[00:09] Ittoki
    Thank you, everyone, for
    gathering here today.
[00:14] Ittoki
    I have determined Iga's reply to Koga
    Acting Chief Kidou Minobe's letter.
[00:22] Ittoki
    I will cede Iga's secret Ninja Core to Koga.
[00:25] Ittoki
    My demand in exchange
[00:27] Ittoki
    will be that Koga acknowledge Iga's autonomy.
[00:32] Kozo
    Hold on, sir.
[00:33] Kozo
    Does that mean you're surrendering to Koga?
[00:36] Ittoki
    It is not a surrender.
[00:38] Ittoki
    It is an offer of terms
    for an agreement in which
[00:41] Ittoki
    Iga maintains the independence and
    autonomy it has heretofore possessed.
[00:45] Yokogawa
    Will they accept a demand like that?
[00:48] Chikamatsu
    No, this is wrong! Anything that
    means handing over the Core is wrong!
[00:52] Kozo
    To begin with, Chief, do you believe
    Koga will honor its promises?
[00:56] Ittoki
    Countermeasures are in place.
[00:57] Ittoki
    No matter what any of you say,
    I will not be changing course.
[01:02] Kozo
    Tokisada, what are your thoughts on this?
[01:05] Tokisada
    I...
[01:07] Tokisada
    abide by the chief's decision.
[01:12] Ittoki
    Just think about the situation.
[01:15] Ittoki
    In a fight against Koga's ninjas and
    hundreds or thousands of machines,
[01:19] Ittoki
    do you believe Iga can survive?
[01:21] Chikamatsu
    Like I've said many times, we just need
    to attack Koga before they attack us!
[01:26] Shiota
    Better to risk everything than
     to sit and wait to die!
[01:30] Yokogawa
    Let's go avenge Chief Yumika,
    with every ninja in Iga!
[01:34] Reiha
    I don't imagine any of us
    feel this path is right.
[01:38] Reiha
    But at this point,
[01:39] Reiha
    for Iga to survive,
[01:41] Reiha
    there is no other path!
[01:47] Ittoki
    Very well.
[01:51] Ittoki
    If you cannot abide by my
    decision, then leave Iga.
[01:56] Ittoki
    I will strike your name from
    the register and expel you.
[02:00] Reiha
    Do you really mean that?
[02:02] Ittoki
    I do not wish to do this either.
[02:05] Ittoki
    However, I believe that once time
    has passed and you have calmed down,
[02:09] Ittoki
    you will all understand.
[02:12] Chikamatsu
    This is bullshit!
[02:16] Tokisada
    I will regard further outbursts
    as mutiny against the chief.
[02:20] Ittoki
    This concludes the meeting.
SIGN    Reconciliation
[02:35] Shione Kouzuki
    What?
[02:36] Juzen
    That's it. Meeting over.
[02:38] Shione Kouzuki
    Hold on, sir!
[02:40] Shione Kouzuki
    Reconciliation? With Koga?!
[02:41] Shione Kouzuki
    What's going on?
[02:43] Juzen
    The Iga Chief made the request personally
[02:46] Juzen
    that we serve as witnesses for
    the conclusion of a peace treaty.
[02:52] Shione Kouzuki
    The Iga Chief requested it?
[02:53] Juzen
    The NSC will accept the request.
[02:57] Shione Kouzuki
    This makes no sense!
[02:58] Shione Kouzuki
    Koga isn't even trying
    to hide its mass murders,
[03:01] Shione Kouzuki
    much less its Ninja Ordinances violations.
[03:03] Shione Kouzuki
    We should round them all up at once!
[03:06] Juzen
    There's no evidence.
[03:08] Juzen
    The ninjas from the destroyed villages
    are nearly all dead or missing.
[03:13] Juzen
    At this point, Koga's only established
    crime is its assault on Iga.
[03:18] Shione Kouzuki
    But sir, someone needs to stop them.
