A transcript of part 8 of juicedup14 playthrough/translation of Kirigiri Sou, which you can watch here.

Again thanks to @drmedicsgamesurgery​ for helping me work on the transcript.

In that room, the walls and the ceiling were all lined with glass. All over the place were plants growing. It seems like it’s a greenhouse.

“Captain……why sacrifice yourself for someone like me……”

In the silence of the room, Kyouka falls to her knees.

“How am I supposed to go on fighting now!?”

“He was too good for this world……”

Kirigiri with crossed arms closed her eyes.

“What should we do now……”

And then the iron door opens from the outside, and Shikiba calmly walks into the room with a tattered white coat.

“You’re alive!?”

“Yeah, the explosion was kinda weak.”

In terms of story he’s supposed to stay dead……

“I know what you wanna say, I know, but just leave it. We need to think of a plan.”

“Uh, okay……”

We huddle around, in the center of the greenhouse with an odd atmosphere.

“Listen, my attack only stopped them for a little bit, I don’t think they’ve given up on their invasion. They’re probably going to finish the Earth tonight.”

“It’s our last battle, isn’t it?”

Kyouka said.

“Yes. The future of the world, will depend on whether we or they win.”

“But……do we even have a chance of winning? We can’t even shoot down a UFO……”

I hang my head and said.

“Kirigiri-kun, other than shooting down the UFO, is there any other way for us to win?”

Shikiba asks.

“It’s not very realizable……but there’s one.”

“What is it?”

“To wipe out all of the Rhinogradentia on the Earth.”

“I see! But……that’s kind of difficult.”

It seems a bit more realizable than shooting down the UFO……but it didn’t feel like the time to say that so I stayed quiet.

“I guess it’s unavoidable.”

Shikiba stands up suddenly and says.

“What is it?”

“This is our last move, we don’t have time to think about it. It’s time to pull out our trump card! The【﻿Ａｂｓｏｌｕｔｅ Ｂｏｍｂ Ｃｏｎｅ】mission, I call it ABC mission for short.”

“ABC mission……?”

Is it some sort of super secret weapon!?

“In order to reach the end of it, I’ve been preparing and preparing over and over. What do you think I’ve been putting all my effort and blood into, for this whole year?”

“I don’t know……”

“Let’s gather the pinecones.”

“What?”

“Gather the pinecones.”

“Yeah, no I heard you but……what do you mean?”

“Listen, the ABC mission’s strategy. We’ll divert all of the Rhinogradentia into the mansion, as much as we can. And we’ll fill the whole place with Rhinogradentia. And then when they’re all in here-”

“Wait……so by gathering the pinecones you’ll?”

“That’s right. Then we’ll throw the pinecones!”

“Wait, could it be that pinecones are their weakness?”

“No, that’s not it. Pinecones have a lot of pine resin, or turpentine, inside of them, and they’re easy to burn. They’re nature’s lighter, as they’re called. But the ones that I’ve collected are genetically modified, and they’re special types of pinecones. They’re kind of like incendiary bombs with great firepower. They have the explosive power of hand grenades as well. If we spread these all around the mansion and then light a fire, what do you think would happen? Right, Explosion!”

“So you’re gonna burn down this whole mansion with them in it, aren’t you?”

With an impressed expression, Kirigiri said that.

“But how are we going to run away?”

“There’s a back door here.”

Shikiba pushes on the glass wall.

And that one part turns into a door, and leads outside. Although it’s quite high up on the second floor, if we jump down from here we’ll be able to escape.

“Good. Let’s go with that plan.”

Kirigiri nods. At the same time Kyouka nods as well, so for the meantime I do the same thing.

“But……this mission has one problem.”

“What?”

“The special pinecones are in the first floor laboratory. It’s on the other side of where the reception room door is, across from the door. Someone has to go get them.”

“Well let’s go get them!”

Kyouka stands up and says.

“No, I can’t let you go so easily. There’s probably many Rhinogradentia crawling around on the first floor.”

“Then what should we……”

“I’ll go get them. Divert them, and open up a path. And then the ones from outside are to follow as well.”

“But, but! That’s too dangerous captain.”

“This mission is my biggest accomplishment. Only I can do it.”

I can see the resolve from his eyes.

I don’t think he can be stopped. I should leave it to him.

((From here juicedup14 skips a chunk of content so we tried our best to restore the rest. Please forgive us of the rough translations with some liberties taken.))

“Let’s take advantage of the captain’s opening and retrieve the pinecones ourselves.”

Kirigiri said. Was she going to use Captain Shikiba as a distraction instead?

“Okay. Now here is the final mission. You go to the lab on the first floor and grab the pinecones. Then I will return immediately and throw the pinecones while hiding back here. Then we will set fire to and burn them, while we escape through the secret door. Capiche?”

“Got it.”

“I am afraid that this is our last battle. I’m glad I can be fighting this glorious battle with you to the very end.”

“Captain…!”

“Ok, Let’s do this!”

Shikiba burst through the door.

“Oorah! “ ((SANTAAAAAAAA SHIKIBAA))

Shikiba roared and rushed out.

The Rhinogradentia that were waiting in the corridors started their attack, and chased Shikiba. After confirming all the Rhinogradentia had left, we ran out of the room and rushed to the stairs. The staircase was in ruins because of the previous explosion.

We jumped from the of the broken bricks and just barely got down.

Kyouka and Kirigiri landed like they were used to this sort of event.

They must be quite flexible.

I, on the other hand, didn’t have as much luck.

I landed on my foot badly, and felt a sharp pain go through it.

It turns out there were still some Rhinogradentia left here that did not chase Shikiba, after all. These ones were not as big as the ones from before.

They saw us and rushed toward us.

“Ignore them, and run!”

Kyouka rapidly dashed away.

However, after running just a few steps, I heard the sound of Kyouka smashing into the ground. The machine gun she was holding also dropped to the floor.

“Are you ok!?”

I ran over and helped her to her feet.

“Yes, Sorry.”

At this point, a Rhinogradentia ran toward us.

A. I immediately picked up the machine gun from the ground and pulled the trigger.

B. I immediately hit them with a barrage of kicks.
