Dr. Stone: Stone Wars Episode 9 Spoilers
Episode 8 begins with a flashback to Senku’s revival. Before what is supposed to be the final battle, he and Taiju look back on everything that has gotten them to this point, including the year-long separation. Meanwhile, while mourning for presumably dead Yo, Tsukasa finds Senku’s telephone and starts to get an inclination of what is happening. With his exceptional hearing, Ukyo keeps a tap on Tsukasa and Hyoga while the rest of the Kingdom of Science begin their work.
Gen, Senku, and Chrome run through most of the traps that the Empire of Might has built in front of the Miracle Cave with Steam Gorilla before getting toppled on the last one. Magma and Chrome use the sonic-canon bomb to take out a group of Tsukasa’s associates. After losing one of the sonic bombs, Taiju uses his voice against the copper amplifier to create a makeshift bomb, which neutralizes the last line of defense.
While the Kingdom of Science completes the mission in 20 seconds as they wanted to, Tsukasa and Hyoga arrive with reinforcement. A jab from Hyoga’s spear severely wounds Ukyo. The episode ends as Senku goes to fetch the revival fluid while Tsukasa and associates attack the Kingdom of Science’s determined members. In episode 9, the conflicting ideologies that Senku and Tsukasa represent will be tested against each other as both sides desperately fight for dominance.
