What...

You've got the right to remain silent, Ibara!

I've always wanted to say that!

I fired one shot into the air and another at Moz.

There were three left, so that was my last one!

Anything you say can and will be used against you in...

Wait, how does it go, again?

And am I charging him with assault? Or some kinda corruption?

Ah, whatever. It doesn't matter.

I'm placing you under arrest on suspicion of being an ultra-bad dude!

Hell yeah! Medusa's mine!

Now that we've got this baby in hand, we've pretty much won, right?

And it's all thanks to this badass sheriff!

That smug bastard Moz might've gotten the better of me before,

but it's time for some petrification-powered payback!

Petri-beam, activate!

Yo has vanquished the enemy!

You're amazing!

It's settled! Yo-kun should be the Kingdom of Science's new ruler!

Your skills are truly exhilarating, Yo-kun.

Eat this, Moz!

Do your thing, petri-beam!

Right... I got no clue how to use this thing.

Ah, Hyoga...

It's clear that you're incredibly strong.

But the way you handle that spear betrays how desperately you've struggled for that strength.

I can practically smell all the sweat and tears you've poured into practicing.

What a shame.

You truly were fated to lose this battle.

You simply can't compete with my raw talent.

You might have artificial fangs, sharpened through hard work and training,

but I was born with fangs of steel.

That was no slip.

He purposely dove into the water.

Are you that desperate to escape?

How pathetic.

Senku-kun isn't the kind of man who would turn tail and run at the first sign of danger.

I'd wager they dashed off to collect something.

Wait, isn't that...

Naturally they'd want their wildcard

to have access to his wildest technique, right?

I'm certain they'll make it happen!

I'll place my faith in that fact!

Really? Me?

Putting my faith in Senku-kun?

How thick is your spear, Kinro?

Will any of these fit?

This one's fairly close, but it'll be a bit tight.

Slim odds that we'd find a perfectly-sized bamboo shoot, I suppose.

We don't need to.

Just combine graphite gathered from chimney soot with some alcohol,

and we've got ourselves some instant lubricant.

Mecha-Senku on the scene, once again!

Hope you didn't miss me too much!

Today we're looking at how ridiculously slick carbon lattices are!

You can even make things slide with regular pencil lead!

Have a stubborn drawer that sticks?

Etch over the edges with a pencil and it'll be butter smooth!

But it'll turn your hands black the second you touch it,

so make sure to tell your parents before trying this one at home, kids.

Would ya look at that sheen!

And so slippery, too! Incredible!

A long, long time ago,

Ishigami Village's strongest man, Magma-chan,

chucked a rock across a ravine so we could pretend we had invented the ultimate weapon: the gun.

But precision is key this time.

Think those ridiculous muscles of yours are up to the task, Magma?

Ya ain't even gotta ask, ya damn weaklings!

Thank you kindly.

You all truly are diligent.

Prepare yourself, Moz-kun.

For you're about to witness the spear of science.

With five hundred years of history woven into it, this is the Owari Kan-ryu spear style!

The tip of his spear is spinning so quickly...

It's like a full moon.

No!

It's like the golden light...

of the sun!

Impossible!

No spear should be able to move like that!

How are you doing this?!

Simply put, I'm using something called leverage.

The bamboo pipe acts as the fulcrum.

Mastering this style takes countless years. Nobody is born with this ability.

Though it might go faster with this particular bamboo pipe, since it was so excellently crafted.

Oh, man! The bamboo pipe spear is so badass!

He's beating back Moz!

Goddammit!

Am I really gonna lose to some dumb sorcery?!

Sorcery, huh?

Is that what you think humanity's strongest weapon is, Moz-kun?

On the contrary, our true weapon is the ability to create such things.

The unique power that places the human race above all others...

Again.

Yes, sir!

Our capacity to diligently accumulate knowledge, generation-by-generation, across millennia.

We continue to refine the skills we're taught until the day we die.

And after that, our never-ending work is carried on by our successors.

No amount of raw talent could ever hope to compete with such constant, diligent refinement.

Scram! Or I'm gonna blast ya with my sorcery!

Not that I've got any more ammo, anyway.

Real shame I dunno how to use this thing.

But hey, at least this means Ibara's plan to petrify the island is dead in the wa—

Three meters. One second.

The hell is goin' on here?!

Oarashi!

I need to hurry and give him the device as planned, and then...

No, I shouldn't be rash.

At times like this, this old man's true strength is his ability to exercise due caution.

Just a moment ago, Oarashi witnessed the horrors that this thing is capable of.