[03:21] Juzen
    What's important is reaching a settlement.
[03:24] Juzen
    Iga has promised not to pursue
    charges for Koga's aggressions
[03:27] Juzen
    and to provide Koga with the secret Core.
[03:32] Juzen
    In return, Koga would pay damages,
[03:36] Juzen
    and both sides would promise complete
    nonaggression toward the other.
[03:40] Juzen
    In the event of a violation,
    the NSC steps in immediately.
[03:46] Juzen
    This will allow us to put a collar on Koga.
[03:50] Shione Kouzuki
    After all they did, we're just going
    to let them get away with most of it?
[03:55] Shione Kouzuki
    Are you saying we can
    uphold justice like that?
[04:00] Juzen
    The job of the NSC
[04:03] Juzen
    is to uphold peace.
[04:06] Juzen
    The issue going forward will be
[04:08] Juzen
    Iga's secret Ninja Core once
    it passes into Koga's hands.
[04:12] Juzen
    To ensure it is not put to military
    use, our job will be to monitor Koga
[04:16] Juzen
    and keep them in check.
[04:20] Juzen
    If anything, the test of the NSC's
    reason for being is yet to come.
[04:25] Enbi
    What, and just wag our tails for the NSC?
[04:28] Enbi
    Don't you have any pride?
[04:31] Koga Higher-up E1
    We would obtain the secret Ninja Core,
[04:33] Koga Higher-up E1
    but the treaty provisions
    prohibit military use.
[04:37] Enbi
    Those pieces of shit! What good is
    it if we can't use it in the Asuras?
[04:41] Koga Higher-up E2
    This is a pretty smooth move they've made.
[04:44] Enbi
    We should turn this crap down!
[04:47] Koga Higher-up G
    Are you suggesting we oppose the NSC?
[04:52] Kidou
    It would not be wise to start something
    with the NSC at this moment.
[04:56] Enbi
    Then we're going to accept the peace treaty?
[04:59] Kidou
    No.
[05:00] Kidou
    We'll get our hands on the secret Core first.
[05:03] Kidou
    We will postpone our reply to the NSC.
[05:06] Kidou
    We'll use that period to prepare
    a second assault on Iga.
[05:10] Enbi
    I expect gathering the personnel
    and deploying the Asuras
[05:14] Enbi
    will require quite some time.
[05:16] Kidou
    No matter.
[05:17] Kidou
    Stamp out Iga and take the secret Ninja Core.
[05:22] Enbi
    I'm sure the NSC will have
    something to say about that.
[05:25] Enbi
    But as long as we complete the Asuras...
[05:30] Kidou
    Yes,
[05:33] Kidou
    that will be checkmate.
[05:40] Shione Kouzuki
    Come on, girl.
[05:44] Shione Kouzuki
    There has been no reply from Koga
    regarding the proposed peace treaty.
[05:48] Ittoki
    I see.
[05:50] Ittoki
    Would it be possible to have you arrange
    an opportunity to talk with them?
[05:53] Shione Kouzuki
    They have been refusing all
    talks with the NSC as well.
[05:57] Shione Kouzuki
    I... doubt it will be possible.
[06:01] Ittoki
    I understand.
[06:03] Ittoki
    Thank you for taking the trouble
    to come all the way here.
[06:06] Shione Kouzuki
    No,
[06:08] Shione Kouzuki
    it was our failure to act that
    forced you into this position.
[06:14] Shione Kouzuki
    I am deeply sorry.
[06:17] Ittoki
    Please, raise your head.
[06:19] Tokisada
    You only did your job.
[06:24] Shione Kouzuki
    I'll be going now.
[06:28] Ittoki
    Wait.
[06:32] Ittoki
    Could I consult with you on something?
[06:36] Kirei
    Ryoko!
[06:44] Kirei
    What did I expect?
[06:57] Kirei
    Knock, knock!
