400 years ago,

Queen Hijau ruled Langkasuka with formidable strength.

But neighboring states, rebel groups

and marauding bands of pirates

were determined on conquering her wealthy territory.

In 1593,

a Dutch weapon master Janis Bree traveled to Langkasuka

with his Chinese apprentice, the genius inventor called Lim Kium.

They were delivering the Great Cannons to Queen Hijau

to be used to defend her country.

But the Dutch vessel was hijacked by pirates led by Black Raven,

a ruthless bandit who has mastered Du Lum sorcery.

Black Raven tried unsuccessfully to steal the Great Cannons.

The ship was blown to bits and Janis Bree was killed.

The cannons sunk into the depths of the sea.

LEGEND OF THE TSUNAMI WARRIOR

Kium.

Let me try it.

No.

You're too young.

That's even better, because I'm light.

I can take off with no trouble.

I won't risk it.

If something happens to you, Anjar would kill me.

Your uncle is scarier than a shark.

Come on kids, help me get this thing up.

Whoa!

Look, I'm flying!

That's awesome!

Look! A bird with a broken wing!

Grow some feathers if you want to fly!

Today I have a new invention to show you kids.

What is it?

I call them...

frog feet.

Frog feet?

Yes, I believe this new invention of mine

will help you swim like a real fish.

Follow me if you want to try.

Bintang, what's wrong?

Here.

I went down to the seafloor to get it for you.

Presenting the honorable envoys from Japan.

Jarang. What are you doing here?

Father.

I won the contest

and was promoted to be the royal bodyguard.

You've been in Ayutthaya too long.

You're still young, but you're having such a bright career.

If your mother were here she would be so proud.

For me, to serve Langkasuka is the greatest honor of my life.

I'm sure you feel the same.

Presenting the honorable envoys from Aden.

Get the princesses out!

- Salem! - Bilung!

Uncle Anjar, where are we going?

What's that sound?

Pari, hurry up.

Come.

Anjar.

Pari, pay respects to the Master.

Is this Arus's son?

His name is Pari.

- Arus and his wife... - I know.

Why did you bring him here?

To ask you to train him in the arts of Du Lum.

The boy has the same quality as you.

He was born on the sea.

He can speak through his stomach.

Even if he could speak with his feet it'd be pointless.

Du Lum wizardry isn't meant for violent killing.

But somebody must stop Black Raven.

He's been terrorizing the sea people for far too long.

You kill one Black Raven

only to create another Black Raven.

- But... - Anjar...

forget about revenge.

Teach him to love, not to hate.

Just train him in the basic Du Lum

to help him get by as a fisherman.

Master...

What?

I heard something howling.

It's the howl of darkness.

The howl of darkness?

Yes.

If you practice Du Lum with the fire of hatred,

darkness will scream inside your soul.

If White Ray refuses to teach you,

I'll do it myself.

But the old man said that practicing Du Lum

will condemn me to hear the howl of darkness.

Pari, you'll learn the virtuous arts of Du Lum.

You'll need it to fight the evil man.

Who's he?

Black Raven.

We're lucky to have stopped the poison from spreading.

But the scar on his face...

That's not a problem,

as long as he lives.

The queen has arrived!

Don't worry, Lord Jaring.

This country is indebted

to your son's courage.

I won't let his sacrifice go to waste.

Prince Rawai will pay for this dearly.

Du Lum sorcery consists of three major levels

and nine sublevels.

The first three levels I'm going to teach you

will help you distinguish different sounds

made by different kinds of fish.

You'll be able to read the weather,

the temperature, the humidity,

the water currents and the wind.

You'll sense the connection between the fish and the climate.

And you'll read the minds of fish.

You'll be able to predict the currents,

and to locate schools of fish.

The fish will also tell you when the rain is coming.

In the next three levels,

you'll be able to produce a special sound of Du Lum

that can command fish to do what you want them to,

even to attack your enemy.

Your mind will connect with that of the fish.

But to communicate with all sea creatures,

you have to be trained in the advanced techniques.

Only Master White Ray can teach you that.

A school of Lamachin fish is over there.

Mm-hmm.

Bintang...

this is for you.

Pari, thank you for saving me back there.

They almost got me.

Did you build this strange boat?

Yes, and those strange weapons too.

We secretly built this boat a while back.

