You praised AUZA despite knowing they were up to all this crap?

-I’m giving credit where it’s due.

They have access to technology

that can turn brilliant ideas into a reality,

as well as the vast research funding needed to support them.

Putting aside their current scheme,

I believe that AUZA is an enterprise

that’s honestly doing humanity a huge favor.

-[ Sighs ] If you start going on

about some kind of Iron Ninja

or Captain Shinobi, I swear to God.

-Screw them! Goddamn company.

Why in the hell didn’t they let me in on this project?

-Well, as for our plan,

Higan and I will go around to the active power plants

and shut them down while simultaneously

stealing the energy supplies that we need to keep operating.

What will you two do? -Do you even need to ask?

We’re going to keep on investigating those scumbags,

but that means we’ll probably end up

revealing all you ninjas to the public.

-Whatever. -I’ll give you guys

full access to my computer.

-By the way, there’s one thing that’s bothering me.

-What’s that? -Nothing. Forget it.

-Why? Are you afraid? Come on, let’s hear it.

-Well, it’s just... I’ve been wondering, you know?

I can’t help it. I noticed you called Ducky "Higan."

So, are you two a thing now or what?

-[ Grunts ] -Aah! Dang it!

-That’s what you get for asking.

-Oh, man! Damn it! -[ Laughs ]

-Oh! Girl, you need to respect your elders!

-You brought that on yourself, partner.

-Dang.

-I don’t get it.

That big doofus let the power plant get destroyed

right in front of him, so why let him come back?

-Engaging Higan in combat without the Gusoku gear

would be foolish.

I trust in his abilities to handle the job.

He made the right call, so that should be enough.

-That’s besides the point! Everything is screwed up now!

You were the one who wanted to speed up the plan, remember?

Except now the members of the advisory committee

are on the verge of bowing out

because of your brainless ninjas.

Listen up.

At this moment, I’m in the middle of using this world,

or rather, this entire planet, as a sort of game.

I exert total control over people, nature,

and all living creatures as I change the world.

It’s the greatest simulation imaginable.

But if your people keep getting in my way, then we’re through.

-So then to you, this is just a game.

-Yeah, that’s right. A game that I only get to play.

-We ninjas have a duty.

That duty is to seek out the most vile scum on this planet,

such as yourself, and then terminate them at any cost.

-[ Gasps ] -Never forget

there is a greater cause than yourself.

-Is that supposed to be a threat?

Well, just remember, the next time

one of your people screws up,

I’m gonna make them commit seppuku!

-Imbecile does not know the difference

-The Izuna Circuit is the heart of the Gusoku gear.

It’s very sensitive and frail,

which means if you use it like that motorcycle of yours,

you’ll quickly put it into a bad mood.

-And what happens if I upset it?

-Then it will never smile for you again.

You have to be a gentleman. Treat it like it’s Mari.

-That won’t work. I made her angry all the time.

-You got to be kidding me.

So, anyway, that’s the quick rundown

of how to operate and maintain the Gusoku gear.

I’ll give you the manual to read,

but it’s better to just learn firsthand.

-Emma. -Yeah?

-This is my problem to deal with.

You’ve already done more than enough for me.

Please just stick with Mike and help him out for now.

When this is all over, you need to find a safe place to stay

and never tell anyone where you are.

-[ Sighs ]

God, I’m so tired of hearing shit like "it’s my problem"

or "I’m the one who has to take care of it."

Seriously, why is it that older guys

are always acting like they’re so cool?

-I’m too old to try and act like I’m so cool.

Like I told you before, in this business,

your partner’s as good as family.

-I have a duty to uphold...

so I’m going with you, Higan.

However, I’m also going to help

the two of you out before I leave.

I know that Jason guy seems like a weirdo,

but his skills are pretty solid.

It shouldn’t take long if both of us work together.

[ Door opens ] Oh.

-Did you just call me a weirdo?

[ Gong clangs ]

-Oh, nice. You know how to cook?

-I grabbed what was left in the stock room

and whipped something up.

Try not to make one of your stupid comments.

-What brought this on? -Let me explain it to you.

Throughout history, gangs, the Mafia, and the Yakuza,

have always shared meals together.

-[ Sighs ] -Hey, you care to explain

why my serving’s so damn small? -Isn’t that obvious?

It’s because you never contribute anything.

-Now, you -- you better watch...

In this business, your partner is as good as family.

-You have always been someone I consider part of my family.

-Hey, what’s on your apron? Is it kanji for jackass?

-Shut up! You’re the jackass! -Alright,

Mr. Secretary of Energy, what’s this pressing matter

you wanted to talk to me about? -I want to hear

what you have to say about the power plant explosion.

-It’s exactly as I explained before.

This was an act of sabotage committed

by someone who got wind of our operational test.

The FBI are hunting them down as we speak.

-Then I need to visit as an observer

so I can verify the facts. -That’s not possible.

I can’t risk our technology getting stolen.

I already sent you records of all our tests.

-I gather that you’ve more or less

forced the advisory committee

into accepting your bribes with some saber rattling.

But you know they can’t just ignore public opinion.

I let the trouble that you’ve been having in the city slide,

but this is different. -You damn people

are nothing but cowards. -Cowards?!

Listen, it’s our cooperation that has your dreams

on the verge of coming true. -No, I’m the one

who’s making your freaking dreams come true!

[ Sighs ]

-You seem to have lost your temper there.

-It’s one of my few flaws.

I’m pissed at myself and those political clowns.

So what’s Big D doing?

-He is currently at his barbershop

getting his daily fade.

-Get him on the line, please. -He requested this time off.

It’s on the schedule. -This is an emergency!

[ Cellphone ringing ]

-Shouldn’t you answer that?

-Nah, man, this is my time.

Besides, I already know what he wants me to do,

and I’ve done what needs to be done.

[ Beeping ]

Beauty is where I find my serenity.

There’s no point in living, or fighting,

when there’s no grace in it.

-Well, I hope your boss can understand that.

-Yeah. When pigs fly.

-I’m not able to get through to him.

-Screw that goddamn bucket head!

[ Clattering ]

[ Heels clacking ]

-I’m very sorry about this, sir.

Please allow me to make it up to you on his behalf.

-[ Sighs ]

Wait. I’m going to go out for a little bit.

-I’ll get ready immediately. -You can stay.

I’m looking forward to seeing how you’ll make it up to me...

I’m still reeling from the fact that she’s a ninja.

and I never saw one damn thing

that would make me think she’s one of you.

Hey, Ducky, do me a favor.

Keep Emma safe, you hear?

-Our target is a report stored on their main server

that contains operational data on the reactor.

It should include evidence of them

using newly developed weapons

to secretly intervene in foreign disputes,

as well as the name of whoever they report to.

-Who could that be? -One of this country’s

top brass. -That sounds juicy.

-AUZA’s main server

is hosted across a constellation of independent satellites.

-Hold on. I got fired while working on

developing that very system.

Now you’re saying it’s operational?

-Yeah, and we’re going to hack it.

-I’ll teach them for laying their grubby hands on my work.

Now that’s fresh.

Your skills are even better than they were yesterday.

being like courage for cowards.
