[00:04] ---
    Who are you?
[00:10] ---
    My name is Sanzang Strike Freedom Gundam.
[00:18] ---
    That's Qiongji.
[00:20] ---
    I had been imprisoned by this man.
[00:25] ---
    You were the one who saved me from it.
[00:44] ---
    And, Zhuge Liang.
[00:46] ---
    Thank you for noticing my message.
[00:50] ---
    You're...
[00:51] ---
    Hey, what is he talking about?
[00:54] ---
    Looks like he is the real Sanzang.
[01:04] ---
    You escaped, not bad.
[01:11] ---
    But it's already too late.
[01:13] ---
    You might manage to come,
    but there's nothing you can do.
[01:16] ---
    
[02:52] ---
    (EPISODE TWENTY-THREE,
    THE TRUTH OF WUKONG)
[03:01] ---
    Finally, we meet.
[03:04] ---
    You look just like Qiongji...
[03:08] ---
    Who on earth are you?
[03:10] ---
    Qiongji and I are from the same planet.
[03:15] ---
    Then, are you his friend?
[03:18] ---
    No, I'm not his friend now.
[03:21] ---
    What do you mean?
[03:23] ---
    We've done as you said
    and gathered the five Haros.
[03:26] ---
    And all of a sudden,
    that man Qiongji came...
[03:28] ---
    And Wukong turned black...
[03:31] ---
    Mr. Sanzang.
[03:33] ---
    Please help us understand
    what's happening right now.
[03:36] ---
    This barrier can't hold that long though.
[03:41] ---
    Very well.
[03:42] ---
    I'll explain it to you.
[03:45] ---
    Qiongji and I...
[03:47] ---
    We both served the king.
[03:50] ---
    Eventually, divination showed the sign...
[03:53] ---
    And we were chosen
    to be the heir to the throne.
[03:57] ---
    Before we see another sign in the stars,
[03:59] ---
    just do what you must.
[04:01] ---
    -Yes, Your Majesty.
    -Yes, Your Majesty.
[04:05] ---
    Sanzang, the star has chosen you.
[04:19] ---
    It's my honor to receive this.
[04:21] ---
    Qiongji, try your best to support Sanzang.
[04:26] ---
    Yes, Your Majesty.
[04:31] ---
    The war had been going on for years,
    and it heated up during that time.
[04:37] ---
    Many planets were severely affected,
    including ours.
[04:43] ---
    I became the king,
[04:44] ---
    and I intended to stop that senseless war.
[04:47] ---
    I tried to
    resolve it peacefully, and yet...
[04:51] ---
    It was hard to end the war
    by talking over with people.
[04:56] ---
    So, our planet decided to build
    a defensive humanoid to protect ourselves.
[05:09] ---
    Are you telling me...
[05:11] ---
    Yes, that humanoid...
[05:15] ---
    That's Wukong.
[05:18] ---
    Wukong, he's...
[05:20] ---
    That's what I thought.
[05:23] ---
    We built the humanoid
    only to protect our people.
[05:27] ---
    But Qiongji...
[05:30] ---
    What's the point
    if these humanoids can't fight?
[05:33] ---
    We just need them to protect our people.
[05:35] ---
    I have no intention of waging war.
[05:38] ---
    You're too naive, Sanzang!
[05:39] ---
    Attacking is the best form of defense!
[05:41] ---
    We can't have peace
    without crushing our enemies!
[05:45] ---
    We must destroy our enemies!
[05:49] ---
    Why did the divination choose you
    to be the king?
[05:53] ---
    I'm definitely a better fit!
[05:56] ---
    If I were the king...
[05:58] ---
    I would have built
    a hyper offensive humanoid!
[06:01] ---
    Whoever goes against me,
    I'll destroy them all!
[06:05] ---
    Qiongji...
[06:11] ---
    That's why Qiongji turned
    Wukong and other humanoids...
[06:13] ---
    Wait!
[06:15] ---
    You just said
    Wukong and other humanoids, right?
