Original subtitles

Behold the Battle Nexus, the ultimate arena,

where warriors from many dimensions

come to compete against each other.

( grunting )

I, too, spent my youth in such foolish pursuits.

I was known and feared throughout the multiverse...

( grunts )

...until I lost to a rat.

Now the rat and his brood have returned,

interrupting my schemes for power,

but offering opportunities for revenge.

Drako!

Now, while I plot to seize control of the Battle Nexus,

my pawn, the Daimyo's son,

has poisoned the one called Leonardo.

( crowd shouting )

The rat rots in the dungeon,

framed for attempting to assassinate the Daimyo.

( grunting )

And despite the heroic efforts of the samurai rabbit

and the turtle ninja,

the Daimyo will soon be dispatched

and the power of the Battle Nexus will be mine.

( cackles )

We must protect the Daimyo.

And if we can't?

Then we shall perish with honor.

Let's try and leave the whole perish bit out, okay?

( grunting )

Usagi, think fast!

( grunting )

Leo?

Whoa!

( grunting )

The Daimyo.

( crowd cheering )

Friends, warriors and noble creatures,

it is a sad office that I must perform.

The healers say my father, our revered Daimyo, will not live.

( crowd shouting )

But we must continue the Battle Nexus tournament.

It is what my father would have wanted.

It is with a heavy heart that I assume his place and his duties.

We have our final four combatants,

hoping to compete to become the Battle Nexus champion.

And so I say, in honor of my father,

let the Battle Nexus tournament proceed!

( crowd cheers )

Gyoji, I must attend to affairs of state.

Continue the contest.

Yes, young master.

Step through the portal.

Fate will pare you randomly.

Fight well and with honor, warriors.

Well, here goes nothing.

( grunting )

( growls )

My Lord, a moment.

All is going according to plan.

I think now would be an appropriate time

to fulfill your promise

and give me your father's war staff.

Patience Drako, patience.

The staff is in a safe place and I will give it to you

only when all is done

and I am officially declared Daimyo.

( growls )

My patience, young Lord, is at an end.

So what's it gonna be?

I already told you, I-- I don't know

where this Master Splinter is.

I guess there's no reason for me to keep

my hungry friend from eating you.

Ooh!

Go ahead, Traxi, dig in.

No--no, w--wait, don't eat me.

Your Master Splinter is being held in the palace dungeon.

Heh heh heh.

Stop, assassins!

( shouts )

( grunting )

( grunting )

Hyah!

Aah!

Oof!

Time to skewer the rabbit.

Glad you are feeling better Leonardo-san.

Maybe not better, but at least I'm breathing.

Good, now, let us finish these foes.

Donnie!

( grunting )

Incoming!

Hyah!

Well, the front door is out.

How good are Triceratons at climbing?

( crowd cheering )

( grunting )

Why do I get the feeling that I'm in too deep!

Let's just hope it's not six feet deep.

I wonder if it's too late to change my bets

and put it all on this guy?

Uh, look, you're obviously a marginally intelligent warrior...

I stand to rake in serious cash

if I can win this thing, uh...

I could cut you in for 20%...

( grunting ) Uh, 60-40?

50-50.

Tell you what, I'll cut you in 50-50,

top half and bottom half

or maybe right half and left half.

No need to be a jerk about it.

( grunting )

( crowd cheering )

Oh, no! No, no, no.

Wait a minute!

Hyah!

That's right, I am the greatest.

I came, I saw, I kicked butt.

You gotta be kidding me.

I have to fight the big, ugly, purple guy?

Yikes!

Come, it is time.

The final two contestants in the Battle Nexus tournament

are Kluh of dimension Levram

and Michelangelo of dimension third Earth.

( crowd cheering )

( grunts )

Okay, that was subtle.

( door opens )

Yo, Traximus, bring the curtain.

I got an idea.

( groaning )

( grunting )

Now, to fulfill my destiny.

