do it! I need my powers!
[16:05] Mid
    What is the meaning of this?
[16:07] A
    Just do it already!
[16:09] Mi
    Oh, jeez! Fine!
[16:14] Al
    Genetic code confirmed. Key level 3 unlock.
[16:20] G
    Here they come. Get ready.
[16:24] G
    Wh-What's with them?
[16:27] A
    I took over the data links
    of the casino androids!
[16:30] A
    Get outside now, guys!
[16:33] G
    Move! Outta my way!
[16:35] G
    Shit, they've been hacked!
[16:40] Mid
    That was so exciting!
[16:41] Mid
    Nice idea, Akira!
[16:43] A
    O-Oh, you know it.
[16:45] Kon
    They'll be after us in no time!
    Let's get going!
[16:47] Mi
    Okay!
[16:48] B
    They just left the parking lot!
[16:50] Ngu
    Yes, I can see that.
[16:52] Ngu
    I suppose it's my turn now.
[16:55] Mid
    We managed to escape somehow.
[16:57] Al
    We can't relax yet.
[16:59] Al
    Look ahead.
[17:00] Kon
    Who's that?
[17:02] Kon
    Go around him!
[17:03] G
    Yeah!
[17:19] Miy
    Those cars crashed into nothing at all.
[17:21] Kon
    Damn, how about weapons?
[17:33] A
    H-He stopped the bullets?
[17:35] Kon
    Okay, yeah, he's got an EX-ARM.
[17:40] Miy
    Kondo!
[17:43] Kon
    I'm okay.
[17:45] A
    Alma and I will hold him off.
[17:50] Al
    Let's do this, Akira.
[17:52] A
    Yeah!
[17:58] A
    Now!
[17:59] A
    Go, Minami!
[18:06] Al
    Not so fast.
[18:13] A
    Alma!
[18:15] A
    Damn it!
[18:18] A
    You okay, Alma?!
[18:20] Al
    Yes, but...
[18:25] Al
    He seems to be fine, too.
[18:26] A
    Seriously? Just what is he?
[18:29] Ngu
    I am so moved.
[18:32] Ngu
    I'm amazed you could do that
    to let your friends escape.
[18:37] Ngu
    A beautiful display of selflessness.
[18:42] A
    What's with these things? Are they androids?
[18:46] Ngu
    My kitties are quite feral, you see.
[18:49] Ngu
    They'll be taking both you
    and that mysterious EX-ARM wielder out.
[18:57] ---
    Shit!
[18:59] Al
    Akira, go after Minami and the rest.
[19:02] Al
    It's always been my role
    to act as a sacrificial lamb for humans.
[19:06] A
    I'll be the eyes on the back of your head.
[19:09] A
    We're squadmates.
[19:10] A
    I won't leave you alone!
[20:33] A
    Alma!
[20:35] Al
    I'm sorry, Akira.
[20:37] Al
    My actuator's been damaged.
    I don't think I can move.
[20:40] A
    Crap, this is bad.
[20:47] A
    Sorry, Alma. I've got an idea,
    though it's do-or-die.
[20:51] Al
    I believe in you, Akira.
[20:54] Al
    We're squadmates.

    Go!

    What are they trying?
[21:12] A
    Now!