But I still need to get him to take it to the center of the island,

which means I'll have to get a bit crafty!

Two thousand meters. Fifteen minutes.

What was that?!

Something about meters... and... seconds?

And the ominous sound of the device activating!

He looks really scared! Like he's running from something!

Oarashi?!

This is bad! The path he's on now...

leads straight to the center of the island!

You're up, Taiju!

Use that booming voice of yours to inform our comrades of the situation!

Kingdom of Science! That Oarashi dude is carrying Medusa!

At this rate, the entire island will be petrified! We have to stop him!

Dunno what's going on, but we gotta protect Oarashi-sama!

Don't attack us, idiots!

We're trying to save you from being turned to stone!

We got 'im!

Miracle power!

In terms of pure strength,

nobody on the island can hold a candle to Oarashi.

What course do we take now?

It's too late to escape to the open sea!

Think, Senku!

Do you have any cards left to play?

What moves do I have available?

Come on! I'm the explorer!

The science user, Chrome!

Senku always talks about how science has gotta be reproducible!

So think back! To the last petrification beam attack!

I wasn't just sitting there dumbstruck! I was observing and learning!

Listen, Senku. Last time around,

I had a front-row seat to the action.

I saw Medusa's petrification attack from start to finish.

Back then, one thing stood out to me.

The speed at which the beam spread.

It grows at a constant rate.

Is that a flash of inspiration I sense? Pray tell, Chrome!

You might wanna take a seat, 'cuz this plan's crazy enough to knock you over!

Regardless of how insane it might be, the Kingdom of Science won't hesitate!

Our only choice is to keep moving forward!

How is this guy so damn strong?!

Dammit! I was so close!

Hurry! Grab the device!

Throw it as far as you can!

H-He doesn't have it!

What's going on?!

Get off me, will ya?! I'm just trying to get to safety!

Ibara-sama said I wouldn't be turned to stone if I made it to the center of the island!

I'm swallowing water!

If you want to avoid being turned to stone, you just need to reach the center of the island.

Hurry over, now!

How can someone be so cruel?!

The rest is up to you, Senku!

You guys...

You're the only one who can claim Medusa's head, Senku!

Put that big brain of yours to use and let science show the way!

It's gonna take everything in our arsenal to crack through Medusa's petrification beam!

This is it!

Everyone on the island is doomed!

If nothing else, I need to at least convey what I learned!

The device is voice-activated!

You specify the range and a countdown time!

It seems we'll both be meeting our end today.

Apparently so.

I doubt we'll be revived anytime soon, seeing as both factions view us as wildcards.

We're simply too big of a risk.

Well, damn, this was my first defeat. And I guess it'll be my last, too.

But if we ever do break free,

I'd love to hear more about this craft of relentless refinement.

Your so-called bamboo pipe technique.

I'll gladly teach you.

The gates of the Owari Kan-ryu school are open to all who are willing to partake diligently.

My plan went off without a hitch, and I'm the last man standing!

This is so absurd, even I can't help but laugh!

Why, hello there!

You have a very voluptuous figure, don't you?

Shame it's all stone now!

It makes this old man feel lonely, but not to worry!

I happen to know that those sorcerers possess revival water!

And if there isn't enough, I'll just free a sorcerer and torture them 'til they make more!

A group of them were chasing Oarashi up the mountain, so they should be just up this path!

They formed a line?

And they're all striking that same strange pose.

I know that face.

So you saw...

Infant or not, you're still a witness.

To pass down the Hundred Tales,

generations of masters have taken wives with impressive memories.

As a result, my son can already remember everything he sees.

How could you be so heartless, Ibara-sama?!

Capture her!

She's abducting Prince Soyuz!

Freeze, scum!

Sad days, Soyuz-chan!

You survived that ordeal and spent the past twenty years growing up as a nobody,

only to return home and meet the same fate as your idiotic father!

Now you can both rest in pieces!

Fresh footprints?

That's odd.

The petrification device activated close by, yet this person ran quite far.

That sound seems familiar.

Isn't it the same noise the earring makes?

The beast that fled from their boat?

Wait! This is no living creature!

Is it just more of their sorcery?

Five meters. One second.

Damn. Did Ukyo get it wrong?

Doubt it. You probably just gotta be up close and personal when giving the command.

How goes it, Ibara?

Looks like we're the last ones standing, pal.

Time for a boss fight worthy of its own epic.

Science vs. Medusa, with us as their champions.

How the hell are you still alive?!
