With the Fuji Maru cruise liner leaving Hokkaido Island, the ship's maiden voyage has commenced and about 30 minutes after leaving, it is now passing by Etorufu Island, where the passengers are marveling at the scenery with dolphins showing up while the rich patrons and guests, as well as the local passengers, are enjoying the ship's ambience and are having fun.


Anything Goes by Maki Oghuro
(Opening Song from Kamen Rider OOO)

(You count the medals 1,2 and 3
Life goes on Anything goes Coming up OOO)

ira nai mota nai yume mo mi nai
furii na joutai sore mo ii kedo
(kokkara hajimaru The show we're waiting for
Count the medals 1, 2 and 3 )
unmei wa kimi hanattoka nai
kekkyoku wa susumu shika nai
(michi naru tenkai Give me energy Count the medals 1, 2 and 3)

daijoubu. ashita wa itsu datte hakushi (Blank)
jibun no kachi wa jibun de kimeru mono sa

OOO! OOO! OOO! OOO! Come on!

Anything Goes! sono kokoro ga atsuku naru mono
mitasa reru mono o sagashi te
Life goes on! honki dashi te tatakau no nara
makeru ki shi nai hazu!


35: Iede Shōjo, Shitīhantā, Kurūzu-sen part 5

As the first hour passed by, everything within the cruise liner is peaceful with no untoward incident as the maiden voyage of the ship is slowly taking its course, save for a certain someone who is getting rather impatient and his "partner" had to keep him in line as he is eager to find something he seek since this is the reason why he went all the trouble just to sneak on board the cruise liner.

"I hate this! I didn't come here just to go "sightseeing"!"

"Just deal with it. We can't act prematurely or else we'll be detained and we'll lose the chance to find the chest…if it contained the other Core Medals…and we are supposed to find that girl…"

"You make it sound so easy…why did I have to agree with your suggestion?"

"Trust me on this, Ankh…patience is important…I promise we'll get those medals when given the right moment…"

"I wish a Yummy and/or a Greed would show up…I want to kill time…"

"Be careful on what you wish for, Ankh…"

Kyuji has to keep Ankh in line as the Greed is eager to scour the entire ship just to find the chest where the medals he suspected are hidden, reminding him that they are stowaways and if the crew finds out about it they will be detained thus they would miss the chance of finding the medals which irritated the Greed, slowly realizing the logic in his "pawn's" words.

"…I tell you, Ankh…we can't rush things…"

"Grr…fine…only on your intuition…"

"Since you have Detective Kudo's body…why not use his memories to do some deduction skill-making if you want to kill time…"

"Don't you push me…"

"I'm just…"

"Well…looks like I can finally kill time…"

Reluctantly, Ankh did what Kyuji asked him to, and fastened his lust for medals and is forced to walk around just to kill time, with Kyuji beside him, and as they stroll around, both came across the entertainment room and there the Greed saw a freezer where several ice cream bars are stored, and this is good news for Ankh as he took about three of them without hesitation while Kyuji is forced to pay them so as not to get into trouble.

"Heh…at least this would help ease my boredom…"

"It's a good thing Imumura provided us money…or else we'll definitely get into to trouble…"

"Here…take one…you'll be needing the energy later on once darkness comes…then we will take advantage of it to find the chest and the medals…"

"Don't forget we're here to find the girl…"

"Fine…you find her…"

The two again bicker yet it wasn't too loud and fortunately it didn't attract attention.

-x-

Elsewhere within the cruise liner, Ryo Saeba decided to sneak out of the luggage compartment and began commencing his search for Shizuko, but to his dismay, he lost his wallet that contained the money he brought to buy food, and without it, he'll be very hungry and would impede his search for the daughter of Koji Imumura. Left with no choice, he'll have to settle for leftovers left by the passengers who finished their food.

"Geez…I didn't anticipate that this would be so much troublesome…"

As he searches for any leftover food, Ryo accidentally walks into the ship's first officer and is recognized as a stowaway, resulting in a chase, as he is the one who denied Ryo access to board nearly an hour ago and realized that the City Hunter sneaked his way in and now he'll have to apprehend and detain him.

"You! How did you get on board! You were denied entry!"

"Wait…I can explain!"

"Explain after we docked at Tokyo and talk to the police!"

"I don't have time for this!"

"Men! Arrest him!"

"Yes, sir!"

"We'll get you!"

"You won't cause problem here!"

Within minutes several crew members chase him around, yet he managed to elude them by hiding among a few passengers sunbathing and lying on a bench near the pool. The crew members are baffled as to how they lost sight of him and the first officers urged the crew not to tell the captain of this as he did not want to cause trouble for the passenger.

"Where did he go?"

"He disappeared!"

"Don't stop! Keep finding him!"

"Yes, sir!"

"Let's split up!"

And so the crew members and the first captain split up to find the stowaway before an untoward incident might take place and that is something they wanted to avoid.

-x-

Much later, Ryo searches for food and finds an unattended brownie and is about to take it when the crew members and the first officer found him and the chase re-commences, and soon the City Hunter is once again on the run. He gets a reprieve by grabbing a tray and a drink and poses as a waiter, which puts his pursuers on hold as they are unwilling to cause a commotion. After getting far, he ran off and there his pursuers continued their chase.

"After him…but don't let the passengers notice that there is trouble…getting into a hostage situation is something we can't afford to happen…!"

"Yes, sir!"

"We'll be careful!"

