[00:03] Nagare
    Boring.
[00:14] Nagare
    That's a pretty soft soul.
[00:19] Isshin
    It can't be...
[00:22] Nagare
    Cross Beat Impact!
[00:33] Maki
    The first match of the Hero Wars
    semifinal has come to an end with
[00:35] Maki
    The Dominion Dollar,
    Nagare Amano's crushing victory!
[00:43] Isshin
    The skills of the Gold Force
    are in a different league.
[00:46] Isshin
    Deborah and Rohan before them were
    probably no more than the opening act.
[00:50] Isshin
    Your opponent most likely has strength
    which rivals Nagare-dono, too...
[00:57] Maki
    And next, semifinal round two!
[01:01] Maki
    Which competitor will advance to the finals?!
[01:08] (Flashback) Kaito
    The match was already over.
[01:11] (Flashback) Kaito
    Why did you do that?!
[01:13] (Flashback) Kaito
    You must have some reason, right?
[01:15] (Flashback) Kaito
    So tell us!
[01:17] (Flashback) Long
    I have nothing to tell you.
[01:21] (Flashback) Long
    We'll meet next in the semifinals ring.
[01:28] Kaito
    Long...
[01:29] Kaito
    He and I will fight?

[03:18] Fukuta
    It looks like Kaito is worried about
    fighting with Long after all, though.
[03:23] Mitsuo
    It is understandable.
[03:25] Mitsuo
    His true identity may have
    been a member of Gold Force,
[03:28] Mitsuo
    but he was still a partner we all spent
    time with in Big Money Company...
[03:34] Kaito
    What's with this crap?! I'm so annoyed!
[03:38] Fukuta
    Kaito...
[03:38] Mitsuo
    Kaito-kun...
[03:40] Kaito
    My crap wouldn't come out this morning!
[03:42] Both
    Well, crap!
[03:44] Ai
    Kaito!
[03:45] Zouan
    We've got refreshments!
[03:47] Kaito
    Sis! Gramps!
[03:50] Ai
    I did my very best to make this for you!
[03:52] Ai
    Go ahead and eat up!
[03:57] Mitsuo
    Dried chestnuts, pork cutlets,
    steak cutlets, and sea bream head!
[04:01] Mitsuo
    These are all good luck charms
    praying for his victory!

[04:10] Fukuta
    all cheap, though...
[04:13] Ai
    I didn't quite have the budget.
[04:17] Kaito
    I am constipated, you know.
[04:19] Kaito
    Maybe I should hold off to firm up my butt...
[04:22] Ai
    Huh?!
[04:23] Ai
    Are you saying you can't eat my food?!
[04:23] Ai
    Ow, ow, ow! That hurts!
[04:25] Ai
    And after I scrimped to make all this for 398 yen!
[04:26] ---
    Hey, hang on a second!
[04:28] Both
    Cheap!
[04:28] ---
    I can't believe you!
[04:30] Kaito
    S-Sorry, Sis, but my appetite is kinda shot.
[04:33] Zouan
    Do you have doubts about your
    fight with that boy coming up?
[04:40] Kaito
    Yeah.
[04:43] Kaito
    Gramps,
[04:44] Kaito
    I don't know what to do.
[04:46] Kaito
    Long is my friend, but he was really deceiving me...
[04:51] Kaito
    But I still have a lot of fun when I'm with him.
[04:54] Zouan
    Eat up.
[04:56] Zouan
    You can't fight on an empty stomach.
[04:59] Zouan
    Don't think, just move your body.
[05:02] Zouan
    That is what's vital to you right now.
[05:05] Kaito
    These are Long's...
[05:15] Kaito
    Yummy!
[05:17] Kaito
    It's so yummy!
[05:22] Kaito
    Yummy!
[05:23] Ai
    Hey, come on!
[05:24] Ai
    That's bad manners!
[05:26] Mitsuo
    That's how Kaito-kun always is.
[05:28] Fukuta
    He's eating too much before the match, though!
[05:30] Zouan
    That's right. It's good, isn't it?
[05:32] Zouan
    Therein lies the answer.
[05:35] Kaito
    Answer?
[05:36] Zouan
    Indeed. It will make sense to you eventually.
[05:42] Kaito
    I don't really get it,
[05:44] Kaito
    but thanks, Gramps!
[05:45] Kaito
    I'll fight Long for real!
[05:48] Kaito
    Mitsuo, Fukuta! Let's do that to cheer up!
[05:51] Mitsuo
    Yes!

