Sly Cooper (narrating): After a careful analysis of Dr. M's fortress, Bentley came to the difficult conclusion that his demolition skills just weren't gonna be enough. If we wanted to get inside the Cooper Vault, we'd have to recruit a full-time demolitions specialist. However, Bentley's proposed candidate was a shock: Y/N's and my old enemy, the Panda King. As a member of the original Fiendish Five, he had a part in taking out my dad and stealing pages from the Thievius Raccoonus. He also was involved in attacking Y/N and his family as well. Eventually, I caught up with him and I claimed back what he had stolen. There was no way I was gonna let that monster on my team, but Bentley was firm. He discovered the Panda King had left his life of crime and was now a monk living the life of quiet meditation high up in the mountains. I wasn't at all convinced, but there was no denying that he had the skills we needed if we were to succeed. So, the gang packed up, put on our disguises, and headed east to China

Sly Cooper and the Gang in

A Cold Alliance

After traveling to China, the Cooper Gang search for the Panda King. Luckily Sonar sweeps through the mountains and manages to spot the former criminal meditating in a shrine. He returns to Y/N who tells Sly his location. So they follow Sonar towards the outskirts of the Shrine.

Sly Cooper: Stay sharp, team... for all we know the Panda King is just as dangerous as ever.

Bentley: How can you say that? Just look at him, have you ever seen someone more at peace with the world?

Sly Cooper: I'll admit, he does look kinda "zenned out."

Bentley: Uh... Mr. King? Honorable Panda King, we humbly wish to speak with you.

Sly Cooper: I guess he doesn't want to talk. Sorry, Bentley, let's go.

Sly is about to turn and leave when Y/N grabs him by his collar.

Y/N: Sorry, Sly. You're not going anywhere.

Bentley: Be realistic, Sly, he's clearly in a deep meditative trance. Hmmm, it'll take some doing, but I think I see a way to get the team up to his shrine.

Murray: Good! The walk up here tired me out. I don't wanna turn around now. Man, I miss the van... we never had to walk anywhere back then.

Sly Cooper: Okay, okay, let's just get this over with.

Y/N: I knew we had encountered with him long ago, Sly, but it's in the past. We'll need someone with powerful explosives if we're going to get into the Cooper Vault. He is the only one who can do it.

Bentley: Murray, you're up first. If you can get to the top of that pillar, you should be able to use your ball move to bounce all the way up to the Panda King.

Murray: Okay... bouncing is a lot easier than more walking. Seriously, do you guys wanna see my blisters?

Y/N: Hell no, Murray!

Penelope: No way!... Is he serious?

The Guru: (speaks Aboriginal)

Murray: Yeah, okay, master. Bouncing, pillars, piece of cake!

(Murray leaps off the cliff.)