Getting exhausted due to hunger, Ryo thought fast and he hides within the ship's horn, but a crew member sees him and sounds the horn off, temporarily deafening him. Although disoriented, he managed to slip past his pursuers and gets away, trying to regroup and regain his senses. The crew members and the first officer then scrambled within their area to find him, but to their dismay they realized that he has given them the slip once more.

-x-

Later he encounters Saeko and her sidekick again at the ship's swimming pool, and as he is about to be caught by the first officer and his men, Saeko told them that Ryo is working for her and that she will vouch for him and offered to pay his ticket, but the first officer politely declined, but agreed to her terms as long as Ryo doesn't cause trouble.

After that problem is solved, Saeko approaches Ryo and attempts to seduce him, but then the City Hunter is mesmerized by her beauty, which his deafness compounded his other senses as he mistook her breasts as pork buns, fantasizing her arms as fried chicken wings and then her legs as fried chicken drumsticks, but his fantasizing is interrupted when he bumps into Kaori and her cousin.

There Ryo tried to explain to her about the misunderstanding but his deafness got in the way as she tells him she is willing to forgive him if he stops his flirting.

"If you promise not to flirt with other girls again…I'll forgive you…"

"Sorry…I can't hear you…my eardrums are impaired…"

Thinking he is still womanizing while pretending that he is deaf, she angrily pushes him into the water, curing him of his deafness yet she left in a huff. Saeko sighed as she and her sidekick left the pool area to get dress and looks around for any frolics.

-x-

As the hours passed by, it is nearing darkness as the time now is 17:45, where the scene shifts to the casino part of the entertainment section of the ship as Saeko and her sidekick took part in a performance at the casino before watching a legendary poker player, Kao Ta, win a game. Seako's sidekick is immediately mesmerized by Kao Ta's charms and asked her partner for information about the poker player and there Saeko answered the questions.

"Wow…so handsome…and charming…where is he from…?"

"Taiwan…maybe…his name's Kao Ta. He is a renowned poker player and has an incredible luck as he never loses a match."

"Really…? Maybe I can date him…"

"If you're lucky enough to have him fall for your charms…"

"What if he sets his eyes on you…"

"You wish…"

Kao Ta's opponent is getting irritated that he lost all of his money in betting against the poker player, and he started to feel that something isn't right and began to question his opponent in a bid to get his money back, yet Kao Ta rebutted politely.

"I won fairly…be a good loser…"

"I smell a rat here…men…search him! Kill him if he resists!"

"Yes, boss!"

Suspected of cheating since he never loses, Kao Ta gets in to a fight with his opponent's friends and uses his cards as shuriken to defend himself. As the other casino players backed away, one of the goons took out a knife and is about to stab the poker player, but then Kao Ta is saved by Saeko, as she deflected the attack and crew members arrived and detained the rowdy men, while she explained to the first captain about what happened, thus Kao Ta is off the hook. Kao Ta approached Saeko and thanked her for her help and he gave a card to her as a "good luck charm". Saeko's sidekick teases her which Saeko rebutted.

"Looks like he is heads over hells onto you…"

"You wish…"

"Then why did he give his "good luck charm" to you…? An Ace of Spades of all things?"

"I don't know…"

-x-

Things went relatively peaceful as the cruise liner continued its voyage as the ship is now within Hakodate Island and is about to head for Nansei Island as part of its tour while the scene shifts to Kyuji and Ankh, who are again bickering as the Greed sneaked out several ice cream bars while the scene shifts at another part of the ship as Ryo managed to steal a bread and makes out in eating the small food as he knew that he needed nourishment to keep his body going while wondering where Shizuko is hiding.

-x-

As darkness finally filled the skies, in which the time now is 20:00, the scene shifts to a room where some of the guests are staying, but this group of guests didn't appeared to be guests at all. Just moments ago, an American passenger is seen in this room, doing some martial arts warm-up and moments later, more men, dressed in business attires, arrived and most of them appeared to be of North American and European descents.

"About time you guys got back…I'm getting impatient…when are we going to stake this ship…?"

"In a few minutes…just be a little more patient…we all are itching to bring out our guns…"

"Fine…"

"Everyone…the time has come…and we'll be commencing the greatest heist in our careers…"

"Finally…"

Then an American, also dressed in a business attire, and is wearing eyeglasses, spoke to the American martial artist, while the other men opened their luggage, revealing that they are carrying high-powered weapons. It is soon revealed that earlier in the day when Ankh causes a disturbance at Hokkaido Island, the men carrying the luggage, took advantage of the unmanned bridge and sneaked their belongings in and hid at the room before going out of the ship and stood by the bridge before the guard came and checked their tickets, unaware that the foreign passengers are terrorists in disguise.

The man in glasses then told his men that they will hijack the ship and take the rich passengers hostage while instructing the rest to kill the crew of this ship and make sure all communications within the ship are disabled so that the captain or anyone else won't be able to call for help. The men oblige and are preparing to begin the stake out as they removed their clothes and put on the SWAT-like attire and ski-masks to disguise themselves.

"Okay…while we prepare to trap the guests as they are converging inside the casino area…the rest of you kill the crew of this ship…then disable all communications while the rest of you plant bombs…"

"Got it…"

"We're on it…"

However, the scene shifts to the next room where another passenger is there, who turn out to be Shizuko, and she is listening to the terrorists' conversation after hearing their loud voices, as she is also fluent in understanding and speaking English. Realizing that everyone in this ship is in danger, she decided to try and find a way to warn the captain of the imminent danger.

To Be Continued…
