Episode 16 Story

Senku and his team bought time from Stanley’s group using the lab car decoy operation, and successfully secured rubber — an essential material for building motorcycles. With everyone working together at full speed, they completed six bikes in record time! They managed to evade Stanley’s pursuing forces and achieved a stunning victory in the breakout operation. Meanwhile, Senku relayed a mission to Nikki and the others in Corn City: to analyze the mechanism of the petrification device. They awakened a skilled engineer for the dismantling task, and at last, they’re closing in on uncovering the secrets behind the petrification device!