To ambush and kill Black Raven's pirates.

But too bad we still can't get close

to the man himself.

Let me join you.

One day I'll get rid of all these sea gypsy pests!

Calm down.

We can shoot two birds with one stone.

What's your plan, Prince?

Even though we still can't retrieve the Great Cannons...

we can strengthen the army

by gathering all pirates of the sea and making them our allies.

Our plan will become much easier.

And why do you think the pirates

would want to work with us?

Apparently...

Langkasuka is not capable of building a cannon

of great firepower.

We must find a new cannon master as soon as possible.

Why act in such haste?

We have no wars to fight.

Haji Kadir,

as long as Prince Rawai is still alive,

we cannot let our guard down.

I can't believe we wouldn't be able to find

a skilled cannon master in our great kingdom.

Tuk Rahman, do you have something to say?

The Chinese apprentice of the cannon master Janis Bree

lives in Langkasuka.

Really?

What's his name?

Lim Kium.

Where did you get this information?

A few days ago I took the Dutch envoy out for drinks.

He got drunk and told me

that he was a survivor from when the pirates hijacked

the Dutch vessel that carried the Great Cannons.

Another survivor is Lim Kium.

The envoy said he's now living in the fishing village of Ledah.

Find this Lim Kium.

If he's working for the rebels, kill him.

Or if he refuses to join us, kill him anyway.

Ungu, I'm starting to fear for your future husband.

What beautiful skill!

You certainly live up to your reputation.

Who are you to dare enter the royal grounds?

I'm a guest of your queen.

And you return our hospitality

by disrupting my practice.

Please forgive me.

Who are you?

I am Abdul Kafur Mohaidin.

The Prince of Pahang.

Ungu.

You're due to be engaged in two days,

and you will be married by next year.

No man would want a wife who carries a crossbow around.

As if I'm dying to get married.

The Prince of Pahang has arrived.

I fear that he'll change his mind when he meets you.

He's already met Ungu.

And I've already chased him away.

That's not funny, Ungu.

Langkasuka has no allies,

and Pahang's friendship is very important to us.

That's it?

That's why you have to marry me off?

Lord Nakorn Srithammarat

and the Sultan of Songkhla are sizing us up and are ready to invade.

And Prince Rawai

is ganging up with Black Raven and the pirates.

We're surrounded by enemies.

Do you really need more reasons?

Congratulations, Lord Vandeveer.

Your VOC Company at Battavia is expanding

its trade activity very fast.

I am very grateful for Langkasuka's help,

but indeed, the regional trade

will see an even brighter future if the Dutch

would enjoy the right as sole trader.

Sir Vandeveer,

a meal wouldn't be so appetizing

if you ate it alone, would it?

The envoy.

I hope you find your room comfortable.

It is very comfortable indeed.

Thank you for your hospitality, Princess Biru.

This is Miss Lim,

the daughter of a merchant in Guang Zhou.

She traveled with me from China.

Miss Lim.

Is this your first trip to Langkasuka?

Yes, Your Majesty.

I came with the envoy to look for my brother.

Your brother lives here?

Yes.

He's been living here for several years.

His name is Lim Kium.

Lim Kium, Janis Bree's apprentice?

Yes.

I've promised my mother

to bring him back home with me.

If I can't find him, I can't go back to face her.

We also want to meet your brother.

Can you take us to him?

Yes, Your Majesty.

Langkasuka has found the paths to the cannon expert.

More than one person actually survived the attack,

like you expected.

Mmm.

What's more important is the fact that

Langkasuka is forming an alliance with Pahang.

When the two kingdoms are united,

our job will be more difficult.

It's time

we show them the strength of our own friends.

Who do you think should carry out the mission?

The Japanese pirates.

The Wako.

Prince, get out of here!

Pari,

now I belong to you.

May I present a gift from Shogun Tokugawa?

Presenting Lord Farus Mogul,

the envoy from Songkhla.

This is a gift from our Sultan Suleiman.

Presenting Lord Harid Fami,

the envoy from Jahor.

Search the ship.

I'll look inside.

Anjar!

Kium!

Whoo!

Go!

- Hey, where you going? - Go!

- Go down! - All right.

Move!

Go!

Stop!

Or the old man dies!

Lim, what does this cannibal want from me?

The cannons.

Never! Light it!

Light it now!

Master!

