"The Lost Ship In The Sky" plot is underway as the Greed are getting themselves involved as they make plans on how to get their Core Medals back while plotting to keep O's busy so that he won't interfere in their plans, while Ankh seem to have agendas of his own just to get HIS Core Medals back, while the Phantom Thief himself, Kaito Kuroba, makes an appearance to give his response to Jirokichi Suzuki's "challenge".

Later that night, Kaito Kuroba is watching the news on TV about Jirokichi's "challenge" about daring him to go invade the airship and steal the Lady Sky jewel, which he finds it interesting, but then the Phantom Thief became more interested and intrigued when Jirokichi showed the Core Medals and noticed the ones that belonged to Ankh, and there he opens the drawer of his room where the Hikuidori Medal is kept. He knew that Ankh will personally, and physically, get involved knowing he will go after the Core Medals that belonged to him.

"Hmm...I still can recall how I got my hands on this and why it led me to discover why Shinichi Kudo got possessed by that mystical monster..."

Kaito then recalls how and where he got the Hikuidori Medal and how he acquired it before returning to Japan, which brought him back certain memories of his trip at a foreign country.

-FLASHBACK-

The scene shifts to the time where Kaito was in Europe, and the scene shifts to a place near the seaside of Murmansk in Russia, where Kaito Kuroba, aka the Phantom Thief, is running away from his pursuers, who are mercenaries and hunting dogs, as he is running off with a medium-sized chest which contained "unearthed coins" which was dug by the diggers working for Charsu Munutsu. As it turns out, Munutsu stole a map from an elderly Japanese man named Karu Furedurikuse, who wished to travel to Europe to find a "hidden treasure" in hopes of using it to convert them into money to replenish his savings as it was depleted due to "hard times" but Munutsu had his men stole it from him and now he succeeded in finding it.

Having learned of this incident after coming into contact with Furedurikuse, and after learning the story, Kaito followed Munutsu to Russia to steal the chest and bring it to its original treasure hunter and managed to get a head start after pouring pepper which temporarily impairs the dogs' senses as well as making them sneeze. Hiding on a very high tree, Kaito checks on the chest's contents which he finds it strange: it contains about 50 silver coin-like items and a red-colored one, which appeared to be Cell Medals, and the red one which has a symbol of a cassowary bird, indicating that it is a Core Medal.

-END FLASHBACK-

After recalling that moment, and thinking carefully, a thought hit him and he began to open his laptop and opens his yahoomail account and typed an e-mail message to someone, while glancing at the red-colored Core Medal, sensing that he is about to embark on a very "exciting" moment he has never felt for several months. He is sure he won't regret what he is about to do.

Two days later, Jirokichi receives an e-mail message as well as a letter, which came from the Phantom Thief Kid and both he and Sonoko read it, and the 70-yer old wealthy businessman is "overjoyed", as the letter and the e-mail message stated that the Phantom Thief has accepted the challenge and that he will enter the airship once it approaches and passes Osaka prefecture.

"Wow...so he did accepted your challenge..."

"YES! HE HAS BITE THE BAIT! NOW I CAN GET THINGS GOING AND LURE HIM ONTO MY TRAP! FINALLY I'M GOING TO GET THE FAME THAT HAS ELUDED ME FOR SO LONG!"

"And I get to see the handsome thief...I bet when he gets me...he'll de-virginize me...Oh! I'm going to be his "first"..."

"THAT WON'T HAPPEN! I WON'T LET THAT ELUSIVE BASTARD MAKE A MOVE ON YOU!"

"Aw..."

After cautioning his niece on fawning over a very elusive thief, a jubilant Jirokichi now puts his plans in motion as he prepare both the "Lady Sky" and the Core Medals, placing them on the table, in which he intends to use them s baits to lure out the Phantom Thief out in the open and then trap him. He then told his workers to start tuning up the airship as his "confrontation" will be set up in the next two days, but he is unaware that the Phantom Thief Kid isn't the only one who will "crash in", but also some "uninvited guests".

Meanwhile, at their hideout, using Ankh's methods thought to him by Kazari, Uva, accompanied by Mezeru, uses one of the I-Phones he stole several weeks ago to locate Jirokichi's residence where the airship is about to leave, and he finally found the address. He and Mezeru came up with a plan on getting their Core Medals back, while at the same time planning on how to keep O's and Ankh busy so that they won't be able to board the airship and reclaim his Core Medals, assuming that they might get themselves involved.

