Goodness.
It looks like I need to send you to Wunder Bender at least once, Juzo.
Engineer
That power was far beyond what I have heard.
It seems we must rethink our stance against Gun Slave Units.
Looks like we won't be able to track down his real body from this sub-brain...
This case...
Victor was holding it.
The smell of extension grease.
That means, inside of this...
I see!
So that small extension was stored inside.
It looks like that sub-brain is a normal one.
Since that isn't a parallel sub-brain, that isn't your real body.
I surmise that must be an extra remote body for you.
However, it seems you are still not quite used to controlling it.
Your movements have gotten quite slow.
Victor... No.
The other Victor, I presume?
Though you were quite rough with her earlier, it seems you still treasure your sister.
How dull.
Even so, this is why capturing Extendeds is so troublesome.
Even if we catch the suspect,
there is always a mountain of paperwork necessary to prove their identity.
There's really nothing more troublesome.
Don't you think so as well?
Mr. Inui.
Juzo!
I thought you strait-laced types believed in staying unaltered.
Those movements just now...
Looks like you've had some extension work done.
Have you heard of the Ampullae of Lorenzini?
They are receptors found on shark skin
that can sense weak electrical fields emitting from living creatures.
I have a similar type of sensor installed all over my skin.
Mary!
Juzo!
I lack the power to suppress either of you.
However, even with my eyes closed,
I can easily sense your movements and evade your attacks.
It may not look like it, but I go all out to increase my merit.
Seems like it.
If you understand, may I ask for your assistance?
Lead me to your real body. Right now.
Mary!
It's simple.
We have no way of defeating one another.
Yet, we both have something we want.
Doesn't this seem like a perfect chance for a mutually beneficial trade?
Seriously... Every single one of you...
You're all trying to get in the way of my job!
Juzo.
I understand your feelings.
However, this is a negotiation between him and me.
Even though you are a Gun Slave Unit,
you are too wounded to get your hands into this situation.
Not that you have any hands...
I can't believe someone like me made such a dull remark.
My apologies.
You're right.
That joke ain't funny.
The grand ideals I had when I agreed to this body...
I forgot that kind of shit a long time ago.
Even so, there's one thing I've never doubted.
That reason!
It wasn't so I could just sit here, unable to protect a single woman!
Deployment of skeletal lamination compression, configuration zero.
This is Juzo's true form?!
Functional diagnosis complete.
Damage extensive. Protective...
Damage extensive.
Protective smokescreen dispersed.
Emergency brachial supplementation initiated.
Supplement!
Juzo!
Juzo, are you going against the program?
Brachial connection manually released.
Brachial... released.
Skeletal lamination compression, secondary release.
Release!
Vertebral coupling bay. TH03 changed to 04.
Vertebral... changed!
Spare arm connection procedure initiated.
Initiated... nerve...
Nerve synchronization automatically adjusted.
This is bad.
I'm losing consciousness.
I-I've already told you!
Smokescreens have no effect on me!
This is!
So many electrical signals around us!
E-Even so, I still have a hostage!
What?!
You!
You're lucky these arms have just been connected and have no power behind them.
What in the world were you thinking?!
In order to confuse Avi, he dismantled his own arm and scattered them about?
You're lucky I forced the program to shut down.
What were you going to do if you went berserk without a Hands?
Stopping that is the job of a personal engineer.
What did you say?
I don't know anything about you,
but the guy your personality came from would've said something like that.
The EMS, huh?
They really don't know how to read the mood.
What are you planning to do?
It's your job to finish things with him, right?
Don't worry. I can at least earn us some time.
Wait, Juzo!
Drop your weapons and surrender!
Wha?! This guy!
Substitute Director Avi!
Didn't I tell you? Don't get involved with Extendeds.
You have Victor's memories, don't you?
Even if that's true, so what?
Please tell me.
When he left that house, what happened between him and the old man?
You knew he was looking for a successor.
Even so, I told him that I wanted to join the military as an engineer.
At the time, all extension technology was researched in the military.
When I said that, he told me he would sell your body if I did leave.
To be honest, I don't really remember what happened after that.
Before I realized it, that man was already caught up in the winch.
That's all.
It wasn't something I had planned to do, but I don't regret how it turned out.
No way...
But!
Why didn't you say anything to me?!
Why did you leave me behind?!
I loved you very much.
At the same time, I was completely enthralled by extension technology.
I was driven by my mission to promote extension technology to the world.
I thought I would be able to empower those who had lost the things they treasured.
But it was a forbidden power.
Extension technology not only changed their body,
but changed their soul to something inhuman...
You've seen it yourself as an engineer, haven't you?
Extendeds that fall into madness!
I wanted to confirm it all.
The significance of extension technology.
The nature of Extendeds.