Go!

Lim, go. Go.

Master!

Kium.

Bintang!

Bintang! Bintang!

Please accept my apology.

I've sent Biru and Ungu

on an urgent mission.

So they're not here to say farewell to you.

I'll inform you without delay

when we've set the date of the wedding.

Thank you for your kindness.

The monsoon season is approaching.

I need to head home.

Farewell, Your Majesty.

I'd like to express my gratitude for your son's bravery.

Thank you for your kindness.

A gypsy warrior?

You shouldn't have dragged innocent people into this mess.

Anyway, thanks to you,

I've had the good chance to taste the women from your village.

I must say they all taste rather nice.

A fearless fighter?

You'll meet your wife in hell!

There's only one injured man in the whole village.

And those dead bodies don't look like the natives.

Let Miss Kium take a look.

Pari.

All these years

I've only wanted to avenge

my master's death.

I never thought my arrogance would bring death

to my brothers in the village.

I don't have the heart

to think about anything else now.

You have my sympathy, Master Lim.

Their deaths won't be in vain

if you agree to help us build a cannon.

In the past many years,

I have always helped you

by ambushing Black Raven pirates.

I don't want any more blood on my hands than I already have.

Do I have a choice?

Think about it carefully.

If you refuse,

I'll have to ask you to go back to China with your sister.

What a catch!

Princesses, you should be honored

that I'm here to escort you.

Take them to the ship.

Quick!

Take them away.

Throw them in jail!

Kium. Kium.

Who are you?

I'm Jarang from Langkasuka.

Thank you.

You are?

Lord Jarang.

We have to go, Princesses!

Pari, run!

They won't kill me. Save the others first.

Quick!

- We have to run, Princess. - Ungu!

This way.

- Princess, please hurry up. - And Ungu?

You have to go now, we don't have time!

My wife's poisoned dart failed to kill you.

Now I'm going to kill you with my own hands!

Lord Jarang.

Black Raven!

Ungu!

We've lost her.

I'm not going to lose you too!

There! Shoot him!

The master is alive.

It's a pity.

What?

It's a pity that your cheerful smile

has disappeared.

10 years ago you had a sparkle in your eyes.

Now it's completely gone.

Pari,

hatred echoes to eternity.

I can't help it.

They killed everyone I loved.

Had you not killed their men,

they wouldn't have come after your woman.

Forgive.

Let the cycle end at you,

and you'll understand the impermanence of life.

Forgiveness won't give me back

my father, my mother, Uncle Anjar

and my wife.

But would revenge?

Would it bring back the lives

of those people?

Where is this place?

Ray Island, my home.

Where do you think you're going?

Back home to Langkasuka.

You won't be going anywhere for quite a while.

Why not?

Because the fish will make a meal out of you.

The monsoon season's here... terrible winds and waves.

It's suicide sailing in this weather.

Biru.

Are you injured?

I'm fine.

But Ungu...

What happened to her?

I failed to protect the princess.

Please take my life as a punishment.

I believe you did your best.

In fact, Langkasuka is even more indebted to you.

I'll drag out this villainous spy

who had a hand in my sister's death!

Who are you? What are you doing here?

And who are you? What are you doing here?

I'm Pari.

I'm Black Ray.

Black Ray?

What are you to White Ray?

He's locked me up in the dark...

even though he and I are no different.

Is he your master?

He refuses to teach me.

He said my heart is full of hatred.

The more hatred, the better.

I'll be your master if he doesn't want to.

That's what hatred can do.

I believe you have the answer I want to hear.

You seem to love your sister very much.

Remember...

you have until the end of the monsoon season.

Very good.

Fix your breath at your stomach

and spread it through your body.

Pari...

you're the most gifted of all my pupils.

The more hatred in your heart,

the faster you'll learn.

Bintang.

Stop it, Pari!

Let go of me!

Pari!!

The dark force has gotten to you.

You must remember your happy thoughts.

Don't hold it against him.

The phases of the tide

affect the minds of Du Lum wizards.

When the tide ebbs,

the mind is prone to dark influences.

Lust becomes ungovernable.

So Du Lum is an art of the devil.

I'll give it up.

All knowledge is a double-edged sword.

You must learn to use it wisely.

Pari...

if you continue to learn from Black Ray,

you'll soon turn into another Black Raven,

or even Black Ray himself.

