Original subtitles

Once upon a time,

in the port of Sakai...

Ruson would be a pirate?

That's a lie?

And even if he were, though it's unlikely, he'd never do anything to bully the poor.

Of course. We can count on him.

Yes.

"Sukezaemon Ruson, a Sakai local

"It is evident that the above person is guilty of deceiving the government

"by fronting business as a shipping agency while in truth he sustained himself

"by attacking a number of ships as a pirate. Thus, he shall be executed by burning."

Sukezaemon Ruson

Shall we follow formality and open the top and read the crime to him?

No, no, we've read that to him already.

Plus, the locals will act up if we let them see his face.

I see. Then...

Set it on fire!

"Good work!" Sukezaemon Ruson

Ruson,

for now, congratulations!

Congratulations!

- Tenjiku. - Yes?

How much sinus drug did you let him sniff?

A mere 1,000-ryo case.

That dirty small-time official!

You can buy any man with money these days. Money talks, doesn't it?

So, what are we gonna do now?

Tenjiku, where's the chest?

It's right here

I'm gonna be a pirate!

Since I've been falsely accused of being a pirate, it may be fun to become one.

I'm bored of living in the small islands of Japan.

The southern ocean is what will fulfill my dreams!

Let's do it! We're coming with you!

RUSON-MARU

Is everyone alright? Don't get washed away!

Tenjiku! Did you secure the chest?

It's safe!

Watch out!

Ryujin!

Tenjiku!

Ryujin!

Boss, is this all that's left of us?

Let's hope everybody else swam safely to a shore somewhere.

What's gonna happen to us now?

Let's just row this boat for now.

Let's keep rowing!

Stop looking helpless and row!

What are you doing?

Water... Water!

What are you doing trying to drink salt water? Fool!

Stop it! Fool!

A ship!

It's coming this way. Boss...

The Black Pirate!

The Black Pirate?

He's the pirate that infests the entire southern ocean..

Just like a hungry shark, he shows no mercy.

Shit!

Kaishin!

Boss!

Ryujin!

Shit!

Shit!

Look what we got.

The king will be pleased!

It's hot!

What are you doing?

So it's hot? I'm glad.

You're having fun burning people? Are you crazy or what?

It's been five days since you got washed up here.

I've put this hot pipe on you many times

but you never uttered a sound.

1 was beginning to think you'd never wake up...

and then you go "hot!" for the first time today.

I'm glad.

Where am 1?

You kept saying "give me back my chest" in your dream.

What chest is that?

It's none of your business.

You kept saying, "1 want to be rich."

You're rather unimaginative, aren't you?

Who the hell are you?

The hermit of Kume was my ancestor. Haven't you heard of him?

No.

Oh, it's the man who fell to earth from the clouds when he saw a nude woman, isn't it?

That's right.

That's the weakness that runs in my family for generations.

A treasure what you've been given.

What?

I saved you and you're leaving without a word of gratitude?

Hey, you!

- How do 1 get to town? - This way and it's right there.

Thank you.

Don't touch me!

Well, what would I do if I couldn't overcome

a trivial difficulty like this by myself?

Don't look at me with such contempt.

I can't help it, it's the blood of my ancestor at work.

Your ancestor puts you through such difficulties.

There are different classes of hermits, you know.

When my ancestor fell from the clouds tempted by a woman...

he was demoted from the heaven hermit class to the earth hermit class.

Since then, the hermits of Kume family have

devoted their lives to being promoted back to the original heaven class.

Well, please go ahead.

Aren't you gonna follow me any more?

To make up for the mistake I've just made,

1 need to meditate for three days..

Good bye.

Good bye.

Help!

Help!

Wait!

1 said 1T was gonna treat you nicely!

Damn it...

Outta the way!

Help! Please help!

Outta the way!

Let go of me! Help!

Who the hell threw this at me?

Here's another.

Bastard... Wanna fight?

No, 1 don't.

Wait!

My boy! My boy!

You're pretty good.

1 must defend myself.

Alright, let's fight!

Can we postpone this?

What?

My stomach is empty and you, sake is making you totter.

Al right. 1 like you.

My name is Slim. Yours?

Sukezaemon Ruson.

Sukeza? Are you Japanese?

Something like that.

Why don't you work with me?

To be a thief or a bandit?

Don't be stupid. I'm a guard of the king of this country.

A guard of the king?

1 decline.

1 see you aren't an ambitious type.

1 am ambitious, more than anyone else. That's why 1 decline.

