Lupin and his pals pull a heist on Machine Gun Kelly, a casino cruise rumored to be a front for money-laundering by the Mafia, near the coast of San Francisco. After their heist is botched at the hands of Zenigata and his assistant Inspector Terry Crown, Lupin reveals to his comrades that he did steal something valuable from the cruise: computer data containing the coordinates of the Yankee Slade, a 19th-century carrier that sank with countless gold bars in tow after a heavy storm. Unfortunately, the wreckage is nearly 20,000 feet below the surface, and the coastal tides are too strong to reach the shipwreck with a conventional submarine. Whilst they try to figure out a solution, however, they are ambushed by mafia members, leading to Lupin being captured in the process. After he's saved by Jigen, they quickly learn that they have crossed paths with a criminal organization called Secret 7, who are somehow connected with the island Alcatraz, the Yankee Slade treasure, and a major political conspiracy that remained unsolved for decades.

* CelebrityParadox: At one point, Lupin likens Zenigata to Film/DirtyHarry. Lupin's previous Japanese voice actor Creator/YasuoYamada was Creator/ClintEastwood's regular dub actor.



* FakingTheDead: After Lupin is successfully put into prison (not Alcatraz) by Zenigata, Terry visits his cell, supposedly kills him and puts the Derringer in his hand to make it look like suicide. What Terry didn't know is that during the struggle before the kill, Lupin switched the bullet in the Derringer with a blank and then made use of fake blood and very convincing make-up to make it look like the bullet did kill him. Zenigata, of course, sees through [[NeverSuicide the whole charade]] and makes use of it to have a private talk with him [[WakingUpAtTheMorgue in the morgue]].

* InelegantBlubbering: Zenigata falls into this when Lupin tells him the true reason he keeps on thieving is because the fact that he's his most WorthyOpponent keeps motivating him into doing what he does best.



* OcularGushers: Zenigata falls into this when Lupin tells him the true reason he keeps on thieving is the fact that Zanigata's his most WorthyOpponent and he keeps motivating him into doing what he does best.
-->'''Lupin:''' Sheesh. You cry at anything, Pops.
