Take Heed of the Snake in the Grass.

1 Oh, what's wrong? You're sweating like a pig.
Heeeeey! Come on, a Hero of justice shouldn't be running away.

Thanks to Origami Cyclone's infiltration, we've located Jake's hideout.
Excellent work, Heroes! I knew we could count on you! Sweet.
Ninja stars to go with your ninja outfit, eh? Bang.
Okay! We're busting in there together, right? No.
We shouldn't go charging in while they're holding the city hostage.
We have to be cautious until we figure out how the enemy is controlling the powered exosuits.
So we wait until Origami reports in? Yeah.
We'll be on standby near the hideout.
Maybe we should scout out the enemy's hideout beforehand, just to be safe.
Yeah.
I'll volunteer for that.
But Please, let me go.
I promised the people that I would catch Jake.
I have to do whatever I can.
Very well.
Let's let Barnaby handle this.
I'm sure he'll succeed.
Thanks.
Bunny, I'm coming with you.
That'd be too conspicuous.
I'll go in alone.
But if you go berserk again in front of Jake Please, just trust me.
Barnaby, the film crew can't accompany you.
Make sure you get some good footage on your helmet's camera.
Roger.
Any info on Jake's powers? The Justice Bureau's database describes Jake as a NEXT with extremely lethal powers, but that's all we know.
That's it? Aren't there any records from fifteen years ago, when Legend arrested him? For some reason, there aren't any details.
I see.
I'm going in.
We're counting on you.
Where's Tiger? Huh? He was just here.
It's him! Why're you here? I caught Jake! You can relax.
Wait, please! He's You see? They fell for it.
Just like you said, Master Jake.
Jake! Let's see You must be Wild Tiger, a.
k.
a.
"Mr.
Collateral Damage.
" You're a dipshit, just like it says.
Was it you? Did you kill my parents?! Huh? Answer me! You think I remember the details? I've killed way too many for that! You bastard! Wait, Bunny! Don't get so riled up.
If I took you out now, it'd spoil my fun, y'know? What the hell was that?! They let Jake get away?! Yes.
We still don't know where he went.
H-How could you let this happen?! I'll be held responsible for this! Why did you charge in like that?! Well, you activated your power, so I thought you'd gone berserk.
He had a PDA on his wrist.
Eh? You knew it was Origami? Do you have any clue how long I've waited for a chance like this? Because of you, Jake got away! Why did you show up back there? I thought I asked you to let me handle it alone? W-Well I was a little worried.
Why? Why didn't you trust me?! I was starting to think I could trust you as a partner! But I won't trust anyone who won't trust me.
Wait! Who are you?! Hey! Master Jake? Where'd Jake go?! Find him at all costs! That is a direct order from the Mayor! What should we do, sir? The only choice left is releasing Chuckman and using him as a decoy to track down Jake.
No need for that.
Jake! Why are you here? Like I'd run away.
And, well, poor Chuckman's already been released for good.
Why'd I kill him? I don't have any use for a weakling who gets captured that easily.
You came all this way to say that? A detour.
Master Jake came to deliver a message.
A message? NEXT are the most advanced beings in this world.
But recently, there're those who're letting themselves be used by inferior beings.
Being reduced to the silly sideshow called "Heroes".
They're an embarrassment to all NEXT.
So, on behalf of all NEXT, I'll wreck them all! Could you prepare a live broadcast? If you listen to our request, we won't sink the city just yet.
What're you planning? Oh, just a little show.
I can't believe you! Jake escaped because you got in Barnaby's way? You call yourself a team? It's true.
I said we were a team, but in the end, I didn't have faith in him.
Good day, Hero-loving citizens of Sternbild.
We're hosting a special live broadcast of Master Jake's Special Seven Matches.
"Seven Matches?" And now, for a special message! I'll show you how weak the Heroes you believe in really are.
The rules are simple.