[07:01] Kirei
    I'm coming in!
[07:04] Ryoko
    I'm sorry. I have to keep
    working on this part.
[07:07] Kirei
    Oh, sorry, sorry...
[07:12] Kirei
    It's awful that everything's
    been burned down...
[07:15] Ryoko
    Things break. They can be fixed again.
[07:19] Kirei
    You could take a break...
[07:22] Ryoko
    No, I can't.
[07:26] Ryoko
    This is the only thing I can do.
[07:31] Ryoko
    Ninja tool construction and maintenance.
    That's the job of Saiga village.
[07:37] Ryoko
    Even if there's no one else here...
[07:41] Ryoko
    I...
[07:47] Ryoko
    I'll never...
[07:50] Ryoko
    be all that strong...
[07:54] Ryoko
    I'm the same as a ninja tool.
     I need a wielder.
[07:59] Ryoko
    On my own... I'm useless.
[08:04] Kirei
    You're amazing, Ryoko.
[08:06] Kirei
    Even all alone,
[08:09] Kirei
    you're trying to fulfill your duty.
[08:12] Kirei
    I...
[08:14] Kirei
    wasn't able to do that.
[08:19] Kirei
    You see, my dad...
[08:21] Kirei
    he died.
[08:23] Kirei
    Still, I wasn't sad one bit.
[08:27] Kirei
    I hated him.
[08:29] Kirei
    He trained me to lie and betray everyone
    to ensure our puny village's survival.
[08:35] Kirei
    You know, it's poetic. In the end,
    he was betrayed by Koga and died.
[08:41] Kirei
    I felt relieved.
[08:42] Kirei
    I was finally gonna be free.
[08:45] Ryoko
    Free from what?
[08:47] Kirei
    Passing intel on Iga to Koga.
[08:51] Kirei
    That was my job as a Fuma ninja.
[08:55] Kirei
    You know, Ittoki's mom's death was my fault.
[08:59] Kirei
    What happened to Iga village
    was also because of me.
[09:03] Kirei
    Because I told Koga that Tokisada was gone.
[09:09] Kirei
    I'm sure of it.
[09:13] Kirei
    And so... in the end I betrayed
    everyone... hurt everyone...
[09:19] Kirei
    and all I had left was my life...
[09:22] Kirei
    Nothing else.
[09:24] Kirei
    But the terrible things I've done
[09:30] Kirei
    will never go away.
[09:40] Ryoko
    That may be true,
[09:42] Ryoko
    but you're still my dear friend.
[09:44] Kirei
    Were you listening?
[09:45] Kirei
    I was lying to you and everyone.
[09:48] Ryoko
    What about just now?
[09:55] Ryoko
    Everything about your father? About Fuma?
[09:59] Ryoko
    The tears you're shedding now?
[10:03] Ryoko
    Is that all a lie?
[10:09] Ryoko
    Kirei, the time I spent with you was real.
[10:14] Ryoko
    I...
[10:18] Ryoko
    believe that
[10:19] Ryoko
    in my heart.
[10:38] Secretary
    You have a call.
[10:40] Kidou
    From who?
[10:41] Secretary
    I do not know.
[10:42] Secretary
    He only said to put him through to the chief.
[10:44] Secretary
    The call is from Mr. Housen's home number.
[10:50] Kidou
    Put him through.
[10:52] Suzaku
    Chief Kidou. It has been some time, sir.
[10:55] Suzaku
    This is Suzaku Ban.
[10:57] Kidou
    What do you want?
[10:58] Suzaku
    I found a video file with audio
    that my father was hiding.
[11:05] Kidou
    Did you watch it?
[11:06] Suzaku
    Yes, sir.
[11:07] Kidou
    Did you show anyone?
[11:10] Suzaku
    No.
[11:11] Suzaku
    I wish to turn this file over to you, sir.
[11:15] Suzaku
    I am not like my father.
