Fujiko, give me your love.
- Move over! Fujiko, my dear! - What?! You butthead!
- I was here first! - What are you doing?!
I'm younger! You're old!
"The Sirloin, a super-deluxe ship, has just been completed and...
...on October 3, she begins her world tour maiden voyage from Lisbon."
"So, I decided to host our 5 year reunion on this ship."
"Your tickets for the Sirloin and a flight to Lisbon are enclosed herewith."
"Buddies! Accept my invitation graciously and fly to Lisbon at breakneck speed!"
"Seeing ya, Lupin III."
The Sirloin is the most luxurious ship built in this century.
It cost 1.2 trillion yen and took 5 years to build.
It weighs 250,000 tons, is 500m long and 65m wide...
...with 130 cabins for 6,500 people. It cruises at 75km/h. Bon voyage!
Restaurant! Theater! Pool! Clinic! Ski Facility!
American Football field! Race track! What? Even a police station!
This is a moving hotel, or more like a moving town!
It's almost time to meet with the others.
"Under the sun and at the blue ocean, stretch your body to your heart's content."
So, still a DJ fan, Goemon?
You haven't matured at all during the last five years, eh, Goemon?
And you haven't quit smoking as you promised 5 years ago.
Daisuke Jigen!
"Quietly you're drinking sake. I see darkness in your eyes..."
That cigarette holder is inlaid with diamonds.
Which rich old man did you deceive for it, Fujiko dear?
Deceive? That's no way to greet me after not seeing each other for 5 years!
By the way, Lupin used to be always punctual. But now, he is 15 seconds late!
He hasn't shown up yet.
Ah! It's a suicide dive!
Think so? Look at that flashy diving pose!
Aye-yi-yi... Ahhhh!
- Let's toast to our reunion! - Cheers!
Sorry for being late. I had stupid errands to run.
Anyway, Lupin, it's unusual for you to make an effort towards anything other than stealing.
Huh?
Well, not only did you plan out our reunion...
...but also you invited us on your dime. What a guy!
No just wait a minute! What the hell do you mean by reunion on my dime?
What?
Huh?
This is the one I received. Could you read it out loud, Fujiko dear?
"Lupin, my darling. You are so mean to leave me alone for 5 years!"
"I won't forgive you! I cannot stand it any longer!"
"So please, please, come see me on the Sirloin on October 3."
"If you come, I will give you my most precious..."
Surely you didn't take this seriously?
Not really. Besides...
What is it?
...I didn't smell your trademark perfume, Chanel #5 on this letter.
You mean that these invitations are...
...all fake?!
All of us? But if you suspected this from the beginning, why did you come?
It's better to exterminate anyone seeking to deceive me early on.
You mean there are assassins on the ship?
Maybe.
Lupin the Third!
You're not gonna get away today!
- Gosh! Zenigata! Pops! I've missed you! - Hey, what are you doing? You pervert!
Hey, Zenigata! Pops! I heard you had been sent...
...to a police station in some rural area after you let me slip out of the country.
TAKAHATA VILLAGE POLICE STATION
Look at this!
There are gods who discard and there are gods who recycle in this world.
Read it!
"We have been informed that Lupin will be present on Sirloin's maiden voyage."
"Therefore, we require your assistance in arresting him, as you know him the best."
"We hereby request you to report to the police station on board."
"To Inspector Zenigata, from the Interpol Marine Crime Control Dept."
I even have an arrest warrant from Interpol.
Lupin the Third... Give up peacefully!
Hey, Lupin... You really are Lupin, aren't you?
Yeah. I'm really Lupin.
Somehow I doubt it... If you're really Lupin, why did you give in so easily?
You haven't arrested me yet. You have no authority to do so.
What are you talking about? Can't you see this?
As you know, Pops, the warrants from Interpol have been required to have...
...authentic watermark printed on special paper since the birth of the agency.
What? I see no watermark anywhere.
That means you have also been tricked into coming here, just like us.
Damn it! I will call Interpol right away...
...and ask for a real warrant.
Wait, Pops. We can't do much at sea.
Our adversary will move first.
So?
So, let's shake hands, Pops.
With you? For what?
Why don't we join forces to defeat our enemies for now?
Then, you can concentrate on arresting me? How's that?
Well, sounds reasonable.
But how do we find out who our enemies are?
Let's just enjoy this super-deluxe trip, pretending we know nothing.
They'll take the initiative and we'll unveil them.
I see.
If you agree...
...will you shake my hand?
Hey! The ceiling is getting lower.
The ceiling?!
Jump for your life!
What?