Why did you lock Black Ray up?

Black Ray committed so many heinous crimes,

I couldn't let him walk around freely.

What did he do?

Black Ray was a skilled fighter.

He was made the war minister by the palace,

but he secretly had an affair with one of the king's consorts.

One night Black Ray used Prince Bima's dagger

to kill the king.

That cleared the path

for Prince Rawai to become king.

I swear I'll kill him with his own dagger.

Hurry up!

Did you do it on purpose?

Bima, I don't want to hurt you.

So you're White Ray.

Even the Master fell under the dark force of Du Lum.

Ungu, I still owe you an apology about the other day.

You stole my first kiss anyway.

And you didn't even ask for my permission.

I just wanted to...

Don't worry. I'm all right now.

This is why I had to build the cave to lock myself up.

Everybody who practices Du Lum has his weakness.

It's a desire buried deep inside your soul.

If you can't control it, you'll fall into the dark side.

Every time I feel the dark force taking hold of me,

I use a Du Lum spell to squeeze myself

through a crack and imprison myself in the cave.

I'll come out only when I feel

my good senses have returned.

Pari, you leave me with no choice.

Tomorrow,

I'll start teaching you the art of white Du Lum.

Thank you, Master.

What's your excuse now?

If you kill me, you'll lose everything.

Let my sister go,

then I'll help you.

Move!

Hey!

I don't think

you're in a position to negotiate.

You know what will happen to your sister

if your cannon doesn't work properly?

Wait!

Let her go.

My cannon will be no match for

the Great Cannons built by Janis Bree anyway.

Take her away!

Him too!

I think we have to hurry up and find our master.

The art of Du Lum

is about uniting the force of men with that of fish.

Every living creature is born with great desires.

For fish, it is food.

For men... lust, power,

hatred, greed

and vengeance.

Black Raven Island has only one entrance,

a narrow channel hidden by walls of rocks.

I think we can turn this into our advantage.

If they have only one entrance, we can trap them.

Their fortress will become their own prison.

But first we must send someone

to rescue Lim Kium and his sister.

Prepare a special force.

We'll attack them as soon as the monsoon winds stop blowing.

Yes, Your Majesty.

If we work together,

we can easily conquer Langkasuka.

When do you plan to attack?

It will take some time to assemble

the mercenaries from Makassar.

We'll prepare our men during this monsoon season.

When the 10th month arrives we'll move to attack them.

I've been dreaming of those Langkasuka beauties for so long.

We Javanese

may be small in number,

but our fighters are very skilled.

I hope you'll cut us a fair deal.

Don't worry about that.

To the glory of the pirates!

To the glory of the pirates!

The two cannons I built

are dedicated to Langkasuka.

The kingdom of Bahadusa has been of great help to us,

so I built the best cannons there are as a gift

to Her Majesty the king's daughter

in order to defend her kingdom.

Remember, Lim Kium,

being able to show appreciation

is a very important thing.

Cannon A is designed

to have a great firing range...

while Cannon B's power

is more devastating.

They're both amazing, my master.

No, they're not.

Imagine what would happen

if you combined the strength of these two cannons.

Master!

When he completes the sixth level of Du Lum,

my mission is complete too.

If he wants to study further,

he has to do it himself.

I haven't seen the old man for days.

It's time for us to leave.

Our time on this island

has been so peaceful,

so many good memories.

I wish we could remain here forever.

Everyone must think I'm dead.

As long as I live...

you'll always be alive in my heart.

Ungu, let me take you home.

You're smiling.

I've never seen you smile before.

Lord Jaring has left for Pahang.

Good.

He'll convince the Prince of Pahang

to understand our situation.

I come to bid farewell.

I'll lead 29 men

to attack Black Raven Island tomorrow night.

May you have the best of luck.

Our kingdom relies on you.

Thank you, Your Majesty.

I'll defend Langkasuka until my last breath.

Lord Jarang.

Take care of yourself.

The cannon is finished.

What else will you invent to help them kill people?

Don't look at me like that.

I have no choice.

But I do.

I don't think Langkasuka

has the ability to build a cannon like this.

I agree.

And if they're building one,

our spy would already have reported to us.

Very well.

Goodbye, brother.

Go plant the explosives outside.

Let's move!

Go!

Go look!

My sister!

Master Kium.