[06:18] ---
    Yes, there were
    two other humanoids besides Wukong.
[06:21] ---
    Their names were Sha Wujing and Zhu Bajie.
[06:30] ---
    They actually existed.
[06:33] ---
    But now...
[06:35] ---
    They became one with Wukong.
[06:39] ---
    I didn't want them to be a mere armament.
[06:44] ---
    I wanted the three of them
    to work together and protect people.
[06:50] ---
    I want these humanoids to have a heart.
[06:55] ---
    That's why I started to travel
    and took them together with me.
[06:58] ---
    I wanted them to learn
    all sorts of things through travel.
[07:02] ---
    Stop that thief!
[07:15] ---
    Darn it...
[07:18] ---
    Don't take other people's things!
[07:20] ---
    Don't steal from the weak!
[07:23] ---
    Please forgive me!
[07:25] ---
    No!
[07:26] ---
    Wukong.
[07:28] ---
    That will do.
[07:30] ---
    But he's a bad guy!
[07:33] ---
    I'm really sorry!
[07:35] ---
    We got the wallet back,
    and he apologized for it.
[07:38] ---
    We should also learn to forgive.
[07:41] ---
    Hey, it's not good to steal.
[07:46] ---
    Yes, Master.
[07:48] ---
    Thank you so much!
[07:52] ---
    Since they were young,
[07:54] ---
    they sometimes lost control.
[07:58] ---
    But still, they grew a lot.
    Even more than I ever expected.
[08:04] ---
    Eventually, a bond formed between them,
[08:07] ---
    and they were bound
    by strong ties of friendship.
[08:10] ---
    It was their friendship...
[08:12] ---
    that rose
    kindness and justice inside of them.
[08:17] ---
    Wukong, Sha Wujing and Zhu Bajie.
[08:21] ---
    From now on,
    the three of you will work hand in hand...
[08:23] ---
    and become a world-saving hero.
[08:27] ---
    -Yes, Master.
    -Yes, Master.
[08:29] ---
    That's rubbish!
[08:30] ---
    Qiongji!
[08:32] ---
    What's the use of a hero?
[08:34] ---
    What this chaotic world needs...
[08:37] ---
    is an overwhelming power,
    to bring things under our control!
[08:40] ---
    A weapon and an armament.
[08:43] ---
    That's what you humanoids are!
[08:48] ---
    Stop it! They're not an armament!
[08:50] ---
    They have a heart!
[08:52] ---
    Can't you see that, Qiongji?
[08:56] ---
    Humanoids definitely don't have a heart!
[09:05] ---
    I'll take care of this.
[09:08] ---
    I'll leave it to you, Sima Yi.
[09:13] ---
    In the end, Qiongji...
[09:15] ---
    he got help from Sima Yi,
    who thinks in the same way he does,
[09:20] ---
    and he made them...
[09:21] ---
    So not just the dark mask,
[09:24] ---
    Sima Yi was also involved in
    what happened to Wukong.
[09:27] ---
    So, what did Sima Yi do?
[09:31] ---
    He imported Sha Wujing and Zhu Bajie's
    minds and power into Wukong's body.
[09:38] ---
    That's...
[09:39] ---
    It's a Trinity technology application
    that Master Zhang Jue came up with!
[09:44] ---
    Sima Yi misused that?
[09:48] ---
    Is he ever going to
    stop taunting Master Zhang?
[09:53] ---
    It's not just that.
[09:55] ---
    Qiongji was imprisoned for brainwashing
    Wukong and sending him to this planet.
[10:02] ---
    When Wukong got his memory back...
[10:16] ---
    This belongs to me.
[10:19] ---
    Qiongji!
[10:21] ---
    Stop!
[10:32] ---
    Qiongji!
[10:34] ---
    He landed on this planet after that.
[10:41] ---
    Just like he said.
[10:43] ---
    I really miss you, Wukong.
[10:47] ---
    There's still unknown power within you.