What's going on with the women?

- It's taxes. - Taxes?

Those who can't pay have to offer their daughters.

- What happens to the women? - I don't know. None ever returned.

No one can argue with the king.

If you change your mind, call me.

You're capable so I'll hook you up. We'll hold off our fight until then.

See yal

Who governs this territory?

King Rasetsu. A tyrant with a heart of coal.

A tyrant?

'Cause they say he makes all those women they take his mistresses

and kill them when he's done with them.

And the towns people don't do anything about it?

His daughter is coming.

Very pretty for the daughter of a tyrant, isn't she?

- What's her name? - Princess Yaya.

Princess Yaya?

Don't even think about it.

She's about to get married to a man from the country of Ming.

Humph! Eat-and-runner!

Sir!

Hey, little boy, do you know how to get to the castle?

This way!

Father!

1 waited for you to get here.

1 want you to pay for your meal.

I'm on to you.

You spread your web in the town bar, then ambush whoever look like they're loaded.

Hey, why don't you join our company? You'd never starve.

Never!

How can you sate yourselves robbing towns folks who are oppressed by the king of the castle.

Bastard, watch your mouth!

Shut up!

If you have to rob, rob the king!

I'm infuriated with anyone who abuses their authority

but nothing pisses me off more than petty thieves like you!

- Bastard! - Fight!

So, are you gonna take on the king by yourself?

- I am planning to do it. - By yourself?

What's so funny!?

Just like a guy who eats 20 bowls, you talk big.

For your own sake, team up with me.

Then 1 guess T will.

Really?

I'll see if I can do it alone. So see yal

Damn you! Don't forget this!

What about money for your meal?

You skipper!

That must be it.

The Princess goes out a lot lately

so that she can hear the ill rumors about the king.

The king is her father, so she's naturally concerned.

No way she'd believe those rumors are true.

You have a point.

So there must be another man hiding behind the king

and doing bad things, she says.

And?

Looks like she has an idea

who it is..

Is that so?

Then I'd like to hear who it is.

No!

Sir Chancellor,

1 know 1 was picked by you from among the slaves.

What about it?

But it's not you who I like.

It's alright, isn't it, 'cause I like you.

It's your evil heart I like.

It thrills me so it makes my whole body shiver

to watch how your evil ambitions grow.

1 know.

I won't let you down.

You keep only the deaf and dumb

in your quarters so thaty your secrets won't get out.

That's enough!

It's the Captain!

You know,

1 suspect that you want to marry the princess.

I'm having fun watching what's going to happen.

Sobe, it's un-lady-like. Are you jealous?

- Sir! - What is it?

A man who calls himself Sukeza is here wishing to see the Princess.

The Princess? Is it a prince from the country of Ming?

No. Looks like he's Japanese.

I see.

If you're not gonna let me see Princess Yaya, let me show you my pass.

How about it?

It smells good.. Not like your sweaty ones!

It belongs to Princess Yaya!

Look! It's got the castle's emblem, too!

Refuse him.

But he's persistent, saying the Princess knows him.

- Where is he? - In the yard.

Where did you find that?

Find that? You're kidding!

The Princess handed it to me in person, as a pass.

Hey, so you're here!

What do you say? Doesn't this look good on me?

Clothes makes a man, they say!

Do you know him, Slim?

1 promised to find work for him.

Sir, he's able and would make a good hire.

Then let me see how able you are.

Are you saying this isn't good enough?

You need another pass for me, too.

Pick your weapon. A sword or a staff? Or a bow and arrows?

Alright. Start with the bow.

What's the target?

Well, well, Princess! Good to meet you again.

Come to your room right now? Right now?

Yes, at your service.

Hey, the Princess wants me.

Let him in!

Forgive my rudeness yesterday.

What's your business with me?

Princess, where's the necklace you wore yesterday?

Do you know the necklace?

Yes.

1 was wailing to meet someone to tell me that. Come.

That's why I went downtown wearing it.

Now, tell me please, what on earth is that item about?

There's a lot more.

You might recognize them.

What do you want, Chancellor?

Something happened that 1 need to inform you of at once.

Leave us!

He can stay. Tell me.

Then 1 shall proceed.

We just received news that the ship from the country of Ming carrying the dowry for you

had been sinked by the Black Pirate in the Battle Channel last night.

The Black Pirate?

Since we're not receiving the dowry items, 1 guess we'll postpone the date of wedding.

The Princess seems tired. Come.

