The Great Breakout Trick Operation
Hey, stop! Stop! Please stop!
Sorry, thanks.
I have a question. Which way should I go to get to town?
No one's passed by at all. I don't know what to do.
The scenery was so gorgeous that I got excited and wandered off,
and I don't know the way back anymore.
I'm sorry, but could you tell me the way back? Please.
I have such a horrible sense of direction. I can't do anything.
Fine, let him on.
Get on behind.
Thanks man, sorry for the trouble.
Hurry up.
Thank you!
This car is!
Hurry up!
Hurry, the tide is coming in.
Yes, Sir.
This building, surrounded by the turbulent waves of the Pacific,
is the final destination of murderers and other criminals
from around the world, Jinjin Prison.
No one who has gone in has ever left alive.
Even if they were to break out, it is impossible to swim across the Pacific.
There are no longer any dreams or hopes for the prisoners here.
There is only one thing awaiting them here,
and that is the day of their execution.
What are you doing?! Let me go!
Damn!
Why, you!
Just come quietly!
You jerks, I oughta...
Now! Go!
Yes, Sir!
Where are you going?!
Freeze! Where are you going?!
Freeze!
All you guards, please stay still.
What are you doing? Have you gone crazy?
Come to think of it, I've never seen these guys before!
My name is Blacky. If you want to keep living, stay still.
What? What's going on here?
Who are you people?!
Stop!
What's going on?!
This is Jinjin Prison, we have...
Hello? What's wrong?! Hello?!
Come on out! Gather in the courtyard!
Gather in the courtyard.
What's going on?
What's this about?
Just what's going on?
Are you going to let us go?
Come in, Gatchaman.
This is Gatchaman, over.
Ken, I just received a report that there has been an uprising at Jinjin Prison.
Two hundred prisoners have broken out of their cells and taken over the prison.
But, Doctor, isn't that prison famous for being impossible to escape from?
You are right. This was just too well-executed.
I believe Galactor is probably pulling the strings from behind.
Galactor? Why?
This is only my guess,
but perhaps to make the prisoners soldiers of Galactor.
Make the prisoners soldiers of Galactor?
Exactly! That's why we have come to rescue you.
Listen up! Vicious criminals like yourselves
are truly suited to become soldiers of Galactor.
I would like you all to display your true abilities.
But no one has ever escaped from here.
How are we going to get out!?
Yeah! How are we going to get out!?
Yeah!
Don't worry, nothing is impossible for Galactor.
Great! I may have happened upon a chance to discover Galactor's headquarters!
You're right. We are sentenced to death anyway. We'll gladly join your ranks.
Right, everyone?!
Yeah!
If it means getting out of here, we'll do anything you want!
We vow, as soldiers of Galactor,
to do all that is evil, with no consideration for our own lives,
in loyalty to Galactor from this day forth!
This is the representative of the prisoners, Alley Capone.
Okay, this is your last day here.
Say your farewells to this place by evening.
Yes!
Great!
I'm itching to use this punch that I fine-tuned in boxing.
You're incredible, Mr. Capone.
Wow, anyone who takes a punch like that is a goner!
You did a good job brawling earlier, kid.
You're just as good as I expected.
You could do well as a soldier of Galactor.
What? So does that mean I've been recruited by Galactor?
Yup, that's it. I wish you luck.
Oh no! I wish I had my bracelet with me.
And now for your mission. Put the prisoners back in their cells,
and find the home base of the party behind this: Galactor.
I pray for your success.
Yes, Sir. We will do our best.
This is the Jinjin Prison in question.
As you can see, it is surrounded by the ocean on all four sides,
but it's set up so that once in the morning, and once in the evening,
the tide recedes, and this path appears.
Hey, pretty secure.
Just what you'd expect from a prison for convicts on death row.
Then the only way the prisoners have to get out is this path, right?
The thing is, I found this out while investigating this case,
on the opposite side of the prison,
there's also a small island that appears at those times.
It's connected to the prison.
If the prisoners were to break out, it would probably be to this island.
What if Galactor comes here to pick them up?
I see, then they can break out.
The next time the tide recedes is 6 PM right?
The tide will be low for two hours,
we have to get the prisoners back in their cells during that time.
There is an empty space in front of the prison,
we have to take advantage of this.