[10:51] ---
    I'll unleash all that power
    and make you the most powerful of all.
[10:57] ---
    Now, Wukong.
[10:58] ---
    Let's show them your power, shall we?
[11:08] ---
    Come along, chop chop.
    Destroy that small barrier.
[11:18] ---
    Wukong said
    he killed two of his friends, is that...
[11:23] ---
    That's not the truth.
[11:25] ---
    Qiongji implanted
    a false memory in Wukong's head.
[11:30] ---
    Does he know
    how much that made Wukong suffer?
[11:36] ---
    I knew
    you would lead Wukong to the right path.
[11:43] ---
    What Qiongji was trying to do...
[11:45] ---
    Was to make Wukong fight on this planet,
    because there're many good warriors here.
[11:49] ---
    He wants to make him more powerful.
[11:52] ---
    That's why he made Wukong
    escape from the prison on the moon.
[11:58] ---
    Now I see. You tried to contact us...
[12:02] ---
    because you wanted to stop Wukong
    from becoming an armament.
[12:06] ---
    That's why you made a point
    to hide Wukong's true identity,
[12:09] ---
    and urged us to take Wukong with us.
[12:13] ---
    Exactly.
[12:15] ---
    Then why did you
    ask us to gather those five Haros?
[12:19] ---
    If Haro's power could set me free...
[12:21] ---
    We might be able to stop Qiongji.
    That's what I thought, but...
[12:26] ---
    I never thought
    he would activate the Dark Dtar.
[12:32] ---
    The Dark Star...
[12:34] ---
    Is that moon what you were talking about?
[12:38] ---
    Yes, it has been activated.
[12:40] ---
    And it's now approaching Earth.
[12:43] ---
    Are you kidding me?
[12:45] ---
    What's going to happen?
[12:48] ---
    Anyways, now...
[12:50] ---
    We must stop Wukong from
    transforming into his ultimate form.
[12:55] ---
    Ultimate form, what's that...
[12:57] ---
    Because of Qiongji's power,
[12:59] ---
    Wukong's slowly
    transforming into a brutal armament.
[13:03] ---
    Once he completely loses his heart,
[13:05] ---
    our words
    won't be able to reach him anymore.
[13:08] ---
    What...
[13:10] ---
    What's going to trigger him
    to transform into the ultimate form?
[13:14] ---
    An emotional big bang...
[13:16] ---
    And if he resonates with the Dark Star...
[13:22] ---
    I'm not going to let that happen!
[13:26] ---
    I'll definitely bring Wukong to his senses!
[13:50] ---
    Well done, Wukong.
[13:53] ---
    Wake up, Wukong!
[13:56] ---
    That guy fooled you and he's using you!
[13:59] ---
    You didn't kill Sha Wujing and Zhu Bajie!
[14:05] ---
    Wukong...
[14:09] ---
    Liu Bei, he can't hear us anymore.
[14:12] ---
    We have to do this.
[14:14] ---
    No!
[14:15] ---
    I told Wukong.
[14:17] ---
    I said we don't eliminate our friends.
[14:20] ---
    That's why I'll
    bring Wukong back with my own hands!
[14:23] ---
    Liu Bei...
[14:26] ---
    He really is the man I thought he was.
[14:32] ---
    That's...
[14:45] ---
    Sima Yi...
[14:47] ---
    Please allow me to handle my soldiers.
[14:51] ---
    But still, that's a lot, eh?
[14:56] ---
    Let's wreak havoc!
[14:59] ---
    Yeah! I'm burning to try my hand!
[15:01] ---
    Let's slash them all!
[15:05] ---
    Here we go.
[15:13] ---
    -What?
    -That's...
[15:21] ---
    Arthur!
[15:23] ---
    It's been long, Caesar.
[15:25] ---
    Thank you so much for coming, King Arthur.
[15:29] ---
    That's what I thought.
[15:30] ---
    Merlin's bad gut instinct has come true.
[15:35] ---
    Oi, Liu Bei!