Now that you've seen the Princess, you have no more business here. Leave.

- Can you let me go like that? - What?

That's right.

Letting him go may create problems later.

That's right.

Alright, I'm hiring to work with the soldiers.

Take him.

Oh, let me show him.

This way.

You waved at me out there, didn't you?

Yeah, that was a mistake.

What, a mistake?

Yeah, 1 thought you were the princess. Forget it.

Don't let anyone near until 1 tell you.

Old witch...

Here you are!

Here, it's ready.

A couple doses of this and the king will die.

He'll die peacefully.

Then, you'll be the king.

You'd better use a faster way.

But this way of proceeding is more like you.

If I killed the king, I'd be the one to be known as the infamous old tyrant.

1 need the cover.

That may be so,

but 1 know your other scheme.

Your scheme is

to make the king weaker and

to make the princess yours

in exchange for his life, isn't it?

You got it right.

But there's a problem!

- A probleme? - 1 need your help.

You're right, there's a problem.

As I suspected. Is it the Japanese named Sukeza?

We'll see.

Who the hell is that man?

He's the problem.

This man, the problem?

Not a big one.

He's someone who'll side with justice

so he won't be able to overcome our evil.

Still, a problem is a problem.

Be on guard.

Being lazy again? You'll remain a mere soldier if you stay like that.

You won't be able to become a sergeant like me.

Who made you sergeant?

Sir Chancellor, of course.

- Not the king? - The king?

Where on earth is the king?

Come to think of it, I've never seen him.

He's probably drowned with wine and women day in day out,

doing whatever he pleases.

What a lucky guy!

Leave that to me.

I'll strike a deal with her. Guard the door so that no one comes in while I'm at it.

Got it! Ask her to bring another one for me.

Come in here.

Not yet!

My type is a round face, a plump one.

- Got it, trust me. - Like this!

- Go and keep watch! - All right!

1 have something 1 wanna ask you.

Don't worry.

Have a seat.

Where are the women taken from the town like you?

They're not here at the castle.

I'm the only one they took here from the cave.

- From the cave? - Yes.

1 don't know. 1 was blindfolded.

And the princess?

She's visiting the king.

Have you ever seen the king?

No.

Something's not right.

Yes. It seems Princess Yaya is greatly troubled by something.

How do you know?

I'm taking care of Princess Yaya's personal needs.

I see.

What do you say, can you sneak into her room?

Hey! Are you done yet?

The Princess' room, you know...

- Leave the door unlocked. - But...

What are you doing?

My vital spot strike worked at last. Big men are slow to feel it!

Sukeza!

No need to worry. He'll wake up in no time.

1 was waiting for you.

Does this look familiar to you? And this?

Looks like this one's a bigger obstacle than the hermit.

What can a man like this possibly do?

We'll see eventually.

They aren't just familiar to me but were stolen from me by the Black Pirate.

Along with my chest full of gold, silver and other treasures.

The Black Pirate?

If you found these in this castle,

it means the Black Pirate is here. Am 1 correct?

Yes, you are.

So you admit it.

Then, the old tyrant takes away women from the town in place of taxes

and does whatever he pleases.

Or the king is the Black Pirate..

Will you admit this, too?

What a cruel thing to say.

My father's been ill on the verge of death.

If the Black Pirate or that tyrant lives here, it isn't my father.

Then, who is it?

1 know who it is.

I've been struggling to find evidence all along until I met you.

Princess, tell me about it in detail.

Please, Sukeza, I will tell you so help me! Please, Sukeza!

Capture him!

Are you willing to do anything to get promoted?

Shut up!

Sukeza!

Sukeza!

Wimps!

Everybody step back!

What a bunch of wimps struggling

with a little man like him!

Oh, there's a nice girl!

You don't need to be so scared.

Come here.

Come to Granny.

Come!

Are you gonna get in the way?

I'll show you now what happens

to those who get in my way!.

After them!

What are you waiting for? Catch them!

Wait, Sukeza!

This one. Get rid of him!

Hey, they'll take you away! Get up!

Get rid of him!

Come!

Bastard!

Dreamy boss,

looks like you've been side-tracking quite a bit.

What, you too? A hermit can get caught, too, 1 see.

Nah, 1 came by my own will.

'Cause 1 was worried about you, Sukeza.

Don't look around!

Where are you?

I'm right next to you.

You turned into a fly?

That's right. This is the only trick I've mastered as of yet.

Pathetic trick, isn't it?

Sukeza, you said your dream was to become rich

and have status, didn't you?

