Ninja Kamui (2024) s01e09 Episode Script
Episode 9
Unbelievable.
And you still heaped
all that praise onto AUZA
despite knowing
they were up to this crap?
I was simply giving credit
where it was due.
They have access to technology that
can turn brilliant ideas into a reality,
as well as the vast research funding
needed to support them.
Putting aside their current scheme,
I believe that AUZA is an enterprise
that's honestly doing humanity
a huge favor.
If you start going on about some kinda
"Iron Ninja" or "Captain Shinobi,"
then I swear to God
Screw that goddamn company!
Why the hell didn't they
let me in on this project?!
As for our plan from here on out,
Higan and I will go around
to every active power plant
and make sure they get shut down,
while simultaneously stealing
the energy supplies
that we need to keep operating.
What will you two do?
Do you even need to ask?
We're going to dig into AUZA
until we find incriminating evidence!
But naturally,
that means we'll end up revealing the
existence of you ninjas to the public.
I'm aware.
I'll give you guys full access
to my computer.
By the way,
there's one thing bothering me
What is it?
Nothing, forget it.
Let's hear it,
otherwise I'm going to send you flying.
Well, it's just, ya know
I can't help but notice that you
started calling Duck here "Higan."
Huh?
So are you two a thing now, or what?
Yeowch!
An outrageous suggestion.
Christ Learn to respect your elders!
You brought it on yourself.
I don't get it.
That big lug let the power plant
get destroyed right in front of him,
so why let him come back?
Engaging Higan in combat
without the Gusoku Gear would be foolish.
Big D made the right call.
And you were able to get data from it.
That should be enough.
That's besides the point!
You were the one who wanted
to speed up the plan, remember?
Except now the members
of the advisory committee
are on the verge of bowing out
because of your brainless ninjas!
Listen up!
Right now,
I'm in the middle of using this world -
or rather this entire planet
as a sort of game.
I exert total control
over people, nature,
and all living creatures
as I change the world.
It's the greatest simulation imaginable!
But if your people keep getting
in my way, then we're through.
So then, this is just
a game to you, is it?
Yeah, that's right!
A game that only I get to play!
We ninjas have a duty.
In essence, that duty is to seek out
the most dangerous
and vile scum on this planet
such as yourself
and then terminate them at any cost.
Never forget that we are simply
overlooking your misdeeds
in the name of an even greater cause.
Is that supposed to be a threat?!
Well, just remember the next time
one of your people screws up
I'm going to make them commit seppuku!
Damn brat can't even tell
a ninja from a samurai.
The time is at hand.
The Izuna circuit
is the heart of the Gusoku Gear.
It's very sensitive and frail.
Which means if you use it
like that vintage motorcycle of yours,
then you'll quickly put it
into a bad mood.
And what happens if I upset it?
Then it will never smile for you again.
You have to be a gentleman.
Just think of it like Mari.
That won't work.
I made her angry all the time.
You've gotta be kidding!
Anyway, that's the gist of how to operate
and maintain the Gusoku Gear.
I'll give you the manual to read,
but it's better to just learn first-hand.
Emma.
This is my problem to deal with.
You've already done
more than enough for me.
Please just stick with Mike
and lend him a hand.
Then find a safe place to stay
when it's all over.
And never tell anyone where you went.
God, I'm so tired of hearing bullcrap
like "it's my problem"
or "I'm the one
who has to take care of it."
Seriously!
Why is it that older guys are always
so quick to grandstand like that?
We're not trying to grandstand
or anything.
It's like I told you before,
in this business
I have a duty to uphold.
So I'm going with you, Higan.
However, I'm also going to help
you two out before I leave.
I know that Jason guy seems likes weirdo,
but his skills are solid.
It shouldn't take long
if both of us work together.
Don't call me a "weirdo."
You know your way around a kitchen, huh?
I borrowed what was left in the stockroom
to whip something up.
Don't go making another one
of your stupid comments.
What brought this on all of a sudden?
D-do I have to explain it?
Throughout history, gangs, yakuza, mafia,
and families have always
shared meals together like this.
Care to explain
why my serving so damn small?!
Isn't that obvious?
It's because you
never contribute anything!