[11:18] Suzaku
    This file is proof of my loyalty.
[11:23] Suzaku
    Grant me a place to die as a Koga ninja.
[11:28] Kidou
    I will send someone over.
[11:30] Kidou
    Hand over the file and then rendezvous
    with the Second Iga Assault teams.
[11:42] Ittoki
    Should I take this to mean
    you have made your decision?
[11:45] Kozo
    I will speak and represent
    the consensus of Iga.
[11:50] Kozo
    We firmly reject the conclusion
    of a peace treaty with Koga.
[11:55] Kozo
    To toss aside the Iga spirit is to
     toss aside being an Iga ninja.
[12:02] Ittoki
    So then, you will accept expulsion?
[12:06] Kozo
    No.
[12:07] Kozo
    We wish for you to renounce
    your authority as chief, sir.
[12:13] Kozo
    The burden of Iga village is
    too great for you to bear.
[12:17] Kozo
    This is our fault for failing
    to see something so obvious.
[12:23] Kozo
    We will not install a new chief.
[12:26] Kozo
    From now on, we'll all protect Iga together.
[12:33] Ittoki
    I will not vacate the position of chief.
[12:35] Ittoki
    I cannot give away the final
    thing my mother entrusted to me.
[12:41] Kozo
    I can't hold it in any more!
[12:43] Kozo
    What you said is like the whining of a child.
[12:46] Kozo
    What Chief Yumika entrusted to you was not
    the position of chief, but Iga itself!
[12:50] Kozo
    And you're about to toss that aside!
[12:53] Kozo
    Can you look your mother
    in the face like this?
[12:58] Ittoki
    I will not be dissuaded.
[13:01] Ittoki
    If you are going to continue your
    opposition, I will expel you.
[13:13] Kozo
    So we're out of other moves to make.
[13:15] Kozo
    We'll start preparing at once.
[13:37] Koga Ninja 1
    Target not found.
[13:39] Koga Ninja 1
    Appears to have fled.
[13:41] Kidou
    Go after him at once.
     Make sure you retrieve the file.
[13:45] Koga Ninja 1
    Understood, sir.
[13:47] Suzaku
    When is the assault on Iga?
[13:49] Koga Ninja 1
    Tomorrow... at midnight.
[14:00] Tokisada
    What are you doing?
[14:04] Tokisada
    What is it?
[14:04] Kirei
    Um, is Ittoki here?
[14:08] Tokisada
    He can't see you right now.
[14:10] Tokisada
    I can bring him a message.
[14:17] Kirei
    "I'm sorry for lying to you and
    betraying you all this time."
[14:22] Kirei
    Could you tell him that for me?
[14:24] Tokisada
    You mean how you used that
    bird to pass Koga intel?
[14:27] Kirei
    You knew?
[14:31] Kirei
    I know I did something unforgivable.
[14:34] Kirei
    It's my fault that Ittoki's mom...
[14:37] Tokisada
    No. The true traitor is someone else.
[14:41] Tokisada
    It remains true that you created one
    of the factors that put Iga in a corner.
[14:46] Tokisada
    But at the same time, Iga owes you a lot.
[14:49] Tokisada
    It was you that blew up the
    charging station, right?
[14:55] Tokisada
    That makes everything even.
[14:57] Tokisada
    Oh, about your message. I'll have
    to wait a while to deliver it.
[15:02] Tokisada
    Ittoki is fighting on his own right now.
[15:06] Tokisada
    I don't want to ruin that.
[15:28] Ryoko
    Get that where it needs to be.
[15:53] Kozo
    We will now restrain the chief
    and obtain the secret Ninja Core.
[15:58] Kozo
    Tokisada is currently out
    on the chief's orders.
[16:03] Kozo
    There's no one inside but the
    chief and Kousetsu in the cellar.
[16:07] Kozo
    All of you will keep watch on the
    perimeter in case Tokisada comes back.