What about it?

Pourguoi ne fais-tu que des choses gui ne te rapportent rien ?

Then how come you keep getting into things that won't pay you a penny?

Why don't you think more about how to make money instead of helping others?

Money isn't important right now!

Oh, so you talk differently now.

But to tell you the truth,

that's what I like about you.

Ah, but it's too late now.

Why?

Haven't you heard?

No one's ever gotten out of here alive. You saw the two men just now.

When you can't work any more, they bury you alive in a grave.

Can't you cut this chain off?

If I could... Hold on, I'll do some research.

Princess, Milord asks you to come.

1 don't want to.

It's an order! Come!

Leave me.

What if 1 said no?

Now, Princess, over here please.

I requested your presence for a reason.

Unfortunately, the king's reputation is getting worse.

We might even invite a riot unless the government begins to rule the locals with mercy.

Therefore, it's been decided I'll be in charge

of matters regarding this country starting today.

Here's the king's signature.

With the condition my father's in, 1 cannot help but to think he was forced to sign it.

1 won't acknowledge it!

What?

How disrespectful!

What happened to Sukeza?

Sukeza? You're concerned about him, aren't you?

Now, what are you gonna do?

If you're a real villain...

Take her right here right now! Do it!

C'mon, keep dancing!

Something incredible happened to me.

What?

Well,

I was right on top of a girl!

Good thing you weren't in the clouds.

1 blame the blood of my ancestor.

Did you find a way to cut this chain off?

Tm sorry. 1 could barely get here.

Then, I guess we'll let Princess Yaya fall into Chancellor's hands.

1 know it's too much to ask of a fly for help.

Don't think so lightly of a fly.

Alright, let me try another trick.

I'm not too confident with this one,

but it'll probably work, I think.

Thank you.

Now, come with me.

Why did you save me?

'Cause 1 wanna make that Chancellor look much more evil.

If you're freed and become his enemy,

he won't have time for the Princess

He'll think up many more schemes and become more evil.

That's what I want to see!

Can't figure out women...

Now, quick!

Well, well, you have such good luck!

Real good luck.

You know what happens to traitors, don't you?

You know it, don't you?

I'm not a traitor.

1 want to see the Chancellor become more evil,.

No matter what you say, you betrayed him.

You went crazy with jealousy and you betrayed him!

That's not true! That's not true, 1...

Once the Chancellor gets the Princess,

you'll be useless anyway.

When the time comes, as he asked me to,

T will kill you!

Over here! I'm over here! Over here!

Quick!

Don't just stare, quick, do something!

You're a handful, hermit!

Sorry, sorry.

Just hearing a woman's voice gets me like this. What a drag!

That was that woman's voice. I'll go and see, so you go on ahead.

No, let me go.

You've got lots of work to do to save the Princess.

Are you sure?

Yeah, it's not like there are spider webs everywhere.

Oh, excuse me...

Look at my eyes!

Don't treat me like a commoner.

I'm still a hermit of a sort.

I won't let you turn me into stone.

Ouch!

I'm counting on you.

An old dog's only trick.

Too bad for you.

The fly you chased wasn't me.

It was the fly my nostril hair turned into.

Don't move around so much!

Are you still gonna say it's an old dog's only trick?

Another bowl!

Comin' up!

Damn, how many stomachs has he got?

1 hope we'll get some food.

This is tomorrow's supply already.

Then what are we supposed to do?

Can I get another bowl already?

Yep! Comin' right up!

Hey, are you gonna be alright?

Don't talk to me when I'm eating. It makes it hard to swallow.

Here, for you.

It'll be fine after.

Good.

I'm kinda worried.

Don't be. My stomach can store food away.

It's not what I'm talking about.

Are you really gonna work with us?

Yeah, 1 am. We'll raid the castle together.

Well, that guy ate too much food and went looney.

He says we're gonna raid the castle together.

You said the king of the castle was a tyrant, right?

But you were totally wrong. There's this other bastard wolf instead.

But what the hell are you after?

We'll do them in and save the Princess.

Yeah, right.

1 hope you haven't fallen for her, of all things??

Idiot!

Chancellor, I wanna ask you something.

Where did you get this from?

1 don't remember.

This gift you gave me is something the Japanese man Sukeza...

claims to have been stolen from him by the Black Pirate!

The Black Pirate?

He's also the one who robbed my wedding gifts.

- Sir! - What is it?

1 received news that the prince from the country of Ming has departed from their port.

