Turn right.
The hallway just ahead has your way out.
I'm cutting the power now.
The barrier will open for 5 seconds.
Zai.
Higan.
Zai
Mari is dead.
Did Yamaji order her killed?
Those who try to cheat death
still remain in its shadow.
You will die.
Zai!
This doesn't seem like the kinda place
where an ex-AUZA employee would live.
Are you absolutely sure he's here?
That's definitely the place.
The guy didn't accomplish much
during his time at AUZA,
so he wasn't highly regarded
as a researcher or anything like that.
But considering he went out of his way
to find a hiding spot,
don't you think he knows something?
If this turns out to be a bust,
I expect you to dig up another lead.
Don't forget I treated you to dinner.
Of course.
And then you'll treat me
to another one, right?
Anyway,
it's a safe bet that the FBI's top brass
have started keeping tabs on you.
So only contact me
for emergencies from now on.
Yeah, I know.
All right. Take care.
Got any games that aren't busted?
Huh? Who are you?
You must be Jason Cardenas.
An error in the system caused
the barrier to go down
for a brief span of five seconds.
It is highly likely that
this was premeditated
based on the lack of hesitation
in his movements.
And the cause of the error?
Still being analyzed.
I suspect he may have
had help on the inside.
Hah! Who gives a crap about that.
Let's use this chance to stick it to him.
And show all the exiled ninjas
what kind of fate they have in store.
Our plans will not change.
Higan's secret art remain unknown.
It would be unwise
to attack him recklessly.
Well then, how about this for a plan?
We let him into the city.
All of our forces are here.
His secret art won't mean squat if he gets
swarmed and beaten to a bloody pulp.
Fighting him in the city
is too high of a risk.
Any deaths or damage that result
will then reflect poorly on
AUZA's reputation as a whole.
And who's to blame
for that security error, huh?
Come now, don't start bickering!
Personally, I like the idea.
I don't mind taking all the blame
for any problems it may cause!
Very well.
Shall we lead him to the test room in HQ?
That's perfect!
Fighting him is gonna provide us
with the best data we could possibly get!
I have an update.
It seems the organization
has decided to let you into the city.
It's a trap, obviously.
They're sending their most skilled ninjas
who serve as lieutenants to eliminate you.
You will almost certainly die
fighting against them.
Don't fall for it.
No, I'm going.
I will kill Yamaji
and then make sure everyone in the
organization gets what they deserve.
That's why I came here.
And this may be the only chance I get.
Make your move at 7 PM.
The city has planned for a parade
to start around then.
It's going to be the camouflage
for their fight against you.
I wish you the best.
S-so are you here
to r-rat me out to AUZA for money?
Look, I ain't gonna do that.
I just need your help
with my investigation.
So tell me what you know
and then I'll leave.
Nobody should have been able
to figure out who I was.
Did I not use enough layers?
Unless, could it be the
whole p-protocol got cracked?
Oh, God, I'm doomed!
Now this game takes me back.
I used to play it all the time as a kid.
Huh?
Move it outta the way, would ya?
Bingo.
So, what's this supposed to be?
Three! Two! One!
I see.
You've got a huge server room set up
down here for all your hacking needs.
I'm g-gonna bring the whole thing down.
I'll end that company.
Those bastards won't get away
with how they treated me!
I won't stand for it!
Voluntary resignation, my ass!
They hounded me into quitting!
Dammit, dammit, dammit, dammit!
Sounds like a personality problem to me.
No! Those pricks were just envious of me!
And so you set this all up
-Dammit!
-to get revenge, eh?
he wasn't highly regarded as
a researcher or anything like that.
Guess that was wrong.
I'm p-positive that company
is knee deep in sh-shady business!
But since nobody believes me,
I'm gonna dig up their secrets and p-put
them out there for the world to see!
I believe you.
I wanna see you go through with it.
Cuz I'm just as interested
in taking AUZA down.
You can hack your way
into their servers, right?
N-no way.
AUZA's security is no joke.
I'd be totally s-screwed if they-
It's all right.
I'll keep you safe.
J-just keep in mind, I can't take down
their servers or anything.
Not a problem.
Information is all that we're after.
Go for it.
This is the
Technical Development Department's server.
Well now
Based on the date, this must be
the most recent research report.
Looks like the stuff they
typically report to investors.
Nothing special here.
L-let's look deeper
Right.
What about this?
It's the system source code
Not the kind of data we want.
Try looking elsewhere.
Okay, how about here?
It's one of their
internal network servers.
Y-you'd be surprised what kinda stuff
they leave on these things.
"Bound"?
A list of employees?
Or maybe customer info?
No. Those are social security numbers
to identify people.
And prices
A-are they buying up
fake identities or what?
Yeah.
That's pretty common
for big companies to do.
They use them to plant spies.
"Bound" seems to be the name
of a corporate spy org.
There's info on their admin here, too.
Yahoo! Th-that proves it!
AUZA is corrupt as hell!
None of this data is
about the ninjas, though.
Guess it's never that easy
Emma?
What's her name doing on this list?
Someone you know?
Yeah
I b-bet it's just somebody
with the same name.
What does this mean
Oh, crap! They're onto us!
AUZA's shutting me out!
And now we've got company!
Friggin' hell
Guess the FBI must've ratted on me.
J-just who the hell were those guys?!
Probably some mercs
that were hired by AUZA.
What the?!
Aw man, not my hideout! Dammit!
The hell is going on?
Crap! They're on our tail!
Can't we go any faster than this?!
This is the fastest
your hunk of junk car can go
Aw hell.
Slam the brakes!
You're a real sharpshooter!
Get down!
I've been looking forward to this!
And just like I figured
seeing your eyes in person
gets me all hot and bothered!
I'm impressed that you made it up here.
Come on. Let's see what you've got.
Start the test!
Yamaji
YAMAJI!
Oh, please.
Those OG ninja tricks of yours
are beyond obsolete.
YAMAJI!
I love you.
Just wait
Never do it again.
It will kill you next time.
I'll be with you soon.
This is the moment I've been waiting for!
Come on, let me hear
your cute little squeals!
There you ar-
Huh?
The quiet lake gleams
in the morning sun
Sorry to interrupt.
But he's going to be
MY BITCH!
Nice pass!
Meh. This was a boring fight.
Are we done already?
Do you get it now?
The path to Hell
that you are on is inescapable.
Yamaji
Yamaji
Yamaji
This is the end of the line.