What?

Aah, Drako, I knew you would betray me.

I simply wanted to see the look on your face

as you failed to achieve your plans.

And now you will pay for your treason with your life.

What? The war staff!

It fights me?

Ugh!

You always were an incompetent fool.

( grunting )

It's a shame, really.

You should've spent more time

learning how to use the war staff.

I on the other hand have spent years of my life

studying its ways and its immense power.

( screams )

( cackles )

I have come to question the captive.

By order of the new Daimyo, none shall pass.

Hey, watch it with those pig stickers, I don't want no trouble.

( grunting )

It's old shtick but it works.

Master Splinter!

Raphael, my son.

Allow me.

Thank you, noble Triceraton.

Master Splinter, what the shell

is going on around here? This place is crazy,

I will explain on the way, but now we must hurry.

We must get to the Daimyo and Leonardo.

Begin!

Get ready for pain, little turtle.

Lots and lots of pain.

( growls )

Has anybody every told you that purple looks good on you.

It says, rage.

I'm going to crush you, turtle boy.

( grunting )

Ah!

( roars )

So, still believe yourself destined to be Daimyo of the Battle Nexus?

( screaming )

Let me dissuade you of that notion once and for all.

( roars )

Drako, you fool,

that war staff is my birthright.

Hold the contest.

Battle Nexus rules clearly state-- whoa!

Any more rules you'd like to state?

You must be strong Daimyo.

There is an urgent matter which needs your attention.

Drako has returned?

The war staff, in Drako's hands.

It must not be.

The war staff focuses power from the heart.

If true evil uses it, there's no telling

what horrors it might unleash.

Come, we must stop him.

Drako! Stop!

What?

What is happening?

No! Drako!

With his evil heart, Drako has torn a rift between the worlds.

A multidimensional wound that will destroy all it touches.

( grunting )

The war staff, I must have it.

What? No!

No! My war staff!

It will be mine!

( shouting )

The staff!

Hyah!

Whoa! Whoa!

Whoa!

Turtles, grab on!

Here my friend, hurry!

Yes, I must close the rift immediately.

( grunts )

Hang on, I've got you.

You will not be rid of me so easily.

Ugh, you fool!

You'll kill us both!

Stop fighting. you're slipping.

Drako! Rot in the abyss where you belong.

( grunts )

You fool!

No!

( grunting )

My son, no!

Daimyo, you must act now.

Yes.

( shouting )

Oh!

Yo, ugly, do you think we're supposed to fight now?

Uh, yo?

Oops.

( crowd cheering )

Michelangelo of dimension third Earth,

I crown you Battle Nexus champion.

( crowd cheering )

( laughs )

I just can't believe I actually won.

That makes two of us.

I knew my son was rash and foolish,

but I mourn his passing.

Perhaps he is not completely lost.

The multiverse holds many mysteries.

There is always hope.

Perhaps.

But, come, gather your sons, I must let you go home.

It was an honor battling

beside you and your brothers, Leonardo.

I hope that someday our paths will cross again.

It is I who am honored, Usagi. You saved my life.

Farewell and good battle to you all.

- Farwell. - See ya.

- Later. - Ta-ta for now.

Farewell, my friend.

Live with honor.

We're home.

Wow, it's almost like it never happened.

Oh, it happened

and I have the trophy to prove it.

Check it out!

See what it says.

Battle Nexus champion, which is me,

the greatest warrior of the transdimensional multiverse.

Which is me.

You only won on a technicality.

Um, technically, I kicked your sorry butt

in one of the bouts, remember?

Ugh!

( grunting )

Yes, it is good to be home.

Prime leader, we have traced the transionic particle beam

from the Fugitoid's teleportation.

The final destination is the third planet from the sun.

Excellent.

Prepare for a full scale invasion.

We will crush the inhabitants of that world

and claim the Fugitoid for the glory

of the Triceraton Republic.