And we have to find out where Galactor's headquarters are during that time.
Jun have you prepared Katse's voice?
I analyzed it in every way I can. It's just like the real thing.
Seems like the International Science Organization can do anything.
Okay, everyone, look over here.
I see, so we're going to dress up as Galactor to go pick up the prisoners?
But will we be able to fool them?
lt'll be fine, Jun.
Those guys in Galactor don't communicate with each other as well as you may think.
It'll go just as we want it to.
You are all exactly right.
Big brother! You can totally fool Galactor with that!
Ken, it looks better on you than Birdstyle.
Why you, stop it with the joking.
Oh, yes, do you know how long Ryu is on vacation?
Until today, he should be back in the evening.
Contact him immediately. Tell him his vacation is on hold.
We can't Ken.
He said he wanted to forget about the mission while he was on vacation,
so he left this behind.
That jerk, how can he be so selfish?
Good boy, good boy. Today is farewell.
Mary! Stella! Don't you be fighting now!
They sure are well tamed.
This is their roost. So it's like they live with us.
Did you give those sea gulls their names?
It's my wife and daughter's names.
What a cute little girl, and a beautiful wife.
My daughter's name is Mary.
She's going to become a beauty just like her mother.
I'm sure she will.
She loves flowers, red flowers.
She would always stick them in her hair, that would make her happy.
I'm going to go see them as soon as I leave here.
I wonder if they will still recognize me?
And, Jim, are you going to join the ranks of Galactor?
You've got to be kidding.
I'm tired of doing bad stuff.
I regret what I've done.
Kid, you should straighten up too.
I... Well, I... Okay.
Listen, carry on exactly as we have planned.
Let's go then. Begin the operation!
Roger!
Damn...
He's clumsier than I thought.
It's his first time. It can't be helped.
Damn it! What is Ryu doing, at a busy time like this?
What am I doing? This is just a little too tight for me...
How does it look?
It looks great Mr. Capone.
I want to go cause some trouble now!
I know! Calm down, calm down. I want to go cause some trouble now!
I know! Calm down, calm down.
Everyone! Are you ready?
Yeah!
It's time.
Okay, let's go! Everyone follow me!
Yeah!
I wonder if big brother is doing his job well?
Come on, time for us to get ready too.
Okay!
Meanwhile, Ken the Eagle was getting the prisoners to board the transport, as planned.
However, it was taking longer than expected to get the two hundred prisoners on board.
Hurry up! We don't have time!
Commander, we are almost to our destination island.
Good, Blacky should be waiting for us. Hurry!
Commander, why are you in such a hurry?
That's ... Because Sir Katse is waiting at headquarters.
He wants to see the new soldiers as soon as possible.
At headquarters? That's strange.
I thought we were taking them to the secret base.
Well, we've had a change of plans.
We are to take them all back to headquarters.
Hey! What are you doing?! Hurry up!
Okay, hurry up and go!
Commander, hold on a second.
Just in case, could you tell me the secret code word of Galactor?
Code word?
Science Ninja Team Gatchaman
Gatchaman
Yes, let's hear the code word, Commander.
What are you talking about?!
We have no such thing! Are you mocking me?!
Pardon me!
It is the law of Galactor to be as careful as possible.
Please forgive me.
Let us depart.
What kind of piloting is this? It sucks.
Damn it! Someone must have gotten here before us and taken them.
Commander, maybe it was the Science Ninja Team.
Okay, they couldn't have gotten too far.
Find them! Hurry!
Yes, Sir!
Ken has the prisoners, lead by Blacky, board the God Phoenix,
then he circles around in the air a few times,
and lands at the planned location near Jinjin Prison.
This is where The Great Breakout Trick Operation begins.
From here on out, they can afford no mistakes.
Oh, the windows are finally open. Look!
Oh, it's so pretty!
I haven't seen the sea in ten years.
It's like we're watching a movie. I haven't seen the sea in ten years.
To all on board, we will now head to headquarters.
We're traveling under the ocean to avoid atracting attention.
We will arrive there at approximately Midnight.
You can relax and take it easy until then.
We have five hours.
Commander, there is a strange reading in front of the prison.
Okay! Hurry!
Now that there's nothing to worry about, I'm getting sleepy.
It's as comfy as a cradle.
It's strange. This smell, it's sleeping gas.
