Let's go back, Shadow!
It's too dangerous trawling on a day like this!
They're doing a nice show at the Piccadilly!
I bought two tickets for it!
Gina, run the boat towards that ship!
Get closer! Run the boat along the ship's side!
Huh? Fine.
What the-?!
Was it lightning?
What's wrong?
The radar mast is wrecked!
Our communication functions are shot!
We can't even send an emergency signal!
Okay, everybody listen up!
Right now, we're taking over this here ship.
All right, let's go back!
Gina!
Do you want to go back to prison?!
Just last night you woke up screaming after dreaming of those concrete walls closing in on you!
And now... you're getting involved in this again?
You also brought this with you?
Hey, stop that!
I've had it!
I've been through hell without you, and now that you're out you go and do this again?
Shut up, willya?!
Try wrapping your head around what $100,000 easy money will mean to us!
I don't want to know!
What... is this?
Hey, come on!
Help me out!
Hey!
Hey, ain't that Shadow?
Bomber, slow down the boat to a near standstill!
Hey, someone throw the guy a float!

If I'm with you we'll find our dream.
Today's the 24th, 6:30 AM. Hurricane Sharon, which has made another landfall on the Florida peninsula
currently has a wind speed of 112 mph and a barometric pressure of 28.11.
Also, Hurricane Sharon is currently en route-
...it is predicted to drop to a Category Two status at around 9:00 AM.
It will pick up strength again once it pulls back into the Atlantic.
Right now it is a Category Three storm.
Hurricane Sharon shares the same features with Hurricane Lucy from three years ago...
On top of the crap we have to deal with, we get this!
No kidding.
I know it's a bit early, but we gotta ship out.
I'll take in the particulars in the car.
A 26,000 ton tanker out of New York Harbor loaded with crude called the DEXY
was headed for Liverpool when it got hijacked.
The DEXY is right now heading south on the Atlantic.
They're holding 20-odd crew members hostage, so we can't cowboy our way through this one.
The suspects are after the crude oil on the DEXY.
We figured the only way to take back the DEXY is to put a bullet through every one of those culprits.
If the DEXY manages to pull out of American waters, we can no longer lay a finger on them.
And once that happens, the hostages will be as good as dead since they won't be needed any more.
Which means we're requesting the services of that guy, right? But...
...is he really coming?
A guy like Golgo 13...
He's a man who never goes back on his word.
Five minutes till the allotted time.
Christ, can he pick a worse place to rendezvous?
Golgo 13 is able to stay alive for so long only because he's this overcautious.
But he's meeting with us.
Couldn't we discuss this at a hotel lobby or something?
Besides, if he does have enemies lurking around here, he has nowhere to hide.
So... you're saying he's checking us out from somewhere even as we speak?
Probably so.
Right on time.
Who'd ever think that you'll appear from out of those fierce waves?
Get in. We'll have our conversation out at sea.
You take the controls.
Uh, right.
As you can see, the DEXY was boarded by an armed gang.
We've confirmed that three of the culprits work for the mafia boss, Whiskey Joe.
That's Whiskey Joe.
The main culprit is Whiskey Joe's right-hand man who people call Bomber.
Those are his muscles, Louie and Bob.
Then there's one more.
He's a freelance sharpshooter who goes by the name of Shadow.
Whiskey Joe hired him just for this hijacking.
He's a top-notch sniper whose skills got him a commendation from the Marines.
This guy has such a short fuse it's a pain in the ass.
He's capable of pulling anything if we make a wrong move.
Attention DEXY hijackers!
Immediately throw down your weapons and surren-!
You've gather a lot of information in such short notice.
Shadow's lady friend became our pigeon.
I swear, I just don't understand women.
She wanted us to spare Shadow in return for all the dirt she knew.
Here, use this.
A Springfield M14.
I got it from the captain's cabin.
What about the ship's crew?
Locked up in a cabin.
They were shaking in their boots when we threatened to sink this ship with dynamite.
We got a destroyer!
So we're facing the Navy. Guess it's all over.
Shut up!
We got a bellyful of hostages, remember?
Get the captain here.
This is just a taste!
If you don't back off, everyone gets killed!
We won't stop till the last person hangs!
Look!
The destroyer's retreating!
Hah! How you like them apples!
Here's the $3 million we're paying you.
I'll answer once I take a look at the DEXY.
Switch places.
If we get any closer, we'll fall within their ideal range!