Kium. We must hurry.

Hey!

Pari! Stop!

Pari! Stop!

Pari, I love you!

I love you.

Princess Ungu!

- Princess? - We'll talk later.

Let's get out of here.

Go look!

Shoot him!

We'll die here together!

Don't!

Pari, watch out!

Fire!

- Get down, Princess! - Pari!

Pari! Pari!

Pari!

Pari! Pari!

Pari.

Master.

Father.

My son.

I'll call you Rawai.

You're wounded.

Are you all right?

Just a scratch.

It's nowhere near my heart.

Our attack

has caused major harm to the enemy.

But we...

also lost many of our skilled warriors.

War is all about loss.

The pirates have installed powerful cannons on their ships.

We'll face another ruthless attack.

There are two more people

who sacrificed their lives for Langkasuka.

I won't let the deaths of Pari

and my sister

mean nothing.

We should move up the wedding

between Princess Ungu and the Prince of Pahang.

I agree.

We need Pahang's army.

We should send the princess to Pahang

as soon as Lord Jaring returns.

But Ungu...

What's the problem?

I'm ready for the wedding.

Let the cycle end at you,

and you'll understand the impermanence of life.

Hurry up!

Pahang must be busy preparing for the wedding.

He won't be able to send reinforcements.

I won't give him a second chance.

Tell our men to leave the island

and go meet our pirate friends at Purao Payang.

And tell them...

my father and I will bring a special gift to them.

Hurry up.

Father.

Set sail.

After the wedding,

Ungu will return with the Pahang Army.

Do you think they'll make it back in time?

I believe the two cannons we're building

will be able to hold off the enemy for a while.

But what I fear is...

What?

I fear that the pirates will try to retrieve

my master's Great Cannons from the sea.

We do not know for sure.

We shouldn't panic.

But we shouldn't underestimate them either.

I've figured out a strategy

to ward off their war fleet.

But I'll have to ask you to provide me

with a group of soldiers.

Father. Be careful.

My cannons...

will be as formidable as my master's Great Cannons.

The pirate fleet is now approaching the city walls.

Lord Jarang!

Their army far outnumbers ours.

We have to keep them at bay.

We can't let them land on shore.

Cannon staff ready!

Ready the cannons!

Pirates, prepare to go to shore!

Fire!

Double the strength.

Aim higher!

Fire!

Signal the Mahalalo fleet to start firing.

Fire!

Are Lim Kium's cannons ready?

Get a move on!

Together!

Watch out.

Be careful!

Fire back!

Hold your positions.

Don't retreat!

At your right!

Hurry up!

Faster!

Put the cannon into position!

Ready!

Fire!

Look at that!

We'll get them!

I'll leave this to you.

I have to prepare my new weapons.

Lim Kium is truly a genius inventor.

Keep firing.

Don't let them regroup.

- Put your weapon down! - Queen Hijau!

What's wrong with you?

Tuk Rahman!

Queen Hijau, tell your men to stop firing.

If they don't, you're dead.

So you're the traitor.

How could you?

I do it for my nephew Rawai.

I'll call you Rawai.

How's that?

Princess Biru,

put your sword down. Now!

Queen, tell your men to stop firing the cannons.

Do it now!

I said do it!

I'm ready to sacrifice myself for this land.

Kill me!

Hijau!

If you want to die so much, you'll get your wish.

Ungu,

Langkasuka depends on you now.

Move!

Kill them all!

- Fire! - Stop!

Soldiers!

So you're the traitor?

Lord Jarang!

Keep firing! Don't worry about me!

Fire!

The Great Cannons!

Soldiers, we have to move fast!

The Great Cannons!

Queen Hijau!

For Rawai, my nephew.

No!

- Sister! - Queen Hijau!

Don't worry about me.

Stop them.

Lord Jarang.

Soldiers, at your stations!

God save the queen!

Keep firing!

Winged warriors, come fly with me.

- Give me the gun. - Here it is.

Fire!

For Langkasuka.

Fire!

Pari. Pari!

Finally you've become a Du Lum master.

Father! Father!

Please forgive me.

I'm here to end it, not to harm anyone.

Let it all end with you.

And you'll understand the impermanence of life.

Long live the queen!

When you learn to let go of everything...

love, hatred, vengeance...

an empty mind will unite you

as one with the sea.
