Clayman recruits Ban and Ginji to retrieve the arms of the Venus de Milo, a sculpture of Aphrodite, to solve a historical mystery. The arms are scheduled for auction on an island to a mafia. Meanwhile, Hera and Mouen Ryuu discuss a replica on a cruise ship, planning to broadcast the reattachment for fame. Hera meets Natsuhiko Miroku, hired to protect the arms. The GetBackers are tricked by Emishi but escape using Jagan. They encounter Akabane, a hired Transporter, and hide in a wine cask to board the ship. They are discovered by assassins Shakuryuu and Hyouku. Ginji boards while Ban fights, but the assassins flee in a motorboat. Ban attempts to jump aboard but is repelled by Natsuhiko’s sword and falls into the ocean.
