I have $200,000!
Sold, for $300,000!
What the hell?!
Sorry, but there's no smoking in here
Damn I can't smoke anywhere here
What's all this about? Yeah, what's the deal?
We have a report that a bigtime thief is on these premises
Do you know how much you'll lose if all your Picassos get stolen?!
Move
Our next item is Lot #27
Hold on!
What's with the dinky knickknack?! This isn't a garage sale!
But it's in the catalog
Yeesh I want to get to the upmarket stuff
Now, then! Lot #27! Marquez' Anniversary Ring!
The starting bid is $10,000! Do I have $10,000?
Get real

The Picasso auctions start at exactly 8:00
Lupin is DEFINITELY in there
$900,000! Umm
The manager says to close it up All right
One million dollars! Item #27 sold, for one mill
The madam on the phone wins it for $1,000,001!
Hold on, now! I haven't finished yet!
I'm sorry, sir We have a schedule to keep
Who cares?! I just want that ring
That's some bad acting, Lupin
Did you think that outfit would fool me?!
Ow!
Not too shabby, Pops! But I'm actually after somethin' else!
Why do you ALWAYS fall for my tricks?
Lupin! What are you
What the? What are you planning?!
Lupin! Your buddies run out on you?!
What the?!
The ring!
Arrest ALL the Lupins!
I know!
If I ever lose my job, I'll just go to Hollywood and be a makeup artist!
Might even get me Oscar!
Who're you? Toss the ring here
It's pretty shoddy, not even a single carat
Then why does the great Lupin the 3rd want it so badly?
Sorry, but it really is worthless
I only wanted it to win the heart of a certain girl
But, ''While there's life, there's hope,'' I guess
Indeed
Here
After him!
''Lupin the 3rd: $1 Money Wars''
See ya!
Things are gettin' interesting now!
Gonna sing my special song tonight
Gonna find my way to you all right
Like stars that cross only once now and then
Coming so close and yet parting
Two carefree travelers meeting again
Each time we meet love begins
And life's a tune, a jazzy tune
Hey, buddy
How much money you got on ya?
You wouldn't wanna pay with your life, now
Yeah, I wouldn't want that
I have some important business to attend to
Think you could save your holdup stuff for later?
We want us some burgers and cola for dinner
C'mon, buddy
If I say no?
Then we'll make you pay up!
Go on a diet
What?!
You're terrible! You promised you'd get me that ring!
Yeah, but this guy, he jacked up the price!
I don't care! I really wanted it!
I know you did, Sandy!
So have some of my passionate smoochies as an apology!
She gave YOU a passionate slap!
Wait, Sandy! Don't talk to me!
Sandychan!
Please open the door, Sandy!
Give me another chance, Sandy!
Lupin! How long're you gonna keep the bad act up?! Come on!
Bet I could get an Oscar with my great acting!
You know you were halfserious
Don't be like that I sure convinced 'em, didn't I?
Yeah, yeah
He's pretty far ahead So? We just take a shortcut!
Shortcut?
Central Park
Watch out! Don't bite your tongue! Too late!
Sorry, CuteyPie!
Why, you!
OK! There they are!
Got him! Now what?
He's just a lackey Let him take us to his boss
So, is that treasure really worth $1,000,001?
Yeah It's worth more than Fort Knox to those in the know
What?!
They say whoever gets this broach can be king of the world
King of the world?
Yeah
For some reason, it's been passed from ruler to ruler
Adolph Hitler, for example
Before that, Lenin
And much earlier than that, Napoleon had it
This mysterious item has traveled the world over from ruler to ruler
So you needed that ring to find the broach?
I didn't think anyone else even knew about the ring
Anyways, the last time it's been seen was during the Cold War
A revolutionist tried to get it after it vanished during the fall of Berlin
But just before he could
By chance, a soldier just happened to give the broach to a historian
to commemorate his daughter's birth
Aware of its secret, the scholar sealed the broach away somewhere
to prevent the possible rise of future dictators
Ah. So he engraved the secret into the ring
But what do you want it for? To make your own Lupin Empire?
'Course not
I just wanna see this broach that the world's leaders
tried oh so hard to find
So you're getting me involved with another of your hobbies, huh?
I'm counting on you, partner! Yeah, yeah
BOW? What's that?
''Bank of the World''
A boomtown bank that's really grown in the past few years
No wonder you lost; you took on a bank
No wonder. Now let's do this
You needn't worry about Lupin
Don't need to worry about Lupin, huh? That nitwit!
''He's just a womanchaser''
Get a load of this guy! Ha! It's the truth, ain't it?
Couldn't you have found a better spot to spy from?!
Quit complaining! You see the president?
All I see is the flunky
How rare for an American elite to be a heavy smoker
Wow! What is it?!
A woman!
He just wanted the ring to win some songbird at a club
Is Lupin that simple of a man?
