Wow, that's really something! I had no idea it was as big as this.
There ain't no second tower.
You're right.
That round area couldn't be the top of the tower, now, could it?
Well in any case, the treasure is buried in that area.
Huh?
Here he comes, here he comes! It's Marciano's entrance!
Marciano is footing the entire bill for this investigation team.
Ah, welcome.
Hi, Tartini.
OK then. We do it after it gets dark, huh?
By the way, Goemon, how do I use this rucksack?
Stop stop stop stop stop!
This is a terrible welcom mat. Praise God! Praise God!
I remember now, old lady Rosetta.
"Score", if memory serves, means "chasm", right?
Which means there's only one more pit!
How's that? Just like I figured!
Rosetta? Are you in there?
Auditory hallucinations.
Lupin... I've been waiting for you.
I'm Rosetta. Long ago... I was dispatched by God...
...and descended to Earth.
If that God comes from the sky every 76 years...
...is his vessel by any chance a comet?
Yes, Lupin. I've been sleeping here all this time.
Every 76 years I awaken, wander the Earth...
...and search for the gold of Babylon.
That's strange.
This thing you call God doesn't even know where the treasure is?
He doesn't. He doesn't know!
Don't cry Rosetta of old...
Get a grip on yourself!
Hiding the secret of the Gold of Babylon in a Mother Goose rhyme...
The Babylonians did some stylish things.
The Gold of Babylon! This is it!
OK, come on! Hang on tight!
OK, let's go!
Dead end!
Success!
This is too much hard work.
So you found it at last!
This is the Gold of Babylon?!
I thank you on behalf of my late father.
Your task is completely finished. Get away from here!
This...This is it, the treasure of Babylon that I've even seen in my dreams!
You said you'd accept gold or diamond bullets, right, Mr. Lupin?
Look!
I went through a lot of trouble to get this.
Lupin die! Me kill!
Well, I dunno about that.
Step aside!
Shoot! Shoot! It's a kite! He's riding a kite! After him!
I'm a kite!
"We cannot stand defeat!"
Catch me if you can!
Morons!
For something built from all the gold in the country...
...it's a little on the small side, you know?
But oh, well, I guess. When I get over there, it'll be huge.
Ladies and gentlemen, over there is the River Tigris...
...and over here is the River Euphrates.
It was here that mankind's first civilization was born...
...going back some 5000 years or more...
Wow! Something strange is coming towards me!
Who-who-who-WHO...?!
...is the bastard who'd do something so nasty?!
It must be you, Fujiko.
How are you going to move it? Where do you plan to take it?
You leave that to me.
Why don't we take it to the ruler of this country?
I'm sure he'd give us lots of money. And then I could buy lots of wine again...
If we did that, we'd be arrested for sure!
Oh? Why?
Look, you just leave this to me...
Don't you think we should act sometime soon?
We're not gonna catch Lupin serving under a man this incompetent...
Right! Whatever he does, he's a bumbling, blockheaded nincompoop.
And he farts every now and then too. I can't stand it anymore.
Vehicles coming up!
Get them to share some oil and water with us, in a polite way, that is.
Oh, we'll handle it.
Hey! What do you think you're doing?
Uh, no, you mustn't think this is a challenge to the Kuwaiti army...
...or anything like that.
You can walk home!
HEY!
Just a passing fancy. Excuse us.
Hey! Wait for me!
Hey! Hey!
Give me the lion statue! If you resist, you'll die!
You bastard!
Eat that! What the?!
Wh...What the?!
Looks like the Kuwaiti Army's making its entrance...
I don't know why, though.
I will make them settle up. Charge into them.
OK, you're on!
OK, go!
You bungled it, huh, Goemon?
No, not at all.
Wow, that was too close, Goemon. You're the best.
How'd you know she was in there?
I cannot cut flowers with Zantetsuken.
I guess this is what they call "Mysteries of the Orient".
Hey Lupin! Give yourself up quietly!
I won't shoot! I promise I won't shoot! So pull that jeep over right N..!
Hey, Policewoman Zakskaya! Hold your fire!
Hold it, I said! Hey, wh...wh...what're you doing? Knock it off!
Has his throat been torn out?
Has his head been twisted off?
Or have his ribs been broken?
You be quiet! Come on! There there there! Out of my way!
Sights aligned. Fire!
So sorry, old man. This car is amphibious!
Oh yeah? So's this!
Tanks in general are...
Damn you, Lupin!
Oh, uh, I thought it might hit them by chance.
What's this? We mustn't despair! Faith! We must have faith!
Dammit! Sink! Sink, you hear? Sink!
I'm sinking!
GOEMON, COME BACK!
Lupin!
Grr!
Hey, Fujiko, get away from him! Don't you wrap yourself around him!
She's hit on some big-time Kuwaiti millionaire...
Her plan seems to be to travel the world on a luxury liner...
...while getting the treasure off her hands.
Well, something like that, I guess.
Aren't you annoyed, Lupin?
Not in the least!
Fujiko, I'm sure, will undoubtedly stick her nose into our next big job.
Hm...? Our next big job?
Yeah, the continuation of this affair.
The treasure of Babylon couldn't be something that small!
There's a much, much bigger one.
What?!
It finally came to me in a flash where it is.
Hmm... Where?
New York.
What did you say?!
Wh...What the?!
Fujiko, suppose you carry out your promise.
Promise?
What is it?
The Lupin gang are back in New York.
What! What are they doing here?
Obviously, they're here to take back the treasure!
Yo, people! It's me.
I've come back to Manhattan! But don't misunderstand me.
I'm not going to lay a finger on your treasure.
So you stay awat from us too. Got that? Understand?!
Hmph. Prattle while you can.
Ha! You horse's-ass!
