Ep. 9: Cherry lures Lupin to a Brazil auction for Zeke Barbatos' treasure, leading to a search for the Jet-Black Diamond.
Treasure hunter Cherry invites Lupin to an underground auction in Brazil for items belonging to pirate Zeke Barbatos, active 75 years ago. The loot supposedly includes the Jet-Black Diamond and Venus Ruby. Lupin acquires a kokeshi doll from an elderly woman, steals it, and returns it to obtain a map fragment, but Fujiko intercepts the pieces to find the diamond herself. The woman, her granddaughter, and Fujiko travel to Brazil, followed by Jigen and Goemon, while Lupin remains in London and sends a drone. The elderly woman is revealed to be Cherry, sister of Sakura, Zeke's lover who died after his execution. At a tree that blooms every 75 years under the full moon, Cherry leaves the dolls as a memorial, rejecting the treasure. Fujiko digs for the diamond but finds only pepper, which was known as the Jet-Black Diamond due to its value 75 years ago.