You overrate him, Boss
He's nothing but a cheap burglar
As a former Spetsnaz, I can assure you that
Yikes!
What happened?
You've just made things much more interesting
He's not just some womanchaser
Not Lupin
Cut!
''I want to go shopping I want to go shopping I want to go''
Come on! Please?! Just this once?!
You're always so childish, Lupin
Thievery isn't where it's at anymore
Using the economy to get treasure legally is easier and more profitable
That's easy if you can invest in movies, but I'll give you my take
if you'll invest in me Okay?
I'll do other things for you too
If you want an investment, then submit a business proposal
THEN I'll consider it
Who in the world writes up burglary proposals?!
Crime is business, too!
Michael!
She's so weak around hot men
But that's also why she likes me! Or not
I guess it's another cargo plane for me
Everyday, you toil at your jobs Day in, day out
And America's economy is currently at its peak
Yet you don't live affluent lives Why is that?
I have no desire to assist in your moneymaking schemes
I am now striving for a tranquil mind through religion
You have no problems helping a fake evangelist scam money
How dare you say that of her! Hey, now!
You will pay for your insult!
I thought religious people weren't allowed to be violent!
If it's for the priestess' sake
Goemon! What are you doing? Come along
Coming!
I only wish to train Refrain from luring me to the path of evil!
I take my leave
You, also, should seek the path of salvation
$100 a copy
Hey!
I guess faith depends on money, too
I hope you're not gonna ask me to pay after I eat all this?
Don't worry This is a small token of gratitude
Gratitude? If this is a bribe, I decline
I'll pay the bill in installments
You needn't worry We have no ulterior motives
Alright, then So?
I'll cut to the chase We want information on Lupin the 3rd
Lupin?
He has his eyes on our bank
May I ask the details?
Whew
The great thief gets some great exercise, huh?
Like I have a choice Fujiko refused to help fund us
Geez Save some money, will ya? Look who's talking!
All the banks in the world are my piggy banks, anyway!
Sure is a pain getting money out of 'em, though
Oh, it's you, Goemon Don't scare us like that!
I thought you were turning religious on us with some girl?
We are having difficulty collecting funds
So I came to acquire some So basically you need some dough?
I suppose
Get some with Jigen here I'M after something sparkly!
OK! Now's our chance!
Goemon! Give us a hand here!
I will do no evil! I got news for ya
So? Are you certain you can stop Lupin?
Probably
''Probably?'' I'm not paying you big money to hear, ''Probably''
Make certain you kill him
So you're going to obtain your goal of this entire landscape?
It's not a goal; it's a door
A door to obtaining all of the black market economies
That may be fine for you,
but all I'll have is a reputation as a hit man
Being the one who killed the world's greatest thief won't be enough?
I'm a greedy man
What I want is the brilliant woman who's been on the front page
of the Wall Street Journal and is even after the black market
If you want highreturns, you have to take highrisks
I take it hiring new bodyguards was highrisk, too?
It cost you a lot
Hardly
Three, two, one
Well, then!
Long way ahead of us!
Mind if I ask you something? Be my guest
Why do you think Lupin is after that ring?
I have no idea how criminals' minds work
You sure have tight security, though
You can never be too cautious Wouldn't you agree, Inspector Zenigata?
What?! The farthest one?!
Is someone here out of luck?
Let's go!
Jigen!
Guess you're the unlucky one Aw, shut up!
Here
Your butt'll catch cold without one What about you?
I rely more on this than guns to fight
Whadya say we get on with the millennium's greatest robbery?
Whoa!
What the?!
Lupin! Get back here!
For a millennium job, this is pretty oldfashioned!
Why not? If we wanna thwart their digital ways
analog's the way to go!
Take a right!
Aren't your glasses digital?! Quiet!
This is training
Emergency! Emergency!
All personnel, secure upper floors at once!
Seal all exits as well
Damn you, Lupin! Ouch!
Lupin! How dare you!
What're you doing?! After them! You, too!
Nice to meet you, pretty president! You!
Lupin! Where are you?! Boss!
Don't mess up our date, Pops!
Ow!
Handprint match Cynthia F Craymov
Way to go, hitech
See? It's no match for lowtech, Jigen
Thanks!
That oughta slow 'em down a bit
Are you sure it'll be that easy?
Oh? You're awake already? Without a kiss from your prince?
I'm not fond of monkey princes You're too funny
Ah, well Since you're up, you can open these locks
If I say no?
You'll need to pay for repairs in here
The Zantetsuken Supposedly cuts through anything
You're well informed!
To investors, information is life
According to my information, you should open it up
Lupin's already in there?! Most likely!
Then open the door already!
I can't! We need to get the console repaired first!
Lupin!
I take it you know about that ring's importance?
Do you think I'd steal a cheap ring like this if I didn't?
