Lupin III: Walther P 38 (Lupin III: Island of Assassins)

to Make Appearance

!

Not your brightest idea, Lupan.

Though I don't remember making any of those.

What?

-Then who did?! -Exactly!

That's what I'm here to find out!

Save your excuses for the interrogation room!

Oh, no, you don't!

Get back here, Lupan!

Lupan!

Five of you go around back!

The rest take care of downstairs!

Freeze!

The chase ends here.

Doesn't something seem fishy? A fake ad and a group of killers?

Quiet! Your arrest comes first!

LUPAN THE 3RD

In Memory of the Walther P38

Are they really up ahead?

Yeah.

The world's largest assassination group: Tarantula.

It's an organization of killers whose existence is shrouded in mystery.

If an important person is assassinated, you can bet they're involved.

They've influenced history itself.

What do we know about 'em?

Barely anything.

They caught one once, he died strangely after his mask was removed.

He had nothing on him to serve as evidence.

All that remained was...

...that tattoo?

But why such a tedious way of entering?

Have a look at this.

Random Navigation. It's sent only to this boat.

If we were to take a different course than this.

A geosynchronous satellite laser?

This is why planes and tankers suddenly vanish...

...when they happen into these waters.

"Devil's Triangle" fits it to a T.

There it is.

Hard to believe there're islands not on maps even in these times.

Don't you get it?

This assassination group is officially recognized.

By all governments.

Quit your loafin'! Get moving!

What is it?! What's going on?!

We have intruders!

Well, then.

Let's get going.

He's held on with amazing endurance...

...but it seems the miracle is at its end.

Zenigata-kun.....

Such a pity.

Zenigata-kun!

I'll never forget your ardor!

We will arrest Lupan!

Lupan?!

-Lupan?! Lupan.....! -I'm not Lupan!

Calm down, Zenigata-kun!

Sir! Where's Lupan?!

He's still on the loose!

I thought so! I will be the one who.....

He's unconscious.

I leave the rest up to you.

Hey, Lupan.

I thought there was only one Walther like yours.

Got a story behind it?

I was still a novice when I used that silver pistol.

So this was before you and me met?

Let's get some shut-eye.

Fools.

That was a fancy how-do-you-do!

You're that sneak-thief, Lupan!

Sneak-thief, indeed.

Does that make you guys attack dogs on leashes?

What?!

Spill it!

Why did you call us here with the fake fliers and the Walther?!

Called?

Don't play dumb!

We've been kind enough to play into your trap!

You're the ones playing dumb!

What?!

Cut the crap and just say you're here for the organization's gold!

Hear that?

There's more to this than I thought!

What now?

See you at the spot.

Don't be dyin' now.

The party's...

...just started!

What?! What?!

Ow!

Ouch!

It's her.

Knock it off. I don't like fighting women.

Especially cute ones like you!

That 'woman' is going to kill you.

Are you so sure?

You have beautiful eyes for an assassin!

Get away from her!

Did you kill him?!

No.

Lupan can be one tough foe!

We're wanted back.

Give us one more chance!

-We will kill him next time! -No.

Catch him alive.

-But we've never done that before.... -Go.

Yes, sir!

Lupan.....

Alive?!

You must've misheard 'beat to death'!

He just needs to be alive, even if all sliced up!

He'll be the greatest prey you ever hunt!

Now go!

Who's in here?!

Don't scare me like that!

I've been waiting for you!

I'm not in the mood!

Go back to your room!

You look so angry.

Did something happen?

Who are you?

A friend of Lupan's?

Lupan?

Who's that?

Don't play stupid!

Fujiko...

...I've been suspicious ever since you joined voluntarily.

Why did you get near me?

Are you that afraid?

What?!

Afraid of this Lupan person.

Now I feel like choppin' you up! Right after Lupan!

Like they say, thorns make a flower beautiful.

Goemon.

You're keeping watch, right?!

Goemon?

You shouldn't ...

...let your guard down, even in your own room.

Be careful from now on, Fujiko!

Lupan!

What are you going to do about this?!

Oh, looks good on you!

Stop kidding around!

You've been poisoned, right?

Yes!

Wait, you knew?

Just a little.

I don't know what you're talking about!

Enough details! How's your work going?

Dunno.

Don't be so mad!

They get paid in gold bars for killing.

That's all I've found out.

Where's it hidden?

I was trying to find out just now.

But there were no clues.

Then I leave that up to you!

Wait!

So Goemon...

...isn't keeping watch for me?

He's probably pigging out on his first meal in two weeks.

So your role was to go on ahead and act as Fujiko's bodyguard?

It was the beginning of the month when I first hid in that cargo crate.

Nothing but beans for two weeks?

Here. I have some pickled plums.

I am ever grateful.

So I barely survived thanks to this.

I'll need to thank the police department.

Come in.

Zenigata-kun.

Ch...Chief!

Ow...!

How are you?

I'm recovering just fine!

How on earth is your body constructed?

Nothing.

But to think you of all people would be shot by Lupan.

No!

Lupan wasn't the shooter!

Look!

"Vice President Ametelia assassinated...."

Beneath that!

"The bullet that shot ICPO Inspector Zenigata matched with Lupan's."

We are pursuing Lupan as a witness to the assassination.

Please put me in charge of the investigation!

I thought you might ask, but you can't with those injuries.

Concentrate on getting better first.

Chief!

Nice to meet you!

I am Vicky Flannegan!

He's your new partner.

What can one tenderfoot possibly do?!

Let me handle this alone.

Give it up.

Chief!

Chief! Wait, please!

I'll get Lupan myself!