Why I outta
In this business,
your partner is as good as family.
You're another person who I consider
part of my family.
Tell me, what does this apron
of your say, huh?
-Uh, well, ya see
-Must be the kanji for "jackass."
No way!
All right, Mr. Secretary of Energy,
what's this pressing matter
you wanted to talk about?
I want to hear what you have to say
about the explosion at the power plant.
It's exactly as I explained before.
This was an act of sabotage
committed by someone
who got wind of our operational test.
The FBI are hunting them down
as we speak.
Then allow me to visit as an observer
so I can verify the facts.
I'm afraid that's not possible.
I can't risk any chance
of our technology being stolen.
Thorough records of the operational data
have already been provided to you.
I gather that you've more or less
forced the advisory committee
into accepting your bribes
with some saber-rattling,
but you know they can't
just ignore public opinion.
I let the trouble that you've been having
in the city slide, but this is different.
All of you damn people
are nothing but cowards.
What?
Listen, it's our cooperation that has put
your dreams on the verge of coming true.
NO, I'M THE ONE WHO'S MAKING YOUR
FRIGGIN' DREAMS COME TRUE!
You seem to have lost your temper there.
It's one of my few shortcomings.
Now I'm pissed at myself
and all those political hacks.
So, what's Big D doing?
He is currently at a barber shop
in the city.
Get him on the line.
But he requested this time off
on the schedule
This is an emergency!
Shouldn't you answer that?
I treasure my time here
more than anything.
Besides, I already know
exactly what he wants.
And I've taken care of
what needs to be done.
Beauty is where I find the most delight.
And there is no point
to living or fighting
when there is zero delight to be had.
Well, I hope your boss
can understand that.
When pigs fly.
I'm not able to get through to him.
Screw that goddamn bucket head!
I'm very sorry about this, sir.
Please allow me to make it up to you
on his behalf.
Not now, I'm going to go out
for a little bit.
I'll get ready immediately.
You stay here, Dilly.
I'm looking forward to seeing
how you'll make it up to me
after I get back.
Hey, Crow-man!
I rarely ever see you around here.
You know, if I were the boss,
I would've just let you
handle it right away.
What did he come in here for?
Oh, you mean the CEO?
He was here to do a personal check
on the maintenance status
of Big D's Gusoku Gear.
It's the first time he's ever done
something like that.
What's the progress on this one?
Currently at 92%.
It should be completed very soon.
Studying hard, eh?
Anyway, I'm still reeling
from the fact that she's a ninja.
I had absolutely no idea.
Same here.
I worked much closer
with her than you did.
But I never saw a damn thing,
not even once.
Duck
keep Emma safe, ya hear?
Our target is a report stored
on their main server
that contains operational
data on the reactor.
It should include evidence of them
using newly-developed weapons
to secretly intervene
in foreign disputes,
as well as the name
of whoever they report to.
Wh-who could that be?
One of this country's top brass.
That sounds juicy.
AUZA's main server is hosted across
a constellation of independent satellites
that are in low Earth orbit.
Hold on, I got fired while working on
developing that very system.
And now you're saying it's operational?!
Our first step is hacking into that.
I'll teach them for laying
their grubby hands on my work!
I appreciate your business.
Not a single strand of hair out of place.
Your skills are even better
than they were yesterday.
I look forward to
seeing you again tomorrow.
This is the development department.
The maintenance on your Gusoku Gear
has just finished.
Your timing couldn't be more elegant!
N-no freakin' way!
We've already broken past the firewall!
Stay focused.
This is where things get tricky.
I'm taking back my satellites!
Suck on this, you goddamn AUZA pricks!
Did you hear what I said?
I'll drag them down to Hell with me
if I have to!
Get ready to burn, you bastards!
I guess it's true what they say about
"desperation being
like courage for cowards."
Who the hell is that?
A ninja.
But how'd he find us?!
Hurry and equip your Gusoku Gear!
He caught us off guard!
Aw hell! Just when things
were starting to look up!
Emma!
Can I handle any of the weapons
that are in the truck?
Everything that's in there functions
just like modern firearms!
Perfect!
You two stay here.
Let's keep going.