    Sour.
[06:25] Long
    Not delicious.
[06:35] Long
    Grandpa, I will absolutely win.
[06:38] Maki
    Now that the Hero Wars are all charged up,
[06:41] Maki
    it's time at last for the start of the
    second round of the semifinal!
[06:46] Maki
    First, the battle one-stop-shop who's shown us
[06:48] Maki
    a rich variety of comedic and serious
    battles on his way to the top:
[06:53] Maki
    Enter the Gold, Kaito Gosho!
[06:58] Maki
    Versus the tiny assassin on a big roll who
    has continued to make a steady advance,
[07:04] Maki
    a warrior with a round face
    but with fists of steel:
[07:07] Maki
    the All-powerful Ura Dragon, Li-Chi Long!
[07:23] Nagare
    What a worthless fight.
[07:25] Nagare
    Friendship and camaraderie mean nothing to me.
[07:29] MG
    I wouldn't be so sure.
[07:32] MG
    Friendship and camaraderie...
[07:34] MG
    Those sweet nothings make the blow
    all the more painful when betrayed.
[07:39] MG
    Don't you think it has some utility value?
[07:42] Nagare
    Utility value?
[07:44] MG
    Now then, how will this play out?
[07:50] Kaito
    Tell me before the battle.
[07:52] Kaito
    Yesterday, why did you come to our place?
[07:55] Kaito
    Did you have something you wanted to tell me?
[07:57] Long
    Nothing.
[07:59] Kaito
    Then why did you trick us?
[08:02] Kaito
    Why did you join the Gold Force?
[08:05] Long
    I have no need to answer.
[08:08] Kaito
    I guess you're not gonna
    tell me anything after all.
[08:10] Kaito
    Got it.
[08:11] Kaito
    I'll just enjoy this battle for real, then!
[08:15] Kaito
    Here I go!