[16:12] Reiha
    What if the chief flees?
[16:14] Kozo
    Then capture him promptly.
[16:16] Kozo
    Be a little rough if necessary.
[16:19] Kozo
    I will retrieve the secret Core myself.
[16:22] Kidou
    A coup d'état, eh?
[16:24] Kidou
    Iga has fallen as low as it could.
[16:27] Reiha
    Kozo intends to make the chief
    release the seal on the secret Core
[16:29] Reiha
    so it can be used as a
    trump card to fight Koga.
[16:32] Kidou
    Tokisada's absence is an
    opportunity. Don't waste it.
[16:35] Kidou
    Get ahead of Kozo and obtain the Core.
[16:37] Reiha
    But—
[16:38] Kidou
    Do it.
[16:39] Kidou
    There's a life you want to save, isn't there?
[16:43] Kozo
    The chief is currently in the inner room.
[16:45] Kozo
    We'll carry out the plan in ten
    minutes. No one leave your post.
[17:04] Kozo
    What are you doing here?
[17:09] Kozo
    I told you not to leave your post, Reiha.
[17:14] Kozo
    I can't believe it was you.
[17:27] Ittoki
    It was not Kousetsu that killed the
    previous chief, but a traitor in Iga.
[17:32] (Flashback) Ittoki
    As things stand, Koga will
    always have the upper hand.
[17:36] (Flashback) Ittoki
    Right now I want to prioritize identifying
     the traitor above all else.
[17:40] (Flashback) Kozo
    I see. So threatening everyone with
    expulsion was a way to buy time to do that.
[17:47] (Flashback) Ittoki
    Kozo, I need you to put on an act.
[17:52] (Flashback) Kozo
    Why did you decide to trust me?
[17:56] (Flashback) Ittoki
    Because I believe the people
    of Iga trust you most.
[18:00] (Flashback) Ittoki
    If you were the traitor, then
    I couldn't trust anybody, could I?
[18:05] Kozo
    How long?
[18:07] Kozo
    Don't tell me it was you
    that killed Chief Yumika!
[18:10] Reiha
    What's the point of asking that now?
[18:12] Reiha
    All you need to do is kill me right now.
[18:14] Kozo
    How could you? Do you realize how
    much blood was shed because of you?
[18:18] Reiha
    How can you devotedly serve Iga?
[18:22] Reiha
    Has Iga done anything for you?
[18:24] Reiha
    It's poor, and it's weak. And on top of that,
[18:29] Reiha
    it took my husband from me.
[18:32] Reiha
    And yet she would only ever
    tell me to bear the pain.
[18:37] Reiha
    Kidou told me he'd save my husband!
[18:40] Reiha
    That's why I clung to him!
[18:41] Reiha
    What's wrong with that?
[18:46] Kozo
    He was only using you.
    Why can't you see that?
[18:51] Reiha
    I'm not strong enough to be
    able to live with so much pain.
[18:58] Kozo
    What did you take?
[18:59] Chikamatsu
    Oh no!
[19:00] Shiota
    Hurry! Make her vomit it out!
[19:01] Chikamatsu
    We need to get her to the hospital!
SIGN    To all the Iga ninjas, First, I respectfully offer my sincere apologies for deceiving you and testing you to find the traitor. I did it all for the sake of making peace between Iga and Koga a reality. But I am forced to say that may well be impossible. As a result of Tokisada's investigation, it has become clear that Koga Chief Kidou Minobe's true objective...
[19:09] Ittoki
    To all the Iga ninjas,
[19:13] Ittoki
    First, I respectfully offer my
    sincere apologies for deceiving you
[19:16] Ittoki
    and testing you to find the traitor.
[19:21] Ittoki
    I did it all for the sake of making
    peace between Iga and Koga a reality.
[19:26] Ittoki
    But I am forced to say that
    may well be impossible.
