Note to self:

when Master Splinter tells you not to leave the lair,

don't leave the lair.

Also, do not, repeat, do not

follow Master Splinter

through an interdimensional portal

to a nexus between multiple worlds.

- Whoa! - Whoa!

But if for some dumb reason you have done all that,

whatever you do,

don't accidentally enter into the Battle Nexus tournament,

a competition of the multiverse's

most skilled and lethal warriors.

And finally, if all that does happen,

make sure you don't spend any time

in the Pavilion of the Past Champions alone.

Trust me on this one.

It may just cost you your life.

Warriors who seek to become Battle Nexus champion,

prepare yourselves.

Hey, guys, it is Traximus,

that gladiator from the Triceriton home worlds.

Imagine Traximus being here.

This place just gets wilder and wilder.

Where is Leonardo?

The tournament will start soon.

Do not worry, Splinter Sensei.

I am sure Leonardo will be along any moment now.

Sorry, Master Yoshi.

Uh-oh.

Okay, where did everybody go?

You fight without honor, assassin.

Hyah!

Are you all right, warrior?

Thanks for saving my shell.

You are welcome, kaba.

I am Leonardo, and I am in your debt.

I am Miyamoto Usagi,

a ronan and a competitor

in the Battle Nexus tournament.

I was passing by when I saw you set upon

by those dishonorable assassins.

Lucky for me.

Luck has very little to do with it.

It is about skill and control of your energies.

Your mind and your weapon

must be as one or you will certainly perish.

Yeah, I know.

My sensei is always telling me the same thing.

Any other advice?

Yes. Duck.

Hyah!

Who are these guys?

Huh?

They are gone. Vanished.

Again, thank you for your help samurai.

Do not thank me yet, warrior.

Fate may pit us against each other in the tournament.

I have to tell you, Usagi-son,

the way you fight, I'd rather not go up against you

if I can help it.

( laughs ) The feeling is mutual.

Master Leonardo, your swords have been repaired.

I trust you will find them worthy.

Thank you.

You two must hurry.

The next stage of the Battle Nexus tournament

is about to begin.

Good luck, Leonardo-son.

And to you, Samurai.

Ah, Gennosuke, I am surprised to see you here.

Mm, why is that?

I did not think you went in for contests of honor.

Honor! ( laughs )

No, I'm not in it for honor.

I'm in it for the money.

Just between you and me,

I've placed a huge wager on myself to win.

I could let you in on the action, if you want.

It's a sweet deal.

You could clean up.

No, thank you.

But good luck.

Or should I say good fortune with your wager.

You will never change, Gen-chan.

Why would I? You don't change perfection.

Yo, Leo! I thought you weren't going to show.

What took you, bro?

I ran into trouble in the Pavilion of Past Champions.

I got attacked.

Attacked?

Are you all right?

I'll survive.

This is terrible.

I will look into the matter at once.

( horn blows )

The time has come.

Be brave, my sons,

and more importantly, be careful.

( gong )

Let the contest begin.

Okay.

( laughs ) Looks like it's just you and me.

Warriors, first tier begin!

Aah!

Hey, buzzy, what say we call this a draw

and I'll spring for the other half of that haircut.

Where's your sense of humor?

( cheering )

Oh, shell.

What happened?

You have been defeated in the Great Tournament.

I don't believe it.

I'm the first turtle eliminated?

The guys won't ever let me live this down.

Champions, I commend you on your victories thus far.

And now, prepare yourselves.

The next round, tier two.

You have failed me.

Leonardo still lives.

Forgive us, young lord.

We will not fail you again.

Good, because next time,

the price for failure will be your lives.

The task ahead is very grave.

I can afford no further blunders.

Prepare yourselves and your brothers.

Now be gone.

Perhaps the destruction of Leonardo

was premature, my Lord.

Should you not first secure the throne?

You dare question me?

Do not forget your place, Councilor.

Yes, my Lord.

You know I'm only trying to serve you.

And as your Councilor, I must advise patience.

More patience?

I have suffered enough in the name of patience.

I have bowed before them.

I have begged their forgiveness

as my father wished.

But now my time has come.

I will take the throne from my father

and I will become the Supreme Daimyo of the Battle Nexus.

And I will make the Turtles and their rat master

pay for their insolence to me with their lives.

Tier two, begin!

Um, Master Splinter,

are you gonna kick my shell now?

Do you hear the crowd, my son?

( cheering )

Do I?

It's been pretty cool fighting like this,

out in the open, having everybody love us for it.

Yes. This year, it is your competition, not mine.

When my sons fight with honor,

they honor their master.

You must deliver a finishing blow

to end the match.

Master Splinter, I...I...

Thanks, Sensei.

Ah, Splinter-son,

I see the master of ninjitsu

lost to the father in you.

Yes, I suppose so.

It is just that if my sons can win,

I do not wish to stand in their way.

I'm kind of sad to have to be the one

to knock you out of the tournament, Traximus.

I think perhaps you're mistaken, Raphael.

I feel sorry to have to be the one

to knock you out of the tournament.

Stay down, little one, or you may get hurt.

Thanks for the advice, Trax,

but you better take it yourself!

Hyah!

It's just like you said, Usagi-son.

We have to fight each other.

Fate often has such a wry sense of humor.

Come. Let us fight as friends,

and may the best swordsman win.

You should be proud

to have raised such fine warriors and sons.

Yes, I am proud,

though they can be a little too willful at times.

If only fathers could make their sons understand

we're only trying to protect them

from their own inexperience.

Ah, I know exactly what you mean, old friend.

But tell me, there is something familiar

about this Samurai my son Leonardo faces.

He should look very familiar to you.

He is the same young Samurai in training

that came to your aid

when Drako ambushed you some years ago.

He has already a ronan at such a tender age,

but his sword arm is skilled far beyond his years.

Excuse me. I must attend to a small matter.

Will you join me later when this bout is over?

It would be my honor, Daimyo.

Hyah!

You're gonna have to be quicker than that, Dino-boy.

You have been a worthy opponent, Raphael.

This is a battle I won't soon forget.

Yeah, I guarantee you won't.

Hyah!

( cheering )

My Lord, I strongly advise against

this rash course of action.

Your counsel has been heard and overruled.

Now keep silent. I command it.

Yes, my Daimyo.

And so it is time for Leonardo

to suffer for his past effrontery.

( gasping )

Usagi, I...I...

- Leonardo! No! - No!

( crowd murmurs )