Heroes will be picked at random to take turns battling Master Jake one-on-one.
What?! If any Hero beats me, I'll call off all of the powered exosuits.
I'll release the city.
But if all of the Heroes lose? I'll just have to collapse the city.
You heard him! The fate of this city now rests with the Heroes.
Well then, good luck! What're they thinking?! He's insane! He kills his own man, and then this?! This is really convenient.
Huh? I'll defeat him one-on-one, with no one to get in my way.
I'll now announce who will take part in the first match.
The honor of being the challenger in the first match goes to Bingo The King of Heroes, Sky High! The top dog, right off the bat? Man, what a letdown! On my honor as the King of Heroes, I will accept his challenge! Be careful.
He shoots beams with his power.
Beams? I saw him firing laser beams.
They were powerful enough to pierce through thick walls.
There's no need to worry.
No matter how terrible his power, it's meaningless if he can't hit me.
I swear to apprehend him, and bring him to you.
GO NEXT! First in taste, pepsi NEX! Damn it.
I can't believe we have to give in to their stupid demands and air this.
What're you talking about? Things are getting interesting.
Huh? It's going to start.
Huh Did you use a different soup stock? You can tell?! The right stock's vital for good miso soup.
Here he comes! Our ace, Sky High, is on the scene! Jake, the evildoer threatening the peace of Sternbild! Now that I've arrived, your fate is sealed! Huh? What's with that jerk's attitude?! You evildoer threatening the peace of Sternbild— Can it.
Come at me, bro.
Very well! But be warned! Today, my wind speed is off the scale! With the fate of Sternbild hanging in the balance The game's about to begin.
Huh? Hey! Let the first match begin! Jet Boy makes the first move! He unloads a barrage of attacks! I'll defeat him without giving him the chance to counterattack.
It's just begun, but Master Jake's already in a pinch! Go, Sky High! Get him! Sky High! SKYYYYYYY HIIIIIGH! Oh, no! Master Jake's been hit! All right! Way to go! He did it! You challenged the wrong man.
Now, surrender! I felt that, King.
How can you stand after taking so many hits? Huh? You didn't land a single one! Checkmate.
Jake doesn't shoot beams.
He's making barriers! What? Barriers? That was your King? What a letdown.
The King of Heroes lost No way Makes barriers? What does he mean? He uses his defensive barriers to attack.
It seems someone jumped to conclusions.
Hey, they're pulling the next card.
I choose This one.
"The Bull Tank of the West Coast"? Looks weak.
Weakling! Cocky bastard! You'll eat those words Rock Bison, he's an incredibly powerful NEXT.
Be careful.
Ms.
Agnes, now that I know his power, he's mine.
I'll smash his barriers with brute strength! We're counting on you.
And now for the second match.
How will the Tank Man fare? And there he goes! Hey hey, come on! That all you got?! There's no one who can handle you, Master Jake.
All right! Let's keep it going! Alright! That dipshit who's always paying off damages, huh? He won't last a second.
Might as well draw the next one, too.
Making fun of me I drew them together.
They really are a team.
Be seeing ya.
I'm going to check on my suit.
Don't bother getting ready.
I'll end it here.
Hey I know, I screwed up.
I'm sorry.
I have to tell them.
Hey, Ninja! I had a great idea.
Turn into me.
He has hostages, so I had to do what he said.
Never mind that.
What did you find out about the powered exosuits? I'm getting to that, sir.
Transforming into Chuckman and sneaking in Time to learn what happens when you don't take us seriously.
Destroy the support columns, my cute little teddy bears.
Hey, not so fast.
The stuffed animals controlling the powered exosuits follow her orders.
She used a communicator whenever she gave her orders.
Then if we can jam that signal We can prevent the powered exosuits from receiving orders.
Good work! Let's begin placing signal jammers all over the city! Yes.
Signal jamming? This'll save people's lives! However, It'll take until tomorrow morning.
Try to hold out until then! I understand.
