[00:35] ---
    What happened?!
[00:36] ---
    How are Bellows and the others?!
    What about the pirates?!
[00:42] ---
    There is no loss of personnel
    to the defensive side's vessel.
[00:46] ---
    The enemy force has been annihilated.
[00:48] ---
    Annihilated... You murdered
    all of the pirates?!
[00:52] ---
    Affirmative. The enemy
    force has been annihilated.
[01:00] ---
    Ledo, you idiot!
[01:06] ---
    What was that about?
SIGN    The Villainous Empress
[02:44] ---
    The pirate convoy was wiped out?
[02:46] ---
    Not just their fleet. All of the
    bastards who boarded my boat, too.
[02:51] ---
    With them dead, it's a sure bet the
    others will come, hellbent on revenge.
[02:56] ---
    They really botched this up.
[02:58] ---
    Fleet Comander! We need to get rid
    of that boy as soon as possible.
[03:03] ---
    How about handing him over to the pirates?
[03:06] ---
    Maybe that will cool them off?
[03:08] ---
    Hey, hold up! You're seriously talking
    about makin' a deal with pirates?!
[03:12] ---
    Then what would you have us do?
[03:13] ---
    Like I've been sayin', just keep
    the Yunboro and as for the kid...
[03:16] ---
    What we need to do right now...
[03:19] ---
    ...is find out what the pirates have
    in mind, then formulate a plan.
[03:23] ---
    We can decide on how to
    deal with the boy later.
[03:28] ---
    I never imagined something
    like this happening...
[03:31] ---
    What he said about battling
    in outer space was true...
[03:35] ---
    Maybe I shouldn't have opened my big mouth...
[03:40] ---
    I've been looking for you, Amy!
[03:43] ---
    I've got a little favor to ask.
[03:49] ---
    They really hate me...
[03:51] ---
    Their response defies rational analysis...
[03:56] ---
    I thought it might lead to negotiating...
[03:59] ---
    A flying object is overhead.
[04:03] ---
    It's Amy and Bellows! Lower the guns!
[04:18] ---
    Um, look...
[04:20] ---
    Sorry I yelled at you before. Are you mad?
[04:24] ---
    No problem. There is no need to apologize.
[04:27] ---
    Really? Good.
[04:30] ---
    I'm Bellows. I've been
    wanting to speak with you...
[04:34] ---
    Here's a little present.
[04:36] ---
    It seems she wishes you to
    consume the animal carcass.
[04:39] ---
    Again?!
[04:42] ---
    Ledo... That's your name, right?
[04:45] ---
    Why did you slaughter the pirates?
[04:52] ---
    Does eliminating the enemy require a reason?
[04:57] ---
    I don't know how things are in space,
[04:59] ---
    but here taking a life is
    something that must be justified.
[05:05] ---
    It is not an issue when you
    kill a living thing for food?
[05:11] ---
    Certainly, we kill fish and birds to eat.
[05:15] ---
    But only enough for us to survive.
[05:19] ---
    We don't take lives needlessly.
[05:22] ---
    Furthermore, the pirates are
    human. We're the same species!
[05:26] ---
    You mustn't take lives lightly.
[05:30] ---
    If it is forbidden to shed human blood,
[05:35] ---
    why do you possess weapons?
[05:36] ---
    If someone feels like it, they
    could rob you of your life.
[05:39] ---
    Pirates use that threat to try to
    get people to do what they want.
[05:43] ---
    And so our attitude is that we're not
    just gonna roll over and die for them.
[05:48] ---
    Displaying arms to each other is
    a kind of negotiation in itself.
[05:57] ---
    We have this expression. "Give fresh
    water to the one who catches the fish."
[06:05] ---
    Are those words a recommendation
    for humans to aid each other?
[06:09] ---
    That's right. Because we can't survive
    unless everybody brings something.
[06:16] ---
    But the pirates do not adhere to that rule.
[06:19] ---
    Of course we don't agree with that.
[06:24] ---
    We're not letting any pirates have
    our lives or our possessions!
[06:29] ---
    But our message is,"There's
    no profit in attacking us."
