Enemy craft detected ahead of us too.
Damn it!
What do we do now, Mister?
Mister?
Mister!
To the right! Right!
You sure that's the right gate?
Just get the heck in there!
Fire!

One, two, three...
Katana!
This is bad, man.
We're friggin out of anesthetics.
What did you say?
If we don't get these bullets out of him quick, he's screwed!
Do it...
Huh?
Do it without the anesthetic.
But...
Look, just do it.
Okay...
Here goes, Boss.
Episode 7 Marciano, the Traitor
So it's over then.
It's not over.
Isn't it?
I've got the calculation results.
Going from this point...
Right about the time we touch down on Graceland...
It goes ka-boom.
We can't go to Graceland;
the man with the plan is down and out;
we've got our hands tied behind our backs and no way to turn.
Well, Son, to put it plainly, that means it's all over.
You almost sound happy about it.
Aw, I wouldn't say that.
If this is how it's gonna be,
we'll just have to go back to Big Pink, and get to Graceland from there.
The exit gate probably won't be usable after that explosion earlier,
but the entrance side hasn't been destroyed, now has it?
You don't learn, do you?
Big Pink must be strengthening its defenses right about now.
What the heck are we going to accomplish by going back there?
Shut the hell up!
We're moths about to fly right into the flame!
Stop your damn bitching!
Let's go, Katana!
Right!
Gate 5 has been severely damaged.
Give me a damage report. Gate 5 has been severely damaged.
Give me a damage report.
System output percentage currently at 64%.
Notify all space gate stations of cruise restrictions.
It looks like it will be a while before we can use this gate to go after Mister.
I wonder if Mister and his gang made it through the gate all right?
I'm confirming their progress now.
It sounds like the damage to that gate is pretty bad though.
Yes. Yes.
One mid-sized craft of unknown affiliation took off.
Yes.
Thank you very much.
Angelica!
The Coyote survived.
Pretty Red return gate's warp space stream reversal operation complete!
We can launch a direct attack on Pretty Red!
Energy charge at 99.9% output.
We can fire at full power.
Very well.
Fire!
Presently, all flights to and from Pretty Red have been halted.
I repeat: Presently, all flights to and from Pretty Red
All right. I repeat: Presently, all flights to and from Pretty Red
We'll go in just like this and blow right past the administration bureau, gate and everything! I repeat: Presently, all flights to and from Pretty Red
We'll go in just like this and blow right past the administration bureau, gate and everything! have been halted.
We'll go in just like this and blow right past the administration bureau, gate and everything! I repeat: Presently, all flights...
It's all you, man. I repeat: Presently, all flights...
Mister will now no longer be able to return.
This ship will now go through the Graceland gate and on to Graceland!
Instruct Big Pink's control tower to open the gate.
Once all the soldiers are rounded up,
we will head toward the Graceland gate and depart!
What the hell is this?!
Marciano's work.
Only that woman would do something this overboard.
That woman again?!
Goddamnit!
So it's over at last.
Oh, I'm sorry. Have I offended you?
Son of a bitch...
Why don't you just give in and admit that it's over?
Shut the hell up. I'm telling you it ain't over, pal.
What's the matter?
Looks like you're having some fun there.
Mister?!
Let me in on this too.
You sure you're all right?
Yeah!
Aren't you better off resting?
Even if you push yourself, by the time we make it to Graceland,
it sounds like the photonic bomb will have reduced the treasure to space dust.
Is that right?
Yeah...
I calculated that if we can't use a space gate,
then we'll reach Graceland right around the moment that they drop the photonic bomb on it.
So there you go.
Well, you just give up now and go rest and recover as much as you like.
Why don't I...
What are you talking about?
This game's just getting started.
Mister!
You got some kinda plan?
My plan?
I don't have a plan.
But that doesn't mean our odds have dropped to zero.
For one thing, it's still possible the war could end,
or that the bomb could be screwed up somehow and not explode,
or that its convoy could end up arriving later than planned.
But you might as well pray to God for any of that to happen!
Not at all.
Before Bruce cracked Gigabanks,
it's not like he started off with any proof that it could be done.
You gotta start by giving it a shot.
That's what he must have done.
That's the kind of guy Bruce was.
We've got a big problem to deal with, that's for sure,
but we've also got a lot of things going for us that Bruce didn't.
Bruce had to start out by researching a bunch of things,
but we were able to see the results through his eyes.
On the other hand, we have the burden of a time limit.
Bruce couldn't afford to let anyone else find out about his plan,
but we don't have that kind of restraint.
On the other hand, we do have the likes of Marciano to deal with.
And we've got an ally too.
You really are an optimist, Boss.
Hey, you're probably thinking we'll figure something out too. Right?
It's just I wouldn't call it the same thing in your case.
Optimistic is one thing, but...
Happy-go-lucky!
There you go.
Gates 5 and 2 have sustained severe damage!
Give me a damage report on each of the affected areas.
What should we do, Angelica?
Are you all right?
You are, aren't you?
Angelica?
Let's go to Graceland.
As long as whatever Mister is after is on Graceland,
I'm sure he'll come.
It's Mister we're talking about, so I'm certain.
The old guy can sure take a lot of abuse.
That's the truth.
All right then, shall we be off again?
I dunno how this is going to turn out, but...
Look out, Graceland, here we come!
Move your fingers one by one, starting with your index finger.