Look who's here.
It's the damage fine dipshit.
You call yourself the "Crusher of Justice"? You don't live up to the name.
Care to test that? Tiger, brute strength won't be enough to break through Jake's barriers.
Then I'll take him down with speed! Now, for the third match Master Jake versus Mister Doofus begin! Too slow, too slow.
Hey, give me a lift.
There's nowhere to run, sir.
Just give me a lift! I can't rely on Heroes anymo— All the more reason why I can't give you a lift.
You just bad-mouthed my friend.
Kotetsu You're worried about Tiger? No.
I'm gathering information in preparation for the next battle.
You're saying Tiger's going to lose? Hiding behind your barriers like that What are you, a shut-in?! Big talk, coming from a wuss hopping around like a retard.
Asshole! Good Luck! Ability Time Out! Haven't learned a thing, have you? Why can't I hit you? You don't have a chance against me.
I can hear everything.
Powers exhausted in ten seconds.
Already? Calm down, Kotetsu Kaburagi.
There's a way to break through.
Three Two One Ooh, too bad.
Nice try.
He can't take an attack without his Hundred Power! Hey, you're shitting me, right? Bang! It's hopeless! Just give up! Like I'd ever give up.
I can't go down here.
C'mon, you still don't get that it's useless? Huh? He hit him That hurt.
You've done it now.
That hurt, you fucker! Damn it! Eat this! We can't air this! Cut to a commercial! Yes, ma'am! What kind of shitty kick was that, huh? Fuck you, Kotetsu! You think you can kick me?! If they keep losing at this rate, we won't last until tomorrow morning.
Alright! The next Hero ready yet? Jake Martinez Huh? What's up? Why don't we take a break? Huh? You can't tell me what to do! Such an exciting show can't run all night long.
Huh? Ratings are low at night.
Wouldn't that be a waste of such a good show? Hmm I like your style, woman.
Okay, it's break time! Way to go, Ms.
Agnes! Using ratings as an excuse to buy us the time we need to jam their signal! I've never seen ratings like these.
There's nothing we can do against his barriers.
Hey, your match is tomorrow morning! That's right! He beat Tiger! Your Hundred Power won't stand a chance, either! Deep lacerations all over his body! Heart rate is dropping! Stop the bleeding, quickly! Prepare for a blood transfusion! In the distant future, if I become a fossil Boku ga kie tooi mirai de kaseki ni nattara Hito wa boku ni nani wo miru darou What would people see in me? Bunseki shite na wo tsukete kaidoku wo shitemo And even if I get analyzed, classified and deciphered Aishita hito wa boku shika shiranai Only I will know who I loved Hey there life Hello ikiru koto Kimi no hoka ni kimi wa dekinai Only you can be you Kagayaki tsuzukeru hikatta hoshi kara From the bright star that still glitters Kagayaki tsuzuke hikatta ano sora kara From that bright sky that still glitters Bokura wa nani wo kanjirareru darou What can we feel? Kiseki wa uchuu dake janai yo Miracles aren't limited to the universe Kagayaki tsuzukeru hikatta hoshi kara From the bright star that still glitters Kagayaki tsuzuke hikatta ano sora kara From that bright sky that still glitters Even if i close my eyes it's not enough Me wo tojitatte tojikirenai yo Ano hoshi sae motenakatta My heart couldn't even get Kokoro that star Good morning! So, did you shitheads in Sternbild sleep well in your crapsack city? Please wait, Master Jake, I don't have my makeup on.
So, continuing where we left off yesterday! What? It's boring because the Heroes are all wusses? Well, have I got good news for you! After the next match, we'll be halfway done.
So let's say if he loses half the city gets destroyed.
Does that fire you up? Hi! I'm Barnaby, the member of "Tiger and Bunny" who uses two tissues at once.
The day has finally come.
I will defeat Jake with my own power! Next time, on Tiger & Bunny: See you!