[06:35] ---
    It's enough just to communicate that to them.
[06:38] ---
    But add death to the mix,
    that changes things.
[06:42] ---
    In order to regain their stance
    as the threatening side,
[06:45] ---
    they're left in the position of
    having to spill even more blood.
[06:54] ---
    I understand the situation.
[06:56] ---
    Good.
[06:57] ---
    Anyway, no matter what people say, we need
    your power for run-ins with the pirates.
[07:05] ---
    This is a communication device.
[07:06] ---
    Eventually, I'll want you
    to speak to the others.
[07:10] ---
    Even if it didn't end up as it should, you saved me.
[07:14] ---
    This bird is my thanks for that. See you.
[07:23] ---
    Say, Ledo...
[07:25] ---
    If you don't have a place
    to go, why not stay here?
[07:30] ---
    I think we'll find a way to
    make things turn out smoothly.
[07:35] ---
    She wants me to live on
    this boat? Yeah, right...
[07:37] ---
    Shall I refuse?
[07:39] ---
    No. Don't refuse.
[07:41] ---
    I will consider it.
[07:42] ---
    Promise?! You really will consider it?
[07:47] ---
    Well, I'll be getting back...
[07:50] ---
    Ledo, I'm grateful to you for
    protecting Bellows's ship.
[07:55] ---
    Bye!
[08:02] ---
    Thank you so much!
[08:06] ---
    Such a peculiar phrase...
[08:20] ---
    I understand the situation.
[08:23] ---
    You can leave.
[08:27] ---
    I never did like them,
[08:31] ---
    but I didn't think they'd
    dare mess with us like this.
[08:34] ---
    Captain, that flying Yunboro worries me...
[08:37] ---
    Marocchi...
[08:38] ---
    Making a fuss over a little incident
    like that only makes them cockier.
[08:43] ---
    Yes, sir...
[08:45] ---
    And what happens to those
    who would get cocky with us?
[08:49] ---
    No matter what secret weapon they
    may have, they're no match for me.
[08:59] ---
    Captain, fleet at 3 o'clock...
    and there's a ton of ships!
[09:03] ---
    What?!
[09:05] ---
    Those are pirates!
[09:08] ---
    Commander Worm, incoming message
    from the cargo ship Atuy!
[09:12] ---
    They've spotted a large pirate
    fleet in neighboring waters!
[09:14] ---
    So they're here?
[09:15] ---
    They wish to interlock with our
    fleet for emergency shelter.
[09:23] ---
    He said the pirate fleet
    has at least 30 ships.
[09:27] ---
    30 ships? Almost all of
    the pirates in this area?!
[09:31] ---
    Moreover, he said they saw a
    lobster insignia among them.
[09:36] ---
    The Great Pirate, Lukkage!
[09:38] ---
    What's their course?
[09:39] ---
    They were spotted here.
[09:42] ---
    At that point, it seems they
    were heading east by southeast.
[09:50] ---
    It's safe to say their
    objective is our fleet.
[09:53] ---
    We'll encounter them by
    nightfall. Let's change course!
[09:57] ---
    There's no point. We don't
    have the speed to get away.
[10:00] ---
    But they've got 30 pirate ships, all
    loaded to the gills with firepower.
[10:06] ---
    Even including the small patrol boats,
    our escort fleet has just 15 ships...
[10:11] ---
    There's no way they can protect us.
[10:16] ---
    And trying to negotiate with them...?
[10:22] ---
    They're coming for revenge.
[10:24] ---
    Only spilled blood will satisfy them.
[10:33] ---
    Fleet Commander...
[10:35] ---
    Let's ask that kid to help us.
[10:37] ---
    W-What are you saying?!
[10:40] ---
    Can you hear me, Ledo?
[10:43] ---
    Do you want something?
[10:45] ---
    The pirates are heading this way. We'll
    have to tangle with them by this evening.
[10:50] ---
    I have already acquired the
     approaching fleet target.
[10:54] ---
    I am prepared to assist you.
[10:58] ---
    Is that what you wish?