Yes, sir.
Looks good.
Okay then, why don't we try a little typing test?
Now type what you see here.
Does anything feel off?
No, nothing.
Very good, very good indeed.
Say, Master Nilson?
What is it?
I ruined those clothes you gave me in our last battle.
Me too. I'm sorry.
Is that all?
It's no trouble at all.
It means I'll have the pleasure of giving you gifts once again.
When this is all over, let's all go shopping again.
Yes, sir.
Bruce, eh?
Yeah...
How did the maintenance on my daughters go?
Without a hitch.
Ah, that's good.
Bruce's legacy does not strike me as something you will easily obtain.
Small wonder that he was known as the Pirate King.
He was a fool of a man.
Even if you go to the trouble of stealing a fortune,
dying renders it all meaningless.
I believe you're the one who did it.
Do you regret it?
Regret? How absurd!
Killing him left things unsettled.
That's all.
And that is why I am going to Graceland.
Unsettled? With whom did you have a score to settle?
Was it with Bruce? Or do you mean settling matters with yourself?
It seems we've arrived.
It's about time I went up to the bridge.
She should be more honest with herself.
A number of craft sighted in the vicinity of the Graceland gate.
Distance, 2,000.
One battleship-class vessel, twelve cruiser-class vessels.
Crosschecking the battleship class vessel...
It's an El Dorado-class.
I believe it is one of Hunter's ships.
Hunter?
Is it a Guild fleet?
We have an incoming call from Hunter Bennet.
Shall I put it through?
What seems to be the problem?
Mother, we are receiving a call from Hunter Bennet.
How shall I proceed?
What? Hunter Bennet?
Is the Guild's foremost execution squad making their appearance?
Hunter's fleet appears to be lying in ambush outside the gate.
April...
Yes?
We now have one more diversion to enjoy, wouldn't you say?
Yes.
It has been quite some time, Madame.
Quite some time, Hunter.
My, you look well.
Thank you very much.
I am delighted that you seem as ostentatious as ever in your pursuits.
I was quite taken aback when I heard of the incident on Big Pink between you and the blasted Coyotes.
Oh, were you?
I trust that you, Madame, wise as you are, will be able to deduce why I am here.
My fleet has been given orders to capture you or to dispose of you if capture is not possible.
However, I see no reason for fellow Guild members to fight each other.
Fellow Guild members...
What would you say to returning with me and facing a Guild tribunal?
You no doubt know the fate of those who fly the flag of rebellion against the Guild, don't you, Madame?
You've certainly climbed through the ranks, haven't you?
Eh?
Ah, yes, I've been fortunate.
Is your wife doing well?
Uh, yes.
I hear you had a child just last year.
Yes...
Are you sure about this?
Huh?
My soldiers may be paying your home a visit right about now.
Very well.
Then that is your answer, Madame?
Everyone, this is Marciano.
This ship shall now break through the enemy fleet spread out ahead,
and continue on toward Graceland.
We of the Criminal Guild have come here to exist as a true "guild."
We must not become like the current Guild,
which has declined so far that it now resembles little more than a corporation.
The spirit of the Guild lives on only in us of the Criminal Guild.
Let us teach those who have sat so comfortably under the auspices of the Guild
what true power is!
They say it's Hunter!
Oh, my, it really has been so long.
Is it typical to move an entire fleet against a single target?
Three small-sized craft appear to have launched from Marciano's vessel.
Send out all Guild Skies.
All ships maintain formation and advance at low speed.
I truly appreciate your ever youthful attitude.
However, striking out against a great fleet such as this with but a single ship is beyond recklessness.
My word...
I actually pity you.
Well, I guess I'll go first.
No fair!
We've finally made it to the Graceland gate.
This is just the start.
You're so tough, Angelica.
And I'm even six years younger than you!
I mean, look at how glossy my skin is and all!
I guess it's the obsession with Mister that makes all the difference, huh?
The battle zone is expanding.
Prepare to sustain damage from debris.
I'm in charge here. The name is Ted Roy.
I'm Inspector Angelica Burns.
I apologize for interrupting at such an inopportune time.
I've received notification from the Federal Offices
that you are in pursuit of Mister.
Yes.
Do you truly intend to go to Graceland?
Yes.
I see...
We shall return your ship,
but with circumstances as they are, I must ask that you pilot it on your own.
I understand.
That's eight.
Eight for me too!
You're not winning this one!
What are Guild ships doing fighting each other here?!
Five cruisers sunk, three have sustained serious damage.
Guild Skies are almost completely annihilated!
Wh..who the hell are these people?
One enemy fighter approaching at high speed!
Fire! Fire!
Don't let it near us!
You ought to have worried more about your own fate.
Graceland...
If we do a swing-by using the Logos and Thanatos systems, which are en route...
Plus, we put the engines in overboost to gain even more speed...
Well?
If I plug all the variables in, it tells me we save half a day and change.
That'll work.
Looks to me like we'll make it.
Mister!
You all right now?
You think I can just lie there on my back doing nothing?
I guess you guys have decided what to do?
Yeah...
Our only choice is to delay the dropping of the photonic bomb.
None of that!
You're wounded. Alcohol is off-limits!
Oh, she's good!
Bruce, the man you approved of is finally taking this seriously.
You're probably watching it all yourself from somewhere in space.
Let's both see this through to the end.