Whoops Not so fast
Now, then We'll need a oneway exit out of here, Goemonchan
You're not gonna say you cut another whateverthing again?
This is all for training
I see
What was that sound? Boss!
Sorry, but you're tagging along
Think you could speed it up? Our guests'll be here soon
A successful escape! Now let's keep on goin'!
I don't think it'll be that easy
We're surrounded I suggest you give up
Funny I don't wanna wind up with a wellventilated body
Hey! You fellas hidin' over there!
You won't get a single cent if your employer dies!
It's no use Just hand over the ring and give yourselves up
You sure are one persistent broad A problematic woman
I might consider it if you guarantee our lives, though
Your fan club is way too enthusiastic
The perfect thing to make an escape You sure sound happy
You lack training!
Let the president go or I shoot
Lupin!
Hey, now! You wouldn't wanna shoot your boss!
Fire!
Stop!
Why're they shooting?!
They likely have great skill
with their shooting!
It's so obvious you don't shoot women!
How'd you know?!
What is wrong, Jigen?!
Guns are like women, and Lupin's woman only listens to him!
That's the fun part! Whatever!
Sorry, but we part here See ya another time
There won't BE another time Are you so sure?
My hunches are usually right,
and I have one that says we WILL see each other again
I guess you're right Most likely I'LL see you
Stop! Don't destroy the helicopter! The ring!
Oh? You don't need it anymore?
Nope Your woman's too hard to handle
Her friskiness is what's best about her
Jigen!
Lupin!
Descend! Get Lupin! Will we make it in time?!
Lupin!
All are equal before God
Even if this man did kill 35 people during Mafia disputes,
God might yet swallow His tears and forgive his sins
I believe it will be difficult, but I ask that He have mercy on his soul
A hit by the Butches?!
Stop that!
What's with him? He's dead
Who're you?!
S-sorry!
For the repairs and his funeral costs
By God's mercy, may this man's spirit rest in peace
From ashes to ashes, dust to dust
Lupin! Why'd you have to die?!
Bury him
Wait! Stop!
Lupin's not dead, right?! Jigen?! Goemon?!
This is just a plan to trick me like always, right?!
Lupin!
Miss! The money!
It's not true, right?! Lupin can't be dead!
He can't be
Lupin!
Whatever the case, I want to finish what he started
Why? There's no point in carrying out a dead person's last wish
No point?!
This only happened 'cause YOU wouldn't help!
His proposal just didn't sound lucrative! Another burger, please!
How heartless
Goemon
Is this how you write ''resignation''?
It's not wrong, but can't you write it more neatly?
You should take a correspondence penmanship course
Maybe I'll do that
So? What are you going to do? That's obvious
There's only one thing to do after your partner's killed
It better not be illegal! I thought you were quitting?
Oh yeah
At any rate, we must be wary of meeting the same fate as Lupin
We ARE up against an investment bank with ample funds
An investment bank?!
Yeah
A new financial mob that uses hedge funds and shady bonds
to control the world's economies, including the black market
BOW Bank of the World They really got us
No way! They got me, too!
Yes! Small, developing countries are your best investment!
Lowrisk, highreturn!
Southern vacations, mansions with pools, farms
They can all be yours!
I invested all my money in these Prince Bonds!
I thought it'd be safe since they were aggressively buying
major Asian corporations!
I see There was a coup just before the bonds reached maturity,
so the old government's bonds are as good as scrap paper
That was everything I owned! Seek salvation $100 a copy
I hate religion even more! That's what you get for being greedy
Welcome
This sucks, man! I got stiffed out of my taxi fare!
It happens
No way, man! I drove here from LA for three whole days!
Well, that's the gist of it
You're some woman!
Having Gilbert take full responsibility for your Prince Bonds scheme
and then skipping the country
Even if he goes to prison, I'll ensure it's in a firstclass accommodation
and that a firstclass life awaits him after that
So what's the problem?
And you'll be keeping all the Prince Bond profits for yourself?
I'll contact you once I solve the ring's mystery
In the meantime, eliminate the rest of Lupin's friends
Where's your beloved Combat Magnum?
She's seein' someone else
They taken a fancy to her? Maybe
That's why I'm gettin' her back
You should get some flowers for your gal
No, I'm gonna dish out some lead
So? Did you find out who he is?
Alex Nabikov, former KGB Currently does dirty work for BOW
Interesting
Didn't his boss fly to Switzerland? So why not him?
Dunno
In any case, this is the perfect place to settle the score
And for an ambush Let's go!
Guess we DID keep 'em waiting
Damn! She pulls to the left
It appears he stayed behind to kill us Persistent bastard!
That Magnum!
Jigen! Goemon!
Fujiko! Leave it to me!
Thanks!
A knifewielder
Goemon! Get him already!
I cannot with you squirming! Don't start blaming me!
Sorry, but she doesn't suit ya
You guys get back!