So the bastard wolf honing his fangs to grab hold of both...

the country and the princess is the Chancellor.

I'd settle for one or the other if I were him.

The country and the princess... What a kickback!

You, too, take kickbacks from the helpless, don't you?

You're just like grandsons of the bastard wolf.

What?

Tell us that again!

Grandsons of the bastard wolf!!

Got it?

Got it.

What do you say?

If you don't wanna be called grandsons of the bastard wolf, will you lend me a hand?

Or are you saying you can attack the poor but can't fight against the men at the castle?

You small time bandits!

She's asking you to come.

Isn't that the bastard wolf over there?

Where are you going?

I'm gonna follow them. Stay here!

How dare you leave me behind.

You're fast. How did you get here?

It's like my own backyard around here.

Do you want to help me or do you want ot show your pride as a bandit?

That's one reason.

And there's another. 1 came to keep an eye on you.

Keep an eye on me?

Let me ask you again, you haven't fallen for Princess Yaya, have you?

That's stupid. The Princess already has a husband-to-be.

Then this job has nothing to do with love, I see.

Love gets in the way of my dream!

Is the information about the prince from Ming reliable?

Has any information from the

Black Pirate ever been wrong?

You will keep the promise you made me, won't you?

Of course. I'll be your matchmaker when that time comes.

All right, I understand.

Let's hear your point of view as the chief of water transport.

There'll be a fog tonight.

The prince's ship in the fog will be like a blind man.

It can't get any easier to attack them.

All right. Be sure you kill the Ming prince.

Rob and kill.

That's the motto of the Black Pirate..

Prepare to depart!

Shit! Evil, both of them!

Shall we take care of it?

They're coming!

Wait, those three are gone.

Gone?

Damn it!

As 1 suspected!

So the Chancellor is the boss of the Black Pirate.

What are those?

This is the official emblem of the country of Ming.

Prince, it's too dangerous to keep the ship going in this fog.

Once again, an old man's habit of being extra careful when there's no apparent danger!

I've lived this long because I've been careful where there's no apparent danger.

Rest assured.

1 have someone waiting for me there.

Keep watch.

Blow the fog horn.

What happened?

The Black Pirate...

Listen! It's the Black Pirate!

Don't panic!

Turn the wheel! Turn the wheel...

No!

Hold on, old man!

The princess is mine now.

Where did you find this?

There was a ship wreck in the fog last night.

And we found this among the things that got washed up this morning.

Unmistakably, it belongs to the Ming prince.

1 sent some men out to search for survivors but the ocean was rough and

we didn't find a single soul that survived.

I'm terribly sorry.

Princess,

the best thing left for us to do now,

is for you and 1 to get married.

For the sake of the country,

yourself and your father, too.

If you agree to marry me,

I'll promise to save

your father's life.

Is he alright?

He's still young.

Anyway, aren't you regretting you got mixed in

and saved the Ming prince?

What do you mean?

It's alright if you don't get it.

- How are we gonna save the princess? - I'm figuring it out now.

It's not that easy to raid the castle, you know.

How was it?

The prince's ship is sheltered beyond the cape.

1 told them not to move until we give them the order.

How many soldiers survived?

Just about 15, I think.

Well, it didn't work at all!

We got stopped at about 100 meters away from the castle and they wouldn't let us near them.

They won't let a creepy woman like you pass!

That's right, dear! 1 should have been the woman.

Where's Princess Yaya?

How come you're not taking me to her?

We're thinking of a way to take you there.

- Hurry up! - Don't be so selfish, you jerk!

Sir, the young man's been spoiled

but he's got a good heart.

When Brother Tenjiku and 1 got washed up unconscious, he saved us.

He treated our wounds and took care of everything for us.

So you owe him your lives, do you?

Princess Yaya!

Princess Yaya!

1 understand how he feels.

1 have an idea!

What's with the falcon?

- Not a falcon. A kite! - A kite?

Princess, the king is resting peacefully as you see.

The witch prayers will save him.

Right, Granny?

When he comes out of this sleep,

the poison will have left his body.

Is father's health truly fine now?

Then, why do we have to keep him in such a dirty place for so long?

Everything is done according

to the Chancellor's orders.

Princess, 1 kept my promise.

Now please keep yours, too.

We'll have the ceremony at midnight tonight.

Tonight?

Let me at least greet my father when he's awake.

Captain, get her prepared at once..

Please.

Princess! Please come!

Kill the king after the wedding.