[10:59] ---
    Fleet Commander, would you talk to him?
[11:02] ---
    Ridiculous! We're in this situation
    because of that brat's--
[11:05] ---
    Regardless, if we can use that Yunboro, it
    should make for a considerable advantage.
[11:11] ---
    Ridget.
[11:12] ---
    Yes, sir.
[11:14] ---
    This is Ridget.
[11:16] ---
    I'll speak to you on behalf of
    the Fleet Commander. All right?
[11:20] ---
    No problem.
[11:22] ---
    Let me confirm. You say you'll help us,
[11:26] ---
    but do you recognize that it's your
    fault we're in these circumstances?
[11:31] ---
    I understand. I apologize
    for killing the pirates.
[11:37] ---
    Then one more thing...
[11:39] ---
    With your military force, isn't it
    possible that you could destroy us, too?
[11:45] ---
    Affirmative. This machine alone
    could wipe out this entire fleet.
[11:50] ---
    Then why are you offering
    to help weaklings like us?
[11:55] ---
    I wish to make a deal.
[11:56] ---
    A deal?
[11:58] ---
    Bellows told me.
[11:59] ---
    You people say, "Give fresh water
    to the one who catches the fish."
[12:04] ---
    She also told me that the pirates
    don't follow those words.
[12:11] ---
    So I decided it would be more beneficial
    to make a deal with you than the pirates.
[12:20] ---
    I would like to stay here for the time being.
[12:24] ---
    Fleet Commander, I think we
    should accept the boy's deal.
[12:30] ---
    W-What?!
[12:32] ---
    We mustn't neglect to give water
    to the one who catches the fish.
[12:52] ---
    Confirmation requested.
[12:54] ---
    The mission of this machine is only to
    divert the pirates. Is that correct?
[12:58] ---
    Yes. All you have to do
    is get their attention.
[13:02] ---
    Be sure to restrain yourself
    from attacking excessively.
[13:07] ---
    I understand your demands.
[13:09] ---
    If at all possible, I will take
    care not to cause human casualties.
[13:10] ---
    So this is what it's like inside...
[13:13] ---
    Do not enter the cockpit without permission.
[13:17] ---
    The hell was that for,
    you overgrown tin can?!
[13:28] ---
    Unbelievable...
[13:29] ---
    We're entrusting the defense of
    our fleet to that strange kid?
[13:35] ---
    It's the Fleet Commander's decision.
[13:37] ---
    I can understand why he made it.
[13:40] ---
    Even so...
[13:55] ---
    Marocchi.
[13:56] ---
    Haven't we arrived at the Gargantia yet?
[14:00] ---
    I sure they'll be noticin' us pretty soon...
[14:03] ---
    On a night as dark as this, maybe
    even they have a chance of winning.
[14:07] ---
    You're joking!
[14:09] ---
    In this world, nobody exists who
     could beat us in a night battle!
[14:14] ---
    Oh, is that right?
[14:19] ---
    What's this?!
[14:22] ---
    Pirate fleet confirmed.
[14:25] ---
    We're going to begin the battle.
[14:27] ---
    Up there! Shoot it down!
[14:32] ---
    All ships, cannons at the ready!
[14:35] ---
    Alright! All ships, commence firing!
[14:45] ---
    Don't tell me they beat us to
    the punch in a night battle.
[14:48] ---
    What the hell is that Yunboro?!
    It's flyin' all over the place!
[14:51] ---
    Come on, already! Counterattack!
[14:53] ---
    All ships, aim at the enemy fleet and fire!
[15:09] ---
    The Chezy and Nephilim have been hit!
[15:10] ---
    The Chezy can't continue fighting!
[15:13] ---
    Have it retreat. All the
    other ships, continue...
[15:18] ---
    The Marcus is hit!
[15:20] ---
    Keep firing! Don't lose this!
[15:23] ---
    Even more allied ships have been hit.
[15:25] ---
    Estimate: In 17 minutes, the allied force
    will no longer be able to continue fighting.
[15:31] ---
    Then we've got no choice.
    We're going to enter the fray.