    The All-powerful Ura Dragon's
    Kung-fu slaughter style!
[09:02] Announcer
    The fierce attack that floored Shadow Kitty!
[09:06] Kaito
    I'm not finished yet!
[09:12] Mitsuo
    Kaito-kun!
[09:13] Fukuta
    Charging in without a plan is crazy, though!
[09:18] Kaito
    It's fine!
[09:19] Long
    Are you not going to bring out that fast one?
[09:22] Kaito
    This match is power against power!
[09:24] Kaito
    A head-to-head, fist-to-fist battle!
[09:26] Kaito
    I won't use speed!
[09:28] Long
    How foolish.
[09:30] Long
    I won't hold back.
[09:38] Kaito
    My butt can take whatever
    you've got! It doesn't hurt!
[09:41] Mitsuo
    Right after he said it was fist-to-fist!
[09:43] Fukuta
    He whipped out his butt, though!
[09:50] Announcer
    That looks painful!
[09:52] Announcer
    No matter how soft the tush,
[09:54] Announcer
    a scratch like that is gonna hurt!
[09:56] ---
    Ow...
[09:57] Kaito
    Hey, Long!
[09:58] Kaito
    Isn't sinking your claws into
    my bottom playing dirty?
[10:01] Long
    Here's the bottom line.
[10:02] Long
    I will do anything to win.
[10:05] Kaito
    Putting a bottom line on a bottom?!
[10:07] Kaito
    Shut up, you jerk!
[10:08] Long
    Senseless.
[10:12] Long
    I'll put an end to this fight in no time!
[10:16] Kaito
    I'm not done yet!
[10:23] (Flashback) Long
    I'm not done yet!
[10:31] Long
    What am I...
[10:33] Long
    It's pointless! I mustn't!
[10:51] Announcer
    He nailed it!
[10:53] Announcer
    Incredible! The All-powerful Ura
    Dragon had a hidden ability!
[11:00] Long
    No!
[11:01] Long
    That wasn't me!
[11:23] Nagare
    That was...
[11:26] MG
    That prototype has
[11:28] MG
    a mechanism which turns it into a massacre
    machine regardless of the user's will.
[11:33] Nagare
    Why did you do that?
[11:34] MG
    Friendship, camaraderie...
[11:36] MG
    The openings created by such negligence
    are man's greatest weakness.
[11:41] MG
    The closer two people get,
[11:43] MG
    and the more they trust one another,
[11:45] MG
    the larger that opening becomes.
[11:47] MG
    Long's betrayal of the Gold Force actually
[11:52] MG
    made things more amusing by
    allowing us to catch Kaito off-guard.
[11:59] Nagare
    So that's why he sent him to them?
[12:02] MG
    You do understand, right, Nagare?
[12:05] MG
    You mustn't trust anyone.
[12:07] MG
    One can only trust one's own strength.
[12:12] Announcer
    Enter the Gold can't recover
    from that fierce blow!
[12:17] Isshin
    At this rate...
[12:18] Ai
    Kaito! Get up!
[12:24] Announcer
    Whoa, he stood up!
[12:27] Fukuta
    He held his ground, though!
[12:29] Kaito
    Long, that was...
[12:33] Kaito
    Awesome!
[12:34] Long
    Huh?
[12:36] Kaito
    That's what you get from a 4,000 yen,
[12:37] Kaito
    I mean, a 4,000 year old Hero Suit!
[12:40] Kaito
    How did you rig up something like that?
[12:42] Long
    I-I didn't—
[12:44] Kaito
    Battling you really is fun!
[12:48] Long
    Kaito, you're...
[12:58] Kaito
    Wh-What?
[13:05] Announcer
    Long breaks out his brutal tactics!
[13:07] Announcer
    Has Enter the Gold fallen prey to it, too?!
[13:11] Mitsuo
    That's...
[13:12] Long
    No! This isn't me!
[13:14] Mitsuo
    Don't tell me, it's against Long-kun's will?
[13:17] Long
    Stop!
[13:20] Long
    Stop!
[13:26] Long
    Stop it!
[13:39] Long
    Stop it! This isn't right!
[13:42] Long
    This isn't what I wanted!
[13:47] Kaito
    What in the world is wrong with Long?!
[13:50] Mitsuo
    It was probably autopilot!
[13:52] Mitsuo
    He freed himself from its control!
[13:57] Long
    Money Ghost!
[13:59] Long
    Why?
[14:03] Long
    You didn't trust me?
[14:05] Long
    You betrayed me?!
[14:08] Long
    Yes, just like back then!
[14:11] (Flashback) Renho
    Li-Chi.
[14:12] (Flashback) Renho
    Even if you are betrayed,
[14:15] (Flashback) Renho
    you must trust people to the very end...
[14:19] Long
    Grandpa!
[14:23] Long
    I'll never trust anyone,
[14:25] Long
    not a single person, ever again!
[14:27] Kaito
    You idiot!
[14:31] Kaito
    What're you saying, Long?!
[14:32] Kaito
    I dunno what happened to you, but I trust you!
[14:36] Kaito
    I believe that you tried to tackle
    this match fair and square!
[14:42] Kaito
    That's why you were screaming
    "stop" just now, right?!
[14:44] Kaito
    You were trying to fight on your own!
[14:47] Long
    Kaito...
[14:49] Kaito
    So let's do it!
[14:51] Kaito
    Gold Force has nothing to do with it!
[14:53] Kaito
    It's a man-to-man match between you and me!
[14:58] (Flashback) Zouan
    That which is naturally conveyed
[15:00] (Flashback) Zouan
    even without words,
    from fist to fist, heart to heart!
[15:05] Long
    Very well.
[15:07] Long
    I will fight you on my own as a fight leader!
[15:11] Kaito
    Let's go, Long!
[15:20] Ai
    Kaito!
[15:21] Zouan
    Good luck, the both of ya!
[15:25] Long
    Grandpa...
[15:27] Long
    My grandpa was a kind dojo
    master who absolutely
[15:32] Long
    wouldn't accept money from his pupils.
[15:37] Long
    My grandpa's pickled veggies were delicious!
[15:40] Long
    Selling them was my job.
[15:45] Long
    But one day,
[15:47] Long
    some guys in black suits appeared,
[15:49] Long
    saying they were going to build a road,
    and my grandpa opposed them all alone.
[15:55] Long
    Then...
[15:57] Long
    He was betrayed by all his
    pupils who owed a debt,
[16:00] Long
    and the dojo was destroyed!
[16:06] Long
    That's when I learned
[16:09] Long
    that I mustn't generate a debt to anyone.
[16:12] Long
    Mustn't trust anyone!
[16:20] Long
    If only money didn't exist in this world!
[16:23] Long
    If it weren't for money,
    everyone would be happy!
[16:27] Long
    That's why I decided to never smile again,
    became nothingness, and fought my way here!
[16:32] Long
    So why?!
[16:34] Long
    Why is it fun whenever I fight you?!
[16:40] Long
    This is tacit understanding!
[16:45] Kaito
    You're an idiot, Long.
[16:47] Kaito
    You're a total idiot!
[16:49] Long
    What?
[16:50] Kaito
    People will be happy so
    long as there's no money?!
[16:53] Kaito
    You're wrong!
[16:54] Kaito
    My family's got a ten billion yen debt!
[16:57] Kaito
    But Sis, Gramps, and I are always smiling!
[17:02] Kaito
    And Mitsuo! And Fukuta!
[17:04] Kaito
    And Isshin! And Big Bro Kintetsu!
    And Hana and the others!
[17:07] Kaito
    Everyone around me has a smile
    on their face, money or none!
[17:13] Long
    Everyone has a smile?
[17:22] Kaito
    This world isn't just about money!

    Long, I'm gonna teach you a good saying!