"Looks like we found the place...are you sure we shouldn't go in there and grab them...?"

"No...it would attract Ankh's attention and in turn would bring O's in..."

"Bah...!"

"At least we can get a head-start once my plans are set...by now Gameru is about to keep him busy...so then...shall we...?"

"Fine..."

After that, the two Greed, assuming their human forms, head out to Jirokichi's home so they can survey the area and make "arrangements" on "setting the stage" so they can shift the tide to their favor.

Elsewhere, the scene shifts to the streets where Kyuji and Hiroshi are doing some errands and have just left the supermarket so that they would head home and make preparations for tonight's dinner. The two discussed about the upcoming "event" involving Jirokichi and Ankh intending to go there to get his Core Medals back, as well as the possibility of the other Greed invading the airship as their Core Medals are there.

"So...are you going to join in...?"

"Yes...I have to keep an eye on Ankh...he could do something reckless as he tends to leave Shinichi's body behind..."

"But...with Shiho and Ran there...I'm sure Mr. Ankh can behave himself...after you convinced him that he'll get his medals back once the thief is captured..."

"But...I'm also worried...the other Greed might get involved since their Core Medals are there too..."

"But you don't have to...they don't know where Suzuki lives...and they'll show up once the airship is moving..."

"I guess you're right..."

"So no worried, then...?"

"I guess...huh?"

By then, Gameru, in his Greed form, shows up, demanding his Core Medals (which are the Sai, Gorilla, and Zou) and warned that he'll get "serious", in which Kyuji refuses, and tells him to go home and never come back, which the professor sighed seeing that kind of bluff won't work.

"You! Give me my Core Medals! Give them back or I get serious!"

"Gameru! Go home! Leave us alone and don't come back!"

"Um...Kyuji...I don't think that would work..."

"Me will repeat this...give me back my Core medals! They're mine!"

"I refuse!"

"You be sorry...!"

When Kyuji still refuses, an upset Gameru then produces a Cell Medal and inserts it onto his forehead and spawns a Yummy, which then "molts" and spawns into the Impala Yummy, who immediately charges at Kyuji, narrowly misses him which the teen vagabond instinctively puts on the O-Driver around his waist and puts in the following Core Medals:

- Lion

- Gorilla

- Zou

He then took the O-Scanner and "scans" the medals to initiate the transformation.

O-Scanner: "LION...GORILLA...ZOU!"

Light and energy envelops the vagabond as he is encased in his armored form of O's, but this time he assumes a "sub-combo" where his helmet has the yellow lion's mane, silver-colored armored gorilla gauntlets and armored elephant feet, while the rest of his armor is black. his chest crest shows the three animal-types used, and he has assumed the form of "Ra-Go-Zo".

"My Core Medals!"

"Come and get them, you stupid monster!"

"RRRAAGGHH!"

Gameru angrily charges at O's and uses his brute strength to match O's gorilla arms and the two were evenly matched, keeping each other at bay until the Impala Yummy joins the fray, ramming O's from behind with its antlers and this allows the Greed to deliver some devastating cheap shots.

"Ooof!"

"Get him! Beat him up until he drops my medals!"

"Darn!"

The two monsters continued to gang up on O's and he thought fast as he needed to find an opening and realize what he should do. Tapping on the Lion Medal's power, O's helmet, still in the form of a lion, shines brightly, which causes the two to be blinded and Gameru is forced to run away.

"RRRAAAGGGHHHH"

"AAIIIEE! MY EYES! SO BRIGHT!"

The Impala Yummy covered his eyes and attempts to ram his prey but O's uses the Gorilla Arms to block off the assault and uses the "Lion Head" aura to disorient the Yummy further, then punches him back, sending the monster careening against a parked car, and there O's took the O-Scanner and "scans" the Core Medals.

O-Scanner: "SCANNING CHARGE!"
O's helmet shines brightly and the Yummy is blinded and there O's charges at the Yummy and uses both his arms to deliver a powerful punch as they act as a pair of "rockets", which both Gorilla Arms were launched towards the target, and destroys the monster, finally ending the problem and there he noticed that Gameru has fled from the scene. Removing the Core Medals, Kyuji reverted back to normal and he is joined by Hiroshi and the two leaves the scene before someone sees them at the scene of the battle, which leaves a broken car at its wake.