But, it won't happen like that.

Yeah, that was close.

This should turn his health around.

Old witch!

Be quiet already, will you?

Is this gonna work?

It will!

More importantly, captain, dash to attack when you see the signal, okay?

All right. And the signal?

I've got it right here.

Are you ready?

Pull the rope!

Pull!

Yeah, it's flying!

Mother...

Ah, I wonder if Brother Sukeza took a leak before leaving?

It looks good! It's going toward the castle.

Yo! How's the view up there?

Stop it! You don't know how it feels.

Wait!

Sir, time to proceed to the hall.

And the princess?

Yes, women take longer to get ready, you know. But not before long.

- What's the matter? - It's Sukeza.

- What? - Outside the window.

Everybody, wait outside for a while.

- But the Chancellor ordered... - Step back!

I'm going to say prayers to my late Mother for the last time. Leave and wait outside!

Well.

Sukeza!

Stop it. Someone may get mad at me.

It's alright now. But what's this costume about?

The Princess is going to get married to the Chancellor tonight.

If this saves my father's life,

and now that the Prince from Ming is dead...

The Prince's alive.

He's waiting for my signal outside the castle.

Really?

Are you happy?

Does it make you so happy?

I see.

Don't worry and don't let the Chancellor notice anything different.

See you in a bit.

Sukeza...

This is my father's sword.

The king's sword... Thank you.

Princess! Are you ready yet?

It's madness to wait for the drawbridge to be lowered.

Boss orders.

We could swim.

Then you go and cross it!

- What about you? - Me, T'll wait.

Are we really gonna wait until the drawbridge is lowered?

Moron! Don't make a mistake! It's me!

It's me.

Once I learn a new trick, I feel like using it all the time.

She's still in here.

So, what are we gonna do?

Get the gate open and shoot up a signal.

All right, sounds like fun! Let me shoot up the signal.

Then please do. I'll wave my arm to signal you.

Like this, 1 see.

Are you impressed?

Oh well, he's gone already.

Oh, this must be it.

Where's the witch?

Well...

We need a witness. Bring her in right away.

Sukeza! I won't let you go this time.

Slim, let me go just this one time.

- Shut up! - What?

An enemy of the Chancellor is my enemy!

- What are you gonna do? - I'll do my job and get promoted.

Stop!

Slim!

Sukeza...

1 liked you.

Oh, he signaled me. All right...

Go!

Attack!

The enemy! The enemy's here!

It's Sukeza! The Ming Prince is here, too!

Don't panic!

Get them all killed with the usual trick.

Retreat!

Not yet! Wait! Not yet!

Step back! Take shelter!

I'm going.

Put out those flames.

Fuckers!

Where's the Princess?

The witch is back and went into her room!

Now that I know she won't be mine...

I'll leave her to you, witch.

The Ming Prince won't be happy with the Princess turned into stone!

Be a good girl and look into my eyes.

Stop!

Princess!

Be patient. I must turn her to stone first.

Wait! Don't look into her eyes!

Princess!

Not in the eyes!

Now look into my eyes!

Good.

Just a little more, now.

Princess!

Witch...

Princess!

Hey! Get the Princess!

Wait!

Lock"em up! Burn them to death along with the princess and the King!

- Wait, where's the Chancellor? - 1 don't know!

- Where's the Chancellor? - I'm looking for him!

Where's the Chancellor?

- Where's the Chancellor? - Hold it!

I'm the Japanese you stole the chest from and then dropped into the ocean.

A partner of the Ming prince? Get ready!

1 beg you.

Let me see the Princess just once.

The Princess?

The Chancellor fooled me.

He promised to give me the princess

once he'd take over the castle

That was the only thing I was looking forward to...

The Black Pirate...

The Princess is mine.

We've got rid of one nuisance now.

I'll get noticed if you follow me!

Sukeza!

Oh, good timing. 1 wanna ask you a favor.

Will you release the prisoners in the cellar?

All right. And there's something.

The one you're looking for...

I'm fine now.

I've finally managed to resist women!

Hurry now! Hurry!

Wait!

Don't stand back!

Open!

Hurry!

"Thansk for everything" Sukezaemon Ruson

Don't touch me!

Where's Sukeza?

Where's Sukeza in such a happy day?

No one saw him since this morning.

Everybody is looking for him, so please be patient a little longer.

Fare-dodger!

Fare-dodger!

They would have given you status and money if you had stayed.

I'm looking for something else.

So, where to now?

Well, T don't know.