Why are they doing such a thing?
Who is that? He's been doing strange stuff all this time.
Commander! There seems to be something in that town!
How strange, there isn't supposed to be a town there.
Okay, go investigate that town. Let me know if you find anything.
Yes, Sir!
Huh?
Oh, I must have fallen asleep without realizing it.
Oh! This late already? We should be arriving at headquarters soon.
Everyone! It's a town! Look at the lights of the town!
It's the first glimpse of the outside world we've had in a long time!
It's strange. This vehicle isn't running. This is a trick.
And I thought I had a chance to discover Galactor headquarters,
but they've got something up their sleeve. Damn it.
Hey, listen carefully. This is the perfect chance to start over.
When we get off this vehicle, we're going to run away during the confusion.
You're coming with me.
No, I...
Hey!
What are you two whispering about there?
Well the thing is, this vehicle is a trick! It's not running at all!
What?! What's the meaning of this?!
Blacky! There is something I want to ask you. Come down below with me.
What is that?
It's like a movie set.
Hurry!
I have a question for you.
Do you know the whereabouts of Galactor headquarters?
Of course, Commander.
But why do you ask?
I just received word from headquarters
the someone on board is from the Science Ninja Team.
The Science Ninja Team?
So what purpose is there in asking me about headquarters?
If you are a real member of Galactor, you should know where headquarters are. Tell me!
I see, so you are suspicious of me.
It is the law of Galactor to be as careful as possible.
Come! Say it!
I understand.
To get to Galactor headquarters, travel 100 kilometers southwest from the Arajin Desert,
and then travel another 150 kilometers south to...
What's wrong? Hurry and finish your sentence!
Oh no! They've seen through our plan!
You were about to trick me, Science Ninja Team.
So this is what a Science Ninja looks like?
First time seeing it. Looks like I've become a real hero.
Jun!
Okay! Jun!
Okay!
This is Berg Katse from headquarters.
Do you read me?
Oh! Lord Katse! Do you read me?
Oh! Lord Katse!
I just received word the International Police has heard of the incident, and is headed your way.
We have a change of plans.
Take everyone to the nearby secret base immediately!
Where is this secret base?
There's a strange building here. Check it out.
In here!
This looks suspicious. Destroy it!
We're not going to let you, Galactor!
What?!
It's the Science Ninja Team!
Take that!
Okay, let's have you contact your commander now. Hurry!
Commander!
What?
I just received word from Blacky!
He's in the prison, and he wants us to hurry and pick him up. Over!
In the prison?
It's there! Hurry up!
Now's our chance, run!
Wait!
Just come!
What is this?
More of them!
Joe!
Wait!
Ryu!
Hey! What are you doing there?! Return to the ranks! Now!
Damn... Guess I'll just have to wait for my next chance.
Ryu, just what are you doing here?
Joe! It's urgent! Look what Galactor left behind!
Big brother!
Oh no, the tide is rising.
This is strange...
I've been here before!
What are you hesitating for, Blacky?!
Damn!
Over there! Hurry!
The Science Ninja Team is giving chase! Hurry! Hurry up!
Big brother!
The real soldiers of Galactor,
completely fooled by the Science Ninja Team's Trick Operation,
arrive in the deserted inner courtyard of Jinjin Prison.
Oh no! We've been fooled!
We're here! We're here!
We're free!
Reporting in! I've brought all of the prisoners here!
Oh man, it was tough getting here.
Commander? What's the matter?
Oh! This is!
Where is this?
It's the prison. It's where we came from!
What? What's going on?
Hey, Mr. Capone, what's going on? What's happening here?
Shut up. How could I possibly know? You idiot!
I want to ask the same thing.
Say, what's going on here?
Hey! You over there! Stop!
Go back to the ranks!
I'm telling you to stop! Can you hear me?
Ryu, let's go! Ryu!
Ryu!
Let him be alone for a bit. Let's wait for him inside. Ryu!
Let him be alone for a bit. Let's wait for him inside.
Alone, Ryu is lost in a pensive reverie.
Is it because he was unable to discover Galactor headquarters?
Or is he thinking about Jim who swore to become honest, out of love for his family?
Even Ryu himself does not know the answer.
Don't lose heart, Ryu the Owl.
The fight will continue so long as Galactor exists.