Back at the Agasa House, Shiho is working on how to make a formula based from her previous experiments, and hoped that she might come up with a way of bringing Shinichi out of his coma should Ankh regains his Core Medals, anticipating that he might abandon the detective's body should the Greed regain his original form. She doesn't know why, but she is starting to get worried about what might took place once the Phantom Thief Kid is captured and the Core Medals back in Ankh's hands.

"I don't know why…but why do I feel that something like that scenario would become a possibility…even though Kyuji and I managed to convince him to behave…once the airship takes off from the Suzuki Mansion…"

Shiho 's concern over that possible scenario popped in to her mind as the day is drawing near, as she recalled how Ankh can be unpredictable when he first made it appear that he is willing to work with his fellow Greed and abandon Kyuji, which fortunately, was just a ploy. However, with the Core Medals on the line, she wondered if Ankh would really abandon Shinichi's body or not.

Shiho then went to the room upstairs where Kyuji and Ankh are staying and saw Shinichi's body on bed, his hair color black again but is not moving. She sighed as Ankh has detached himself from the detective's body and went somewhere within the house and checked on Shinichi's body, seeing that Ankh hasn't taken bath since last night. She'll have to sermon the Greed on "personal hygene".

"Geez, Shinichi...I wonder if you are aware of your surroundings if Ankh isn't attached to you..."

Shiho stripped Shinichi's comatose body until he is clad in his brief and took a small basin with water and a washcloth and started cleaning him. Since Professor Agasa took her in, she sees him first as a reluctant ally, but as the months paased by she slowly started to feel some affections towards him, even giving hints of her feelings towards him only to claim it was just a joke.

However, in the recent months, when Ankh took control of Shinichi's near-dying body to keep it alive, and meeting Kyuji, she is now starting to work closely with him just to keep Ankh in check so as to keep the Greed from doing reckless acts while inhabiting Shinichi's body. Litlle by little, she is starting to build a rapport with the teen vagabond. Now she is not sure if she is teasing Shinichi or not regarding her feelings for him, and wondered if she should ask Kyuji for some advice since she knows that Ran is in love with Shinichi yet Shinichi himself hasn't cofirm on his reciprocation towards Ran.

"Maybe...I should ask Kyuji whether I stop teasing Shinichi or not..."

However, Ankh's "monster right-forearm form" is right behind Shiho, his finger touched her head and read her mind, and uses this as an opportunity to poke fun and to get even at her.

"Ah...so you have feelings for him...too bad that human has feelings for that long-haired wench..."

"Ankh! Since when did you...?"

"Give him up...he sees you as a sibling-type..."

"I know..."

"If you want me to keep this from him...stop teasing me...fair trade?"

"Fine..."

By then, Ran came and is rather appalled at the sight of seeing a near-naked Shinichi with Shiho siting next to him.

"Shiho! What are you doing to Shinichi?"

"She intends to molest him...she's about to strip her underwear when I stopped her..."

"What? Ankh! You..."

"See...she's looking forward to "play" with his birdie while no one is around...she's a hentai...a very smart hentai..."

"Ran...don't listen to him...he's..."

"You brown-haired harlot for a hentai! Come here!"

"Hey! Let go of my hair!"

"AAIIIYYAAHH!"

"Don't hit me!"

Kyuji and Agasa arrived and saw the ruckus, and the professor started to pry the two girls apart, while Kyuji figured out that Ankh instigated the "girl fight", as Ankh "flashes" a "V-sign" to mark his successful revenge on both Shiho and Ran.

"Ankh...you didn't have to...why did you do that?"

"To get even on those two wenches...especially the long-haired one beating me up! And the other making herself look cute makes me puke! Now seeing them beating each other up makes my day! Ahh...victory for me! Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!"

To Be Continued…

Looks like the die is cast and Jirokichi is all set to make another try to lure and trap the Phantom Thief Kid. Will he succeed this time?

And a comic relief scene in the end with Ankh causing Ran and Shiho to fight over a misunderstanding caused by Ankh's lying.

But expect Ankh to get his once the two girls stop fighting and finds out that they've been had...

Preview:

The airship begins its "maiden voyage" as the guests are joining in while the Detective Boys and Ankh are going on a "sightseeing", though the Greed is going to make an attempt to get his Core Medals back.