What are you doing, Golgo 13?
Hey, you there! Don't get close, it's too dangerous! Get back!
This is too much!
It's like you're begging them to shoot you!
Golgo 13!
What the... hell...?
Bulletproof glass?
Even from a rocking ship traveling at high speeds, he was able to shoot on target.
He's a pro.
And he's no ordinary pro either.
Looks like it.
So will you accept, Mr. Golgo 13?
Get the DEXY 's blueprints and find out about the guns they're using.
I want to know what they're carrying.
Sure... so you're doing it?
With the same intensity as before
Hurricane Sharon is slowly continuing east through the Florida peninsula at 21 mph.
The barometric pressure at the eye is 28.05 with wind speeds clocking as high as 134 mph.
We warn all ships cruising the area to watch out for large waves.
Also, there will be active storm clouds covering every area due to the hurricane, plus heavy rain-
Is something wrong?
Hmph. Always on time, Golgo 13.
Where's the DEXY?
It's now right off Florida, 33 degrees north, 73 degrees west
heading south-southwest at around 12 knots.
They'll be outside American waters in about 2 hours.
The Coast Guard has the Jayhawk ready for you.
Got it.
All right, that's good!
Hmm?
Your timing is perfect!
It's no German U-boat, but it can go up to 9 knots underwater.
Still, what are you planning to do with this underwater vessel?
Right, I forgot.
Here's the rest.
Like you said.
Golgo 13 you say?
I can't comprehend why you'd want to entrust this job to that mystery man, Mr. Flanagan.
I've already selected 10 expert marksmen from the local Coast Guard.
We've organized sniper teams.
As you can see, the rifles these boys are holding are equipped with PVS-14 night-vision sights.
That means they can sense the infrared rays the culprits are emitting even in the dark.
Those things are capable of thermographic imagery.
The sniping team are on board the two ships we launched.
They'll close in on the DEXY and shoot the bad guys.
The DEXY will soon be 500 meters ahead.
Are you sure about this, Mr. Duke Togo?
Lower the equipment and leave this place immediately.
Okay.
Wait, Mr. Kimmel
What I'm worried about is your teams' confidence in their accuracy.
I know that you boys are excellent.
Still, how many times have you taken a shot in choppy waters from a boat that's shaking like a leaf?
Never, not once.
So, you still believe you can take down a bad guy in one shot?
That's something I won't know unless I try.
What we're dealing with are thugs who killed the ship's captain in cold blood after merely seeing a destroyer.
If we're not 100 percent certain we'll succeed, we simply can't go off half-cocked.
So where in God's name did you get your confidence in this Golgo 13 guy?
At the very least, he may be the only person in the world who has a 100 percent accuracy rate.
We got an incoming from the Seahawk destroyer.
At 0030 hours, the DEXY taking route 370
suffered a minor yet sudden explosion followed by a slowdown in speed.
The sounds of the engines and propellers have ceased.
That's Golgo 13.
The man has made his move.
Attention hijackers!
You got nowhere to run!
Throw down your weapons and surrender immediately!
I repeat... throw down your weapons and surrender immediately!
No good! The machinery is shot!
This ship ain't moving!
Does this mean we got no choice but to surrender?
Shut up! We still have our hostages!
We'll use them to demand escape boats!
Bob, bring out the folks we got in the bridge!
If this ship can't move, then they're useless to us!
You got it!
Louie, go with him!
Right!
Cease your useless resistance and surrender immediately!
I repeat, surrender immediately!
All right guys!
W-What...?
Bomber...
They only got our guys.
And each was shot once either in the head or the heart.
You got nowhere to run!
Now surrender immediately!
I repeat... surrender immediately!
Fuck with me, willya?
Dammit, where are those guys?!
They must have given up.
Who the hell are you?
The most difficult target to shoot is the one that's falling down.
And you came down after calling me out and getting me to raise my muzzle.
So you also know how to exploit a sharpshooter's worst blind spot?
So... will you tell me your name?
Golgo... 13.

I won't cry like I did that day.

I won't.
This job will take place in mid-air.
Golgo and his employer, Earp, head for their target in a small jet.
At the same time, a man who detests Earp has secretly planned a murder plot of his own.
The two murderous intents will bring about crises neither party knows about.
Next time on Golgo 13: Murderous Crosspoints.
MURDEROUS CROSSPOINTS
Don't stand behind him, if you value your life.
THIS WORK IS ENTIRELY FICTIONAL.