    Your Majesty's Haro is in their hands, huh?
[15:39] ---
    What the heck are you doing?
[15:40] ---
    I... I'll get it back now!
[15:43] ---
    I'll lend you a hand.
[15:44] ---
    Now Your Majesty and I are here.
    Everything will be alright!
[15:51] ---
    What's that?
[15:57] ---
    Mr. Verde Buster!
[15:58] ---
    Mr. Arsene!
[16:01] ---
    They take the moon?
[16:03] ---
    According to my data,
[16:05] ---
    we got 1200 secs before the Dark Star
    reaches the surface of the Earth.
[16:10] ---
    We should take immediate action.
[16:12] ---
    There's not much time left.
[16:14] ---
    Hey!
[16:17] ---
    Zhao Yun!
[16:21] ---
    Master, Mr. Verde, that's really mean!
[16:24] ---
    Why did you leave without me!
[16:26] ---
    Because this is a grown man's crusade.
[16:30] ---
    Master, that's so cool!
[16:32] ---
    Then I'll join the ranks of grown men!
[16:36] ---
    Hurry!
[16:37] ---
    Let's get the moon back!
[16:39] ---
    -Okay!
    -Okay!
[16:46] ---
    So many of your friends came,
    I'm so happy for you.
[16:50] ---
    But you're going to say goodbye forever.
[16:58] ---
    Liu Bei. Just leave the small fry to us.
[17:02] ---
    You take care of Wukong.
[17:04] ---
    Okay!
[17:08] ---
    I'll handle Qiongji.
[17:13] ---
    I'll handle Sima Yi.
[17:20] ---
    Here we come.
[17:38] ---
    Qiongji!
[17:45] ---
    Sima Yi!
[18:25] ---
    Qiongji!
[18:26] ---
    We can't treat Wukong like an armament!
[18:29] ---
    He also has a heart!
[18:31] ---
    You always talk
    about these childish spiritual things.
[18:35] ---
    That's what I hate about you!
[18:59] ---
    The Dark Star, Wukong was brainwashed...
[19:02] ---
    You're the one who did them all, right?
[19:05] ---
    So what?
[19:07] ---
    You misused Master Zhang Jue's technology!
[19:11] ---
    Misused?
[19:12] ---
    Please don't
    make it sound like a bad thing.
[19:16] ---
    It got plowed under and I made use of it.
[19:19] ---
    That's what I did.
[19:21] ---
    Why don't you use your talents for good?
[19:25] ---
    People like you walk on a bright path.
    You will never understand why.
[19:32] ---
    I've been living in your shadow,
    it's all your fault...
[19:38] ---
    What a fool. I'll never forgive you!
[19:43] ---
    Do you think you can defeat me?
[19:47] ---
    Yes!
[19:49] ---
    I'm not the fool here. You are.
[19:55] ---
    Can you keep up, Zhuge Liang?
[20:13] ---
    Wukong! Listen to me!
[20:16] ---
    Wukong!
[20:28] ---
    Wukong, listen!
[20:30] ---
    We're friends, right?
[20:33] ---
    Friends?
[20:45] ---
    Friends...
[20:48] ---
    Friends... I eliminate them...
[20:52] ---
    Eliminate them, and become more powerful!
[20:56] ---
    That's wrong!
    I'll definitely bring you back!
[21:18] ---
    Not so good, eh?
[21:21] ---
    That's enough! Get off of me!
[21:29] ---
    My soldiers, come back to your senses!
[21:36] ---
    Too bad.
[21:38] ---
    There's no way you can stop Wukong now.
[21:40] ---
    No.
[21:42] ---
    I'll trust Wukong till the very end.
[21:49] ---
    It's already too late!
[21:52] ---
    Dark Star.
[21:55] ---
    Give me dark power!
[22:06] ---
    The game is over.
[23:44] ---
    You're not alone. We'll be with you.
[23:47] ---
    Wukong, be a world-saving hero!