[19:32] (Flashback) Ittoki
    The Koga Chief's aim might
    not be revenge against Iga,
[19:35] (Flashback) Ittoki
    or even to gain power and
    control over the ninjas.
[19:39] (Flashback) Ittoki
    I realized that from talking to Suzaku.
[19:42] (Flashback) Tokisada
    His killing of high-ranking ninja Housen
    Ban deviates from the expected course.
[19:47] (Flashback) Tokisada
    I'll investigate.
[19:49] (Flashback) Ittoki
    Thanks.
[19:51] Ittoki
    As a result of Tokisada's investigation,
[19:53] Ittoki
    it has become clear that Koga Chief
    Kidou Minobe's true objective
[20:00] Ittoki
    is to exterminate all ninjas.
[20:04] Suzaku
    You're investigating my father's death?
[20:11] Suzaku
    This has all the information you
    want. I don't need it anymore.
[20:17] Suzaku
    Stay out of my way.
[20:19] Suzaku
    That's all I ask.
[20:21] Ittoki
    Most likely, by the time you are reading
    this, Koga will have Iga surrounded.
[20:27] Ittoki
    Absolutely do not fight them. Just run.
[20:30] Ittoki
    As long as you are all alive,
[20:33] Ittoki
    Iga village can continue on.

    Don't tell me he...
[20:36] Ittoki
    Do not fight them. Just run.
SIGN    Register of Sworn Iga Ninjas
[20:38] Ittoki
    What I was actually trying to accomplish was...
[20:43] (Flashback) Tokisada
    While investigating the
    mechanical ninja warehouse,
[20:46] (Flashback) Tokisada
    I saw signs that the vast
    majority had been moved.
[20:49] (Flashback) Ittoki
    To attack Iga, no doubt.
[20:51] (Flashback) Tokisada
    Yes. That is practically certain.
[20:54] (Flashback) Ittoki
    Is there no way to negotiate?
[20:57] (Flashback) Tokisada
    The Koga Chief appears to have cut
    off all contact with the outside.
[21:00] (Flashback) Tokisada
    Direct negotiation would be tough.
[21:04] (Flashback) Ittoki
    When Koga attacks Iga,
    their defenses will be thin.
[21:07] (Flashback) Ittoki
    Find out when the attack will be.
[21:09] (Flashback) Ittoki
    I'll go in alone and negotiate
    with Koga's chief.
[21:12] (Flashback) Tokisada
    That won't work.
[21:14] (Flashback) Tokisada
    However much their defenses thin,
[21:16] (Flashback) Tokisada
    the Koga headquarters will
    still have formidable security.
[21:20] (Flashback) Ittoki
    No. With the secret Ninja
    Core I can break through.
[21:25] (Flashback) Ittoki
    It's the only way to stop
    Koga without hurting anyone.
[21:33] Ittoki
    This is not for revenge.
[21:35] Ittoki
    It's for my mother,
[21:37] Ittoki
    it's for Iga,
[21:40] Ittoki
    and most of all,
[21:47] Ittoki
    it's for me.

    While we were busy fussing about the
    village, he... I can't believe it!
[22:23] Chikamatsu
    Let's go now and support him!
    Don't let the chief die!
[22:26] Kozo
    No!
[22:28] Kozo
    If we go, the chief's
    actions will be in vain.
[22:31] Iga Ninja 1
    But...
[22:32] Kozo
    Our chief is fighting right now.
[22:35] Kozo
    Everyone,
[22:38] Kozo
    do you still have the resolve to protect Iga?
[22:42] Kozo
    We'll disobey just one of the chief's orders.
[22:46] Kozo
    We'll fight here.
[22:49] Kozo
    To prevent Koga from catching on to the
    chief's plan, we'll keep them busy here.
[22:54] Kozo
    That will both protect
    Iga and help the chief.
[22:59] Kozo
    But you must swear not to die!

[23:16] Kozo
    stay safe.