KILL HIM!
KILL HIM! KILL HIM!
I won't give it up! I won't give it up to anyone!
Mama...
Here we go again...
Junior said it three times. "Kill him, kill him, kill him." Do as he says.
W...W...We understand.
Mike, you got anything to say?
Pl...Please, spare me.
Is that all you have to say?
I beg you! Pl...Please, spare me.
Twice you failed to kill Lupin. Your third failure was Jigen Daisuke.
You got right next to him and you couldn't finish him off, huh?
Don't move! There's a fly on your ass!
Dispose of him.
There's one huge cavern down here too!
Look, Jigen! Real gold bars!
Huh? What the?!
We'we struck it rich!
Are you saying this is the Gold of Babylon?!
Lupin, you all right?
Uh-huh.
So how'd you know this was it, anyway?
Oh, that. I noticed that the Manhattan Inscriptions...
...were distributed in a circular manner.
I simply thought that something might be found if we dug at the center.
I tried the theory that the cuneiforms engraved on their faces...
...went flying out like engraving plates.
Ah, I see.
So that solves the inverse characters mystery.
The Golden Tower of Babel was transported intact...
...from the ruins of Babylon to here.
Who transported it?
I dunno, I dunno.
How in hell could they possible move it, 2500 years ago?
I dunno, I tell you!
But, as said earlier, whether it's aliens or gods...
...those things you hate may well show up!
Heh! Now I want a drink.
Time's running out, Jigen.
Time?
The aliens'll be coming to pick this up soon.
What?!
What did you say?
Old Lady Rosetta said it: "Every 76 years, stand atop the shining Tower of Babel."
Isn't there a comet that passes by here every 76 years?
Halley's comet?
Halley's Comet is closest to Earth at 11:00 PM tomorrow night.
25 hours from now.
Just thinking that these are all solid gold depresses me.
You said it. It all seems stupid somehow.
This should be enough. We'we got plenty.
Two boatloads, huh.
Yeah, And I'd appreciate a glassful more.
You got a point there.
Hey, Sam, long time no see.
I have once again cut something worthless.
Oh, this is pitiful!
Should you really be in a place like this? The 76th year is tomorrow.
You know by now, don't you? Where the shining tower is.
It's Madison Square Garden.
I see! Thank you!
Fujiko's been captured at Marciano's place!
What?!
Take care of this for me!
Fujiko! FUJIKO!
"Open Sesame!"
Fujiko!
We've been waiting for you, Lupin!
Drop the piece.
Don't you see this?
This is a very powerful bomb.
If I squeeze it just a little, everything within 100 meters will go sky-high.
Quit bluffing. I'm quite familiar with your tricks.
When it comes to Fujiko...
...you won't do anything that will endanger her, now will you?
Watch! This is the end of the Marciano Outfit!
As of today, I run Manhattan.
I designed this building, together with his father...
...but I know of a much more interesting place.
Let me show it to you... as your last view of the world.
I'm sorry.
A black river runs through the lowest level of Manhattan's bedrock.
Now you'll join all the other worms that have been executed here.
What is this place?
Inside the Tower of Babel. The Golden Tower of Babel, that is.
This is a view you don't get to see very often!
Old Lady Rosetta's smart too. She's probably already here.
I've got no idea at all what's going on.
Hey, explain it to me, Lupin.
It is said that once upon a time. God collected all the gold in Babylonia...
...and had humans make it into a tower.
God came riding in a comet, and took that tower high into the sky.
However, for some reason, along the way God dropped the tower.
It was an uninhabited land.
2000 years later, people lived and loved there...
...and it became a town called New York.
And that's the story.
This is the tower of Babel?
Why...?
Why did God try to steal the gold?
He likes it.
What would he use it for?
He'd use it for money, don't you think?
Huh? God uses money too?
Indeed he does.
What does he use it for?
To buy the things he wants.
What does he do when he buys the thing he wants?
He gobbles them up!
Save me, Lupin!
Ouch!
Excuse me for being first!
I'm all out.
Fujiko... are you all right?
Hey, how do you think they'll move it?
Move what?
The Gold of Babylon!
Huh? Why don't we think about it while we look at the stars?
"God" is an alien, is that it?
Uh-huh.
The Golden Tower of Babel is going to the sky... What a waste!
What a magnificent sight!
Are you just gonna suck your thumb and watch it, Lupin?
STOP THIEF!
Whaddaya say, Lupin? "Render unto Caesar that which is Caesars's!"
Yes! It belongs to humans! It belongs to me!
Thank you, Lupin. I'm an alien.
There are those who have also called me a goddess.
I was sent to Earth to search for the lost Tower of Babel.
Only once every 76 years do I have a chance to go back.
It's been so long.
I get it, so you had me search for this thing, right?
Yes. What neither Alexander the Great, Napoleon...
...nor even Hitler was able to do, you have done.
Thank you.
This belongs to me! I'm not giving it to you people!
I love you.
It would've been better if I ddn't.
It's my destiny to return to my planet.
Goodbye, Lupin.
It would be amusing to try to accompany her to the ends of the universe.
Pardon me!
"Render unto Caesar that wich is Caesar's..."
"...and unto the Earth that wich is the Earth's..."
I feel refreshed!
Lupin.
What, Fujiko?
Stu-pid.
Huh...?
Now you're at a loss, huh, Lupin?
This time for sure, I'll lock you up, take you to Tokyo...
So long. Old Man! Take care!
Are you all waiting for Lupin?
No! That know-nothing Zenigata!
COME ON, GOE--!
Oh, the Tower of Babel has fallen apart!
Don't worry. We'll just have Rosetta search for it again, right?
I can't wait 76 years!
Lupin, I'll bet on you.