That's why you helped Spitzbergen and provoked Juzo?!
It's funny.
Before I realized it, I had become a monster known as the Dismantler, myself.
I've passed the point of no return.
I can't stop until the Extendeds that I have created are all destroyed.
Why?
Then... why were you trying to look inside of Juzo?
That...
It's true.
You just took a part of Victor's thought pattern and expanded on it!
It's true that I am like a copy of Victor.
But I am me.
You're wrong!
Even if you share Victor's thoughts, you aren't Victor!
Maybe I didn't really understand Victor.
But there is one thing I'm sure of!
When Victor disappeared,
I wanted to know the reason so badly that I became an engineer.
I copied him as I remembered him
so I could understand his feelings as much as I could.
There was even a time when I felt pride in my work.
But I realized it one day.
Even if they lose something and fall into despair in the moment,
humans have the strength to support what they've lost with something else.
The only thing that extension technology and engineers can do...
...is give them a small push forward.
I'm sure it's true that Victor saw the battlefield
and realized the dangers of extension technology.
But when listening to Lefty...
When I listened to Victor, I confirmed it.
The real Victor had also realized this.
His thinking that his skills made people stronger. It was his own hubris.
You! How can an unaltered person like you understand Extendeds?!
I do.
I just have to look at their faces.
Do you really have nothing to do other than to cause trouble?
You're really too much.
You...
However, you're not the one I have business with today.
What in the world...?
In your impatience to capture Victor,
you are under suspicion of working with Spitzbergen.
I'll hear your excuses back at the office, ex-substitute EMS director, Avi.
Olivier! You bitch! What right do you have...?
Take him away.
You should take this chance to run.
If you get caught by the EMS, they'll use your sub-brain to find Victor's body.
I still have more to say to you, too.
Now, I've changed the wiring of your arm.
You won't be able to do naughty things like before.
Just now?!
And let me check one thing.
The hostages. Where are they?
They're safe, right?
You don't have to worry about the hostages.
The child would probably be safer if he stayed with them.
What do you mean by that?
Your hair. Looks like you're able to braid it yourself now.
I still wish you never became an engineer.
You've become a more respectable one than me.
Victor...
Victor, someday, with my own hands...
There's no need to be scared.
It's just a bit. Just a little bit!
Lefty, prepare yourself!
Ah! Wait! Hey!
Ouch....
What in the world are you doing?
I wanted to take a quick peek inside Lefty...
Are siblings all so similar like this?
Did you say something?
What will you be able to figure out by examining him?
Lefty is just a left-hand part without a sub-brain, so we can't see his logs...
He has the intelligence of a dog.
We can't talk with him, and it may be impossible for him to take us to Victor...
...but I'm really interested in how he can move so independently!
So that's it.
Well, we have no choice but to patiently look for Victor.
First, you need to let yourself heal up.
You can't replace a human body like you can mine.
I know that. But--
Don't worry about them.
What are you planning to do?
Come in.
How are you feeling, Master Tetsuro?
What is the meaning of this?
I heard that Harmony would interfere with getting my own voice back.
That's why I...
That must have been quite inconvenient.
I am glad I got the best engineer that I knew to take care of it.
I'd like to ask you one thing.
Anything you wish.
I barely have any memories of you.
However, I do know that name.
Well, there is no one in this country who doesn't know of you.
Professor Wachowski.
The father of extension technology.
You developed Extendeds during the great war and brought victory to the country.
It is an exaggeration to call me as such.
I was merely one of the researchers that developed the base theory of extensions.
Why is someone like you helping terrorists like this?!
I could pose the same question to the son of Berühren's CEO, Master Tetsuro.
There is no way I'd do such a thing!
Even if you've lost your memory, the facts will not change.
If... If that were true, why would I do something like that?!
That is not something I would know for sure.
However, Berühren's treatment of you says it all.
The fact that you support Spitzbergen is true.
And, as our supporter, we only wish of one thing from you.
The Gun Slave Unit working with Berühren, also known as Seven.
He has become a great obstacle in our activities.
However, only a Gun Slave Unit can go against another Gun Slave Unit.
You wish to use us as hostages to have Juzo eliminate that Gun Slave Unit?
It is just as you say.
However, not quite right.
Inui Juzo currently has no chance of beating Seven.
You don't seem convinced.
However, I know everything about Juzo Inui... Device 13.
For a Gun Slave Unit to fully function,
they must give up their will and fully become a tool.
Tool?!
We would like you to use Harmony to pull out his true form, Master Tetsuro.
We have been keeping a tab on all of those close to you.
We will ensure their safety as long as you cooperate with us.
You have the data, don't you?
We'll get them by surprise this time.
Uh, did you want to get a cut?
I mean, Juzo is super dense.
Just a shampoo.