[15:35] ---
    While avoiding human casualties, disable
    the enemy's firepower and mobility.
[15:40] ---
    Roger.
[15:51] ---
    No signs of life.
[15:55] ---
    No human casualties.
[15:57] ---
    Alright.
[16:01] ---
    Here it comes!
[16:12] ---
    The Crocodile's on fire!
[16:14] ---
    The Grach has reversed course! Are
    they tryin' to get away on their own?!
[16:18] ---
    Everyone should be getting
    here about now.
[16:20] ---
    We'd better get ready as well.
[16:23] ---
    Aye, sir!
[16:32] ---
    Something's over there!
[16:33] ---
    Light it up!
[16:50] ---
    Pirates!
[16:51] ---
    Pirate attack!
[16:52] ---
    Citizens, evacuate to starboard!
[16:57] ---
    Fire!
[17:02] ---
    Move our Yunboros out, too!
[17:04] ---
    Send the guards up top!
[17:09] ---
    Warning: The Gargantia is being
    invaded by enemy armored troops.
[17:13] ---
    When did they get here?!
[17:20] ---
    You're not the only one
    with a special Yunboroid.
[17:25] ---
    Empress Lukkage is gonna attack!
[17:27] ---
    I haven't seen Empress Lukkage's
    Lobster in a long time!
[17:32] ---
    The Surfing Lobster...
[17:34] ---
    It's heading for the Gargantia!
[17:36] ---
    All nearby Heavy Yunboros,
    aim for that and fire!
[17:44] ---
    She's getting through!
[17:49] ---
    Dammit!
[18:24] ---
    What's happening?!
[18:26] ---
    Looks like Lukkage just crashed
    into the superstructure!
[18:28] ---
    What?!
[18:42] ---
    She's climbing!
[18:43] ---
    Send the garrison to superstructure one!
[18:46] ---
    Everyone evacuate.
[18:48] ---
    I'm the one she wants.
[18:50] ---
    Fleet Commander!
[18:52] ---
    I wonder where Fleet Commander Fairlock is...
[19:00] ---
    I'm anxious to crush him.
[19:04] ---
    Oh, my... You suddenly embrace
    a lady from behind...
[19:09] ---
    But I don't have anything
    against an aggressive man.
[19:18] ---
    What's she trying to do?!
[19:21] ---
    Gung ho!
[19:24] ---
    Semper fi!
[19:26] ---
    Sorry to keep you waiting!
[19:43] ---
    It seems you're good at flying,
    but how are you in the water?
[19:52] ---
    Wha...?!
[19:54] ---
    I don't believe this...
[19:57] ---
    This can't be...
[19:58] ---
    Warning to the invading enemy:
    Surrender immediately.
[20:01] ---
    Surrender?! Lukkage?!
[20:05] ---
    She's not giving me much choice...
[20:07] ---
    Repeat: Surrender.
[20:12] ---
    The safety of your lives is guaranteed.
[20:14] ---
    What a bore you are! No matter how
    many times you say it, I'll never...
[20:19] ---
    Hey!
[20:21] ---
    Surrender. Surrender. Surrender immediately.
[20:25] ---
    Repeat: Surrender.
[20:28] ---
    Go... to hell...
[20:30] ---
    I'll never surrender...
    even if it... kills me...
[20:46] ---
    Oh, crap! Pull out!
[20:49] ---
    W-Wait!
[21:04] ---
    That kid did it...
[21:07] ---
    Thank you!
[21:09] ---
    Thank you!
[21:16] ---
    I keep hearing that word.
[21:18] ---
    It is an idiom denoting gratitude.
[21:22] ---
    Gratitude...
[21:28] ---
    I see. He did well...
[21:31] ---
    How do you intend to deal with the boy?
[21:37] ---
    I wonder what Chevron would have done...
[21:41] ---
    My father?
[21:43] ---
    I'm going to let you decide.
[21:52] ---
    Good job!
[21:54] ---
    I'll cook you a special dinner tonight, too!
[22:01] ---
    T... Ta... Than...
[22:08] ---
    Thank you...