Next stop, all the secret accounts
in the AUZA Banking network!
Literally every dignitary and elite
in the whole country
this list would give the president
a goddamn heart attack!
We're both under
the same limitations now.
Let's do this!
Oh my god. These scumbags
We're almost done! Don't get distracted!
Well, good thing it's so QUIET!
That little fool.
Relax, I didn't send them
to interrupt your party.
Whoa! Whoa! Whoa! Whoa!
That should buy us a little time.
Just how "little" are we talking here?!
About a minute.
Even less if they decide
to use a rocket launcher.
Launcher at the ready!
Not on my watch, assholes.
Aw hell!
Can I leave this to you?
I'm all over it!
Transfer the data over
to my external drive.
It's designed to automatically encrypt
whatever gets stored on it.
Whoa there.
Dammit
Jeez! You're just never gonna
listen to my orders, are you?!
Yeah, no.
I made it to the main server!
External access detected!
Defense programs now activated!
C-crap, they're already onto me!
But
it's too late!
Mike!
MIKE!
Keep Emma safe, ya hear?
The only thing I should be focused on
doing is crushing the organization.
Huh? Wait a minute!
Because that will ultimately free
all the ninjas from their missions.
Guiding Emma to
a better future after that
is your responsibility.
Mike! MIKE!
I've taken kicks from you
that've done more damage!
Don't worry. I ain't dead just yet.
And besides,
you're the one who said you still
have a lot left to learn from me!
Remember?
As long as you're willing
to teach me, boss!
You ready?
Always.
Special delivery!
Go, go, go, go!
Take this, you sons of bitches!
Outstanding!
I'm satisfied.
That was an elegant battle.
You okay?!
Big D!
Aska
Tell me, why would you do something
as ugly as betray us?
I know it may seem like that from
your perspective,
but the truth is that I have never once
betrayed what I truly believed in.
So, you were never
on our side to begin with, eh?
That's a hard truth to swallow,
but a beautiful answer.
Go on! Deal me the final blow!
That little worm!
Just how underhanded can he get?!
EMMA!
Emma!
That goddamn buffoon!
He just never stops ruining my plans!
So this was your doing, sir?
That was supposed to kill all five of
them and instead it only killed one!
Emma!
Higan is Mike okay?
He's fine.
Good I'm s-sorry
Mari
I broke my promise
Hang in there, dammit!
You're going to watch over me
until the end, aren't you?!
Listen, Mike
We're calling an ambulance right now,
so just hold on!
Don't you dare die on me!
Jason!
R-right!
This is my real face
Yeah, well,
nothing surprises me at this point.
I'm sure
you'd never have known it was me,
if we met like this
Change your appearance all you want,
but I'd still know it was you!
I've been in this business
long enough to tell!
But how?
That's something I can teach you later!
Hey, Emma!
I always thought
that when my time came to die
I would definitely be alone
Don't start with that bullshit!
You're not dying here!
Live on, Emma!
I'm so lucky, baby
Cause you are my girlfriend
Hey.
This is precious to you, right?
Don't go losing it.
Oh, thank you.
You know, he kinda looks like you.
Huh? You gotta be crazy!
I'm so lucky, baby!
Cause you are my girlfriend!
Don't laugh at me!
And maybe, you are my one and only!
Tell me
Emma.
Emma!
Emma
Most cocky rookie I ever
worked with, let me tell ya.
She always showed up late
and never listened.
Except at some point,
I found myself thinking
that talking with her
was what it might feel like
if my daughter were still alive.
And so, to me, Emma was like
having a second daughter.
But
There was a guilt that came with it.
Felt like I could never tell her.
Why would you ever think you
were gonna die alone?!
Stupid girl!
I should have just told her, dammit!
Even if you never said it, she knew.
In all my time, I've never seen a ninja
die with that kind of look on their face.
I'm going to dismantle the organization.
Whenever Mari fought,
her goal was always to defend.
I'm putting an end to all of this.
And you still heaped
all that praise onto AUZA
despite knowing
they were up to this crap?
I was simply giving credit
where it was due.
They have access to technology that
can turn brilliant ideas into a reality,
as well as the vast research funding
